WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING?
"THE BEST &
EPIC DAY!"
more >
I always ask what is the one word they want people to describe their wedding: usually its "EPIC". They truly want a great experience for their guests. And with my creativity, music experience, knowledge, and production background I'm usually able to create the wedding experience of their dreams. It's more than just playing music. Moments don't just happen... They are created!
Aloha,

"awesome & fun"
Joe is an awesome guy who made our wedding so much fun! He was able to keep the music and party going effortlessly. He himself was helpful and explaining in detail what we should expect and made us have no worries at all! It was also great that he had photobooth addons which made it easier to deal with just one vendor for both rather than multiple. I highly recommend Joe if you are in Maui needing a great DJ!

"Best emcee/DJ for your wedding"
Kristina C.
From our very first meeting all the way to our big day, Joe was very down to earth and easy to communicate with. Joe takes his time getting to know you and what you want and offers suggestions that may improve the flow of the reception. Since we had been planning our wedding during a pandemic, Joe made the process very easy and most importantly stress free. Joe and his team was able to raise the energy level of the guests and was able to keep the guests engaged throughout the night. They made everyone feel welcome, relaxed, and everyone had a great time. One of our best wedding planning decisions.
I love creating big moments, and lighting & special effects helps us do exactly that. Our sparklers shoot 8 feet up into the air, and our Dancing on Clouds low-lying fog hugs the floor during your First Dance, making for a spectacular display of your love.
Adds a personal touch to your wedding. From the emotional grand entrance to engaging dinner conversations, we create a warm and inclusive atmosphere.
As the celebration moves to the dance floor, I ensure a seamless flow, and during games and fun moments, we strike the perfect balance of humor and sentiment, making each moment uniquely memorable.

Experience a magical wedding soundtrack tailored to your style. From the grand entrance to dancing, our DJ crafts a seamless and diverse playlist. Elevate your dinner with soothing tunes and ensure a lively dance floor with crowd-pleasing tracks. Games and fun moments are orchestrated with precision, making your celebration unforgettable.
premier dj
As an experienced MC, I know when to heighten emotion and engage the crowd. As a nightlife DJ who headlined for 10+ years, I read the crowd like no other, set moods, and keep the dancefloor lit!
But don’t take my word for it.
Let my work and client experience show you what I’m capable of...
From the moment you walk down the aisle to the very last dance, the DJ (music) and MC (host) will set the tone of your entire wedding.
