Symi is small, colourful and unforgettable: neoclassical houses climbing up from the harbour, terraces over the sea and celebrations that feel personal. Weddings here are usually more intimate, and the music has to match the setting: elegant at dinner, full of energy when the party starts.
I have played weddings in Symi and know what the island asks for: careful logistics, compact and clean-looking setups, and a team that arrives prepared.
Private villas and beach venues around the island, often accessible only by boat or via narrow roads.
On Symi, space and access are often limited, so the setup is designed for the venue: compact speakers that still give clear, full sound, lighting that looks good in photos, and fairy lights that turn a terrace into a dance floor.
Many couples who choose Symi have guests from several countries. I mix international hits with the songs that matter to both families, so everyone has a reason to dance.
DJ performance, professional sound for the ceremony and speeches, dance floor lighting, fairy light installations and cold sparks & effects, all designed together for your venue.
Yiannis was incredible for our wedding! The communication leading up to the event was incredible. Which for any bride planning a wedding, is always stressful.We really wanted a DJ that brought the vibes AND played great music. He brought great energy! Our guests had a great time partying until the early morning and it was all thanks to Yiannis keeping it fun! Highly recommend. Absolutely will be hiring him for our future events!
Yiannis was a top professional who brought the energy and fun for our wedding party! He was great and balanced the set list for UK / Greek guests perfectly. He had the dancefloor full and we could not have asked for a better night.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our wedding. From the very first conversation, everything was handled warmly and professionally, and on the day itself the music was simply perfect.

Every transition felt seamless, and he balanced everyone’s musical tastes beautifully.Thank you for making our wedding celebration so memorable.

The soundtrack to the best day of our lives. Thank you for making our wedding feel so effortless, fun, and unforgettable. You truly made the night one to remember! 🤍🎶
Deciding upon a Dj for our wedding was, next to food, our most important priority. We wanted to make sure that the celebration would be accompanied by the right tone and vibe and that the party wouldn’t blow over as the time passed. Yiannis was the best choice we could have made. Very professional, warm and sharp when we conveyed the tone we were aiming for. He got the total sense and went along with it. The celebration had no moment of musical mismatch or need of alignment. To all the brides: he will stay “loyal” to your vision and will not follow anyone’s request without consulting you. We truly recommend him🫶🏻
I had the absolute pleasure of working with Yiannis, and I cannot recommend him highly enough! From the very first interaction, he was responsive, attentive to my wishes, and truly understood how to set the perfect tone for the celebration.The music was flawlessly curated and timed — creating an atmosphere that was both elegant and full of energy. My guests were on the dance floor all night, and many told me afterward it was the best party they’d ever been to. The transitions were smooth, the sound quality was top-notch, and Yiannis clearly has a gift for reading the crowd and keeping the momentum going.What really stood out was Yiannis’ calm, professional demeanor paired with a genuine passion for creating an unforgettable experience.If you're looking for someone who will elevate your event with talent, heart, and professionalism — look no further. Yiannis helped make my party magical.
We are still buzzing from the amazing energy Yiannis brought to our event! From the moment the music started, the party did not stop. Every track was a hit, every transition flawless, and he somehow managed to keep everyone on the dance floor—young, old, and everyone in between. Best Dj ever!
Yiannis is, above all, a wonderful person,reliable, cooperative, and truly a joy to work with. He genuinely wants people to have a good time, and he absolutely succeeds in making that happen. With him, we created the most amazing birthday party. My guests danced non-stop for seven hours!
Wonderful DJ!! My now husband and I really enjoyed his music and entertainment! Our guests did not stop talking about the music at our wedding! Highly recommended!! Ευχαριστούμε πολύ Γιάννη!!
Gianni kept the party going, mixing lots of different genres together to appease a very international crowd (this is a hard gig but he aced it) the dance floor was on fire, he kept it interesting and no one could resist. Everyone was amazed.
DJ Yiannis was the DJ for my best friends wedding on Paros! He flew out from Athens and was INCREDIBLE! Amazing song choices/mixes and kept the party going all night. The dance floor was FULL and even came out to our after party after the wedding to DJ!! Couldn’t recommend him enough!!
Yes. I have played weddings in Symi and I know the island's logistics, from ferry schedules to access for the equipment.
The equipment travels by ferry, either directly from Piraeus or via Rhodes, and is then moved to your venue by van or boat. Everything is planned and quoted in advance.
Yes. For small spaces we use compact, high-quality speakers and lighting, so the sound is clear and the setup looks clean in your photos.
No. We plan everything online before the wedding, and once you book you get a private planning page for your music and timeline.
