DJ Von Woo

I’ve worked with Von for several events now and he always goes above and beyond. He provides Dj services, photo booth, and uplighting. Von is an amazing DJ and can play for all types of crowds and is very good on the microphone. We LOVE his music selection! He really knows how to read a crowd and keep people on the dance floor. The photo booth was a hit. We got a green screen photo booth and loved that we had different backgrounds to choose from. His lighting is Superb. We chose purple color uplihgts to match our theme. Von uses wireless uplights so that you don’t see cables and tape across the floor which was one of our concerns because the venue didn’t have outlets on the pillars in the middle of the floor that we wanted them at. The dance lights was fun and definitely enhanced the party. Von is a true professional and will use him again and again.

Hands down best wedding DJ ever. I should clarify, Von is not going to be your typical wedding DJ (a la Adam Sandler in the Wedding Singer), but if you actually want a DJ who can spin, read the crowd and incorporate exactly the kind of music you want at exactly the right time, then he is your man.
Von was an absolute delight to work with prior to the wedding, at the wedding, and even after. He was even so kind as to offer to recreate the set he spun for us so that we could save it and listen to it for years to come!!! I don’t know anyone else who has had such an amazing DJ and i will be recommending him to all my friends getting married in the future.

Von DJ’d our Friday night wedding in Walnut Creek for ~125 guests. We’d give him more stars if we could! He did a fantastic job with setting up sound systems for multiple sites, running the reception, and getting people on the dance floor. He was very easy to work with, and was willing to play whatever we wanted. The wedding was on a Friday night, but even though people were tired his music kept the dance floor moving. He did a great job as an MC as well, making just the right announcements so that our guests were aware of what was happening, but he didn’t go overboard with talking or jokes, which we really appreciated. He was very professional and friendly throughout the night. He was also easy to work with beforehand and very helpful as we planned music selections for both the ceremony and the reception.

Von was such a great DJ and was really helpful throughout the whole wedding planning process. He has a lot of experience with weddings and events and was able to provide us with some tips and guidelines to make sure things ran smoothly. I would even say he was more helpful than our wedding planner!
We were planning our wedding from New York, so you can imagine there were a lot of ‘blind planning’ involved. I loved that Von really wanted to get to know both me and my husband to really understand both of our musical tastes — because it’s night and day! lol With differing music tastes, I was worried it wouldn’t flow very well together, but he made everything work and even offered suggestions, which was really helpful.
We had our ceremony outdoors, above the cliffs, and I was really worried about the sound quality. I cannot emphasize enough how much Von put my mind at ease when he found out all the details from the venue to make sure the music would be loud enough for everyone to hear. He is also very knowledgable about mics, speakers and such that I did not have to worry about any of it. When the day came, everything was perfect and all our guests loved the music! :)
He also knows how to read the crowd, and everyone had a really good time dancing at the party — even my Mum and Dad got on the dance floor!
Thank you Von for all your help and for helping us make our big day wonderful!

DJ Von Woo, was our wedding DJ, and spoiler alert: He killed it.
Start to finish top notch service. He was great in upfront communication via email, and ultimately ended up meeting us for a first time consultation visit. He instantly «got it» and understood the type of wedding we were looking for.
Leading up to the wedding Von, was great with helping us pick our music and giving us some ideas. He gave example lists to get the creative juices flowing.
Day of wedding completely on time, was setup, and needed zero oversight.
He really knew his stuff about mics, and was able to help us understand how to get the best sound quality out of our ceremony. The actual ceremony itself went off without a hiccup. Perfect quality.
During dinner, had awesome play list. Used our initial list of music, but honestly we were not that prescriptive in what we wanted. Generally told him what we liked and he took it from there. Our table kept saying how much they enjoyed the music.
Quickly on the dancing, he nailed all the first songs, and ceremony type stuff. He isn’t a «hype man» and that’s not what we wanted. He talked only when he needed to help usher the groups around and made sure the attention was on the bride (like it should be) and groom. Dance music started off solid and got more aggressive as the night got later and the old folks went to bed.
Long story short, hes awesome. Highly recommend him, and please grab him before his schedule fills up. Reach to me with any questions.

I just had my wedding with DJ Von on 9÷5÷15 and I can’t say this enough, he was the absolute best wedding DJ ever. Our number one goal for our reception was to get everyone on the dance floor and keep them there and DJ Von did just that. He knows how to read the crowd and play the right music at the right time. His MC-​ing is super casual and flows incredibly well with the event. He was extremely helpful during the planning process, very responsive, and made the entire experience so easy. His music selection was perfect — great mix of oldies, trendy music, and a lot of awesome remixes. I highly recommend working with him — it’ll be one of the best decisions you make while planning your event or wedding.

DJ Von did our wedding in July 2014 and he was by far our favorite vendor we worked with for our wedding. From start to finish DJ Von was really easy and efficient to work with. DJ Von really nailed exactly what we were looking for in terms of music and managed to fit in all our requests, even with a shortened timeline for dancing. Everyone has commented on what a great job he did and we couldn’t have been happier. We’d recommend DJ Von to anyone looking for a fantastic experience.

I tell everyone who will listen that DJ Von is hands down the best wedding DJ out there. I’ve been to weddings where the DJ was a bit intrusive, (on the mic a lot), couldn’t read the crowd, and clearly didn’t take the time to get to know the couple and their guests. None of this applies to Von.
My best friend hired Von for her wedding a year or so before I got engaged. I knew then that there was no way I’d hire anyone else. I don’t think I sat down once at her reception, (and I’m usually the type to sit quite a few out).
Prior to our wedding Von took the time to get to know me and my husband. He asked us some questions that I didn’t really understand at first, like «what year did you and the majority of your guests graduate college,» but it became totally clear to me when the dance floor was packed and my guests were dancing like maniacs to songs that we loved in our early 20’s. We had a small wedding, (60 or so people), and it can be an awkward party killer if you don’t have quite a few people dancing. Von kept my guests dancing up to the very end of our wedding. We have quite possibly the most hilarious photos I’ve ever seen of my husband and his friends going nuts to one of Von’s many perfect song selections.
I’ve had several guests ask me for Von’s info after our wedding. I still get inquiries almost a year later. That’s the kind of impression he made. Hire him! You won’t be disappointed.

DJ Von was FANTASTIC! I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding DJ and ceremony/​dinner emcee. He met with me on the phone multiple times to get a sense of what I wanted and made sure that he would fit the bill. He offered multiple times to meet me in person or Skype, but I was unable to do either for a variety of reasons. My husband and I planned our wedding from 3,000+ miles away (in Boston for a wedding at Barndiva in Healdsburg, CA) and didn’t meet any of the folks doing the ancillary things (flowers, DJ, photographer, etc.) until either the day of, or day before, the wedding. We relied on Unilocal and word of mouth from others in the wedding industry. DJ Von was recommended to me by the photographer that we chose who said that he had photographed many weddings at Barndiva and had seen some real flops from a music standpoint including blown speakers and no shows. He said that DJ Von was by far the best he’d seen and gave his top recommendation.
Vaughn worked with us on special requests as well. My mom is a DJ, having done many weddings herself (she also thought he was great!), and I wanted to work in her announcing a song or two but not having to DJ the whole wedding. Vaughn seamlessly worked her in at the time that I asked and even called her up a second time to announce another song which made her very happy. We also asked him to play the music and do the transitions for our ceremony — which he did perfectly. He has done many, many weddings and had great recommendations about what works where well for the ceremony and reception but was open to whatever I wanted to do. He has a very informative website that highlights samples of his work. If you don’t find what you like there, however, I have no doubt that he can tailor something to fit your needs. While my personal taste is along the lines of many of the samples, he was good about incorporating more things that appeal to a variety of ages and music tastes — it was a wedding, after all! As requested, he also avoided all things that fall into the category of «bad wedding DJ.» Finally, his rates seemed very reasonable to me and I can’t imagine finding a decent band for anywhere close to what we paid. He also let us add on time the night of to extend the reception — a huge plus in my book. The party was still going strong with lots of dancing at the time we had originally planned to stop and it was great to hang out and dance with our friends and loved ones as long as we liked. Overally, I’d give him a ⁵⁄₅ and would absolutely recommend him to a friend for their wedding.

DJ Von Woo is amazing. There really aren’t words to describe how satisfied my wife and I were with his performance at our wedding, not to mention how much our guests loved him too. At the end of the night, we had guests going up to him and begging him to stay longer. He read the crowd perfectly, he literally had every person on the dance floor at one point or another, and there was not a time that the floor was empty the entire night. He kept the party going, transitioned into scheduled events like cake cutting, toasts, etc., flawlessly, and even gave some great advice on things to do in the area during our honeymoon. I don’t think we could have asked for more; hands down the best entertainer I’ve ever worked with.

I am a wedding photographer and I worked at a wedding he was dj-​ing at. I have heard a lot of dj’s doing my job and he was hands down the best I’ve ever heard. Everyone was dancing. His transition into songs was seamless. He made my job so much more fun by giving me something to dance to while I did my job.

This is so overdue… Not only is DJ Von a talented artist, but he goes above and beyond what you’d expect from any other DJ. When it came to the music at our wedding, we’ve heard nothing but rave reviews from our guests — of ALL ages (7 — 70 years old, really). Thank you, Vaughn, for keeping the dance party going throughout our entire reception — not a dull moment on the dance floor.

DJ Von rocked our wedding and the compliments from our guests were full of superlatives. He had everyone dancing, young and old, all night till 2am.
He is easy going and wonderful to work with. No superstar hangups even thought he is a superstar. Highly recommended!
We are trying to figure out what party we can throw to have him DJ again. He was the highlight of our wedding and we would give him 10 stars if we could.
DJ Von — thank you, thank you. Hope to see you soon.

HOLY CRAP. DJ Von is seriously amazing. He is, hands down, the best DJ we have ever heard — at any event, wedding, club — and we were lucky enough to have him at our wedding! We ended up having him spin for almost 7 hours!!! 1.5 hours for the cocktail party, and 5+ hours for the reception. There was literally NEVER a dull moment, and once we opened the dance floor, it was never empty. We had an awesome but strange blend of a play list (its hard to please everyone from 1 — 80 years old, from all over the world… we had over 200 people), which included country for the rednecks, rock, hip-hop/pop/r&b, and everything in between. Von seamlessly flowed from one genre to another, reading the crowd, and always keeping the party going. Seriously, people could not stop talking about him.
I want to get married again just to have another dance party. AND to top it off, he’s super chill and laid back, and a pleasure to work with! Definitely 100% recommend!

We’ve hired Vaughn twice now and we’ve been so happy. He is really the perfect DJ to hire for a party because he has such a great presence and totally knows his stuff. It was almost like he was psychic: We gave him a little direction on what to play and he nailed it. We couldn’t have been more pleased.
When you bring some one in to work at a party you’re having — it’s nice to have a personality fit too, and that’s another thing we liked so much about Vaughn. He is such a nice guy, knows what he’s doing and is extremely pleasant, aware and easy to have around. Very highly recommended.

Wow! He got the party started and it didn’t stop. HE DJ’d a wedding of one of my good friends and we left with a business card and wanting to use him for our next event. He know his beats and can mix like a master! Highly recommended!

Von Woo DJ’d our wedding last month and he was the hit of the reception. The music was spot on, he kept the schedule flowing and nobody was ready to leave when the facility made us cut the juice! Von did a great job communicating with us before the event, was able to track down all of our song requests and even brought a wireless speaker for the indoor part of our reception so nobody missed a thing. A BIG recommendation for sure.

Wow! What an amazing DJ! We heard DJ Von Woo for the first time at a friends wedding last month and couldn’t stop dancing!!! He picked the right songs at the right time, there was something for everyone to dance to, everyone was happy, lots of group dances, nobody was left out. I would hire DJ Von Woo for any celebration.
