We Love DJ Esteban!

I spent a lot of time messaging DJs and comparing prices before making a choice for our wedding DJ. Esteban was very communicative, helpful, friendly which naturally made us want to choose him. In addition, his services were a great value for the price. He was willing to work with us with whatever we needed and made sure that he only played music that was within our taste. Our reception was so much fun and everyone had a great time. Esteban and his crew even arrived extra early to make sure they had amble time to set up everything. My husband and I are so happy we chose DJ Esteban! Thank you for helping make our wedding night unforgettable! :)

Outstanding DJ

DJ Esteban was our DJ for our August 2026 wedding. I can’t recommend him enough. He was so professional and easy to work with. He really listened to us and paid special attention to what we wanted for our day. We wanted the dance floor packed and high energy until the bitter end, and he really read the energy of the room in real time to make sure that happened. If you’re looking for a DJ in Costa Rica, you can rest assured you’re in great hands with Esteban!

DJ Esteban Was Fantastic From Start to Finish

We loved working with DJ Esteban! He made the entire process easy from start to finish, took the time to understand our preferences, and created a playlist that appealed to guests of all ages. He had great transitions, kept the energy high throughout our ~65-person wedding, and did an excellent job reading the crowd. We especially appreciated that he played songs for the right amount of time and was quick to accommodate the few requests and suggestions we had throughout the evening. His setup was also professional and fun. We would highly recommend DJ Esteban to anyone looking for a talented, reliable DJ for their wedding or event!

Amazing experience!

DJ Esteban knew exactly what songs to play to keep our guests on the dance floor. Loved that he has add-on options to elevate the experience. We added a few extras like the LED dance floor, sparktaculars and shimmer wall - and it was so worth it! We’re so happy with how everything turned out. Definitely recommend!!

Exceptional DJ for a Truly Special Day // Un DJ excepcional para nuestro día especial

We are truly grateful to Esteban for being such a fundamental part of our special day. From the very beginning, he perfectly understood our tastes and created the atmosphere we had always envisioned for our celebration.

The dance floor was full all night; not a single person sat down. He knew exactly how to read the crowd, keep the energy at the right level, and make every song connect with both us and our guests.

Beyond his talent, we especially appreciated his professionalism, punctuality, and excellent communication throughout the entire process. It gave us great peace of mind knowing the music was in such good hands.

We would absolutely choose him again and recommend him with complete confidence. He played a key role in making our wedding truly unforgettable.

Le agradecemos a Esteban por haber sido parte fundamental de nuestro gran día. Desde el inicio entendió perfectamente nuestros gustos y logró crear el ambiente que soñábamos para la fiesta.

La pista estuvo llena toda la noche; nadie se sentó ni un minuto. Supo leer al público, mantener la energía en el punto exacto y hacer que cada canción conectara tanto con nosotros como con nuestros invitados.

Además de su talento, destacamos su profesionalismo, puntualidad y la excelente comunicación durante todo el proceso. Nos dio mucha tranquilidad saber que la música estaba en tan buenas manos.

Sin duda lo volveríamos a elegir y lo recomendamos con total confianza. Fue clave para que nuestra boda fuera realmente inolvidable.
