Eugene and his brother are the best hype people in the Bay Area! We were referred to Macala…read moreEntertainment by our coordinator, Rosie at Rose to the Occasion. He was so funny and able to relate to our guests so well (since we're almost all Filipino). We have never seen any DJ/MC with so much energy and charisma. He was so popular, we had guests asking for business cards after the event. Preparation: We set up a call with Eugene and our coordinator, and went through the details of the event. Namely, trying to size up the "vibe" we were going for. It was a delight to sling words like "hyphy" or "Filipino time" when discussing this, it was like planning an event with friends except it was strictly professional. The music portal is easy to use, you can sort certain songs to most likely be played, might be played, and do not play. Eugene also accepts Spotify playlists, which I sent to him prior so they could gauge the type of music we wanted at the wedding. The music selection I sent isn't strict either, it's mostly a recommendation so he can prepare for the crowd at the event. Day-of: Eugene is spontaneous, funny, and charismatic. We had our itinerary, but I could never guess what he'd say to get us from one scheduled item to the next, nor how he'd fill the space in between. Eugene ensured the whole room was participating, up dancing, and having a great time. People were laughing, everyone (even the Lolas/grandmothers) was waving napkins in the air, hiccups (if any) were invisible and covered seamlessly, the entire night was a night to remember. For many, it was even their party of the year. Closing Remarks: Eugene and Macala Entertainment are a large part of why I consider my wedding day, to this day, to be the best day of my life. We highly recommend Eugene and Macala entertainment for all DJ/MC and hype man needs.

On October 12th, we threw the most magical wedding I could have ever imagined and Clark Harding of…read moreLarkstarr Media was part of this magic. We were looking for a sound person, who we could rent equipment from for our DJ, who was flying in from NYC. We also needed sound support for the ceremony and dinner....all of which, were outdoors. I searched everywhere in the Bay Area and was getting nowhere. Then, our chef recommended, Clark and Larkstarr Media and our needs were answered and more! Clark came out to the property months earlier to assess exactly what we needed. He didn't try to oversell and listened to what we wanted to achieve. He even called our DJ to discuss what his needs were to make sure he had all the equipment our DJ would need. He came to the venue a day early to do a sound check and made sure all was smooth. The day of the wedding he came early and was not only ready and professional, but, he just became part of the team....helping us with whatever was needed.....always kind and smiling. He was a total professional and a really great guy to work with. I would recommend Clark and Larkstarr Media for any sound needs you may have for whatever size event you are throwing. He is kind, clear, and honest. In my opinion, he is the ONLY guy to do this in the Greater Bay Area.

Nick DJ'd my sister's wedding and, in a few words: Everyone had such a great time!…read more As difficult as it was to plan a wedding during a pandemic, Nick made the process so easy and fuss free. He was so easy to communicate with in this remote setting. He responded with very thorough answers to any questions my sister and I had (and we had a lot!). My sister and her husband also chose several Japanese songs in their sets, so we weren't sure if it would be difficult for him to obtain high-quality audio of those selections. But he did it! And he made sure to verify with them that he found the right songs. On the wedding day, everything sounded great! He also provided mics for the ceremony and reception, and brought uplighting to add another level of ambience to the reception room. When the dancing began, he knew just what to play to keep the energy alive on the dance floor. Everyone - from our oldest to youngest guests - had a turn on the dance floor! Nick will be my top DJ choice for my next event. Thanks for everything, Nick! :) Here's a few words from the bride! - "I'm so glad we chose Nick to DJ our wedding. He did a fantastic job combining the J-pop, Pop and Oldie songs we requested and everything flowed so seamlessly. Not only that, he is so easy and fun to work with. I loved his fun personality. He really made the evening incredibly enjoyable and all my guests had nothing but good things to say about him. If I needed a DJ in the future, I would definitely ask him again."

Boy were we worrying for no reason! Nick is a true professional and has truly perfected his craft. I can't tell even begin to tell you what a great time our guests had! I'm not sure what magic Nick works, but he knows how to keep the party going! Along with taking care of all of our music and mc-ing needs, he also provided up-lighting which added a whole other cool element to the ambiance of our reception! You will never meet a more genuine and chill guy! We are forever grateful for Nick and and his DJ/Event services!

The morning after our wedding reception, the FIRST thing we did was write an email to Keith... this…read moreis what it said: "We are slowly recovering from Saturday night, and we didn't want another minute to pass before we expressed our gratitude. Y'all know how to throw a party. if you could only see the Facebook posts from all of our friend's pages - as they left they wrote stuff like 'best wedding ever'!! We've received countless calls and emails that say they same thing, and they all want to know the name of the band. As my brother taught me long ago, when you throw a party, start with the band - that's what people will remember. Our wedding planning knows her stuff - we're so glad we were able to book you!!" Whose first email after a wedding reception is to the band at the wedding? Ours. Because we hired Keith. It's been a bit since our wedding, and we STILL get folks commenting on how great the band was. Some of my favorite photos from the wedding: dancing with the band. Keith knows his stuff. You don't have to come up with a song list - just tell Keith what to avoid and trust him from there. EVERYONE from 20 to 80 danced at the wedding. As I write this review, i want to plan another event just to hire them again.

OMG, wow is all I can say! I was absolutely thoroughly impressed with KJ All Stars. This was…read moreeasily one of the best vendors I hired for our wedding, they were absolutely extraordinary! They were professional, showed up early and looking sharp, set everything up, and executed flawlessly. First let's talk about the talent. It was beyond what you could imagine, the band sounds incredible live, and Keith's vocals are out of this world. I received so many compliments that night on the band and on Keith's incredible voice. What I was particularly impressed with is how they are chameleons and can easily change genres to fit the crowd. They played music that really went with our requests and the crowd was DEFINITELY hyped on the dance floor! The tender moments were perfect, I actually need a recording of Keith singing "Let's Stay Together" like he did for our first dance, b/c he and the band were BREAKING IT DOWN!! He was also a great MC and was able to move seamlessly from our First Dance to the Daddy Daughter Dance, etc. In terms of organization, they get an A+ again. The manager Chris was very responsive and professional via email. The entire process was perfect for a busy bride, mail a deposit check, then when it gets close to the wedding, highlight the song list with your favorites, then sit back and let them wow you! I didn't have to hold their hands, they knew what to do! I would also add that if as a couple you are torn between DJ or band, KJ All Stars is the PERFECT option. Not only are they a fabulous band, but Keith is also a fantastic DJ, and the times that they broke from performing live music to play some recorded hits were really seamless and a huge hit, especially with our younger crowd. I am sure they will play live music and then DJ in whatever percentages you want, so you could get a great combo of both because they do both flawlessly! KJ All Stars hit all the notes (no pun intended), and if I had a wedding again to renew my vows they would be the first vendor I would rehire. I just wish that I had more time during the wedding to truly jam and dance like the rest of my guests were! I seriously would go crash another wedding that KJ All Stars performs at so that I can jam some more and focus more on their incredible music and Keith's phenomenal vocals! Thanks again from a satisfied customer and huge fan!

DJ Li was amazing and 100% one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!…read more We had been searching for DJ for a while and couldn't find one we vibed well with until I found him on a wedding FB group. Immediately, we felt at ease with him. He was easy to communicate with and open to all our requests. The music list I had was quite diverse and he executed it with ease. We had one game that we played during our wedding that he hadn't been familiar with, yet he made it seem like he had been doing it for years. A DJ/MC can make or break a wedding. We've seen and heard of stories where they just don't execute or fall flat. With DJ Li, you can trust you are in good hands and guarantee you will have a great time! Our dance floor was filled the entire night and it was thanks to DJ Li!

I'd give DjKingLi 10 stars out of 5 if I could!…read more Li was hands down the best DJ/MC to hype up our small wedding of 50 guests. I posted on an online wedding group looking for an affordable DJ. We've never thrown a big event before, so I had no idea what to expect. Out of about 15-20 responses, DJ KingLi had the best energy. We messaged back and forth, with ease, finalizing all the details. Signed the contract and it was smooth sailing from there. The big day finally arrived and while we were scrambling to set up, Li quietly entered the venue and immediately started his set up. His energy and vibes were exactly what we were looking to have at our wedding. He knew how to feel out the crowd and did such an amazing job as our MC. He was so kind and engaging, we felt like he was part of the family. 6.22.23 was a day full of love and DJ KingLi was part of our dream team that made it oh so magical and serendipitous. Thank you Li. Looking forward to crossing paths again in the near future!!

We also wanted fireworks as our farewell, and Patrick was able to coordinate with the pyro technician when to play the song selected at the right time. Patrick catered to our music preferences, and I would absolutely hire Patrick again for future events. If you're looking for a DJ, look no further. Patrick exceeded my expectations, and I'm sure he won't disappoint!
