DJ Dais was an absolute standout at our wedding. From the start he was easy to work with and super accommodating. He got on multiple calls with us to make sure we were aligned, incorporated the Spotify playlists we put together for cocktail hour, dinner, and open dancing, and nailed exactly the vibe we were going for. He was equally on point for all the special moments like the wedding party entrance and grand entrance. He provided a helpful online form for us to fill out with all of our key details we wanted. What really impressed us was his dedication to the craft -- DJ Dais showed up hours early to get his lighting and speakers fully set up. And when it came to the reception, guests were on the dance floor all night. Highly recommended. read more

DJ Dais worked our wedding back in January and we couldn't be happier with the choice. From the day we reached out for a quote to the wedding day, DJ Dais was very friendly and very easy to work with. He was extremely communicative and was always available for a chat if we had any questions. And of course, he was a GREAT DJ on the wedding day and really kept in mind our song preferences but also put his own twist. The best part is that for our dances (first dance, mother/son, and father/daughter), I asked DJ Dais to edit the songs to only specific parts so that the transitions could be smooth and he absolutely delivered. DJ Dais was a great pleasure to work with and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ! read more

DJ Dais is amazing on all levels! Personable, friendly, engaging, professional and an amazing DJ! I hire him for all my community events and he kills it each time. Plays the best variety of music to appeal to all ages groups and is engaging with the guests. The kids love this! In addition he puts together an analysis of the event space and goes above and beyond to make sure the event has the best quality sound and equipment placement. Looking forward to many more events with DJ Dais! read more

Dj Dais is very professional, thoughtful, organized, courteous & kind. We had our wedding planned in April of 2020. Due to the pandemic we didn't have our reception. He was very understanding and recognized what circumstances we had to face with our venue cancelling. We initially reached out to him and he gladly refunded us our deposit. We would highly recommend DJ Dais! We would definitely re-book with him for our future reception when it is safe! Thank you for your kindness ! read more

I love working with DJ Dais. Having thoroughly appreciated his professionalism and appropriateness at the corporate event that I had planned in 2011, I decided to use him for my wedding this January. He was just as professional as he'd been the first time. He arrived super-early for setup on the day of the event, was easy to communicate with in the months leading up to the event and was very organized. I sent him the most disparate list of music (including 90s hip hop and R&B, disco, and ballroom dancing), and he managed to play all of it without sounding jumbled and confused - great transition choices! He also added to the mix based on our requests. I received numerous compliments on the music and lighting from our guests. Truly excellent and exactly what we wanted. There was one hiccup in the night, which was an error on the slideshow. He was so apologetic and offered repeatedly to refund the amount for that service. I'd recommend DJ Dais in a heartbeat. read more

DJ Dais and I met through the BNI Liaisons Chapter in Anaheim, CA this past year and I was honored to have him as a client for an event that he co-hosted called The Wedding Edge, an evening for brides in Laguna Beach. This past month, my company had retained a client to host Escalate Live 2010, a two-day live broadcast conference in Newport Beach at the historic Lido Theater for photographers. When we went to source a sound technician and production support professional for lighting and A/V needs, I immediately referred Dais as part of our production team. This event was no small feat, resulting in 36,000 views online with lots of positive buzz. His involvement helped make this production endeavor seamless and cost-effective. I was grateful that he was available for such a role despite it not being a standard offering of his services. DJ Dais was positive, helpful and hard working all throughout the event's production. It was so wonderful to have such an amazing player as part of our team and I'd recommend you to speak to him for your DJ and event support needs. read more

My husband & I could not have asked for a better wedding DJ! From the very beginning, not only was he straightforward on his pricing and what services would be included in each package, but he also spent a great deal of time listening to what we wanted and asking us thought-provoking questions along the way to be certain that he delivered the exact experience that we wanted. He was by far our most attentive vendor, taking the extra steps of 1) requesting a venue walk-through with us, 2) offering a touch-base phone call the week of the event for any of our questions/concerns, and 3) getting there early on the day-of to prepare his equipment. He is strategic and operational; however, he is also very good at explaining his work and making sure you understand how/ why he makes the decisions the way that he does. A few weeks before the big day, we decided on the song for our Father-Daughter dance. Since it was lengthy and had a mix of slow and fast tempo, I asked DJ Dais for some advice on whether or not it would make sense to shorten it or scrap the idea altogether. 2 hours later, he sent me an audio file with a sample of his first try at shortening the song, and BAM it was perfect! No changes needed. All of the music and MCing went very smoothly that day; he checked in with us a handful of times throughout the night to keep us on track and created a fun atmosphere for our guests. Near the end of the night I was pulled away from the dancefloor and returned right as one of my requested songs was ending - my friend quickly ran over and asked if he could play it again because the bride missed it and he immediately replayed it to my delight! For most of the reception, it seemed like 90% of our guests were on the dancefloor, which we had always wanted. We have received so many praises from our guests about how fun the music was - well done!!! Would absolutely recommend and hire again for our future events. read more

Dais is a true professional. From the onset of our communication, Dais made sure to ask questions and listen to what was important to us on our wedding day. He came up with solutions for everything we wanted, set clear expectations on both ends, joined us at the venue to coordinate logistics, kept us on task, and made sure we had everything worked out well in advance. On our actual wedding day, Dais was one of the first to arrive. He took care of all of the lighting and sound for the venue. Dais also managed the flow of the entire evening, providing smooth segues throughout every step of the event. When it was dance time, Dais showed the mastery of his craft on the turntables. His technical abilities are spot on and he's playful with his transitions between genres that probably shouldn't blend, but he makes it work so as to cater to a diverse audience. Having Dais as our DJ, I realized how integral a part of a wedding event, a DJ really is. A professional, like Dais, does way more at a wedding than one would realize. Basically, if everything runs smoothly, it's because there's a pro running things behind the scenes like Dais does. I wasn't big on spending money on linens or flowers, but having someone to ensure that the event would flow perfectly, was an excellent investment that provided me and my wife with peace of mind on our big day. read more

DJ Dais is AMAZING. He was our MC/DJ extraordinaire and did the lighting for our wedding reception a couple of weeks ago. He transformed an empty room into a beautifully warm and inviting reception area using LED uplights. When we initially met with DJ Dais, he took the time to speak with us about our vision and the type of lighting we would like. He was quick to respond to emails and provided us with sample photos when I had questions. Months after deciding on one of the wedding packages, we decided we needed to add more lighting since the venue had forewarned us that the reception area can be a tad dark if not properly lit. DJ Dais was accommodating and gave us suggestions on how to remedy any concerns. At the reception, he kept the pace of the events moving - there were no uncomfortable lulls but it didn't feel rushed. In addition, he had a ton of our guests on the dance floor - old and young alike. DJ Dais was prompt, incredibly professional, and was super helpful with suggestions when we needed them. We can't say enough good things about him and we highly recommend. read more

Dais was awesome! He got everyone on the dance floor and no one ever sat down (which is what I wanted). He was so easy to work with leading up to my October 1st wedding and was so understanding with coming to visit me rather than making me drive all the way down to see him. I could not have asked for a better wedding DJ! read more

Review for DJ Dais - Our Wedding DJ! My husband and I just got married in the Temecula area and had DJ Dais as our DJ. First off, we had spent weeks trying to find a DJ with not only positive feedback, but a decent price! I was shocked when I found all DJ Dais' reviews on WeddingWire and even more so when he put together a proposal for us. We got everything we wanted and such an amazing rate, weeellll under the outrageous $2,000+ DJ's you find in San Diego. Lights, Video Screens, Amazing Speakers, and PHENOMENAL MUSIC. From the very beginning, DJ Dais was really easy to work with, and never had to worry about him organizing all the details of our music. He is super organized - he ensures that all bridal party names are pronounced correctly and that your must-play list is absolutely played! He really knows how to read the crowd and keep everyone dancing. I was shocked at the number of family and friends, young and old were all partying on the dance floor. I've been to a few weddings, but seeing all of them dance and have a great time at mine, was by far the most amazing part of the night. I can speak for my husband and I, and say that DJ Dais is HIGHLY recommended and extremely talented! A true professional who genuinely cares about the ambiance and production of the biggest day of your life. Thanks again DJ Dais!! - Natacha and Sam read more

I had the privilege to work with Dais at my wedding a weeks back. Dais is a consummate professional who listened and executed all of our requests. Not only did he handle the ceremony and reception music, he also provided us with all of our reception lighting, including BoGO, and everything turned out amazing. Dais also had a great eye during our reception and played songs that kept the party going. He even stayed and played a little longer than initially agreed as he knew that the party was still going. I would highly recommend Daisuke for any special event. He is conscientious, communicates well and quickly, and truly has the experience to execute flawlessly. Thank you Dais for such an fantastic job on our very special day. read more

This review is long overdue, as DJ Dais provided DJ and lighting services for our wedding in San Clemente last year. He was very professional and informative during the whole planning process, always responding promptly to emails and making sure my questions or changes in plans were addressed. He even offered us a discount because I'm a teacher, which was well appreciated! His DJ'ing and lighting services were affordable and turned out great. The guests loved the music and overall ambiance of our wedding. We told Dais he could provide additional music beyond the songs on our list, depending on the guests' mood. He definitely got everyone up and on the dance floor! I can't recommend DJ Dais highly enough. read more

Dais had never done a Bar Mitzvah before or so he claimed, because you wouldn't know it, he was AMAZING! I provided a bit of a cheat sheet of Jewish songs and he ran with the rest. He got the crowd up from the very beginning and made the party the success it was. The kids loved him and he took all their requests and keep them on the dance floor, which shows a great DJ can play any party. Dais was very professional, a great communicator, was at the site in Woodland Hills hours early to set up and ready to go when the guests arrived. DO NOT HESITATE TO HIRE DAIS! Thank-you Dais for helping make our day that much more memorable! read more

Daisuke was by far one of the highlights of our wedding. Leading up to the event, Daisuke was always extremely responsive and very polite. I had a bunch of questions for him, but it never seemed to phase or bother him. He was exactly what we were looking for in a DJ - organized, not cheesy, and someone who understands music. Even when we were running behind schedule (due to transportation arriving late), Daisuke calmly came over and informed us about the timing and asked if it was okay if we sped things up. His professionalism and calm demeanor made it so that none of our guests knew we were running behind schedule, and no one reported feeling that our reception was rushed. In terms of his musicality, my dad, who teaches graduate music students, was thoroughly impressed. Daisuke has an incredible way of making transitions between songs seamless, you don't feel like you're being jerked around between songs and genres, even though he is incorporating a lot of styles! Daisuke also did the lighting for our reception facility and WOW! It was stunning! The walls were naturally a light gold, but we wanted a blue and silver theme. We asked Daisuke to use blue uplighting to cancel out the light gold walls and he did a phenomenal job setting it up. I would recommend Daisuke to anyone, and already have passed his name along to quite a few of our friends. You will not regret booking him, he'll make sure you're taken care of and feel calm and relaxed all night! read more

Dj Dais was not only an amazing talent with great equipment, but really blew me away at how much prep. work went in to helping my now wife and I plan out our wedding ceremony and reception. He was gracious in handling our venue's special requests and made really good suggestions that helped us pick our music and plan the night. Our crowd loved the music, which is tough due to the generation gaps that can happen at weddings, and he was very prompt in showing up for set up. I have also seen him play outside of weddings and he has a great ear for mixing, putting beats together and picking good non-mainstream music too. Highly recommended! read more

Choosing DJ Dais for our wedding was one of the best wedding decisions we made! He was super attentive and considerate when we were talking about what we were looking for and liked; I couldn't even come up with genres/words to describe what I liked, but when I named a few songs, he understood immediately, and the songs for our wedding were complete ON POINT. Not only did we love the songs, but our guests truly enjoyed them, and we got a lot of wonderful comments after the wedding about how the music selection was excellent throughout the event. Thank you again DJ Dais for being so awesome! We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skillful, professional DJ! read more

We loved working with DJ Dais for our wedding! He was so easy to work with - responsive, nice, thorough, professional, and most of all, fun! We had a blast at our reception. We received so many compliments on the music, and our guests were dancing non-stop! He also provided nice lighting for our reception, and music for our ceremony. Everything went perfectly, and I would highly recommend DJ Dais to anyone who wants a FUN wedding!! :) ( And who doesn't?) read more

DJ Dais was prompt, incredibly professional, and was super helpful with suggestions when we needed them. We can't say enough good things about him and we highly recommend. read more

I got married about a year ago, and DJ Dais was my DJ. I could write a very exhaustive review about him and go on and on, but I'll cut to what generally matters most to people looking for a venue/wedding dj: 1) Great value - excellent menu of "add-ons" as needed and he works with you 2) Responsive to phone calls/emails 3) LISTENS really REALLY listens to the people that matters most - THE BRIDE AND GROOM. 4) Professional MC - everyone could hear/understand what was going on. And did I mention that he TOTALLY played ALL the songs I wanted? I mean, seriously. AND, in the order I generally wanted them. (Me, being the bride. :D) So if you're looking for value, someone who's considerate of his clients and works well with your wedding coordinator/planner/venue - I HIGHLY recommend DJ Dais. read more

I barely write reviews, but DJ Dais HAD to get his credit!!! DJ Dais is absolutely WONDERFUL. Please stop searching and book him. He is kind, a GREAT listener, professional, valuable, accommodating, and a great DJ period. He was always there when we had questions, whether it was via email, text, or phone call, he was always there. As every normal wedding couple, we were stressed the last two days and DJ Dais made sure everything will run smoothly. He also helped us pick out a couple of songs and also helped brainstorm some. On the wedding day, he and his assistant made sure we were comfortable with how things were going, and always checked in on us about the timeline so we can all be on the same page. When we or our guest had a song to request, he tried his absolute best to make sure he can find it so we can have a good time! DJ Dais is just the DJ everyone hopes for on their wedding day, and the DJ that every bride needs because he's just so helpful and amazing!!! read more

I award DJ Dais five stars, yet... Five stars? Inadequate. DJ Dais' review deserves to go to eleven stars if only ten were possible (as the old joke from 'Spinal Tap' goes). Why? Because that's what you get when you hire Tustin, California's DJ Dais - you get a show that goes to eleven on all fronts. Fantastic work of the highest grade. My fiancee and I had quite the logistical challenge on our hands: we live in the metro Washington DC area and were planning a wedding on the West Coast, where she's from - both a traditional Vietnamese Tea Ceremony and a vows ceremony later that day held in the hangar of a vintage aircraft museum, with the reception held in the adjoining room. We contacted DJ Dais and explained the situation. He was as cool and professional as they come (special note: unlike many of his competitors, DJ Dais makes it very very easy to figure out just how much $$ you will spend on your event, what you are paying for, and what equipment/setup will come with this package, as most of this info is posted right on his website. As he so aptly puts it "because you don't have time to email every DJ for their pricing" -- this separates DJ Dais from the pretenders). We had two challenges, one setting up audio in a airplane hangar (not the typical A/V challenge associated with a banquet hall, etc) and two lighting and A/V setup in the adjoining room for dinner, dancing, etc. DJ Dais is a professional and an innovator - when he discovered the reception room was a display space for antique aircraft, as well as a space, he came up with great lighting and setup for the space which really made things pop. We worked with him flawlessly, by email, to work out details on space, where power outlets would be, where the projector screen was located and the optimal place for the dance floor. He was also able to accommodate a curve ball (and surprise for the bride and guests): myself and my officiant followed the speeches with - a song. We just needed one mic for our voices and instruments, and DJ Dais made the switch work fantastically, with no feedback or other issues. And, the music: As a professional, DJ dais appreciated the clear direction and style we had in mind. I worked to come up with a setlist broken down by time frame - cocktail hour, dinner, speeches events, and then dancing - and he helped fill in the gaps. He seamlessly wove the various styles we had at play, from classic jazz and R&B, to 70s Funk, to 1980s New Wave, and even classic country. Believe me when I say, DJ Dais is a master of the art of turntables and can make anything flow. "Get Up Offa That Thing" let everyone know it was time to get down. Black Eyed Peas "Pump It" flowed into Dick Dale's "Misrlou" got everyone on the floor. Flow and style, with ease. Digable Planets to Tammy Wynette's "Stand By Your Man" into Ariana Grande's "Break Free" - how is this possible you say? Not only is it possible, it was masterful. Months later, we still get comments from people telling us how much fun they had that night, and DJ Dais was inseparable from our Big Night's success. We both commend his services to you - why mess with the rest, when you can have the best? Sincerely, Marc and Lana Washington D.C. read more

This guy is awesome! Very Professional service. I highly recommend to anyone looking To book a highly reliable Dj.

Thank you DJ Dais so much for the lovely entertainment that you provided for us recently at our wedding. My guests and I had so much fun dancing to the variety of great mixes you provided. The groom and I provided Persian dance music via DropBox, which you learned to use in just a few days before our event! This music flowed with all the other mainstream and different genres of music that we requested on our playlist. My toes are still numb and tingly to this day from all the non-stop dancing! You also played music on cue at key moments which is important especially when you are trying to entertain 270 guests! I will certainly keep DJ Dais in mind should I need DJ service again. It's been a pleasure working with him these past 9 months. I give him my highest recommendations. Thanks a million for everything! read more

I've met a LOT of people while I was planning my wedding, and DJ Dais is one of the more personable and down-to-earth vendors. He's very professional, and he has great communication skills. He could not have done a better job at my wedding! Thanks, Dais! It was a pleasure meeting you! read more

I worked with Dais as part of Escalate LIVE. He worked extremely hard and exceeded our expectations. I would definitely recommend him.

DJ Dais is extremely professional, responsive and affordable. He DJed our wedding last year, and we had a great experience using his services. I did not give him much direction as far as song choices for the dancing part of my reception. I just told him to play good music and read the "audience"; he did just that! Everyone at my wedding had a GREAT time and they could not stop raving about how great our DJ was. thanks DJ Dais! read more

We just returned from our honeymoon (so I'm little late in getting reviews posted for my vendors), however DJ Dais did an amazing job DJing our cocktail hour and reception on June 14, 2014 at Bommer Canyon, Irvine, CA!! We received a lot of compliments on our music selection during the cocktail hour (which we chose a mix of country and classic rock), as well as dinner (which was country & love songs) followed by dancing (all pop music!)... DJ Dais made sure he played all of the songs we requested and ensure the wedding moved along with our timeline (and in conjunction with our coordinator since we were running a bit behind due to our dinner running long). I would absolutely recommend him for not only weddings but any other event/party you might need a DJ for! read more

This DJ sucks. I hired him after I read all the good reviews on here but I'm so disappointed. He showed up really late, didn't take music requests and had an attitude :( read more

I echo everyone's sentiments. Dais was the first one to get to the venue and the very last one to leave. We know, we even asked if he needed help getting things to his car. He did a great job working with the live magicians and musicians and getting the party started when the DJ portion got started. At one point, I literally ran from our ice cream truck to the dance floor when "motown philly" came on. My cousins were on the dance floor at that point and that was their old school jam. I even threw in some kpop and he was able to seamlessly weave that into our music. I know my friends who enjoy kpop recognized almost every song. :) He did a great job moving the event along and since i've assisted in a few weddings, I know what it takes to be a great DJ. Regardless that he's my (now) husband's buddy from high school, he rose to the occasion and I would recommend him to anyone getting married. He also helped set up some strobe lights and the projector as well for our little slideshow. Two thumbs way up! Thanks for being part of our special day. read more

We had such a blast at our wedding, as did all our guests thanks to DJ Dais! He had great timing, was super nice and even made a special mix for a dance we did. I love that he doesn't have any hidden costs and lays it all out on his website. It made budgeting easier and saved so much time. read more

My wife and I got married in April 2016 and we used DJ Daisuke as our DJ. Daisuke is very professional, reasonably priced, and was very flexible with us after we had some unfortunate events come up that forced us to modify our plans. If you are looking for a great DJ to host your wedding or event then you found the right person! read more

For our Aug wedding, we had Dais DJing and MCing. He was incredibly easy to work with--very professional, prompt. Dais followed through with every little detail per our planning sessions. Thanks and kudos to Dais for a glitch-free and totally fun wedding! read more

DJ Dais was a great DJ! We had our wedding March 30th, 2012 (I'm a little late in writing this review) and we could not ask for a better DJ. He kept everyone dancing and was able to accommodate guest requests for music. He kept everything running smoothly even when we started to lag on our proposed schedule. He was helpful with music suggestions and did a great job with our music list that we gave him only a day or two before the wedding. He was very professional and affordable and I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing a DJ. THANKS AGAIN DAIS! read more

My husband and I had our wedding budget laid out and set in stone before we started the actual planning process. DJ Dais appealed to us because of his excellent reviews and reasonable prices. And you know what? He was worth it AND MORE. He came early on the wedding day (12.29.12) to scope out the venue, set up, communicate with the catering manager. Also, we had to move our ceremony indoors at the last minute, and he worked with the venue to creating a beautiful ceremony room with his lighting. DJ Dais was awesome at making sure the event went smoothly, and on schedule. He was the best wedding coordinator (not his job, but it was like having a coordinator! and DJ! ) The light set up was beautiful, and the feel of the room was exactly how we envisioned it. His sound system was great, and he had everybody dancing to the end of the evening. Also, he was incredibly easy to work with and so nice!!!! You can't ask for more - he is the DJ you want at one of the most important celebrations of your life. read more

Dj Dais is such a talented dj. My fiancé and I hired him to dj our wedding this past weekend and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. Our special day would not have been the same without him. We had so many guests tell us it was the best wedding they have ever been to and that has a lot to do with Dj Dais. He is such a nice person, very professional, and followed through with any music request. The day before our wedding, we decided our first dance song was too long and he cut some parts out but we couldn't even tell that it was shortened. That takes a lot of talent and skill! We definitely would recommend Dj Dais for any event! read more

Daisuke's ability to get everyone involved on the dance floor is amazing. I have had a few weddings this year and he is by far the best. He also gets to know the Bride and Groom (for weddings) ahead of time in order to prepare. The music is fun and timely. I highly recommend him. read more

This DJ is amazing! I hired him after I read all the good reviews on here and I was so not disappointed. He showed up very early, took music requests and had a great attitude :) read more

I can't say enough about Dais. Absolutely a great DJ. DJ Dais DJ'd at my wedding last month and he flat out killed it. Up to the event he was easy to work with and always made time for us. He was early to the event for set up so there was no event day stress. During the event he was on it. He seemed to have a sixth sense for speeches, as soon as someone stood up, there he was with a microphone. The party never slowed down. The music was a perfect mix of fun and hip. If I can say one thing less than positive about Dais is that he is so modest I was worried about whether or not he was going to be any good. Turns out, the guy knows what's up. Dais is seriously great! He would be a great addition to any event. read more

Daisuke, We wanted to thank you so much for the great job that you did at our wedding. You had such great professionalism, made sure that our wedding was on time, and that our request to make our wedding memorable were met. All of our guest were very happy, pleased, and taken a back by your great work. We could not have asked for anything more from you! You met and exceeded our expectations in every way possible. If we can ever be a reference for you or help your business in any way we would be more than happy to do so! Your great work, professionalism, and expertise should definitely be recognized, promoted, and enjoyed by others as we did. Again, we can not thank you enough for making our wedding such a great experience. You truly were a wonderful DJ who heard our wants, needs, and desires and made sure that they were met. Warm Regards, Blanca and David Wilson read more
