“thank you so much, Frank!! I was just going to email you! You and your crew were amazing!!! We will definitely use Mastermind DJ in the future and will recommend you to our friends. You have been so professional and were on top of every detail!! Again, thank you!! Happy Halloween!” – Jen
“The team was wonderful! They were attentive to the crowd and played excellent music throughout the evening at the appropriate time. Even got my coworkers to dance (and they weren’t even that drunk!). Happy with Mastermind’s service, will use him again.” – Cynthia
“Mastermind DJ Entertainment and Event Management Services recently helped us out with our wedding last week. They were completely self sufficient and were probably the only thing that day that required no input from myself or my new spouse. They set up, and broke down their equipment with no problems arriving early to the event to ensure everything functioned correctly. We gave a few genres of music that we enjoyed and a playlist was created that catered to us which we were able to see ahead of time. They were helpful, professional and very easy to work with. If we have another party or gathering in the future we will definitely be asking for their help again. Thanks again for all of your help” – Anthony
“DJ Oneseven did an amazing job at my brother in law’s wedding. I never realized how important a good DJ is till I went to another wedding where that DJ had horrible transitions. I would highly recommend this DJ who listens to the customers musical preferences.” – Liz

wedding plan list – Mastermind DJs
Mastermind DJs is a Bay Area local DJ service specializing in weddings of any size. Our expert DJs will rock your crowd on the dance floor and entertain your guests all night. To find out about our availability call request a quote at Mastermind DJs – book us!
If you’ve never thrown a party, this post is for you. The more planning you do ahead of time, the less stressful your party will be before and during the party. So allow us to give you some party tips to rock your house.
Start planning early, think of a theme or work on around the holiday that you’re celebrating. Planning early will allow you to think of ideas for that football party or Halloween party you’ve been thinking of throwing.
What’s on the menu? Think quantity as to how much food you’ll need, based on how many guests your having. Unless, of course you’re throwing a potluck party. Check back on the theme and see if the them can inspire the food. For example, a Cinco de Mayo party, you know you’ll need to have Mexican food. If you have a big budget party, hire a catering service.
The bar is open. Check out Bev and Mo and or talk to the guys/gals there. They are very helpful at giving you ideas for drinks within any budget. Again, let the theme inspire ideas for the drinks. If the budget allows, hire a mobile bar service.
The dance tunes. You might have your iPod do the music entertainment or you might hire a DJ, whichever the case, think of a playlist for your party. You might also ask your friends and family for suggestions to make it more fun.
Have fun!
