Brandon was amazing! Super easy to work with and was great at giving feedback and suggestions. He had great energy and kept the vibes high all night! The music selection was perfect and kept everyone dancing and having a great time. He took guest song requests and included songs from my playlist. Brandon was very professional, punctual, and really knew how to read the crowd. My birthday party wouldn't have been the same without him. Would definitely work with him again! read more

My wife and I got married in September at the botanical garden in Berkeley and were so fortunate to have Brandon as our DJ. From our very first call with him, he was attentive, flexible and so easy to work with. We knew music would be a huge part of our wedding (since we love concerts and festivals) and immediately felt at ease after just our first chat with Brandon. Brandon made all the planning easy with follow-up calls, an app to suggest songs for different playlists and brought all his expertise in terms of pacing, timing, and audio setup for different parts of the night including the first dance, toasts and general dance music. Throughout the night itself, Brandon was communicative and flexible. He changed up the energy and read the crowd so well! We honestly had such a blast and our guests did as well. Can't recommend him enough. Thank you Brandon! read more

We got married in November 2023 at the Berkeley Country Club and were very lucky to have Leo as our DJ! Our initial call with him was very informational and left us feeling like we would be in good hands. He was very flexible, on top of things, communicative, with great energy. He did a good job of lining up/ switching up our music to get people on the dance floor. I've never seen my family dance their hearts out and enjoy themselves so much, it was awesome! I definitely recommend the photo booth- the photo quality is great and it was a hit for all ages. Overall Dj Leo's service was 10/10! read more

See all

My husband and I got married on April 10, 2023 at the Brazilian Room at Tilden Park in Berkeley, CA. Rice Entertainment provided the photobooth for the reception. I was on the fence about getting a photobooth for the wedding but I am SO glad we did! I was such a hit with our guests - everyone loved it. Brandon was so professional and great to work with. Leading up to the big day we had a quick 20-30 min meeting to discuss the wedding colors and our vision. Brandon created a mockup of the background and print outs based on the theme that had our hashtag on it, which was such a cute take-home for our guests. Brandon and his attendant were there all night to support as needed. The photobooth itself was pretty high-end - we were able to do videos, boomerangs, photos, etc. He also brought props to take photos with which were very cute. So, so much fun and definitely worth it! 10/10 recommend. read more

If you guys don't stop searching and book ... you are crazy!! Hands down was the highlight of our wedding on 7/3.. everyone asked for his contact information and we will definitely be using DJ Leo in the near future!! Now go book! read more

Rice Entertainment - Mr and Mrs Bayani - DJs Near Me

We have used Rice Entertainment for the past 2 years at UC Berkeley for our annual welcome reception for newly admitted students. Throughout the entire event, we were receiving so many compliments about the DJ and photobooth services -- they were truly the highlight of the event! Brandon is incredibly professional and offers high value for his pricing. We were in communication for about 6-8 weeks leading up until the event. The payment processing through the UC system can be time consuming, but Brandon was very patient and professional throughout the entire process. He maintained timely email communications and was sure to touch bases leading up to the event for final logistics. I even asked for a few last minute changes to the playlist and he accommodated them within just a few days notice! High level customer service. Once the main ballroom cleared out, a group of our staff and volunteers were still around and Brandon kept the energy going! He knows how to read the room and played so many great throwback hits -- it really helped to energize us after a long day of planning. We had a timeeeeee honey! It was also so convenient to bundle in the photobooth with our entertainment package. We used the open-air photobooth and the 360 photobooth and they were so much fun! The props were updated and the technology was reliable, everyone loved their physical and digital prints. I've referred other campus partners to Rice Entertainment and a friend even used them for a wedding last summer. Highly recommend -- you will not be disappointed! :) read more

Literally THE BEST DJ DUO EVER! I have hired Rice Entertainment 2 years in a row and recommend them to everyone I know. We have hired them for our giant holiday party these past 2 years and they do NOT disappoint. The vibe is perfection from start to finish. How you can please 300+ people and never lose momentum I don't know, but they've got it all figured out!! He makes the process seamless and deals with our last minute changes with no hesitation. This year we did cold sparklers on top of our normal up lights (which are matched to perfection to our theme). Always on time, always amazing. I cannot thank them enough, a good DJ can make or a break a party, and I didn't even have to think twice when booking our party this year. SO grateful that I know when hiring them, I don't have to worry about a single thing. Thank you for everything Brandon & team, can't wait to do it again next year!!!! If I could give them a million stars I would! Don't hesitate to book them, you won't regret it. read more

My company hired Rice Entertainment for an event. The amount of fun we had because of this company was only surpassed by the amount of professionalism they showed during all stages of the logistical planning. The CEO communicated promptly and offered a bespoke package to meet our needs. Our attendees danced all night and were guided to the next portion of the agenda by the DJ. We have already started the process of booking them again. A definite treat for all involved! read more

Brandon and his team were very professional and so easy to work with. On our first call with Brandon to get a quote, we were impressed that he had a personalized presentation for us. From there it was smooth sailing and we couldn't have had chosen a better DJ. The music was exactly what we wanted and kept all of our guests on the dance floor. We loved the photobooth and all of the extra props. Our wedding wouldn't have been as enjoyable without Brandon and his team. We highly recommend him! read more

Brandon did such an amazing job. During the ceremony our guests were able to clearly hear the officiant and our vows. Then he set the mood and guided all of our guest smoothly to our social gathering area. During the reception things did not go as we planned but thankfully he was able to keep us calm and adjust to our rearranged schedule. When the dancing started we forgot about all our stress and everyone had such an amazing time. Our guests never wanted to leave the dance floor! Brandon gave us everything we wanted and so much more. His professionalism, hard work, and passion truly showed in all that he did. I highly recommend Rice Entertainment for any and all events. read more

First off, DJ Leo is the best. He is super friendly, gets to know you (to know your styles with music specially)!

I've used Brandon for several DJ'ing events before and wouldn't look anywhere else . From start to finish, Brandon kept great communication, was extremely easy to work with , very flexible and willing do to anything to assure his service was given at the highest standard . He was very personable , social and knew how to keep the atmosphere positive. He did a great job with music selection and assuring the requested music was played at the perfect times . He also did a great job at MC'ing and keeping the party lively . His music / lighting equipment was legit and the sound was top notch. Usually you lose out on quality when it comes to competitive pricing . Not with Brandon! His pricing was great and his service was even better ! I will for sure use him again for any DJ'ing events in the future.! Thanks again ! read more

DJ Leo is the best! We thought we were only getting a DJ for our wedding, but he ended up being a DJ, MC, and a Coordinator/Planner. As the DJ, he kept the party going on the dance floor the entire night! He also had great advice for party songs, the schedule for the reception, and the physical layout of the wedding. I'll definitely be using this company for future events. read more
