TESTIMONIALS

Dj Gabe entertained us for my milestone birthday bash a few weeks ago and I’m still receiving feedback about the music. We aren’t typical party throwers but are much more inclined to use a dj in the future for our annual Labor Day party. I couldn’t be happier with the professionalism and partnership of DJ Gabe. We’d be thrilled to work with him again and highly recommend his services.

Bert and Gabe are an amazing team that provided us with music and a photo booth for our wedding celebration dinner. From the start Bert was professional, organized and put our needs at the top of his priority list. At the night itself he played exactly the type of music and had a solid flow to the musical entertainment for the evening. The sound quality and technology he uses was also top of the line. The photo booth also had top of the line props and Gabe made sure the guests were taken care of. You will not be disappointed with hiring DJ By The Bay for your next event!

Bert is professional, easy going, very responsive in ongoing communications, and flexible in meeting the couples’ vision for the ceremony and reception. We highly recommend his services for weddings.

We hired Bert as DJ and MC for our wedding at Sequoyah Country Club in the Oakland hills. We gave him our vision for desired music mix that leaned a lot on old school hip hop with some newer tracks and he delivered. We met him weeks earlier to scope out the venue, which has a dining room, buffet room, and dance room, and he gave us helpful suggestions in terms of the reception flow for the evening. He provided wireless mics for the ceremony (held just outdoors from the reception hall) and for the reception. He provided uplighting that was tasteful for the classic California/Mediterranean architecture inside the building.

The photo booth was very well done and our guests absolutely loved it. It was well worth the upgrade. Lots of props to choose from. Bert offered a variety of designs for the photo output, not just the traditional vertical strips of photos, which was valuable to us. We also got to choose the backdrop for the photo booth (which we selected as open rather than closed), as well as the option of receiving digital copies of our guests’ photos.

DJ Bert was the highlight of the evening for my son’s Bar Mitzvah! He is incredibly thoughtful, engaging and really had the kids and the adults entertained for the entire evening. He made sure that he asked the right questions about our musical tastes and played a great mix of music that all enjoyed. As a bonus, we also did the photobooth which was a total blast for the guests. DJ Bert is professional, easy going and a pleasure to work with. I would recommend him to anyone looking and I plan to use him for my next son’s event as well. Thank you for a memorable evening!

DJ Bert and his team did an awesome job at my wedding reception! Bert was our emcee and provided uplighting, music, and our photobooth. Bert was very laid back and able to accommodate all of our requests to make our big day very memorable. From the beginning, Bert was easy to communicate with and understood the different requests and feel we were going for. All of our guests throughly enjoyed the party and we couldn’t have asked for better results!

Bert was awesome — not only was he our DJ but he emceed, set-up uplighting at our venue, and had a photobooth set-up. He definitely went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly as possible. Bert was professional, timely, and a great communicator. I recommend him and his crew to anyone looking for an all-in-one DJ.

DJ Bert was an absolute blast! The music he played had people dancing all through the night – I’ve never seen that many people dancing for so long at a wedding! His MC work was also great, and kept the event flowing smoothly. Our guests loved the photobooth, with plenty of props, and both physical and digital copies of the photos. The uplighting inside the building really added a lot to the ambiance of the room, and the string lights he hung in the patio were beautiful at night. We were very impressed and would highly recommend DJ by the Bay!
