Darion Bonnet

Name: Darion Bonnet (Dj Darion)
Nickname: Big D
Date of Birth: 8/27/1983
Place of Birth: Richmond VA
Years DJing: 11+ Years

Other experience: Acting Major, Hospitality Experience, Retail Store Manager.

Favorite DJ Moment: I was DJing at a club a couple years ago as the headlines DJ and it was amazing-lights everywhere and over 15,000 watts of power in the speakers.  I put on a track that had the 2,000+ crowd dancing and chanting my name.


Favorite Song:
As a DJ, there is no way to just have one-one of my favorites to play at most events is Sir Mix A lot – “Baby got Back”.

Favorite Type Event to DJ: Weddings have an amazing feeling and I love being part of something so memorable. To be honest, I love to be anywhere where I can crank up the music!

Activities/things you enjoy outside of Djing: I love the outdoors: playing baseball, football, tennis, skiing, surfing, and mountain biking. I really enjoy a walk on Carmel Beach and working at my second job at Lala Grill.

Talents: I love photography and I enjoy acting in front of a camera. My voice has to be one of my strong points and I use it to my advantage every day. Kickboxing is also a perfect way for me to stay in shape for those extra long events.

Tesimonials:

I hope that DNA received the thank you note that I mailed about Darion. The wedding was perfect and Darion was very professional. He was personable (we knew he would be), prompt, your equipment worked perfectly and most of all the kids and all the guests danced until they were exhausted (at least us older ones were).

There were 2 memorable moments for me, my dad asked Darion to play my mom and dad’s special song for them and they danced together while their kids and grandkids held back tears, and he ended the evening with the “I’ve Had the Time of My Life” song, and showcased Jaime and Matt dancing in the middle of all the guests. It was perfect!!! My husband got great shots of everyone surrounding the newly married couple. We know that we made the right choice with your company and Darion as our D.J.

Thanks for a job well done,

Darion of DNA Entertainment DJ’d our recent wedding and was excellent. He was extremely energetic and got our party started, but wasn’t pushy and accommodated things like when one of our family members wanted to take the mic and sing Neil Diamond :)

We and our guests had a great time during the reception and Darion was a big part of that.

Thank you so much for setting us up with Darion. He was AMAZING!!! By far the best vendor for our entire event! The music he played was absolutely perfect for our crowd…he didn’t miss a beat. His MCing abilities were impeccable. Honestly, I can’t say enough good things about him.

Thank you so much!!!!

We are so happy with our wedding day!!

Darion did a great job for us! We liked the way that he moved things along at a comfortable pace, double checked for name pronunciation, cut music correctly, stuck to the play list and kept us boogying down the whole night!!! We will be happy to call again and to refer friends and family to DNA DJs.

Thank you for helping to make our wedding day so special!

We could not have been happier with Darion. He was absolutely professional and amazing! We had over 300 guests and it seems like just about all of them have told me how great our DJ was!

He really read the crowd well and kept everyone going. We didn’t do a very good job getting him the schedule and everything, nothing went as planned, but he really pulled everything together perfectly and I am SO happy we hired him.

Thank you so much for helping make our special day run so smoothly…Darion did a fabulous job!

Darion was amazing!!

He not only played the music we wanted, but he ran the whole event perfectly. He would even check in with us throughout the night to make sure we wanted to stick with the pre-planned time line and to give us a heads up on what was next. I really appreciated this. For example, I was able to ask for an extra 5 min. before the bouquet toss to make sure my Mom was in the room. He really made the night perfect. People are still talking about the last dance at our wedding. We picked the song, “Piano Man” by Billy Joel, and Darion had us dance in the middle with all the guest in a circle around us. We felt, and have been told my numerous wedding guests, it was the best wedding moment ever seen. It was magical and we can’t thank you enough.

Sincerely,
