Jonathan was our MC and DJ for our wedding in October 2025 and I cannot recommend him enough! It took one phone call and he completely understood the vibe we were going for and was genuinely excited to be a part of our day. He worked seamlessly with our wedding planner, Victoria with thatBliss, and I had zero hesitations going into the big day. I knew we were in good hands. Jonathan was extremely professional while MCing our wedding. He made all the appropriate announcements and kept the celebration flowing smoothly all night. With his clear, strong voice, relatable personality, and attention to detail, you cannot go wrong with Jonathan as the host of your big day! Jonathan is also an extremely talented artist. He performed live during cocktail hour and during dinner, and I had so many guests commenting on how much they enjoyed the live music. It was such a fun and unique addition. It really elevated the experience for everyone. Once the dancing kicked off, Jonathan absolutely nailed it. He seamlessly wove his go to dance tracks with our specially requested songs and made the dance floor the place to be. Our dance floor was open for about four hours including the after party, and Jonathan made sure to keep the energy high! We all had the best night and three months later, our friends and family are still talking about how much fun they had. I owe a big part of this to Jonathan. We cannot thank you enough!! read more

We couldn't be happier with our wedding DJ--Jonathan was absolutely incredible. 10/10, highly recommend! He was professional, punctual, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. The sound system was top-notch, and his live music performances were amazing--he has such a beautiful voice. Jonathan's live singing during our ceremony and first dance made the moment feel significantly more personal and set the perfect mood for the rest of the day. He also DJed our reception to our highest expectations of a fun, energetic dance party--the dance floor was never empty! Our guests cannot stop talking about him. So many people told us Jonathan was the best DJ and performer they've ever seen, and my husband and I completely agree. He truly made our night unforgettable! read more

My wife and I had an initial call with Kevin Miso, as that was a preferred vendor for our venue. We enjoyed the call with Kevin but he happened to get booked before we could lock in the contract. A blessing-in-disguise, Kevin referred us to Jonathan. The calm and positive energy is just what we were looking for in a DJ/Musician (and in all our vendors to be honest). Jonathan was a pleasure to work with during the planning process. On the wedding day, the live vocals were great. Every guest came up to us to ask how we found Jonathan because they all enjoyed his performance. I will call out that we didn't want a cheesy/TV announcer type of DJ and thankfully Jonathan was a natural and organically transitioned the announcements. Go listen to his Spotify and on YouTube - you will not be disappointed! read more

Jonathan is more than just a talented singer & musician, he is the detail that will set your wedding apart. From Led Zeppelin to R&B/hip hop, his ability to take classic songs and party songs just as special and memorable as your big day is his real talent. He also doubled as our DJ when the party started and made sure the vibe was always on point. Jonathan will forever be one of the most stand out parts of our wedding, we're grateful for the magical tone he set! read more

I first discovered Jonathan through my old company parties as they always hire him to set the mood for work events. I've witnessed all the girls swoon over his performances and talent... me being one of them haha! Being a sucker for acoustic covers, I had to book him for my wedding. My wedding's genre was generally 90's hip hop and R&B and he exceeded my expectations on my wedding day. All my guests loved him as he played a wide array of modern songs with his own twist. Overall, Jonathan is prompt and responsive when need be. He can work with you on executing your vision! He is a great performer and is well worth it!

We had our wedding on the beach in the San Diego area, and were given strict guidelines on our music selection by the venue. We were introduced to Jonathan through another musician, and we can't say enough great things about him and his amazing voice. The area of beach we choose is surrounded by a hotel, and of course guests were intrigued by our wedding and ceremony being on the beach so many of them were also hanging out watching and listening. Once cocktail hour began, so did Jonathan's singing. He has an eclectic array of music that kept invited guest as well as hotel guests dancing and singing. During dinner he sang songs by The Beatles, Sublime, Warren G and even Snoop Dogg. Our guests kept coming up to us asking where we found Jonathan. His fun, but chill vibes mixed with his voice kept everyone entertained throughout the night.

Our wedding was over a month ago and we are still getting guests reaching out about how amazing Jonathan was! During the planning phase he was responsive, asked all the right questions and ensured we felt comfortable with our music plan for the day. But we were so underprepared for the level of amazing he was about to bring to our wedding! Jonathan sang for our ceremony and did a special throwback acoustic set during dinner hour. He then had our dance floor packed all night. The vibes were impeccable. We had people standing up during dinner to dance by their table because they just couldn't fight it. He MC'd everything seamlessly. It was absolute perfection and we all had THE best time, largely due to Jonathan and the energy he brought to the party! Do not hesitate to book him for your wedding - you and your guests will not be disappointed!! read more

I recently booked Jonathan for our 10 year anniversary/vow renewal celebration for live music and DJ. Jonathan has 5 star yelp reviews for a reason. He is extremely talented, very professional, easy to work with and has such a positive vibe. I loved that he shared in my excitement for our event. We had a special request song for our first dance and he played it so beautifully, it sounded like a recording. Jonathan was also very flexible in working around our schedule and even working around a few special performances from family members. The music part of the event was handled so smoothly and perfectly from the sand ceremony, recessional, cocktail hour and reception. I highly recommend Jonathan for any special event. He definitely made ours an event to remember and I'm sure we'll be booking him for future events soon. read more

As a bride who did all of my vendor sourcing and communication myself, I have to say Johnathan and his team were the easiest to work with. He was very organized in planning for all of our music needs at our wedding and was helpful in suggesting the best timing for live vs recorded music. I felt confident in his team's prompt and clear communication throughout the preparation process. On the wedding day, he showed up early, had equipment prepared and set up for our ceremony, cocktail and reception spaces. He learned and performed my favorite song for my walk down the aisle which was a very emotional and special touch for myself and my husband. Everyone also loved his live set during dinner and he kept the dance floor rocking into the evening with his DJ set. He even graciously MCed the shoe game for us during the reception...it was a hit! Highly recommend!!!!! read more

We hired Jonathan for our wedding on 5/21/23 and he was the highlight of our event. We didn't have dancing, so he was able to play songs and sing during our reception. His voice is so impressive and I can't believe how lucky we were to find him. Everyone kept talking about how great his voice is! We would definitely recommend hiring him! He is so so talented! read more

Oh. My. God. My then-fiancé and I saw Jonathan a year prior at my best friends wedding and were so beyond impressed we knew we had to have him perform at our own wedding. Truly! My fiancé, when he first heard him playing, thought he was listening to a very very crisp professional recording and not a live performer. I can not overstate how good Jonathan is at singing and performing. Just wow, he will be famous one day. As a performer at a wedding though, I believe it takes more than just talent to make the day perfect, and Jonathan carried the entire wedding flawlessly as both the entertainment and the MC of the evening, learning live renditions of our chosen songs for our ceremony, entertaining our guests with his AMAZING combination of r&b, rap, pop, country, and everything in between during cocktail hour and reception. During the dancing portion of the night he played hit after hit, keeping our dance floor electric and forever full. He's an incredible guy, an amazing performer, and your guests will be so impressed. If you made it to the end of this review, book a call with Jonathan! You truly won't regret it, he's the best vendor decision we made for our wedding. read more

Reached out to Jonathan to see if he was available to play at a small birthday party. He was extremely responsive and shared his music catalog as well, all through text.

I first saw Jonathan at a friend's wedding (prior to us getting engaged) and I knew I HAD to have him at my wedding. As soon as we booked the venue he was my second call. He performed Invisible String for my ceremony and allowed us to select to new songs that weren't on his comprehensive list. My guests were obsessed with his performance during our dinner hour and my planner said it was the first time she had guests ask for an encore during dinner! He also kept the dance floor going all night long. 10/10 would recommend. read more

What a gem and so easy to work with. He made our night magical and his solo performance was amazing. Highly recommend him, he will not disappoint! read more

DJ, MC, singer songwriter, professional vibe setter-- Jonathan is the FULL package, and that's no exaggeration. He set exactly the tone we were seeking for our wedding on August 24th. A true professional and a real gentleman, Jonathan was such a pleasure to collaborate with-- and executed even better than we could have imagined on our wedding day! He got a sense of the vibe we were seeking, and handled the rest. He read our crowd just right all night, had everyone grooving and body rolling with the covers he performed during dinner, and kept the dance floor very much live all the way through the very last song. Before the night was even done, our friends and family were asking for his info --everyone was blown away by his talent, and we are still referring him to folks weeks later! We're so grateful to have met Jonathan and Sammee thru this process and we would work with him again in a heartbeat. read more

My husband and I had the absolute honor of having Jonathan play at our wedding. He started by playing acoustic guitar and singing as our wedding party and I walked down the aisle and he was absolutely incredible and sounded better than any recorded versions of those songs. He then played and sang during the dinner portion, making this usually boring part of weddings soooo fun and entertaining! He sang our first dance song more beautifully than I could have imagined! He then DJ'd during the dancing portion and absolutely CRUSHED. Our dance floor was packed the entire time, I couldn't even find a time to the bathroom because he was playing bop after bop and no one wanted to leave! Our guests even chanted "one more song" after the final song and Jonathan politely obliged. Book Jonathan RIGHT NOW for your wedding or event, you will not regret it!!!!!! read more

We could not have been luckier to find Jonathan for our wedding. Not only was he a perfect professional and an amazing MC/DJ, this man is supremely talented. His performance singing and playing guitar during our ceremony and the dinner reception has been the talk of our wedding and a part of the night we'll never forget. If any soon-to-be-married couple is looking for a DJ to ensure that their event is a success, please do yourselves a favor and get Jonathan to do it. Seriously, this guy is amazing. read more

Is there a way to give ten stars? As a professional in the event industry for over thirteen years, planning my wedding was no easy feat. Surprisingly, I had not made many entertainment connections, so I asked another friend in the industry for a recommendation, and they immediately mentioned Jonathan. I trusted this "friendor" of mine, so I did not think twice before I reached out to confirm his availability. From the initial contact, Jonathan was attentive, professional and SO SO KIND! Fast forward to the wedding. He showed up on time and was ready to rock! My wedding had a little curve ball in there as my little sister performed a song with my dad playing guitar. Jonathan learned the specific song for our wedding, and there was not a dry eye; it was fantastic! Jonathan's voice is killer! His ability as a DJ to read the crowd and give them exactly what they want is impeccable. You are literally missing out if you do not hire him, cannot say enough great things! read more

AMAZING singer! We saw him playing last night at Gracias Madre and it was such a treat. He was fantastic and sang a bunch of covers that were spot on and also added his own twist to a few of the songs which we really enjoyed :) read more

When I first heard about Jonathan I jumped at the idea of having someone perform at the ceremony and over dinner and then also DJ the late night party! After doing some research to get a sense for his sound (think JT vibes!) I was so excited when I found out he was available! Sadly he injured his hand and couldn't play guitar but Jonathan had a friend come who ended up having an incredible voice too! It all worked out so well and I highly recommend booking him for your wedding or event! read more
