Caravan Sounds were music to our ears when looking for a DJ for our wedding reception! Sarah’s communication was amazing - super attentive and helpful in navigating what’s a pretty tricky part of planning a wedding (selecting the perfect music). Our wedding focus was ‘vibe’ and Sarah hit the brief (and some!).
The night was amazing and they had our dance floor raging from the first song right through to the final. We didn’t want the night to stop!
Can highly, HIGHLY recommend Caravan Sounds for your wedding, or really, any event! The caravan itself is a fun little addition that really transforms the scene of your event - it’s so much more fun that a standard DJ setup, and it looked amazing at our wedding! They were even able to style it to suit our overall theme.
Massive shootout to DJ Tim who assisted on the evening!
Do yourself a favour - book Caravan Sounds!

If I could give a million stars I would!
Sarah was AMAZING!!!! I sent her a playlist for our pre ceremony and cocktail hour and some vibes for the rest of the evening and boy did Sarah deliver! Perfect with the fade outs and timings for the ceremony! Everyone from young to old was up and dancing all night! The dance floor was not empty at all! There was not one bad song! Tune after tune kept coming out, Sarah read the room so well! All night my guests were coming up to me asking who the DJ was because they were having the best time and had never been to a wedding with banger after banger and everyone dancing! People who had never met before were up and dancing together! Can’t thank you enough for the vibes you brought to our wedding! Your caravan booth was perfect for our “wedstival” wedding and was an amazing backdrop for when the ceremony was moved inside! Thanks again guys! 💖💖💖

Sarah Mac! There are not enough words to encompass how much of an epic human you are! I am so so so so grateful for the experience that you created for us with your beautiful caravan and amazing talent. You made our night so brilliant and we had to drag people off the Dancefloor at the end of the night because of the energy you created! Thank you for working with us and being so accommodating to making everything perfect. You are so exceptional at what you do and I hope that there is an opportunity in the future for us to dance with you again!! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything! You are brilliant!

We hired Caravan Sounds for an outdoor wedding in Yarrawonga. Sarah was knowledgeable, responsive and very professional from the outset and her dj skills are beyond impressive. We received endless comments from guests regarding how amazing the vibe and music were - managing to blend our slightly obscure music choice in with party faves and dance floor fillers. Highly recommend!

We had Tim from Caravan Sounds down at our wedding this weekend! He arrived promptly, set up and had the tunes going on time! Tim played everything we asked for at exactly the right moment without delay and kept the party going all night.
He was also such a kind soul and made sure to congratulate us too! Thanks so much Tim and Caravan Sounds we love you !!

Wowza, Caravan Sounds have been absolutely incredible from the get go! Sarah and Casey have been so accomodating, open to our ideas and questions and helpful in the planning process. Tim, our Dj was such a legend! The dance floor was pumping from the minute he started playing; he filled the brief of the vibe and music we were dreaming of and everyone had such a blast. 100% recommend!! If we could pick 10 stars we would! Made our wedding a day to remember!!

Who presses play?
Sarah Mac - Dj of 15 Years
Vinyl collector, Music lover,
Milo Drinker.
Starting out as a bedroom DJ working on my skills, I had my first residency at ‘Somewhere Bar’ on the iconic Chapel Street in Melbourne every Thursday night.
From there, the gigs, experience and events grew. These venues were a training ground to teach me how to read a room and hold a crowd….and no one needs you to hold a crowd more than a bar manager who needs drink sales to stay open.
After all these years, I have hundreds (probably thousands) of weddings, club sets, private parties, and festival sets in my name.
Away from Caravan Sounds, I have a strong activation & events background working for the Australian Radio Network, Future Entertainment & Network 10.
Three fun facts you didn’t ask for about me, but I’m telling you anyway.
– Played over 200 games of women’s football in the VFLW / EFNL
– Best gig attended ~ Daft Punk – Alive
– I am currently studying in Paramedicine
