Jono was absolutely awesome, everyone was up and dancing the whole night. He was super accommodating, communicative, professional and great value. Would absolutely book again!

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ, Jono was so helpful. Our DJ cancelled last minute on us and Jono was able to step in a week from the wedding and make our DJ dreams come true. I couldn’t have asked for a better guy to do that! He was super reliable and played the best music all night. Once again couldn’t recommend him enough! Also very easy to communicate with and just an all round great guy.

We loved working with Jono for our wedding. We planned our wedding from overseas, and Jono made the whole process really easy for us. He was friendly, easy going, easy to communicate with, and had some good suggestions for things we hadn’t even thought about.
Our wedding guest list had a diverse age group and he managed to play a range of songs that kept everyone happy and engaged on the dance floor. He even incorporated some traditional songs really successfully! Everyone (including the oldies) had an awesome time! It truly was super easy working with Jono and a real pleasure.

Thank you Jono for a stress free wedding DJ experience!! Jono was great to communicate with leading up to the day, considered all our guests song requests that we sent beforehand and easily made the night with his DJ’ing!!
We loved that Jono facilitated a whole night of dancing with his music and that there was never a lull on the dance floor. Thanks again for a great night!

The key moment in your special day and for something so important, trusting a professional like me is one of the best decisions you can make. With a portable, light-weight, battery powered system with microphones that’s ideal for indoor or outdoor Ceremonies, I can cater for locations like beaches, parks and reserves where power is not an option..
I’ll take care of the music as guests arrive, the Processional (walking down the aisle), the Register Signing and the Recessional (as you exit as Husband & Wife) while you and you guests focus on the special moment.
Let’s party! Celebrate your special day with family and friends without having to worry about the music. When it comes to the music, I’ve got it covered. I’m a maestro, able to read the crowd, know what’s hot…and what’s not so sit back and relax!
I don’t take up much space. I’ve got a professional and tidy set up so no need for tables from the venue and no unsightly cables showing. Top-of-the-range equipment ensures crystal clear sound and just the right lighting to go from ceremony vibe to party time but with a range of Enhancements and Photo Booths to add extra wow if needed.
Every wedding is different, so these packages below have a starting price but final pricing can be tailored to your specific event. Pricing can vary based on dates and time of year.
