Charleston Birthday & Private Party DJ

Birthdays are most of the private parties I play, along with the occasional backyard get-together. I bring the sound, the lighting and a playlist built around your people, so you get to be a guest at your own party.

Why People Book Me

Guests in costume singing karaoke at a Charleston party hosted by DJ JC

A private party runs on a different clock than a wedding. There’s no formal timeline to protect, which means the whole job is reading the room: who’s here, how old they are, whether the dance floor wants a push or a breather.

I build the playlist around you, or I work from one your own people have already put together, and a do-not-play list is always honored. Requests are welcome, because the best parties are the ones where guests feel like they have a say.

Past clients have mentioned that I’m punctual and that I keep my word. That’s the part of this I care most about. If I tell you I’ll be there at six, I’m there before six.

What I Bring

Outdoor DJ and karaoke setup with string lights at a Charleston venue

I arrive with professional sound, microphones and lighting, and I handle setup and teardown myself, so there’s nothing for you or your guests to lift. If you’d like me to MC, I’ll do the introductions and keep things moving. If you’d rather I stay in the background and just keep the music right, that works too.

Make It More Than a Playlist

Karaoke is my favorite thing I do, and it works at a house party better than most people expect. If you’d like it as part of the night, I can add it on. I also own a photo booth that sends digital copies straight to your guests’ phones, with backdrops and props included. Ask me about adding either.

Where I Go

I’m based in Summerville, about twenty-five minutes from downtown Charleston, and I work all over the greater Charleston area: Mount Pleasant, North Charleston, James Island, Johns Island, Goose Creek, Kiawah Island and Isle of Palms. I travel often to Hilton Head, Myrtle Beach and Savannah, and I’ll go up to 200 miles. Travel fees apply outside the Charleston area, and I’ll always include them in your quote up front.

What It Costs

$500

Private parties start at $500.

Where it lands from there depends on how long you need me, where the party is, and whether you’re adding karaoke or the photo booth. Travel fees apply outside the Charleston area.

Send me your date and I’ll come back with a straight number. A 50% deposit holds your date.
