Hands down, the best!

DJ Pat is the best! From the moment we first met, his professionalism, enthusiasm, and passion for music shone through. He took the time to understand our tastes, preferences, and the overall vibe we wanted.

On the day itself, he delivered beyond our highest expectations. The selection of songs was impeccable, seamlessly blending our personal favorites with classic crowd-pleasers. Transitions were smooth, timing perfect, and his knack for reading the room was uncanny.

He didn't just play music; he created an experience, a soundtrack to the happiest day of our lives.

If you're looking for a wedding DJ who is talented, professional, and has the ability to turn your wedding reception into the most joyous celebration, look no further. We couldn't recommend Pat more highly. Thank you for making our wedding day a dance-filled, joyous celebration we will never forget.

Professionals and excellent service all around!

DJ Danny was our DJ for the evening and he did a fantastic job all around. I went with Sound Prodigy not just for the reasonable prices but also for the fact that they had a super convenient app ("Vibo") with which I was able to select and upload music (including Spotify playlists I curated) to have a hand in the music selection.

DJ Pat and DJ Danny are both very personable and were excellent at communicating, detail oriented and organized, and I'm so glad I could trust their company to help make my wedding day the best day possible! I'm so glad I hired them to provide the sound/music and uplighting and would absolutely recommend their services to anyone looking for a great, experienced wedding DJ in the San Diego area.

THANK YOU DJ Danny for having such great communication throughout the night and ensuring things went smoothly! (And for the fun karaoke moments!!)

Sound Prodigy keeps the dance floor going!

DJ Pat helped make our wedding absolutely magical! We highly recommend him. He was such a pleasure to work with through the planning process and made it as easy as possible. He was so organized and professional the day of the wedding and ensured the sound quality from the ceremony to the reception was top notch.

His transitions from different songs on the dance floor were so smooth and he kept the party going. He's definitely very keen at feeling the vibe and reading the crowd and makes sure everyone has a great time. He's the ultimate hype man!

We also booked the Adventure Bus Photobooth (the Volkswagen bus) through DJ Pat and all our guests LOVED it. The photo quality surpasses so many other photobooths I've seen at other weddings, AND they gifted us a beautiful custom guest book that included all our guests' photos. Pat and his team are simply incredible.

Pat is great to work with and gets the job done. He is fun and an overall good-hearted person. He was able to adapt to a schedule change at the last minute and powered through feeling a little under the weather. I look forward to the next opportunity I get to work with him!
