    Picked our wedding date based off DJ Solstice's availability!


    One non-negotiable for our wedding: having DJ Solstice as our DJ. We even chose our wedding date based off his availability! We were talking to Matt at the same time we were booking our venue, and when we learned he was booked for the date we were thinking about, we pivoted immediately.

    Matt really understood the vibe we were going for which was alllllllll over the place lol (Hannah Montana, E40, One Direction, Morgan Wallen, David Guetta, NOTD, Cheat Codes, Gryffin, Backstreet Boys and so much more).

    He is so easy to work with and is very responsive. He is also sooo hype and really knows how to work the crowd.

    Our friends were talking about how lit, hype, and fun our DJ was. Felt like we were at a music festival. Many of them asked for the playlist! Our older relatives were talking about how seamless everything was and how there was always music as they traveled from the ceremony area to the cocktail area to the reception area.

    Matt offers many packages and is a one-stop shop. We love how in addition to his DJ services, we also had a cute personalized light up sign, and photobooth (DSLR quality). Although our venue didn’t allow it, he also offers sparklers, lasers and fog/smoke machines!

    Matt’s setup was clean and matched the aesthetic. We really like how he offers different setup options based off the venue style or the color scheme (white vs black setup).

    Highly recommend booking DJ Solstice for your wedding or next event! You will not regret it!

    Dj solstice is incredible!

    My spouse and I met at Coachella and Matt understood the assignment. He threw us an epic Coachella-style party for our wedding. Everyone danced all night and didn't want the party to end. He created a great environment and people of all ages we're celebrating with us on the dance floor.

    We've received compliments from all our wedding guests about the fun party. Matt's DJ and MC performance was amazing that kept the energy up all night. He mixed songs flawlessly and kept people on the dance floor.

    Matt is a real DJ. He is talented and professional. We highly recommend him for your wedding.

    THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR GIVING US A NIGHT WE WILL NEVER FORGET!!!

    Amazing Professional DJ Matt!!!

    Matt was our wedding DJ this past weekend and he was amazing! He was super professional and fun. We had some last minute change on the day of wedding and he was able to accommodate the requests with no issues. Matt's photobooth was also super fun! All the guest commented how professional Matt was and it definitely made our wedding special! I would highly recommend Matt for anyone looking for a DJ for any special event especially a wedding!!!

    The BEST ever!

    Had such an amazing time, DJ Solstice always matched the ambiance perfectly and definitely brought the vibes all together. Loved the way he was able to stick to our preferred music while also tying in his own style. Got the party going and kept it going all night! Thanks again, we had an amazing time. :)

    The best dj!

    DJ Solstice was incredible! Being an older couple from Texas, we had lots of regional Texan music and freestyle songs we wanted along with Salsa, Merengue, Cumbia, and Reggaeton. He mixed it perfectly, had the dance floor going all night (4 hours!). He met us at the venue a month out to go over setup and placement, which we admired being not from the state. Lighting made it look beautiful. Thank you so much

    Photobooth was a HIT!

    We hired them to provide photobooth services for my daughter's wedding - they brought a premium product with incredible-quality prints, featuring a floral wall backdrop that blended in with the decor. Our guests (and us) loved it and it added that extra element to the night to mek it unforgettable. Also proivided us with a USB of all pictures right after the event! Now that is service. Thank you my friend.

    Summer Solstice

    Matt, Solstice really does get the wedding party going. His connection with the crowd is above and beyond what I expected at the event. I was lucky enough to call him my partner for the evening as I took over the reigns as MC whilst he delivered tune after tune, keeping the atmosphere electric as we all reached for the lasers. The stars really did align for Solstice. A joy.

    The best DJ ever

    We hired DJ Solstice for my daughter's 18th Debut. Very professional, has the best DJ equipment from lighting, speaker system, to laser light animation. Our dance floor was packed. I highly recommend him for any DJ service. I will definitely hire him again for our next event. Thank you DJ Solstice for your exceptional service.

    A snow-filled magic wedding!

    We had a great experience with Matt! He was very professional and easy to work with. he answered calls and emails promptly and was super organized with our music requests. He showed up early and was very prepared. His DJ booth was very neutral and upscale and went well with the wedding venue. He kept the events moving along and was very personable and fun. The music and dancing was fun and he even brought some snow! We would definitely work with him again and recommend him to others!

    DJ Solstice's reply:

    Thank you Carrie! It was so amazing to be able to provide a winter wonderland theme to your daughter’s wedding. Snow ❄️ really does make things better and I can’t wait to see the epic footage!

    They showed up!

    We found DJ Solstice last minute when our wedding dj fell through and let me tell you they SHOWED UP! From the first phone call to booking him to our actual wedding day, we had the most seamless and professional experience! The options that they offer to make sure your big day is going to go off with a bang! We had an intimate backyard wedding and wanted the DJ to capture the essence of good music with all our love ones and they did just that plus more! The backyard got transformed into the most beautiful venue and the setup they brought along exceeded our expectations! From the Ceremony to the Reception we had such an amazing flow as he emceed the whole event. To top it off surprised the heck out of us with these sparkler machine going off when the music got to its peek! I’m so grateful that I found them and how amazing they ended up being. Seriously look no further for your DJ for any event! They really turned it up and made our day the best day ever!!! Thanks to Matt and his team you guys are seriously phenomenal. If I could give this review 100 stars I would!!

    DJ Solstice's reply:

    Wow! What a truly amazing review. We were so happy to be able to provide the perfect vibe and some special surprises to this backyard wedding

    Even grandpa danced!

    We hired DJ Solstice for our engagement party at a golf course, and I told him that people were probably not gonna dance, but if they did then great. Well let me tell you, after all the formalities he got on the mic and got everyone to the dance floor and they stayed out there until the end of the party. Until you've seen your 80 year old grandpa drop it low to Flo Rida, you haven't truly lived HAHA. Can't wait to have Matt DJ our actual wedding later this year!

    The one DJ I actually LIKED!

    I want to thank DJ Solstice for making my daughters wedding fantastic. I attended 4 weddings this year and was disappointed in 3 of the DJs. In fact, at my other daughters wedding the company refunded our total fee due to their lack of preparation and execution. DJ Solstice communicated many times as pre-event planning. He was on time and fully ready on time. He executed in his role as MC perfectly and his choices during dancing met everyone’s needs.

    I highly recommend his services.
    Rick

    DJ Solstice's reply:

    Thanks Rick! So happy to be able to provide everything you were looking for and then some! Congratulations to your daughter too!

    DJ Solstice Was Incredible!

    DJ Solstice and his crew were incredible. They allow you to choose different packages and we went with a full production (light towers, sound crew, lasers, fog, etc). Everyone was talking about the dance party for weeks to come. I didn't need to give DJ Solstice and his team very much direction. They were professional and great at MC'ing (different over talk) and precise on all the deliverables. Their sound system was crisp and clear for all the speeches and ceremony. They set up equipment in 3 different areas with ease and showed up early to make sure everything was perfect. I highly recommend working with DJ Solstice.

    DJ Solstice's reply:

    Thank you so much! Your wedding was truly one of our favorites and everyone had a killer time. I invite readers of this review to check out the recap video on our Instagram page at djsolstice

    We TWERKED the night away!

    I can’t believe it took my this long to write a review, but this time I finally did it when I got the review request! Solstice was the DJ for our wedding last Fall, and was provided by the venue after our original DJ had a conflict and couldn’t make it. We were a little nervous but they assured us we’d be in good hands. And were we ever! Super professional, handled everything smoothly, made the venue look gorgeous with uplighting and the firework things were a nice touch. He played bangers (NO CHEESY/LAME MUSIC) and we twerked the night away, it was such a blast. Thank you so much for playing such a vital role in our uber-successful special day!

    Such an amazing night of music!

    We hired DJ Solstice to DJ our socially distanced, fully masked, small intimate wedding last Fall on a private property in a county where numbers were low. He informed us early on that he was high-risk and may have his DJ business partner perform instead. He assured us we'd be in good hands and well, we most definitely were! Josh was such an amazing DJ, MC, and host - everyone stayed dancing (6 ft apart) the whole time and there were no awkward dead moments. Top notch variety of music tailored to our desires and mixed super smooth. Great ambiance and energy with the lighting as well. Perfect! Thanks!

    DJ Solstice's reply:

    Thank you! Your wedding was one for the books. Safe and fun! Congratulations to the two of you. Josh is an incredibly talented member of our team and we hear nothing but the best from the weddings and events he DJs.

    Just perfect!

    DJ Solstice was the DJ for my wedding this past month, and I can honestly say nothing but the absolute BEST about him and his performance/skills! He was so easy to communicate with and plan everything out, and I felt comfortable leaving the event in his hands (we didn't have a coordinator and Matt and his assistant stepped up and tackled that). He had the dance floor filled the whole night, and played a wide range of songs we requested. Everyone commented about how amazing of a party it was! Thanks DJ Solstice for making it the wedding of our dreams.

    DJ Solstice's reply:

    Hey Jennifer,

    We LOVED DJing your wedding! Your guys came ready to party it up and that's what we enjoy more than anything. Happy to step in and coordinate where/when necessary and make the announcements to keep the flow of the event. Congratulations!

    Absolutely rocked it!

    We found DJ Solstice on YouTube actually and loved the way he read the crowd and played a variety of music to keep everyone on the dance floor, as well as his really cool lighting and shooting sparkler machines! It was the most memorable first dance with those firing in the background, and all our guests had their jaws on the floor with how beautiful it looked. His setup is top notch, and DJ booth is very pretty in pictures, unlike some other DJs we've seen with cables and mess everywhere.

    Had everyone dancing all night, and our guests aren't normally big on dancing! So many compliments and people asking for his info after the wedding. Couldn't be happier with how my perfect day went. Thanks Matt!

    Dj solstice - highly recommend

    DJ Solstice was amazing through every step of the wedding planning process with prompt responses and clear communication. He was low maintenance and very professional the day of the wedding. His music and mixes went above and beyond our expectations and made the dancing fun and memorable for all of our guests. Highly, highly, highly recommend for your wedding.

    Wonderful to work with

    DJ Solstice was wonderful to work with and threw us the best reception we could have imagined! We had a few hiccups with music we sent him not working, and he was quick to find a solution that worked well. He was very responsive and easy to communicate with as our wedding day approached and was very organized. He did a fantastic job MC’ing for us and everyone danced the night away thanks to him! I was shocked how full the dance floor was from the moment it opened until the very last song. We highly recommend him!

    We can’t recommend this DJ enough! He had all of our guests on the dance floor the whole night. There wasn’t one song that the dance floor was empty. He kept everyone on their feet and was prompt on announcing every little event on our timeline. He played all of our important songs on our playlist we gave him. We had so many guests ask me for his information for events. We will definitely be using him in the future for any and all important events! He was such a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend DJ Solstice!!

    One heck of a party!

    Wow! There aren't enough good things I could say about DJ Solstice without making this a novel, so I'll just touch on a few. He is BY FAR, the BEST DJ you could ever ask for. He was extremely professional, easy to work with, personable, always super quick to respond and make any last minute changes, and played awesome music. The dance floor was packed the whole night. I had so many guests come up to us after the event and say how much they loved the wedding and more specifically the music. He also has some really cool lighting that helped set a great ambiance and vibe, and during dancing it was high-energy and went with the music.

    What was also great, was just how easy it was to get him any must-plays or do-not-plays, as he sends this excellent pointed email to get everything he needs and our wants. No forms or separate apps to download. Thanks again!!! You made our wedding day perfect :)
