d expertise showed as they were able to make our ideas not just a possibility, but a reality that flowed perfectly with the rest of the day. Even when my groomsmen and I threw a wrench in the plan and gave them a song the day-of to play, Darren & Claudia were able to fit it in and make it perfect. We are so thankful that we chose Cavo Entertainment and if we ever have any other need for a DJ, they will be the first ones we go to!

n complimented by almost every guest about how amazing and fun our wedding was, and that was very much due to Claudia and Darren's expertise and guidance. I had some guests tell me they were about to head out and then ended up staying another hour because the music kept them on the dance floor. They found a way to excite every one of our guests and keep them engaged/dancing. I was thoroughly impressed and would recommend them to anyone looking for a DJ.
Cavo Entertainment was the best decision we made for the wedding! We almost didn’t go with a DJ but sooo glad we did. They both were incredible and the communicate before the weddi...

d they were incredibly easy to make the switch with.
They don’t just have a table at the reception, which made the DJ table look even better.
The photo booth they set up was also a huge hit.
If you have an upcoming wedding, Darren and Claudia will take amazing care of you. You will not find a better option.

le process. We knew right away that we wanted to book Cavo! Shortly after, they reached out to us to meet in person and again were both super organized. Claudia and Darren followed a detailed guide and even asked questions I hadn’t even thought of. It really made the whole wedding day go smoothly with everything that they did beforehand!! Could not have asked for a better wedding day DJ! Music, entertainment, dancing on clouds and sparks all went well. Great team!!
Darren and Claudia were the BEST to work with and I would highly recommend them to anyone! From our initial inquiry, they were communicative, thorough, and detailed. We loved that ...
they sent us a workbook to help guide us through everything we might need to consider - there were so many things that we hadn't even thought about! They helped us create a detailed timeline, and when our wedding day came, they executed that timeline seamlessly! They took our preferences into account, but we let them run the show and they were so fun and very professional! We also rented the selfie station from them and that was the highlight of the night for many of our guests. I loved that they were able to send themselves their pictures/videos/boomerangs right away, but my husband and I also received a link to everything from the photo booth and we spent the next morning crying and laughing over all the pictures and videos. Our guests raved about their experience from pre-ceremony through the end of the reception. We could not have had such an epic night without Cavo Entertainment. Do not hesitate to hire them for your event, you will not regret it!

handle the timeline and announcements and would help us guide the days activities. We chose them without a doubt. Before the wedding, they gave us a checklist of items to consider for each stage of the wedding and reception, along with music options. I’m truly grateful for that guide because there are some things I completely forgot about. On the day of, they were on time and prepared for anything. They are also so very sweet. We appreciate everything they did for us. Don’t hesitate to give them a try. They are wonderful.

Will forever recommend Cavo Entertainment to everyone having a wedding! They are AMAZING!! 10/10!!!!

up to the dancing portion of the party, the music was such a hit. Our guests had so much fun. They went above and beyond with us and made our father-daughter special by providing the mashup music for our surprise choreographed dance between my dad & me! We had the BEST NIGHT of our lives! I highly recommend them. Thank you, DJ Cavo Entertainment! 🤍

and beyond what we thought! We loved getting our photos from the night to immediately take home! We didn't have to worry about anything with them and their set up was beautiful! We loved that they would play the explicit music we wanted that was a big deal for us! The cold sparklers turn out beautiful! They Comunidad with all of our vendors day of to approve any adjustments or changes and we didn't have to worry about a thing! Would HIGHLY recommend for a someone looking for help that doesn't have a full wedding coordinator!
We took time over our 13-month engagement to very carefully pick our vendors, and we could not be more happy that we chose Cavo Entertainment for our wedding day. Darren and Claudi...
a are such a GREAT team! Our guests thought it was so neat that they were a husband-and-wife-duo. Darren and Claudia were both professional and personable--not only in our communication with them before the wedding day, but also during our ceremony and reception. There were no moments during the ceremony or reception that felt "awkward," as it tends to go at weddings. Due to their detailed preparation, seasoned experience, seamless music transitions, beautiful lighting choices, professional Emceeing skills, and connection with our guests, our wedding was the beautiful, intentional, personal, and unique celebration that we wanted it to be. I was told that the words that are shared and the music that is played would be the heartbeat of our wedding. It couldn't be more true. Darren and Claudia helped us plan and execute our dream wedding timeline and script. We are incredibly grateful for the two of them, and we highly recommend their business!

it was obvious they were meticulous about the details and provided us an awesome workbook to help us understand the structure of the day and select music that was important to us. My husband and I had a difficult time coming up with songs that everyone would enjoy but they provided ample suggestions and recommendations.
Cavo also provided uplighting and a gobo display of our monogram for our wedding. They did an incredible job with both and our venue looked spectacular!
There were a couple requested songs that were missed but honestly the day moved so quickly there just may not have been time, especially with the requests submitted by our guests.
Darren and Claudia were fabulous to work with and we had so much fun! The conga line Darren let my uncle and bridal party start was hilarious and got nearly everyone out on the dance floor. Thank you Cavo for a fun day and helping us stay organized and on task during the chaos! 🤗🌟
Definitely recommend checking in with Cavo for your next event!
Darren was amazing! I was the MOH and needed him to play an audio clip for me during my speech and everything went off without a hitch. Also, probably the best Playlist I've heard ...

ce when we first met met them at the venue we knew they brought their A game. Darren really kept the crowd engaged and had some really creative ideas that he would slip up and ask if we were ok with and it really made for an enjoyable night. We had dancers from toddlers to teenagers to seniors and everyone was up and dancing throughout the night. We really appreciated the attention to detail to keep the kiddos happy all night long. If you are considering using Cavo, go ahead and pull the trigger
Darren and Claudia, Cavo Entertainment, absolutely made our wedding day special. Even before the actual wedding day, their responsiveness, professionalism, and service are complete...
ly unmatched! Some of my new family members on my wife's side only speak Spanish, and Claudia was able to translate announcements and other key details so everyone knew what was going on. Also, get the photo booth; it was a huge hit! The day of, the Cavo team arrived on site early, dressed to kill and ready to work. I really appreciated their flexibility as they had already finished setting up equipment in one area and were able to adjust on the fly because of weather. They are also great at coordinating with other vendors and keeping the team and timeline on track, but adaptable to adjust it on the fly as well. Their equipment is professional, the lighting was great, and Darren really does a great job reading a crowd/vibe and keeping everyone engaged and having a good time. I absolutely give Cavo my entertainment my highest recommendation. Thanks Darren and Claudia for making our wedding day one to remember!

now what to do and when to do it. They implemented everything talked about in our meetings down to the smallest detail, not to mention help us organize everything in a workbook which was then turned into a very detailed timeline. He also paid attention to when the crowd wasn’t feeling certain songs and adjusted as needed very quickly to keep everyone’s energy up. We would recommend them to anyone and everyone!

mail us an expansive guide to help us figure out our plans for the flow and music of our special day. They were absolutely lovely to work with through out the planning process and day-of the party, we had an incredible time. I, as the bride, don't think I stopped dancing for one minute. The music was amazing. And Claudia even grabbed one of our disposable cameras to make sure we had plenty of amazing pics of the dancing guests. I highly recommend them for celebration — they are, by far, the best!

Cavo Entertainment provided DJ services for my son's wedding two days ago. My son and new daughter-in-law chose Cavo Entertainment because they thought that they would do a good j...
ob. Well...they were right! Actually, Darren and Claudia of Cavo Entertainment were wonderful! I'm a musician and record producer, and I've been in the professional audio business for many years. As such, I'm a bit "picky" about sound. As soon as I saw the pro-level QSC loudspeakers getting unloaded, I was convinced that Cavo Entertainment was going to get the job done well. And that's an understatement. They provided separate audio systems for the ceremony and the reception, and they arrived several hours before the wedding to set up, and to make sure that everything was right with both systems. In addition, they brought great lighting and even a Photo Booth (very fun and appreciated by the wedding guests) for the reception. During the ceremony, I played guitar and sang a song. Prior to the wedding, I asked Darren if he could provide a microphone on a boom stand for my guitar as well as another microphone on a boom stand for my vocal. Not only did he do that, but at my request, he even provided a touch of reverb for my vocal. It all sounded great. With the lavalier mics that Cavo Entertainment provided, everyone clearly heard the officiant as well as the bride and groom when they gave their vows. At the reception, the sound and lights were perfect, and Darren did a great job as DJ. And he was a very entertaining emcee! At both the ceremony and the reception, the music was played exactly as the bride and groom had specified, and it all sounded great. Claudia handled the Photo Booth during the reception, and the guests had a ball, wearing different hats and disguises for the "portraits" that they all got to keep. Both Claudia and Darren obviously love what they do because they both kept a smile on their faces and remained friendly and professional throughout the setup, the wedding itself, and final teardown after the event was over, despite it being an outdoor wedding in 90 degree heat! I know that the bride and groom were delighted with Cavo Entertainment's services, and my wife and I were too. I would definitely recommend Cavo Entertainment for any wedding, private party, or corporate event.
They are absolutely amazing!! We throw our wedding together in literally three weeks and if we wouldn’t have had Cavo Entertainment it would have been a mess!! They were so patient...
and kind and even helped with my bustle. They tried to keep us on track and when they noticed guest were leaving they made sure we had everyone from pictures of the important things like bouquet toss and last dance. They really made the night so amazing. I would book 3000 times over, we were so blessed to have them. If you’re looking for a DJ, these are the people ❤️

We were so grateful Cavo Entertainment was part of our amazing wedding day! I would definitely recommend them to anyone!

laudia were super organized. From the moment we first contacted them, we knew they were different from other DJs we interviewed. My husband and I felt so completely at ease that we knew right away we had to hire them to be our entertainment team. They were always available to answer any questions we had. They talked us through the whole planning process and provided us with a super detailed timeline for our special day. From the beginning of our ceremony right up to the end of our reception, they took the pressure of us looking at our watch to keep all the special moments in place. We had tons of positive feedback from our guests. Everyone had a great time dancing. We received several videos from our guests of everyone at one time or another dancing on the dance floor and having a great time. Darren and Claudia's experience with weddings made us a very happy couple on our wedding day.
Thank you Cavo Entertainment!

th more than enough time to set-up and were professional from start to finish. The Cavo Entertainment team created a spectacular atmosphere and the guests raved about the uplighting. Darren (DJ) did a great job Emceeing throughout the evening and kept the event flowing smoothly. And, of course, the music was great! Cavo Entertainment also provided photo booth services which was a huge hit at the party. The guests didn't need to share photo prints because Claudia made duplicates for everyone in the photo! I would highly recommend using Cavo Entertainment for your upcoming wedding or special event.
