We've had the pleasure of working events with Del and Entertainment Now. He is professional and friendly - just what a happy couple would want at their reception.
Del from Entertainment Now is a wonderful person to work with. I have worked with him for many years and he is always professional in his manner and work. Del always dresses in a tux and is knowledgeable in his selection of music. He knows how to get the reception and party started. I consider it a pleasure to work with him.

Del is a wonderful DJ. He is the ultimate professional -- kind, caring, patient, up to the minute on the latest music, sound gear, venues, etc. I am never so happy when I know that he is to be part of a wedding ceremony that I will perform because I know that everything will run smoothly and be stress free. Entertainment Now is at the top of my DJ list. regards, Rev. Stephanie Raphael
Del was the DJ at our wedding and I recommend him to anyone! He was exactly what we were looking for; professional, fun, great music selection, and he kept the reception on schedule! He really listened to what we requested and wanted out of the evening and made it happen just as we wished!
Del at Entertainment Now is a great DJ who can make any party special. He very proffessional and always courtious. He knows how to get your party started and keep it going. I would highly recomend him to DJ your event. Cassie Hunt/Cassie's Custom Cakes
Del is a class act. Professional and always hits the mark with his events.
I've worked with Del on numerous occasions while I was working as a Catering Manager. He is always professional, very helpful,(he's even carried things for me!), and is always on time! You won't have to worry about anything if you hire him.
I have worked with Del from Entertainment Now and as your DJ, he will keep your event running smoothly and your guests partying. Del is extremely professional and takes a lot of pride in his work. Taffy Gonzalez www.alltraditions.net

Tips and Advice
Ask your DJ if they will use 4 speakers at your Wedding Reception...two on the floor and two on Stands is what they should use! Two on the Floor give you Bass and two on stands will reach every part of your wedding venue, most DJ’s only use two speakers and if they put them on the floor they will have Bass... however, when your guests are dancing their bodies will block the sound and if they only use two on stands they will not have the Bass..., think of it this way...how many speakers does your car have in it and if you do not know count them and you will find that the more speakers the better the sound!! I spread the sound around the room and never use less then 4 speakers and in larger venues I use 6 speakers with sound processing....do they have sound processing or even know what this is? Ask for a photo of the sound system and speakers that your DJ will use at your Wedding Reception, would you order a car and not see a photo of what you are ordering:

There are many Beautiful location’s here on the Central Coast Of California like Beach Resort’s , Wineries and other special venue’s, if you are interested in getting married on the Coast give me a call at 805-461-6741 and I will direct you to some Great Ceremony & Receptions locations!
