We were lucky enough that she was open the weekend of our wedding. Played all the songs we wanted to hear and kept my kids dancing their hearts away! She was recommended from my planner and I was very pleased.
She was the best for the wedding. I couldn't have had a better person as my DJ for my wedding. I highly recommend her.
DJ Staci was super great to work with! She's super detailed and pays attention to all of your requests. We love U2 and DJ Staci put together a really awesome U2 mega mix that had all our friends out there with us! It was the highlight!
She also came up with helpful ideas to make some of our specials guest feel extra special, like offering our first piece of cake to my husbands mom. It made her night!
Thanks again, Staci!!!!!
Absolutely phenomenal! I have nothing but absolutely wonderful things to say about DJ staci. My wedding was bicultural and I had a significant concern about the two cultures clashing. DJ Staci did a beautiful job at blending both cultures where no one felt excluded. The dance floor was full the entire time and she coordinated our grand entrance, toast, shoe game etc. DJ Staci was very detailed when it came to ensuring she had your vision in mind. I HIGHLY recommend DJ Staci! She will ask lots of questions, but only to ensure that she performs above your expectations.
We're so happy to have DJ Staci! We booked DJ Staci for our wedding at Tom Ham's Lighthouse and everything was wonderful! She's a great MC and DJ! Staci is very organized. She asked us questions before the wedding to add the personal touch. Then, she created an outline for us to review. Her introductions included stories about us, like our first date, our adventures together, and our proposal story. Our package with her included the Photo Booth and my guests loved it! We also had flip flops for dancing and foam light sticks, which were awesome! The crowd loved the music and we were all dancing the whole night!! We had so many fun with our friends and family!! Thank you so much, DJ Staci!!!!
DJ Staci was awesome! She does a great job of telling stories about you and is VERY organized!! I had one of my bridesmaids that needed to leave the wedding early and I wanted some specific songs to be played for us to dance to before she left, and even tho we were running behind, Staci was able to mix those songs in seamlessly as soon as the dance floor was open for business! She is great at mixing music so it just flows, no mater the music you want to play. She listens to your "do not play" list very well, so you won't hear anything you don't want to hear.
I for sure recommend to use DJ Staci, she made for a great wedding ceremony and reception! Photo booth was awesome as well and she gets the pictures up quick!
DJ Staci did a wonderful job at our wedding. She was very professional and kept the party moving. She was also a great help in the planning process too.
DJ Staci did a great job at DJ-ing our wedding! I was concerned, as we had a mix of people coming. We wanted to have the best of country, mexican and the current music hits. She did such a great job of incorporating all of it and reading the dance floor to change music genre.
Aside from being an amazing DJ, she setup the timeline for our wedding and kept us on schedule from the ceremony through the reception. Our guests had a great time and hit the dance floor.
She also has a photo booth you can rent. This was a great addition that came at a very good price. Our guests were able to take photostrips as a memento of their time at our wedding. It was self-manned and easy to use. She customizes your background, photo strip and props to your requested needs.
Had a great experience with DJ Staci and really admired her organizational skills. She touched base in the weeks leading up to the wedding, making sure expectations were clear.
We had a simple wedding reception at a beach house. Staci showed up on time- super professional and helped us dance the night away! Will use her again for events ! for certain.
Staci made our wedding day smooth sailing. Staci is so thorough and so focused on making your day a success you really won't be disappointed. With Staci you're paying for a killer DJ and for all the work she puts in to getting to know you and your wedding.
My husband and I booked Staci to DJ our wedding a few weeks ago. Leading up to the big day, Staci was professional and easy to reach. She provided us with a lot of suggestions that we wouldn't have thought of on our own, which we appreciated. She's also very organized and we both felt we could trust her with making our wishes reality.
The day of the wedding, Staci did everything she promised and more. Our guests loved the playlist she came up with and complimented our choice in hiring her as our DJ. There were no technical glitches all night and she didn't repeat any songs, which seems to be a common occurence at the weddings we have attended recently. She also checked in with us several times throughout the night to make sure everything was okay and see if there was anything we needed. We are very happy we had the pleasure of working with Staci and would recommend her to anyone.
When booking our DJ we wanted something that fit our country style. DJ Staci is the BEST!!!! She took all of our visions and crazy requests and put them in full effect!!! She made our reception a night to remember for sure!!! She even got out on the dance floor and taught us a line dance and danced with us!!! We had a BLAST!!! DJ Staci is very detailed oriented. Which is an awesome quality. I had no idea when it came to the order or events and she worked with me until everything was just right! Thank you DJ Staci!!!

Hiring DJ Staci for our event was by far the best decision that we could've done, she was not only a great DJ but also a great MC for our wedding, she was very flexible given the short time notice for our event, we made an effort to meet in person after deciding that she was our best option, she went over everything we needed during our first meeting and a few emails after that, being a bilingual couple, she was the best option for this alone, but she strived to over-deliver in many aspects of our event. We were very happy with the results and the process. Her organizational skills are awesome, it really made a difference for us to just enjoy the event and not worry about many things during the event since she had everything under control. She is definitely a 5 star DJ, I would definitely recommend her to friends and family.
DJ Staci was awesome!! She was on time, has a very nice set up and is well organized. we didn't use the photo booth just music. When i read her bio on her website i like her personality, we met up and boom just like that we booked her. she did give out some homework which is good cause she gets to know your taste in music, a bit about your relationship and a small bio of each other and she puts it all together very well the day of. I would recommend reaching out to her and giving her shot. Great job DJ Staci.. Oh and the sandals for the girls to dance in was on point
DJ Staci was the best choice for DJ we could have made on our special day. Not only is she professional from the first meeting, but she shows genuine interest for the success of the event. She listened carefully to what we wanted and delivered. The wedding reception was a success from Cocktail hour until the last song. She is great at reading a crowd and as soon the open dancing started the dance floor was always full. I especially loved how she took the time to get to know us prior to our wedding through questionnaires and direct person to person meetings. She went on a walk-through of the venue with us and reviewed all the logistics with the wedding coordinator days before the event so that everything would run smoothly. Our guests were super happy with the songs that were played and we were presently surprised that she knew all the different genre requests that we made. I would not think twice about having DJ Staci be our DJ at one of our events again. She helped make our night a positively memorable experience for our guests and for us.
I hired her for my wedding. Our first conversation on the phone was great! She seemed knowledgeable and detailed. We were even extremely excited for her top of the line equipment and photo booth. We looked over her reviews and website thoroughly. She seemed like the perfect fit! We paid her up front her total cost. She reassured us that planning the wedding from out of state was no problem and she would Skype with us for the 2 in-person planning sessions her contract says we would have.
As the months passed with zero contact we completed the 12 part questionnaire with no guidance or her expectations. This was maybe our first mistake.
Her first drafted outline had the wrong name for the groom and cut off most of the information I typed in.
We never received our planning sessions. She just expected us to know what she needed from us. It was nonstop emails back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. All of which could have been satisfied if she would have gave us a planning session.
Then the wedding came. She insisted on having her booth on the floor where everything else was. Thus, her booth is in photos and it took up space on the dance floor. The space provided a band stand where she could of set up and been protected from the crowd (lack there of because it was a small wedding).
She was rude to guest and threatened them if we broke her equipment with the inflated dice that we would be responsible for it. The photo booth was in the band stand where everyone could see who was taking photos. There were 2 young children there. The rest were adults and seniors. She closed the photo booth down 30 minutes early and is claiming the children broke her props. The pics are online. The kids barely touched her precious props. And they were under constant supervision by their parents.
When asked to play different music, she refused. She was a nightmare to work with from the second the payment posted until the second she left the venue and beyond...
I’m giving her 2 stars because she was on time, stuck to the outline, and she has stellar equipment.
I do not recommend her.
DJ Staci exceeded our highest expectations. We had no idea what we were getting into when we booked a wedding DJ, but Staci was professional and unbelievably thorough (she sends out a ton of questionnaires prior to the event). This allowed her to provide exceptional service as everything was custom made to our liking. Not only does she keep the dance floor hot (literally in our sense as it was 85 degrees) but she MCs the whole event and keeps the reception on schedule. You won't be disappointed with DJ Staci, she goes above and beyond!
DJ Staci was our DJ for our June 2018 wedding. From the start she was personable, kind, detailed, and caring. She was very thoughtful with every moment of our day, and took the time to speak with me (a lot) about all the details. She knew how to read a crowd, kept everyone dancing, and made all of the transitions run so smoothly. The photo booth was also a hit and every picture turned out incredibly! We truthfully could not have had such an amazing night if it weren't for her! If I ever again need a talented professional to DJ an event, my first phone call will be to Staci. It should be yours, too!
We found DJ Staci a true resource from the start. Her website is full of guides, resources, and videos that help throughout the planning process. That professionalism was carried over in our meetings where Stace was focused on getting to know us and what we wanted from our DJ. Staci repeatedly found ways to save us money and give us the best value.
Staci’s questionnaires ensured she delivered what we wanted. On the day of the wedding she got a normally shy group out on the dance floor. I am grateful for Staci’s dedication to her work and commitment to making our vision come to life. I thank her for everything she did to make our day special.
Staci did an amazing job at our wedding! We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. If you are looking for a DJ for your wedding or event, we highly recommend her. The dance floor was packed from start to finish of the 6 hour wedding reception. My wife and I come from two different cultures (she is Mexican) so Staci had to balance these cultures and langauages. Everyone felt comfortable and danced continuously. Not only did she do an amazing job at the wedding, but also was very thorough throughout the months before it. DJ Staci replys extremely quickly and helped us organize the details of the reception so it flowed perfectly. We did not have a wedding coordinator and DJ Staci helped fill that void. She was a huge asset to the wedding and we couldn’t have asked for a better DJ or better night.
Thank you Staci for the wonderful experience. You were the best DJ for the event!
DJ Staci is amazing. There's no other way to describe her and her work. After meeting with her I knew that our special day was in good hands. She is beyond professional and stops at nothing to make sure the event runs smoothly. She makes sure everything is in place to ensure a good time. We were very much involved in the planning process and I knew exactly what to expect at our wedding.. from the schedule, the songs, the atmosphere, EVERYTHING. I wish we could get married again, just so we can enjoy another DJ Staci party! Her photo booth was also phenomenal and kept guests entertained when they weren't out on the dance floor!
She was great! She played all the music that we asked and then some. Stacy really knows how to mix it up and play the right music to get people dancing and keep them there.
Staci had some great ideas when she came to do the walk through prior to the wedding. We implemented most of her ideas which were spot on. She's a great resource.
DJ Staci was my first decision and by far THE BEST! I went off of the reviews on The Knot and was completely uncertain of what I’d get for a destination wedding, however, from the first phone call, it just felt right! What I was NOT looking for was a DJ to ignore our requests and preferred genre of music and Staci was the complete opposite. She is a true professional that takes her work seriously! By that I mean, you can expect to do homework before the big day. What I didn’t realize, was that doing the homework was going to lead to an exceptional and organized event! I knew exactly what was coming and when and let’s face it, on your big day, the last thing you want to worry about is how your ceremony and party is going to go or how names will be pronounced. DJ Staci took care of it all down to the very last detail and I so appreciate her for it! She was the coolest and even spent time with my wedding guests to get their likes and tastes in music. It was a perfect day! I HIGHLY recommend you choose DJ Staci whether in San Diego area or destination like mine (Cabo San Lucas, MX) for your wedding or next event!
It was such a blessing to have found Staci, she helped organize our wedding into a fluid event. I have worked in the event industry for over 10 years and found her to be more like an Event Coordinator. Her questions were on the spot and detailed, it really brought our wedding into a more organized and well thought out event! We felt very comfortable knowing the evening was in her hands.
Staci was spot on! She delivered exactly what what we had discussed, was very professional, and the price was fair. Everyone at our wedding had a blast with the extensive amount of props provided and the photos were EPIC!!! I would definitely use her again. Thanks Staci!!!
DJ Staci went above and beyond to make our wedding day perfect. Her professionalism throughout the whole process amazed us and made her stand out as one of our top vendors. Her insight, patience and flexibility helped us to create the timeline and playlists we wanted. Our guests had an amazing time and we couldn't have asked for a more perfect day :) Thank you DJ Staci!
Staci was a great help to us while we were trying to organise a wedding from over 8,000 miles away. She helped give our day structure and although at times we felt a little regimented, we did really appreciate how well everything came together. She got the party started and all our guests appreciated her enthusiasm. We would definitely recommend Staci as a wedding DJ to others, especially for weddings at the Prado, Balboa Park where she knew the space well and gave good suggestions.
We found DJ Staci after happening across a Youtube video of hers where she outlines what to really ask your wedding DJ. She was so knowledgeable and insightful, we knew we wanted her! After booking, she sent several surveys, did a venue walkthrough, and had a conference call with us to get a clear picture of what we had in mind. She was also very easy to contact and had a lot of suggestions. On the day of, she was very professional and helped keep the timeline running smoothly. She even let me know when setup was needing a little guidance. This was so important to me since I did not have a coordinator. Staci isn't quite the "warm and fuzzy" type, but that's not what I needed from her. She was on point and professional with getting the job done and keeping guests entertained.
Stacey was amazing! She was my wedding Mary poppins! Everything I needed she was able to provide me: officiate our ceremony, DJ, and photobooth! She kept me involved every step of the way and was just as axcited as I was about my wedding. She truest invests her emotions and time into your special day and I couldn't imagine not having her involved.
I hired DJ Staci about a year before my wedding. I actually found her while looking for playlists on Pinterest. I loved the playlist she had put together and decided to contact her to get a quote. She was very reasonable and well within our budget. I spoke to her on the phone before hiring her and instantly hit it off with her. She was such a pleasure to work with from the very beginning. She was accommodating, kept in touch, and on the night of our wedding even made it a point to come up to us and ask if there was anything more she could help with. She was great about the variety of music she was playing since our wedding was a bilingual one. She knew how to get everyone on their feet. I received many compliments afterwards on how great the music was and overall the night went beyond what I could have ever hoped for. I can't rave enough of how great a professional DJ Staci was, but also overall she is just an awesome person. Thank you for all your hard work and making this such a great experience to work with you from beginning all the way to the very end. <3
We had DJ Staci MC our wedding this past weekend and I can't tell you how many compliments we got from our guests on her music selection. She read the crowd so well and also was flexible the day of the wedding because after all, it is a live event! Also, her photo booth was such a hit! People LOVED it and had so much fun! I think everyone did it at least once! I highly highly recommend booking it! Our vendors made our wedding day unbelievable and DJ Staci was part of that team that made it possible.
Very easy going in our meeting leading up to wedding and very professional at the wedding so best of everything. Asked a lot of questions about the type of music we wanted and played great music. Got to know our venue and plan and didn't try to sell us a bunch of stuff we didn't need (in fact would say, you don't need this, don't spend money on it, etc). Staci also emceed our wedding which was great - made everything flow smoothly and without a bunch of corny jokes (one of many great reasons to choose a woman as your DJ). We were very happy with Staci's work, would book her again.
DJ Staci was part of our wedding in March, 2017. She was very prompt and informative through the entire planning process. She worked well with me to customize exactly what we needed for our smaller wedding. We were also behind schedule the day of our wedding and she easily adjusted the schedule and made the evening flow. Our guests enjoyed her music and personality. Overall, I would definitely recommend DJ Staci for your wedding!
DJ Staci was amazing! We are both Hispanic and wanted a bilingual DJ that knows the Mexican wedding traditions, she was perfect! She was organized with her timeline and her setup was so clean. Definitely not your typical DJ setup. My dress' busel was dragging and could not be lifted on how it was intended. I was dragging my dress and DJ Staci helped right away! On a day that your mind is not the clearest, I really appreciated this. Heard many great reviews for the DJ from our guests. She definitely kept the party going! So happy to have booked her!
Best DJ we had since coming to USA for events. Way to go girl!!!
There several components that make a great wedding. The DJ and Entertainment services are one of the biggest aspects of a wedding and rarely do they get enough credit for appropriately setting the mood throughout the entire event. Staci and her team were able to keep the entire atmosphere at our wedding electric from the ceremony all the way through the cocktail hour, dinner and then the dancing. I think one of the best compliments I can give is that I didn't notice that there was a DJ per se but just an amazing feeling as each part of our event passed through the evening. There's nothing worse than listening to music that isn't mixed well and doesn't flow smoothly. Staci is also a great MC so throw that icing on your cake and you've got a great event.
Staci offers a lot of tools, support and recommendations when you are planning an event that can help guide you if you have never been involved in planning a wedding. For example I would not have thought to tell her to never play the Macarena but she made sure to cover all aspects of the music scene so that we were in control of what was being played and what was not being played. There also isn't a genre that she isn't familiar with so you can be sure to get the music that is right for your event.
Revolution Weddings also has other services which we did not purchase, but we did hire a day of coordinator Mikaela who was also a godsend. These ladies are organized and professional. You can be sure that if they are making suggestions and providing professional advice it's because they are the best in their line of business and want to ensure that you have an excellent event.
My wife and I fully recommend this company for DJ services and Event Coordination Services.
Thank you Staci and thank you Mikaela!!
I hired DJ Staci for mw work party, which was a country theme. My goal was to have a DJ engage the crowd and get them involved. She was able to do that and MORE! Even though I'm sure it felt like pulling teeth, she got it done and I could not have asked for a better DJ. I got exactly what I wanted... People on the dance floor. If you are like me and not sure if people will get out and dance at your event, hire DJ Staci... She will make it happen!
Staci was AMAZING! Pretty tough genres she had to blend and she did it seamlessly. Everyone had a great time at our "Gangsta Rap" throwback party. Her ability to take everything we asked for (Hip hop, County, sing-a-longs, and some mello drinking music) and blend them throughout the night was incredible. I would 100% use her again for pretty much any party. With all of that being said, the thing that sets Staci apart is her total professionalism in regards to customer service, responsiveness, and preparedness. I've been to A LOT of weddings, parties, etc...and I have yet to meet a DJ who genuinely satisfied every party need we hoped for...until now. Thanks for making my girl's party a blast and hope to see you again soon!
I can't describe enough how great Staci was to work with. She was very nice and easily approachable, so there was no awkwardness or pressure when dealing with her. She kept in constant contact and reminded us whenever any important planning milestones were coming up. She's very detail-oriented and was willing to work through multiple revisions of our event outline with us to make sure everything was perfect. The final outline for our wedding day was very detailed.
MC:
Staci was an excellent MC for our reception. She had a very positive energy and did a great job announcing events and engaging the audience in what was going on throughout the night.
DJ:
Other than a few specific songs we wanted played, we opted to let Staci read the crowd and choose music at her own discretion. It was magical! We had several different groups of people there, many who had never met before (childhood friends, college friends, co-workers, relatives from both sides of our families, etc). She was able to get everyone in on the dance party, young and old alike. There was an energy in that room of the likes I've never seen before and I know a lot of that could be attributed to Staci's impeccable skill at reading the flow of the crowd. If we could do it all over again, we'd have no problem picking Staci as our MC/DJ again. As a matter of fact, we'll definitely be recommending her to any of our friends in need of a DJ for their wedding!
Ok. Where to begin. I really don't think 3500 characters will be enough for me. Staci didn't organise my wedding, infact I found her by accident as a couple of great friends were preparing to tie the knot. They were just looking for a female DJ for their reception based in San Diego. But from a random search on the internet I came across Staci and asked my friends if she was what they were looking for. SHE WAS. They hired her for the entire ceremony. The thing is with Staci although she centers on the couple getting married first and foremost for her her duties don't stop there. Staci is driven by ensuring that ALL family and friends have envolvemnt too and Staci will always go out of her way to try and ensure their needs, wants, and suggestions are met too. I say this because I am UK based so therefore I couldn't (due to personal reasons) attend my friends ceremony. Staci wasn't having that, she knew how important my friends wedding was to me and through email she ensured that even from afar I felt like I was there too.
Bottom line is. If you want a wedding planner/organiser that puts nothing less that 110% of sweat and dedication into making YOUR day the best it can be, then you need Staci. No Ifs, buts, no whyfors about it.
If you're looking for more than just a DJ then Staci is your girl. She knows how to put a personal touch to create something truly special for you. First off I knew nothing about planning a wedding and with her detailed timeline it helped me out so much she gave such great input and helped me so much. On top of that she played such great music our guests loved the props and had a great time she played music that completely fight our personalities it was awesome.
I planned my wedding for over a year and Staci's lack of attention to detail and professionalism made a lot of that planning useless. And it didn't stop after the wedding.
Firstly, I hired Staci for a few services: officiant, DJ, photography, videography. I'm going to skip all the little things that occurred prior to the wedding and focus on the unbelievable things she did on my day and after.
1). Planned all my music and when it should play down to the minute and second. Prior to me walking down the aisle, when my now husband was at the altar, the music wasn't playing right. My husband asked Staci what was happening. I kid you not she replied "sorry he is new" (he being the guy queueing the music).
-pehaps don't use a customers wedding to train employees considering ya know... It's their wedding.
2). She cried while officiating the ceremony and honestly it felt fake and was weird. I didn't know her before this so she had 0 emotional investment. Everyone asked if we were friends and when I said no, they couldn't understand especially if you're a professional and do this all the time.
3). The song we walked back down the aisle to was queued at the wrong time aka the beginning so actually wasn't queued at all, which was frustrating because once again these were details I provided to her and this was a moment I was looking forward to.
4). Had a groomsmen drop out day of which changed the order of the bridal party. All my vendors scrambled to make it work. Staci? Staci says with any changes she will mess things up so we need to keep it the same. Interesting response for someone who does this all the time.
5). When it came time to eat Staci asked if my photographer could go before everyone because she was pregnant and not feeling well. I said yes, but it's important to note the entire staff of Staci's got food as well and my MoH was 9 months at the time and they went before her.
6). Had my marriage certificate sent back to me from the county. As the officiant, she didn't even touch the pen to the paper to sign it or write her information. I had to mail the certificate to her at my cost so she could sign it and send it in to the county again. She offered to print a couple extra pictures for me for the inconvenience, which I will discuss in point 7.
7). Apparently I took to long to pick the photos I wanted printed so she sent me a very unprofessional email basically saying she can't have me taking up the space on her computer and I need to choose them within a week or she's deleting them.
-she could've asked nicely and I would've been happy to oblige.
-After all the ways she ruined my wedding and the planning I put into it, she couldve tried to be a bit more accommodating
Overall, I was extremely disappointed and dissatisfied. After planning for over a year, I could have thrown it together in a month for all anyone knows because that's how she made it look. She offers a money back guarantee, which I doubt she has ever granted, but regardless I wouldn't have asked for because it doesn't change the fact that I spent over a year planning my wedding with her surveys and it was useless.
Please use someone else. Even 8 months later, it's hard to not think about all of her screw ups when talking about what's supposed to be the happiest day of my life. I have the dream husband but she pretty much ruined my dream wedding.
We hired Staci for two reasons: one, she agreed to work with us in the US and in Mexico, where the actual wedding took place; two, she had great reviews on the Knot. We very much regret our decision: Staci was incredibly rude, short tempered, uncooperative, uninviting, and most importantly detracted from our big day. Some examples of this: Staci refused to explore reggae dance songs for us, instead demanding we put together the playlist. Who's the DJ here? We basically had to pick out every single song she played at the wedding, which is very time consuming. When we attempted to share the playlists with her via spotify, she was again obstinate and refused to open a free account to access the list. This sums up what it's like dealing with her: you never get to say what you want and get a "no problem, I'll make that happen" response. There's always extra attitude and steps and onus falls on you. We paid her to be at our rehearsal with the reasonable expectation that she would have input on the time line and some of the decision making. No, she sat with her arms crossed, a nasty look on her face, and would only provide snappy answers to direct questions. One of our kindest guests, just in an effort to start a conversation with her, said: "oh hi, you must be the DJ?" Staci's response: "yeah, what do you think?" On the big day, we were met with the worst of it. "That's not my job" was her response when we asked her to get the ball rolling on the champagne toast. Seriously? It's part of the timeline SHE put together! Because turning on the microphone she's sitting in front of and alerting the caterers that we need glasses and the guests that it's time would be really hard, apparently. We wrapped up photos a bit early and when we approached the reception hall, Staci REFUSED to alter her timeline and announce us, trying to making us sit outside until the dinner was ready! What?? After 15 minutes of sitting outside, I had to be harsh with her at that point and say: "go in there right now and announce were coming in. The food will be ready whenever it's ready, what difference does it make?" When coordinating our grand entrances, we were all having a blast figuring out our dance moves until Staci snapped: "it'd sure be nice if you would LISTEN when I was talking!!" During the entire dance portion of the evening, Staci sat with arms crossed and a nasty look on her face. In fact, I didn't see her smile on one single occasion during all the time we had to suffer her presence. The three songs she played that we didn't pick out had nothing to do with our musical tastes at all. Apparently she's really into gangster rap. Worst of all, Staci failed as a DJ: she didn't even play the right songs at the wedding. For the brides entrance, she played the wrong version of Florence and the Machine that had lyrics. During the father-daughter dance, she played an almost inaudible, scratchy version of Sinatra that couldn't even be heard by the guests. In summary, she's not worth the money, not good at her job, and not a pleasant person.
Absolutely Awesome! Staci did the audio for my ceremony, reception, and MC'ed the entire affair. It was great! People were always dancing and having a great time! What I noticed most was even before our wedding, Staci is a meticulous planner, prepared an extensive timeline for the wedding and we had at length discussions about the details and unique happenings of my wedding day - by the time the Big day came I had zero concerns or worries as to how everything would pan out.
Hire Staci if you want a professional with exceptional DJing skills. Hire Staci if you want someone who is dependable and has experience. Hire Staci if you want your reception party to be a night all of your guests will never forget. Hire Staci because she is super cool. I'm so very glad I did.
When it came to planning my wedding, picking a DJ was one of the things I was most nervous about. I am so glad I found Revolution Weddings and DJ Staci. As soon as I had my consult, I knew that I could trust Staci to help me with my big day. Staci was very thorough and wanted to know as much as she could about me and my groom-to-be. She made sure that everything she was going to do was tailored to us and our preferences. We encountered a couple hiccups in the last days leading up to the wedding and Staci was there to help me sort it all out…even though the problems dealt more with floor planning at the venue! On our actual wedding day, Staci was AWESOME. she followed the plan we made exactly and kept our dance floor full. That last fact was especially impressive because we had a brunch time wedding. I am so happy that we picked Revolution Weddings to handle our wedding DJing and I am sure their other services are just as awesome. I would absolutely recommend Rev Weddings and DJ Staci to anyone and everyone!
We hired DJ, photography, and (perhaps the most important in my opinion) Day Of Coordination services. DJ Staci goes above and beyond to make sure all your questions are answered and every corner of every detail is covered. She met with us several times to ensure we felt comfortable and even walked through the venue with us to give us her expertise and additional advice we didn't even think to ask about. For full disclosure, I do want to point out that DJ Staci is a type-A personality, and because I'm also type-A (and we're both detail-oriented planners) we tended to clash a little via email communication along the planning process...but all-in-all, I can't complain because I always knew that she was looking out for us and providing suggestions/feedback to help our wedding be the best it could for us and our guests.
When you book her DJ services you basically have them for the entire day, which worked well because they were setup with plenty of time to spare and I never once felt like they were running late or scrambling to get ready. DJ Staci played the music for our ceremony and also provided microphone services for our officiant/vows. And her packages are really well put-together. The only major issue during the ceremony was with the equipment - the microphone sound cutout from the very beginning of the ceremony and no one could hear the officiant or our vows beyond the first few rows of our family. It was disappointing, but we also understand that some things involving technology/equipment can't be helped. But perhaps inquire about backup options, going forward... Other than that, the music played was exactly as we asked - it was an upbeat party, and all of our guests commented on our wedding "being the most fun wedding they've ever attended" in large part to the dance music.
We hired Abbey as our photographer, and just loved working her!! She was able to give us suggestions and "guide" us along during the bridal party photos, which was such a hard task with such a rowdy bunch. The photography package was exactly what we wanted - 2 photographers, a primary for a longer period of time, and a secondary for a shorter period of time. We were able to get exactly what we wanted, with Abbey coming to the bridal suite and taking "preparation" photos in the hotel room, and then meet us at the venue to get our bridal party /bride & groom photos. She's very easy to work with and we really enjoyed our time with Abbey.
I don't think our special day would have been the same without our Day Of Coordinator, Mikaela and her team. We hired her to setup our decorations and centerpieces. We hired a separate florist to put together the florals, but Mikaela set up the other smaller details that aren't touched by a florist - placecards, candles, memory candle, signage, seating charts, favors. Our theme for our wedding was "Enchanted Forest/Garden" and we had so much moss, moss rocks, ivy vines, mushrooms, and various little details that would have taken my bridal party forever to setup (and quite frankly, it probably wouldn't have looked half as good as how Mikaela did it). She coordinated our rehearsal at the venue, she ensured that all the moving parts (aka vendors - whether they were with the R3volution Weddings team or not) were scheduled and arriving on time and set up exactly as planned. They were so prepared, and really helped me to make my vision come to life. I cannot thank her and her team enough!!!
Our wedding was 8/7/15, and we used Revolution Weddings services for our DJ (Staci), Photo-Booth, and ceremony up-lighting! I love how Revolution Weddings is a one stop shop, and the prices are reasonable! After ample amounts of research my husband (crazy to call him that now) and I found Revolution Weddings to be the best bang for our buck! The services DJ Staci offers are excellent! She goes above and beyond other DJ's I've seen at weddings/events. She is extremely organized, detail oriented and did a great job at staying on track with the timeline on our wedding day (which she also helped create)! Everyone at our wedding keeps telling us how much fun they had and how much they LOVED DJ Staci; and that says A LOT considering DJ Staci had a diverse set of audience to get out there on the dance floor! Thank you very much Staci for playing a key role in making our day as memorable as it was!
From the moment I spoke to Staci on the phone for my first inquiry, I knew she was the DJ for me! What I loved most about her was her personality; she was so nice and outgoing. She is very detail oriented (which also caught my attention, and she knows her stuff!! She's a great speaker and knows how to get the crowd going. Staci went above and beyond my expectations, and with her professional skills, contribute in making my wedding day the best day of my life! I would highly recommend Staci Nichols and Revolution Weddings. :)
Almost every guest that came to our wedding said it was the most fun wedding they have ever been to (this is not an exaggeration at all but is what everyone has told us), and we owe a lot of that to Revolution Weddings. Everything was well-organized and went very smoothly and we could not have been happier. DJ Staci got the party going and kept it going with great song selections and Mikaela, who was in charge of the day-of coordination, went above and beyond to make our day run smoothly and efficiently without feeling robotic or over-coordinated. They were both super easy to work with, responsive, and listened to what we wanted and also offered great suggestions when we needed some help. Even the minor hitches that you can't plan for (every wedding has them and we expected to have a few) were handled very smoothly and it help us have a stress-free and fun day. It truly was the best day of our lives and we could not be happier with how everything turned out.
I used Rev Wedding for my DJ, Photography and Videography services. My wedding was out in the middle of no-where far from their home land and they traveled with grace! Staci was so very helpful and organized, all of her suggestions you could tell came from a true place of "been there and seen it happen!!!". Abby the Photographer was amazing! She was cute as a button and worked so well with my large family filled with men and children that didn't want to stand there and take pictures! She also captured some very precious moments during the reception that I didn't even know I wanted until after I saw them captured on film. All of the girls new each other very well and have been working together for a while which made for very organized and well flowing day. I would recommend Rev wedding for all your wedding needs, they are fantastic!
As the father of the bride, I contemplated my toast to the newlyweds for a couple of months. I had heard a song that reminded me of my daughter and her new husband. I talked to Staci, the DJ, about my desire to play part of the song during my toast. She is very open to ideas like that and played my segment exactly as I requested it. That song segment tied in beautifully with the rest of the toast. The toast went off beautifully thanks in part to Staci's willingness to help make it special. Thank you, Staci.
Staci worked hard to make sure our day was a unique experience for my husband and I as well as our guests. Although I found the "homework" a little daunting at first, I was thrilled when I saw how everything came together. All of the personalized touches really made our reception a night to remember.
DJ Staci was the DJ for our wedding on 10-04-14. My wife met her at a bridal show and when she came home she told me how impressed she was with DJ Staci's equipment, experience, and uniqueness to her services. I trusted my wife's opinion and instincts about DJ Staci but did not meet her personally until our first meeting with her to go over schedules, layout of the dance floor, personal touches to the music, songs, etc. She was above and beyond what my wife told be about. She was personable, understanding, takes her job very seriously, and is not afraid to speak her mind and use her experience to let you know why or why not something that you are doing could hinder some part of the party. She was willing to meet whenever we wanted, she communicated and stayed in touch with us about upcoming dates and deadlines, an was overall very helpful with every aspect of the wedding process (we had no idea what we were doing so you can understand why it was so helpful). On the day of the wedding, she was on time, prepared, and ready to take on the night. She brought a backdrop that matched our theme, her lights made our dance floor look like a "clubby scene" and played great music that reached out to all the ages of people that attended our wedding. She was like our sidekick all night- asking up if we were ok with this or that, and would assure us that things were going well. She really kept her eye on the flow of the party and dance floor. DJ Staci is very knowledgeable and will rock your wedding!!! She is everything you wish for in a DJ and I highly recommend her.
My husband and I are very lucky to have found the BEST wedding DJ, officiator, and coordinator with DJ Staci. Words cannot describe the impact she had on our special day, and it wouldn't have been the same without her. She is extremely organized, personable, fun, down-to-earth, and knowledgeable. Everyone at the wedding kept coming up to us asking who she was, and how her ceremony was so emotional, funny, and that she really took the time to capture us as a couple. We now recommend Staci to everyone we know, and she will always have a special place in our heart for making our wedding day such a magical moment. Thank you Staci, you ROCK!
Staci Nicolas served as Minister and Disc Jockey at our daughters wedding at the lovely Los Penasquitos Ranch House in San Diego. Her organizational, ministerial and personal skills are superb. We in particular liked the way that she provided a consistent momentum and excitement to the wedding's structure. Staci is friendly, professional and went beyond our expectations. We highly recommend her as your minister and/or dj.
And the mother of the bride adds: With Staci taking care of so many details I did not have to worry about the logistics of 'Wedding Day', Staci had it under control. I would recommend the bride to be to
"Go With the Girl!"

I was so happy we hired DJ Staci to be our minister & DJ for our wedding on 10-24-2014, and to have her do both really made things easier! For someone who hasn't even been to many weddings or ever planned a big event, she was very helpful answering any questions we had. She prepared a lot in advance before the wedding making sure she new exactly what type of music we wanted and exactly what would be said during the ceremony. We absolutely loved what she came up with for our ceremony, she is a very good writer! We had a day time wedding (and it was hot!) but she got quite a lot of people dancing which was awesome! She is very organized and had some great ideas to add to the big day that we would have never thought of. She is very professional and definitely knows her stuff!
I met DJ Staci at a bridal show. During our first communication with each other, I got the feeling that she was confident, loves her job, and will go above and beyond to make your wedding the best it could be. After we hired her, she was even better than we imagined. She kept in contact throughout the whole process, was detail-oriented, confident, had great ideas, and really caring. She was flexible, understanding, and was able to grasp our vision of the party that we wanted for the reception part of the wedding.It was obvious that she put hours of work into our schedule and outline of the night. My husband and I created voice-overs (talked about why were were each others best friend) and DJ Staci played them in the beginning and end of our first song. We have pictures of tears rolling down guests face during this time because of the artistic way she placed the voice-overs within the song. She played music that EVERYONE enjoyed, had lights that made the atmosphere feel like a dream, and put on the best MC production possible. Our guests talked about music and the mood/tone of our reception for weeks after our wedding and I attribute that to DJ Staci's talents and performance at our wedding. DJ Staci was also our officient. She wrote a wonderful speech and got our feedback about vows that we wanted and didn't want to include in our ceremony. Our guests were amazed that she was able to be proficient at both the officiant position and Dj position. It was basically a one-man show for our whole wedding! I couldn't recommend a better DJ for your wedding! She made our dream come to life and we will never forget the party/atmosphere that she created for us on our big day! She is an excellent choice for your DREAM WEDDING! THANK YOU STACI!!
DJ Staci was seriously amazing! She helped hold me together through out the whole process! She helped with my timeline, and gave her opinions (which I liked because I didnt know anything about weddings). She was so easy to get along with and talk to but also professional! She talked to all my bridesmaids and groomsman and learned their names (which I think is important, they are treated special too, because they are! :) She had fun with us but also kept to what I wanted. She checked in with me during the wedding to see how things were going or let me know if she was going to change something. I had a bad experience with my photographer and she made me feel a lot better about it and made me enjoy my time a lot more! I'm so grateful for everything she contributed to my wedding (with a sprained foot nonetheless) xox Thanks Staci!
Words are a little hard to describe how incredible Staci and her R3volution Weddings crew is. From the initial phone conversation, to all the planning, to the wedding night, to the dozens of emails after the wedding, Staci and her team are hands down the most professional, intelligent and detail oriented group I've ever had the pleasure to work with. And not only did we notice it, but our 100s of guests at our wedding did too. Everyone kept coming up to us letting us know how incredible she was and how it was the best wedding they'd ever been to -- that is because Staci and her team had a hand in everything.
Staci and Co. performed our DJ, Officiant (including custom ceremony creation), Day of Coordination, and pre-planning services, in addition to becoming a genuine friend. She was there for us every moment of the planning stage, and now still is after the "I dos" have been said.
Not only did Staci take the time to get to know us, but she used that information to create an incredible setlist that our guests enjoyed immensely -- the dancing didn't stop all night. Her pre-wedding interview was in depth, and key to creating the most beautiful custom ceremony that made our guests cry, laugh, and applaud. We also had a meeting with Cindy, our Day-of-Coordinator, who ensured that everything went off without a hitch -- I can't stress enough how amazing it was to have her as our DOC and how she made it so that we literally had zero stress the day-of.
Additionally, everyone at RevWed's follow-up is top-notch. They are all quick to reply to emails, makes themselves always available, and has a variety of contact methods.
If you're looking for the SoCal Wedding vendor of your dreams, don't miss out on the team from R3volution Weddings. I'm so thankful to have found them.
We had DJ Staci for our June 21 wedding and I don't think the day would have been so amazing without her! She was on top of EVERYTHING and kept us on task for things such as the cake cutting or bouquet toss, which we would have completely forgot about if it weren't for her! She also was very observant and moved up cake cutting time because people were starting to take off early. I could not imagine having anyone else doing all of these things so flawlessly!
