Default SoCal DJ Warning - Sunset Entertainment

http://www.sunsetdj.com/

I would recommend not considering these guys.

My friend's MIL had booked a DJ with them a month in advance, paid in full. He eventually met with my friend and her now husband, and they discussed a playlist, all 70's & 80's funk & rock. At this point, they were very happy.

5 days before the wedding they were attempting to contact the DJ, to confirm the time he would be coming to set up his equipment. They called him 3 times with no call back. 2 days before the wedding, my friend's husband finally was able to get this guy on the phone. He claimed to be in New York and at business meetings, that the DJ job is a side job and how could he be expected to answer his phone? He also told my friend's husband that he'd still be coming to the wedding, and what time he was planning to show up.

The NIGHT BEFORE THE WEDDING, he called, said he would not be coming, but their playlist was being faxed to another DJ who was qualified, and everything should be fine. At this point, my friend was really stressed over this whole ordeal, and was just hoping someone would show up.

At the wedding, He played the correct ceremony music, thank God. But for the reception, he played maybe 1 or 2 songs from their list. He was not prepared with the type of music they had asked for, the majority of what he had was hip-hop. At one point Akon "I wanna **** you" Came on, and I, being a bridesmaid had to run over there and make him stop it! Same thing when he decided "Walk it out" would be a good cake cutting song!

I hope people google their company before hiring them, and find this post. We had a great time anyways, but seriously! I was so pissed off for my friend!!!

ETA:
In fact I'll add some key phrases so google will catch it:
"Sunset Entertainment review" "Sunset Entertainment DJ" "Customer review Sunset Entertianment"

Yeah I've been calling her "Mrs. M___" Every day I'm glad this was the only thing that went wrong, but I made up my mind on that day I'd post it all over the internet to get word out to the bridal community
