Trevor was fantastic to work with for our event. This was a large Celebration of Life with over 200 guests and a wide mix of ages, and he handled it beautifully. His communication was excellent from start to finish, and he followed through on every detail. He not only DJ'd but also did a great job MC'ing and helping manage the flow of the evening, reading the room perfectly and accommodating all of our needs. Everything felt seamless. We would absolutely use him again and highly recommend him for any event. read more

The superior DJ for a wedding! I could not have asked for a better DJ for my reception. Five stars. read more

Hired Trevor for a high school graduation party and he was fantastic to work with from the point of initial contact through picking up at the end of the night. Very professional and lots of fun! Kept the good tunes going all night long. Will definitely hire for another event. read more

Trevor was great to work with. Everyone loved the Photo Booth and he kept the tunes and guests moving through the day.

First, let me start by saying that the freelance DJ, Ahlan Wright, contracted by Trevor was absolutely amazing. My guests couldn't stop raving about how fun he was, and he truly delivered on everything we asked for. I would absolutely hire him again for future events, and I've attached his contact info here for anyone interested. However, my review is primarily about the misleading way Trevor, the owner, conducts his business. I initially found OC Party DJ while searching for a DJ for my 40th birthday party on Yelp. When I first reached out, Trevor offered me the "Premium Package," which he said included Full MC services (more on that in a moment). I went to his website and saw other packages listed, such as the Wedding, Silver, and Party DJ packages. However, the Premium Package was not listed on the site. It seemed like a great deal, so I signed the contract and sent the non-refundable deposit. A week before my party, I reached out to Trevor asking if we could have the DJ play a specific song to introduce us during our 90s-themed character party. That's when Trevor told me that I had actually been booked under a Basic Party Package, which only included basic MC services like announcing "food is ready" or "get on the dance floor." I was confused because he had only offered me the Premium Package (with add-ons like a 360-photo booth), and now he was calling it "basic." The terms "Basic" and "Premium" are very different, and I didn't expect what I thought was the Premium Package to actually be a lower-tier service. Trevor then explained that if we wanted introductions, it would cost us extra money. But here's the issue: If you go to Trevor's website and look at the Wedding Package, you'll see that Full MC Services include introductions, first dances, and announcements (I've attached a photo for reference). The other packages don't explicitly define what "Full MC Services" include, but they also state that you get Full MC Services. It's reasonable to assume that if they use the same wording, the services should be the same across packages. If Trevor meant to offer something different, like Basic MC Services, why not clearly state it on his website? It felt misleading, and I didn't appreciate how he wouldn't honor the services as advertised. On principal alone, I refused to pay the extra money. So, that put a damper on things before my event even began. Thankfully, the DJ, Ahlan, decided to go ahead and do the introductions anyway, which was a huge relief, and we ended up having a fantastic time. But again, there was confusion. Trevor told the DJ that we owed him the remaining $450, and our contract said we had $400 remaining. We felt terrible, knowing that the DJ was being underpaid by $50, which made the situation incredibly frustrating. In the end, we gave him an extra $100 because of how well he did, but again, this should have been handled more professionally by Trevor. While the DJ made our event memorable, Trevor's handling of the situation and his business practices left much to be desired. I won't be using his company again for future events. (By the way, we didn't get the effects and lighting that was promised either. But it really wasn't needed in the environment). read more

Awesome DJ kept the vibes UPPP for my brother's bday would definitely hire again for my next function!

I contacted a number of photo booth companies and could not be happier that I went with OC Party DJ. Besides the reasonable pricing, Trevor had all the insurance stuff that the venue asked for, was very quick and responsive to our constant questions and never gave me a sense that I would be getting anything but the best. I see one two star review on here and I guarantee you the problem was with the customer, cause OC Party DJ was honestly fantastic. read more

We had a great experience with Trevor "OC Party DJ" for a Sweet 16 celebration. He arrived on time, was well prepared, and did an excellent job accommodating teen music requests throughout the night. The playlist kept the energy up and the dance floor full, and the photo booth was a huge hit with the guests. Friendly, professional, and easy to work with from start to finish. Highly recommend for events and milestone celebrations. read more

We hired DJ Trevor for our casual corporate summer party hosting approximately 400 guests total. Trevor was extremely professional and responded very timely throughout the entire process. He was also very budget friendly and made sure to provide us everything we needed for the event. Photobooth - Trevor created a custom photo strip with our logo and icons which our guests absolutely loved. It was very self sufficient which I prefer since it can be awkward if somebody is watching you while you take your photos. I would recommend ensuring though that you set up considering where the light hits if you're outside to ensure no glare. If there is wind, I highly recommend stationing this inside. DJ - While I was very busy running around the event, Trevor was extremely accommodating in ensuring that our event schedule was followed perfectly. He helped make announcements and even hosted our game contests when my team member lost her voice during the first to second round of games. The guests absolutely loved the energy Trevor brought. I would definitely recommend both Trevor and his photobooth for your event! read more

We had OC Party DJ host their Photo Booth at our wedding. The pictures turned out great, and Trevor was super helpful and stayed the entire time to provide support. He also gave us a link with all of the photos afterwards, so we were able to see every photo that everyone took. Overall was a great experience, would hire OC Party DJ again! read more

Trevor killed it at our daughter's sweet 16 bday bash. He played great music and dealt with the crowd of kids and parents alike as well as accommodating all requests. He has a great setup and the extra lights really put the party over the top. His party is your party meaning he was very flexible. He was extremely kind. He showed up on time, early even, to set up his equipment and you could tell he really enjoys his work. His rates are excellent and I'd even dare to say he's either undercharging a bit for his services or other djs inflate their rates. Great guy. Great DJ. Book him!! read more

We selected Trevor as our wedding DJ because he was responsive, flexible, and fun! We couldn't be happier with our selection. Our guests loved him. He was able to take our ceremony script, cue up our special songs, and play them at the appropriate time. He even took the time to ask questions to make sure he understood what we wanted. That showed us that he truly cared that our day was special! Also, you got to do the photo booth. It was a hit at our wedding and he incorporated our wedding invite design to the printouts as well. Really happy with DJ Nighthawk!! :D read more

Trevor was set to DJ for our wedding on March 1st of next year. Unfortunately, just a couple weeks after booking with Trevor, our venue went bankrupt and cancelled all future events, including our wedding. We were left with no other choice but to cancel our wedding. We reached out to multiple of our vendors explaining the situation to them, all of them were very understanding and were kind enough to return the deposit. In Trevor's case, there was nowhere written that the deposit was non refundable so we reached out to him as he seemed very kind and understanding when we had our consultation. Unfortunately, this is not the case, he was just being a good salesman and nothing more. This cancellation was out of our control and since we had just booked with him we thought he would be flexible. He was not. After emailing with him and him refusing to return our deposit, we understood that even though there was nowhere stating that the deposit is non-refundable, we would not be getting it back. So we asked if we could then apply the deposit to his Photo Booth services instead of his DJ services. Again he said no. He claims he tried working with us but denied every request. He is taking advantage of us and our situation and claiming that we "bailed" on him. Another example of how unprofessional he is. We are the ones trying to work with him and not the other way around like it should be. Very disappointing. If you have an upcoming wedding or event, please reconsider when booking with Trevor. Things that are out of our control happen all of the time, and if you can't trust the business you're working with to be understanding of that then you should not book them. This situation was devastating enough as it is. Thank you Trevor for making it more difficult. read more

DJ Nighthawk is an absolute legend! He was fully dressed up, very professional and his timing was amazing. He helped to MC our wedding ceremony and reception (two separate locations) and did an amazing job. His playlists curated for the wedding were perfect, fun and energetic, and had the people moving on the dance floor. My wife and I could not have asked for a better DJ to ring in our marriage and we highly recommend him. I know we can only give 5 stars on the app, but if there was an option, I'd give him 10 stars! Thank you so much for everything! read more

We used this DJ for our school's spring fair and he was absolutely wonderful. He followed all of our instructions and was creating a super fun atmosphere. We are planning to use him for our next event already. read more

A professional but very approachable. He was very well received at the event I attended.

I had the great pleasure of working with DJ Nighthawk from OC Party DJ. From the get-go, Nighthawk really understood the music and the vibe that we were hoping for. His experience DJ'ing weddings really shows through the guidance and coordination that he provided, and really made sure all the entrances and music timing turn out perfectly. We definitely threw him a few curveballs when we asked him to host some DJ games as part of our wedding and to cover for our live musicians who had to drop out last minute. He handled all of them with aplomb. All in all, we had a great time with Trevor and are really happy he was part of our big day. read more

Trevor was absolutely fantastic start to finish. Prompt and informative communication leading up to the event, including creating two custom templates. He arrived on time to set up the Photo Booth and had it complete and ready to go even when guests arrived early. He brought a lot of fun props which made the pictures even more fun, and was a total professional. He had a complete digital photo album to us early the following morning. Very impressive! I highly recommend Trevor!! read more
