  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,300
  • Serves Carlsbad, CA

I've been djing since I was 15 years old. I had a fascination for parties and events at an early age. I tagged along with my brother who dj'd at house parties back in the early 80's. I was hooked after seeing how much joy the music brought out in the crowd. I started buying my own 12" records, and it evolved into doing my own gigs: house parties, jr. high & high school dances, colleges, raves, underground parties, night clubs, weddings, corporate events, and so on. I started my DJ business in 1987, and have been honing my craft now for 3 decades. Thirty plus years later, I continue to love what I do. Now let's get the party started.

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

DJ Frank and his team have over 20 years and hundreds of weddings worth of professional experience. They are knowledgable and passionate about music. They provide top notch personal service to each and every client. The entire team is comprised of special event experts and highly trained MCs.

Our DJ Mauro was AMAZING. We got married and I can’t imagine how different it would have been not having him there! From the planning meetings, rehearsal, and the big day he was so professional and fun to work with. He had the best vibe and all of our guests loved him. He put together the best playlist for our ceremony, we asked him for instrumental emo music and he absolutely nailed it! He helped us stay on track with our reception timeline and we are so appreciative. He truly was the best!

Sound Prodigy and DJ Pat was awesome to work. The app he had us use to add music to so he could get a feel for what we like was very easy to use. He’s clearly very experienced and knew how to get the crowd energized and keep the dance floor packed all night. Their intuitive sense of the vibe and flow of the evening was spot on, and they kept the music going seamlessly through all the key moments. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ to make our wedding celebration so memorable. We also booked a photo bus through him and I highly recommend that. Our guests had a great time taking pictures and you get both physical and digital copies and we had so much fun looking through everyone’s photos after the wedding. Highly recommend!

GE Productions is the industry leader in California. We have an elite team of three DJs who combine over 40 years of experience. We define professionalism and separate ourselves from the competition with our dedication to achieving the clients vision. Our detailed and step by step process ensures that at the end of the day we exceed all expectations by creating everlasting memories. Our awards and reputation are unparalleled, however without amazing, energetic clients and their guests who LOVE to dance, we are nothing.

Awarded Best of Zola
As a wedding planner, I've worked with GE Productions on countless weddings for years. He consistently delivers professional, customized service and cares for each of his clients. In his planning process, DJ Jimmy Grizzley is incredibly thorough regarding song selection for the most important moments of the wedding day. During the event, he will never push play on a playlist and step away from his DJ station. He curates music and actively mixes it together on site keeping energy high and your guests on the dance floor. He works well with other vendors following timelines meticulously. As the coordinator hired for Alex M's wedding (see below), I'm confused by the disappointment expressed. Alex's guests danced the entire reception. The cake cutting was both announced, staged, documented, and well-attended. He played their special song during the process as well. These clients were challenging, but DJ Jimmy Grizzley knocked it out of the park as usual!

DJ Joseph was great!! I recently had him DJ (and his son helped out at the photo booth) for my wedding this past weekend. From start to finish, DJ Joseph brought incredible energy, kept the dance floor going, and made the entire evening flow seamlessly. He was professional, communicated well, and was able to make changes when we asked for it. The music selection was great—he took our playlist and added and took away songs (with our permission) that kept all ages dancing. Our guests are still talking about how fun the reception was, and we know DJ Joseph played a huge role in that! His lights and photobooth add ons were perfect too, it was a HUGE hit with my guests. Thank you so much Joseph!! :)

Her ability to engage the audience and create a joyful atmosphere was nothing short of extraordinary. She seamlessly blended various genres, catering to the diverse tastes of my guests, and her warm personality made everyone feel right at home. If you're looking for a talented musician who can elevate any event, I wholeheartedly endorse Dawn Mitschele.

Our wedding was a BLAST due in large part to the band keeping the dance floor packed the whole time. We were told by so many of our guests that The Mighty Untouchables were not only the best wedding band they had ever heard, but one of the best bands period (and that they would pay to see them live again, even outside the wedding context). We agree! Beyond their musical talent, The Mighty Untouchables were so kind to my husband and I on our big day, along with all of our guests. I am so thankful we got to work together.
