PERSONAL BY DESIGN. MUSICAL BY INSTINCT.
A great night
starts with listening.
Hi, I’m Mario. Before I choose the first track, I want to get to know you: what you love, who is coming and the atmosphere you have in mind. That is where we start planning an evening that reflects your taste and puts your guests at ease.
I’ve been involved in music since 1995 and DJing since 1998. SONIQUE grew out of that experience in 2019, bringing together thoughtful preparation, calm communication and a feel for the people on the dance floor.
Together with you and your other suppliers, I plan the music, announcements and flow of the celebration. I pay particular attention to the details that mean something to you: a song you share, an inside story or an unusual idea you would like to include. During the evening, I read the room and adapt the music as it unfolds.
I build energy through song selection and a sense of timing. My presence is understated, my style simple and elegant, and my microphone use clear and measured. I give your guests room to relax and let the music draw them naturally onto the dance floor.
You spend the evening with your favourite people while I take care of the music, well-timed announcements and a natural flow from one moment to the next.

GOOD TO KNOW
Before the
first track.
From the first enquiry to the music plan: answers to the practical questions.
What does a wedding DJ in Croatia cost?
The quote depends on your date, location, playing time, guest count and technical setup. Ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and party can be quoted separately or together. Send the details and you will receive a tailored offer.
Can we choose the music and share a do-not-play list?
Yes. We discuss the songs and styles you love, your must-plays and what you want to leave out. On the day, I shape that direction around the people on the dance floor.
Can you work with our wedding planner and venue?
Yes. We align the music cues, announcements and agreed schedule with your planner and venue. We also clarify access, power, the position of the DJ setup and any venue sound requirements before the event.
Are sound and lighting included?
The offer specifies the agreed sound, microphones, lighting and programme. Different spaces may need separate setups. Live saxophone or electric guitar and additional equipment can be arranged by agreement.
Do you travel to the islands and other parts of Croatia?
SONIQUE is based in Sinj, Dalmatia, and accepts enquiries across Croatia. For island weddings we plan transport, ferry schedules, loading and any overnight arrangements around the venue and programme.
How do we start planning from abroad?
Send your date, venue, approximate guest count and the parts of the day you want covered. After agreeing the service, the English music planner helps organise your ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and party.
