We booked URE in NYC before Covid and ended up having our wedding postponed multiple times. We ended up moving our wedding to California and URE was accommodating and worked with us throughout the process. We were so happy to have Leo and his t...
eam to DJ at our wedding reception. Leo is very organized and kept everything moving according to our timeline. We received great feedback from our guests and the music was exactly how we envisioned. URE has a great online system to plan the day and make playlists of must have songs. Leo traveled across the country for us and made sure the equipment and quality was of the highest standard. We definitely recommend working with URE since they have a long track record of successful weddings and Leo will work tirelessly to make sure your event goes according to your vision.

After the incredibly professional and welcoming meetings we had from 2020-2022 due to our wedding being postponed twice because of COVID, we had very high hopes for the URE DJ at our wedding. Unfortunately, it fell short of what we were expecti...
ng. Music to one side, there were also several other mishaps which frankly we deemed pretty appalling after so many conversations and forms. - Very little coordination in the two weeks/days leading up to the wedding. Myself, day of planner and the venue were chasing them for missing information which wasn't given until the day before. - DJ announced my first name incorrectly when introducing the first dance and again at the end of the first dance (people screamed the correct name) - DJ said groom's last name, and thus my new last name, incorrectly when saying "Mr. and Mrs." - DJ got my mother's name wrong when she entered the room - The mother of the groom entered with her eldest son, my husband's brother, and the DJ announced them as 'the groom's parents." My husband's father is deceased so this was particularly insensitive. When we spoke with URE in the weeks before the wedding, they said the DJ would confirm all details before we entered the room. This was not done and his lack of planning showed. As a wedding DJ/MC, I would think the names of the bride/groom and the parents are pretty important to know correctly. We have asked the videographer to cut all the announcements from our video because of this, which is really disappointing to have to do. Additionally, the wrong part of our welcome song was played when we entered, meaning that it was just instrumental music, no words. Also of note, several of the songs which were on the 'must play' list were not in fact played. We understand they were probably requests coming in but really feel the bride and grooms must plays should have taken priority. If there was an area of the form to note this we must have missed it but would assume this should be standard protocol. When the coordinator came over at the end to sign the form, they told us what we had tipped already and then noted an area for additional tip, which shocked us bit by given all the missteps. While nothing can be done now to rectify this, I normally don't give reviews but emailed them over 6 weeks ago for at least an apology to which they have yet to reply to. We were very excited about URE and were really let down.

We found URE events in early 2019 as we planned for our 2020 wedding. Our first phone appointment was with Elena. She was extremely patient as we asked her so many questions about what they do and how it fits into our vision. We then went to t...
he URE office and had a meeting with Leo. He offered us drinks upon arrival and went through his plans with us. We were having a multi-culture wedding and being able to mix in all types of music was critical to keeping both families, and all people on the dance floor. From the very first sample set Leo demonstrated for us, we knew he was the DJ we needed. He also let us mix up some of our own songs as he taught us how to use his mixing board and how to use the beats per minute to mix songs. As everyone knows, Covid struck and our event was moved FOUR times. I can say that every time we informed Elena and Leo about the date change, they were more than accommodating and moved the date for us. The convenience of allowing us a downpayment followed by small monthly installments made paying for the event way less stressful too. We FINALLY had our event a two weeks ago and I can say that it was the most talked about wedding that we know of, ever! Every single person that gave us feedback about our big day did not fail to mention how GREAT the music selections were. Leo played everything for everyone to keep the dance floor packed all night long. From 70s disco, to early 90s dance, to 80s rock and roll, to soca, reggae, latin, you name it, it was played and it was mixed together so perfectly you would never know he the music genre was changing. Leo's energy was contagious and his commitment to us as the couple was beyond evident from everyone around. He led some great dances on the floor, but did not overdue any line dancing and stuff as he wanted people to really keep going on their own. He did a "feeler" song after our first slow dance, and everyone, I mean EVERYONE stayed on the floor. So long that the event planner said people were supposed to order their entree but we will just let them dance for now. They never wanted to leave the floor until Leo asked them to put their order in. Then, they immediately returned to the floor. The venue was about 45 minutes behind in starting the reception and gave us the time back at the end. Leo could have easily packed it in a midnight as the day turned into Monday, but instead he kept the party going until 1am since he knew we started late. His lighting is legit and made our dance floor pop. We are so thankful to have met Leo and Elena. We are no longer just customers of Leo's, but his good friends as well. It is hard to come by someone so genuinely nice these days. THANK YOU, LEO for making our event extra special and the talk of NYC!

Your DJ search is over and you should book URE events immediately and without hesitation. The owner of the company and main DJ, Leo, made the whole process special and personal for us from the day we hired URE through end of the event. As per t...
he music, as he demonstrated at his studio when we first met, Leo and his team are highly skilled technical DJs who know how to mix any genre to carry a crowd. In the months leading up to the event, Leo helped customize the entire musical experience for us to create a vibe for the evening in our own taste for our particular guests. The company provides an online portal where you can add a certain amount of music, which he will work off to plan the perfect set for your night. Even if you don’t want to choose your own songs, Leo will know how to plan the music for your taste and crowd to keep your guests dancing. We met with him on several occasions to discuss the wedding set, sample songs, and choose the music for each part of the night. Leo and his assistant executed the evening exactly as planned with absolutely flawless mixing, song selection and flow which kept the dance floor packed. Not once did we have to request a song on our list, he played everything we wanted and supplemented it perfectly with his own selections. Leo is also a great MC who knows how to work a room with enthusiasm. Most of all though, Leo’s passion for his job is remarkable and he is an example for other vendors on how to treat a client. We can honestly say that we felt like he was fully invested in making our wedding a special experience from the start with his positive energy and commitment to detail and he genuinely cares about his clients. Beyond the personalized experience, Leo is also a complete professional. You can trust URE will come through on everything promised. They are extremely organized down to every detail, stick to schedules and phone calls, and follow up consistently before the event, while coming fully prepared the day of. To sum it up, with Leo and URE you not only get a top tier professional DJ who will keep everyone dancing but a friend who you know won’t let you down. Worth every penny.

spoke with Leo, set up an appointment the same weekend and the rest as they say is history. Throughout the whole planning process Leo was very professional and courteous. He walked us through the ure portal where we were able to create a wedding time line and a playlist. As the big day was approaching Leo would keep us on track by sending out reminders of things we needed to complete on the portal. He was also available in the evening for telephone conferences. A week before the wedding he scheduled a final walkthrough of the portal at 9pm to accommodate us. He reviewed all the items we needed to complete and we were ready to go. The day of the wedding our photographer Elena arrived promptly at 11. She was very helpful with positioning me for my pictures. She helped me with my dress, shoes and veil as if she was a member of my bridal party. This put me at ease with her and the pictures turned out great because of it. Leo also surprised us by upgrading the photobooth to their top of the line model. All the guest enjoyed themselves immensely. Almost a month later we are still getting compliments about the best Thanksgiving party. Thank you Leo and Elena and the Ure events team. Diana & Sasha

He helped us figure things out and ensure that everything would be organized. Our Dj, wedding planner, master of ceremony, event coordinator, friend and brother! Thank you thank you thank you! Best investment we could have made! We love you! Ps. We are Dominican, it is so difficult to find a dj who is professional and understands our culture. URE rocked it out for us!

and sustained the mood for every moment of our wedding with appropriate cocktail music, dinner music, cake-cutting music and then, of course, dance music. He kept the party going with non-stop dancing. Everyone complimented us for picking Leo. Leo was hard working and dedicated to my husband and I vision for our wedding. His staff is equally dedicated, they are always willing to help and is always warm.

He is multi-tasking all the time and his reviews show for that.

URE Events brought more than what we expected. Leo (the owner) is respectful, kind, and makes you feel like family. Him and his staff made our wedding unforgettable. If I could rate more than 5 stars, I would. Here's a more in depth rating. Pu...
nctuality: 5 / 5 Even before the wedding, Leo will make sure he got everything written down, saved, memorized so that when it's time for the event, you'llbe less stressed. Months before the wedding he'll touch base with you regarding songs or whatever services you took. During the event, he'll be there with his staff early (whatever time agreed upon) and make sure everything is setup right and proper for the event. Price: 4.5 / 5 URE Events is not the cheapest nor the most expensive service you can get, but why hire cheap? It's your wedding and you want the best for your buck. URE provided a service beyond our expectations and our wedding was definitely a day to remember. If you're on a budget, he'll even try and work with you the best he can. Equipment/Staff: 5 / 5 We got the intelligent lights along with the other lights and his setup was awesome. His equipment was top notch and with the lights and mood, they made our wedding POP even more. Our wedding was like a music video. His staff was very nice and professional. They rocked the event. Professionalism: 5 / 5 Even before choosing URE Events, He made us feel welcome, provided a small example of how our wedding is going to be like, and treated as if we're becoming a part of his URE family. He takes his work seriously and only provide services with high standards. He treats his company like it's his most precious thing in the world so you know you're wedding is going to be amazing. Overall: 5 / 5 URE Events is what you need for your wedding. They provide services with the highest quality and they go above and beyond. During our ceremony, the music fit so perfectly that I cried more than what I expected. The music, the mood, and the moment was so overwhelming. During cocktail hour, they had tasteful and elegant music setting the right tone for the reception. Reception was unbelievable. Everyone was on the floor dancing, music was amazing and set to how we like it from 80s rock to House music to 90s to recent hits. You'll never be bored. Not only did they make everything how we like it, Leo even made sure we had what we need (drinks, food, time to eat, time to talk to our guests, etc.) We all had such a good time that days after the wedding, our bodies were aching from dancing all night. You won't be disappointed if you choose URE Events. Leo, we love you and thank so much for being there for us. You and the URE Staff are the best. We wish you the best and a bright future for the URE Family. -Mr. and Mrs. Wijaelito Duaqui

In regards to the change of management, the “mix ups” that happened were under previous management; this is one of the reasons we had to change management in the first place. We credited you for their mistakes as well. The most pivotal part of the success of URE Events are our clients, therefore we do not compromise our level of excellence. URE always delivers, regardless who is on the team. We only hire individuals who meet and exceed our expectations. When this change occurred, all of our clients were notified via email and phone calls. Telephone numbers remained the same, and clients were reminded of them in that email. Our new management kept your records up to date and all emails, messages and phone calls were answered in a timely manner. We are sorry to hear we’ve given the impression that Leo blames his staff and most importantly our URE family, which is our clients, for any misunderstandings in this company. As professionals with over 25 years of experience, we take great pride in delivering outstanding services consistently; all of our reviews prior to this one reflects that. It is for this reason we have our Release Form that states we have “completed [our] assignment to [your] satisfaction” with some space for comments you may have. Since this form was signed by your husband as well as yourself, we were unaware of how you felt. URE Events strives to exceed expectations in every event. Our footage of your wedding was absolutely amazing! Guests of all ages were complementing the entire staff throughout the night, saying it was the best wedding they’ve been to. We work really hard to offer impeccable service and create the best possible environment, and I am happy to say that reflected on your wedding day.

Can I give him 10 stars!? From the first time we met Leo, my husband and I KNEW he was our guy. Picking a great DJ was really important to us as a good/bad DJ can make or break the night. "Good" doesn't even begin to describe Leo. We spoke/met...
with him numerous times leading up to the day as he was extremely detail oriented, making suggestions where we didn't have a clue... enhancing our ideas or putting fun and new spins on traditional wedding rituals (tossing bouquet/garter toss). We had a live presentation on our first meeting where he showed us his equipment, lighting, sound etc. so that when deciding on a package, you knew EXACTLY what it is you were buying. He made sure to play all the music we requested and did an amazing job at deferring an annoying aunt who INSISTED on playing the Electric Slide... Leo was more then a DJ, he was a friend... no, family! On our wedding day he made sure we had drinks in our hands, enough time to eat/say our hellos/take moments to ourselves. He could have been our wedding planner/DJ/Therapist all in one leading up to the day. PLUS it didn't hurt that he threw us some major lighting freebies the day of which made the room come to life. Our guests approached me all night raving about how amazing our DJ was. If you're looking for an entertainer, a perfectionist, someone who can read the crowd and know what song to play next... look no further, Leo is your guy. URE Events... 10 out of 5 starts. :)

He made putting together our Run of Show so fun and relaxing, and always made us feel right at home during every visit. Leo had qualities that you will never find in an ordinary DJ. Our wedding was a 240 guest, multicultural wedding (Dominican, Italian, German, Polish, American) and like we knew he would, he knocked the ball out of the park with our crowd! He played everything, and has an endless library of music for all ages/generations and cultures. Everybody danced the night away! Just have one sit down with Leo, and his presentation and personality will blow you away. He also works really well under pressure, I saw this first hand when he thoughtfully put together a super sweet slideshow of my husband and I literally at a moment's notice. The slideshow had me in tears -it was so beautiful! Our families loved Leo and his professional team! Michelle captured amazing candids of the party throughout the night, and it was great seeing all the moments of your party on screen, as you experience it. They also worked incredibly well with the venue's team, to make sure that we, as the bride and groom, had an incredible time at our party, but still stayed on track of completing all the formalites, photos, etc. If you're getting married and looking for an entertainer/host/ DJ/ new relative, Leo at URE is your guy!

We were excited to work with URE, but as our wedding date approached there was a lot of miscommunication. We asked to add a photo booth, and it took us reaching out several times and almost a month before this was finally confirmed. Eight days ...
before our wedding, we were told there was a change in management which was the reason for the miscommunication. We were still confident that URE would pull our wedding off since we were told that the change in management would have no bearing on our event. Clearly this wasn't the case. Per our contract and initial meeting, we were expecting a DJ and a separate emcee. We ended up getting one and the same. Our maitre'd tried her best to be our liaison and ended up getting frustrated with URE after our cake cutting was inexplicably delayed 20 minutes. The photo booth attendant was nice, but after the wedding we realized that we didn't get a copy of every picture taken. In fact, we received less than half, and the quality was HORRIBLE. Every picture had a huge bright flash right in the middle, and it blocked out faces in some pictures. Also, the album was poor quality. The pictures were taped to white pieces of paper and the guests were given green permanent markers to write with, so everything bled through to the other pages. The music played during the night was decent, despite there being house music played several times against my wishes. I followed up with URE a couple of weeks after my wedding to voice my concerns. At first, Leo tried to put the blame on me, saying I had a tough crowd, I was nitpicking because everything went well in the grand scheme of things since names were pronounced correctly, and I shouldn't have picked the gold backdrop for the photo booth. After a lengthy conversation, Leo admitted the event was an "off-night" for URE due to the change in management and apologized for everything. His photographer edited the pics for us, but we are still waiting for the disc 4 months later. URE was not worth $3500.

ngths and A-game to the table throughout. From the start, what impressed us was not only Leo's vast DJ music knowledge and passion for his craft, but his unparalleled charisma and skills as an MC (truly gifted!). Maria was my wedding angel, truly our rock throughout this crazy wedding planning process; always available via text, phone, or email weekdays, weekends, day or night, and anytime our wedding anxiety hit lol. Her problem-solving skills are unmatched and her recommendations for anything wedding you may need, even unrelated to the music was plentiful. (I ended up finding my amazing makeup artist through a referral from her too). We were also really impressed with how they both incorporated their very talented son DJ Zeus into the ever-growing family business. He was the first person who greeted us at our first meeting; super attentive, poised, and polite young man; and his love, passion, and talent for music was more than evident from the start. Overall, our wedding EVENT was just that, an amazing once in a lifetime experience that went far beyond our wildest dreams. A huge part of making that dream come true was the URE Events family (Leo, Maria, & Zeus)!!! Our guests could not stop raving (even during the party) about how awesome a job our URE was doing and even now a couple of months afterward, every time we see or talk to one of our guests they bring up how this was the best wedding they've ever been to from start to finish. URE Events is one of the best decisions we ever made (and we were REALLY picky about this and almost every part of our wedding vendor selection process). They went above and beyond!!!

es to keeping our event lively, entertaining, and keeping the guests happy. A great example of URE's professionalism was, on our big day, the food was taking longer to come out than expected. Rather than beginning with the toasts, or playing background music while people uncomfortable waited for their food, he coordinated with our venue and opened up the dance floor right after our intro and first dance. People raved about how smoothly the event went. At our wedding, we had a lot of guest entertainers, as I'm a musician with a lot of musician friends that I wanted to feature. I had someone sing the Lord's Prayer, and he had a mic for them. He had a mic for our officiant, which was great because the wedding ceremony was outside. He had mics for all of my a cappella group friends, who sang my requested wedding song. He had BACKUP mics in case there were issues with the main mics. He had speaker setups inside and outside so our guests could spread out and relax throughout the reception. They had us fill out a form with our requested songs and songs for specific things like cutting the cake and throwing the bouquet, which was impressively organized. The videographers showed up right when we did to the venue, making sure to capture all the behind the scenes essentials, while working with the venue to be set up and ready for the wedding to start promptly. Seriously, people are STILL talking about our wedding, and it's been over seven months! They say it was the best wedding ever, and I know it was due largely in part to our amazing DJ and MC, DJ Leo! He and Maria even check in to see how married life is doing. Really, I can't say enough about them, and you can rest easy if you've hired them for your wedding or event!

Maria explained all the details and got to know us as a couple, we were sold by her professionalism, outgoing personality and all the creative ideas they brought to the table. Leo was concerned because we made the decision to book without hearing his sample--which he made sure he played before we left. Leo played a sample of reggae, soca, Top 40 and Latin music that had us even more convinced. They set up an affordable payment plan for our exclusive package in addition to the step & repeat photo station and Maria continued to check in with us for the months to come. The day of our wedding, Maria, Leo, their son Deejay Zeus and Cisco who was in charge of the photo booth exceeded our expectations. From getting everyone up on their feet to give us a group hug (which opened the dance floor and gave us a great photo shot) to making sure our guestbook was filled with pictures and best wishes from our photo booth. We were pleased and our guests were happy, some of them mentioned, “I was sad when dessert was being served because that meant the night was coming to an end" or” I felt like I was in college all over again”.

From the very first day we met Leo and Maria, it felt like we were reuniting with friends. Every meeting we would have with them, they would spend hours with us going over details and making sure they knew what we wanted for the music, lights, ...
announcements…etc. They were extremely helpful throughout the whole process and were willing to go that extra mile to make our wedding everything we wanted it to be. We knew we had to sign them up once we presented them with a complex lighting plan for a coordinated 1st dance and, without batting an eye, they said “ We’ve never done that before but we are more then willing to work with you to make it happen.” And they did! Where as the 10 or 12 other entertainment companies we approached would just say “sorry, we don’t do that.” They were always extremely accommodating, willing to schedule appointments that worked around our job schedule, no matter the time of day or night. They remained in constant contact with us before, during and after the wedding and have been nothing short of exceptional. They were consistently professional the night of the event; even when another one of our “problematic” vendors started to cause issues during the wedding. They helped resolve the situation in a respectful manner without disrupting the event and our guests never even knowing what was going on behind the scenes. URE Events were top notch (btw their photographer was fantastic!) and we will be using them for any future events we have. We were extremely blessed to have them for our wedding because in the end it felt like we had just another member of the family or friends providing the entertainment instead of just another vendor. Thanks again to Leo, Maria, Zeus and Romeo for all that you’ve done for us. We look forward to seeing you all again soon!

Also many people, loved the "URE skit' which is offer in replacement of the traditional garder ceremony (this skid is a bit longer than the traditional one but if you do not mind it is really fun). I would recommend URE's DJ services for their quality of work, professionalism, personality and costume service (you can reach them pretty much at any time of the day since they work very long hours).

Leo and Maria at URE Events provided DJ and lighting services at my wedding on 05/14/2015. Ours was an inter-racial marriage with one side Dominican and the other Indian, which was a tough assignment for any DJ company but Leo and Maria perform...
ed excellent and surpassed our expectations. Due to our special requirements for a bi-lingual (Spanish & English) MC and DJ who could play Spanish, English and Bollywood music, we met with a number of DJ companies but felt confidant of URE Events right after our first meeting after seeing their personal attention to what we were looking for. URE Events showed extreme professionalism throughout and yet were personally available for all our questions. We would highly recommend URE Events to all future bride and grooms!

My fiancé and I first met Leo and Maria on March 3, 2015. That was a start of a beautiful friendship!!! My fiancé loves music and we were looking for a DJ just to play music on our June 12, 2015 wedding but with URE we got a full package for o...
ur wedding and made new friends!!! Our families are mixed Puerto Rican, Jamaican and Trini so the music had to be split we wanted everyone to have a great time. Every meeting with them was like chatting with old friends. Now fast forward to the wedding day June 12, 2015 , they arrived early to set up and give enough time if they had to fix anything. We went with the platinum package that also came with a additional photographer (Thanks Joseph) DJ (Thanks Stefan) a Emcee (Thanks Armando) and TV screens for the photo montage we added the lights since we were having a rooftop wedding from 6pm to midnight. Listen people we met with other DJ's but that's all they did was play music URE is a entertainment company. We're young and didn't want the old boring ceremony music they worked with us to select what best fit us. Everyone is different and they understand that which is so important!!!! The set up was perfect no wires hanging around the TV's were big and the photo montage had everyone in tears. The staff was dressed professionally and kept the dance floor packed all night the EMCEE had the party going starting conga line and all!!! The DJ kept the music going with smooth transition from song to song whether it was Spanish to English and vise versa. The photographer kept snapping pictures all night can't wait to see them!!! Maria was also there and kept checking on me from start to finish and even helped with my makeup and dress in the middle of the night to keep me looking fresh!!! You want to have a memorable wedding hire URE

We were blessed to have the services of Leo & Maria on our special day. My husband and I both agree that a wedding would not be a success unless our guest would enjoy the music and dance all night since we're party animals. We are strong beli...
evers that a wedding party would not be a party without great music and entertainment. We had been to 2 weddings before where we met a great DJ/MC and since the first event we went to we always mention if we were to get married we would hire his services because his work was so great. The time came and we had to go through great measures to find his contact information only to later be put down after contacting him several times. I am a strong believer that God works in mysterious ways because if he wouldn't have been available, we would not have met 2 great people like Leo and Maria. They are BEYOND WHAT WE EXPECTED. They are professionals, caring, organized and attentive. With them you get so much more. On the day of our wedding they kept coming over to us to check if we were ok, if we needed drinks, if there was something else we needed. Since the initial meeting everything was just wonderful. You get the sense, the vibe that you made the correct choice because they coordinate every detail based on your expectations and beyond. They were so attentive that it went beyond just a DJ and entertainer. We also added their photo booth to our package and it was excellent. Our guest enjoyed it and we enjoyed it as well. If you are reading this review to make up your minds of whether or not to hire them for your wedding/event (we read and search everything one them before we did LOL) look no further. These people are the true meaning of PROFESSIONALS and you and your guests will have the time of your lives. It's been a month and a few days since our wedding and our guest are still mentioning how great the music, activities and coordination were. Thats when you know you made the right choice. EXCELLENT!!!

Thank you Leo and Maria! It was a pleasure doing business with you both! Words can't express how happy we are with your services. If you are in search for a really good DJ then URE is the place to be!!! They are very dedicated and hard working!...
Leo had everyone up from their seats within minutes of the party starting! From the beginning to end the music was on point and Leo always had the crowd entertained! Leo is not only a great DJ but an excellent entertainer! All our guest had a great time thanks to Leo and Maria's hard work! Great quality service!
