Spencer came highly recommended by our venue owner and hiring him for our wedding was the BEST decision we made. He’s thorough, professional, knowledgeable, friendly, easy going and a pleasure to work with. He was patient as we navigated the process and worked closely with us to create amazing playlists. We also had him play guitar during the reception and it was magnificent! Finally, when we asked for some last-minute changes, he accommodated them with grace and understanding. We recommend Spencer with our highest level of enthusiasm!!

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.

We got the diamond package I believe (includes Photo Booth). We needed a bilingual dj and so we had Jose at our wedding and he did an amazing job!! We loved using Fog City and would highly recommend. Jose made time to meet with us via zoom several times before the wedding and cut songs for us. The Photo Booth was amazing and our guests loved it!

Runaway Dj & Lighting

5.0

Santa Rosa, CA
  • DJ

Jon Moore & David Craven (Co-Owners & brothers!) Have operated one of the top mobile entertainment companies in the Sonoma-Napa Wine Country for over 20 years! We believe it’s our attention to detail that sets us apart from most other mobile DJs. Our goal is to exceed your expectations every time! Our company is based on the belief that our customer’s needs come first. Our entire Runaway DJ team is committed to meeting and exceeding those needs. As a result, a high percentage of our business is from repeat customers and referrals.

We couldn't have been happier with the DJ we chose for our wedding. Runaway DJ was a recommendation from our photographer, Sarah Peterson. From the start, their communication was exceptional, making planning a breeze. They even worked with our venue’s wedding coordinator to ensure they met the venue’s sound requirements before we signed our DJ contract with them. They provided a worksheet that helped us organize our music preferences, ensuring there were no surprises on the day of. We had two scheduled phone calls: one initial phone meeting to discuss our vision and one phone meeting a few weeks before our wedding to finalize the run of show. Most of our communications were through email, where our DJ (David Craven) efficiently responded every time. During our last phone meeting, we reviewed the DJ worksheet and were able to specify specific songs/music for each part of our special day. On the day of the wedding, David arrived nice and early to set up sound for the outdoor ceremony, patio cocktail hour, and indoor reception. He seamlessly incorporated our requests and quickly found any songs we asked for. He even went above and beyond by working with our officiant (a family member), ensuring the ceremony's processional timing and microphone volume was perfect. For the ceremony, David provided a lavalier mic for our officiant, allowing her to be hands-free and ensuring her words were heard clearly. He also provided our officiant with a wireless microphone to hold for us while we each said our written vows so our guests could hear them clearly. During the ceremony, he flawlessly transitioned between our two processional songs and one recessional song, creating a beautiful and memorable moment. The lighting provided by the Runaway DJ was also fantastic, with lasers and uplighting creating a fun atmosphere that encouraged even the most reluctant dancers to hit the dance floor. Speaking of which, despite not being dancers ourselves, David had us and our guests dancing for hours! Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better DJ experience for our wedding.

I wouldn't change anything about my experience with Second Song. The portal was easy to use. The videos giving a preview of each DJ who was available on the day of our wedding helped me choose. DJ Lyn was fantastic and provided exactly the energy we were hoping for. Several wedding guests asked for his name for their own events in the future. The price point was even or slightly below the other DJs we talked with.

  • Serves Rutherford, CA

Right from our initial communication, Jamie was great to work with. He took the time to really understand our musical preferences and the vibe we wanted for our wedding. His attention to detail and dedication to creating the perfect playlist was truly commendable. Prior to the wedding, I had compiled a playlist of 400 songs and was so happy to hear some deep cuts from that list during the wedding. Jamie’s use of vinyl records added a unique and nostalgic touch to the evening. He also seamlessly incorporated our family's cultural music, showing his flexibility and commitment to making everyone feel included and connected to the celebration. During the cocktail hour, our guests were already on the dance floor, and that was all thanks to Jamie's incredible energy and music selection. He had a fantastic ability to gauge the crowd's mood and adjust the music accordingly, ensuring that the dance floor was never empty. In the end, I can confidently say that Jamie was worth every penny. He played a pivotal role in making our wedding a roaring success and the best day ever. His professionalism, talent, and ability to connect with the crowd were second to none. Our wedding wouldn't have been the same without him, and for that, we are eternally grateful. If you're looking for a DJ who will exceed your expectations, create a fantastic atmosphere, and leave your guests raving about the music, look no further. DJ Jamie is a true gem and will undoubtedly make your special day even more memorable. Thank you, Jamie, for making our wedding an unforgettable celebration!
