A local base for a personal celebration.
I’m Mario Hrste, the DJ behind SONIQUE. Based in Sinj, Dalmatia, I have been DJing since 1998. For weddings in Split and the wider region, I bring a personal approach to the music and a practical approach to preparation. Your favourite songs and your guests are the starting point.
We accept enquiries for Split, Trogir, the Makarska Riviera, the Dalmatian hinterland and islands such as Hvar and Brač, as well as other locations across Croatia. The date, transport and venue requirements are confirmed individually before booking.
Ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and party.
Your booking can cover selected moments or the full agreed programme. Ceremony music needs careful timing; drinks need an easy atmosphere; dinner needs space for conversation and speeches. For the party, I connect your musical direction with the energy on the dance floor.
We agree your must-plays, do-not-play list and important cues in advance. If your guests come from different countries or generations, tell me about them. The aim is an evening that feels connected and personal, with announcements and coordination agreed with your planner.
The right plan for the coast, islands or hinterland.
A location changes the practical preparation. A terrace, a garden and a ballroom do not need the same sound setup. For island weddings, transport and access are part of the plan from the beginning. Here is what we clarify:
- The precise venue and the spaces used for each stage, including an indoor or covered alternative.
- Guest count, sound coverage, microphones and any lighting or live-musician additions.
- Loading access, power, setup windows and the venue’s confirmed music conditions.
- Ferry or boat arrangements, equipment transport and any accommodation needed for island events.
- Your planner or on-site contact, the timeline and a clear plan for the important music cues.
Start with the date and the place.
Send your wedding date, venue, approximate guest count and the parts of the celebration you want covered. The quote will explain the agreed music service, equipment and logistics. After booking, the English music planner helps you gather song choices, speeches, first-dance details and the timeline. A showroom meeting in Sinj can be arranged in advance. You can also explore the separate planning guides for Vila Dalmacija in Split, Villa Gala near Sinj, Kadinela in Kaštela and Krolo Winery near Trilj.
