In The Mix Productions

Don and Robert at In the Mix Production were wonderful to work for our wedding at Palmdale Estates!
Robert did a great job helping us curate our list of songs we wanted played throughout the day. There were a few specific versions of songs we wanted played which he didn’t have in his possession, but ended up purchasing just so we would have exactly what we wanted at the day. Our only mistake was that we forgot to listen to the first dance song in advance and didn’t realize there were two different versions of it. They played the other version than what we wanted, but made up for it, playing the intended version as our second-​to-​last song to make up for it.
We loved how they set up the ballroom and the uplighting was a last minute addition they suggested which we loved! It made the night so fun!
Don was an INCREDIBLE MC!!! He brought me and my bridesmaids champagne as we were getting dressed and was so wonderful calming nerves, making sure everyone was where they were supposed to be, and ensured everything flowed smoothly. He kept us on time throughout the evening, and when we needed a little more time to take photos between the ceremony and reception, he did a great job keeping the guests entertained until we returned.
During and after the wedding, my guests couldn’t stop raving about Don and what an awesome MC he was, and how well he helped keep everything organized and running perfectly.
During the evening, Robert did an awesome job mixing music and keeping people on the dance floor. I have often been disappointed with wedding DJs and how boring the music can be, but Robert was the best!
We recommend Don and Robert and In the Mix Productions to anyone looking for a spectacular DJ and MC for their wedding. They were WONDERFUL to work with!

In the Mix Productions hosted our wedding. Robert Tinoco was our DJ and he did a great job. He brought some extra equipment to make sure the event was as great as it could be. He completely followed our lead and directions. He played it a little too loud at the beginning and I asked him to lower it and he did. We lowered the volume again a little further to what I thought was appropriate for the audience at our wedding, including the adults and children. Robert brought an assistant along. They were completely attentive to my wife and I and things went off great. We also picked all of the music we wanted played and provided that to him in advance and he made it a point to have all of that music available for our wedding.

BEST EVENT PLANNER/​MC/​DJ EVER ! A++++++
Our 40^th class reunion dinner/​dance was a huge success all due to Jude and Don’s involvement.
Professional * Personable * Dedicated
Prior to our event, Jude planned out so many details that I would have never thought of, and took care of items on my to-​do list that I was not able to get at. He met with our vendors to make sure the event would turn out the way we would want. He Facetimed us to show the venue location and suggested the best spot for food/​music/​auction/​photobooth/​etc. Love how he types out our evening’s itinerary details, and we review together online.
Jude and Don were at the venue four hours before event began, did a run of our Skyping with a faraway classmate, even set up the tables, banners, and registration area, all before setting up his music/​mic equipment. They both were so supportive, attentive to each aspect to make the evening a hit. They qued us for our speeches, drawings, auction, memorial video/​song, fun dancing, the sundae dessert bar, and so much more. They even brought the reunion committee food/​drink when they saw we were too busy to realize we needed the fuel. Everything was on schedule and went so smoothly all because of them. True dedication to an event and the people who are behind the scenes.
Yes, we received all the credit from our classmates, but the real credit goes to Jude and Don for managing and organizing our evening for us. They made us look fantastic, feel great. We are extremely grateful ! Could not have pulled this event off without their energy and enthusiastic support. An over-​the-​top team and service !!
Highly recommend ITM for any type of event. This was our second reunion working with Jude. We would not do any event without him! ABSOLUTELY AWESOME !

Jude was really, really great to work with. He gave us a discount and was easy to work with. And was a great value. He showed up on time. The other vendors liked him.
But we gave only him 2 instructions… 1. Don’t play our entire first dance song. 2. We really like 90s hip hop.
Unfortunately… he played all the verses and choruses of our first dance song. So we were just dancing for an uncomfortably long time. The song we gave him was a recording of a live performance, so the singer starts talking at the end of the track. He didn’t stop the song until after she started talking and promoting her tour.
As for the 90s hip hop… we didn’t hear any of that. Instead, during our dinner it was elevator music. (Our wedding was in a barn and we were eating ribs and barbecue and drinking lemonade.) He could of played country, popular music, r&b, anything. The type of music played would have been more appropriate in hotel wedding. I can’t fault him completely on that, though. Because it’s just our opinion that that wasn’t the best choice for our type of wedding. I wish he could read the crowd/​setting a little better. Even some of our guests asked us why he was playing that music.
I’m hoping that we were just a fluke. Because he really was a great guy. We were just really disappointed with how things turned out.

Robert was absolutly amazing for our wedding last weekend and I would recommend him to anyone. His entire leading up process was flawless and he ran the day of so calmly so I wasn’t stressed at all. He kept everyone on our dance floor the entire night and also played every song off the list we asked him to play. He was GREAT and if he is available for your wedding day, book him! TRUST ME!

When we decided to start planning, we didn’t know where to start. We cared mostly about the party… so we started with music. We called Don/​Jude first and they had more information than we ever thought about. They talked with us monthly, and when our wedding came closer, Don talked with us weekly and daily! He had the greatest ideas and information! We knew we wanted all the formalities to happen fast and start the party. Don was SO ON IT! He even danced and took a few pictures and videos for us!
Best Value, Super Professional, Extra Helpful.
So happy we chose Don and In the Mix Productions for our wedding at Nella Terra Cellars in Sunol, CA on September 20, 2015!

One of the most important things at any party is the music. Don was the DJ/​MC at our wedding reception at Palmdale Estate in Fremont. From the time that we talked as to the last song, he was very attentive and followed up all the time. He went out of his way to get us drinks, etc. He was very understanding when I was dragging my feet on getting him the final list of songs and worked with me to finalize the list. My only request for Don was to make sure if folks are sitting down, they are catching a breath and/​or resting their feet and I have to say he made it happen. Everybody from unties, uncles, friends, young, old, grumpy, kids, has a blast. The way he organized his schedule, he left room for last minute changes and walk up request in person. If folks wanted to play something all they had to do is ask for it.
I would highly recommend them for any event… They were the first DJ service I called and after my first conversation with Jude, I didn’t bother calling anyone else. I’m glad I choose them because they delivered what I was expecting at my wedding reception party. Don was a pleasure to work with and when I need a DJ again, I know who to call. Thanks again guys.

We could not have picked better DJs/​Hosts/​Master of Ceremonies than In The Mix Productions. From the start, Don and Jude have been professional, responsive and a pleasure to work with.
We mainly communicated and worked with Don who served as our DJ and host for our wedding last 9÷4÷15 at the Palmdale Estates. Robert also DJed for us for the reception and definitely got the party started. Everyone was on their feet and dancing. You name it – aunts, uncles, friends, grandmas, and even the little ones! Thank you Robert for getting everyone pumped up! I can’t want to have another event so we can hire you guys again! :)
Now on to Don. :) Don is such a pleasant person and went above and beyond for us – our friends and family could not stop raving about him! My husband and I sent Don a list of songs for our wedding and he ran with it. Literally, every song played was to our liking. It’s so refreshing to work with someone who just gets you. On top of that, Don made sure the flow of the reception was flawless. That was another comment that rang throughout — everyone noted that there were no boring lulls at our event. Everything was timed perfectly and I didn’t stress about anything at all! We even improvised on some parts of the program. Our videographers wanted to present a same-​day edit video, but we also wanted to get the guests to the dance floor to start the party. Instead of presenting the video during dinner (as is typically the case), we used the video as a party closer and Don had the wild and amazing idea of projecting the video on the ceiling. Everyone was already in awe of have a same-​day edit but having it projected on the ceiling was an added «wow» factor.
Don, THANK YOU, THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts! We almost want to get married again just so we can have a kick-​ass party like last week’s ;-)

My husband and I had Jude as our MC and Robert as our DJ for our wedding at Palmdale estates. From start to finish they were both easy to work with and to communicate with. They were able to understand our wedding theme and the overall mood and tone we wanted to set for our ceremony and our guests.
They were also very organized and provided worksheets that helped us figure out which songs to pick for certain activities during the evening. They both had good personalities that worked well with us, very professional and on the day of both also carried a smile as they worked.
On the day of, both arrived on time and set up everything without any issue. They were there for each part of the day and stayed on top of our timeline throughout the evening. We ran on time and their time management was on point. This is very important as your MC and DJ really are the ones helping to drive the timeline and making sure you’re staying on schedule– in fact we had extra time for open dancing which was great! I was nervous about time initially but these guys were experienced and knew how to run the party without delay. We also enjoyed an interactive last dance that they helped coordinate which was amazing!
I’d highly recommend Jude and Robert for any DJ services– we enjoyed working with them and they made our wedding very special and memorable. I’d work with them again. Thanks guys!

Working with in the guys of In The Mix Productions was one of the best decisions we made when choosing our DJ and MC for our wedding. I can’t stress enough how great they did on our wedding day. We put all our trust into these guys, and they did not disappoint! All our guests commented on how great Don MCed and how much fun they had dancing with Robert as our DJ. They are all so professional, and really care about making sure your event goes perfect for you! Jaycee and I thank you guys so much for being a part of our special day! If your looking for a quality DJ and MC service, you can stop looking and go with In The Mix. There’s a reason their 5 stars!

My wife and I used Jude and DJ Raman at Nella Terra in June 2015. Jude is a professional, pure and simple. In order, here are the playlists/​songs Jude helped us crank out:
Cocktail Hour
Entrance Themes
First Dance
Dinner Songs
Bride/​Father Dance
Groom/​Mother Dance
Bouquet Toss
Garter Toss (we even forget the garter and Jude helped us improvise)
Dance Floor
Planning a wedding can be overwhelming. We were so fortunate to work with Jude and have his guidance through the planning and execution phase of our reception.
Hire Jude. Let Jude help you. You won’t regret it.

I think few people would say their wedding far exceeded their expectations, but ours did, and that was in no small part thanks to Don and Jude.
They handled the ceremony flawlessly — everything was timed perfectly and exactly how we imagined… which is extra amazing considering that we gave them so little direction! And the reception /​dance music was perfect (it was the only time I have seen my husband enjoy dancing) — they played all the right songs at the right moments.
Oh, I should also mention that they are some of the kindest, friendliest, and warmest people you’ll ever meet.
We can’t thank them enough…

Jude is always so responsive to the needs of each event. He is intuitive to the each unique audience and makes it so smooth. I would recommend Jude and his company for any organization or corporate party. Thank you Jude for making our SMPS SFBAC Celebration the best!

Don is seriously the best DJ we could have had at our wedding. Our venue, Palmdale Estates, has a partnership with Mix Productions and that’s how we were connected to each other. Out of the different DJ vendors to choose from, we are so glad we went with Don! Foremost, Don is super thorough and a great communicator. With all of our little detailed requests like having our own band come in for the ceremony and some parts of the reception, Don was so knowledgable on what sound equipment to get set up and what to bring! He also came in an hour earlier than expected to make sure all the different sound systems needed during our wedding were up and running. He coordinated very thoroughly with our bands and we had a great phone conversation before the wedding to make sure we were all on the same page. The day went so smoothly and we couldn’t have asked for anything more. Don is also SO POLITE! He walked around to make sure all of our guests were comfortable and having a great time and I’m quite convinced Don has a smile glued to his face ²⁴⁄₇. He was a pleasure to work with and I would recommend Don for any event you need a DJ or sound equipment for. Thank you so much, Don! You’re amazing!

DJ Donny was fantastic at our 80s themed party at The Rio in Las Vegas. We held a party for about 1,400 attendees at our animal welfare conference and encouraged everyone to dress up 80s style. DJ Donny spun the perfect mix of everyone’s favorite songs from that era (plus a few current hits, too)! He and his partner Jude also were able to save us quite a bit of money by renting our sound system through In the Mix Productions verses going through the hotel AV company and this was a huge bonus for us! Beyond that — Don took care of all the details for me during the party set up. Would use them again in a heart beat — such kind, knowledgable, fair and hip guys!

We hired In the Mix Productions and they were easily one of the best vendor decisions we’ve made for our wedding. Don and Jude coordinated with us and had full transparency of the process and what they needed the entire time leading up to the wedding. When the day of the wedding came, DJ Love Preet, handled all of the heavy lifting with helping us play the music that we’ve chosen and the dramatic musical fades and timing that we wanted for the ceremony.
These guys are great – definitely hire them if you want no-​nonsense professionals that will deliver.

Don and Jude are the best straight up. We hired them for our wedding and not only did we get a DJ and a MC but we also got a wedding coordinator as well all for a great price. Don helped make our wedding perfect and I would recommend them to any and everybody looking for something similar.

Don and Jude were the DJs/​MCs and did the uplighting for our wedding last Saturday in San Francisco and we could not be happier! They set up both the speakers and microphones for our outdoor ceremony and also the uplighting and the speakers and microphones for the reception. The uplighting added a lot to our event space, which would have been too plain without it. We were planning this wedding from another state and both Don and Jude are incredibly responsive and almost always responded the same day which took away a lot of hassle.
They had great suggestions for our ceremony music, which we used, and even offered to come up to do our dress rehearsal which would be quite a drive for them. They were so professional and experienced thoughout the planning that we just said they didn’t need to come for the rehearsal and the next day our ceremony went off without a hitch! Timing was perfect, they miced the reverend and other people without being asked and during our detailed timeline in the reception didn’t need to be reminded of anything.
Before the wedding we filled out their form about the kind of music we wanted played, were we okay with requests etc. (This is what I mean, they are so organized!). They played exactly the type of music our group likes and we had THREE hours of dancing and they kept the party going the whole time. End of the night, the floor was still packed and we had to gently move guests out. Don and Jude definitely look out for the bride and groom and anything they might help with. At one point, I realized that our guestbook and other things were still outside and asked if Don would mind bringing it… he already had! So yes, I recommend them. (This probably sounds like an over-​the-​top review but after nine months of planning and the wedding being so wonderful, I had to open a Unilocal account to thank the responsible people).

If you are a bride with an upcoming wedding, booking Don and Jude will be your very best decision in your wedding planning! They were excellent from start to finish and on our wedding day we had absolutely nothing to worry about! We had the pleasure of having Don work our wedding and he took the best care of my husband and I. He was very attentive to us and made sure we were taken care of all night. They make it all about the couple and go out of their way to make sure you are happy!
Thank you gentleman for your attention to detail with us and for not missing a beat! We made new friends with you two!!!

We planned our California wedding remotely from 2000 miles away and were recommended to use ITMP by our wedding venue. After sending an online inquiry, Jude contacted us to set up a virtual meeting via gchat. I really appreciated this personal touch; it made me more assured that we wanted to work with Jude and his team.
Both Jude and Don were a pleasure to work with. They helped us work through and finalize the perfect schedule to include all the details and timing down to five minute increments! Our guests were impressed with how well everything was coordinated!
