About SoundMykonos

What does SoundMykonos do?

SoundMykonos provides DJs, live musicians, sound and lighting for weddings and private events on Mykonos, and rents out professional sound and lighting equipment. Four in five of our clients are couples getting married.

Who is behind SoundMykonos?

A small permanent team based on Mykonos year-round — DJs, live musicians, sound and lighting engineers and crew — founded by DJ George Apsis. The same people plan, deliver and run every booking.

Where are you based, and where do you work?

We're based in Kalo Livadi, Mykonos, year-round, and work across the island — villas, hotels, beach venues and yachts. Nearby islands on request.

Has SoundMykonos won any awards?

Yes — WeddingWire Couples' Choice in 2019, 2020 and 2022, voted by the couples we've worked with.

How do we get in touch?

Call or WhatsApp +30 6975 734 733, or send the two-minute enquiry form on our contact page. Tell us the date, the venue and roughly how many guests.

Weddings

Do you cover the ceremony as well as the party?

Yes — most couples book us for the whole day: microphones and speakers for the ceremony, sound for the aperitivo and dinner, then the DJ set and lighting for the party. You can also book any single part on its own.

How much does a wedding DJ cost on Mykonos?

Every wedding is quoted to its own venue, guest count and timeline — sound for a ceremony alone costs far less than a full day with a DJ, live musicians and lighting. Send your date and venue and we'll reply with a tailored proposal, usually within a day. Equipment-only rentals are priced per item on our equipment pages.

What if the equipment fails during the wedding?

A second rig travels to every wedding. If a speaker, player or cable fails, we switch to the backup on the spot and the music never stops. There is no second delivery run on an island at 21:00 — so we bring the spare the first time.

Can you provide live musicians — a saxophone, harp or singer?

Yes. Alongside DJs we book saxophonists, singers, harpists, violinists and duets — often layered over the DJ for the ceremony or the aperitivo. Tell us the moment and we'll suggest the act.

Do you speak English? Our guests aren't Greek.

The whole team works in English, and the site is in English and French. Most of our couples plan their wedding from abroad — we do this every season.

How far in advance should we book?

Peak dates from June to September go early, so the sooner you send your date and venue the better. We'll always tell you honestly whether we're free.

Can you work at our venue, or across two locations?

We work across Mykonos — villas, hotels, beach venues and yachts — and know most of them already. Ceremony in one place and reception in another is common here; we plan the timing and, where needed, a second setup so each part has its own sound.

Equipment rental

How does equipment rental work?

Pick what you need from the catalogue and check availability for your dates. We deliver to your venue, set up and tune the system, and collect it afterwards. Every item has a day rate, and many also have 3- and 7-day rates.

How much does it cost to rent sound equipment on Mykonos?

Rates start from €45 per day for a single item, and professional speakers start from €240 per day. Longer rentals cost less per day. Every price is listed on its equipment page.

Which brands do you rent?

Speakers from FBT, JBL, Mackie, and TW Audio; Pioneer DJ players, mixers and all-in-one systems; and lighting from Ape Labs, beamZ, BOOMTONE DJ, Portman, and Spacelights — moving heads, beams, LED bars and battery uplights.

Do you set up the equipment, or do we?

We do. Delivery, setup and soundcheck are part of the job, and a technician can stay through the night — tell us when you book.

Can we hire a DJ with the equipment?

Yes. Our DJs and live musicians play on our own rig, so sound, lighting and performers all come from one team.

Still have a question?
