Spencer is such an amazing DJ! I have only positive things to say about him. He is calm, organized, structured, kind, and professional. He is able to read the room and adjust accordingly. There were no awkward lulls at our wedding thanks to him. He kept a great flow to both our ceremony and reception. I have never seen so many people dance at a wedding! My friends aren't dancers, so the fact that he got all of them out there was amazing! We gave him a list of songs we liked, and he was able to choose great songs from there. He also kept the dance floor fun and upbeat. He was the most organized person at the wedding. He did the microphones and speakers for our friends who played the violin for the ceremony and the person ordaining. He also did the lighting (which was magical). I cannot even say in words what a great experience we had. All of our guests told us later that he was amazing too!

Manny and his team were amazing. Before the wedding he made sure to ask if we wanted specific songs for different parts of the ceremony and reception. We didn’t have a ton of specific songs, but we made a list of music with the vibes we wanted. Manny took the list, ran with it, and really took care of us. The dance floor was packed all night! He even played Tagalog pop songs and managed sound for a Filipino folk dance group. We also loved the little details like the template for our photo booth photos, the lights for the dance floor, and our initials projected on the wall. Thank you Bay Pro DJs, we’re so glad that you were there to help make our wedding so special.

DJ Ashley was extraordinary to work with! She was so professional from the first consultation to the last, and we could tell she is an expert in what she does. Fog City Entertainment was the only business who seemed interested and enthusiastic about our music choices. It finally felt like we were having a conversation about music instead of a stilted correspondence about pricing. We had a lot of very specific music requests for our wedding (unusual first dance choice, very specific versions of processional songs, etc). Ashley was able to create custom remixes/mashups for us and provided them before our wedding so we could rehearse! We screened many DJs and a lot of them had strange personalities and energy that we didn't want to be the voice of our wedding. But Ashley is the total opposite of that! She instantly made us feel comfortable during our initial call, and continued to provide ease and flexibility up to and throughout our wedding. She also has a great platform for organizing your wedding music. She was masterful at managing the music and pace of the wedding, and despite some challenges with weather and setup, she handled it perfectly and worked great with our coordinator. Our guests even commented on her really great voice when making announcements. Her music selections were on point and overall she and her team were great to work with. What more could anyone ask for? Highly, highly recommend. Oh, and who doesn’t love a woman run business in a man's industry?

Awarded Best of Zola
Wow - let's start with that. We weren't sure if we wanted a band or a DJ for our wedding. We love music, so a live band was appealing but we also wanted the flexibility of song choice that DJs typically give you. Why not get both? Paul, Sebastian, and the Golden Bell team are insanely good at what they do. 100% flexibility in the planning process, discerning advice when you need it most, and incredibly talented musicians meant that we got a dance party we envisioned. Paul even made Beach Boys, Caamp, and James Taylor mashups for our first dances with each other, mother, and father!!! Who does that? We can't thank the Golden Bell team enough for making our reception an absolute blast. Book Golden Bell and never look back!

Richard was awesome. We talked to him a few times to work out some ideas and I sent him a quick playlist I drew up and he said he would take it from there. He nailed exactly what we were going for and people had a great time all night. The guitar set he played at cocktail hour was perfect as well.

My husband and I got married on April 10, 2023 at the Brazilian Room at Tilden Park in Berkeley, CA. Rice Entertainment provided the photobooth for the reception. I was on the fence about getting a photobooth for the wedding but I am SO glad we did! I was such a hit with our guests - everyone loved it. Brandon was so professional and great to work with. Leading up to the big day we had a quick 20-30 min meeting to discuss the wedding colors and our vision. Brandon created a mockup of the background and print outs based on the theme that had our hashtag on it, which was such a cute take-home for our guests. Brandon and his attendant were there all night to support as needed. The photobooth itself was pretty high-end - we were able to do videos, boomerangs, photos, etc. He also brought props to take photos with which were very cute. So, so much fun and definitely worth it! 10/10 recommend.

Alameda, CA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,250

We are an elite team of professional event planners, audio/visual technicians, chefs, and DJs who share Zhaldee’s passion for food, music, and community. You can trust our 25+ years of experience to help you create exciting, vibrant events and memories!

We live in San Francisco and got married in Cabo, MX. There are good DJs in Cabo, but we knew we wanted Zhaldee to fly down and DJ our wedding. We had intricate music for the ceremony, dinner, bridal party intros and parent-dances. It required quite a bit of music cutting and customization--Zhaldee nailed it all and we wouldn't have had the wedding we did without his expertise. He's great at reading the crowd and playing music to keep the party going! Whatever vibe you're going for, he's got it. Whatever crowd he's playing to, he knows how to work it. He's communicative, responds quickly, and I always felt assured that he was on top of everything. He showed up to the wedding looking professional and appropriately formal. He also worked great with my wedding coordinator and local AV technicians. Highly recommend!

We love to share the fun, complexity, and intimacy of chamber music with new audiences.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a wedding in July 2019 and wanted to have live music played at the ceremony and cocktail hour. Bay Area Strings did not disappoint. Jen Mathers was highly responsive during the process and very easy to communicate throughout the planning process, which goes a long way. She provided us with a list of songs the group would be able to play for us, samples of performances, and a list of options for ensemble. We chose a string quartet and the pricing was very reasonable. We had requested a song that wasn't on the playlist and Jen had the ensemble learn the sheet music - beyond thrilled! The music was breathtaking and our wedding ceremony would not have been the same without the group's performance. Looking back at our wedding day, the live music is something we will always remember, thanks to Jen and Bay Area Strings.
