DJ Eric was absolutely phenomenal and truly the best DJ we have ever had! I honestly can’t say enough wonderful things about him. From the very beginning, he was professional, kind, patient, and incredibly easy to work with. He was right on time, prepared, and always willing to work around my many timeline changes and last-minute adjustments. He never made me feel like I was asking for too much and was always so understanding. The timeline sheet he provided was also incredibly helpful and easy to fill out. The timeline sheet made sure I didn’t miss any important moments, for example: the time for cocktail hour, dinner to the bouquet and garter toss etc. ❤️ Without the sheet I would be forgetting some of the important tasks to add.
He also listened carefully to everything I wanted and followed our timeline and music requests exactly as we discussed. He did an amazing job reading the crowd and knowing what songs to play to keep everyone engaged, dancing, and having a great time. The dance floor was full, and our guests could not stop raving about the DJ! Everyone kept telling us how amazing the music and energy were.
What really stood out to me was how kind and patient Eric was throughout the entire process. Planning a wedding can be stressful, but having a
DJ who was so dependable accommodating, and genuinely nice made such a huge difference. He handled all of our announcements, music cues, special moments, and requests so smoothly.
DJ Eric went above and beyond for us, and we are so incredibly grateful. He helped make our wedding day fun, memorable, and exactly what we hoped it would be. We couldn't have asked for a better
DJ, and we would 100% recommend DJ Eric to anyone looking for an amazing wedding DJ! 🎶❤️💃🕺
Thank you so much, Eric, for helping make our wedding day unforgettable!

DJ Erick Ve did an amazing job!!! The music was on point from the beginning to the very end. He listened to guests requests and really played off the vibe of the crowd. Although he gave me credit to writing a list of songs for him to play, he goes beyond just a person pressing play. He transforms the music to ensure smooth transitions and seamless blend of different music genres. At the very end, I told him I was all set for him to finish the night at which time a request for a slow dance song came in. I thought this would be it. No. He went above and beyond to notice that all the couples still present were enjoying the romantic moment and continued to prolong this special time by playing a couple more songs to wind the night down beautifully. It was a moment I didn’t know I wanted or needed and he helped make it one of my favorite core memories. Thank you so much DjErick Ve

DJ Erick did an absolutely amazing job with our wedding! He was very responsive, quite knowledgable and followed our wishes to a t. He spoke Spanish, which was great for our Colombian guests. We were able to give him an idea of the vibe we wanted and he did a great job to match our wishes. He was able to make last minute adjustments and with his help the event went great. His questionnaire is great because it’s so specific. Thank you for everything DJ Erick!

Better late than never, but Dj Erick was the Dj for our "End of the year" event in Oakland. It was about a 350 people event. Prior to the event he was proactive and reached out so that the event can go smoothly. During the event, he was good at reading the crowd and keeping everyone dancing. He received a lot of request and was open to playing as many as possible. It was a mix of Spanish and English speakers, but everyone loved the music choices. I really liked the ambient lights that went with the music. Will definitely be working with Dj Erick in the future.

Based on other Thumbtack and Facebook reviews, I hired Erick to DJ for my husband's 50th birthday party. He and his assistant were very professional and prompt in setting up and getting the music going for our guests to enjoy. My husband provided Erick with a playlist request, and was not disappointed at all. Erick did a great job getting our guests involved and making announcements per our requests. The dance floor was packed most of the night, and everyone really enjoyed the variety of music. Erick provided lighting effects that really added a nice touch to the party. We had several guests that asked about the DJ and we were very happy to pass his info on. Without any hesitation, we would hire Erick again to help us party!
