San Jose, the South Bay and the Peninsula
The phone number on this site is a 408, and the South Bay is the area with the most venues on my played list. That covers the whole valley: Los Gatos, Saratoga and Campbell to the west, Menlo Park and the Peninsula up the 280, and the country clubs and ranch venues out towards Evergreen and Silver Creek. Travel anywhere in it is already inside the quote.
The rooms here are a mix. The Ranch at Silver Creek and Silver Creek Valley Country Club are big open spaces that fill with sound easily and need it kept under control for the older guests at dinner. Villa Ragusa in Campbell is a proper ballroom with a proper dance floor. The Rosewood in Menlo Park, Sharon Heights and Los Altos Country Club are the Peninsula end of things, with terraces for the ceremony and a ballroom to move into after. Saratoga Country Club sits up in the hills. Faz in Sunnyvale is where a lot of Persian families in the valley have already been to somebody else's wedding, which is its own kind of pressure. I have worked all of them.
What a Persian wedding in San Jose needs from its DJ is the same everywhere: the sofreh aghd and the knife dance run in Farsi for the family, every announcement repeated in English for everyone else, and a dance floor that opens on the first Persian track and does not empty when the music moves to English, Spanish or whatever else the two families brought with them. The planning happens in the music app months before, so nothing about your night is guessed at on the night.
Send your date and your venue and you will get a straight answer on availability, and a quote after that. A date is only yours once the agreement is signed, and South Bay Saturdays go early, so it is worth asking before the rest of your planning is settled.

DJ Mian was the DJ for our Persian-American wedding, and he did a fantastic job! From our first meeting, we knew we were in good hands! DJ Mian is very professional, organized, experienced, and responsive.
We knew we could trust his music selections after he explained how he integrates our preferences with the "vibe" of the crowd and dance floor to keep the crowd going all night!
He is truly skilled and we received so many compliments all night and after the wedding on how "lit" our dance floor was, and how it felt like we were at a "Vegas club!" Needless to say, we highly recommend DJ Mian for any event!!
