Best dj ever!

Anthony was truly an amazing DJ! He had us and our friends and family on the dance floor ALL night! I am Hispanic and my husband is white and he played a great combination for all people, including different age groups! He was great at keeping us on track for first dance/speeches/entrances etc. Working with him has been such a seamless process and he is so fun and easy going! I would definitely recommend them and will use them for any future event!

Dance floor of my dreams

I couldn't be happier with our decision to hire DJ El Bambino for our wedding. My husband and I had a multi-cultural Jewish and Dominican wedding, and I was SO worried about catering to our very diverse crowd. I didn't want any awkward transitions between genres, or a dead dance floor. On the day of the wedding, everything went perfectly and people were on the dance floor all night. Anthony was professional, fun, and so easy to work with. He understood exactly what we wanted, and I would hire him again & again!

Absolutely wonderful - just hire him!

Anthony/DJ El Bambino from Effuse Entertainment was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! From start to finish, he created an unforgettable atmosphere, playing music that catered perfectly to our diverse group of guests - merengue, pop, bachata, reggaeton, rock, salsa, etc. He had an amazing sense of timing and energy, keeping literally everyone on the dance floor and excited from the first song to the last. I told him at the end of the night that one of my biggest worries/insecurities was not having anybody on the dance floor and he joked that he could hardly get people OFF the dance floor haha! Anthony seamlessly read the crowd, ensuring that every guest, of all ages, was having an incredible time.
He was so incredibly helpful even before the wedding. We wanted to combine 2 songs for our first dance and he mixed them seamlessly. He also helped my mom surprise me with a song that she serenaded to me. I was completely shocked and so moved.
Effuse also provided a photo booth that quickly became a favorite among our guests. It was so fun and interactive, with the BEST and funniest props lol. Our guests loved it.
The highlight of the night, however, was the Hora Loca! Our guests (and ourselves) were completely blown away with the high-energy experience that was created, especially with the giant dancing robot that people are STILL talking to us about 2 weeks later lmao.
Anthony’s professionalism, energy, and attention to detail truly made our wedding a night to remember. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ and entertainment experience, and we would highly recommend him and Effuse Entertainment to anyone looking for a DJ who knows how to make a party unforgettable! Just hire him, seriously!!!

Simplemente Amazing

DJ El Bambino is amazing!. He is professional, really talented, and has an excellent style. We (my husband and I) and all our guests loved him.

From the very beginning of our early meetings, he was a good listener and was able to accommodate all of our (multiple) requests and the vision we had for our wedding. DJ El Bambino was so patient with all of our back-and-forth, and he did not hesitate to provide feedback and great ideas that improved our vision.

On the day of the wedding, he was right on time (no, I think he was even early) to set up; he read the room decor and was able to implement an uplighting style that beautifully complemented and finalized the right mood of the hall. It is worth mentioning that our wedding was bilingual (English and Spanish), and DJ El Bambino seamlessly MC-ed to both audiences, making them all part of the same experience and fun. He also made everybody hit the dance floor.

You honestly can't go wrong with him. He will be our DJ on any upcoming event we might have.

They MADE my Wedding Day!

I was recommended to Effuse by a friend, and I am so thankful! I had met with other big DJ companies, and none understood my request to honor our Dominican families with the right kind of music. I met with a vendor that was appalled when I told him I did not want Suavemente played at my wedding, because, lets face it, they only play suavemente when they truly do not know culture. (if you know, you know)

When I met Anthony, he knew exactly what I meant!! Every single song at my wedding was executed to perfection, my first dance mashup was dreamy, and LA HORA LOCA was out of this world! If you are a Dominican bride, you know how important this moment is. IT was culture, vibes, and energy all in one! Effuse also did our photobooth and provided the backdrop which was amazing!

Additional brag: The staff went above and beyond! Literally, one of my nieces was crying before I was going down the aisle and they held them because I was panicking, and right at that moment I was thanking the heavens for every single of them!

To Anthony, the hora loca staff, and the photobooth staff, THANK YOU! Almost a year later and my guests still rave about the most tactful, classy, yet turnt vibes honoring my dominican culture at my wedding! I told Anthony I wanted Dyckman but classy at my wedding, and boy did he OVERDELIVER! I have recommended all of my friends and love to see how great they make their weddings also!

Effuse Entertainment

Effuse and DJ El Bambino did an amazing job at incorporating a diverse set of music at our event. MC’ing the event in both English & Spanish, getting everyone on the dance floor and keeping them there! He catered the music perfectly to our guests. The photo booth was a hit! We have received nothing but glowing reviews for our wedding and Effuse was a major part of that. Highly recommend!

Amazing! Would definitely recommend!

Anthony was our DJ and MC for our wedding and he did an amazing job. We couldn’t be happier with his services. Since the beginning of the planning of our wedding he was very responsive, professional and definitely brought our vision to life. We had the most amazing time at our wedding because of him. He kept everyone entertained the whole night and the dance floor was never empty. We will definitely be using his services again and will recommend

Nothing less than amazing.

Everyone can not stop talking about our wedding and how good the music and entertainment was. DJ Bambino went above and beyond to make our day the best day possible. I already know one person actually booked him at our wedding for theirs and two more are interested when their time comes! You will not be disappointed. We are beyond grateful and had the time of our lives!

Best wedding ever

As part of any event, music is an important factor. So when searching for a DJ we knew we had to find someone that could mix our eclectic variety of music choices. Anthony was the DJ for us the moment we found him on IG! During our first meeting he really made sure to capture what was important for us on our special day. On the day of the wedding, Anthony provided the ceremony music, cocktail hour music, and then killed it at the reception. He ensured the vibes were high and all our song choices were played. He even made sure to check in with us throughout the night to make sure we were happy! DJ EL Bambino is literally one of the bests and you will not be disappointed in his services!! Thank you so much Anthony for making our special day perfect!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
