    Very happy with this company

    They were very professional and reasonably priced. DJ Cali was awesome!! She dressed the part and was very upbeat and played everything our guests wanted to hear! We loved her so much we had her back for our next event!

    Special Event Proz's reply:

    Thank you so much, Lori. I really appreciate it! WE love what we can do for all of you :) WE are here for you and everyone who feels the same as you who wants the best service at a bargain :)

    Month of coordinator

    This company as a whole is pretty spectacular. We used their services for our wedding and my husband and I couldn’t be happier. We ended up getting help from Millie Capellan for our “month of” coordinator and from the first meeting we instantly connected and felt her warmth and excitement for us. She was so organized. She helped bring up ideas and solidify plans on how best to execute our vision. We met with her several times before the wedding and she really made us feel so supported and cared for. She contacted all of our vendors, created timelines, name cards, and really just went above and beyond! Both Millie and her daughter are such beautiful, genuine, and understanding people! Couldn’t be more grateful for her and special event proz!

    Special Event Proz's reply:

    Thank you so very much :-) It was an honor to share this day with you :) You and your hubby were amazing to work with as well. WE are so happy to have been there and will be here in the future for you and your friends and family :)

    Professional, Enthusiastic & Fun!

    Michael and his team were a pleasure to work with. He is truly a professional! He made the wedding reception really come alive with his enthusiasm and energy. He played all the songs the bride and groom wanted. His online portal was easy to use, intuitive, and a great way to communicate details of the event. He even came to the reception property ahead of time to do a trial run of the confetti cannons and sparkler machines. His communication skills were stellar- both proactive and quick at responding. Michael is really on top of things. I had all the confidence in the world in him and his company for this upscale wedding reception. As an event planner I highly recommend Michael and his company Special Event DJz!

    They were fantastic!

    We had Special Event Proz as a day of coordinator and photo booth. Kristina, our coordinator, was FANTASIC. She had a direct line to all of our vendors throughout the week beforehand, and handled all of our friends/family from all over the country so well both at the rehearsal and wedding. We never wanted or worried for anything and she made sure we had a beautiful, smooth, truly the happiest day. The photo booth was also a huge hit and the operators were so great, we cant wait to get all of the files! Thank you Special Event Proz!!

    Special Event Proz's reply:

    Thank you so much Jael :) We are honored to be a part of this Special Day. Please feel free to share our info with anyone else you want to make sure we help them have the happiest day of their lives :) You were awesome to get us all the info we needed to help us help you :)

    Great experience with the whole team!

    The whole Special Event Proz team was absolutely incredible and made our wedding day as perfect as we could have imagined. Kristina was such an amazing wedding planner and coordinator. She was super easy to work with and was always quick to respond over text or email. She had great suggestions and was very accommodating with our requests. Not to mention, Kristina did all this while my husband and I were living in separate states for school and work, and she stayed with us through 2 postponements amid a global pandemic. During the day of the wedding, everything between the venue and all the vendors was perfectly coordinated. She was very attentive and constantly checked in with us to make sure everything was going well (which it always was because of her great planning). DJ Mike was also excellent. He took our selection of songs and added in ones that he knew we would also love. The music perfectly matched the vibe of the reception the whole night. A bunch of our guests also commented that the music was great. The photographers, Erick and Gia, were super fun to work with. They had great ideas for poses and seemed to always pop out of nowhere when we wanted a picture with guests. We’re super excited to see how all the pictures turn out.

    Special Event Proz's reply:

    It was our pleasure Jocelyn & Rogelio! We had so much fun mixing and hanging the string lights! The photo booth was a hit as well. Congratulation one more time! Hearing the speeches was very touching and are excited for your lifetime of dances together! Keep in touch

    Great Experience

    This is an honest review for a paid customer. Michael truly went above and beyond for our wedding. We booked a Photo Booth with Michael. From the beginning he was responsive, professional and extremely courteous. He also was the best price when I was shopping around. He made things easy for us as he coordinated with our wedding planner. His associate showed up on time on the day of the event and was exactly as described. The printer went down during the wedding, so after the event was over Michael printed a copy for each guest that was in each photo (~600+ photos) and overnighted them to us. We included them in our thank you letters and it ended up being perfect. Michael is truly a professional and really cares about the reputation of his business. Therefore, he will go above and beyond for your event. I would absolutely book him and his team in the future. Thanks again Michael.

    Hello Kaye, Thank you, we look forward to working with you again soon. We enjoyed your event. It was an honor to be there to share this special day with you all.

    High Quality, Affordable

    My husband and i had a surprisingly hard time finding a good photographer who was experienced working with LGBT couples. We ended up with Special Event DJZ Because they were were the most LGBT friendly. They sent us Dajuana Jones as our photographer and she was amazing to work with. We absolutely loved her. She was very friendly and had a great creative vision for the photos.

    Also, we originally booked them pre-COVID and they were very flexible and accommodating when we had to make a lot of changes.

    Great to work with!

    We used Special Event Proz for our DJ and videographer, and they did such an incredible job. They worked with us through all the changes that COVID brought about, and supported us on our big day. They had excellent communication, and worked to make our vision a reality. Thank you for making our day so special and being a wonderful partner in the wedding planning process!

    AMAZING, Couldn’t have been better!

    From start to end of one year of planning for our wedding. Michael & Kristina went above and beyond to make sure our special day way perfect. They thought of every single detail before hand. Kristina is amazing she kept me very organized with all the details and never made me feel overwhelmed. She helped in every and any way she could. My whole family and our bridal party loved her. She is literally perfection. Very professional, patient, and kind through the entire process. She was always available to help no matter how or small the question was she always answered in a timely matter. Michael is a GEM he puts his whole heart and soul into his company. He sticks to his word and he gets things done. When we had an issue with our venue he did everything humanly possible to make sure we got what we wanted. Don’t hesitate and please book them for your event. I promise it’ll be the best money spent. When I tell you our wedding was perfect I mean it. I’m still in shock. Also Michael is an awesome DJ! He had the dance floor full all night.
    Our 3 favorite things
    1. Equipment & lighting is clean and new
    2. Their website makes planning easy
    3. Most importantly Professionalism & positivity

The expertise is unmatched.The equipment they use is top of the line, The attention to detail is top notch. For everything they provide, their prices are unmatched. They're professional but not stuffy, after everything they all helped me through throughout this process, I feel like I also got some new friends out of this deal lol. Honestly, hire Special Event DJz, you'll be SO glad that you did.

    Professional and high quality equipment

    Professional and high quality equipment. We loved out monogram with our names, the sound was great and the owner, Micheal is always a burst of energy. He responded to every call, text, or email I ever sent which was amazing. I also paid to have cake Mapping done and it turned out BEAUTIFUL. It was exactly what we wanted. The only thing that was disappointing was our actual DJ, DJ Noel messed up a few notes we gave him for our timeline and things we wanted done. Along with that, I provided an english and spanish playlist and he only used a handful of what I asked him to play and the rest was what he chose to play instead. When making announcements, he sometimes sounded a bit abrupt or unsure of what was being announced so it showed that he was inexperienced at being an MC. I'm giving this company 5 stars because they are worth that rating...minus that specific DJ himself. Had it been a more experienced DJ, it would have all been absolutely perfect but I know that isn't Micheals' fault, he just needs to give Noel way more training.

    “Balling on a budget”

    My entire wedding planning process was based on the concept and plan to pay as little as possible, especially because every little detail adds up!! While I didn’t wanna spend a fortune, I did want it to look nice, and not be apparent that I was trying to be on such a tight budget. Special Event DJZ was the answer to my DJ needs!! They fit perfectly in my budget and I didn’t have to sacrifice any details. They were able to provide services for the ceremony and reception; including a projector screen for the reception as well as lighting and a photo booth for a phenomenal price. Simon was awesome!! He was very professional and easy to work with. He was always available to communicate conveniently through text and met with me to go over all the details. There were quite a few details too, as I had specific songs for everyone’s entrance into the reception, as well as unique and personal song selections for the ceremony. He made all my visions a reality and made my special day all that I could’ve hoped for.

    Special Event Proz's reply:

    It was a pleasure working with you Rhyan!! Helping make you wedding special was easy and fun, and it went so nicely. All the guests gave off a great vibe too. We hope to see you in the future should you have any other DJ needs!

    Thanks,
    DJ Simon

    When my husband and I hired DJZ it was amazing from the start. The way everything was organized and straight to the point, put our minds at easy. Me being the bride and having fifty billion things to think about, knowing that by just answering a few questions and telling DJZ what I wanted, everything was taken care of. Plus it didn't matter what time of day it was, if I had a worry or needed to add on anything, DJZ was there. Witch in my opinion is down right amazing. When it came to the wedding, DJZ couldn't have done a better job. Everything was right on schedule, all the songs that needed to be played, got played at the right moments. I truly believe if we hired anyone else, I wouldn't be this happy with how everything turned out. DJZ is a truly professional company and we would recommend them to anyone.

    Special Event DJZ, Michelle Kim and DJZ BLU are the absolute best! They made our daughters Sweet 16 such a wonderful event. The Great Staff, DJ, Music, Photo Booth, and lightning along with the ease of their online website made it easy and such a pleasure to work with in creating my daughters special day. Best communication with the staff, best prices and GREAT MUSIC really made our event a success. I definitely recommend them for your next event and will hire them at our future events. They will definitely have everyone on the dance floor!

    We had a great experience with Michael! He was professional and great to work with before, during and even after our event! We told him what we wanted and he delivered! Michael was very engaging with our guests and knew exactly how to see to it that everyone had an amazing evening! We were very fortunate to find and hire him and he made an exciting day even more memorable. It is often difficult to find a person who will be able to understand the likes and tastes of all your guests while staying within the parameters of your theme, but Michael was able to do just that. His vast selection of music along with his interpersonal style had everyone dancing and having a great time. Everything went smoothly and the entertainment was one less thing we had to think about! I highly recommend Michael!
