Manny is great to work with! Manny is friendly, professional and an amazing DJ. He customizes his music to the crowd by playing a variety of music. He even downloaded Bollywood and Sri Lankan music for my reception! I would definitely recommend Manny!

Choosing a DJ is not easy, especially when you don’t necessarily know what questions to ask or what the extent of their role should be at your event. We chose Manny because after our initial query and the onslaught of quotes we received, Manny was one of a few that followed up with a personalized note. After I responded to those that followed up with DJs who took that extra step, Manny the first to follow through with a scheduled phone call. This level of professionalism was consistent from Manny as we got closer to our wedding. He took initiative to pre-visit our ceremony/reception venue, walked us through every step of our day, reminded us of what we would need to be concerned with and more importantly, what we didn’t need to worry about and ultimately, was the driving force behind executing the schedule for the day. A job he took seriously but with a light hearted approach that really drove the mood of the reception. Manny got our friends and family on their feet dancing, laughing, and set the tone for the whole event, brining up the energy and winding it down when appropriate to execute the timeline. I have to say, Manny’s earnest approach to his work, the way he handled the wedding party and our guests, his input on things like “how do we do the cake cutting?” And all his attention to detail ultimately led to the success of our day. We are grateful we worked with Manny and definitely feel like he would be an asset to your team! Thanks Manny for your help and support!

I must say I could not be any happier and impressed by the service and attention I received from Manny. When I first started looking for a DJ it was hard to find someone that clicked with me and my personality. I wanted a really non-traditional wedding and I was looking for someone who was going to understand what it was that I was looking for. I mean my fiance and I were getting married at a baseball stadium in Lake Elsinore for crying out loud! When I first contacted Manny he seemed to immediately get what I was trying to do for our wedding. I loved how he was just as hyped up and excited as I was for the event. He never once said "no that's not a good idea", or "that is not something that I do" Manny was super accommodating to the situations that came up through the process. He sent over the worksheet for the wedding day and I must say that it helped me get organized for the big day. I was able to really customize and break down what we wanted to do from ceremony to reception. Manny was so generous to agree to do both the ceremony and the reception since he has more than one system available to use. This really relieved some stress from me because I was freaking out about moving seamlessly from ceremony to cocktail hour to reception. Right up until the night before the wedding he let me make changes and add last minute songs to the must play list. The day of the wedding was a breeze! We came, we got married, and we partied! I can say that we were totally ahead of schedule because Manny was fantastic at getting things going and making sure that we were all lined up and ready to go! We had a great night dancing the night away to the point where me and my husband didn't even leave when we were supposed to! I HIGHLY recommend Manny for your event! He gave me more than I could imagine for the pricing that he charged me. His wife is also super awesome and fun to talk to in between songs. If you are looking for a DJ that wants to make sure that you have a banging party this is your DJ.

Manny is an awesome DJ! He kept the party going and everyone had an awesome time! Manny took the time to survey my husband and myself and get to know us- qualities in an excellent vendor. He even met with our wedding location to make sure he had everything he needed for our wedding. He did a beautiful job with the music for my ceremony as well, everyone loved his work. If you want someone who is professional, thorough and will keep the party going, Manny is your guy!
