Lake DJ

Derek Tarpey of Lake DJ is awesome! He has such a great personality to work with and is very open to any type of genre you choose for your wedding. Also, his Emulator is excellent and adds that cool special touch to your Wedding day. Your guest will be will love it and have a great time. The sound quality of the music was excellent and Derek is awesome at MC'ing the evening and keeping the flow going. We really appreciate all his assistance on our Wedding Day and will definately have great memories to come.

Derek Tarpey was a great DJ and we couldn't have asked for anything better! He was very professional, organized, prepared, responsive, and a nice guy. He played the songs we asked for and his song choices otherwise were perfect. He even made us a few CDs with our wedding "soundtrack" which we have nostalgically listened to. Your DJ can really make or break your reception (and ceremony), and Derek did not disappoint. His personality and sense of humor is perfect for any crowd. He also knew our venue well (Edgewood) and knew our vendors as well. He worked with all staff/vendors to ensure everything flowed smoothly and exactly as we had asked. Our first dance song was cut off before the end, so be sure if you want a song played in its entirety that you specify this. He uses his professional judgment and reads the crowd to determine how long a song should play (and is usually spot-on). Thanks, Derek, for the most perfect wedding!!

Derek was the best decision I made. He was so personable, stuck to my playlists and made sure everything went smoothly the day of. Don't think twice about a DJ he is the best Tahoe has to offer!

Derek Tarpey was Awesome!! He knew what to do and when better than we did.....he also knew what to play and when. He got all of our guests out of their chairs and had them on the dance floor. He also help coordinate our reception, which was a HUGE help to us. We would recommend his services to anyone in need of a DJ in the Lake Tahoe area.

Derek was great. And his accent was cute! He was very helpful throughout planning, even though I changed my songs several times. He really was the life of the party. He was basically the master of ceremonies the whole time, telling me when to enter, when to cut cake, and when to do the garter, bouquet toss. He was much more than I expected. He really made the wedding a lot of fun.

Derek was great. He kept everyone well informed as to what was going on next, where to be, etc. He worked well with our photographer to make sure he was able to capture everything. Did a great job of playing songs we wanted and not playing anything off our do not play list. Would def. book him again for another event!
