About Cello Joe Productions

Cello Joe Productions

Musician and DJ

Create an unforgettable experience for your family and friends by hiring Cello Joe to play at your wedding! Take the stress out of planning and trust the music to a pro. From welcoming music before the ceremony, to the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and dancing, Cello Joe can handle it all for you. From classical cello to alternative, funky, beatbox cello grooves to DJing a dance party, Cello Joe can perform for ceremonies, cocktail hours, and dance parties.

I bring a lot of energy to my DJ work. I work with the couple to curate their favorite songs for dancing: both fast and slow partner dances. I can bring as much or as little hype on the mic as the couple wants. I generally like to stay off the mic for my personal style and let the music and mixing speak for itself. As far as what sets me apart, I am extremely punctual and arrive as early as possible for setup. In all the years I have been doing weddings, I have never been late to a wedding! I have a professional lighting package.

  • I didn't want just music, I wanted an Experience

    What an amazing experience working with Joey. He was very thoughtful in curating the music for our day and I hope you find what you are looking for with him. I am a wedding vendor of 15 years as well doing hair, makeup and morning concierge. One of my past brides at one of my most favorite venues to work at is how I was introduced to Joey. After coming out of the hair room I love taking a moment to walk around the venue and there he was playing the cello along with some background music. I was hooked. I love that he was incorporating songs of today with the art of an instrument. I found it unique and something I wanted to showcase at my wedding. I didn’t want people to walk up to just music playing in the space, but an experience. Joey took the time to do 2 calls with us, one being over the phone and the second being over zoom. He came with a detailed questionnaire of how we wanted our wedding to go. It was so detailed that even a music mood girl I didn’t even think of. The calls were scheduled for 30 minutes but he didn’t hesitate to chat with me for over an hour on how I wanted it to be curated. I had already started 2 wedding playlists, but he added and sent me 5 to 6 albums to fill out of songs I loved and wanted. I had over 10 hours of music to play and not only did he take those into consideration he added music that my guests also requested. He even accepted me saying change this song and only play the 10 year olds music every 10 songs He needed to set up in two spaces, one for the ceremony which was outside on our property. He was set up and playing by the time guests arrived. Everyone I spoke with loved the music selection, which I told him “Bridgerton vibes” and he ran with it. After the ceremony his assistant had music playing for the cocktail hour while they broke down the equipment in the ceremony area. I was blown away by the lights that were brought and the look of everything. Microphones worked for speeches and he even had a stand for those who wanted to use them. We didn’t do a traditional walk in but he announced us perfectly and we ran around the tables saying hello to our friends and family. I would recommend Joey to anyone looking to have an experience for their guests, have a DJ but also want strings all in one. He was professional, timely and for someone who did not have a day of coordination or planner very informative. I wanted vendors to do what they do best and I’m glad I trusted him to provide us with music throughout the day and night!

    Wow, Melissa Sue! 🎉 This review is absolutely incredible and truly warms my heart. Coming from a seasoned wedding vendor like yourself, your kind words mean the world. It's fantastic to hear that my cello and background music caught your eye, and that you wanted that unique "experience" for your own wedding – that's exactly what I aim for! I genuinely loved collaborating with you on your musical vision. Those detailed calls and navigating 10+ hours of music, guest requests (and even that specific 10-year-old's playlist!), was a blast. Seeing the "Bridgerton vibes" come to life at your outdoor ceremony was perfection, and I'm thrilled the seamless setup across two spaces, the lighting, and the crystal-clear mics all added to your day. Announcing your non-traditional walk-in was pure fun, and I'm so glad you felt I was professional, timely, and informative, especially without a day-of coordinator. Thank you for trusting me with all your music needs throughout the entire day and night. It was an honor to be part of your celebration! Cheers, Joey Cello Joe

    Joey was great, very responsive and also provided great ideas throughout the planning process. He played the cello for our ceremony and then DJ'd the rest of the wedding. Definitely would recommend.

    Hi Joey, Thank you so much for this fantastic feedback! It was a true pleasure working with you and bringing music to your special day. I loved collaborating on ideas during the planning process! I'm thrilled to hear that the cello for your ceremony and the DJing for the rest of the wedding hit just the right note. So glad you'd recommend me! Thanks again for having me be a part of your celebration. Cheers, Joey Cello Joe

    Joey/CelloJoe was professional, patient, and knowledgeable in both preparations for the ceremony day as well as on the day of our wedding! He helped us to make up a dinner music playlists which guests enjoyed, impressed guests with live cello playing and looping, and was able to adjust for unexpected moments to have musical accompaniment which made the moments our guests were experiencing more magical. His DJing was professional and well timed to the energy of the crowd, and he knows his gear and equipment well. The fact that we had three different locations and need for wireless setups did not deter him, and he was prepared. Thanks Joey for taking care of all of our sound needs from ensuring voices were heard at the ceremony to closing out the night.

    Wow, thank you so much for the thoughtful and kind words! It was such an honor to be part of your special day. I'm so glad the dinner playlist, live looping cello, and DJ sets helped create magical moments throughout the celebration. Navigating multiple locations and wireless setups can be a challenge, but with a great couple like you and such a joyful crowd, everything came together beautifully. Wishing you both a lifetime of love, laughter, and great music! 🎻✨🎶 – Cello Joe / Joey Chang

    Cello Joe was so much fun to work with! Our couple had a specific pre-ceremony playlist, and he nailed the vibe perfectly—it really set the tone for the day. During the ceremony, his live cello performance for the grand entrance was absolutely beautiful, and the sound quality for both the officiant and the music was spot on. As the evening went on, Joey kept the energy up and got everyone on the dance floor with a great mix of music. He and his assistant were both friendly, professional, and a joy to work with. Highly recommend! -Lisette, TLC Event Coordination
