    Why couples from abroad choose Assaf

    A DJ who reads the room

    The playlist is the plan, the dance floor is the boss. I watch the crowd all night and change direction the moment the energy calls for it.

    Israeli and American guests, one dance floor

    Israeli and Mizrahi hits for the family from Israel, the songs your American friends grew up on, and the timing that brings both sides together.

    Planned with you in English, over Zoom

    Fluent English, a full music meeting over Zoom and WhatsApp in between. You can plan the whole soundtrack before you land.

    Your moments, your songs

    Chuppah entrance, breaking the glass, first dance: we choose them together, along with a do-not-play list that is respected all night.

    What couples say

    Reviews were written in Hebrew on Israel's leading wedding review site. Below are faithful translations, each linked to the original.

    “He knew how to read the crowd and lift the atmosphere exactly as needed. From the very first meeting it was clear he knows his stuff, and that our wedding was in the best hands possible.”
    ליטלTranslated from HebrewOriginal review
    “What mattered to us musically was that all of our guests could celebrate, dance and feel part of the biggest event of our lives, from the young crowd to the older guests.”
    hgaflaTranslated from HebrewOriginal review
    “The help we got from him choosing the songs for the chuppah and the slow dance was critical. Assaf sat with us for close to three and a half hours in the music meeting, until we found the song we both agreed on.”

    Frequently asked questions

    Yes. A large part of my work is with couples who plan their wedding in Israel from abroad. We plan everything remotely over Zoom and WhatsApp, and I take care of the music on the day so you can enjoy it.

    Yes. I DJ weddings in the US as well. Send me your date and location and I'll come back with availability and a quote that includes travel.

    Yes. I speak fluent English and hold music meetings over Zoom, so you can plan before you even land in Israel. If one of you or your family prefers Hebrew, we can switch at any point.

    That is exactly what reading the room is about. I balance Israeli and Mizrahi hits with the American and international songs your guests know, and adjust the mix on the dance floor in real time, so both sides of the family end up dancing together.

    Israeli, Mizrahi, international pop, 80s and 90s, house, trance and reggaeton, plus classics from the 1940s to today's hits. The mix is built around your taste and your guests.

    6 to 12 months ahead is recommended, especially for the busy Israeli wedding season (April to October) and for weddings in the US that involve travel.
