Craig has been amazing to work with. He really made our wedding the best party experience ever. He was so accommodating despite me booking very last minute, his wedding quote is UNBEATABLE. I was even skeptical at some point but he really put out the perfect vibe I wanted for our wedding. He was very thorough and made sure all the songs I wanted at specific times were executed beautifully. I have nothing but gratitude and praise for Craig. He has definitely been instrumental to making it our perfect night. Thank you sooooo much Craig!! More power to you and will definitely have you again for our next event read more

See all

DJ Craig was such a pleasure to work with. He DJ'd our Halloween party and provided an amazing karaoke set up with a large screen and endless song choices. Craig is friendly, flexible and very responsive. The karaoke was a huge hit and we will definitely use Craig again for future events. read more

I hired them over the weekend for my daughter's sweet 16 birthday party. Our DJ Craig was the best! So helpful and accommodating, such a cool guy. He helped me organize everything so our event would run smoothly from music to timeline. I would definitely hire for a future event. We also had a selfie station that he recommended for pictures and everyone had a blast with it! The music was awesome and everyone had a great time! If you haven't booked with them I would do it now you will not regret it! They work with you all the way through! read more

Djs On A Dime - The restaurant and my daughter - DJs Near Me - Van Nuys, California

Craig was wonderful to work with! DJ Craig created the magical aura that we wanted for our wedding ceremony and a vibrant atmosphere for our guests at the reception and dance hours. He promptly and comprehensively answered all of our questions at our first in person meeting, in our email conversations, and the final pre-wedding run through meeting over the phone. He assured us that he knows how to work a crowd and he did! Most of our guests were shy and needed more of a push to get on the dance floor - DJ Craig himself got on to the dance floor and led the crowd through a couple group dances. To be honest, I was skeptical at first because of how inexpensive DJ on a Dime (the name says it all!) is compared to many of the other productions in LA. His package was already more than generous and he even threw in some bonuses to help us out. Craig own genuine response made me a believer; he stated that he loves what he does and he loves to put up more shows if that means he needs to be more affordable. I think his own words spoke accurately of what we got from Craig: sincere and quality DJ production! His online comprehensive song request database really helped us picked out some music for the wedding. We had trouble brainstorming the songs we want for each segment of the wedding but Craig patiently and expertly walked us through each portion of the wedding and even offered to play various versions of songs over the phone so that we get a better feel for what we can expect on the wedding day. There were minor hiccups through the night (i.e., officiant's mic went in and out, and mic went out of battery during the toast, etc.) I bring these up because every wedding will inevitably run into some technical issues. However, DJ Craig never miss a beat and patch over the technical issues without a hitch. Back up microphones, spare speakers, he had it all. At one point, my now wife had actually forgot to put on her garter right before the garter toss. DJ Craig covered the entire episode smoothly with his music transitions. To this day, none of the guests we spoke to had even realize that there was any issues during the wedding reception. Everyone only remembered how much fun they had at the dance floor and how magical the ceremony was. DJ Craig - thanks for throwing us the party of a lifetime at our wedding! read more

Djs On A Dime - DJs Near Me - Van Nuys, California

If I could give Craig a 1,000 star rating I would! We were recommended to him by a friend of mine, who had hired him for her wedding, and he did such a great job that we were even more excited for our wedding. And we're so glad we did! Not only is he affordable, he really made the whole planning process run smoothly and was even more amazing on the day of. Craig brought great energy, engaged with the crowd, went with the flow and provided a photo booth stand for us within days of the wedding (when our original plan fell through) The client portal made it easy to add all the music/details we wanted, the communication was great and the lawn games he provided were a hit with our guests! Thanks again Craig!! read more

We hired Craig for our son's 10th birthday celebration he is amazing, works excellent with kids has lot of games to keep everyone busy and enjoying themself, karaoke time was excellent he started sinning to break the ice follow by our guest. Excellent DJ, and great pricing compare to other Dj's in the area.!!! read more

I had hired Craig for my wedding, due to other family members hiring him in the past. I thought craig was good from the start, up until a couple weeks before my wedding. I had to reach out to him to ask specifics about the night and when I did he said that he wouldn't be able to make it. This is after putting down a deposit AND signing a contract. Craig said he had another wedding that night - and clearly did not write down our wedding in our book and he over booked himself. He made up excuses and had me in a full panic right before our wedding. He had another dj who showed up thankfully for our wedding but the unprofessional and constant excuses from craig were horrendous. I would never recommend anyone to use his services. read more

I found Craig about a year and a half before the event. He checked in a few times and was great about adding or taking things as the planning progresses. Also his rate was super great for booking in advance! Craig was there and ready to go long before I arrived. He was able to wrangle the guests to be ready for my Myers arrival as it was a surprise birthday party for her! He had great ideas to keep the party fun and did a great job with music selection. He got people on the dance floor and read the room well. He always has the ability to do multimedia like slide shows though we decided not to do that. He did bring a photo booth which was awesome! He brought props and added props we provided. The photo booth gave photos in strips and they printed enough for everyone to have a copy and an extra for our sign in scrap book! You cannot go wrong with Craig! read more

Craig was an amazing DJ for our wedding! Throughout the entire process, Craig was super responsive, easy to work with, and really helped us configure the entire day. He helped us troubleshoot questions we had about the flow of the day and made us feel so comfortable going into our actual wedding day. On the actual wedding day, everything was seamless. The music from one event to another (pre-wedding, wedding, cocktail hour, reception, cake cutting, sparkler exit, etc.) was perfect. Everyone was dancing all night, and commented on how fantastic the music was! Both Craig and Weston helped make our day amazing. This was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! read more

This review is crazy over due! My apologies, Craig! Working with Craig and DJ's on a Dime was so amazing. Craig DJ'ed my September 2012 wedding and he was such a pleasure to work with, from beginning to end. DJ's on a Dime has an amazing database of music and they make it SO easy to request songs for your event. You can even make a Do Not Play list! Awesome. Craig was early and very prepared the day of our wedding. He made sure everything ran smoothly and that everyone was having a good time. He played a great mix of music and provided a playlist that completely matched our needs and taste. Everyone commented on what great music we had! I would absolutely book and recommend Craig and DJ's on a Dime in the future. He made the whole experience so easy and provided such wonderful service. Thank you so much, Craig, for making our wedding soundtrack so memorable! read more

Craig did a great job DJ'ing my son's bar mitzvah, both playing music and MC'ing. He announced transitions, got the mostly-male kids to play fun competitive/silly games, and had a good feel for what the party needed. I really appreciate that he offers top quality at a middle class price. You don't have to be in the 1% to have a fun night! Craig is very organized and knowledgeable. We planned the night carefully, but he was totally flexible both beforehand and as the night progressed. He even ended up DJ'ing a basketball game! I highly recommend him and wouldn't hesitate to work with him again. read more

These guys were so amazing at my wedding on 12/13/14. I am so happy I picked them to DJ! Not only was Craig the DJ but he also acted as our master of ceremonies. I couldn't have been happier with the way that he kept the flow going throughout the whole night. I got so many compliments from guests all night about how much fun they were having and how much they enjoyed the music and dancing. He also knew exactly what I wanted for my wedding march and other songs during the ceremony. I didn't think I was specific enough and he knew exactly where I wanted the songs to start and stop. I was so surprised at how perfect and smoothly it all went. I highly recommend DJs on a Dime! read more

We hired Craig as our DJ for our wedding and he made the entire night so great. He had people who never dance up on the dance floor! He actually got out on the dance floor and interacted with the crowd and got them pumped up. He was an amazing DJ and MC, all of our guests talked about how much they loved the music and DJ. read more

We got the gold star treatment with Craig. We had a destination wedding in FL, where my groom's family lives, and then back home for the reception for our LA friends. One of the things I was really worried about was providing a video slideshow for our LA guests who did not attend the wedding. As a bride, there are a million and one details to keep track of. I really didn't want the extra burden of figuring out how to put on the slideshow (meaning the logistics of it...the screen, audio, and visual). The venue said they had the proper equipment. During a walk through earlier in the week, it turns out they had none of the 3 pieces of equipment necessary to pull off the presentation. The screen got taken down. The speaker system was worthless and non-operational. Even though I came with every type of audio and video cables, none of them was going to work with the existing equipment. With time running out, the added pressure of calling vendor after vendor to find a place that rents the equipment, was daunting. In the meanwhile, I was interviewing DJ's for the reception. By sheer chance, I told Craig my desire to run the video, and he said he had the necessary equipment! We did a walk through and he said he had the equipment that we needed. Craig delivered! He showed up on-time, is professional, and kept my guests entertained and moving. At one point, the dance floor was a little sparse, and he got on the floor himself to teach the guests a line dance. All good. I would recommend Craig for your next event. read more

Craig was amazing! The communication leading up to our wedding was outstanding. I love the online system he has for tracking our songs and timeline. Craig was willing and able to accommodate everything we wanted to make our wedding unique to us. He has a HUGE selection of music and really knows how to read the crowd. We received many compliments on the music we had at our wedding this October and we are so thankful to Craig for making our wedding a super fun, dance filled party! I definitely recommend hiring DJs on a Dime for your next event!!! read more

As a wedding coordinator, I deal with a lot of prideful and unfriendly vendors. They probably put on a good face for the bride, but are inconsiderate to venue staff and other vendors. Craig was the DJ at one of my weddings, and he was by far the best vendor I've worked with to date. He's a teamplayer and his goal is for the whole event to run smoothly, not just focused on himself. I wish all the vendors I work with were so helpful and polite. read more

Craig was absolutely AMAZING! He was sooo easy to work with and his online process for music was so easy. He also had such a variety to work with and whatever he didnt have he was able to get right there on the spot! I would reccomend him to anyone... we had him for our wedding at Knollwood Country Club in Granada Hills and he literally stole the show... AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING! read more

Extremely satisfied with the level of service and talent provided by our DJ weston of DJs on a dime. We worked closely with both Weston and Craig who were both very helpful with making sure our entertainment needs were met. You will not regret your decision to use them especially when other competitors are charging even double or more of what DJs on a dime offer. These guys do good work and they're good people too. Couldn't have asked for more. read more

Booking a DJ for a wedding reception in LA can be incredibly daunting because there are so many options to choose from--and the price is often quite high. Craig from DJs on a Dime did an amazing job for a very reasonable price. We booked his services only a few weeks prior to our event but he was such a pro that things never felt rushed or frenzied. Craig communicated with us promptly over email and took the time to talk with us on the phone about our goals for the event and to help us strategize about how to select music that would please the wide range of tastes represented by our guests. When we had to make a bunch of last minute changes to our event layout due to a freak summer thunderstorm, Craig handled everything seamlessly. The online song request system made it easy for us to suggest tracks for different parts of the evening, and Craig was able to hunt down several songs from independent artists that weren't in the system. He fit those songs into the awesome playlist for the cocktail hour even though we had no idea how they would fit with the jazz and blues standards we'd also requested. When it came time to get everyone up dancing, Craig did a wonderful job reading the room and mixing things up to keep people engaged. He even got down on the dance floor with us to teach everyone a line dance--while a cousin's toddler tried to run laps through his legs! If that doesn't scream pro, I'm not sure what does. read more

Craig was awesome! He was the DJ for my daughters 18th birthday and all the guests loved him and asked my daughter where she found him. He got them all dancing and having fun! He worked with us from the very beginning starting with the quote working within our budget and organizing the timing of the events for cake and father and daughter song etc. He even took pics and sent them to us! Craig is awesome to work with and knows how to give you exactly what your party needs and keep the guests dancing and entertained! We will definitely go to Craig/DJs on a dime for all our future events and would refer him to anyone who asks us! Thank You Craig!!! read more

Great group of Dj's. They were professional and made us feel super comfortable during the whole process. Their website was extremely helpful in making our playlist and wedding timeline. We couldn't recommend DJ's on a dime highly enough! read more

We have worked with DJ's on a Dime many times. I am a wedding planner and he does a great job! He is the chameleon of DJ's. He has so much knowledge about music and really keeps the dance floor full all night. He is also very professional! read more

Craig and his team were awesome to work with for my daughter's Malibu wedding. He's so knowledgeable, talented and personable. A real find when you're looking for someone to make your celebration a success. Thanks so much for helping make our beach wedding and reception magical! read more

We can not say enough good things about Craig. From day one he was so intuitive, prompt, professional, fun, understanding and accommodating. We had asked Craig to do two events in a week for our welcoming party and wedding, Craig completely nailed it both times! He even let me send him ethnic music on youtube, which he turned into MP3S, making it so easy for us. At one point, one of our guests took the mic and started singing on his own, Craig totally went with it and it was amazing. He also knew which way the party was going and kept everyone on the dance floor, he even led a few dances! Between his on-line music request form and helpful directory, it was so much fun planning all the music, not to mention helpful when we forgot which songs to pick out! Our guests were so happy about the wonderful atmosphere (music, lights, etc..) that Craig provided, many of them asked me if he had a C.D. so they can listen to the music at home lol! Many of them tell us over and over it was the best wedding they have ever been to. There are a ton of DJs here in Los Angeles, but I couldn't be happier that we went with Craig. He's an amazing person, he's extremely polite, respectful and had led the party in the same way. Craig also helped us out with a videographer and also financially with both parties and was more than helpful. Craig- Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for making our wedding so special, so much fun and so personable. Greg and I are absolutely honored to have you as our DJ, hope to see you at our next event! :) read more

I cannot say enough nice things about Craig and his team. He provided DJ and MC services for my wedding, and I can honestly say he made my wedding 100% more fun. He was an excellent MC and great at going with the flow when the timeline of events shifted through out the night. His client portal is also amazing and allows you to pick songs and outline all of the details of your event with ease. It also gives you suggested songs based on what other people play at their weddings. He was always quick to answer my questions and he scheduled a time before the wedding to go through every detail. Lastly, the dance floor was always full and he was great at identifying what songs should be played and what songs should not be played. Overall, Craig and his team are experts in what they do and very affordable. I highly recommend them for any event! read more

I would highly recommend Craig! He was the DJ for our son's Bar Mitzvah and did a great job. Craig is extremely personable, professional, and catered to our specific needs. He truly made our son feel special on his big day! He was flexible and so easy to work with. We also used his videographer who also did a great job capturing all of our special moments that night. In addition, he worked within our budget and was very reasonable, which helped take the edge off when planning for such an important event. I have no problems whatsoever in recommending Craig to anyone for their special occasion! read more

Craig is such a talented and rad person, and we had the privilege of having him as our DJ for our wedding last July. He was super accommodating and made everything so easy for us, which was nice because everything about planning a wedding is crazy! Just take my word for it, he's awesome and you'll love him! read more

This guy did an amazing job at our wedding. He was especially helpful with the flow of events throughout the night. Music selection was awesome and he was able to get everyone to dance. I definitely recommend, this guy knows what hes doing. read more

I didn't know where to start when it was time to find a dj, but we were lucky that our photographer, Simply Perfect Images, recommended Dj Craig to us. He was so great! He was very quick to respond to emails and phone calls. He was super professional and easy to talk to. And the website is awesome! There's super easy planning forms and playlists you can make. His prices are also very reasonable, and he really goes out of his way to make sure your event goes as perfect as possible. He even had his assistant, Weston, do an epic dance off with my now husband. And both of them got on the dance floor with us. It was awesome! And all of the music for our special moments were played perfectly. I could not have been more happy with this company and his services, like seriously, not a single complaint. read more

Craig really was a great DJ - and helped Phill and I have the wedding of our dreams 8/12/12. Thank you so much for adding songs that are so special and meaningful for the two of us to your already amazing collection! Although we found you through a service we've been recommending you directly to our engaged friends already! read more

Craig was great! I had my cousin play a classic guitar for my ceremony and Craig hooked everything up so everyone could hear the music and also, mic'd up my husband so everyone could hear him too. These were details I hadn't given much thought to and I was happy to not only have his guidance in the matter, but also that he took the didn't need to ask about every detail, he just took care of the matter. Well done!! read more

Craig did a fantastic job on my son's Bar Mitzvah! From my first email, he was so attentive. He made sure everything was exactly how I wanted it. The kids had so much fun!! He was professional and made my life so easy in the midst of everything that needed to get done, for an event like this. He put together a beautiful video with music for us. I loved it! He definitely knows what he is doing. I would hire him again! Such a nice person. He put together an A+ event! read more

Craig did an amazing job at our parents' 50th wedding anniversary! He was fantastic even when unexpected requests came in. He was a constant professional from the planning stages all the way to the end of the event. My parents were so happy and received nothing but the highest praises for an amazing event, many thanks to Craig. He really kept the party going and even did some karoake himself. Everyone just loved him! The guests didn't want to stop dancing even when it was time to go! I have also seen him DJ at Dtox many times and he is just awesome. I cannot say enough nice things about him. If you want a super fun event, hire Craig!! read more

I have never met Craig, but came highly recommended by my sister for our parents' 50th Anniversary. Fabulous, amazing and so accommodating with last minute requests and program changes. He's so approachable that, if we didn't manage our guests, they would be requesting songs all night! What I really enjoyed about the event was Craig's selection of music, it was very appropriate for the crowd and the event. He was also very engaging and kept the tempo upbeat throughout the whole event. Recommended highly and often. read more

DJs on a dime did our Malibu wedding and was fantastic! Very professional and thoughtful service. Many of our guests commented on their enjoyment of the music. I would recommend them for sure! read more
