Spencer Weddings and Entertainment

So, this is my first Unilocal review. I’m not one to write reviews but it has to be said that we were beyond happy with the services that Jason provided for our wedding on 11÷6÷15.
In effort to keep this short, I will just say that you cannot find a DJ/​MC as professional as Jason Spencer. Although we had not budgeted to spend what we did on entertainment, we knew once we met Jason that we would not be quite as satisfied with anyone else.
Jason takes the time and energy to make sure that your wedding is memorable, personal, and everything you envisioned it could be. He also provides you with tools to help make the decision process easier (such as choosing processional music, etc). We often looked forward to our details meetings with him and we felt that we could trust him to help guide us through some of the decisions that were harder to make. His level of experience truly shows and it’s very clear that Jason is invested in making sure your wedding is a success.
Jason is also punctual and reliable. He always answered my emails (and there were a lot of them) in a timely manner and he always delivered what he promised. In addition, Jason went above and beyond by creating a mixed track for my father daughter dance and sending me multiple versions by request.
If we could clone Jason, we would have hired him to also be our photographer, wedding coordinator, caterer… we were just that impressed with his level of professionalism!

We hired Jason as our DJ for our October 11 wedding. And we are so happy that we did! He was recommended to us by our photographer as she has worked with him at previous weddings and had nothing but great things to say about him. Upon first meeting with Jason I was impressed with his professionalism, great attitude, and upbeat energy. After meeting with him for about an hour we were sold. He is so personable, I feel like we could meet up with outside of planning and have a great time. He really is one of a kind. He was the first and ONLY DJ we met with and we couldn’t be happier. Throughout the planning process we sat with him twice and discussed everything. He provided music for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. We were truly impressed with how well he accommodated all of the aspects of our wedding. I loved the personalized introductions he did for our bridal party, our Love Story, and keeping all of the guests on the dance floor. He has been doing this for many years and it shows. We also upgraded to the uplighting for the reception. As he was taking it down we chatted for a bit and I saw how BORING the room looked, even though the room was gorgeous. It really added the perfect touch for the mood. If your wedding or event is inside a building or tent, definitely opt for the uplighting. It’s amazing what it can do! I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a DJ, especially for a wedding. Thank you thank you thank you Jason for all your help! We truly appreciated it and are SO happy we found you!

We hired Jason for our Wedding on June 6^th. We had been looking for DJ’s and that was my main priority was to find a DJ that was fun, entertaining, and could keep the party going. When we first met Jason, we were both surprised how organized he was and have everything laid out for us. He was willing to change anything and accommodating to any needs and wants that we wanted for our wedding.
We met with Jason several times through out the planning process. We filled out paperwork and answered questions that he had prepared for us and our wedding party. That was a hit at our wedding with the answers that we gave about us and our wedding party.
At the wedding, we did have some things that we wanted to have done and he jumped right on it. Even though we had a little bit of rain on our wedding day, Jason stayed calm and collective and made everything work with the wedding.
During the reception he was so much fun. He kept the partying going, and played all the songs that we asked him to play and even more to get everyone on the dance floor. During our wedding we did not see the dance floor empty, and everyone told us how great our DJ was.
I would highly recommend Jason for any wedding. For us getting married in a venue that had many rules and regulations, and a venue he had never been too he did an amazing job. If you are looking for someone to get the party started, keep going, and even more! Jason had a good voice during announcements and was very professional. I had high hopes for a DJ at our wedding and Jason surpassed that. So if you are looking for a DJ for any event, sit down with Jason and he will surprise you!

Jason was the DJ at our wedding on May 2015. He did a wonderful job! It was a whirlwind of a day so I don’t remember much but I do know that he spoke to me throughout the day so that I knew what was going on, he kept me on the dance floor, and he was great to work with. On the days, weeks, and months leading up to my wedding Jason was easy to keep in touch with. He took down all of my requests, made an effort to get to know me and my fiancé’s likes and dislikes, and I immediately felt very comfortable when I met him for the first time. On my wedding day, it rained freakishly hard for about 30 minutes even though there was no rain in the forecast. He handled the whole situation very well considering I didn’t have any tents set up to keep him dry. The rain put everything out of balance for about 45 minutes but then Jason got everyone out on the dance floor. I’m really grateful and happy to have had Jason DJ our wedding. He made it a very special day.

We hired Jason for our wedding reception. Jason did a great job with the music, sound system, and MC’ing. He also helped organize all the entertainment changes and scheduling. We highly recommend him.

Jason was amazing. From the beginning to the end he provided great service. We were planning most of our wedding long distance due to living in Mexico, which was difficult at times, but Jason accommodated us and our schedule. He had meetings with us on Skype and over the phone and really put us at ease over the planning. For the actual event he was great and had the dance floor full at all times. The wedding story was a great touch. His services were a bit expensive, but in line with other top DJs and well worth every dime. I highly recommend Jason and would pick him again.

Jason was the man! He did our wedding at the Monterey Plaza Hotel. We had a bunch of friends recommend him and he quickly became a friend of ours. He was professional, reasonable and made our day work out flawlessly. We were very very pleased with him and refer him to anyone we know who is getting married. You seriously get what you pay for!

Jason Spencer was the DJ at our wedding on October 2013 in Carmel Valley. Our wedding was an international wedding where we requested French, English, Spanish, and Arabic music. Jason does not speak French and Arabic and he amazingly mixed the music. One of our guest attendees asked: «Where did you find this DJ? Does he Speak Arabic? he is mixing the Arabic music well». In addition, every meeting we had with Jason, he was on time, on schedule and was well prepared. Everything was great. I highly recommend him.

My Husband and I got married on Sunday September 8^th, 2013 at Oceano Half Moon Bay. I am Catholic and my Husband is Jewish. We tried interviewing a Priest and Rabbi combination, but I had discomfort with it, and so did my Husband. When we met with Jason he was friendly, warm, and I was really happy that he meshed with my Hubby. Weddings aren’t most Groom’s «thing», so having my Groom feel good about our wedding professionals, especially the man performing our interfaith ceremony, was very important to me. Jason helped us take our own feelings about each other, and express them in a deeply personal, clever, and entertaining ceremony for ourselves and our guests that didn’t over do either religion, nor forget either. We even had a ketubah (Jewish marriage license) signing prior to the ceremony with just our immediate family and wedding party members, and Jason did a great job facilitating! Jason worked with one of our closest friends on translations between Hebrew and English parts of the ceremony as well. He was easy to work with, a pleasure to have with us on our rehearsal day, and wedding day. We will always be happy we chose him to be a part of this beautiful day in our lives! Thanks Jason!

Finding a good DJ/​MC was probably the part of wedding planning I was dreading the most. I didn’t want someone who was hokey or cheesy, but I did want some direction to the evening so our guests were entertained and the night flowed well. Jason delivered on both those fronts. From our consultation meetings to the walkthroughs and wedding reception itself, Jason was professional and thorough in everything. He coordinated the flow of the evening perfectly, keeping everyone’s attention and making sure the reception had great energy. Our guests loved the music he played and the dancing went on for hours!

When we saw all of the high reviews of Jason, on Unilocal,we thought, «let’s give him a shot». We are so glad we did. Luckily, he was the 1^st DJ/​MC we consulted with, and the last. We were sold from our initial meeting in July 2011, a year before our wedding date (this past August 2012).
He was very professional and organized. He made our reception planning very easy. The book he provided was very helpful, too. Not only did he provide the music, but he also helped draft our reception timeline. He maintained communication with us, and with our wedding coordinator, so everyone was on the same page for our reception. He made sure to cover all aspects of our reception: Intros, grand entrance, 1^st dance, money dance, bouquet and garter toss, everything.
When we found out our uplighting vendor was going to take down their uplights an hour early, Jason brought extra lights (free of charge) to ensure that the party would go on.
We’re so happy we chose Jason Spencer for our DJ/​MC. We received many compliments about our playlist and about how smooth the reception went. Once the dancing started, the dance floor was never empty.
Jason Spencer is a master of his craft. A true professional. Highly recommended.

Searching for a DJ for our June 2012 wedding was not an easy task. I’ve been to weddings with bad DJs and a bad DJ can have a significant effect on the experience. We knew when we met Jason that he would be the kind of DJ that could take our unique tastes and preferences and turn them into an experience that everyone can enjoy and remember. I, too, was concerned about his prices but I also know that most times you get what you pay for. Jason definitely delivered.
Throughout the planning process, he was so accommodating, understanding, patient, and professional all the way through. He was obviously experienced and offered so much guidance in areas where we really needed it. We felt throughout the whole process that we were in great hands.
Not only did he accommodate our music preferences, he UNDERSTOOD them in a way no one else really does given some of our unique tastes. He was so relatable and we felt he really got US and on the day of the wedding, he translated it so well that everyone was on the dance floor.
He personalized our wedding so much including giving personalized introductions of our bridal party and our love story using the perfect balance of sentiment and humor. So many of our guests commented on what a great DJ he was.
Jason is definitely a master at what he does. Outdoor weddings can be tricky with finding an appropriate volume. He nailed it perfectly and made it look easy. He coordinated with all our other vendors to ensure a smooth and flawless flow for the day.
In addition to being naturally great at what he does, we most appreciated his ability to pull through for us given some difficult personal circumstances we were aware he was dealing with. He was honest with us and yet these circumstances did not appear to have made any impact on his ability to help create an incredible and memorable experience for us. We are personally grateful for that. He’s just a great guy.
I think if you choose Jason to be your DJ, you will surely not be disappointed.

Jason Spencer was our DJ/​MC/​Coordinator for our May 2012 wedding, and working with him was the best decision ever! Our group of friends/​family isn’t really the dancing type, but Jason somehow managed to pull everyone to the dance floor and keep them there all night!
We immediately liked Jason upon our first time meeting with him. He is professional, friendly and has a sense of humor. We had met with a couple of other DJs before him, and though we liked the other DJs, we just really liked Jason a lot more! Talking with him was easy and comfortable, a lot like talking to a friend, but we also felt confident that Jason would give us a really fun wedding reception. Also, we could tell from that first meeting that he is really organized and knows all about weddings.
Jason’s services included two planning meetings in which we had the opportunity to ask a ton of questions, and discussed details such as the bridal party (who they are, etc), the guests, vendors, song selections, the general flow of events, etc. We were given a workbook which contained various worksheets and questionnaires to help him get to know us a little better. With this information, he wrote our «love story» which he presented to our guests at the reception, just before our first dance. It was very sweet and funny, and our guests really liked it! He was also very easy to get a hold of whenever I had a question. He replied to emails promptly, which I appreciated very much. I also liked that he had a fixed rate. He doesn’t try to nickel and dime you with an extra charge for cocktail hour music, adding an extra hour, etc.
Everything was just perfect. Jason coordinated with all our vendors to make sure everything went smoothly, introduced our parents and bridal party exactly how we wanted, acknowledged all of our out-​of-​town and far-​away guests, played all of our song requests (some of which were foreign/​non-​American songs), stayed away from the songs on our «do not play» list, did our wedding game perfectly, helped with our slideshow, made sure the flow of events all went smoothly, and made sure that my husband and I didn’t have to worry about a single thing. All we had to do was attend our reception and have fun!
I am so incredibly pleased with Jason. He really made our wedding better than anything I could’ve imagined. He made our wedding personal, brought our guests together, and even gave us a little «surprise» lighting on our sweetheart table to make our table more special! Most of the guests kept dancing until the very last song, after which the guests were not ready to go home! Thank you, Jason Spencer! You truly made our wedding day the funnest, best, most amazing day of my life :-) I just loved that day so much!!!

Walking to the car after our initial meeting, my now husband and I decided to hire Jason without even «talking it over.» We didn’t even need to go through the usual number of meetings with him since he got to know us and read us — he completely understood what feel we were going for. Also, we had some song requests that he said he wasn’t sure he had — but there was no hesitation on his part that HE WOULD find those songs and he did.
Jason knows how to keep the party going! The bridal party intros (and songs) as well as the couples love story were hilarious — his wording and delivery were certainly entertaining and he had our guests intrigued and laughing.
One request we had was after our first dance song, we asked him to transition to few bars of another song. He is an expert — it was perfect. He goes beyond what we expected from a DJ.
He is an outstanding, talented vendor. A DJ/​MC can make or break your event — he 100% makes it.
Many, many thanks to Jason to making our Sept 2011 wedding reception seamless, amazing and memorable.

Jason was the DJ/​MC at our October wedding. We had several planning meetings with him, where we discussed the details and our vision for the evening. We were very impressed with how much he had to offer and the high level of detail and professionalism. He did a great job managing the night’s activities, as well as adding personal touches throughout the evening based on our previous discussions. He made everything feel personally catered to us, and we are extremely happy with how everything went.

Jason’s professionalism, humor and ability to add a few special touches made our day really great. We only took advantage of Jason’s MC skills as we had a friend DJ’ing for us already, but they worked together really well and we had a blast!
I got to meet Jason for the first time at a wedding of another friend and so was lucky enough to get to see him in action before hiring him.
What I love about Jason is his go-​with-​the-​flow attitude. He is super professional, but will adapt to just about any situation and work with the other vendors so that the stress stays at nonexistent levels. This is so hard to find in a wedding professional and for this alone I would recommend him to anyone.
The best part was that he was able to improvise a bit when my husband’s computer crashed and we lost all the notes my husband had for him for our «love story». Fortunately, Jason had taken the time to really get to know us as a couple and was able to flawlessly create the story with what he knew of us already and just my notes. He told our «love story» with sweetness and humor… and everyone really enjoyed our little walk down memory lane.
As a DJ, I’ve only seen him at a friend’s wedding. I can tell you that as a guest of that wedding, the only time I left the dance floor was when I thought my feet were going to fall off from all the fun I was having. Every song was danceable, even the bride and groom were just about constantly on the dance floor, having more fun than should be allowed.
If you are considering hiring Jason, know that he is worth every penny and more… and he will really work to create a magical experience for you, just as he did for us.

Jason delivered on pretty much everything he said he would. There was an issue with dance lighting but it was the venue’s fault. So we didn’t have any lights on the dance floor but I think the low lights in the venue worked out.
He did our wedding this past June. (Filipino/​Italian wedding) I am so glad we chose him to do our wedding because he made it STRESS FREE. He is very professional and organized. He worked with the other vendors so we did not have to. He read the crowd well and got everyone on the dance floor. If I didn’t have a broken leg, I would have been on it too. I can say that my abs were sore the next day from dancing while I was sitting. :) Everyone had a great time at our wedding and that makes us happy because we had a great time as well.

Jason is professional, courteous, thoughtful and friendly — everything a wedding DJ should be. What I love most about him is that not once did he pressure me to book and he took the time to listen to my wedding wish list. He also did not make any assumptions about the big day, like he NEVER said «Well you’ll want to have your cake cutting music blah blah blah,» We’re having pies and cupcakes — not cake. I appreciate that he listened to me first and made suggestions later.
He really should be called a DJ/​mini-​wedding music planner because Jason is SO organized. When discussing the flow of events, he pulled out this amazing fill-​in the blank music time line and showed me a check-​off list of songs. If you book with him, he gives a book and other goodies to help you plan out what you want for music.
Although he did not have a demo or mix I could listen too, he did take the time to provide me with references that I could call and ask questions. He seems very trustworthy, not shady at all and he strikes me as being fairly laid back yet professional and able to get down to business on the dance floor.

We booked Jason based on a recommendation from Silver Creek along with our initial meeting with Jason. Also, one of my friend’s friend used his services for their wedding back in Aug’08 when he was with Sound In Motion. We really liked Jason’s personable attitude, professionalism and felt comfortable with him.
I will update once the wedding is over.

Jason is a wonderful DJ for all your events! My now husband and I hired him for our wedding last August and he exceeded all expectations!
Jason was personable and highly professional!
He worked as a MC, doing all the audio for our wedding, and it turned out great! He did everything seamlessly and made sure we stayed exactly on our timeline. He picked great songs and had the dance floor energy flowing all night long! Pick Jason and you will not be disappointed!!!
