Just had our wedding last Friday with DJ Johnny, who is bilingual (husband's family speaks Spanish). The beginning of the planning process was a breeze! We were given access to a personal website where we could create the timeline for our reception and select songs for the specific parts like the first dance, speeches, garter toss, etc. If there were songs I didn't see on their list, I was simply able to send a message and they obtained and played them at our reception.

The variety of songs was top notch! There were many moments where all of the seats in the room were empty because everyone was on the dance floor - exactly what we wanted! I would recommend Event Entertainment to anyone looking for a stellar DJ at an affordable price.

When my husband and I married, we knew we would need to find a way to combine both our cultural backgrounds. He's an American from New Hampshire, I'm bicultural with one half of my family being American, and the other half being Latinos from Ecuador. Music was going to be a very important factor, and we wanted to make sure everyone felt represented and heard something familiar to get up and dance! I searched on google for a bilingual DJ in the Washington DC area, and DJ Johnny was the first to come up through Event Entertainment. His reviews were phenomenal, so I asked my mom to reach out. She said that speaking with the general manager and owner, Dave Holmes, was seamless and he answered all her questions, plus we got a discount for booking as part of the FABnet! After booking Johnny, a couple months before the wedding he send an email requesting a list songs we were interested in hearing. We were so late returning it with all the wedding planning (literally the day before the wedding!), but Johnny was incredibly understanding and professional, and he still took the time to review our choices and accommodate. On the day of the wedding, he arrived on time and looked very sharp. He respected my husband and my wish to forgo being an MC for the traditional bouquet toss and all that, and didn't announce our first dance or anything to allow us some privacy. He did inform guests where to pick up their favors, and we greatly appreciated that. Otherwise, he focused on the music! But most importantly he did a wonderful job of mixing up the music and reading the crowd to know when to change things up to draw people back on to the dance floor. We had people dancing the whole night through our reception, it was such a hit! Overall, we're extremely pleased with DJ Johnny's skills and service! I would highly recommend Johnny for any event that involves music and dancing because he knows how to keep a party going!

Dave Holmes and DJ Johnny were 100% responsive at all times prior to the wedding. At the wedding, DJ Johnny was just perfect! He could not have done a better job. He understood the very diverse crowd (half Venezuelan, half American) perfectly and played each song requested. He was amazing. We were dancing the whole reception!

DJ Jhonny was absolutely amazing my husbands family most of them speak mainly Spanish and he spoke evenly the amounts of English and Spanish so both would understand what was happening. I had time changes and they accommodated everything I had asked for with absolutely no problems. He played great music I gave a specific time period of music and he gave me everything I was asking for. I recommend them in a heart beat absolutely wonderful people to work with

Dave,
Good evening. I apologize for my delay in getting back to you; Wilmar and I just returned from our 3-week honeymoon this weekend so I have been a bit out of touch internet-wise.

DJ Johnny was fantastic at our wedding. He did a wonderful job of keeping our guests engaged (multiple generations and multiple languages/music preferences). Many guests complimented on his ability to mix Latin and American music and keep everyone on the dance floor. He was also very flexible and "went with the flow." For example, my sister-in-law decided last minute to do a dollar dance and DJ Johnny went right along with it and picked great music to get many of our guests involved (even those who didn't know what a dollar dance was - myself included). He also did a great job of arranging the uplighting. I highly recommend DJ Johnny.
Thank you both for all of your hard work. You both have been wonderful! Please let me know if you have any questions or if I can provide any additional information.

Regards,
Marissa

DJ Johnny was beyond expectations! He was excellent and was able to "read" the crowd for the perfect music all evening long, and kept the "chatter" to a minimum. We would not hesitate to use him again, or recommend his services to anyone else.

Dj Johnny was great! When he arrived at the venue, he was told to set up inside which he did.The reception was outdoors so I asked him if he could set up outside just minutes before the start of the reception. He had no problem doing so and in a timely manner. This was a black-hispanic wedding and Johnny has everyone on the dance floor.

DJ Johnny did a great job for our wedding on 6/15/13. We wanted a fun party, with both Spanish and English music and a DJ who would not take center stage. He did a wonderful job managing all of that. He was professional, and really did feel out the crowd and moved seamlessly through both types of music, depending on the dancing. The rates are competitive for the area.

The only thing that I would say could be improved is the response rate for questions building up to the wedding. We had a number of songs that we wanted that were not on their online registry of songs. We emailed a ton of questions and they took a bit to respond. However, in the end they did listen to our requests and included them at the party, so I can't complain about outcome. It was probably just my anxiety as a bride trying to make sure everything is planned well in advance. Anyhow, I'd definitely recommend them, especially if you have need of a bilingual bicultural DJ.

John Torres was the DJ at my wedding in 2011. Everyone loved him so much that we hired him for my mom's 50th birthday party in 2013. He did not disappoint! He played a great mix of music along with requested songs. Thanks to John, it was another great party!

Customer service was great. I was completely last minute, as in, ordering stuff the DAY OF THE EVENT... and Dave made it happen. I was freaking out about the music, lights, etc., but he reassured me the entire week before the wedding. In the end, I was impressed with his ability to fulfill my VERY last-minute requests as well as happy with the music he played. It was a mixture of American music and Cumba and other types, but he did a good job.

Hi Mr Holmes,
Just wanted to let you know, that everything went well.  David was very professional about it. He played all the music we requested, and went beyond his time a little bit. So I think everyone had a good time, and had lots of people dancing, that was very important to us.
Thank you for your service,

Event Entertainment provided our DJ, Johnny Torres. Johnny was amazing! We really wanted a bilingual DJ because my family is Puerto Rican. He did a fantastic job MCing in Spanish and English, and he played a perfect mix of Latin and American music. Not only did he play our top requested songs, but he truly "read" the dance floor and played music that kept our guests on the dance floor ALL night long. He was exceptionally flexible and accommodated all of our requests. He made it a point to make himself available to me whenever I called and I felt more than confident that he would do a great job on our wedding day.

I would like to give big props to Dj Johnny. He did an excellent job. He was very easy to talk to and he understood our detailed requests. He was very prepared when we had to make last minutes changes to our music selections. He did an awesome job transitioning from english to spanish music which had everyone from all ages on the dance floor all night long. He also saved us because he provided some background music when we were doing the cutting of the cake, which we forgot to select a song for. Dj Johnny was great when following our agenda and timeline. He and our day coordinator were on the same page throughout the night. He did an excellent job when introducing the wedding party. Overall great emcee. We would like to thank him for making our special day even more special by being a great Dj and emcee. We will definitely recommend him to our friends who are looking to get married in the near future or any other special event. You can provide my email address (giovannisanchez@hotmail.com) to others who are looking for recommendations.

I used Johnny Torres who was absolutely wonderful. We got a ton of compliments on him from our guests. We had a multi-cultural wedding (I'm American and my husband's Peruvian) and he handled the diversity in music really well. He had both sides dancing! He tried very hard to fulfill all our requests and their system for planning out the reception online is very easy to use and super convenient. Whenever I had a question they were always very quick to respond and never gave me any problems. I even changed the times for him to be there 2 weeks before the wedding and they did it with no complaints!

DJ John Torrez was great! I loved how he incorporated my (bride's) requests and the general feeling of the songs I was going for. We had some Spanish speakers and mostly English speakers but he kept the party going with a mixed playlist. Our guests commented on how fun it was and how the music was great (and how we didn't have any cliché wedding music!). Overall I would highly recommend him. On another note: the Event entertainment website was great. The song list request forms were thorough and easy to use, I was very happy to have the ability to choose a lot of music beyond the standard "wedding music" paper form that I've seen other companies use.

We had DJ John Torres of Event Entertainment for our wedding. He definitely kept people on the dance floor until way after midnight. The sound system was excellent. I would have preferred BOSE, which wasn't available at that night and I was very happy with the provided sound system. Event Entertainment has a website where you can make your own play list (if you prefer that), including the timing. The DJ showed up in adequate attire. We had a meeting beforehand which left me with a very good impression. John really listened to us. We had to start the ceremony half an hour late. John was booked only for the reception and since he started while everybody was still eating, because of the earlier delay, he was flexible and played adequate dinner music. And all of this without interrupting the course. He just did what had to be done. I would recommend him ANYTIME.

I have been meaning to write you and John since Monica's and Carlos's wedding.  My husband and I and our guests enjoyed John's performance as DJ very, very much.  John could probably tell by watching all the happy people on the dance floor!  It was a great mix of Latin music, classic rock, and some traditional ethnic songs like Hava Negilah and La Bamba.  The music really pulled the families and guests together.  Also, we liked John's style in announcing the bridal party and the special dances.  He was warm yet discrete and never pushed his own personality over those of the bride, groom, and families.

Thanks, also, John, for being prompt and setting up with ease.  And thanks to both of you for your professionalism and attention all through the process of signing the contract and choosing songs.  We never had a nervous moment in dealing with Event Entertainment or with John Torres, DJ. Best wishes to both of you,

Johnny did a wonderful job at our wedding.  When he learned that the bride's family is from Spain, he took it upon himself to mix in some salsa music for them to dance to.  When the bride and groom were going from table to table greeting the guests, one of the elderly guests actually commented on how good a job Johnny was doing.  She said the volume was perfect because she could carry on conversations at the tables with no problem, but the dance floor was never empty.  Thanks again, Johnny!  And thanks to Dave for all of the reminders and for putting us in touch with Johnny.
