Diego was our DJ/MC for our wedding in April 2017 at USC in Los Angeles. Prior to picking a dj, we knew that we wanted a someone who was bilingual (English/Spanish) and who understood the type of music we like. One of the main things we wanted for our wedding was a full dance floor and great music.
After our meeting with Diego, my husband and I felt confident that we picked the right DJ/MC for our wedding. He was cool, easy to talk to and totally got what we wanted. We gave him some "must play" songs, but for the most part trusted him to read our crowd. He also went over every name in our wedding party to make sure he had the correct pronunciation and accent. Diego even went so far as to help put together a mix for a surprise "Father/ Daughter" dance I did with my dad. He was organized and on top of the timeline and worked with our planner to make sure everything was in place in the weeks leading up to the wedding.
On our wedding he kept the dance floor overflowing, worked seamlessly with our surprise mariachi and usc marching band and made our night truly unforgettable.
Highly recommend him for your wedding/event!
Awesome music, made our wedding the party we wanted. Great service, highly recommend.
DJ Diego was one of our favourite vendors at our wedding. He was reliable and so chill to work with. Diego was amazing at setting the exact vibes we were hoping for during every part of the reception, from cocktail hour to dinner to the dance floor, and he somehow kept the party going all evening without a single lull. Guests came up to us throughout the night with glowing compliments for Diego. One of our guests who hates dancing and loves cake said Diego was so good that she missed the cake because she didn’t want to leave the dance floor. Something that also stood out to me was Diego’s thoughtfulness - I asked my sister to request Roses by Outkast, and my sister told me that Diego made sure to confirm that the bride was the one making the request before playing it (I guess it’s a diss track). Diego is the best wedding DJ we could have ever asked for. We’ve attended two weddings since our own, and at both, mutual guests commented that they wished Diego were the DJ (including a wedding over a year later). We wholeheartedly recommend Diego, and Hawaii is so incredibly lucky to have him!
Diego was the absolute best!! We had an amazing time dancing the night away on our big day, and he made sure everything went flawlessly. We had a zoom meeting a few days before our wedding to get to know him, and share a bit about our music styles/preference for the reception and he completely got our vibe down right away. Highly recommend him for any future bookings, definitely a must for a fun night!!
Diego was INCREDIBLE! He was super kind and actually listened to what we wanted. Given that our guest list was split 50/50 with Spanish and English speakers, Diego navigated MC-ing bilingually flawlessly! He even followed my special request to play "Tiburon" when the dance floor was poppin' and boy did the party get even more lit once it played! Would definitely recommend and would book again for other events!
Diego's ability to read the crowd and blend various music genres created an infectious atmosphere. His genuine passion for his work shined through as he interacted with the audience, ensuring everyone was having a blast.
Diego's worked with us to create an ideal play list catered to all musical tastes, blending classics and current hits flawlessly. His attention to detail and collaboration prior to the event showcased his commitment to making our night unforgettable.
The top-notch sound quality and lighting setup elevated the entire experience. DJ Diego Terry's talent, passion, and dedication are unparalleled. If you want a wedding DJ who transforms your special day into a non-stop dance party, DJ Diego is the ultimate choice. Our thanks to him for an amazing celebration!
We knew immediately that Diego would be the perfect DJ for our wedding day. From the very beginning, he was super communicative and responsive. Diego left no stone unturned when making efforts to get to know us and to understand our vision. The music, in all aspects of our wedding day, was really important to us, and Diego made sure that our vision came to life! He was patient, detail oriented, and a phenomenal listener. Diego ensured we kept in communication leading up to our big day. Then, the magic happened! Diego was essential in adding to the magic of our day and all things DJ related were flawless. He delivered on everything we asked for and more! Our favorite thing about Diego, aside from his warm personality, is that he read the room constantly throughout our wedding and made sure the music beautifully enhanced each part of the day. Our favorite part of our wedding day was being on the dance floor with our family and friends. Diego knew exactly what to play to keep the party going and get absolutely everyone onto the dance floor, including himself to get our crowd moving! Its 6 years later and our guests still talk about how much fun our reception was. We highly recommend Diego and are super grateful we were able to experience his talent first hand! Thank you, Diego! You are most definitely part of our most magical memory to date.
Diego was a fantastic DJ. He traveled to our location six hours away (note that we comped him for that time) in order to provide amazing music for our party. There was a little hiccup where our decorations came tumbling down, and during that Diego was a saving grace. He kept the energy up and distracted from that in the best way possible. He is highly communicative and receptive to our needs. He is great!
We hired Diego for our wedding last year and he was phenomenal! We met several times leading up to the day and went over everything, including the timeline as well as the vibe we were going for and everything was seamless. He was easy to communicate with and made sure we had songs in place for each activity and backups queued up just in case. Diego was very intuitive of the crowd and our guests, to this day, talk about how great the music was.
Got married 7 years ago. Seems just like yesterday. Diego did a great job! I heard from many of my guests that our wedding was one of the best they been to and diego was a big part of it. Thank you brother !
We had the pleasure of having Diego in our wedding and he was amazing! He is super organized and did exactly what we asked him to do. He played our favorite Persian songs at the right moment and brought everyone to the dance floor. We had a memorable night and we are so happy we hired Diego.
Diego, our wedding DJ, was an absolute game-changer! From keeping us on schedule to keeping the guests on their feet, his talent and energy were unmatched. We are still swooning over our wedding, and Diego played a huge role in making it unforgettable.
Diego's expertise in reading the crowd and playing the perfect songs at the right moments created an incredible atmosphere throughout the night. He seamlessly transitioned between genres and had everyone dancing from start to finish. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the music and how much fun they had.
We are so grateful to Diego for his professionalism, attention to detail, and ability to create magic on our special day. He truly went above and beyond to ensure that our wedding was a night to remember. Thank you, Diego, for making our dreams come true!
Diego was the perfect fit for our wedding.
I was picky on finding a dj that didn’t feel ‘tacky’ and overbearing. We didn’t have to explain much about the vibe we wanted for cocktail hour and he delivered. And then the whole night was amazing - never a dull moment. everyone ended up on the dance floor all night. We felt more than comfortable with him- and would work with him again in a heartbeat- a pleasure to work with.
Diego outreached me to provide a review as he started his own company. I was than happy to help write a review given the great experience we had with him. There are many things you’ll remember about your own wedding (e.g. the effort put into planning, the worry as some minor things go wrong and the epic time you had celebrating), but I never thought that our DJ would be one of the things we commonly reflect on. We selected the music, but Diego really brought it to life and made it a great event. His professionalism and energy will synergize with everything else at your wedding/event.
Review from my wedding a few years ago:
You can't really have a bad wedding DJ experience with VOX Djs. The company itself has a good standard template for everything. The general experience from the company is as follows:
1) You meet with their office manager, tell them about you and your significant other. They take down the data as you guys discuss.
2) You agree on a package/price.
3) You pick a couple of DJs from their online roster to interview.
4) You interview the DJs via phone or in person meet up pending location after their availability is confirmed.
5) Tell the office manager who you want.
6) You'll get automated emails to fill out surveys that include a timeline for the event and music selection (from their online library which is fairly extensive)
7) Meet up with the DJ a couple of weeks before the wedding
8) Have the wedding.
It's a good standard process. Now, if you pick DJ Diego with VOX...you can have a GREAT wedding experience. Diego followed all of the above and put in a variety of extra effort. About 4 months before the wedding, he helped us with creating a custom mix for our first dance. He got back to us with the mix within a week. 3 months before the wedding, we decided we wanted a different mix. We chatted with him briefly over email and he redid the mix for us again. A few weeks before the wedding, we met up at a coffee shop. He agreed to meet us half way as the VOX offices were far. During this session he went over all details that we submitted via their standard template and took notes on everything. He worked on pronunciation of everyone's names, timing of all music (down to the second of when various clips would play) and essentially scripted out the entire evening.
Diego showed up 30 mins early the day of to make the most of his set up time at the venue. He was dressed very professionally and understood how to manage the crowd (mix of older family and fun friends). He was courteous to everyone, made clear announcements to guide the guests throughout the venue, maintained energy all night and truly was the voice of the wedding.
Nothing is for certain when it comes to your big day, but Diego is excellent at preplanning and quick on his feet to fix problems and keep the proper emotions flowing with his DJing and Emcee skills. I without hesitation recommend Diego to anyone interested in VOX.
We hired Diego to DJ our wedding in 2017 in LA. He was fantastic. He took great care to understand the musical vibe we wanted at our event, contributed creative ideas on how to deliver on that vibe, and then he expertly executed on the musical timeline throughout the night. Don't hesitate to hire Diego.
Terry did a great job DJ'ing our wedding. He communicated with us, asked us what we liked (house music), and wasn't afraid to take request when the wedding party wanted to hear some Persian music. I was impressed by his range of music. Five Stars!
