Our coordinator recommended Richard, and we’re so grateful she did because he was absolutely fantastic. From the very beginning, Richard was easy to work with, organized, and genuinely wanted to make sure our wedding reflected us. We had quite a few special requests and specific songs throughout the day, and he made everything happen exactly the way we envisioned. On the wedding day, everything flowed seamlessly. Richard kept the timeline moving, made all of the announcements professionally, and made sure every transition from the ceremony to cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing felt effortless. We never had to think about what came next because he had everything under control. He also did an amazing job reading the room and keeping the energy up throughout the night. The dance floor was full, our guests had an incredible time, and we were able to simply enjoy ourselves knowing everything was being handled. If you’re looking for a DJ who is professional, organized, and truly cares about making your wedding day unforgettable, we couldn’t recommend Richard more. We’re so thankful he was part of our day!

We hired Jayson from All Ears for our wedding in 6/2026, and had a phenomenal experience! Without a doubt, he was the best DJ we could ask for. Jayson was very professional, did a great job emceeing, and was able to read the room so well. He alternated between songs for different age groups, allowing everyone to get up and dance at different times, incorporated our song requests perfectly, but also threw in song surprises that were perfect and kept the energy going for the entire night. Would definitely recommend his services!
Richard is a spectacular DJ. All he wants is for you to feel happy and that your needs are met. He was very laid back and easy to work with and communicate our preferences to. His timing the day of was excellent - he did a great job mc'ing for us, and the music was exactly what we wanted. He also had so many options for us to choose from with his skillset, we felt like we had a lot of options to customize what we wanted. We have heard nothing but good things from our wedding attendees about how great the music was. Dancing on the night of our wedding remains one of the happiest memories of my life, and it's thanks to Richard. 10/10!
Thank you so much Melissa & Shannon, you two were the sweetest!
We hired Richard with All Ears DJ for our 130 guest, May 2026 wedding in Cloverdale, CA and couldn't have been happier with our choice. He brought a great energy and good vibes for the entire day; playing our music for the ceremony, emceeing our reception dinner, and DJ-ing all night long! We had also asked him to emcee a game of "scavenger musical chairs" for us during the reception, which he did mention he had not done before...yet he knocked it out of the park! Guests loved the vibes he brought, and the photobooth and uplights were also a great add. Highly recommend for any wedding or event you may be planning.
Thanks Alexander! Had a blast with ya’ll.
Richard has been phenomenal from day one. He got back to our first inquiry quickly, walked us through the order of events, songs to choose, worked with the inspo playlists we sent him for all aspects of our day, and offers amazing extras like a vinyl hour, which we enthusiastically went with. Day of our wedding, he over-delivered. He made confident announcements, read the room for music vibes, provided amazing sound and mics for the ceremony, and provided the best dance floor sets. He is a complete delight and honor to work with. We are so grateful that he was available for our day and recommend him 10/10 times to anyone asking.
Thanks ya’ll this was a total blast!
Richard was our DJ for our wedding. We were very pleased with the services provided. Richard offers a vinyl mixer set which we included on our special day. This was a unique way to personalize our day with some of our favorite vinyls. Richard was professional, kind, and very easy to work with. We highly recommend his services for those needing a DJ, vinyl mixer, or acoustic set.
Thank you Tyler and Téa, had so much fun and glad you dug the vinyl cocktail hour!
We worked with Richard at All Ears DJ for a unique wedding reception and are so glad we did! Richard was professional and communicative throughout, working with us to bring our vision to life for an acoustic cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. He did a wonderful job setting the tone for our celebration and, most importantly, getting the party going! We strongly recommend him to others.
Thanks Jennifer, so glad I could be a part of your party and thanks for letting me sing and play guitar as well.
Richard was the beyond the greatest possible DJ. He did a wonderful job as an MC, as well as blending in my hard dance playlist later in the night, while playing his own great music throughout the night for our Napa wedding. Couldn’t have been happier with the whole process, his decorations and his taste. Thank you so much🙏
Thank you Tommy I had a blast with y’all and wish you all the best!
Richard was outstanding. He arrived early, helped with setup, and made the entire night seamless. The music was exactly what we were hoping for and he kept the energy high from start to finish. He handled all MC duties flawlessly and went above and beyond on every request. An absolute blast to work with. We would recommend him without hesitation and will be booking him for future events.
Thanks Sean, I had a blast being your DJ and hope to rock with ya'll again!
We had Richard for our wedding last month and he was amazing! We even had him play a personal collection of vinyl during cocktail hour which was a huge hit and highlight of the entire night - minus the ceremony, of course. I look forward to having Richard at my next event!!
Thanks Chris, glad you dug the vinyl and I hope I get to work another event with you!
