REVIEWS
“DJ Darla Bea gave us the party of a lifetime! The whole process was easy, fun and stress free. She was everything we wanted in a vendor. She had great suggestions for the type of music we wanted and how the flow of the night should go. We never had to prompt her or ask for anything she was on it the whole time, thinking ahead and ready to go. She DJ'd the whole event from ceremony to reception and never once a dull moment. We wanted a huge party for our friends and family and that's exactly what she brought. Not only is she extremely professional but very down to earth and someone We could trust right away.” Glenna & Scottie (Santa Ynez Private Ranch)
"You are the absolute BEST. Thanks for rocking the party and keeping everyone going for that extended time. We are so happy we were able to work with you! I know we gave you a long list but you were awesome at reading the crowd and knowing what they wanted to hear. Everyone had a great time!" Julianna & Chris (Moxi Museum)
"Thank YOU! You were the musical cherry on top of our special day Darla!" Stephanie & Ari (Narrative Loft)
“DJ Darla Bea was such the sweetest DJ we could ever ask for! Professional, responsive, even allowed my mom to indulge on a Michael Jackson song. I cannot thank you enough, our guests had the best time because of the playlist you played, a night to remember!” Melly & John (Riviera Mansion)
"Darla was great! She kept everyone dancing all night long and let guests write down song requests during dinner. She provided suggestions for songs for our special moments that we needed help with and even found a special instrumental version of a song for our ceremony. She went above and beyond to make sure our day was special and how we had imagined it. We loved every second of working with her!" Jordan & Erik (Dos Pueblos Orchid Ranch)
“Darla put on our wedding reception for us and killed it! I’ve never seen a room of 100 people hit the dance floor on the very first song as excitedly and quickly as I did that night! To this day, friends keep telling us how much fun they had dancing at our wedding; that there was not a single song they didn’t love! Darla made sure to talk about our vision/personal preferences before the event and integrated them in such a way that synced with the energy to keep the party going ‘til the last song. By the end of the night, my husband and I were on stage leading our attendees in a karaoke-esque performance with everyone singing along at the top of their lungs! Wish it never had to end! We would highly recommend Darla to anyone who wants to make their reception one to remember.” Kacy & Kyle (Rockwood Woman's Club)
