Effren was great to work with as an DJ, MC, and sound guy for our wedding. Really captured everything we needed, including timing special moments like a sunset song. Very flexible and professional. We were very particular with our music, ranging from house to hip hop. I am a DJ myself and I can say for certain that Effren is a very talented DJ with track selection, creative mixing, and feeling the crowd. He also helped mic up some other musicians that we hired. read more

Effren is the perfect wedding DJ. A huge part of what we appreciated most was everything *before* the day-of. It was clear from the intro call that Effren was a professional, and he gave us confidence that everything would go smoothly from the get-go. It was easy to work with him to arrange the schedule for the day, songs where we wanted them, and realistic timing. Our friends and family (let's be honest, mostly friends) had a few more off-the-wall selections that Effren both had available and incorporated into the event perfectly--all while keeping things diplomatic for the true no-play list. Indeed, day-of, Effren exudes the calm confidence of someone who has done this many, many times, and brings some much-needed zen to a chaotic day. He's a great emcee, DJ, and a person you will be glad was a part of your wedding day. Thanks Effren! read more

I was nervous about finding the right DJ for my wedding, because I know the DJ/MC can make or break the energy of the event. But from from our first call to wedding day, working with Effren was absolute pleasure! His talent and genuine passion for what he does is so evident and his fun, bright energy during our calls were some of my favorite moments during wedding planning. He encouraged us select music that reflected who we were as a couple, but he made sure to let us know not to over-stress as he could work with whatever level of guidance we gave him. Many of my close friends also DJ so it was important to me that I found someone that would impress my crew - and he really delivered! He is intuitive, adaptable, knows how to read the room, and has the cool factor you want in a DJ :) His MC skills were also very on point. Everything went super smoothly. If you want to work with a real professional he's your guy. So grateful he was part of our big day! read more

Effren was amazing! We booked him to livestream our wedding 6 days before our wedding date. He was SO communicative throughout the whole process and took care of coordinating with the venue and our DJ. It was a completely seamless process from the first phone call to the day of. He went above and beyond to make sure our video was perfect. We had friends and family from all over that watched our live ceremony and everyone was SO impressed by the quality. And we now have a copy and can watch back the full ceremony on our own! This was the best decision we could have made. Thanks so much Effren!! read more

Hiring DJ Effren was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From day 1 he was very attentive and helpful when picking our wedding playlist. The dance floor was packed all night because he perfectly mixed all of our music choices. All of our friends and family have said it was the best wedding they have been to. We couldn't have done it without Effren! I would recommend him for any event and especially for your wedding. He is a true professional and our wedding wouldn't have been the same without him! read more

Effren went above and beyond for our wedding!! He delivered an incredible set that mixed music that our parents loved and our friends loved, nobody left the dance floor. He is an extremely talented DJ and this was showcased at our wedding. Our wedding guests throughout the night and to this day have stated multiple times that he is the best DJ they have heard at a wedding and were blown away by his talent. He did an incredible job of feeling out the vibe of the crowd and mixing based off that. We knew we didn't want a typical wedding DJ who just played song after song, and what we got from Effren was beyond what we ever could have imagined. From day 1 working with Effren he was extremely fun and reliable!! We are ready to renew our vows and hire Effren for round 2!!!! We cannot say enough good things about him. read more

DJ Effren was absolutely amazing to work with for our wedding. From the start, he really helped guide us to create playlists that represent our lives, which made us feel special. Not only was kind, fun, and easy to work with, he kept people on the dance floor the WHOLE night. Literally. I can't say enough good things!!! Thank you!!! read more

Effren did a fantastic job DJing our wedding this past weekend! I am someone who is incredibly particular about music and really had a vision for what I wanted - Effren knocked it out of the park to say the least. The planning process was super organized using Spotify links and a spreadsheet which I loved - I felt confident from the beginning that he understood what we wanted. When he set up a few days before, we walked in and were blown away by his lighting set up, the sound quality, all of it. On the day of, he again exceeded expectations! We got countless compliments on the music selection and he did a fantastic job of choosing and mixing songs that everyone would enjoy while making sure to keep in mind my "no play" and "must play" list - the dance floor was never empty! Overall, Effren was so easy to work with and is amazing at what he does! 10/10 experience! read more

Where do I even start? From the very beginning of our planning with Effren he treated us like family. He helped us carefully plan our playlists so that our personalities could shine throughout all parts of our wedding. From the ceremony to the end of the reception he helped keep the energy up and the people dancing. I come from the world of EDM and music festivals and I wanted our reception have a similar vibe. With the music and the lights that he brought, I honestly felt like we were at our own mini music festival. His mixing was on point and the playlist couldn't have been more perfect. His choice of electronic songs with some wedding classics was the perfect mix. The only thing I wish that could have been different is that we had more time to dance. Thank you so much Effren @ High Profile Entertainment. We were very blessed to have you help curate our wedding atmosphere. read more

Highly recommend! Effren did a great job at our son's Bar Mitzvah. he was on time, listened to all our needs and was professional all along the way read more

Our wedding was a week ago and I'm still sore from dancing all night! He came highly recommended from our wedding planner and even though we had to reschedule our wedding twice thanks to Covid he worked with us and still made our night amazing. Effren was hands down the best DJ!!! We had a phone call before our big day where he got to know us and our music style and planned out our night and I instantly knew we were in great hands! He kept us and our guests on the dance floor all night and his love for house music was an added bonus!!!! We highly recommend!!! read more

Where do I even begin? Effren is absolutely incredible. By far, the best decision we made during our wedding planning was hiring Effren to DJ our wedding! My husband is always the one at events that people turn to to "DJ" and play music, make a playlist, etc. So finding the right DJ was super important to us. Effren was truly a no brainer for us. He is so professional, listens to all your wants and gives you advice but is not pushy. We hired a saxophonist to play alongside Effren, which was such a hit! They performed so well together and knew exactly what songs to play to continue the party the whole night! The dance floor at our wedding was packed the ENTIRE night! Our guests still talk about how fun and insane our dance floor was. Everyone tells us they've never been to such a fun wedding where literally EVERYONE danced. If you want to feel confident that your music for your entire event will be in the absolute best hands, then look no further, and hire Effren. read more

Effren was absolutely incredible to work with! He is by far one of the best dj's I've seen perform; that says a lot being that I was in the nightclub industry and have been to almost 40 weddings in my life. He is so talented and knew the perfect genres of music to play throughout the entire evening. My husband and I honestly didn't give him much guidance and he hit it out of the park! I was getting compliments throughout the entire night and even after the wedding everyone kept saying "how amazing the dj was." I'm so thankful I decided to use High Profile Entertainment! Effren was so professional and his pricing was extremely competitive. I highly recommend High Profile Entertainment for any special occasion especially your wedding! read more

We honestly don't have enough positive adjectives to describe the experience we had with high profile entertainment. Effren absolutely nailed it for our party. We really wanted someone who could read a crowd, and we are not into typical Pop music. We wanted 90s hip-hop, house, and 80s alternative and somehow he played all three genres seamlessly throughout the evening. Our guests cannot stop raving about what a fantastic job he did. We highly recommend! read more

Thanks to Effren @ High Profile Entertainment every single person at our wedding has said that "it was the most fun wedding they have ever been to". From our intro call with Effren I knew he was going to be our DJ. He is extremely professional/kind, he truly listens to what vibe you are trying to create for your wedding and he is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to music. The entire process leading up to our wedding was smooth, stress-free and organized. At our final walk through of the venue Effren came and located all of the power sources he would need to use, showed us exactly where he was going to set up, and prepared for any potential issues he may run into throughout the day. Just this alone gave my husband and I peace of mind for the big day. As far as music planning, Effren makes it organized and collaborative through utilizing Spotify playlists and Google docs. On our final call, Effren spent as much time as we needed on Zoom to ensure we covered every detail. On our wedding day Effren absolutely over delivered on the music keeping the dance floor packed. Banger after banger! Effren doesn't just hit play...he actually mixes and transitions seamlessly from song to song. Without Effren our day would not have been as magical as it was! He made the vibe immaculate and EXACTLY what we were dreaming of. 10 out of 10 times would hire Effren! read more

Effren is the best wedding dj ever! He and his team did such an amazing job setting up in the space, and the sound was perfect everywhere. He crushed MCing and did wonders at keeping the dance floor poppin! I highly recommend working with Effren, very professional and everything went so smoothly. read more

Best DJ ever!! We just had our dream wedding and had at the best wedding reception ever! Everyone danced the night away for hours and we all loved the music. In fact we are all still talking about how great the music was. Do not wait... book High Profile Entertainment IMMEDIATELY read more

Our amazing wedding planner recommended a short list of DJs, and we knew from our first call with Effren that he was our guy! We booked him in 2019, but ultimately had to reschedule our 2020 wedding due to COVID. Through the stress of all the changes to landing a new date, Effren remained a positive constant. Always friendly, flexible, and easy to work with. We experienced Effren's high energy, strong communication, and great attention to detail - all of which were super important to us - consistently through our entire wedding journey. Our our big day, Effren was super prepared (arrived early, had everything under control), professional, and seriously ROCKED our dance floor. We had so many wedding guests come to us saying it was the best music/ dance party they'd ever experienced at a wedding. This was 'music' to our ears, and we can't thank Effren enough for supporting and helping bring our Big Day vision to life. 100% recommend (and even have a family friend who booked him after our wedding!). read more

DJ Effren was the perfect choice for our wedding! He met with us multiple times in the months leading up to the ceremony and reception to practice announcing the names of our wedding party and organize our wedding timeline. He also worked with us to customize a playlist for the ceremony and reception and expertly mixed all our music. My (now) husband is Indian, so it was important to us to mix in some Bollywood music into the dance playlist. He did such a great job seamlessly blending everything together and keeping the party going! read more

DJ Effren was the perfect choice for our wedding! He was easy to communicate with and really helped alleviate a portion of our wedding planning stresses. The music was great and DJ Effren brought a great vibe to a kick ass party! Definitely recommend if you want a great DJ for your event. read more

Effren was so awesome to work with. He made planning the music for our wedding fun and stress free, and we were able to engage at a level we had time for while still making sure everything was personalized to our taste. He was responsive, professional, engaging, and thoughtful. He was also able to last minute pull together a Zoom live stream for our family members unable to make it to the wedding due to COVID-19. He brought in the tech and enable our loved ones to gather virtually and for us to have a permanent recording of our ceremony. Would 100% recommend Effren for any and all events! read more

DJ Effren was awesome! We booked him for our company holiday party and he had everyone up and dancing . Just tell him what you want and he is happy to oblige! The dance floor lights and up lights gave our massive ballroom the perfect vibe for an amazing night! We will definitely be using him next year! read more

Effren was THE BEST DJ EVER! We were originally supposed to get married in April, but had to move the date and the venue due to Covid. Effren didn't even skip a beat. He responded immediately that he was available for our new date and visited the new venue soon after to plan out the best possible setup. The day of the wedding went seamlessly as well. Effren did a great job making announcements, introducing people, and the music was FIRE. Who knew it was even possible to mix Earth, wind, and fire with Flo Rida?! Highly recommend. read more

I approached Effren from High Profile Entertainment for a live broadcast service of my wedding ceremony. Because of COVID, my and my then fiancée's (now wife) parents couldn't attend the wedding. That's why the live streaming of the wedding was very important to us. We got HPE's reference from one of our friends whose wedding Effren covered. Although I knew that Effren did a really good job at my friend's wedding I didn't know how great it was. Effren personally is very friendly, professional, and hardworking, and this shows in his work. He went out of his way (literally!!) to find the internet speed at the venue, he made sure that we know all the options available. We wanted the best of the services and were on a budget, Effren and his team gave us custom options so that we get what we want. From the start of the discussion, Effren and his team were readily available for our questions and concerns. Effren even came to the venue with us just to tell us how he plans to set up the station, and it was great. The whole setup was hidden thus never came in the way of the photographer or the guests. The camera work was amazing as per the reviews from our virtual guests. Our parents felt like they were here with us. And that's all what we wanted. Effren also covered our reception with the same brilliance. He was very accommodating and efficient throughout the function. We made some very spontaneous choices and Effren and his team delivered every single one of them. I will very strongly recommend HPE to anyone who is planning to stream (Youtube/Zoom etc) at any event. I don't usually say this but HPE is kind of the best in the business. Thanks Rohan and Vishakha read more

Too bad I can't hit 5 STARS 100 times over because this is how ELATED I was with DJ Effren!!!! He was professional, proficient, kind, accommodating to all my musical requests, on time, and went the extra mile to make sure my 50th birthday party was beyond memorable!!! Honestly, I would change any date hosting an event until he was available. Thank you again Effren for everything!!!! read more
