Highly recommend 100%!!!
My wife and I can not say enough great things about Elio! We first met Elio in January 2020 for a friend's wedding and had the absolute best time! When it came time for our wedding...
three years later, we knew we had to have Elio DJ our wedding. Our wedding was a mix of American, Jewish, and Hispanic guests. Our guests' feedback about Elio was that they all had an incredible time. Elio was even kind enough to play a Cuban song from 1955, a request from my father-in-law, who was born and raised in Cuba. The joy it brought to my wife and father-in-law will be a core memory for us. Elio goes above and beyond, is genuinely passionate about his work, and will make your event memorable!

on the playlist with some songs we had wanted to play during our day, but besides that it was just perfect — all of our guests are still talking about what an amazing party it was. Gracias Elio!
5 STARS IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT! If I could give him 10 I would! Most fun I’ve ever had at a wedding and I am thankful that it was mine. Everyone talked about him during the night, af...
ter the wedding at the hotel, AND the morning after. He is also an amazing person to work with and really does his best to perfect the energy and playlist for your special day. Any request I had he made it happen wether it was before during planning or as the event was going on. 10/10 would book him again even for a small party that’s how awesome his energy is. He has a wonderful presence and caters to all different kinds of people and their backgrounds and tastes in music. We had country, rock and roll, Spanish, R&B and hip hop (so quite the mix lol) and he blended it perfectly together. Also, if you’re looking for someone to get people on the dance floor and make your wedding an all out party he is the perfect guy! Good luck planning to whoever reads this, and if you go with Elio you’re making the best decision!
This man is the best, hands down! My wife and I were searching for a bilingual entertainer and man did we hit the jackpot. He brought magic and energy to our wedding day. He arrive...
d plenty early to ensure his set up was complete and tested before the event. Elio is a gifted professional. His energy and charisma are infectious and unmatched. Even when the song was slower, the energy remained.
We were actually offered a free DJ for our wedding from a friend that knows some DJs personally. Turning down that offer, when we found Elio’s website, was the best decision we made for our wedding. That friend even praised Elio and stated that she had never seen such an entertaining DJ such as him. By the end of the night, we were swimming in compliments about him.
He brought the fiesta and helped make our wedding day memorable and magical.
Elio did such an excellent job for us at our wedding! The process was easy and he was so much fun. Our guests loved him!
Elio brought the party to our wedding and we wouldn’t have wanted it any other way! Everyone was dancing and having an amazing time. Elio was great with our guests and actually got...

You will not regret hiring Elio as your DJ. He was sensitive all of our needs. We wouldn’t have had a flawless wedding without him. He brings the fiesta to your fiesta!
