Bonnie Wurzell and A.J. Cole Wedding

Bonnie Wurzell and A.J. Cole Wedding

“We did our initial consult with Jamie. My wife is passionate about music and had already begun compiling an enormous library of songs she wanted to hear/dance to. He was able to sit with us, and directed the questions to make certain he captured the entirety of her vision while also making me feel heard. Unfortunately (for him, fortunately for us!), he was booked for the date of our wedding. With other vendors this would be a challenge, but not with these professionals! Jamie handed over his detailed notes to Jackie, who called us to make sure we were ok with the change and who was clearly a professional who had prepared for our wedding. The ceremony: They supplied the equipment, and we had no mic issues. The ceremony went perfectly with the right music at the right times etc. No complaints there. The reception: Jackie is an absolute rockstar! She played every song we wanted to hear, avoided the ones we didnt (even when guests made ... loud... requests), and danced along with the music. She knew how to work the room, and got our older family members up and dancing early before gradually transitioning to more modern/upbeat dance songs by the end of the night. She was so much fun and kept the dance floor going from 9 to 1AM! She really went above and beyond for us. We could not be more pleased. Several guests approached me during the evening to compliment our DJ choice and to ask how we found her. What better compliment can one have? You work with a lot of vendors to pull off a wedding. Jamie and Jackie are consummate professionals, and I suspect that no matter who you work with here you'll be in good hands! I'd give them 6 stars if I could.” - A.J. Cole

“Jamie did a great job with our wedding. We had some special hardware needs because of our actual ceremony being on top of a hill. Jamie got the hardware that we needed and hooked us up. The rest of the party was completely on point -- the dinner was romantic and chill, the dance party was high-energy and got people moving. He spends a lot of time up front tailoring the set list to your specific tastes and needs. And the comments we got from guests were that the songs played fit exactly our style, with a lot of nuance. It was great!” - Mike Michon

“James DJ'd at my wedding 2 weeks ago and he completely blew away both me and my wife's expectations. From the first phone call I had with him, he was extremely enthusiastic and I knew we were in good hands. We simply gave him a list of some of our favorite songs and he managed to break them up perfectly into a groovy afrobeat cocktail hour and 70's inspired main set that had everyone on the dance floor. Couldn't recommend him enough.” - Cyrus Blankinship

”James was amazing! My husband talked to him on the phone when we were on the hunt for a DJ and called me up afterwards to tell me that he didn’t want to talk to any other ones, James was the one. He is super outgoing and attentive and really just seems like he loves his job. He played everything we wanted the night of our wedding and at some point during the night a friend said "how do I get this guys playlist?!" I would highly recommend to any friend or family member! “ - Katie Barsanti

“The best wedding DJ ever! (And I’ve been to a lot of weddings). James did such an awesome job with our wedding, we were being complimented nonstop about how good the music was and how well he was reading the dance floor (and keeping people dancing!) He listened to our requests and came up with lots of ideas that fit our more unique theme of a British wedding and my very eclectic music tastes. We have been to a lot of weddings recently, and ours was definitely the only one that kept people dancing until closing. He also did a great job with the music before and after the ceremony, plus acting as an emcee whenever we needed. I should also add, our was a destination wedding being planned from Denver, so we never met in person and it still went perfect. He was super nice and professional, can’t recommend him enough!” - Lauren Cross

”Everything we wanted and more. Jamie played my wedding and was everything we wanted and more. We planned the wedding remotely and had to put a ton of faith in our vendors. Jamie did not disappoint. His level of communication leading up to the day was just enough that we felt confident, but not too much to stress us out. We had a number of songs that could not be sourced on typical streaming services and Jamie found a way to get high-quality versions of these songs ready to go. His music kept the event running smoothly and his planning / time management with his music was spot on. His mix kept the dance floor going the entire night. His read of the crowd and of us was impeccable. This is the DJ you want for your special day, we love Jamie!” - Evan Jones

“We had the pleasure of working with Jackie Sugarlumps for our wedding and were extremely pleased. Jackie met with us more than once to get to know us and guide us through not just the music but also the flow of the whole evening. What we wound up with was a great set list of music and a fun party for everyone - and she made it all very easy for us. Thank you, Jackie!” - Dan Parrella

“Jamie is THE BEST!! We couldn't be happier with selecting him as our wedding DJ. The entire experience of working with him was great. He spent lots of time familiarizing himself with the type of music and vibe we were looking for, and the evening was absolute perfection. I also appreciated his ability to cover everything from the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and DANCE PARTY! His collection is diverse (we had everything from Willie Nelson to E40) and he was totally committed to making our vision happen. It also helps he is a totally cool person, accessible and communicative.” - Yoyo Chan

”Jamie was the perfect DJ for our wedding. He has a vast knowledge of music and really cared about the feeling we wanted to present through music. He met with us before the wedding to get an idea of what we wanted and what our guests would like to hear. He delivered above and beyond our expectations, played music that we loved and his timing and professionalism were top notch. Jamie even worked to customize his system to work in our unique venue. Most importantly, Jamie is professional, he cares, and knows what he is doing, which meant he worked independently and didn't take time out of our busy day. The end result was everything we could have hoped for.” - Kyle Destiche

“DJ Jackie Sugarlumps was FANTASTIC: she played terrific music, adapted to the crowd, handled a tricky three-location wedding day while making it all look easy…and we got a ton of compliments on our music afterwards from all our guests. Awesome.

It’s obviously a bit nerve-wracking picking a DJ for your wedding — this isn’t something most people do very often! — but Jackie made it easy. From sitting down with us to discuss musical styles — she coaxed good stuff out of us, despite us not exactly being music nerds! — to coming up and visiting our (far-away!) venue weeks ahead of time to get the lay of the land, to picking up on exactly the right kind of music for us and our crowd, it all was easy and felt great.

By the time the big day came, we were feeling really confident about things…and they went off without a hitch. The ceremony was beautiful and the music perfect, her MCing was great at getting our guests to where they needed to go (and juggling multiple speeches), the reception felt perfect, and our dance-party-in-a-barn was a total blast. We were both really impressed and incredibly happy with the results. I’d highly recommend her to anybody.” - Andrew Geweke

"After a year of planning, searching for the perfect vendors, location, the perfect suit and perfect dress, the perfect food getting ready for the perfect night... after everything was said and done, two things are said to us about our wedding. People say it was an amazing party,and that we had the best DJ. I'm not making this shit up. Not just our friends either, my Mom. My mom, who listens to Pitbull (Im not kidding) loved the music. Here's what makes Jamie the best DJ ever. He cares. He simply cares about you, your big day, the job he's doing, everything. It was important to my wife and I that we found someone who got us, our style, our music, etc. Jamie was the perfect guy for the job and we wouldn't have had it any other way. Besides, he's cool as all hell and a pleasure to work with. Also, he has impeccable taste and has a crazy vinyl collection to back it up. YAY for Jamie, the best DJ a couple could ask for. Just reach out to him, meet up with him, talk music, you won't regret it." - Scott Smith

"The only enjoyable part of wedding planning for me was finding Jamie and talking music. My husband and I were thrilled to find a vinyl DJ who understood us and our style of music. Jamie was pleasure to work with and cool guy to get to know. Our guests LOVED the music and complemented us on his skills. I highly recommend Jamie's services and wish we could do it all over again!" - Sandy Knoblach

"James DJ'd our wedding reception at the de Young Museum this Summer and it could not have been more perfect. James took the time to really get to know us and our tastes in music (we are both huge music fans) and used that to tailor a set list that both met our expectations but also surprised us and packed a lot of unexpected joy. The dance floor was smoking. Throughout the entire experience James was personable, organized and enthusiastic. He made himself a trusted partner in our wedding plans. Press "play" for James and his deep record collection and knowledge of music. A wonderful fellow." - Craig Daniel

"If you’re looking for a top-notch wedding DJ, look no further: Jamie is capital-A awesome. For years, Jamie hosted Debaser (excellent 90s dance party), and it was through Debaser that I got to know Jamie and his work. When my now-husband and I started planning our wedding, we aligned on what we were looking for in a DJ — someone with impeccable (and broad) musical taste; someone with the emotional IQ to cater to not just the bride/groom’s preferences, but also to honor both extended families’ wishes; and someone who can bring a rockin’ dance party. Jamie exemplifies all of these qualities. He spent several hours with us discussing the sort of mood we wanted to create and how we wanted our reception to evolve; he then translated this vision into a playlist that kept our guests on the dance floor all night (and into the morning). What’s more, he was extremely professional, handling all the tiny details that no bride or groom wants to deal with. You’d be hard pressed to find a better, more intuitive DJ than Jamie. " - Kate Garklavs

"Jamie kicked ass at our wedding ceremony and reception. We'd both known him for years through Debaser and other parties he'd DJ in the Mission, so when we decided we wanted someone for our wedding that'd get our guests to dance their faces off, we knew who to go to. Jamie was amazing to work with. We talked through the general them we were hoping for, he worked with us to come up with our lists of must haves, as well as some secret requests, and was just generally super attentive and responsive. The party, of course, was amazing! Jamie is incredibly good at reading the energy of a room and adapting his set to both feed on and feed that energy. We didn't have an emcee or a day-of planner or anything like that, and Jamie was able to direct the flow of the night using the music he was playing. And yes, we all danced our damn faces off!" - Micah Saul
