From start to finish DJ Elio and Mike made this experience amazing. Elio has always been super responsive and the platform/ planning form they use was SO easy to use. Being able to upload songs into "must play/play if possible" really made sure we heard every single song we wanted to. They curated a perfect playlist and Mike's song transitions were stellar. Everyone kept raving about the music. Mike was fantastic and pulled the whole day together. We cannot thank them enough. I HIGHLY recommend using their services. We had 7 months to plan our wedding and they made it simple and easy.

Elio Nallbani
Owner
Hi there, welcome to my page. I am Elio Nallbani, a Wedding Entertainment professional. I own DJ Elio Entertainment. Over the past 10 years, I have been developing my skills as a DJ. Everyone at some point has seen a DJ perform, and has gathered some type of opinion of their performance. I remember the first time I witnessed someone truly DJ. It was one of my close friends that I grew up with. All I could remember was how amazing he was at the craft and how much skill it took to keep us all dancing! Since then I have been addicted to the art and helping couples plan the best entertainment!

If you're considering DJ Elio for your wedding, book him—you won't regret it! From the very beginning, Elio was incredibly organized, enthusiastic, and genuinely excited for us. He...
scheduled planning meetings well in advance, took the time to understand exactly the atmosphere we wanted, and made the entire process feel effortless.
We spent time curating playlists that reflected our style, and Elio took it from there. He perfectly read the room, seamlessly mixed our music, and kept the energy exactly where we wanted it all night long. Every transition felt natural, and the dance floor stayed packed.
Beyond his talent as a DJ, Elio brought the absolute best vibes. He was professional, personable, and truly invested in making our wedding day unforgettable. It felt like he cared just as much about our celebration as we did.
We couldn't have imagined a better DJ for our wedding on July 18. Thank you, Elio, for making our reception everything we hoped it would be and more!

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ! We hired DJ Elio for our October 2025 wedding and he was absolutely amazing. From our initial phone call, to our planning call, to the actua...
l wedding day - he was so organized, helpful, and talented. During planning, whenever we weren’t sure which song to choose or wanted his opinion, he was right there to guide us. On the day of the wedding, he checked in with us before key moments like the reception entrance, which took so much stress off our shoulders.
When it came to the music he played once the dance floor was opened, he nailed it! We had a mixed age crowd with lots of older family and not too many young people - and he chose and balanced the songs so well. I was literally on the dance floor all night!! We even had guests come up to us afterward saying how much they loved the music and that they thought I had personally chosen many of the songs because they fit us so well - when it was all Elio! We would 110% recommend him!

work with to pick a plan that worked for us, on top of being incredibly organized and responsive. DJ Andres was our DJ for our wedding day and I could not write enough about how incredible and talented he was. We had a very specific idea of what we wanted our night to look like with specific playlists/songs choices for each part of the night and DJ Andres took these suggestions and created a PHENOMENAL mix that had people raving about the music through cocktail hour, dinner, and on the dance floor. We are getting compliments from our guests days after our wedding about how amazing our music was and we attribute that all to DJ Andres! We are stilling talking between us about how much fun we had. Guests were in the dance floor all night long and he was really fantastic at reading the vibe of the room and chanting it up when necessary. I as the bride was on the dance floor for HOURS because I didn’t want to miss any of the fantastic mixes he was playing. We had friends of family of all ages out on the dance floor. We had a small wedding (less than 100) and the dance floor never felt dead, which is hard to do when the guest list is small. We felt he really took our ideas to heart and made our night such an incredible memory. We could not recommend DJ Andres more for people looking for a raving dance floor at their wedding or party!

DJ Elio is the GOAT. So many people asked me where I found him because his mixing is fire and he kept the dance floor bumping the WHOLE night. My husband and I are very passionate ...
and a little particular about music, and DJ Elio was super accommodating and totally understood our vision. He delivered beyond our expectations. He effortlessly mixed the crowd pleasers with our more esoteric music and knew exactly when to play them to keep the crowd dancing. Again, multiple people throughout the night and even days after were commenting on how good the music was. I hired DJ Elio for the ceremony as well and it all went so smoothly and exactly how we discussed and beyond. He is incredibly talented, communicative, and great vibes to be around. I would hire him again in a heartbeat! Cannot express how amazing he was and he made our wedding day run so smoothly. As a small thing but still very important, my family and friends have non-English names and he made sure to pronounce them all correctly and confidently during the wedding introduction. I recommend him wholeheartedly!! Lovely human and truly a professional.

Elio provided perfect ceremony sound, great cocktail hour tunes, and a beautifully lit dance floor, everything was perfect.

For a frame of reference, we needed everything from country, EDM, hip-hop, latin, 80's, rock and more mixed in during our reception. He was so easy to work with, listened to everything we wanted & executed the music flawlessly. My husband and I got so many compliments on our music all night long from tons of our guests, which was truly unexpected! I would highly recommend booking your wedding with DJ Andres!

eginning, Elio was incredibly easy to work with—organized, responsive, and always positive. He had a great system for planning out the key moments of our ceremony and reception, which helped everything run smoothly and made us feel confident going into the big day. He had also worked at our venue before, so was able to talk us through what to expect for the setup and the flow of the evening.
Elio made sure to incorporate all the little extras we had hoped for, including a heartfelt anniversary dance, an energetic photo dash, and a large group photo that included all of our loved ones. He worked well with our photographer in coordinating each of these moments, pulling it off without a hitch and making it fun! His attention to detail and willingness to accommodate our requests meant so much to us, especially when he incorporated some fun word-play with some of our favorite songs.
In addition to being our DJ, Elio and his wife, Sedina, also provided our photo booth. It was a huge hit with our guests and we loved getting copies of each of the photos both digitally and in our photo guestbook, with Sedina also helped to oversee. The booth offered high-quality prints that made for great keepsakes, and there were several backdrop options that we were able to choose from. Sedina was wonderful with guests—helping them pose, offering tips, and counting down for the perfect shot.
We truly appreciated Elio’s professionalism, calm presence, and the genuine care he put into helping us celebrate. We’re so glad we had him and Sedina as part of our vendor team, and we highly recommend them to any couple looking for a reliable, talented, and thoughtful team for their wedding day.

Elio DJ’ed our wedding on 6/13/25, and we can’t say enough good things about him and his work. His attention to detail, execution, and overall enthusiasm for his work was clear fro...
m start to finish.
The planning process was made simple by his detailed questionnaire that covered wedding proceedings and our personal music taste, among other key wedding elements. I believe we met twice, for about an hour each, in which we ironed out some details like procession songs, dance timing, music choices for cocktail hour and reception, etc.
On the day of, Elio was excellent. Multiple guests approached us saying Elio was the best wedding DJ they’d seen, and how great our music was. He was exceptional reading the room and keeping the party going. We decided to leave the booth open to requests, and were confident giving him discretion on whether he thought they matched our style.
As a bonus, Elio was super fun to work with. He genuinely enjoys his work, and it was clear seeing him work the table at our wedding. He’s funny, charismatic, and easy to work with. We can’t recommend him enough!

DJ Andres was our DJ for the day and he was great! After meeting with him and going over what we wanted, he more than delivered! There was never a time that the dance floor was empty. Our guests had the best time dancing and singing along to all the songs Andres played.
We couldn't be happier with our choice and would recommend DJ Elio Entertainment to anyone!

Literally not a single negative thing to say about him, we will be recommending him to every single couple we know!!!

ugh we had just met that day (my mom is a professional wedding planner so she managed all vendors) we immediately clicked, and I felt like he knew me and knew our friends. He understood the kind of vibe we were going for, was completely on board, and as a result our dance floor was packed the whole night. I heard from multiple guests that it was the best wedding they had ever been to. Not to mention his lovely wife ran the Photo Booth, which may have been a bigger hit than the music. Elio went above and beyond in many ways to ensure my husband and I had an unforgettable night, and we couldn’t be more grateful. If you want to give your guests the best possible experience at your wedding, DJ Elio is the way to go.

We ended up dancing way more than we thought we would! Elio really read the room and played all the right songs that got everyone in the mood. At one point, he even came over and encouraged us to hit the dance floor for the last few songs. I was a bit stressed about cleanup, but those few minutes of dancing really helped me get back in the moment and enjoy the night.
He also provided our photo booth which was a huge hit! Our guests loved it, and the attendant was great. We used the photos for our guest book, and flipping through all the messages and pics when we got home was so much fun. Elio sent us a link to all the photos afterward, which was a nice bonus! So fun to look through these while we wait for our professional photos.
Thanks, Elio, for being such an awesome part of our wedding! We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ!!

I cannot thank him enough for making my wedding exactly how I envisioned and more! Highly, highly recommend!!

as incredibly attentive, keeping us in the loop on every detail and making sure the night was exactly how we envisioned it. His professionalism, insight, and commitment to understanding our style and preferences made the entire process stress-free and enjoyable. On top of being an amazing DJ, he’s also just lovely all around - taking photos for guests, chatting with us throughout the night - we loved having him at our wedding.
On our big day, Elio absolutely nailed it. The dance floor was packed from the first song to the last. All of our guests kept telling us it was the best wedding dance floor they had seen in years, and even our other vendors were raving about how amazing he was. Elio has a gift for reading the crowd and playing the perfect songs to keep the energy high. No one wanted the night to end!
If you’re looking for a DJ who can create an unforgettable atmosphere and take your event to the next level, don’t hesitate to book DJ Elio. We couldn’t be happier, and we recommend him wholeheartedly.

Elio made our wedding day better than we could've ever imagined. He made the entire process so effortless and easy. We felt like he really listened to our requests during the plann...
ing sessions, and made incredible suggestions that made our wedding the best night of our lives. Meeting with him prior to the wedding made us even more excited for the big day, as we knew from the first meeting that we could count on him to meticulously cultivate a night that truly honored who we were as a couple.
We received so much feedback from family and friends that the music he played was the best they've ever had during a wedding. He made the night feel like a party, and perfectly matched each song/transition to the vibe of the group. The night of the wedding he effortlessly incorporated additional song requests that we had, and didn't sweat when we reached out the morning of to make last minute changes.
When we look back on our wedding, we will forever remember the hours we got to spend dancing with our loved ones, and Elio curated that entire experience. He is SO incredibly talented, and we're confident that he can transform anyone's dreams for their wedding into a reality.
We cannot highly recommend him enough, and could write 10 more reviews that still wouldn't do his talent justice. We can say with 100% confidence that you can trust him to make your special day better than you ever imagined. We wish we could have 100 more weddings with him just to experience that night all over again. Thanks Elio for making our wedding the most amazing night of our lives!

DJ Elio was amazing, but it wasn't just the night of that makes him a great DJ, but what he does in preparation. DJ Elio is clearly very experienced working with weddings as the wh...
ole ceremony went without a hitch. Ahead of time, he sent us forms to fill out so we can tell him exactly what song to play, where to cut it, and if the song needs to be extended, he can even loop it. He included options to fill in for Wedding Party entry, first dance, etc. Every little detail was considered, he really did all the thinking for us. Mics worked perfectly, sound was crisp. I think for the ceremony, the best DJ is the one you don't even notice or need to talk to, so you can focus on getting married, and that's what DJ Elio was. He did exactly what he needed to do during the most crucial moment of the night, and he was able to function autonomously.
As for the most important part, the dancing, he killed it. All of our favorite songs were played and he made sure we were on the dance floor before playing our favorites. After the wedding, our guests were still raving about the clever transitions and awesome music. I'd like to think it's my music taste that everyone loved, but really it's because DJ Elio kept a pulse on what people on the floor were vibing with at the moment, and ran with that.
Last but not least, DJ Elio's better half, Sedina, was in charge of our photo booth. All of our guests loved using the photobooth and the pictures came out beautifully. Sedina was very patient with all of our guests, and made sure everyone was able to take a photo!
P.S. There was one AMAZING part of the night where he found the perfect time to play "Welcome to the Black Parade" and 50 people were swaying arm in arm before going crazy when the rock part started, then straight into "Love Story" by Taylor swift. Everyone was SCREAMING the lyrics from the top of their lungs. Truly a core memory.

The reception set was absolutely fire - our dance floor stayed active and robust the entire evening due to Elio’s great song selection and impeccable transitions.
