Best DJ's in NC! Steffan was an amazing DJ for my wedding on 10.10.2021. As a Cuban-Brazilian Bride marrying into an Ecuadorian family one can only imagine that a good DJ was a must. Steffan out did himself, and really kept the partying going. ...
He played everything from salsa, merengue, todays top hits, country to even Samba,Brazil music.
I recommend Steffan and his team to every wedding in NC. Best DJ's!
Thank you again so so much!

Steffen Soto was beyond amazing. He’s great at communication, always reaching back to us in a timely matter and let us know right away what we should expect from him and what was expected of us. Which was very helpful when we weren’t sure at al...
l! The music selection was fantastic, he was very flexible and worked with us when things didn’t go as planned, and was overall friendly and helpful. We even had the pleasure of having Mrs. Soto as his assistant, who went out of her way to help my wife with her veil and dress when taking pictures. It was the best day of lives and Soto Entertainment helped it be that. I very highly recommend!
Steffen was awesome! We loved his chill personality and he understood what we wanted right away. He even created a custom first dance mix for us. We also loved that he was bilingual and understood our need to party!

Sotos Entertainment is awesome! We spoke with Steffen during the planning process and he went over every single detail with us before the big day. Steffen & Lisvette were our DJ and they were already familiar with the location we picked and kne...
w exactly where & how to set up when we shared the floor plan and ceremony plan. He understood our ask of music and played requests, our guest stayed out on the dance floor the entire night. I’m originally from Tampa, FL and he lived there as well so when I asked for more Tampa/Miami style music he knew exactly what I meant. Sotos Entertainment is a great choice for a DJ at your event.
Outstanding! We could not have selected a more perfect DJ for our wedding! Steffen & Lisvette went above and beyond to accommodate all of our requests including a last minute change to our venue which was located out of state. They took full ch...
arge of the party and kept it going throughout the evening completely eliminating any stress throughout our ceremony and reception. Steffan was an excellent MC, the music was pumping, the whole vibe was immaculate and our guests are still raving about the fantastic time they had on the dance floor. We were so thankful to sit back, relax, dance and party and know that our wedding was in the best hands possible. I would recommend DJ soto to ANYONE looking for superior service for any event. Thank you so much Steffen & Lisvette!!!
I'm beyond thankful that I found Steffen to DJ our wedding! He made the entire process super easy and our wedding day even better. We were looking for a DJ that spoke both English and Spanish to cater properly to our crowd and Steffen came high...
ly recommended. Since our wedding, we've had so many guests tell us how much they loved our DJ! I'll forever recommend Steffen to everyone I meet!
Sotos Entertainment was AMAZING! We had booked them pre-covid, and during covid they were very responsive and worked with me using zoom and email. He noted all of my requests and was very detailed.
At the ceremony they were so well prepared ...
and jumped right into it! They worked with our videographer to get everyone mic'd up.
The reception was a BLAST! We had a mixture of karaoke, pre requested music and requests from the crowd. We had people dancing constantly and truly made it a fun event. Especially when you get a dj who will break dance for the crowd and start a break dance competition!
If I ever throw an event like this again, I am definitely booking Soto!
Wonderful team, 10/10 reccomend!!!
DJ Steffen and his crew did an amazing job at our wedding reception! He was very professional and made sure everything went as smoothly as possible. We had a few changes, and he made the transitions as seamless as possible. He was very responsi...
ve and was in communication with us up until the day of the reception. I will definitley be using Soto's Entertainment for any other DJ/Music needs in the future and cannot recommend them enough!!! THANK YOU DJ STEFFEN AND CREW!
Steffen and his wife Lisvette were wonderful! We couldn't have asked for a better DJ company. It was important for us to have a bilingual DJ that understood how to balance both English and Spanish songs to make sure all our guests felt included...
and they certainly delivered. We truly appreciated their willingness to travel to TN. They were prompt, organized, professional and made sure that our personalities were reflected in the music choices. Our guests had nothing but positive things to say about the entertainment provided by Steffen and we had a blast. We highly recommend them and would hire them again!
We hired Soto's Entertainment for our ceremony and reception and couldn't have been happier with our choice!! Working with them was super easy and they helped answer a lot of questions that I had about flow of the night and stayed on top of the...
ir communication. I changed my mind a million times by the actual wedding day from the time we first met and they were quick to send me their updated itinerary/flow of night/music selections to make sure everything was good. The night of the wedding, I forgot we even had half of an itinerary to fulfill (like my bouquet toss) and decided to end about 45 minutes early but I was still asked multiple times to make sure I was okay doing that and Todd quickly adjusted :)
Great team! Great music! Great vendor. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a DJ to cater to your specific desires for your special day!
This company was recommended to us by our reception venue- Holiday inn Charlotte center city and man I am glad they were! Steffen, the owner, and his assistant did a fantastic job keeping people on the dance floor! Steffen always came over to m...
y husband and I to make sure the music was good during cocktail and dinner hours. He was responsive on emails and he was very affordable. My husband and I only requested 3 songs, besides the entrance and first dance songs, to be played during the night other than that we allowed them to choose their own music choices for the night and they did a fantastic job! I feel like they did a good job in reading the people and the music choices they played. You will not regret booking him!
All I have to say is wow what a party! I hired Soto’s Entertainment for my wedding over a year before my wedding because a friend recommended them and they were recommended by one of my other vendors as well. They were awesome! When I first cal...
led I spoke to Steffen, (the owner) and he was up front and direct with all the information and pricing and answered all my questions. I immediately reserved. Then we met closer to the day of my wedding to plan and organize all the details. On the day of my wedding Steffen and his assistant were awesome and very professional! Steffen is a true professional DJ and MC. His voice was awesome every time he got on the mic! He sounded so good every time he made announcements! His music was perfect and kept everyone on the dance floor all night. Soto’s Entertainment DJ’s are very fun, professional and very organized. They are the best. I highly recommend them so don’t wait too long to hire them for your wedding!
This company was amazing! They did our wedding from the ceremony music to the reception and everything ran so smoothly. I would recommend them to anyone.
Truely a great experience with Mr.Soto. Very organized and fluent in both Spanish and English. Played contemporary Spanish and Latin music that got both old and young up and dancing for my 90 percent only Spanish speaking guests !!
Wow- where do I begin?! Steffen was amazing and very professional! He came with us on our final walkthrough in order to determine how to navigate the venue since it was his first time at our venue. Our wedding coordinator just loved how efficie...
nt and timely he was! His set up is great to throw the perfect party and that is exactly what we had! There was dancing all night long and Steffen mc’ed the night keeping our guests entertained and engaged! We wish we could relive our wedding over and over again because Steffen kept that dance floor going strong! We will definitely use Soto’s Entertainment again for future events- hands down.
Soto's Entertainment Dj's is the absolute best. My two sisters and I all got married within a year of each other, and Soto Entertainment DJed every one of our weddings. He does an absolute perfect job. He has great attention to detail. I couldn...
't be more happier with how my wedding went. I would highly recommend his company to anyone. Feel free to ask me anything about how the wedding went. I can't thank him enough on his services.
We picked Soto Entertainment to do our wedding last month. I will say hands down one of the best DJs around. Very reasonable with price and such a very down to earth individual. Everyone commented on how great our DJ was. I would definitely rec...
ommend Soto Entertainment to anyone who is looking for a great DJ.
Soto's Entertainment was so great and easy to work with from the moment we first made contact with them up until our wedding day! They provided services for both our ceremony and reception. Steffen was nice and professional every time we intera...
cted. He asked to meet with us prior to the wedding to go over the details, and it was obvious that he really cared about all of the details, even the small ones. I was very impressed with his communication during the planning process. Steffen and his staff knew how to read our wedding guests and played music that got people up and dancing! He was so energetic in his announcements. It seemed like all of our guests enjoyed the music and the party. Steffen worked well with our Director and helped to keep the reception running smoothly and on time with our schedule. Overall, we were so very pleased with the services offered by Soto's Entertainment DJ, and I would highly recommend them!
If you are looking for a professional DJ who is super easy to work with, look no further! Steffan was my DJ for my wedding and he was everything we were looking for in a DJ. He was so easy to communicate with and he was so open-minded to the id...
eas we had. I’m very detail oriented and Steffan sought to ensure that those details were taken care of. He is super kind and did not try to overtake the party. He read the crowd and let the music move the them, which I greatly appreciated. He was nothing less than fantastic!
We are SOOOO glad we chose Soto's for our DJ needs. Steffen was extremely helpful with setting everything up with us, and Cameron did a stellar job at DJing and keeping the celebration "hype" throughout the night. Cameron truly understood our p...
ersonalities and the atmosphere we wanted, and he most definitely made it happen. We HIGHLY recommend these guys!!
DJ Soto was amazing! Extremely professional and offered ideas when I had no clue what I was doing! (LOL) I would recommend to anyone!
DJ Soto (Steffen) and his team did an amazing job and kept the music going. Steffen and his team were very respectful, professional and fun. We're very glad we went with them for our wedding. The price is very reasonable and he'll take the time...
to listen to what you want and don't. Steffen will also offer his opinions if you want, which can be helpful because he has plenty of experience. He also offers additional services/options such as monograms, uplights, party lights etc. if you need it. Steffen is very accommodating. Add the shoe game if you have some time for it. Our guests enjoyed it and thought it was funny. Steffen can also run your wedding in English or Spanish.
We used Soto's Entertainment for our daughter's wedding this past Saturday. Steffen (the owner) is so experienced and knowledgeable, he actually managed us! He helped us get our timeline for the reception in perfect order, had tons of song sug...
gestions for both the ceremony and reception, and best of all, kept everyone on the dance floor the entire evening! He is so flexible that he even adapted the songs played to the vibe of what was going on during the reception. He was very willing to travel a good distance for our wedding. Truly, if you are looking for the best, look no further!
Steffen did an amazing job of setting the mood for our reception dinner and getting the party started when the time was appropriate! The dance floor was jumping and everyone had a blast! The sound and quality of equipment used were a big factor...
when choosing our DJ and Steffen's team didn't disappoint. Steffen and his team take pride in their work and are very involved with tailoring the soundtrack of your wedding. I highly recommend their services!!!
Soto's entertainment was amazing from the second that we booked them, all the way up until our wedding day. They met with us twice before our wedding day to talk about our vision for our music. They have several online forms and lists of music ...
to choose from for your event. They also were more then willing to play any music of our choice, even if it was not on their list. They were very accommodating, and super affordable. We had Christian as our DJ at our wedding, and he was so professional. He showed up in a tux several hours before our event to make sure he set all of the equipment up. Chrsitian kept our guests on the dance floor all the way up until our last song. We were so excited and surprised to see almost everyone of our guests on the dance floor having such a great time! Our guests keep talking about how they had so much fun and loved the music, and the way that each song went well with the next song. We would 100% recommend DJ Soto for any of your DJ entertainment needs!!
We want to give a big thanks to Steffen (Owner) and Christian (MC & DJ). They were very professional and patient with us. Picking songs that we wanted to play in our wedding was harder than we thought but thanks to them we got through it and th...
e day of our wedding everything was perfect. I also liked that Christian would make sure we had water in our hands as we were transitioning from ceremony to reception to pictures to everything. The set up was perfectly done and we could of not asked for anything to be better because it was impeccable. THANK YOU!!
Couldn't be happier with our choice for a wedding DJ. Steffen Soto was amazing throughout the entire process - very organized, professional, reasonably priced, and fun! He did our ceremony and reception music along with Cameron - both were dres...
sed very nicely, in suits/tuxes. The ceremony went very smoothly and for the reception, we wanted to have everyone dancing, and they were all night! They did an awesome job playing some Spanish music for my Puerto Rican family, which everyone loved! He is also a very good communicator - always answers emails very promptly, which was important to me! We were pretty picky in choosing a DJ, and am so glad we found Soto's Entertainment!!!
Mr. Soto was AMAZING!! The #1 thing my husband and I wanted for our wedding was great music and a full dance floor, and the Sotos were able to provide that and more! He made us a beautiful monogram that shone on the dance floor, and he added cr...
eative touches like the anniversary dance (in which he played my grandparents' wedding song, and we were able to see them dance for the first time in years!!). He helped coordinate a special line dance that the wedding party surprised the audience with, and every song thereafter drew a crowd out to dance (literally!!). It was a magical night, and it couldn't have been possible without the Sotos' talent. There just isn't a better DJ out there!
Boy oh boy do we love Steffen!!!! He was our DJ for our 200 guest 90's houseparty themed wedding reception and he completely nailed it! From the rehearsal he was timely and made sure we had everything timed perfectly for the ceremony and recept...
ion introductions. He was flexible and open to last-minute changes, and then the day-of was on-time, perfectly set up, and gave us the party of a lifetime! From the moment we interviewed with him he was fun, charismatic, open to our theme and willing to work with some nontraditional requests. He was very responsive and timely with emails, calls, and texts, and even mailed us our monogram after our big day! The set up and uplighting were perfect and every song he played had the dance floor full! We can't thank him enough for being such a huge part of our special day! 10/10 highly recommend!
Steffen and his right hand man were perfect! His questionnaire to fill out is thorough. We even got to chat with him on the phone and he played everything we had mentioned, as well as stayed away from what we didn't want to hear. They had the c...
rowd dancing the whole entire night. Filled with energy and joy. They love what they do and it showed! Hire them in a heart beat!
My husband and I highly recommend Soto's Entertainment, both Steffen (owner) & Todd (DJ/MC at our Wedding) were fantastic - professional, responsive & very easy to work with. We received comments all night about how good the music was and how m...

We hired Soto's Entertainment for our wedding in October, and they were amazing. The owner, Steffen, was very professional, very accommodating, and really took the time with us before our wedding to make sure he knew what kind of music we prefe...
rred, and had a good handle on our reception timeline.
On the day of our wedding, Steffen made all of our guests feel very welcome and definitely kept the party going. We also utilized their lighting services, and the uplighting they have really made our reception venue beautiful. The dance floor looks so pretty in our pictures!
We would definitely recommend Soto's Entertainment for anyone who is planning their wedding. Our guests had a great time at our reception, and we owe a lot of the credit to this DJ company. Thank you!!
I thought Soto's Entertainment was very professional and did an excellent job at our wedding! Stephan, the owner was the one that was there and everything went smoothly. No sound mistakes, no song mistakes, GREAT song choices! I was very please...
d!! He was very nice and made us a CD of a few of the major songs, 1st dance, father daughter dance, mother son dance...etc. He was great!
This DJ service was recommended by the hotel & the bakery. We had a great experience meeting with the owner 3 times before the wedding. However, we never met the DJ who was booked for our wedding until the reception. I heard from a friend t...
hat he didn't play the processional music for the mother's, because he didn't know who they were. When we arrived at the reception, he pronounced our name incorrectly when he introduced us. He also mispronounced one of our honored guests names. Then he had sound problems with *awful* feedback noises. He was flustered and upset, but apologized profusely and tried to recover. We were not pleased. Our guests all complained about the feedback & poor sound quality. The owner happened to be working the reception next door, so he came over to help out. They told me, on one of my numerous trips up to the dj table to ask what was going on, that the hotel must have a problem with their wiring. Eventually, they worked out the sound issues. However, most of our requested songs were not played, we could not hear the announcements, and we were overall displeased. I emailed the owner with my list of issues and asked for him to provide some form of refund. He offered to meet with us in person, apologized profusely, and tried to explain everything that happened. We asked for a little less than half of our money back, and he did refund us promptly, with apologies. I think it was an unfortunate event, with an otherwise decent company.
They made us a compilation CD of all our wedding songs to have as a keepsake.;Be sure which DJ is doing your reception. We had a surprise switch. Also one DJ had a strong accent, so it made it difficult to understand at times...and my new name ...
sounded funny too.
I am good friends with him and his family. He was easy to work with, especially being rather far from me. He provided lists of music to choose from and if he didn't have it, he would get it. He also made a CD of the best songs from the wed...
ding (first dance, father/daughter, mother/son, cake cutting, flower toss, garter, last dance, plus a few of my special requests).;He was a little quieter than I expected, but at the same time, I didn't want him to be too overbearing. The one time I wish he would have spoken up was our last dance -- it was supposed to be both sets of parents and us. BUT, I can't complain -- his involvement was what I asked it to be
