Sam was the DJ for our wedding and kept everyone on the dance floor the whole night! Thank you so much for being part of our special day.

Thank you both so much, Delaney! I’m really glad I got to be a part of your special day.
Matthew Francis
Sam did an amazing job keeping the dance floor moving. He kept the floor full all night, handled on-the-fly changes (that we made) in scheduling, and helped coordinate the night. He went above and beyond editing our first dance song so that it would fit our choreography. His sound system handled our outdoor venue like a champ. He was an excellent communicator leading up to the wedding and was proactive with messaging us, which was extremely helpful when we were swamped in the last-minute wedding prep. More...

Miguel and Jennifer
We hired Sam as our DJ just 8 days after deciding to elope & have a small intimate ceremony with our family! Sam completely met our expectations!
From the start, his attention to detail and suggestions made planning a bit easier since we were on a time crunch. He followed our vision perfectly, creating a nice flow that set the tone for an incredible evening.
The first 1.5 hours went very well with our entrance, to our first dance, dances with our parents, cake cutting and a few speeches and then Sam took over, energizing the crowd and filling the dance floor with his awesome song choices. He captured the vibe of the night, turning it into an unforgettable celebration of dancing and fun that our family has been talking about all week, including ourselves!!
Sam is an exceptional DJ who knows how to make the moment special. His professionalism, talent, and ability to keep the energy alive throughout the evening were awesome. We definitely plan to use him for any upcoming events in the future and highly recommend him!

Working with Sam is always a breeze. I have worked with him twice as a wedding photographer, and each time he has been very attentive and communicative with me, making each wedding day run smoothly and efficiently as possible, additionally helping make my job easier as well! I would recommend working with him as a wedding vendor. More...

DJ
Sam was absolutely terrific. His attention to detail and organization before the wedding (song lists, etc.) was really first class. He then surpassed that at the actual wedding! Really a top notch DJ that we couldn't be happier with!! More...
Nora Cooper
DJ
Sam was so easy to work with and did a great job! We spoke initially but after it was via email and text which I love. Responded quickly to any questions I had and let us send him song lists;
one for the birthday girl and one for us old people! He showed up early and the sound system was awesome! We all had a great time rocking out to our favorite music.
I highly recommend Sam for your next event

Dear Mikaela, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your kind sentiments. It is truly an honor to be part of your and CJ's momentous occasion. Please accept my very best wishes.
Kiran and Tim
Sam was wonderful! I spoke with him months ago when trying to figure out if I could even afford a DJ! He was reasonable and was able to quote me a price that worked within my budget.
Months later once it was closer to my wedding, he reached out to me and asked for any choices I had for my bridal entrance song as well as the exit, and also said he could suggest some if I didn’t have any!
I ended up picking both out of his list…he sent an amazing violin and piano instrumental version of Haley’s “can’t help falling in love with you”, that just gave me goosebumps, it was so perfect!
He was never too pushy or too lackadaisical about needing my lists etc. he would gently nudge at the appropriate times, and it was always just in time for when I needed to get it to him.
All this was in preparation for my complicated 2 part, fusion wedding.
On day of, Sam was an A+! It was amazing to think of never actually met him in person!
He arrived early, set everything up in both locations, and everything went off without a hitch! It was flawless!
I can’t even imagine all the work that he put in behind the scenes to make it all work so well!
Not a single mic feedback issue, no missed cues-nothing!
I couldn’t have asked for a better DJ experience.
Sam, if you’re reading this…THANK YOU!!!
Prospective brides, family, party event planners-if you’re considering San, HIRE HIM!!
You will not regret it!
I had an amazing, flawless wedding and reception, and I have Sam to thank for his diligent preparation, and flawless execution.
He even played Indian music for the later part of the reception when my cousin asked him to play some dance beats.
I can’t recommend him enough! He took requests, when we requested he keep the music to a conversational level for the dinner part, he obliged!
It’s as if he was a part of the family! I was listening to the music he played over dinner, and I thought it was MY playlist, it was so perfectly in tune with what I liked!
he listened when we discussed my vision, and he DELIVERED!!
Sam, thank you!!!!!

DJ Sam played for my two wedding events and I’ll say he was very professional. The music selection was very good and he also incorporated late requests from friends and family.
He was patient, listened and did an excellent job playing for me. I’ll certainly depend on him for my future party needs.
Thank you Sam.

I would highly recommend DJ Sam Vada for any occasion. We worked with him for our son’s 6th birthday party, and he was a hit with the kids and adults! Not only is his music selection fantastic, he is incredibly professional, courteous and very reasonably priced for the level of service and great entertainment. Several people left the party saying they need to get his contact information for future events. Great person and great DJ! More...

Maricel Pablo
DJ
DJ Sam is a very professional DJ come on time service was pretty decent I highly recommended his service and budget friendly. One thing I comment is I sent him 2 months the genre that I like but he did not prepare my genre Im hoping that night will be the hit of 60’s, 70’s and 80’s thats what I requested but I heard some but not a lot I expecting the guest non stop dancing but he played his own list majority was hip hop thats why the guest stop dancing when he played the song that we dont know how to dance the rhythm, thats why I will give him 4 star , tnx again dj Sam, More...
Reply from DJ Sam Vada
I'm so sorry it wasn't what you expected, Maricel. I played most of the songs that were on your playlist. I took song requests from your guests that were missing from your playlist (mostly hip hop, etc). I'm going to do better next time. I truly appreciate your business. Thank you.

Thank you so much, Sarah. I had a great time working for you and your beautiful family/friends. Everyone was wonderful and that makes my job as a DJ more fun.
Jenny Jenkins
Last night, Sam Vada was the DJ for our 50th class reunion! From the beginning, he was proactive sending a email asking which songs we wanted for our Reunion and suggested using “Spotify”.
This was new to me, but I soon discovered
making a playlist with Spotify was easy and fun. It created a link to all our songs which we are also sharing with each other.
Sam arrived early, introduced himself and we showed him where to set up. He was professional and organized and started on time with songs for the evening.
Sam stayed in the background, letting us use his mic for announcements and communicating with classmates. He was very easy to work with and if we wanted him to be more present vocally with the event, I’m sure he would have done that for us.
I was impressed with how Sam was happy to run the sound just how we wanted it and it turned out perfect!
I’m glad Adelle found him!
Thank you, Sam and keep those Motown sounds from the 70’s playing strong and don’t forget “Tower of Power” from Oakland a great Funk/Jazz groove!
Bless you, Jenny

Adelle
DJ
Sam did ever the promised to do. Additionally, he played our selected music from our Spotify list even though 25% of the songs he had never heard.
He gave us the BEST price. I checked 5 DJs before selecting him.
Sam turned down the volume when we requested, so we could tell. He turned up the volume for us to dance, as requested.
Sam was kind the entire night, with a big handsome smile. Always ready to please. He was perfect for our high school 50th reunion.

Dj Sam was very professional, prompt, friendly. He was great to work with from the start and was very responsive at all times.
He spent time out of his day to speak with us, meet with us, and plan to make sure he knew our needs/wants and how we could meet them.
He was very nice and a great DJ! He got the crowd to dance and the hits were the group dances!
We recommend DJ Sam to others for future events!

What’s the secret to keeping a party dancing all night long?
Knowing and understanding the client's expectations and ensuring to meet or exceeding those expectations. Paying attention to the sound coming out of the PA system and making sure the sound is of good quality. Watching the people on the dance floor to read their reactions and body language to make the right song choices and transitions are made.
How would you describe your ‘style’?
I am more of an open-format DJ; I play lots of different styles of music in my mixes.
What do you love most about your job?
Seeing that my clients and their guests are having a great time on the dance floor. It is fun being a part of important moments in someone else's life.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I enjoy the freedom to make my own schedule and work when I want to so that I am able to be there for my children's important events.
Why should our clients choose you?
I am reliable, friendly and outgoing. I will help a client with the process of choosing what equipment will be needed for the event. I make sure that I have the songs on the clients playlist and that they are the appropriate version of the song for the event, such as clean versions of songs for a school dance.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
No, I must be present to DJ an event. I do not have the equipment to DJ online or do any performance for a client.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
There is nothing to change as I am a one man show. In situations where masks are required I make sure to keep myself and my clients safe by wearing a mask. I wash my hands and wipe all surfaces.
