I would work with the Quake Mobile DJ every time I needed the service.....oh.....and most importantly.....they are GOOD people!!! Highly recommend contacting them for your next event.

I booked Dj Phil for my husbands 40th birthday and he did not disappoint! He was professional and…read moreeasy to work with. He responded promptly to all of my questions and made the whole process easy. We wanted old school/funk jams but wanted to keep it clean. He read the room really well. When dining it was nice background music and when the party started we never left the dance floor! He had all the best jams for our crowd which was a range of 30-70 year olds. Dj Phil elevated the atmosphere and made my first time booking a Dj a breeze. I also didn't feel any pressure from him. You can tell he just enjoys what he does. He kept the energy flowing and was very friendly with all of our friends and family. He was very knowledgeable about different cultures and the type of music is preferred. We had black, Hispanic, white, and Asian people in our crowd and everyone vibed with the music. He put together a great mix. Will book him again in the future for sure. Absolutely no complaints or issues...

He was fun,…read moreprofessional, and went above and beyond to make the day special, even doing duties that didn't fall within his purview (like making sure sparkling cider was served for the toasts). His musical selection was A+ and everyone thought he kept the vibes positive and upbeat. He was lovely to interact with, joking with us and our guests in a way that made everyone feel comfortable, relaxed, and laughing. I loved having him lead the charge for the audio whether it was music, speeches, or announcements. I'd recommend him without reservation. We were particular about music and he was flexible and accommodating. You're the best, DJ Phil!

Besides being very interactive and fun and getting people to have fun (even the non drinkers lmao), I was impressed by how much equipment they brought. I didn't get to see the setup or breakdown but dang, it was very professional and impressive for a local DJ company. I've been to several weddings and I've really learned that the dj can make or break a wedding. George and his guys are obviously experienced and really knew how to run the whole night. I've never been to a wedding this fun.

He was sympathetic of our situation and managed to squeeze us in despite his busy schedule. He's courteous and professional, we processed the deposit and the contract the same day. He's very responsive, and we're excited to not have to worry about finding a dj anymore. Everything was quick, and we're excited to see how everything turns out!

Would not recommend this DJ…read more He did not show up to our wedding, and we only found out about an hour before our ceremony after we repeatedly called and texted him. There was absolutely no communication from him before our wedding or afterward. We requested a refund multiple times through text and Zelle and never received a response or a refund. To make matters worse, he blocked me on Instagram instead of addressing the situation. A wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime event, and couples deserve reliability, professionalism, accountability, and communication. Unfortunately, that was not our experience.

On top of that, when it was time to leave, everything had been put in the car that we wanted to take home, and we just went away happy!! I highly recommend Nicki.

AWESOME!!! Ok, so, My wife and I hired DJ Dave and his wife for our wedding on 10/12/13 at the Evergreen Lodge in Yosemite. We were so incredibly happy with the services they provided. From the first day we hired him he was so professional, was on time for all of his meetings, and since we lived in different cities he set up phone meetings with us at our convenience. I will be 100% honest with you. I was concerned at first about having a DJ at all. I wanted absolutely no cheese and no blah blah on the microphone at my wedding. DJ Dave was very excited and talkative at the first meeting and he had tons of ideas, many of which I was not interested in. BUT! He was so receptive to my thoughts and my desires for my wedding. He ONLY cares about what YOU want. He has tons of ideas and extras that can make a splash if that's what you want, but he will also thoughtfully consider YOUR vision and he will advise you that you should NEVER let any vendors force their visions on you. It's YOUR day :) Seriously, we dealt with a lot of different vendors and got married near Yosemite where phones and internet aren't always as accessibly as you would want in 2013 and Dave was BY FAR the most professional, accessible, and easy to deal with vendor we dealt with. And they are beyond reasonably priced!!!

I first saw Ray (the owner) DJ at my friends wedding about 2 years ago, and my fiance and I knew we had to have him as our DJ at our wedding! He was actually the first vendor we booked for our wedding since we wouldn't have settled for anything less. NorCal Event Specialists were extremely professional, and met with myself and the venue manager to explain everything, and offer additional ideas. The lighting that they provided was truly out of this world. Our venue was fine to begin with, but the lighting enhanced the ambiance of the room beyond my wildest dreams. Our guests were in awe of how beautiful our venue looked. I wanted to create a different wedding experience for my guests and NorCal Event Specialists made that happen. Of course the DJ services were also on point. The fact that the dance-floor was never empty was the main indication that Ray & his crew totally rocked the party! They literally had to throw us off the dance-floor lol. If you are having any sort of event - please hire these guys and don't forget to invite me ;)

We reached out to Thistle, they were 100% responsive at first and we had a productive first…read moremeeting. After we paid them a deposit, they were not accountable. We trusted them to plan and coordinate our wedding. From there things oddly started happening that were unprofessional. A few key incidents - They volunteered to reach out to our venue with a time sensitive contract on our behalf. We told them they didn't have to but we'd appreciate it, they never reached out. - All our meeting and planning notes were never emailed to us even after they promised to send them after the meeting. We emailed them numerous times to follow up, often times we didn't get a response. - Meetings were never scheduled on a calendar, leading to no shows and confusion by them as to what time it was supposed to be. We showed up to the few meetings that were scheduled, 2 were no shows. They even sent us a list of times to confirm, when the meeting time came they no showed "they mixed us up with another client" - We were promised a vendor list, we never received one but were told tomorrow every meeting. - The general theme was lack of follow up, meetings were productive but they mean nothing without action items. They barely sent us any materials. Finally, we broke the news kindly and outlined this explaining we'd like to terminate our contract with them. I did so politely as I wanted to offer constructive critique. I wasn't mad, I was simply explaining the unprofessional behavior with examples. The response from Thistle attached continued their unprofessionalism, and was insulting admitting that they neglected our wedding due to "being too busy" and proceeding to suggest other vendors. Initially, I didn't care about getting any portion of our deposit back as I wished them well and wanted them to be successful. But if you admit that you're too busy to service us, why don't you offer the deposit back? Why did you open your books to our wedding? The response was the sole reason I'm writing this review. A response back admitting we were neglected due to being busy was an unbelievable feeling as it confirmed our suspicions rather shamelessly. It seemed like they were relieved to get us off their plate after we paid. Nothing worse than saying what they did which is other people were more important, even though we paid them the same amount too. We were promised a lot, what we got in return was non communication, a email saying they were too busy and our wedding suffered as an end result. Plus suggestion of their friends in the industry to go book with which is odd. We would never work with any of their vendor recommendations, and it's ironic considering we asked them for tons of recommendations before that they never replied to. It seems they do fine by their other clients as they are busy per their words, wish we were treated with the same respect. They aren't bad people, maybe they didn't like our wedding idea, or maybe they didn't take us seriously as their other clients which is really disappointing.
