"Our guests have RAVED about our reception and said we had the most packed, energetic dance floor they’ve ever seen. Armando did a fantastic job playing music that appealed to all of our guests and kept the dance floor full the entire night. He also worked with us to make sure we had the perfect cuts of music for all of our special dances, including putting together a cut version of a song for us to review before the wedding to make sure it was exactly what we wanted. Aside from the reception music, Armando did a great job with our ceremony music, announcing speeches and keeping our dinner schedule moving. Overall, Armando was amazing to work with and we would highly, highly recommend him!"
“Evan Bobo: Armando has the best traits of any performer. He treats everyone like family, and brings Infectious joy and energy into his performance. His breadth of experience allows him to organize and execute any event with precision, and improvise when needed (because we all know every event has its hiccups). Armando went above and beyond for our wedding and was a big part of making it the most memorable night of my and my wife's life."
"Sarah Alysse Bobo: Armando made our wedding reception the most memorable evening of our lives! He literally does it all from announcements, singing, playing guitar to DJing. When he takes on a wedding, you know he’s going to put his whole heart into it and we were amazed by how organized he was from the very beginning. In addition, we had his band join him. They are extremely talented musicians with electrifying and vivacious spirits. We were extremely impressed with the variety of music they could perform. They had our guests dancing all night long!!”
“We thought Armando was great and such an important part of making the wedding day team great. He was very friendly and fulfilled every request we had. He also payed close attention to what we wanted that night. I just had to glance over and he knew to cut a song off or start playing a faster one. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ! ”
“Armando was immensely professional throughout the entire wedding process. He was responsive to email and phone call questions. Not to mention he worked last minute to provide our violinist with microphone equipment. He gave us the party of a lifetime! We couldn’t get ourselves to stop dancing. We highly recommend him for weddings or any other DJ services. Our wedding was exactly how we dreamed due to Armando.”
‘Armando was absolutely amazing to work with. He made everything very easy, he is extremely professional, and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ!’
‘Armando was fantastic to work with when he provided DJ services for our wedding. He was very fun and enjoyable to be around, and did an amazing job of accommodating song requests from both us and our friends and family! We would highly recommend him to anybody looking for a DJ!’
Armando is the consummate professional. He showed up early and remained attentive to the needs of the wedding for the entire night. He had extra equipment on hand to facilitate the ceremony when problems arose. He even denied complimentary drinks to make sure he was ready for anything. You won’t find many DJs that take pride in their work like Armando does. 10/10.
Hiring Armando as the dj for your wedding is the easiest wedding decision you will make. He is incredibly professional, super accommodating on last minute decisions, very conscious of volume levels, and so easy to work with. I honestly did not leave the dance floor the entire night. Our wedding would not have been as amazing as it was without him!
Armando is extremely professional and kind. He did much more than provide great music, he also managed the entire timeline of our event. He kept us constantly in the loop while making sure we had enough time to enjoy our special day. He chose great music based on our personal preferences and requests from guests to keep everyone on their feet all night.
Armando was wonderful to work with. We handed him the video we wanted to play and the music we wanted to hear and he executed everything exactly as we discussed. I would HIGHLY recommend hiring Armando for your next event. Armando is also a very nice guy and it's always better working with good people. Thanks Armando for helping us throw an amazing wedding!
Thank you so much! I want to say you guys were the absolute best! You had my crowd entertained and everything was on point. Like you told me, the DJ sets the pace and is the heartbeat for a wedding and you guys mastered it!! Completely exceeded my expectations from the ceremony to the reception. We have been getting so many texts about how great the ceremony and music was. I will definitely keep you in mind for any event that my family may have in Chicago.
Armando and Reggie were amazing, we have received lots of great feedback from friends that it was one of the best weddings they’ve been too! So, thank you very much. Reggie was so kind and played all the music we wanted. We would love to work with you again in the future if we ever need a DJ.
Armando, thank you so much for being an A++++ DJ and venue coordinator. We had a total blast and our guests did too! Thank you for setting the vibe so perfectly!!!
Armando, just wanted to thank you so much for everything! You did a fantastic job and our family and friends had such a good time dancing at our wedding! Will highly recommend you to our friends :)
Thanks again!
The guests loved the set Armando played and we had so much fun ourselves! Thank you for making it a memorable night! I was exhausted from dancing the whole night!
Kevin and I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all your hard work at our wedding. You made the night UNFORGETTABLE. The music and lights were on point! I appreciate all the times you checked in with us just to see how we were doing and to ask if we needed anything. I'm sure you did so much behind the scenes that I'm not even aware of. My Mom told me she even saw you helping my Aunt with her walker... As a DJ, you went above and beyond. I'm so grateful. You were easy to communicate with and very professional, but also approachable and genuinely kind. You had no hesitation to create the best father-daughter dance remix and truly delivered! I'm so grateful I had you. The dance floor was packed and everyone had the time of their lives. I couldn't have asked for more! I will forever drop your name as the best DJ!!
Armando was one of the best decisions that we made for our wedding day. He was extremely professional, friendly, and courteous. For the first dances and speeches, his timing and control was perfect and kept our event rolling smoothly. The dance floor was constantly full and there were no dull transitions. Everything was amazing and we could not recommend his services enough!
Armando at SEC was the best dj decision I ever made. Not only was he the nicest and easiest person to work with from beginning to end, he livened up the party immediately! He catered to all demographics in the room. The dance floor was never empty, transitions were flawless and he even opened some up to new music! 5 stars all around.
Thank you so much for everything, Armando. We could not have been happier with you as our DJ. You timed everything perfectly, did a perfect balance of music types, pacing, announcing, everything. You were so nice and calm and chill. I literally cannot thank you enough. Forgive me if I’m being dramatic, but Philip and I could not have been happier! I’m so glad that we chose you. Thank you a million! -Z
You really went above and beyond, we had such an amazing time. We need an excuse to have another party now! -P
Armando was an absolute blast to work with from start to finish. We couldn't be happier with how the sounds and music for our wedding turned out - it was better than we could even imagine! A true showcase of flexibility when we had to last minute pivot from outdoors to indoors, we would recommend Armando to anybody and everybody!
What an incredible night! We had so much fun, so did our guests. Thank you for being so chill and working with us. Couldn't have picked a better DJ! Will definitely keep you in the contact list and recommend to our friends planning to tie the knot in the future. Now off to Hawaii for a relaxing honeymoon :)
Thank you for celebrating with us! You've been very professional with us and easy to work with. Thank you for being accommodating and giving everyone such a fun experience with your music. I will forward your information to any friends who are getting married in the future!
You’re the best, thank you so much! It has been such a pleasure working with you!
Armando was great and certainly got the dance floor going. We appreciate you and hope to see him again in the future. Thanks for everything, you did a great job! I will recommend you any chance I get for future opportunities.
Armando was an excellent DJ for our wedding! He was always professional and willing to help in any way he could. Before the wedding, he was always quick and clear with his communication, and easily put our DJ/music needs at ease. On the wedding day, he blew our expectations away! The weather was unpredictable that day, and when the rain stopped, Armando was willing to move his equipment upstairs so our family could enjoy the reception outside, it was so nice! He also was seamlessly able to provide the proper connections/equipment for my brother-in-law who was on acoustic guitar during the ceremony. Most importantly, my wife and I did not have to worry about music or sound systems at all during the wedding. Armando truly took charge of that portion and we couldn't have felt more comfortable knowing that he was making those calls. I give my highest recommendation to Armando to provide any DJ service, music, and/or sound equipment for your event!
We absolutely loved working with Armando. We were replanning our micro-wedding during Covid, and he was so easy to work with! He truly created a fun and memorable reception. Our guests loved the music and he took off all of the stress during planning. We highly recommend Armando, he is a true professional.
Toward the end of 2019, I recommended Armando to a dear friend who was searching for a DJ for her wedding. I recommended Armando because I'm very familiar with his work, he's dependable, friendly and professional. I knew that the moment my friend connected with Armando she and her fiance would feel relieved and taken care of. Immediately after Armando and my friend spoke, she texted me expressing how grateful she was for the recommendation and that Armando had treated her like "family." On the day of her wedding, Armando followed the playlist he was given, graciously took special requests and more importantly, intuitively read the energy in the room to continue giving guests what they liked or change gears if necessary. I received another message from my friend after the wedding telling me how special their wedding was thanks to Armando.
Armando tailors his services to accommodate every customer's specific needs and finds or develops creative ways to ensure each event where he plays is absolutely memorable. I highly recommend this talented and highly reliable professional for your event needs.
We booked Armando twice last year for two completely different events/audiences. One we wanted great background music while people mingled and chatted. The next, we wanted a band to be front and center leading the party. He killed it for both events. They are all amazing musicians and we received numerous compliments from our guests at both events about them.
We can’t thank you enough for being so freakin amazing for helping our day be so perfect for us!! You nailed it with all the music and kept the room alive. We were ultra lucky to have you. Our hearts are filled with happiness from all the love we received, and it’ll forever be one of the best memories ever.
Thank you so so much for being there and being you and helping make sure everything was amazing because it truly was amazing! I am so grateful we paired with you, and it was so cool seeing you in your element! You really brought your A-game and everyone was complimenting you to me!! I will forever recommend you and your talent and skill to everyone I know I will be calling you first thing for any future events!
