The team

Our event
DJs.

A small, hand-picked crew with 50+ years on the decks between us. Different people, same standard: well-presented, well-prepared, easy to work with.

How it works

One enquiry,
the right DJ.

You don't pick a DJ off a roster, and you won't get stuck with whoever's free. When you book us, we match you with the DJ on the team whose style and experience fits your event best, your date, your vibe, your guest list.

If there's someone specific you want, you can request them. Otherwise, we'll suggest. Either way, every DJ on this page runs the same gear, the same prep, the same standard.

On the night, his job is simple: read the room, build the energy, keep the dancefloor full. Doesn't matter if it's a 90-person wedding at Red Barn or a 400-person school ball, Chris brings the same level of care to all of it.

Chris from My Event DJ was very chill to deal with when we booked a DJ for our wedding reception on 11/4/26. So sorry I have forgotten the name of the lovely guy who DJ'd for us on the day, but he turned up on time, was already set up, did everything perfectly and had a really lovely bubbly personality! Thanks so much for helping make our wedding reception a stress free and fun night :D

Bloody awesome DJ company! We had the pleasure of having Chris as our DJ and he's absolutely amazing! We had made our song/playlist requests through a webpage that was easy to use and even though the rain meant some last minute change in locations, Chris wasn't phased and seamlessly carried on. The guests made so many comments about the DJ about how he read the room so well, kept vibes high and chose great songs (hubby and I agree!). We also got the photo booth which was a TOTAL hit! Being able to have print outs to put on the fridge and then being sent a link where we could download the digital copies was so handy! Would absolutely recommend the team at MyEventDJ! Thanks for helping to make our day magical, Chris!

We had Chris for our wedding and he was amazing from start to finish. He helped us in the planning process and on the day his attention to detail made sure the whole day was perfect! The Photo Booth was a great addition and well worth it! I cannot recommend Chris enough! Thank you so much!

Incredible! We used Chris at our wedding a month ago - we had him for the whole shebang. From ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and through to the dance floor Chris was incredible. He was inconspicuous, but the music and timing was perfect. He fitted seamlessly into our day. The app and communication beforehand made things super easy and uncomplicated. AND THEN he threw down absolute banger after banger on the dance floor later on. We cannot thank you enough for helping to make our wedding such an absolute hit.

We used my Event DJ, for our wedding in January and they were absolutely amazing. Their systems for song selection was simply to use, their communication was also out standing. We also used the package which included the photo both and this went down even better than we hoped, the photos and set up was amazing and all our guest thought it was one of the best photo booths they have used. Honestly we could not recommend these guys enough!. Thanks heaps for making our event! Marie & John

110% would recommend! A big contributor to making our wedding one to remember. We had lots of comments on how good the music was from guest. Was great at reading the crowd and vibes throughout the day/night.

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our wedding! Chris was on time, professional, and everything ran perfectly from start to finish. He was incredibly patient throughout the whole process and a huge help during the planning stages. He also set up the photobooth, which our guests absolutely loved it was such a hit all night! The whole service was amazing value for money. We’re so grateful for everything he did to make our day so special. Highly recommend!

Chris you are bloody epic! We had the best night with you, you listen to the crowd and know your music so well. Have had so many great parties with you but this one tops the rest! Will now be using you for every party ever lol thanks man!
