The URE team IS family! Period. You would be a fool not to hire these guys to host your party. This team is Top notch! From the very beginning through every step of the process, Leo, Elena and Jhony made my wife and I feel like a million bucks. Of all the things we had to stress about during our wedding the URE team was not one of them. The day of my wedding watching Leo come in and take charge of the vendors was spectacular! He's like a musical conductor. The motzart of wedding MC's. Honestly, having a true advocate there who's sole purpose and responsibility was to make our night the best it could be was invaluable. Every single person who came up to my wife and I that night couldn't help but rant and rave about it being the best wedding they have ever been to. URE exudes excellence and professionalism. Trust these guys to have your back. They will work with you not only as your advocates but as your trusted collaborators. They bring ideas to the table you might not have even thought of but always with the purpose of making your night unforgettable. When I say URE is family I truly mean it. It's impossible not to become close after sharing such a special night together. This team really brought it home, from the music selection to reading the room and adapting to the guests and audience, from all the little adlibs and playful joking. I can't stop reliving the Magic of the night. LEO, ELENA, thank you so much for all the extremely talented and experienced hard work you put into our wedding. Your proffessionalism and dynamo expertise was on full display for all to witness. This most certainly will not be the last time we hire URE to host an event. If you want a stress free event that is unforgettable hire URE. If you want your guests to bask in the afterglow for weeks after the event, hire URE. If you want to have random flashbacks and daydreams of your magical night while stuck back into the daily grind of regular adult life hire URE. They helped make a permanent happy place firmly ingrained in my mind forevermore. Don't hesitate. Don't second guess it. Hire the URE team now!
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 team 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 expecting. 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.
Leo and Elena are an Amazing Team! We hired them in 2019 prior to Covid. Leo's presentation was flawless, not to mention his hospitality was both very warm and professional. Given the challenges we were faced with, due to Covid, both Elena and Leo were very patient, empathetic and understanding. Once the big day finally came for our daughter, Leo and his staff were nothing less than expected. Everyone raved about his music selection and showmanship. I highly recommend considering URE Events for your wedding or any special occassion!
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 the 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!
Hands down , the best decision we made for our big day!!!! If you want to have your dream wedding come to life you hire URE!! From COVID pushing our big day to all the ups and downs they were there !!! URE is the party they treat you like family and want the best for you! My guests are still asking who our DJ was and talking how incredible the music and party was . The DJ sets all the tones and you want URE!!!!
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 the 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.
Let me start by saying-URE is the absolute best! We were going back and forth with this pandemic and the patience and understanding that URE showed us throughout this time was remarkable. Leo knew exactly what we wanted for our wedding and made sure to go above and beyond for us. It didn’t even feel like a DJ it truly felt like a cousin or family member DJing the event! Lol Elena is also the best! She always checked in, and her energy was just so calming even during these crazy times. I am so happy with how everything turned out and URE was the best part of the wedding! I can’t ask for more. If you need a DJ don’t look anywhere but at URE. They are truly the best!
You will NOT find a better event management company!!
Here's how our wedding went with URE Events:
1-constant back and forth throughout the pandemic with changing plans, guest size etc. and Leo (the owner) not ONCE got frustrated or expressed annoyance.
2-held a safe & small COVID outdoor wedding that felt like it had 200 people there due to the energy that URE Events brought.
3- Had so much fun, we paid URE Events to stay a couple more hours.
4-The DJ/owner, Leo, jumped in the family pool with the wedding party to put the cherry on top of an EPIC night.
Put your trust in the URE family and your special event will be even more magical than you could have imagined. We love you Leo, and URE Events! Thank you times one million!
URE Events is hands down the best company to help celebrate your wedding ! From Music to Photos they are your one stop shop! Their Professionalism in an industry that is ever so changing, they are one of a kind. As someone who works in the hospitality industry they are by far the real deal! No request was too small , and no email / phone call un answered. Leo & his team will make sure your day is special. Ask for the ZAPS they are the best shots :) Thank you again URE Events !
We were 2 months away from our wedding with no DJ or photographer. One night we were searching for potential vendors and came upon ure events. We filled out their online form and were very surprised to get a response back within 15 minutes. We 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.

I have nothing but the best things to say about my experience working with URE Events. The entire process of working with Leo and Elena was seamless. They responded to my initial inquiry quickly, talked through what the event required, took the time to do a walk-through – a huge plus in my book! – went above and beyond sourcing additional materials, arrived early to set-up, and did an AMAZING job executing the event itself. I received multiple compliments from guests about Leo’s DJ ability to read and pump up the crowd. If you need an events team, look no further! I truly couldn’t recommend URE Events more highly.
If I could give more than 5 starts I would! Leo and his team are absolutely incredible. We had quite the crowd to please given that my husband from Venezuela and I am a native New Yorker. We needed to cover a lot of ground with the music and they pulled it off seamlessly pleasing both sides of the family and all age groups. We received so many compliments from our guests about how much fun they had at our wedding (yay!). The music was definitely a huge part of that! So many guests were on the dance floor the whole time! Aside from the music, Leo and his team are professionals and were super attentive to us always checking in to make sure we were happy with everything or if we needed anything. I honestly can not say enough positive things here. Booking vendors for your wedding day can be extremely stressful and nerve racking. You are placing your trust in them to make your day amazing. I can tell you from our experience you can trust Leo and his team. They are amazing! Book them!!
Leo and Elena are the dynamic events duo! My husband and I were amazed with how Leo read the crowd and was able to get everyone out of their seats and onto the dance floor. Elena was absolutely amazing, paid such close attention to detail when it came to the photography. Making sure peoples cell phones were not visible, even the crumpled up little tissues in their hands. Elena even helped out with things that she didn’t have to help out with. From saving the day by getting the very complicated zipper on my dress to zip up to helping to put/take off my shoes. Both Leo and Elena went above and beyond our expectations. They really brought our wedding together!! Thank you both from the bottom of our hearts!
Leo and his team were absolutely amazing! From beginning to end they were very involved constantly checking on us and helping whenever asked. All of our detail meeting were spectacular, they really make you a part of their family. The day of the wedding Leo and Elena went above and beyond any expectations we had. We are still getting compliments on our amazing music! They are great at seeing your vision with you and making sure at the same time you have something for everyone at your wedding. We couldn’t be happier with URE and recommend them to everyone ❤️. Thank you so much guys!!!!
When my husband and I were on our search for the best wedding DJ, we hit dead-end after dead-end, until we found URE events. From the beginning, the experience they created for us from the start was incomparable. They take their time, listen to your dreams for your wedding day, and then make it happen. Leo is not only experienced, but well organized, and most importantly knows how to conduct an audience. Whether that be with your bridal party, event coordinators, or guests, he will be your timeline reminder to keep the party moving forward! Thank you Leo and team for making our wedding an evening to always remember <3
My fiancé and I went in to meet Leo last week and wow, what an experience! Leo not only made us feel like family, but the amount of knowledge and expertise he showed us made it a no question to book with them. We cannot wait for our wedding in October! Go in and meet with Leo!
My husband and I were so pleased and happy with the service, consideration, quality, the expertise, and the overall experience and process from beginning to end, while working with URE Events, particularly Leo and Elena! Leo was able to help us pick the appropriate and best songs for everything from the processional to the reception entrance songs. He will be honest with you in the most respectful way and will also listen to your preferences and desires with the kind of music you want. Elena was such a pleasure to work with, as she was so patient, informative, and responsive in setting up our appointments, answering any questions, and processing payments. Hire URE Events for your next big event and you will not regret it! They really love what they do and care about their clients and about the quality of their work. Thanks so much for making our once-in-a-lifetime wedding/event beyond memorable!! :)
Booking Leo for our wedding was the best investment my husband and I could have ever made! We were truly blown away by the attention to detail, guidance, support, love and respect Leo showed us. Everything he said he would do was done with perfection. My husband and I had no idea what we were doing when planning our wedding. Leo stepped in and gave us his expertise advice/suggestions from many years of experience. We knew that we could trust his judgement and that made the planning process so much easier. The day of the wedding he completely blew us away, not only with the music and lights but also with the way he “ran the show”! He knew every detail about our wedding day schedule and everything ran so smoothly. I had almost every guest come up to me to ask me “who is he?”, “he’s amazing!” Leo had all guest fully entertained with dancing and laughter. One thing I will always remember was Leo’s call the day of the wedding to me. He calls me to check-in and see how I’m doing and reminded me that I am a boss! I loved the words of encouragement from him on that day. Needless to say, book Leo!! If you are on a budget like my husband and I were, book him!! You won’t regret it!!
Words can not explain how grateful we are to the URE family. They did the impossible for us. My wife and I gave them literally less than 2 months to put together our dream wedding and the surpassed our expectations. Leo treated us like family, guided us through the whole process. He accommodated to every change we had with no hesitation, even ones we had last minute on our wedding date. Elena (photography) was fantastic every picture she took told a story during the reception on 2 jumbo televisions. Leos other two DJs (Asher, James, and Rodie) were fantastic as Leo went around entertaining our guests. Aside from Leo's fantastic work of art as an MC, Rodie the videographer was amazing. Always there but never in the way. My guest referred to him as GHOST; the man who's everywhere and nowhere all at the same time. All in all, my wife and I are truly blessed to have been put in Leos path. He and his crew will for ever be our family and go to party planners and DJs. Thank you for the Magic Leo and Elena. Words are simply not enough to describe your work. It's an experience of a life time.
Hands down best DJ/MC/entertainment and everything in between. Leo and his staff are now like our family. They worked in tandem with the rest of our vendors to make sure everything was seamless. The music was PERFECT! Everyone danced so much... he had my parents dancing and they NEVER DANCE! He also catered to us through out the event. He kept in contact while we were planning as well to make sure he knew us better. If I did this all again I’d book them in a heartbeat.
When I was searching for wedding DJs, all I expected was someone who would play a little music, most likely a standard list. Leo and his team provided much more: a great DJ, a coordinator and MC to help us on the day of the wedding, a detailed schedule, coordination with our other vendors and a music selection that accounted for our diverse backgrounds.
URE was always responsive, professional, cordial and insightful. Their initial presentation was very thorough, and they made sure to schedule follow up meetings as the wedding date approached.
I would be surprised if there was another vendor out there like URE Events. Their service is excellent, and they really do deserve all of those awards. When you hire them, you're not only contracting a DJ. You are investing in making your wedding as amazing as possible.
Love you URE! Leo, you and your team were so amazing! Thank you for the most amazing night ever. My family loves you, everyone has been talking about what a great time they had because of you! Thank you a million times over. You delivered on every promise you made.
URE Events is who you want to book for your wedding day, for any event really. From the profesional presentation when we first met, to all the planning and advice, to making our day fun and exciting for everyone! Leo treated us like family. 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! If I could give 10 stars I would.
Yohi & Joel
My first experience with Leo was at my best friends wedding over a year again. I just knew he would be my DJ for my wedding. Leo was amazing from the beginning of our wedding ceremony all the way through the end of our reception. He created 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.
Wow where do I begin Leo is amazing from the way he walked us through every single step of our day the set up was amazing Leo the photo montage the music the photographers the light show the hora Loca was to die for everyone keeps talking about our wedding even months after and they all mention the mc Leo wow he was great down to earth involved everyone shows that he really loves what he does I am blessed and fortunate to have met you brother and I have no words to thank you for the awesome job you did for us you made our wedding a day to remember not only for us but for everyone that was present thank you eternally grateful highly recommend his services to any couple seeking to get married and wants to be stress free you are in great hands hope this review helps future couples
URE EVENTS contacted us through a friend who was getting married and we heard good things about them from our friends. The first time Eileen and I met Leo, we knew he would be our DJ/MC at our wedding. We hit it off from the moment we started talking to him about all sorts of music. We met with him a few times before the wedding to discuss playlists, songs for ceremony, introductions, and important family songs. Everytime I spoke with Leo, I never felt pressured in making a decision. He is a very down to earth person who understands the business from many sides. He is multi-tasking all the time and his reviews show for that. We really appreciate URE EVENTS for taking the time with everything to make our wedding sound great, feel great and get everyone off their feet.
The best decision we made for our destination wedding in Mexico!!! URE Events (Leo & Elena) are one ultimate duo. They were professional, punctual, and go above and beyond for their clients. Our process with URE Events from the beginning to the very last day has been incredible. From our weekly calls and appointments they were able to customize our vision and made sure every single detail of music and photography was covered. We wanted to bring New York entertainment to Mexico and they did just that and more. As for photography, Elena was very detailed and made sure my vision of my fairytale wedding was captured through her lens. I got a sneak peak and I was speechless! Leo and Elena give their hearts to their work and we are beyond grateful! We are happy we chose to go with URE Events! Our guests raved about them afterwards and how they interacted and connected with our family and friends. A 5 star 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 review is not enough to explain our experience to say the least.
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.
Punctuality: 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
Leo and the team at URE events were fantastic! We booked Leo via a recommendation from a friend, and could not have been happier with the result. Leo did an amazing job showcasing what exactly he would bring to the table on our wedding day - and we were sold right away!
Leo was very communicative, attentive, and really made us feel like he cared about us and our special day. He made sure to pay attention to special song requests that we had, and helped us add to our event space with special lighting, GOBO, etc. Leo and his team checked in on us throughout the night, making sure we had everything we needed. There was never a lull! Leo helped us move quickly and easily between speeches, special dances, etc. Our BIGGEST priority during our entire wedding process was that everyone danced as much as possible.... and that was exactly what happened! Everyone was dancing the entire night, having the best time.
THANK YOU LEO AND URE! You made our celebration extra special.
If I could give more than 5 stars I would! We booked URE (DJ and photography) for our wedding this past September and they were beyond amazing from beginning to end. Leo and Elena communicated with us every step of the way to make sure we got everything we wanted and were extremely helpful in making recommendations when we were unsure. Leo and his team, Elena and Justine, genuinely cared about our special day and it shows how passionate they are about their work. They day of the wedding they came to the venue 2 hours early to set up and coordinate with us and the maitre d'. The music was on point... Leo had all our guests dancing and entertained the whole night. Everyone had a great time and raved about how great the music was. We can't fully express how grateful for everything that URE did for us... the music, MCing, the photography - it exceeded our expectations and definitely made our wedding even more special.
I truly do not know how to begin to thank URE Events and most importantly Leo for the amazing job they did at our wedding. My husband and I started to look for vendors year and a half before our wedding and we knew the music was going to be one of the most important factors for us. Looking for DJS in different wedding websites we came across URE and from the first email and phone they made to us you can see their professionalism and passion for what they do. Leo from the beginning gave us exactly what we wanted and more he helped until the end of our wedding and made sure everyone had fun. Kept us calm and made sure we had the support we needed that night. If you are looking for a DJ this is who you need. We were very fortunate to have found Leo and we couldn’t have asked for a better company!! BOOK THEM NOW, you won’t regret it
We had our wedding on September 22nd. We were extremely lucky to have been referred to URE Events for our wedding. The whole team were extremely professional and made the whole experience so much fun! Our guests could not stop talking about the music and photobooth. In particular, they loved Leo from URE. The wedding at one point felt like a club with the music, lighting, and non-stop dancing. Leo's energy was contagious! URE worked with the wedding coordinators at our venue to ensure the whole night ran smoothly. If there was an issue, we had no clue. We highly recommend URE Events and would engage with them at future events.
I cannot fully articulate how passionate Leo is when it comes to music and making his clients feel more like family. The entire wedding planning process was seamless because of his years of experience, honesty, and willingness to accommodate our needs.
Leo is exceptionally talented! My family loves to dance and I could not ask for a better reception all because the music was on fire and Leo knows how to read a crowd and give them exactly what they want. Aside from the music, the photobooth and monitors with guests to see photos from earlier in the ceremony and reception were more fun ways for people to keep having fun.
I highly recommend this company for your wedding and frankly, any other big event where you want to have a good time.
I came across this wonderful Dj and company by chance passing his office everyday. When it came to planning my 65th Birthday celebration I took a chance and just walked into his office. Best decision ever! Leo, (the mastermind of the business) was so warm and welcoming and a bond was instantly formed. That bond followed through all the planning stages that led up to an extraordinary and magical night. Leo and Elena were so down to earth and made all my guests feel excited for me however with a side of professionalism that is rarely attainable. Everyone was dancing and singing. I can’t say enough about Leo and Elena definitely the right choice. If you are lucky enough to have them for your event you will not be disappointed, just completely amazed! Thanks millions Leo and Elena much continued success.
Thank you so much for an amazing night. You show us an special concern in all the details of our wedding party and that in the end made everything perfect.
The way you edit the song of our first dance it was beautiful and the songs with our parents were exactlly what we need.
We know we had a though crowd however you managed to keep the party alive! The way you adapted the music list to satisfy the song requests of our family and friends (each time a little bit more complicated!) just made it great for everyone.
Muchas gracias de verdad!! :)

I had such a great experience with URE events. I chose URE to do a photo session for my daughter’s Sweet Sixteen. I initially had been expecting Elena to do the session, but to my surprise I was met by both Leo and Elena! They were punctual and very professional. They took their time with us, went past our scheduled hours and the photos came absolutely beautiful!! I highly recommend them and will use them for any future events.
If you are looking for a DJ, look no further, you've come to the PERFECT vendor. Leo, the owner, is so friendly and straight forward, he is honestly the best!! You won't find someone as dedicated to their craft as he is. He is an entertainer, is always on point, and will go out of his way to meet your every need. Every meet up or phone conversation with him was fun and non-stop laughter. He is a PROFESSIONAL and his team is the best. I was crazy stressed finding the perfect DJ and I am so happy my husband found URE because they took care of us so well. From the planning to the day of, they were ON IT! Leo is such an amazing person and you know you're in good hands from the moment you meet him for a consultation. I can't thank them enough for making our day extra special. They are so easy to work with and once we decided with URE, everything was smooth sailings! Book them for all your events!! You won't be sorry!!!!!
I cannot begin to express how amazing Leo and his team are!! They made our wedding so special. The music was on point; exactly what me and my husband wanted. They had amazing energy and pumped up my guests to dance the whole night. Everything from the first meeting to the day of the wedding went extremely smooth. Leo was always available via phone and e-mail to answer our questions. His team was extremely punctual as well. I wish I could give them a million stars!!!
I will start by saying that Leo is an excellent DJ. He delivered great music at my wedding and everyone enjoyed themselves. The music was FIRE!!!! as Leo would say. The reason for 3 stars goes as follows: His team was unprepared throughout our entire process. They changed management and phone numbers and had many scheduling mix ups. He did not take responsibility for any of these mix ups but instead blamed his staff, as well as, me the client. When we spoke to him he was not apologetic and did not go by the saying that the customer is always right. With that said, Leo is a very talented DJ, but his professionalism is lacking.
We used URE for our wedding in NYC Feb 23, 2018. With only 4 months to plan the wedding we needed a professional, efficient DJ and that's just what we got. Michelle and Leo are absolutely fantastic!! They took all the stress away of planning the ins and outs of the wedding day (song choices, flow of the night, etc.)
And the DJ.....AMAZING! They are super flexible and will tailor the whole experience to your needs, wants and personality! We got SO MANY guest compliments on the music and MC. They really know how to throw a party!!! After seeing what a great job they did at our wedding our friend is using them for her upcoming wedding!
URE is excellently priced, professional and a ton of fun to work with! They even offer photo booths and photography! Leo and Michelle truly care about their clients and they go above and beyond to make sure your day is perfect! I'm so happy with our choice, we couldn't have done it with out them! I HIGHLY recommend! Thanks URE!!!
Awesome
We hire URE Events for our wedding which was April 15, 2018 as our DJ/MC team and it was the greatest decision we have ever made. They go above and beyond to make sure that our wedding goes without a glitch(problem). Leo made sure that every event that we plan was coming on time and if something was off or could not be done he warn us. Leo also made sure that we were able to have a bite and drink otherwise we would have starve lol. We should have listen to Leo from the start of how the wedding should have been plan because when we went in we wanted in a different way and in the end it end up like Leo had suggested in the begging. They are very knowledgeable people who knows how to coordinate the wedding with the pros and cons of things. As a DJ they are the best, our guests were dancing and jumping all night even though the ladies were wearing high heels. Also they are very dedicated, committed, great at team work, kind, they are the best of the best, I never met someone who are as amazing as they are and through all this process they made sure we always felt welcome and help us made our vision of our dream wedding into a reality. Thanks a lot Leo and Michelle there is no words to express how amazing you guys really are. LOVE YOU LEO AND MICHELLE YOU MADE OUR NIGHT, THE BEST NIGHT OF OUR LIFE, so far until the next party ;)
I wish you guys can hear the expression in my voice as I write this review. Ure events is amaaaaaazinggggg .amazing! Leo is very genuine and kind hearted .I was truly blessed to have him and his staff be apart of my special day .I am using him in every party I have to death do us part lol ..thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything. Xoxoxo
Leo did a great job making sure my day was perfect. We used him as our mc/dj, photographer, videographer, and Photo Booth. The day was so special and getting to relive it through photo & video is something we will cherish forever. Thanks Leo & The URE Team
From the moment we began to plan our wedding we knew without a doubt we wanted the URE family to be apart of our special day. At our first initial meeting we were not only blown away by Leo’s enthusiasm for his work, but also with his dedication to making it as special as possible. We quickly and easily established a connection that served as the foundation to a great long lasting relationship. Throughout all the chaos of planning a wedding, Leo was always there to reassure us every thing would work out great. And it did! Our wedding day finally came and the URE Events team was ready to go. They were prompt, professional and on point. They helped coordinate everything from the entrances to the cake cutting and made sure it all happened as smooth as possible. We didn’t have any worries.
The highlight of our night was by far the music! The music was one of the most important things to us. We wanted a big blend of salsa, hip-hop, pop etc. and URE delivered. The music created such a great energy, all our guests were out on the dance floor that night. We are still getting compliments. We highly recommend URE Events for your next event. You will not be disappointed!
If I could give Leo a million stars I would. Hands down he was THE BEST vendor we dealt with throughout this entire process. He was communicative, understanding, a team player, professional - really just everything we could have ever wanted. Prior to meeting Leo we were in contract with another vendor that screwed us over and Leo was literally our shining light. We booked the platinum package and it was well worth it. Our guests raved about the live pictures on the tv screens, the photobooth, and his ability to cater to our Hispanic, Afro Latino, African-American, Trinidadian heritages to give us the BEST party experience. It is now standard that we book Leo for EVERY other life event. It is mandatory now, especially since we're family now, because that's what happens after working with Leo - you become family! Thank you again for such an amazing night. We love you!!!
First Meeting - Today we booked with URE Events and we are super excited to begin working with them!! From the minute we stepped into their office, Leo and Michelle were more than welcoming and accommodating! They truly made us feel like family. We are excited to begin our URE relationship for our wedding in August!
From the very first time we got in touch with Michelle and Leo from URE there was an immediate feeling of excitement. They invited us over for a demonstration of their services and were extremely clear about what they have to offer. My wife and I are from different cultures and wanted a DJ who understood the entertainment needs of both sides of our families. Leo knew our cultures before we could even tell him, and then he was able to play classic music from both cultures as well as contemporary. Leo is extremely knowledgable, likable, and professional. Michelle made us feel like we were becoming a part of their "family," not just potential clients. Working with URE up to the wedding was extremely easy. Communication between us and URE was perfect every step of the way. At the wedding the energy level was top notch from the moment our wedding party entered the venue to the end. My wife and I didn't have to worry about a thing, Leo and Michelle took care of everything - timing of events, speaking with maitre d' to make sure everything went smoothly. We were able to enjoy the night completely. Following the wedding we have had countless compliments on the music, dj, and energy. We have heard things like "Best wedding we have been to" "The DJ was amazing." URE went above and beyond in working within our budget and making sure we still had an amazing party to match our venue. Hands down without a single doubt would recommend URE for your entertainment needs!

My husband Warren and I were married on August 18, 2017. However, the road to blissful matrimony was fret by drastic financial pitfalls. We originally ordered the platinum package, but had to downgrade a week before the wedding. We felt really bad because we couldn't get what we wanted and we did not hold up our end of the agreement. Through it all, Leo was gracious. He never harassed us about late or inconsistent payments, nor charged us a late fee. Despite the downgrade, Leo made our night so special and even added the BOGO lights that are included with the platinum package as a wedding gift. That was one of the best gifts we received. You cannot go wrong booking URE for your next event. The music is on-point and Leo's personality is the creme-da-la-creme.
URE events did an amazing job. Leo is truly the master entertainer. He is a MC/DJ/Comedian all in one. It does not get better than that. Of course, behind every great man is a great woman and I have to say Michele is the best. She is an awesome listener, leader, and photographer. Our family and friends raved about our wedding and had a great time. URE events is the best and thank you so much for all that you did to make our day so fantastic and special!
Thank you Leo for such a fun and amazing experience!!
URE Events is a fantastic crew and do a phenomenal job! There is no one else out there that take their job so seriously and more importantly will care more about your wedding then Leo and the rest of the crew of URE events. He is passionate about what he does and goes above and beyond to give you the exact experience you're looking for when it comes to your wedding.
Leo is courteous, he works extremely well with the rest of the vendors, and is incredibly professional. He was on time, he helps walk you through the entire process from A to Z and is there to take as big a role as you'd like in planning the wedding. He provides top quality service and a unique and amazing product.. What ever you need Leo is your man!!!
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. :)
We were so grateful to have found URE Events since they were able to reflect our wedding style as we envisioned. From the beginning to the end they were professional all the way. If I had any questions Leo, our dj, and his team were there to quickly respond making this part of the wedding planning less stressful. When we first met Leo we automatically knew it would be a good partnership. He made us feel comfortable that working together was easy but what impressed us the most was how he went beyond what we expected. He captured every moment that we will treasure forever. We could not express again how happy we are having worked with URE Events and hope to use them in other milestones in our lives. Thank you!!
Leo is amazing and knows how to rock a party! We hired URE for reception pictures, Photo Booth and DJ for our wedding on 9/16/2017. He was the first vendor we hired, before we had a confirmed wedding date, before we picked a venue - and he was so accommodating through the entire wedding process...always checking in on us and making sure we didn't have to worry about a thing! My guests loved the music and he did a great job of mixing hip hop, Haitian music and salsa to accommodate all of our family and friends! I would definitely recommend Leo and his team for your wedding or special event for both DJ and photos! Go with the platinum package if your budget allows it, it will not disappoint!
Leo at URE is the newest member of our family! He and his team were amazing! I met Leo 2 yrs ago at a bridal expo in NYC when I first got engaged. He was the first vendor we booked for our wedding - and we are so glad that we did! Your entertainment is the party, and Leo was well worth the investment. Throughout the stressful process of planning, he was right there checking in on us to make sure we were good! 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! Thank you for an Unforgettable event, URE!!
On behalf of my husband and I we would like to thank Leo and the URE team. They were amazing at our wedding! We had so many great compliments from our guests, everyone loved them. Thank you URE for being real, honest and fun!. We highly recommend them! You wont be disappointed.
URE event is BEYOND AMAZING!!! The music was great, the entertainment was amazing!!! We had pictures taken that blew us away especially because we haven't received our professional pictures yet. They caught candid moments that just caught our eyes. Our experience with URE Events was outstanding!! Leo, Stephanie & their staff were very professional, respectful, and made you feel like your more than clients, you become their family. The music was jumping and popping all night until all the guest were on the dance floor, and had the floor shaking all night (literally). The dance floor was crowded all night. Our family & friends cannot stop talking about how much fun they had all night from begining to the end until now, raving about how great and how much fun they had that night. URE truly takes pride in the work that they provided. Choosing URE will add that special touch that all weddings long far. They are truly the best. Leo and Stephanie, Steven and I truly thank you both for giving us and being a part of our special day. WE TRULY APPRECIATE YOU!!
They are the best!!!
Leo's energy and charm made the wedding reception a dream come true!
So much thanks to both you and Michelle!!
5 Stars! No one is better!
I wish we can rate them higher than a 5 stars because they deserve way more than this, from beginning to end they were amazing, from Miguel, Massimo's team with the photos from the guys with the videos (the drone was amazing!!!) from the dj and the photo booth guys and Michelle helping out every step of the way and of course Leo , words cannot describe how thankful we are for Leo and the team , you guys made our day as close to perfect as it could be , he made us feel like family and honestly we feel like he is family to us, the music was amazing the pictures and the tv's in the venue were super amazing! overall i will recommend this company to anyone for anything , thank you Leo and Team, Luis & Destiny will forever be thankful to you guys
Leo, Michelle and this company are amazing. From the first phone call to the call after the wedding to recap, they did everything with professionalism. We had a multi-cultural and multi-religious wedding so we looked hard to find the perfect DJ and we found them! The DJ played a variety of music that entertained our diverse guests (I am half Jewish and white, and my husband is Latin and Christian). Michelle also came the day of our wedding as basically like a wedding coordinator. She made sure everything ran smoothly and was our point person. She was FANTASTIC. We are so happy with URE and we recommend them to everyone!
When we met Leo, our wedding was suppose to be a year from now. Things happened, and it turned out to be in 3 months. My wife and I honestly thought this was going to be a problem..... we were wrong. Leo started off doing everything, no problem. Just when we thought things couldn't get any better, Michelle came into the Ure events family! Leo & Michelle makes you feel like family, actually they make it known we are family! Because of them we were not worried. Because of them our whole party was moving. They are absolutely amazing. Leo and Michelle we thank you for everything! You made our wedding Epic! The security guard working said "this is the best reception ever had here, I'm putting it on Facebook!" Lmfao
