We hired Monterey Bay Entertainment for our wedding and we loved working with Manny and his team!…read morePrior to our wedding we had several meetings with Manny where we discussed timelines, music choices and he made several great suggestions. Manny provided the microphones for our ceremony (on the groom and officiant), was the DJ for our reception, provided mic's for our Mariachi band and a mirror booth. They really know how to keep people on the dance floor! It truly was a pleasure to work with them and I highly recommend them for your next event !

We just wrote this as a referral for someone looking to hire Manny and his team but it is so true…read moreso I just wanted to cut and paste lol. "We loved working with them! We had a lot of specific little things we wanted to do for our wedding (lots of music cues, logistics for different points of the reception, etc.), and Emmanuel (Manny, as we called him) was very helpful. They have an online system that lets you put really specific instructions in, but even after we'd uploaded the songs we wanted, we were able to call Manny a day or two before the wedding and walk through some small changes, which everyone on the same page with what was in our head. They really made sure we felt like we could give them as much detail as possible, and it wouldn't overwhelm them - it would just make them better at accomplishing what we were looking for. But they were also REALLY good at improvising - we didn't always have a packed dance floor (due to lower attendance numbers than we expected), but the DJ would read the room and switch over to a few slow dances, and that got some more people dancing. And then once he felt there were a good number of people on their feet, he'd go back to the upbeat music we'd discussed. It was such a smart move, and a clear sign that they're really good at taking the temperature/vibe of your wedding and making it happen! Manny was our MC, and he brought a DJ and two women to run the photo booth. They were all excellent, and we got a lot of great compliments about the music and photos for the next several days."

He was extremely personable and I could tell he had a lot of experience in the industry. Forward to two weeks before the event and he had prepared questions to make sure the day went smoothly. I provided several playlists for him the day of the event. Sun showed up to set up about 2 hours before the event to make sure his equipment was up and running. His system sounded amazing! During the event, he was able to read the room and adjust the music to the mood of the party and played all of the songs I recommended. More mellow tunes for the dinner portion of the party and was able to facilitate the crowd. His assistant was amazing too! They were open to any suggestions and took requests from guests. They kept the vibe and had everyone on the dance floor, including the kids! Bonus was a group photo that they took so we could have an incredible memory of the night. I would not hesitate to hire DJ Sun for any event we have in the future. He did an amazing job! Hire him. You won't be disappointed.

This review is long overdue, but I absolutely have to share how incredible Leo and his team at…read moreCentral Coast Entertainment were for our wedding at Carmel Fields by Wedgewood Weddings. From the very first Zoom call, Leo went above and beyond to understand the vibe we wanted and made the entire planning process so seamless and stress-free. He genuinely cared about our vision, offered thoughtful suggestions, and made us feel confident that our day would be perfect. Lupe, our DJ, was absolutely phenomenal. He had everyone dancing all night, reading the room perfectly, and keeping the energy nonstop. Every song was perfectly timed, and our guests couldn't stop talking about how amazing he was. The dance floor was packed from the first song to the last, and it was honestly one of the highlights of the night. We also added the 360 photo booth (highly recommend!), the multimedia booth, and the smoke/cloud effect for our first dance--and these were some of the best decisions we made. The booths were a huge hit with our guests, and the smoke effect during our first dance was just magical--it made the moment feel cinematic and unforgettable. Elia, Leo's wife and our photobooth attendant, was phenomenal as well. She was warm, sweet, and made everyone feel comfortable while helping guests get the best shots. I even ran into her at my cousin's wedding six months later, and she was just as kind and engaging as she had been at our wedding, which really shows the character and dedication of the team. On top of everything, Leo surprised us with beautifully edited highlight videos of our wedding. This was completely unexpected and such a thoughtful gift--it captured all the energy, emotion, and joy of the day in a way we will treasure forever. Our guests are still talking about how professional, talented, and fun every member of Leo's team was. From setup to performance, everything was seamless, polished, and executed with so much care. Leo, Lupe, Elia, and the whole team made our wedding truly unforgettable. If you want an entertainment team that goes above and beyond, keeps your guests on their feet, and adds those extra touches that make your day magical, you absolutely cannot go wrong with Central Coast Entertainment. Choosing them was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and we will be booking them again for future events without hesitation.
