Mark Addington Events

5.0

Mountain House, CA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,600
  • Serves Aptos, CA

I’m Mark Addington, owner, founder, emcee, DJ, public speaker, and most importantly…creative at heart. I started my DJ career over 20 years ago for fun and fell in love with it along the way. My goal is to make this choice a simple, informed and fun part of the wedding process. I’m here to communicate and plan pre-wedding so you and your guests can leave it all on the dancefloor the day of the wedding.

For starter, Mark was super helpful with everything from start to finish. We weren't sure of what direction we wanted to go and Mark made is so much easier by giving ideas and suggestions but was receptive of what me and my husband wanted. Being Indian, i wanted to make sure all my Jams were a part of the playlist and boy did Mark deliver!! EVERYTHING was mixed so perfectly. Made me so Happy! During the event Mark came thru. He was ready and on point with everything from dinner, first dance to cake cutting. I was able to relax because i knew Mark got it. As far as the dance floor he kept the party going. Overall not only did we love Mark but so did ALL of our guest.

Joey Chang was instrumental in conducting our wedding ceremony and our wedding reception. He brought the highest level of musicianship, ceremony, and professionalism to our special day, making it sing! Joey played classical cello music before our ceremony, for the processional, and during our ceremony. Each music piece was selected for its contribution to the orchestration of the whole nuptial service and brought out and accompanied the feeling of the moment. Joey also played both classical and contemporary live cello (many of his original pieces) at our reception during dinner, creating a warm, welcoming, and nuanced atmosphere. Additionally, offering his multitalented presence, Joey served as our master of ceremonies for the reception. His timing and transitions and delivery were as deft at the microphone as they were at the cello, never missing a beat. Not only that but he also served as DJ for our wedding reception dance party. Working with our established playlist, he brought out the playful and reflective moments of the night, providing music to accompany the entrance, the first dance, the father daughter and mother son dance, and the bouquet toss. He worked magic! Our wedding and its celebration were a work of art, and Joey Chang was a principal artist in its creation. Joey was reliable and dependable in all of our preparations every step along the way; not only was he punctual and prepared, he helped to adapt to the changes in the moment on our special day, capably and flexibly responding to the schedule as it evolved throughout the five and a half hour reception. Joey Chang is a multi talented musician and artist who brought style and poise as well as containment and sheer beauty to our wedding day with his presence at the cello, at the microphone, and at the DJ table. - Willow & Daniel Event Date: June 18th, 2022 Services Provided: Cellist, Variety Entertainer, Wedding DJ

I am a wedding and event planner and have worked with Jackie Gage on multiple occasions. As a planner, there are a few things we always look for in the event professionals we work with: ease of communication, kindness, team players, easy to work with, excel and are passionate about their craft. Jackie checks off all these boxes and much more! Jackie is always warm and welcoming in her communications, it was so easy to plan together. On event days, Jackie is communicative and works seamlessly with our team with the common goal of making sure the day runs smoothly. And her singing music is amazing!

We worked with DJ JaronB for our October 2023 wedding ceremony and reception. He was great! There was a thorough planning document provided which helped us break down the music we wanted to hear into sections of the day. We had a beach ceremony and the equipment that was set up for the ceremony was loud enough for us hear the music and what people were saying on the mic even tho the ocean was really loud. The reception was fun! Vibes were great for cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. We recommend working w DJ JaronB, thanks for adding so much fun to our event!

We were so impressed with our DJ/MC Diego, as well as the rest of the Second Song team! Everyone was very friendly and personable, they made planning the music so easy and we were able to collaborate through Google Docs and Spotify. We loved that we were also able to meet our DJ before the big day at their Open House, just to get to know each other and talk about the vibe we wanted for each part of the wedding. On the day of they were on time and professional, but still brought that energy! I would highly recommend them to any newly engaged couples planning their wedding.
