DJ LaNena was amazing! She made our Sweet 16 so much fun! Her intuition in what to play we as in point! We gave little guidance and a few breadcrumbs we gave her she took and ran with, and everyone had the time of their lives! All the partygoers raved about what an incredible job she did and how much fun they had! I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again and would encourage anyone to have her DJ their event! I can’t rave enough about her.

DJ LaNena was a fantastic addition to our annual work holiday party and helped make the event super fun and engaging. She truly listened to what I was hoping for, while also being quick to pivot based on the vibe, including accommodating song requests. She was on time and professional, brought premium equipment, and we look forward to working with her again!

DJ La Nena did a great job at our event. She was professional, easy to work with, and really listened to what we wanted. The music fit the vibe perfectly and kept people dancing and enjoying themselves throughout the night, even those who weren’t on the dance floor the whole time were having a great time. She made our event memorable. Her rates were very reasonable too. We’d definitely recommend her for any event.

Outstanding experience with DJ La Nena. Easy to connect and communicate with. She always got back to us right away and was super responsive to all our questions and requests. She helped us curate a custom playlist. Most importantly, the music was AMAZING. Multiple people at our wedding said it was the best dance music they’d had at a wedding. The volume was perfect. The song transitions were seamless. There was a very good mix of styles and moods. DJ LaNena hit it out of the park. Would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a fun, supportive, and genuinely kind person who has the technical expertise to pull off a great sound in any environment!

Dj LaNena made our Halloween party a big hit in the neighborhood. From our first interaction, she was very professional, detail oriented, extremely responsive and pleasant to talk to. The day of the party, she showed up way ahead of the party start time to set everything up, and even dressed up to the party theme! The quality of her DJ skills is superb; testament to it is that everyone wanted the music to go lover so we extended it. Cannot wait to throw another party so we can all enjoy DJ LaNena’s art again.
