We had the absolute pleasure of having Erick as the DJ for our wedding reception, and we cannot recommend him highly enough! From the very first interaction, Erick was professional, attentive, and genuinely excited to make our special day unforgettable.
On the big day, Erick exceeded every expectation. He read the room perfectly, seamlessly transitioning between songs to keep the energy high and the dance floor packed all night long. His playlist was spot-on, mixing our requests with his own incredible selections that had all our guests—young and old—dancing like there was no tomorrow.
Beyond their musical talent, Erick was a fantastic emcee, effortlessly guiding the flow of events and keeping everything on schedule while maintaining a fun and celebratory vibe. His attention to detail and ability to adapt to the moment truly set him apart.
We’ve had countless guests tell us that our reception was one of the most fun weddings they’ve ever attended, and a huge part of that is thanks to Erick. If you're looking for a DJ who will go above and beyond to make your event unforgettable, look no further. We are forever grateful for their incredible work and will treasure these memories for a lifetime!

Working with DJ Vestus (Erick) made wedding planning & the wedding day itself run so perfect & smooth! My wife and I never felt pressured or stressed when it came to the wedding planning & music selection because of Erick ! Very very great communication & he was always available via email / phone calls / text whenever we had a question or needed guidance. After our wedding, we received so much positive feedback from our guests about how nice and professional he was & not to mention the song selection ! He read the crowd perfectly & kept everyone on the dance floor. It was also a huge plus for us that he’s bilingual. When it was all said and done, he truly felt like part of the family ! I highly, highly recommend Dj Vestus !!

We hired DJ Vestus for our wedding, and he was absolutely amazing! He was professional, friendly, and so easy to work with. We ended up switching up the music style last minute, and he was incredibly accommodating—he made the change without any complaints and handled it flawlessly. He kept everything running on schedule and helped the day flow so smoothly. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our special day. Highly recommend DJ Vestus!

We worked with DJ Vestus (Erick leading up to the wedding, and Andres as our in-day DJ) and had an AMAZING experience. Erick was extremely helpful, funny and organized. He made everything leading up to the wedding an absolute breeze for us. Andres curated such a great vibe for our dancefloor. All of our guests joined the dancefloor for the majority of the evening, and I think that's largely in part due to the set-list Andres made for us.
Outside of the dancefloor, Andres killed the bridal entrance. We had 2 songs for wedding party and the bride, and he hit the transition between those two songs at a matching chord, which made me (a former classical musician) gasp at how clean it sounded.
Erick and Andres are very talented at what they do, so if you're looking for a DJ for your event or wedding I would HIGHLY recommend them!!

Erick was the DJ at my daughters wedding. He had great communication with the couple and ensured that the music at the reception was exactly how they wanted it. He was flexible and willing to adjust his times for cocktail hour. He displayed professionalism and was so kind in his interactions with everyone. His sound system was great and everyone had a wonderful time! The only negative is that he did not take into consideration guests song requests. The father of the bride requested him to play a couple different songs and he never did.

My wife and I found Erick through Tik Tok, and he did not disappoint. He was very professional and provided top tier communication through the entire process. We had multiple meetings to help with our expectations, using his website for our playlist and planning to make sure the day went smooth as possible. He worked amazingly with our other vendors and made it seem like they have all worked together for years even though they have just met.
I can truly say he is passionate in what he does, and it really shows on how well he was able to execute the day of our wedding. He was so invested on making sure the day was about us. I would never hesitate to recommend him for family members, friends or anyone looking for an excellent DJ!

Working with DJ Verstus was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!
DJ Vestus, Erick, is thoughtful, detailed orientated and organized. He uses a planning tool that kept us on track for planning, as well as schedules touch points to ensure planning continues to move forward.
DJ Vestus helped us with our ceremony - provided the microphones and worked with our officiant to make sure she was all set to go; He also played music for all of our occasions - including the prelude, ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and of course dancing portion. We heard all the songs we wanted to hear and gave him creative freedom and he executed it perfectly!
I would recommend working with DJ Vestus if you have the opportunity - he was great to partner with! Thanks again!!

DJ Vestus outdid himself, starting from the first time we met. He is very organized and always available to answer questions. He is very personable and takes the time to understand the wedding vibe. He made the process easy. The day of the wedding he killed it with the music. The floor was always filled with people on the dance floor. Definitely would recommend.

Our wedding truly would not have run so smoothly or been as fun as it was without DJ Vestus! He helped my husband and I plan everything and feel at ease early on in the planning process. He responded very quickly with any questions we had and was very accommodating to any requests we made. My husband and I come from two different cultures, and DJ Vestus was able to play music based on the vibe of the wedding night and who was on the dance floor. We had so many compliments at the end of the night and days after about how amazing the music was and how well our wedding day/night flowed. I highly recommend DJ Vestus for your wedding or any occasion that requires awesome music and an amazing atmosphere.

Erick is the best! He kept everyone on the dance the entire wedding! I would 100% recommend him he is super organized and made sure that each song we wanted to be played was played! We had a large bridal party and made sure to play the correct song for each couple! Such a great DJ and was always super flexible with the times we met with him via zoom.

DJ Vestus helped us create amazing memories during our wedding this year. When we first had our intro call with DJ Vestus, at the end of the call we looked at each other and said “I think we found our DJ”. Of course, we shopped around a bit as recommended but we kept coming back to DJ Vestus. He even told us to shop around to ensure we felt he was the right fit. Once we confirmed our partnership with DJ Vestus, it was a great planning experience from start to finish. We were able to be honest with him in what we were looking for and what we didn’t want to experience at our wedding. We appreciated his honesty and flexibility as we connected during each planning call. He provided all the necessary information as early in the planning process as possible so that we could know what to expect as we planned with him. Once the big day came, we saw all our planning come to life. Our guests loved the music and DJ vestus had everyone dancing all night. That was our goal, for everyone to get out of their seats and celebrate. DJ Vestus helped us do that. We absolutely recommend him and would work with him again in the future. We cannot imagine our wedding day without him as our DJ!

Words cannot describe how amazing Erick AKA DJ Vestus is!! He made our wedding day the best ever. He’s professional, timely, organized, and all around a great person. Not to mentioned absolutely talented at what he does. We had a small wedding, and yet he managed to create a party that kept people on the dance floor for FOUR HOURS. EVERYONE came up to me later asking about him and complimenting his performance. I thought I knew what to expect, and didn’t think much of how the music would be but WOW. I myself did not leave the dance floor. DJ Vestus also was great at reading the crowd and knowing exactly how they would respond to the music. There were so many songs and mixes I didn’t even think of, that he included that absolutely made the party. I couldn’t recommend anyone else more than him. If you’re still looking for a DJ STOP NOW and hire DJ Vestus!!!

Wow. Where do I even begin? I’ve been to many many weddings and the one thing I knew that I absolutely wanted for my wedding, was a great DJ. I can’t even begin to put in words how absolutely happy I am with DJ Vestus work. From day one meeting with him and him showing me his super organized and easy to use website, to our last meeting before the wedding, to wedding day, KILLED IT. DJ Vestus asked for a lot of my input but also did so much work on his end to create the best playlist for the night (cocktail hour, dinner, and party). I have to most importantly mention that my wedding was a “half white, half Latino” wedding and DJ Vestus was honest from the start to say how challenging it can be to keep both sides happy with the music. I wouldn’t even know that it’s a challenge because did a great job of playing all kinds of music seamlessly. I’m not exaggerating when I say the dance floor was packed and everyone danced until the very last song. I had many people tell me how great he was and they were so not ready for the night to end (I was not either). I had high expectations for DJ Vestus due to my best friend with great music taste recommending him, but he still went above and beyond my expectations. Not only the music was great but his great attitude and spirit that was definitely felt throughout the night anytime he would make any announcements (English and Spanish). Just wow. Another great thing he did for me was recommend a photographer (Kriztelle Halili) during one of our meetings. I am currently in love with the sneak peeks my photographer just sent. Thank you DJ Vestus for sending her my way! I could say so many more great things about DJ Vestus, I feel like I owe him my life for an amazing wedding night. Thank you a million times DJ Vestus!!!!

I was a guest at a recent wedding DJ Vestus was playing at and it was absolutely amazing! He kept the guest’s spirits high from the wedding party intro’s to the last song. He was able to connect with all guests as he spoke English and Spanish when needed. With that in mind, he was also able to transition songs from American and Mexican cultures very smoothly and effortlessly. His interpersonal and DJ skills were so great that most guests were dancing the entire night and left us wanting more! Thank you DJ Vestus for contributing to such a special day!

Working with DJ Vestus was the best experience I could ask for. He was super professional and made sure we touched base through the months to ensure everything was pulled together in time. Even with last minute changes, he was super responsive and made the changes easily. He made the wedding day so much easier with his amazing dj and my skills. He brought personality to the dance floor! Him being bilingual was also a huge help for my guests.
