I have to say I wish I never booked my wedding DJ with this company. My fiancé and I attended a wedding and thought they were great. The minute we got engaged I knew I wanted DLE for our dj. Sadly, as soon as I hit submit on the down payment my hope and excitement went out the window. Our reception hall asked that all vendors be set up prior to the start of cocktail hour so that they wouldn't be arriving along with our guests. I completed the contract with the corrected time and followed up with Daniel to make sure we were ok. A few days later I still didn't receive a response, so I followed up with a second email. Still, nothing. What I did receive was an email stating that my invoice was 14 days past due. I was finally able to track down Daniel and get him to contact me after calling his office. He explained that it was a computer glitch, and that we were fine. I accepted that and moved on. 2 weeks later I received an email from his entertainment coordinator asking if we were still interested in using them for entertainment..almost a month after I gave them an $1,100.00 deposit. By this time, I lost complete faith in this company and decided I couldn't depend on them. I sent Daniel a termination email explaining my concerns and reasons why I couldn't use them anymore. I was told that my emails were sent during a very busy time for them, and they must've gotten lost in the mix. This isn't what a bride wants to, or should hear. No matter what industry you're in, the customer should be made to feel like they the only client being focused on. Now, Daniel is claiming that I was unresponsive on the phone when he called to discuss the termination of our contract. In reality, I missed his call while I was at work, sent him an email asking to call my fiancé with any questions, and he never did. He finally sent an email last night stating that we would not receive a refund of our deposit. Would never ever recommend this dj company for anything! In response to Daniel's post: Daniel, It was never our intention to be the most difficult clients. It was our intention to hire an amazing dj who would make our wedding the best, which we saw you could do at a friends wedding. We have no doubt that your skills would have made it great BUT we did have doubts of whether you would even show up. Your business professionalism is nearly non-existent. In the email shown above, which you still have not acknowledged, we didn't even have a signed contract! Now, that email was sent on 11/25 and we responded to you to cancel our contract on 12/4. That's NINE DAYS that you had to correct the issue, and to say it was yet another computer glitch. Instead, we got no call or email. Nothing! If we had a signed contract, and you had so many opportunities to book another wedding, why were we receiving an email asking if we were still interested?? Additionally, to say that I became unresponsive and that you could only resort to leaving me voicemails is a blatant lie. You left ONE VOICEMAIL. As I said in my review, I couldn't get to the phone that ONE time. It is absolutely unacceptable and completely unprofessional to say you were just too busy to get back to me and to lie and say I ignored all of your calls. Is it really so hard to imagine and comprehend why we lost faith in your company and chose to not work with you? It was nothing but "glitches" since the minute we signed the contract with your company. I could not in good confidence go forward with the contract. The right thing to do would be to return the money. At the very least, a sizable portion , if not the whole thing. Either way, you make out better in the end. You can continue on to book another wedding, will probably keep our money, and we're the two left to find a new DJ 9 months from our wedding. read more

Daniel and his team were great entertainers at my wedding. They listened to all my requests for my wedding. The team showed up on time and were very professional. Their set up is aesthetically up to par and modern. read more

Thank you for your wonderful service! We hired Daniel for our wedding a week ago and he is great at what he does. Prior to our event, we were given access to Basecamp for project management. We can upload our ideas for our wedding in Basecamp and can modify it whenever we need to. My husband & I were happy of the turn out. Daniel really delivered the service we are expecting. He is dressed appropriately for the event and really professional in DJ/Emceeing. He keeps the party alive, excellent live performance, and the timing of each of the songs are on point. I heard plenty of positive feedback from friends & family about our DJ. I strongly recommend DLE Event Group for all your event needs! read more

So much we could say about Daniel and his team. They were everything we asked for and more. At the wedding they not only provided great music that kept all the guests dancing, they also helped keep things in order and organized, even when the venue and their coordinator were not very on top of things. Just as important though, the process of preparing for the wedding was so helpful and organized. The site Daniel uses is extremely helpful and kept everything transparent so that had the freedom to make changes to the timeline. The site also provided useful recommendations for songs and Daniel was a great resource, providing his feedback on what would and more importantly would not work, based on his experience. Altogether great experience and strongly recommend Daniel and team to others. read more

I first discovered Danny and DLE Event group at a wedding I went to back in August and was blown away by his hosting and dj skills. He is so comfortable and perfect in his craft that I recommended his services to a friend getting married in June. He knows how to get a crowd going and is also extremely professional (not to mention super cute too). Can't wait for this next party! Do not second guess booking DLE Event Group for your party, he books up quick! read more

Wow! I couldn't have asked for a better team to work with than DLE! We booked their DJ and photo booth services for our May 1, 2021 wedding in Montauk and it exceeded all expectations! From our very first interaction, we knew we found the right company. Daniel understood our vision and every conversation with him was like talking to a friend and it was always full of laughter. The entire process leading up to the big day was extremely professional and organized. The day-of, we worked with Aaron and Jase and they made the entire day from the ceremony all the way to the reception one that we will never forget. Everything flowed so smoothly and they kept everyone on the dance floor. Two moments I definitely want to highlight are: 1. after the reception was over, we had an after party that we didn't hire DLE for but Aaron and Jase stayed a little bit longer to help troubleshoot the speaker system that wasn't working properly that we were plugging our iPhones into to play our own music. They definitely didn't need to do that but were sooo extremely kind to help us out! 2. the morning after the wedding, the staff at the venue were telling us how all of the staff working in other areas of the resort were dancing and really enjoying the music Aaron and Jase were playing and they were one of the best DJs they've heard in a while. Now that the wedding day is over, we're looking into what other party we could throw so we can hire DLE again! read more

Could not recommend Daniel enough! From the planning process to the actual wedding he exceeded our expectations at every turn. He was very personable and easy to work with as well as organized. His set up allows for a seamless way to plan the entertainment from start to finish through his online site. I felt very comfortable in working with him on the music selections and felt he had a good handle on what we wanted to hear, but when it was the actual night of the event he crushed it! Not sure how else to put it but people are still talking about it a month later. Definitely, definitely, choose him for your event! Also, highly recommend the additional musicians as they added a real nice touch. read more

Daniel Linares and his team made our wedding night absolutely amazing, fun and memorable!! Our guests could not have been more diverse, with my family from Mexico, my wife's family from Nepal, and our friends from childhood through medical school. DLE Event played a wide range of music to everyone's delight that had everyone dancing all night as if they had always known each other. We're really happy with how well our families and cultures meshed for the first time, and this was all facilitated by DLE. Our friends and family cannot stop talking about the party. Thank you so much for everything!!! read more

First of all, my apology to Daniel for this super late review on Yelp. My husband and I hired Daniel and his event group as our DJ and MC for our wedding on October 10th 2015. He and his group showed 100% professionalism! Planning a wedding is extremely stressful. We met up with Daniel a week or 2 before the wedding to discuss the details. He answered all of our questions in regards to the flow of the wedding and gave us tons of suggestions on the songs to be played at the wedding. We were extremely relieved and felt confident that the wedding will go smoothly after the meeting. Daniel did an excellent job in keeping the party fun and upbeat. (Not an easy task with Asian crowd) He even performed few songs for us and my guests loved it! I somehow lost my garter during the wedding. Daniel quickly grabbed a string from somewhere and asked me if its okay to use it as a garter. Thanks to Daniel's quick reaction, the game didn't go awkward and went on as fun as expected. Daniel, we couldn't thank you enough for you and your group's excellent job at our wedding!!! We were extremely satisfied because you did beyond what was expected and our guests had so much fun! For anybody that's reading this review, please trust me, you will not regret and will get beyond what is expected if you hire Daniel! read more

We are so glad we booked Daniel as our DJ. Everything ran so smoothly with Daniel's help and he adapted so easily to all the last minute changes. He is truly a professional and so good at what he does. You would be doing your guests a disservice if you do not have Daniel Dj and ALSO sing at your wedding. Voice of a frkin angel. You get what you pay for and Daniel is worth every penny. He listened to us, no matter how small the detail, and figured out ways to make it even better than we could have ever dreamed. The "love story" portion is such a nice personal touch and we loved every second. Our guests had such a good time and we still hear compliments till this day. Thank you Daniel for throwing a kickass wedding. We will remember for the rest of our lives. read more

Daniel was the DJ for our wedding. He did a fantastic job remaining in contact for the months proceeding the wedding. His process for selecting music and organizing the days events was easy, fun, and had spectacular results. Daniel is fun, caring and keeps you comfortable through out, making him one of our best decisions. The day of the wedding was everything you could have hoped for and we are so grateful to Daniel for his major role in this. He is quick on his feet, and guests respond very positively to his enthusiasm. He comes off sincere, genuine, and makes sure people have a great time, which in our experience wasnt always easy to find when it comes to other DJs. People still talk about the fantastic music selection and how much fun they had at our wedding. read more

One of the things that our guests can't stop talking about was our DJ! Danny and his assistant absolutely NAILED IT. They played music to satisfy a bunch of different preferences. Really read the room and knew when to move on from a song. Our dance floor was never empty throughout the course of the night and towards the end everyone was out of their seats singing and dancing. Could not recommend him more highly. They did an absolutely phenomenal job!!! Not to mention, Danny was always super reliable and responsive to emails and calls. Plus he ended the night with the Dirty Dancing song without any request from me. Literally made my whole night! The very best!!! read more

DLE was the only vendor we chose for our wedding that didn't come from a referral or we didn't see at a previous wedding. I just did some research and they seemed like the right choice and I am so glad I went with them- because they certainly were! Let me start by saying I LOVE THE ORGANIZATION. All the documents we could fill out and go over together on the phone later. It made everything so seamless and easy. Next, I loved how many options were included. We went with the DJ, lights, photo booth, and saxophonist. All of them were AMAZING. The music Daniel played was on point with everything we wanted. Everyone was dancing the second the party started. The photo booth and props were hilarious; they had a panda head that was basically floating around on everyone's head all night . And the saxophonist (totally forgot his name so sorry) was a huge hit. Everyone was raving about him; he was truly phenomenal. Lastly, just want to say that Daniel is an extremely kind individual and that's what we loved most. He was so pumped for our wedding and was truly a pleasure to work with. Thank you guys! read more

We hired Daniel Linares for our wedding day in June, he was absolutely marvelous. From the second we reached out to him it was smooth sailing! He was quick with email response and he was very meticulous in every way! He had tons of ideas and suggestion but was always all ears to our own ideas! Our guest cannot stop raving about how much fun our wedding was due to our wonderful DJ who had the crowd going all night. Both families were extremely happy as he catered to all of our guest! He played Spanish music for my husbands side, and played line dancing for my Filipino family =] Our dance floor was packed all night, thanks to our wonderful DJ!! Our friends have already taken his number for their future weddings! Thank you so much DLE!!!!! read more

Daniel and his team are the BEST, and most professional entertainment company out there. Daniel takes great pride in his work, it shines through in his professional manner that he holds throughout his experience working with his clients. My husband and I were lucky enough to have DLE with us on our wedding day in Roxbury NY. Daniel took the time during the planning process to listen to what we wanted in our wedding day, and to make sure that he delivered the exact party we wanted. We could not of had a better person at the helm of entertaining our guests, everyone danced the night away, they showed up and gave us a perfect night. Daniel and his team were SO well dressed, so friendly and helpful to not only our guests, but our other vendors, and truly gave us a night to remember. We will be sure to use Daniel and the folks at DLE in the future for any other events we may host. Already guests at our wedding have booked them for some of their events. These guys are the best in the business! read more

Preparing for a wedding is no easy task.  There is so much to do, and so much to remember that one slip up could mean someone doesn't get food. Food, and music are key to any wedding, and Daniel and his team are the top. From the beginning stages until that last song played Daniel was nothing but a professional.  Still two months after the wedding the one thing brought up is the music, and how amazing it was. Daniel was not only my Dj , but my wedding planner, my day of therapist, and most of all a friend. I would recommend, and trust DLE to my closest family, and friends. I've known Daniel Linares for many years, and have been friends for that time. On my wedding day Daniel became family, and truly made the night soar beyond belief. read more

Daniel was the DJ and MC for our wedding and we cannot thank him enough for his patience, professionalism, organization, and responsiveness. Of course, he was amazing with all of our music requests and has a great personality. He worked with us to lay out our plan for the ceremony music and reception. Our wedding was very different in that we had many cultures and taste in music. We also had a lot going on in between the formalities including having a family member translate. Still and all, he was patient, accommodating, timely, had a positive energy throughout the whole process, and super fun to work with. He felt like family! My only regret was trying to control our music list too much because I was trying to make everyone happy and I can be a bit of a control freak (yikes) instead of letting Daniel do his thing to fill the dance floor. Overall, Daniel did an amazing job and once I let go he filled that dance floor. Book Daniel and trust him - he will have everyone on the dance floor! read more

Daniel did a wonderful job DJing our Halloween party at The Bohemian Hall and Beer Garden! He knew just what the crowd (600 people!!) wanted and really got everyone up and dancing. He was extremely easy to work with and more than happy to help with the requests we had of him (such as announcing costume winners and even staying later than originally contracted for.) He really made the night for us! Thank you Daniel! read more

My husband and I were tired of searching for a DJ for our wedding and it just so happens that Daniel is a friend of a friend that my husband has known a long time! My husband never thought that a DJ would travel from NY to do an event in PA! But we really lucked out with Daniel. Part of me wishes we would have booked all our services through him because from the very first moment we spoke he put my mind at ease that he would take care of everything! And that he did without bothering me with the details! We put complete trust in the fact that he knew what he was doing gave him a few song choices and the rest was his MAGIC! He made everyone cry with our photo montage and even extracted our proposal from a posting on facebook that I never thought we would ever be able to get! Our reception is something our friends and family will talk about for many years to come. Our dance floor was packed the whole night and he has the most amazing voice on the microphone! He was a huge part of making our reception a success and we are very pleased with him! We would do it all over again if we had the opportunity! Thanks Danny! read more

When my wife and I had started our search for a DJ, we wanted someone who would really bring life to the party as we felt the DJ/music would be one of the most important elements next to the food at our wedding. Daniel was beyond that and more. His team was excellent in everything they did; great and easy communication; access to edit music online at any point during the planning process (via their basecamp feature) Even when we had list minute adjustments for things (literally the day of the wedding), Daniel was very accommodating and would even give suggestions on how to make it better. He even helped with things that didn't pertain to his area of expertise like getting our dogs stay dressed in their wedding attire!! He coordinated our last minute special guest , Mr. Met and just overall made our planning experience much easier knowing he was around. Daniel made our special day that much more special. He truly goes above and beyond. You won't go wrong in booking DLE Event group! read more

I very highly recommend this event group! They were hired for my wedding in September and it was perfect!! They are very professional and they are very responsive to our needs. We wanted a certain music type and it was all smooth and perfect. Daniel is very professional and appreciated my vision. He in fact does run a very boutique business and meets and talks to you whenever you wish. I have nothing bad to say about the team! They made my day fun and beautiful! The collage they made was priceless, and the layout of all the lights and monogram I couldn't have asked for anything better. I am very pleased and my family was as well! Thank you for all your hard work it shows and I am forever grateful! read more

Daniel Dj'd my wedding back in September and our guests kept complementing my wife and I on what a great DJ we had. Daniel was our first DJ we went to go see to DJ and MC our wedding and at the end of our first meeting my wife and I decided to book him right then and there. He is very professional, enthusiastic, and VERY helpful. As we all know wedding planning can get very crazy and we tend to lose track of things. Towards the final couple of weeks before our wedding, my wife and I had barely anything set up on his online service he provides to all his clients. Daniel was VERY kind to meet up with us on a Sunday and stay with us as long as it took to walk us thru and help set up our first dance song and as well songs during the wedding. Daniel gave us his undivided attention at all times and when it came to the night of our wedding, he performed exceptionally well and had everyone dancing all night! Thank you Daniel! read more

I've had the pleasure of working alongside Daniel when I used to be a waitress for weddings. After all 200+ weddings I worked, Daniel was the only memorable and impressionable DJ, becasue let's face it, so many DJs are exactly the same. Every single wedding I witnessed him working (probably about 5) were an absolute blast. The dance floor was always PACKED. I knew the second my husband and I starting planning that there was no way I was going to host a party without Daniel, so we booked him immediately after confirming our date. His ability to use the energy of the dance floor and create the flow of music from song to song is incredible. He even sang a couple songs for us while our guests were eating dinner! I still have people telling me it was the most fun wedding they've ever been to and how surprised they were that they danced the entire time. DJs and food make or break a wedding, trust me I've seen it too many times, but half the battle will be taken care of if you book DLE. You won't be disappointed! read more

Daniel and his entire team were top notch during our wedding! My wife and I were fortunate to have him as our DJ/Master of Ceremonies during our ceremony and reception this past Labor Day weekend. He really does go above and beyond and is extremely cordial and professional to all of his clients. He played all the songs we asked for and made the entire planning process as seamless as possible with his "basecamp" planning application. He did his best to accommodate our needs to ensure we had a smooth and seamless wedding and we could not have asked for a better DJ. He interacted with our guests and even joined them on the dance floor which hyped it up even more. After the wedding, our guests even commented on what an extraordinary job he did during our reception! If you want a DJ that will go that extra mile and make your wedding night a blast, I highly recommend going with DLE entertainment. You won't regret it. read more

This was the most amazing experience I could ever ask for. My parents, skeptical of hiring a DJ, were ecstatic after the wedding. Daniel is truly gifted when it comes to making these moments unforgettable. Everyone stated that the experience was perfect and that they never had so much fun dancing at a wedding. read more

We used Daniel for my daughter's communion party. He listened to our requests, definitely mixed the music to please not only our daughter but us, led us in some dances and had everyone putting on there boogie shoes. It was an awesome time! Daniel was professional and personable. We will definitely use him again. read more

Daniel dj ed and sang at our 12/31/14 new years eve wedding. Our guests ranged from teenagers to senior citizens. Daniel played the right mix of music and kept everyone happy which kept everyone dancing. During the cocktail hour and at dinner, his talented assistant played acoustic guitar while Daniel sang. And at midnight, he was able to get a live feed from Times Square for the countdown. Daniel has great energy and a very nice persona. He was a pleasure to work with. read more

Danny responded so quickly and provided nothing but the best and professional experience. Planning a party is so stressful. There is so much to worry about and follow up on. I never had to contact him. He reached out and made everything so easy, I never once had to second guess or worry. Due to rain I had to make major changes to our party just 24 hours before. He never once added any extra stress to this, just took the new info and showed up early and truly was the hit of the party!!!! It wouldn't have been the same with out him. I had 15 plus kids and they were all entertained from start to finish!!!! I would definitely use him again for every party need and recommend him for every event from and backyard party to a grand wedding!!!! Not one thing to complain about!!! read more

Hands down, Daniel and his company, DLE Event Group, made our wedding the best dance party we could have ever imagined. Not only did he play all the right songs, but his charisma on the mic and ability to read the crowd, was of the highest caliber. It's not easy to plan a wedding from across the country, because it usually means your only means of communication are emails and the occasional FaceTime. DLE Event group is one of the most organized companies we had the pleasure of working with. They use Basecamp which is a project management website that made communication of song ideas, and general feel of the day, absolutely seamless. We told Daniel what we were looking for on our big day, and he took our ideas and knocked it out of the park. It truly felt like we had an opportunity to collaborate with an artist, rather than just hire a DJ/MC. We are still getting compliments about how phenomenal of a DJ/MC Daniel was. Him and his crew were incredibly professional and sweet the day of. He has such a positive and uplifting attitude, that you cannot help but have the best time when you're around him. He truly has a talent for reading a crowd, and making split decisions on what needs to be played next. His ability to guide the flow of the entire reception was seamless and seemingly effortless. He takes the time to do the work, get to know you as a couple, really listen to what you are looking for in your party, and then make it happen. We couldn't recommend DLE Event Group more for your DJ & MC services. Anyone who says you need a band over a DJ clearly hasn't met this group. Thank you Daniel for making our reception the killer dance party we always wanted! read more
