Mia and Sam with DJ Justin Kanoya, after a fun, sweaty dance party at their Rancho Guejito wedding.
On June 28, 2025, Mia and Sam hosted an unforgettable San Diego area wedding at the stunning Rancho Guejito Vinyeard in Escondido. Located in North County San Diego, Rancho Guejito offers sweeping vineyard views and majestic mountain backdrops—making it a top choice for couples searching for a picturesque San Diego wedding venue.
Their ceremony took place on the venue’s Terrace, which overlooks the vineyards and the rolling San Pasqual Valley hills. The ceremony soundtrack featured “A Thousand Years” by Christina Perri for the wedding party entrance, “River Flows In You” by Yiruma for Mia’s walk down the aisle, and “Lucky” by Jason Mraz for the joyful recessional.
With over 100 guests in attendance, the energy continued into the reception with spotlight dances that included “3 Rounds and a Sound” by Blind Pilot for their first dance, and “Landslide” by The Chicks for the father-daughter moment.
As their San Diego wedding DJ, I curated a high-energy playlist that kept guests on the dance floor all night. From timeless classics like Al Green’s “Let’s Stay Together” to throwback party hits from Britney Spears, Shania Twain, and Ciara, to modern bangers from Pitbull, Taylor Swift, and Avicii, the dance set was a non-stop celebration. Highlights included “Mr. Brightside”, “Get Low”, and an epic Taylor Swift x Lynyrd Skynyrd blend.
It was a celebration of love, laughter, and good vibes—exactly how Mia and Sam envisioned it.
