I recently had my wedding in San Clemente, CA and Peter was the DJ. If you want someone who knows their stuff and no BS, Peter is your person. In addition to handling the music, Peter has lights, smoke machines, sparks, tree lights and many other things. Peter was professional, joy to work with, had good attitude, and a great communicator. I highly recommend working with Peter.
Peter was amazing from start to finish for our August 2023 wedding! We really appreciated that in addition to DJing, we were also able to work with him for MCing and uplighting. He is versatile and attentive. Per my request, towards the end of the night, he transitioned to some EDM favorites which made me so happy and allowed me to have fun with our guests. Peter has a wonderful personality and was a joy to work with! Would highly recommend Peter!!
Peter is the greatest! He is very accommodating, kind, professional and easy to work with! I the groom on the other hand, was a bit vague about what songs to put on the dance floor because the bride and I were a bit flustered with wedding prep, but the day of, SOMEHOW Peter put on all the songs we loved to dance to! How does he do it? It's like magic.
So, it seems, Peter is not only an exceptional DJ and MC, he is also a mind reader of sorts. But really, you can see his decades of experience shine in how he makes everything work so well and keeps the atmosphere so lively and joyful during the wedding! Even knowing what songs to put, you really see the experience come out.
So for those of you who are looking for a DJ, I know what it's like to comb through so many reviews, many who have high reviews and go "who do we trust?" "they're all good", "how do we know which one's legit?" Let me stop you right there.
Peter is legit. Peter is good. Peter is someone you can trust.
Peter went above and beyond to make our wedding run smoothly. All my guests were very impressed! The music was great and people were dancing all night. Peter was also very easy to work with and very responsive. While talking to him on the phone he helped me pick out songs for my ceremony which was super helpful as a bride with so much to do! I would highly recommend him for your wedding or event!
I can't say enough amazing things about Peter but I'll try to keep this short.
1. We were surprised when there wasn't a dance floor we thought we ordered at our reception so Peter took it upon himself to call local vendors to try to get us a dance floor.
2. The best day he sent us video of some special moments at our reception that we otherwise wouldn't have had since our videographer and photographer were gone.
3. He kept our reception to our timeline and has such a fun and calming presence. He was very responsive in the planning process and helped us with details we wouldn't have thought about.
Do yourself a favor and don't look anywhere else!
Peter from Vive Entertainment was awesome to work with! He was very reasonably priced and provided such great entertainment and music. I had my wedding at Talega Golf Club and he provided everything we needed! He provided microphones for the ceremony, pre-ceremony music, cocktail hour music, and music for the rest of the evening! Now let me just say that our dance floor was LIT from beginning to end, and he threw in a couple songs that I hadn't even thought about that everyone loved! He was great at announcing things and he did it all so naturally ... clearly not his first rodeo. Throughout the planning process he was responsive, flexible, and easy to work with! My first dance song was a bit long and he noticed that and offered to edit and shorten it by taking out some choruses, and it ended up being perfect. I sent my music requests through a mixture of Spotify, Excel, and I sent a few .mp3 files over email (I had created my own song for the father daughter dance!) All in all, he took care of everything and exceeded my expectations! I would absolutely recommend him!
Months before our wedding day, my wife and I knew we struck gold when we hired Peter to be our MC/DJ for our wedding. Finding the right people to make your imagination a reality is very stressful but Peter put us at ease from the beginning. It became clear from our first phone call that he’s very knowledgeable, which is clearly a product of many years of experience. Furthermore, it became clear to us during that first phone call that he’s a kind, good person who genuinely wants to help create the wedding you’re dreaming of. Throughout the process, he was a great communicator and very easy and enjoyable to talk to. I asked him to mix a wide range of music that included EDM, rap, old R&B and Arabic music and he found a way to mix it all seamlessly. My wife and I also love mashups and we asked him to play very specific tracks that I found from complex mixes. He was able to make it all work perfectly to our liking. Not only did he help us with music, but he also helped us with lighting in creating the rave kind of feel my wife was going for. Peter was also a phenomenal MC. Everything was smooth start to finish and I received numerous compliments from my guests about how great he was as both a DJ and MC. I was so nervous picking a DJ because music is very important to me but Peter exceeded every single one of my expectations. Out of all the decisions that went into making our wedding a success, my wife and I both agree that hiring him was the best decision we made.
Peter is the BEST in the business when it comes to DJing/entertainment. We booked him for our wedding at Montage Laguna Beach and he made it an absolute dream. Peter is a great communicator, professional, proactive, friendly and incredibly talented. Our family has worked with Peter for years and we are SO glad we chose him for our special day (and yes, we already booked him for our anniversary party next year!). Thank you Peter for making our wedding day/night so magical!
Peter went above and beyond for our wedding! We could not have asked for a better personality, mix of music and all around DJ/MC. He helped make every moment of our wedding planning and wedding day perfect. He offered to a meeting before we even hired him, showing us exactly what we could expect with him as our DJ. We knew right away he was a perfect fit. He put together edits of first dance song, entrance song, father-daughter, mother-son dances to make them perfect for us and our timing needs. He even went above and beyond and helped my sisters put together an edit of songs for their MOH speech. He showed up hours early to make sure he was set up for the ceremony, then moved over to cocktail hour to make sure speakers and mics were set up for an impromptu speech. He was the perfect MC, able to get the crowd going, and settle down when someone needed the floor. The whole party was on the dance floor all night long, and that was all thanks to Peter!! I would recommend him again and again for any wedding (or any other occations) because he was really THAT good! Thanks Peter for everything you did to make our day special from beginning to end, we so appreciate it!
Peter was absolutely awesome and very flexible during our COVID wedding. We had to cut the reception one hour short due to COVID restrictions and Peter made the transition so smooth. He is so easy to work with and made our shortened reception and ceremony AWESOME! I highly recommend him to anyone
Peter was the best DJ ever for our wedding this last weekend! He was fun, organized, professional and moved everything along perfectly! I would highly recommend him for your wedding or special occasion!
We were extremely impressed by Vive entertainment for our wedding. The location was at the Ritz-Carlton, and included indoor and outdoor audio/visual needs. Peter was knowledgable, prepared, and a phenomenal MC. He is an amazing mix of professionalism, while still adding so much excitement to the event. We are so pleased with his company and highly recommend him to anyone in need of audio/visual services. He truly made memories for us that we will treasure forever.
Hands down best DJ! We have been to multiple weddings when Peter was DJing and there was no question when we were planning our own wedding who we would hire. Our wedding dance floor was completely full the whole night and no one wanted the music to end. Peter is organized, professional and a joy to work with. I highly recommend, 5+ stars!
Peter is nothing short of the consummate professional. Prior to the wedding, Peter met and conferred with us to better understand our preferences for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. Peter was able to mix songs, including lengthening or shortening songs (i.e. for the processional or our first dance), so as to accommodate our needs and desires. Peter offered a packet of music recommendations which also guided our decisions and lessened the burden of surfing the web for popular songs to play. Peter also adeptly used the music to set the tone of the event; he elevated moments by using high energy music and as well as masterfully used the music to lull the audience to appropriate silence preceding speeches (notably we had a guest count of 275).
For the open dance floor segment (end of the evening fun), Peter played a perfect variety of high-energy dance tracks for the young crowd, and also peppered in slow songs that compelled the older generations to join the group on the dance floor. Peter played the type of music we wanted, and respectfully avoided songs that we expressed we did not want played.
Peter also made for an incredible MC, and provided spectacular introductions for the collective bridal party, not only for the grand entrances, but also for their respective speeches. Lastly Peter has a wonderful disposition; he was easy to get along with, was accommodating, reliable, and returned messages (email or phone) promptly (which is important amidst wedding craze); he assisted with last minute changes, and was an integral member of our wedding crew, and most certainly elevated our wedding experience!
Ultimately, we are extremely happy that we hired Peter. Our wedding was better because Peter was our DJ. We highly recommend him for your wedding and/or any event you may have.

Peter of Vive is amazing, he made our whole reception great! He is very professional and really knows what he's doing. He is more of the DJ that you won't notice at the reception- in a good way- he does his job but doesn't interrupt the party. Everything was perfect and exactly what we asked for, the schedule worked out and all of the songs we picked were perfect. He played great songs and was versatile if we had to change timing up a little bit, like at the end when we had to play a few more songs before we were ready for our grand exit. Highly recommend Vive, very professional, he gives you everything you need when you sign on with him and makes it very easy, he is also very responsive to questions and helps find songs and shorten them if needed.
I was referred to Peter by multiple people and I am so glad I chose him as our wedding. Peter is amazing and so great to work with! He went above and beyond to make our wedding so fun and spectacular. He is an excellent DJ and so professional! He helped make our wedding so fun! The dance floor was full the entire night. There was music for every generation. I cannot believe how many people were out dancing! I would recommend Vive Entertainment to everyone!
Peter Pop is the best DJ I've ever encountered. He has an amazing ability to sense the feeling of the room and adjust the music accordingly. Keeps it low and chill at dinner, and then ramps it up at the right times. He gets to know what you want and then works off that to make for a totally FUN and awesome event!! Our wedding dance floor was always packed and many people stayed to the end. The last hour, we even had karaoke, which was a blast! Peter is an excellent MC as well - great voice and vibe. He made our wedding so much fun and was a pleasure to work with. Thank you, Peter!!
After meeting with several DJs, I decided to use Peter's services based on his demeanor and professionalism. Peter always responded to my questions in a timely manner, and he was always very helpful, such as when I asked for an example of a mother of the groom toast. On the day of my wedding, Peter went above and beyond by handling last-minute music requests from my husband and friends very well. Many of my guests came up to me to specifically tell me how much they liked my DJ. I thought that my relatives would be too shy to dance, but even they joined in the dancing because Peter made my wedding so much fun. He is also such a nice person as well. I highly recommend Peter (Vive Entertainment) for any bride looking for a great DJ.
Peter is a fantastic DJ and MC. He played great music and kept the festivities running smoothly. He was happy to work with me on my song choices and made custom edits for our different dances. I would highly recommend him!
DJ Peter was so easy to work with from the get go! He had a massive song list, but we decided to give him a few key songs and let him do his own thing during the wedding.
Then, unexpectedly during our wedding, my planner came up to me and told me that Peter's wife just went into labor and that his brother Dominic was going to take over. My husband and I weren't worried at all, and Dominic did an amazing job! He was elegant and MC'd the entire event with no problem, he had all the songs from Peter (our first dance and father/daughter songs were the perfect length) and he played appropriate music so guests of all ages were able to dance and enjoy the night!
Congratulations to Peter, and thanks for sending us a picture of your beautiful baby that was born on our wedding day! :D
Peter was a great DJ. The wedding music was so much fun and it kept people there all night.
Vive (Peter) was great! He had great suggestions for music, and gave us lots of fantastic ideas. He was so helpful in everything - he edited our first dance song so it was just the right length. All our guests thought he was fabulous and very professional! Even after the wedding, he was very accomodating and helped us with some follow-on requests. I would highly recommend Vive!
I decided to go with Peter from my first impression with him. Upon first meeting him he was super easy to get along with, very organized, and had a fun personality. He definitely brought all of these attributes into the feel of the wedding reception. He played the perfect balance of music to suit all ages in attendance and kept the party going. My husband and I had so much fun dancing we were sad to leave!
Peter came highly recommended and we could see why. His professionalism made our wedding a class act and no dance lessons took place. He was beyond what we expected and would hire him again in a heartbeat.
Great personality, awesome music, perfect DJ, best low key and funny emcee. HIGHLY recommend. Peter definitely made our party! So glad we hired him.;Absolutely nothing. If you don't hire him, you'll be sorry!
Was great to work with. Will come to your area to meet and discuss music. Responded to e-mails promptly.;Strayed a little from our music selection.
