DJ Ronnie did an amazing job at our wedding! He did exactly what we wanted without even asking. He was also very helpful and kept everything moving along nicely. He had great energy and was well spoken. Sounds in Motion was a great company to work with, especially Malia! She was organized and provided quick answers to our questions. We would definitely recommend using them for a wedding!! ‍ read more

Dj George and his team at Sounds in Motion are so much fun! I went to a wedding they were at and was so blown away that I had to ask for his card as I am planning my own wedding. 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. read more

Wow, Sounds in Motion continue to amaze me. We had DJ George do our wedding reception 17 years ago and he did an outstanding job. Fast forward to 2024, and we hired Sounds in Motion for a 65th BD party for my wife, and Alvin the DJ was just as amazing! Alvin immediately picked up our vibe, did a great soft musical set for dinner and then really kicked it in after dinner. Played all of our favorites and really kept the party moving. I used them again and was glad I did. They're the best! read more

BEST DJ EVER!! I'm a wedding photographer and see a lot of DJ services... NO ONE gets a crowd out of their chairs and onto the dance floor like DJ George! He brings life and energy into every party, he shows up at and keeps things running smoothly. He makes a solid timeline before the wedding and knows the best flow/order of events to keep guests happy and engaged. They also have the best sound and lighting equipment. The dancing photos look much better with the big, bad, professional DJ lighting instead of the cheesy little things that some others bring. You will not regret using Sounds in Motion! Best in the biz! read more

Jody you don't want him as dj had a couple months ago at wedding very unprofessional at weddings George or Joe is better

Sorry, DJ George really only knows one age group to cater to. He was the worst DJ at my wedding. Learn how to read the room. It was a mess.

We hired Sounds in Motion for our wedding and 4 years later are hiring them for our daughters wedding next Spring. Professional service, organized music, knowledgeable, and no one ever stopped dancing. From a business stand point we partner with them consistently for local fashion shows and events. read more

Sound in Motion was the DJ service my wife and I used for our wedding reception! They absolutely KILLED it! Many of our guests complimented on the music selection! And the DJ kept the dance floor/party rocking all night long! Behind the scenes and before our event we had a meeting with the owner to hash out the event details and he was very professional and right to the point. I have a long and oddly pronounced last name but our DJ didn't stumble over it at all and was totally prepared which was a relief for me! I hope to host another event and use them again! read more

We hired Sounds in Motion for our June 2020 wedding which we postponed until June 2021. We paid extra to have George be our DJ and it was 100% worth the money! He was a personable and entertaining MC and just an overall fun person to have at our wedding. He knew exactly what songs to play in an order which would accommodate different types of guests at our wedding. He had me (the bride) out on the dance floor for almost the entire time- he was THAT good at song selection! George was interactive with our guests and helped make our reception a success. Highly recommend! read more

If you are looking for a DJ for your event, especially your wedding, look. no. further!! Seriously. Dj George made my entire wedding run smoothly and perfectly. He is so incredibly good at keeping your wedding timeline on point and even better at feeling the vibe of your guests and keeping everyone on the dance floor having a blast. He is also a pleasure to work with and an honest, kind, attentive person. Highly highly recommend !! read more

See all

Pretty average DJ service. A lot of my guests commented how the DJ was not very good at our wedding and on the other hand some loved it. We met with George a couple weeks before our wedding and he was really nice. It was a pretty long meeting and I thought everything was squared away for the big day. We had his brother Jerry for our DJ which I found odd that he was not there for the meeting to go through all the songs we picked since he will be the only one there for the day of. It turns out he messed up our first dance song which we were really bummed about. What disappointed us the most, was that we emailed sounds in motion thanking them for their service but also telling them that we were upset about what happened. It's been almost a month and we still have not gotten any response and no apology for what happened. I don't think they are very professional and clearly not organized. I would hope for any future bride & grooms that this does not happen to you! I wish we would have chosen a different DJ service for our wedding. read more

I have to reiterate what a great job DJ George did. It's been about 10 months since our wedding, but during this time we've attended about 4 weddings. I have to say not one DJ compared to our wedding night. I've seen DJ's either not feed off the crowd and let the dance floor go empty, DJ's not help the wedding night flow (I'm talking LONG LAGS in time), and my personal favorite a DJ that allowed a billion speeches. Maybe we gave George a ton of specifics, or maybe he really is just a kick ass DJ! Either way my husband and I walk away from almost every event saying not one compared to ours. I can't recommend Sounds In Motion enough! read more

Let's start from the beginning... Empire, California; 1995; Teel Middle School I walk in to my school dance to find an older man (I was 12, he was in his early 20's) with big muscles, a backwards hat, and denim overalls blasting all of my favorite songs through the school's cafeteria. We learn the DJ's name is George and he and his brother have started their own company. Modesto, California; 2010; Sounds in Motion Offices Like all the other girls from my jr. high, we remember DJ George for turning school dances into the BEST parties of all time. He DJ'd every event for us until I graduated high school. We all knew DJ George had to be our wedding DJ. As I walk into his new office, I can tell he's come a long way since denim overalls and a minivan. He remembers the 12 year old version of me, and right away makes my fiance' feel part of the story while we talk about the past. He gets to work helping us layout the wedding, and schedules our follow up meeting. We meet with George a second time, and get to work planning out all the music for the event. George knows every song I'm talking about, and is open to hear new music he's not familiar with. An hour later, my entire wedding timeline is set with music cues, and transitions. Jason was our DJ for the wedding, and was awesome! He was professional, and made sure to know the key players at our reception (parents, maid of honor, best man, etc). He kept the flow, kept things moving, but never once did anyone realize we were rushing through things because Jason didn't let the urgency show at all. The night was perfect, and I can't imagine how it could have been done without Jason. Sounds in Motion takes the time to make sure you get everything you want, and go above and beyond and make it a reality. It's Sounds in Motion or nothing at all for us from here on out. Thanks George! read more

DJ George was amazing for my wedding at the Viaggio in May! He's such a sweetheart! Throughout the planning process his staff and himself were very professional and caring! I was always well taken care of with them! DJ George is super entergetic, very friendly, and I loved how interactive he was with me and my guests! We are still getting compliments on him! Thanks DJ George for making my wedding day even more memerable! Until we meet again.... Love ya!! read more

I have worked with DJ George and Sounds in Motion for several years in the wedding industry, and also had him DJ my own wedding reception. From a professional stand point, he was the perfect MC for the wedding expo I organized. He energized the crowd during the fashion show, and kept the day's events on track. On a personal note, I wouldn't have trusted my wedding reception to anyone else! DJ George made sure each event was on time and ran smoothly. He also made sure that the dance floor was packed the entire night! I have gotten so many compliments on his work, with friends and family saying that he MADE the reception. He is the only person I would have trusted to work with on both a professional and personal level. If you want someone who will help you organize your event, keep the activities on track and will make sure everyone will have a BLAST, hire DJ George and Sounds in Motion DJs. read more

Best DJ ever!! I had my wedding in Southern California and had to import sounds in motion to come DJ my wedding because there's no wedding without DJ George! Photographer, videographer, the perfect dress...they are all important in a wedding but without an amazing DJ the wedding is just mediocre. With sounds in motion, rest assured your wedding or event will be the funnest one ever. They have a way of getting everyone involved and play the best music! We did a Skype chat and he helped me pick out all of my wedding songs! They have tons of experience and are definitely the best in the business!! No comparison! Hire them! I promise you won't be disappointed!! read more

When I started hunting for a DJ service for my daughter's wedding, I had no idea where to turn, or whom to choose, so I started hunting online and came across the name "Sounds in Motion"-and boy, am I ever glad that I did! Right from the very first contact call, I could tell that George was an awesome and professional person, and after the whole family trooped into his office for an initial consult, we could see that our first impressions were correct. George was incredibly professional, knowledgeable and as an added bonus-hilariously funny. He explained what their company did clearly and showed us many different options of services from which to choose. After meeting with him, and seeing how much great customer service was such a priority for their company, it was really a no brainer to choose them, choosing anyone else would have been plain foolish. On our second visit, with future son-in-law in tow, we went through the wedding timeline and all that it entailed, George ever so patiently waiting for the bride and groom to finally make their song choices, even being gracious enough to change a couple after they got home and realized that they liked Song A better than Song B. I felt so bad about throwing that at him, but he took it all in stride and got it all worked out perfectly, always with a smile and a positive caring attitude. On the day of our wedding, we got to meet our DJ Cody, and he came all spiffed up, even though he didn't have to-especially in that sweltering 95 degree heat! He was wonderful, always energizing the crowd, checking to make sure the guests were having fun, and always checking with us before each event to make sure we were all on the same page and where we needed to be at that time. When the bride became overcome with the heat during the cake cutting time, he quickly (and quite smoothly) directed everyone back to the dance floor and made sure there was no awkwardness and confusion. He got our there on the dance floor with us and did the cha cha slide and made sure to encourage everyone to get on out on the dance floor and have fun. As if that wasn't enough, at the end of a very loooooong night, and AFTER he had already packed up all his equipment, he came into where the bride and groom where gathering up their things and getting ready to leave, where he then proceeded to strum a ukulele and serenade them with a very sweet medley of songs, which brought the bride to tears-happy tears, of course! (DJ Cody, you have a really nice voice!) I would HIGHLY recommend this company to everyone who is in need of a superior DJ service, you get waaaaay more than you pay for, that's for sure! read more

DJ George did our wedding this September and it was absolutely fantastic. We had a small area designated as the dance floor, but his energy and music selections had the entire room filled with people dancing until midnight. He played a great mix of music to accommodate parents and friends. He was also our MC and did an amazing job. He was a pleasure to work with and I would definitely recommend booking sounds in motions for your special day! read more

Where to start? DJ George is the absolute best DJ in the area and quite possibly in our entire state. At first we booked him because everyone said "if you can get DJ George, book him ASAP!" So we did. And thank god we did! The moment we met George, it was like we had been friends for years. He immediately listened to what we wanted for our wedding which was finding a perfect balance of traditional wedding party music with some traditional Assyrian wedding music. He nailed it. Absolutely nailed it. He is personable, outgoing, and amazing at what he does! Whatever type of wedding reception you want, George can deliver and will exceed what you wanted. There's no party like a DJ George party! He was extremely familiar with our venue, The River Mill, so it made me even more comfortable with him. He knew how the venue was ran, the perfect amount of uplighting that was needed, and how to set up everything for the ceremony and reception. After leaving our meeting with George and planning out the entire night, I knew I was going to have the most amazing night ever. Our wedding was absolutely perfect and everyone still raves about DJ George and how he created the perfect Assyrian/White people wedding! I would have changed my wedding date just to have DJ George. He is THAT amazing! read more

If you want a company that is professional, fun, enthusiastic and the best in our area- then you are picking the right place. We got married last month, we are still hearing from people how it was the most fun wedding they've ever been to! It wasn't because we had a bounce house or a party clown, but because we had the BEST DJ ever! George was the best DJ!!! Leading up to our wedding he met with us for 2 and a half hours to plan our song selection and how we wanted the night to flow, and he was just as excited for our wedding as we were (which you don't expect that from your DJ!) We had our reception in an old barn, and the power was going on and off for a solid 45 minutes, but George took such good care of us- he had brought his own generator for just in case and thank God he did! He handled everything so perfectly, and people were on the dance floor again in no time. We had 5 year olds to 85 year olds on that dance floor, and George had EVERYONE dancing!! One of the ladies I work with said her husband hasn't danced with her in 14 years (since their own wedding) and he was one of the craziest dancers of the night. People were dancing around the dance floor because everyone couldn't fit on the 30x30' dance floor and my husband's great aunts and grandma were dancing on hay bales! One of our friends was having so much fun, he payed for George for another hour and George stayed until almost 1:30 in the morning(he had people dancing from 8:00 pm-1:30 am nonstop!) Seriously if yours want your wedding to be unforgettable, pay the extra money and get George. He is the BEST!!!! We still keep in touch and he just has the biggest heart, and he will take care of you like it was his own sister getting married. We LOVE Sounds in Motion, and we LOVE DJ GEORGE!!! I wouldn't trust anyone else with our special events! read more

Sounds In Motion - DJs Near Me - Modesto, California

100% HANDS DOWN... BEST DJ there is, PERIOD! DJ George was absolutely amazing. He truly "made" our wedding. George had guests of ours up and out of their seats by the first intro lol. Got our guests dancing, laughing, having a blast! We had our wedding at a venue that only allowed a curfew until 11...AND our guests were so disappointed, they wanted more from George I honest don't know what or how our wedding may have been like, without George. It was definitely memorable because of him. George prior to the wedding sat with me, went over all of the music I wanted played...& he did not disappoint. Every venue respects and loves George! If you're looking to hire, I'd stop looking around and ONLY go to George. George is professional, positive & HAPPY.... he will definitely rub off on you and truly make your event so special. Thank You George! You are truly the best read more

Perfect! I knew the minute I met with this company that my wedding would go without an issue. They were more like an emcee/wedding planner/d.j. Everyone had a great time and they were on point with the music. Thank You! read more

Hands down amazing! From the moment Milani reached out to my inquiry for our wedding to our meeting with DJ George and our wedding with DJ Jason we knew we were in the best hands for our event. Milani answered all major and minor silly questions i had, DJ George really walked us through the timeline and choices for our events and gave extremely helpful tips and song choices to help the party and energy flow. Dj Jason didn't skip a beat he was absolutely incredible. I was nervous booking since you never know what will go wrong or right but i can't recommend them enough. Best decision ever was booking with Sounds in Motion! read more

These guys are the best! You can't go wrong with Jason or George! They just know how to pump a party up. I will say, though, I have been too a wedding where I recommended Sounds in Motion and they sent a guy named Jerry to do the wedding. He was forgettable, boring, and definitely didn't have the personality to DJ a wedding! So 5 stars because as long as you stick with the other guys you'll be golden! read more

Awesome DJ!!! Kept our event hopping with great song choices and fabulous sense of humor. We were completely happy with everything. Thank you read more

100% book them!! George is literally the best DJ in the business! I originally found him after attending a friends wedding and it was so much fun! Then when I got engaged I knew I wanted to book and he did not disappoint. All ages were dancing and people still talk about how awesome the DJ was!! Can't wait to attend another wedding with him as the DJ!! read more

This is hands down the best DJ company ever! I've worked with many companies and this one delivers the best and most reliable DJs. All the DJs a great. But George and Jason are one of a kind! I'll never use another company ever! read more

Cody DJ'd our wedding last weekend and did an amazing job! He was professional the whole time, but also added some fun sound effects to the best man's speech and made sure to help with the dinner service. I saw him chatting with many of the guests and making them laugh. It was almost like he was part of the family! Cody kept the hits coming through the night. I don't think the dance floor was ever empty! Thanks Cody for doing an amazing job and making our wedding the best day ever! read more

What can I say? A whole lot!!! George is the greatest, and we have had a pleasure doing business with him. Talk about a good time!!! If you are a Bride and Groom looking for a DJ in Califonia he is your guy. I'm a Wedding Planner and recommend him to all my clients, he even is a preferred vendor on our website. Do yourself a favor and hire someone that is going to say your names right! Going to play the right songs at the right times! Most of all someone that is going to Get the Party Popping! Hands down my favorite! read more

We had sounds in motion DJ and provide a photobooth for our wedding of about 200 people. They did an excellent job in communicating with us before the event and provided excellent service the day of. Our first meeting with George went off great, he was able to help us make a rough timeline of the entire day and was able to develop a playlist for the evening based off some of our recommendations. George knows his music and envisions the night as one big celebration. They recommended that we book a photobooth as well, and it turned out to be a hit. More on that to come. Although George did not DJ the wedding himself, his staff is well trained. They followed the timeline to a T and helped the reception run as smoothly as possible. The lighting and volume fit perfectly with the size of the room. When it came time to dance, the DJ knew exactly how to read the crowd and it was probably the best mix of songs we have heard at a reception. There was a little something for everyone and everyone was dancing. We told George from our first meeting that we trust what his company can do, and it paid off. Sounds in Motion knows how to make a party boogie. The photobooth was also awesome. The props were fun, the attendant was quick, and the photo strips had bigger photos that were more clear. The strips of three make the photos so much more special because you can see them without having to squint. The photobooth did not take up much space, which was helpful with our tight floor plan. Would highly recommend Sounds in Motion for any event, especially a wedding! Totally worth the price! read more

Was helpful , office sometimes lack communication .ceremony was the best ,very timely and smooth . For reception I wish it would have got a little more people dancing. that's why I went with the company because of personally knowing them and great reviews of having a great party . Songs weren't played as requested and to me it felt kicked back to see people leave . Instead of getting people to stay and get on the dance floor . Bride read more

I am not sure where I should even start with this review... I guess I'll go back to when I first learned about/experienced DJ George/SIM's professionalism, enthusiasm and amazing all around business... When I was in high school, a dance wasn't a dance without DJ George!! As part of the leadership crew at our high school, I know we did whatever it took to be able to have George as our dance DJ- including rescheduling dance dates if they conflicted with his schedule. I knew then that if and when I ever got married, I would never even consider having another company DJ my wedding. That time came and I got married last November. Sounds in Motion was one of the very first vendors I contacted- a year in advance. Being that George is as incredible as he is, he was already booked for my wedding date, such a bummer. :( I knew though that he would make sure and give us another DJ on the SIM team that would be amazing as well... Every single detail involving wedding planning was made so much easier and less stressful because of Sounds in Motion. From the second we sat down for our first meeting to discuss details with DJ George, I was at complete ease. He makes his clients feel more like friends than "just another couple." Even though he is crazy busy, and incredibly booked up, we still felt like we were the only wedding that mattered to him- true professionalism in the wedding industry. He spends more than enough time with each couple making sure he has every last tiny detail about the wedding to make sure the day is flawless. He also worked wonderfully with our photographer - it makes it so nice to know everyone involved is on the same schedule. We ended up with Jason as our wedding DJ. He was amazing- just another example of what a wonderful company Sounds in Motion is.. We hadn't met Jason until the day of our wedding, but just like George, he made us feel like we had been friends for years. He was perfect and he truly made our wedding the amazing experience that it was. From the time we arrived at the reception hall, until the last guest left the dance floor, Jason was all about US. He did everything a perfect DJ should. Looking back at our entire wedding experience, we feel so blessed to have had Sounds in Motion be such a huge part of it...Wedding planning wasn't really my thing, it was pretty stressful. There are very few parts of the planning process that I can look back at and smile... Working with Sounds in Motion was definitely one of them. :) read more

We had Glenn as our DJ at our wedding this last April and he was awesome! Everyone at Sounds in Motion is great! We had a few meetings in their offices to work out what we wanted, and they were so courteous helping us out. Everyone we met made us feel welcome. I love how they have a timeline for your wedding to make things run smoothly for you. My guest said they had an amazing time at our wedding, and we had our dance floor packed almost the entire time! My calves were killing me the next day from dancing so much! =) The DJ's here are the way to go for any event where you may need one! read more

I work for Del Rio Country Club, we use Sounds In Motion for all our events. We just had a Fall Carnival on Tuesday, which we requested to book a DJ last minute. Sounds In Motion was able to accommodate our late request and we could not be happier with the service that they have provided us here at the club. Thanks Sounds In Motion. read more

Was extremely pleased with sounds in motions for my wedding! Very professional and gave us everything we wanted and more! Kept the wedding so smooth flowing we had extra time for dancing at the end which is exactly what we were hoping for! read more

If I could give more then 5 stars I totally would! We hired DJ George for our wedding last month in June. Let me just say, George is AMAZING!! He's super outgoing, professional, detail oriented, and very versatile and knows his music very well. Our wedding was multi cultural (Mexicans and Americans) and he knew the music to play to keep ALL of our guests on the dance floor including myself and my husband ( who isn't much of a dancer I might add) I was a little nervous in the beginning just having a DJ play at our wedding & not having a live band but George made up for it and so much more! He is literally the best and so very worth it! From the beginning when you have your initial appointment with him to the very end of your wedding night! We got sooooo many compliments about how great our DJ & music was from all our guests young and old! My husband and I could not have been more happy with him! Thank you so very much!!!! read more

Sounds in motion and DJ George are the greatest. You rocked the wedding. Look no other place for a DJ.

DJ Alvin was amazing at our wedding at Galas Barn last weekend. We LOVED working with him, he kept the crowd engaged and played the best music! DJ George was also great to work with throughout the planning process. We would definitely recommend Sounds in Motion to our friends. read more

Whose the best DJ in all of California? George Gonzalez, that's who! George will make your wedding or even one that people will be taking about for years!!!! I am fortunate to have had him work his wonders at my wedding and it was AMAZING!!!! The entire process with George was fun and easy start to finish! I cannot recommend him enough! Everyone is still talking about my wedding and it was over 6 months ago and what they are talking about is George! read more

Underwhelmed with Sounds In Motion! 1. We had to wait for almost an hour on every set appointment we have with the owner of the company 2. He does not want to listen to how we want our wedding program to turn out but instead want to use their own same program for all the wedding parties that they have done. 3. They only cater the "Bride and Groom" parties, they are not accustomed to servicing Gay Weddings. Their templates are not customized. Information requested is only specific to Bride and Groom. We are a gay couple and the template does not fit our background and needs. 4. The DJ they sent was late in setting up their equipment for both the ceremony and reception. 5. The DJ handed the work of fixing the picture slideshow to a member of the family instead of them being accountable. 6. Most of the songs requested were not played. 7. The DJ cancelled my entertainer's set to sing during the reception. 8. When we had the final meeting for the wedding preparations. The actual DJ was not available for the discussion. The owner of the company instead kept blabing about his other businesses instead of focusing on our needs. 9. The owner was so insincere and unprofessional with how he conducts business. 10. Being in the technological era, they are still requesting for disks instead of usb or ftp type of transferring the pictures to use for the slideshow. Overall, if you want a cookie cutter and mediocre type of service go ahead and pay the overpriced charges for their below average services. read more
