About

The perfect wedding reception is about attention to detail and seamless execution. That is what I deliver. With over 15 years of experience, I have deejayed over 200 weddings, as well as birthdays, anniversaries, corporate events, clubs and lounges. I strive to make each event unique, tasteful and fun!

My music selection is vast and diverse. I can play top 40, disco, motown, hip-hop, salsa, merengue, reggae, reggaeton, middle eastern, hindi, brazilian, african, french, etc. I specialize in international and multi-ethnic weddings, and I'll make sure that both sides of the aisle have a great time. Great music needs to be played on great equipment and I supply a state-of-the-art sound system to deliver clear and beautiful music and 2 wireless microphones for introductions, toasts and announcements. I am bi-lingual and can MC all the introductions and announcements in Spanish and English. I will supply you with a Wedding Format Sheet to list the members of the Bridal Party, the first dance and any other pertinent information, and a list of music to facilitate your selection. I can also provide an extra sound system and lavalier (lapel) mic, if needed for the ceremony, a projector and screen, so you can share special moments with family and friends, elegant uplighting to enhance the look of your venue, and monogram lighting to personalize your special day.

Your wedding is one of the most important events of your life. Don't take a chance on an inexperienced DJ with mediocre equipment and limited knowledge of music! Someone always comes up to me after every event to thank me for the wonderful time they had, and to tell me how bad the DJ was at the last event they attended. Don't be that event! My rates are very reasonable for a DJ with my experience. Give yourself some peace of mind and call me, DJ Dario, at 240-899-3549, if you have any questions, or to book your date.

Dario did an amazing job at our wedding! He was very easy to work with, and took our vision for the musical entertainment and really ran with it. We would highly recommend him for any event needing DJ services!

We hired DJ Dario Claudio for our wedding 10/10/2015. I know my review is kind of late but we were just reminiscing about our fun wedding and how everyone was on the dance floor non-stop!! Dario was super responsive and professional throughout the wedding planning. He is an amazing DJ that was able to provide the perfect music/MC services for a Latino/American wedding. We loved working with him and he really made our day special. I would highly recommend him to any bride looking for a kickass DJ.

DJ Dario was fantastic! He let us have a lot of input, but also supplemented our list with songs that were sure to get everyone out on the dance floor. If guests' interest in a song was waning, he would immediately fade into a new track to reel them back in. He is also the nicest guy. I would highly recommend him.

Dario is one wonderful DJ and Master of Ceremonies! His talent and professionalism were outstanding. He took care of everything, and was extremely pleasant to work with before and during the wedding reception. I can't recommend him enough.

I was referred to DJ Dario by a dear friend (who had a great wedding with him many years ago!) You are in solid, assured hands with Dario! He complemented our taste in music and seemed genuinely excited about our songlist, and it showed. I'm still sore from how much I danced this weekend at my wedding! He provided bonus beautiful uplighting, and put us at ease during the reception and showed up promptly, and was flexible with last-minute changes. He was friendly, classy, and fun while MC'ing the events. Communication via email was easy-peasy. His rates are some of the best around considering his level of experience and professionalism! Thank you so much for a super wedding and fun night, DJ Dario!

DJ Dario is the BEST!! He deejay-ed our October 3rd wedding, and from the moment the dance music started, the dance floor was filled for the rest of the night up to the very last song, a mark of a GREAT DJ! My parents told me they heard from friends of theirs who said they hadn't danced that much in years! :-) And our photos from the reception prove we had everyone on the floor dancing at some point, young and old. Dario knows exactly how to feel out and entertain a crowd of all ages, and very clearly loves what he does and brings that joy to your party. He was very responsive in the planning phase, discussed our reception format and playlist with me at length to get a feel for what we wanted, and was all-around extremely polished and professional on the day of as the MC. Also the lighting he provided was just perfect-- from the uplighting to the monogram gobo and dance floor lights-- just added so much to the party. We cannot recommend more highly!

DJ Dario was awesome!! I was looking for a bilingual DJ for my Latin/Greek wedding, and I’m so glad I found him! He is very responsive with emails and communication. He has all the equipment you can think of and was very professional on my wedding day! Most importantly, he kept the party going the WHOLE night! The Greek song that I requested was a big hit and the uplights and gobo looked amazing!! Thanks again Dario, you rock!!

DJ Dario was AMAZING! I would recommend him to anyone. He was friendly, professional and incredibly helpful. He allowed us to see him at work before we decided to accept his services. We could tell he was more than a DJ, he was the Master of Ceremony showing his many years of experience in the entertaining business (in our case a wedding). The planing phase was smooth and DJ Dario was easily accessible. On the wedding day he was ready on time and performed superbly! My family is Colombian and my wife's is both American and Mexican so pleasing everyone in the crowd was difficult but DJ Dario did just that. The reception was an incredible success (an amazing party!) and it was in large part due to his knowledge as a DJ (he knows how to read a crowd and his music selection was spectacular). Not only did he perform his duties as MC/DJ but he was also an incredible help with the smooth operation of the reception. Overall, our experience with DJ Dario was exceptional and I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a MC/DJ for any event but particularly for multicultural wedding.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
