About Jose The DJ Events

Jose The DJ Events

DJ and Owner

Great weddings are not built from a copy & paste playlist. They’re built around you, your guests, and the moments everyone remembers. Jose The DJ Events provides wedding DJ and MC services for ceremonies, cocktail hours, and receptions, with personalized music planning, an online planning portal, professional sound, dance floor lighting, and clear announcements. Uplighting and a digital photo booth are available. Based in Norfolk, VA, I’ve DJed weddings since 2010 across Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Portsmouth, Suffolk, Williamsburg, and all of Hampton Roads. I also travel (travel fees and accommodations may apply). Fully insured, with clear pricing upfront.

When you book Jose The DJ Events, you get me. No sales team, no substitute DJ. The person you plan with is the same person behind the DJ booth. I take a limited number of weddings each year so every couple gets my full attention. I learn your vision, pronounce every name correctly, build your timeline with you, and coordinate with your venue and vendors. Once the party starts, I read the room and keep guests of all ages dancing. I reply to every inquiry within 24 hours, and you’ll have direct access to me from planning through the last dance.

    WOW, Jose the DJ crushed it!

    Jose the DJ crushed it! The mixes were on point, the transitions were smooth, and the vibe was electric from start to finish. He knew exactly how to keep the crowd moving and smiling all night long. On top of that, he’s one of the friendliest, most genuine DJs around — everyone felt right at home. If you want your party to be unforgettable, book Jose. You won’t regret it!

    Jose was the most amazing DJ for my husband’s and my wedding! He worked closely with us through the process and making sure all of our details were perfect! On the day of he got there early and made sure everything went smoothly and adjusted quickly to last minute changes. With our wedding being a dry wedding I was worried people wouldn’t dance but Jose did a great job getting us on the dance floor. Working with Jose was easy and a lot of fun, we felt like friends instead of clients because of the personal relationship he values with his clients! We highly recommend Jose!

    Thank you so much, Virginia, for your kind words and for trusting me to be part of such an important day! It was truly a pleasure working with both of you throughout the planning process and celebrating alongside your family and friends on your wedding day. I'm so glad I could help bring your vision to life, keep everything running smoothly, and make sure the dance floor stayed full—even at a dry wedding! Hearing that you felt more like friends than clients means the world to me, as building genuine relationships with my couples is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do. Thank you again for allowing me to be part of your wedding day. I wish you and your husband a lifetime of love, happiness, and unforgettable memories together! — Jose Jose The DJ Events 🎶💍

    Jose was GREAT! He made our experience smooth and easy. Our wedding music was great and we got many compliments all because of Jose. I have been recommending him to all of my friends who are soon to be married. Jose also has the lowest DJ prices I have seen in the Hampton Roads Area!

    If you want a PACKED dance floor all night — book Jose immediately! He DJ’d two of my daughters’ weddings and my vow renewal, and each event was unforgettable. The transitions were smooth, the music selection was on point, and he knew exactly how to keep guests of all ages dancing. Professional, punctual, easy to work with, and just genuinely a great person. After three major family events, we wouldn’t trust anyone else! Highly, highly recommend!

    Jose The DJ Events•Apr 28, 2026

    Thank you so much, Tori! It truly means a lot to have been your wedding DJ for such special family moments over the years. Being part of multiple weddings and your vow renewal here in Hampton Roads is something I’ll always appreciate. I’m glad the dance floor stayed packed and the music connected with every guest—it’s always the goal! Thank you again for your continued trust!


Preferred vendors of Jose The DJ Events


Jose The DJ Events is owner operated, so you work directly with me throughout the entire planning process and on your wedding day. I take time to understand your vision, organize the important details, prepare your music, pronounce names correctly, and create a celebration that feels personal rather than copied from another wedding. One DJ. One point of contact. One seamless experience. When you book Jose The DJ Events, you get Jose. If I am unavailable for your date, I will gladly refer you to another trusted DJ.
Yes. Your music preferences are an important part of the planning process. You will have access to an online planning portal where you can build your request list, identify the songs you definitely want played and list any songs you do not want played. I also discuss guest requests with you before the wedding so I know whether you want me to accept them. On the wedding day, I use your preferences as the foundation while reading the room and keeping the celebration moving.
Yes. Ceremony audio and cocktail hour music are included in The Wedding Day Experience and The Immersive Celebration Experience. I can provide separate sound for the ceremony, music for guest arrival and the processional, a wireless microphone for the officiant and music during cocktail hour. The Curated Reception Experience is reception only, but ceremony audio and cocktail hour music may be added when available.
Yes. Jose The DJ Events carries liability insurance and meets the insurance requirements of many venues. If your venue requires a certificate of insurance, please let me know during the planning process so I can provide the necessary documentation before your wedding day.
I generally plan to arrive about two hours before services begin so I have enough time to load in, set up and test the equipment before guests arrive. The exact arrival time may depend on the venue, access instructions and the amount of equipment required. I coordinate these details in advance so the sound and lighting are ready before your celebration begins.
You can choose either one with The Immersive Celebration Experience, and both may be added to another wedding experience when available.
Travel within Hampton Roads and Williamsburg is included in my standard pricing. For events outside that area, travel fees and overnight accommodations may apply depending on the location, distance and event schedule. Any required costs will be explained before you receive a proposal so there are no surprises. Standard setup and breakdown are included in the selected wedding experience.
Your wedding date is officially reserved once the agreement is signed and the retainer is received. Before booking, we’ll go over your plans, confirm availability, and make sure the wedding experience you choose fits what you need. Once you’re booked, you’ll get a welcome email with access to your planning portal and forms so we can start organizing the details.
