Look no further!

Derek was part of our wedding dream team last week, and we can't recommend him highly enough! He was super easy to work with throughout the planning process. On the day of our (outdoor) ceremony there were some *brisk* 35mph wind gusts that posed some challenges, but the sound was perfect throughout! Our dance floor was full all night long, and Derek perfectly read the room and kept the good vibes going. Oh and he even was able to beautifully clean up and make usable a youtube karaoke track that my sister-in-law sang to during our ceremony. Seems like there's nothing he can't do! Highly recommend!

Amazing DJ! Kept everyone on the floor. He teaches dance lessons too!

Derek was a dream to work with. He is very professional, quick to respond, and easy to talk to. It was so wonderful that Derek offers dance lessons. Just one hour had us looking pretty good. Stop looking, you've found the best DJ around! Book already!!

Entertainment should always be top of your priority list when planning a wedding. The music helps the overall atmosphere, which makes weddings wow! Derek definitely delivers. He's got you covered music wise, playing your hand-selected favorites, but also can help you coordinate your dances being an instructor himself. He's truly got it all and a great attitude to make the process easy along the way. DJ Tobler is a wedding day must have!

Derek stands out, head and shoulders, in the DJ field. A real gent, with advanced musical knowledge and a great sense of service.

I have worked with Derek at so many different venues . . . he can handle any challenge. Be it the UVA Chapel, Pippin Hill, Veritas or numerous other challenging outdoor locations, he always comes prepared to produce beautiful sound not matter what! He's classy too and throws a great party!
