Thank God for Ernest! I had procrastinated and procrastinated on booking a DJ for my July 3 wedding, getting as far as researching online and bookmarking a few of interest. So in June, I start flipping out because I still don't have a DJ! I forget the exact connection, but a neighbor's friend is the mother of Ernest, or something like that, so I was recommended to go with Masquerade. I could not be more pleased with the decision! He is professional and does his best to find out what music we wanted played. One DJ I had started to look more into sent this ridiculous song list, telling me to check the ones we liked...I was SO overwhelmed. Besides, some songs I may like and not know their title, and there was no way I was going to google or youtube every title on the list I didn't recognize to check it - who has time for that? Anyway, Ernest has a sheet where you list a few songs you would specifically like during dinner, and also list a few songs during the dancing part of the reception. He really broke everything down and clarified it in a way that really made me feel good about him. He explained that with the toasts and the bouquet toss, etc etc, he doesn't need a giant list of songs from me, because in reality, there will not be 100 songs played - time simply does not permit! He does have a huge database that you can browse online, and any song that he does not have, it is very easy for him to get it for you. Another wonderful quality with him is that he is flexible - our budget was a little tight, and he came down a lot for us in price but not in quality at all; he still set up a great sound system and the lights with it. Our ceremony/reception site staff, at Granberry Hills, was also well acquainted with him (on a first-name basis), which further lent to his credibility as a trusted and experienced DJ, which we were looking for. We would not have had a reception if it was not for Ernest, and it all turned out great!

DJ Masquerade was the best part of my wedding because all of my friends and family had the best night and danced from beginning till the big send off. Ernest was dressed in a tuxedo and the system and lights were really great. I am very happy with the communication and service I received during the process and especially at my reception.

Ernest provided excellent service and was a delight to have work our wedding. Worked great with us, as my hubby picked out 90% of the music! Ernest plugged all those songs in, mixed in a few more and all our guest danced the night away and raved about the "awesome DJ"!

Great job and a pleasure to work with. The DJ tried everything to get people out there to dance and worked really hard to make people happy. It was just too hot (June 20th in South Texas) and the venue's air conditioning was not working but our DJ worked so hard to play what people wanted to hear and get everyone dancing. He was very attentive to my husband and I and was very considerate of what we wanted and didn't want to hear. He did a fabulous job of keeping our wedding on pace with our time schedule. The online bill pay was a great plus, too. Easy to work with and easy to dance to! I would recommend for future brides!

DJ Masquerade responded with the following comments:

Amy, this is Ernest and I just saw your wonderful review and it is so very important to all of us and for future brides to see feedback like this because each wedding is so Very important. Thank you so much for your input and I will pass this along to Jesse the DJ assigned for your reception. Jesse has been a DJ with DJ Masquerade for many years and he always does his best to accomodate all ages and all music styles and I know Bertha from Los Encinos really likes Jesse and all of our DJ's from DJ Masquerade because she knows it is going to be a success so she has us on her approved vendor list like many other facilities like the Club at Sonterra, The Dominion, all three Hyatts, the Marriott and many other facilities. I know you will have a wonderful marriage and if you have another family member or co worker looking for a professional DJ Service please keep DJ Masquerade in mind.

This DJ was perfect. He played every song I wanted, and knew what to play to keep people dancing. And, he was very easy to get in touch with before the wedding. I HIGHLY reccommend this company.

They were on time, played the right music, and kept the reception moving so that is wasn't boring. The DJ was wearing a tux, the owner made my selection really easy because he was friendly and answered all my questioned without a problem.
My only complaint is that when it was time to leave and the carriage was waiting I asked him to turn the music off NOW, because we needed to leave he didn't. It was irritating but not enough to not recommend. An all around good experienc

I would definitely recommend DJ Masquerade to anyone. I worked with the owner, Ernest, who was very nice and professional, and very eager to make my day special. He worked out his schedule to personally come DJ my wedding, which was very considerate. Also, he worked with the price being that I had a mid day wedding, which was nice as well.

Well, he did a good job at getting the people out there. He only played about 20% of what we had requested. We noticed that the people were really not into the music being played, so we made some requests. He said, "Sure." It took almost 20 minutes for him to change the style of music. When we were leaving we wanted to say goodbye to our guests before retiring for the night. We wanted to leave before everyone was gone, but in asking him for the microphone and telling him to turn down the music, everyone was gone. It took an hour of us telling him we wanted to leave for him to turn off the music. The only reason he stopped the music was because everyone was gone. We were literally the last people to leave, other than my parents and the groom's parents.

My husband and I were very disappointed with the DJ service provided. Great length were gone through to fill out the forms and surveys provided by the company ahead of our ceremony and we were assured that we would get what we wanted. On the big day, however, we surely did not get what was requested. Although all of our guests enjoyed themselves and had a great time, we were displeased with our service. We might have been better off with our own mirror ball and an iPod.
