The Marvelous Milton!

I'm unsure how to start this review because I can't even find the words to express how amazing Milton is and how grateful I am for everything he did for our wedding. Long review below:

From our first conversation on the phone I knew we'd move forward with Milton. I could immediately tell how positive and invested he is in his work. His passion for music shined and I knew he would commit to doing an incredible job (which he did)

Milton was very communicative and patient as we took our time to detail everything we wanted. We hired him to play acoustic at our Lakeside ceremony and DJ our reception. I requested a unique song for my bridal entrance and Milton was more than willing to learn that song for me. He offered his help to ensure all the sound at the ceremony was taken care of, even for the Officiant (which heads up, not all Ceremony musicians assist with this!) He met several times with myself and the wedding planner to ensure he understood the flow of the event and our specifics wants.

The day of we were surprised with some serious snow and had to change all of our plans within the hour. Milton jumped right in to re-arrange and ensure we were covered, I'm so appreciative of his flexibility. Everyone enjoyed the live music at the ceremony; he is truly so talented, warm, welcoming - it's one thing to know how to play an instrument, it's another thing to know how to bring people together. He's truly amazing.

Now for the ceremony, I knew I wanted "live, vibrant, high energy" - I wanted someone who could get a sense of the crowd and match that in the moment (i.e if we're vibing to a high energy song, don't kill the vibe by playing a slow song immediately after) Milton EXCEEDED the bar! He listened to what I wanted to be played and mixed an incredible set! I'm still living off a high from how fun our wedding was. Guest were getting up in the middle of our meal service to dance, it was so good!

It didn't feel like Milton was a vendor at our wedding, even while DJing he had the best attitude, danced along with the guest - he was a part of our day and I won't forget it.

Finally, as Milton was packing up to leave - my lively guest moved the party to the pool area and decided to jump in (fun) - Milton came over with his guitar and played for us as other guest joined in the fun jumping in the pool fully dressed. It made for some epic videos and it was so cool of him to do that.

I can't overstate my recommendation for Miltons services and I can't thank him enough for helping to make our day as incredible as it was. He is a talented Musician, DJ but best of all just a really great person to work with.

Amazing DJ!

My husband and I hired Milton for our October 2025 wedding in Lake Tahoe and he was absolutely fantastic to work with. I cannot say enough positive things about Milton. Milton's passion for music really shines through in his work as he created such an exciting environment for ourselves and our guests. He provided our pre-ceremony, ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception music and at every point elevated the atmosphere. We were an adult only wedding and he was able to mesh music geared toward different age groups seamlessly.
He was very easy to work with and very thorough when it came to our music wants and needs. His priority was to involve us prior to, and during our event, to deliver a musical experience exactly how we envisioned it- and boy did he do just that. We had guest after guest continually praise the music throughout our event, which my husband and I loved hearing. His talent for DJ'ing is evident the moment he starts playing his set. What we loved most about having Milton as our DJ was his unique ability to blend his DJ skills with other musicians as we had a "hybrid DJ" that included a saxophonist and trumpeter- that was a game changer. The hybrid DJ aspect was really unique and made our reception so much more lively and fun. My husband and I were already so excited to see what Milton could provide us prior to our wedding and cannot express how even more thrilled we were after experiencing his services firsthand. He truly knows how to bring the party. Anyone who hires Milton for their DJ needs will not regret their choice.

Best Music Ever!

Milton Merlos was amazing! We hired him for our daughter's wedding & we loved everything he did. He played the guitar for the ceremony and the cocktail party and he was terrific. He was the DJ for the reception and he was phenomenal! He started by celebrating with all of our guest on the dance floor, and he kept up that momentum until the party came to an end. He played a variety of upbeat, fun, music, and he had fantastic lighting. He was welcoming and engaged the guests with fun and celebration the entire day and night! Can't wait to hire Merlin for our next event!!! Thank you.

Incredible Musician and DJ!

Milton went above and beyond for our wedding. I was very adamant that I wanted a violinist for our ceremony and a guitarist for our dinner, and Milton came through in the best way. He also stayed and DJ’d for us and kept the party going all night playing songs that everyone at the wedding wanted to hear!! He was super responsive, so nice, and played his music beautifully. Everything went off perfectly including speeches and first dances with him as our MC! I would highly recommend using him for any sort of wedding or party or ceremony!!!

Book Milton as your DJ

Milton was the best! He listened to all of our song requests and perfectly curated an amazing vibe for our wedding. He was mixing songs together and kept the day going exactly how we pictured. When booking vendors we had never heard Milton DJ before so he was kind of a wild card, he exceeded all expectations. He made the day amazing and I had multiple people come up to us and said how great the DJ was. If you do anything, going with Milton will not disappoint.

THE BEST DJ with charisma!!!!

We truly hit the jackpot with Milton Merlos as our wedding DJ! From the very beginning, Milton was an absolute professional—easy to communicate with, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our day unforgettable. Even though we were planning a destination wedding all the way from Texas, he made the process feel effortless. On the actual day, an unexpected hailstorm threw our whole timeline off, but Milton adapted without missing a beat. He read the room perfectly, kept the energy up, and helped everyone stay in great spirits. His ability to shift gears and still create an electric, joyful atmosphere is something we’ll never forget. The night ended with the dance floor packed, full of love, laughter, and incredible music. It was truly the most perfect day, and we know it wouldn’t have been the same without Milton’s talent and presence. If you’re looking for a DJ who’s professional, intuitive, and ready for anything—Milton is your guy. We’re beyond grateful for him!

Amazing Musician and DJ!

Milton has been the musician/DJ at two weddings for our family (both of our daughter's weddings). One of our daughter's good friend also had him work at her wedding.
Milton is such a talented artist. He brings beauty with his music and FUN with his DJ skills! He's flexible and reasonably priced. We felt so lucky to have him as our musician/DJ at our youngest daughter's and now son-in-law's wedding this past weekend! What a gem!!!

The best dj ever

I got married on November 2, 2024 at the Tahoe Ridge Resort and Milton was our DJ. I can honestly say I have never had so much fun before, all thanks to Milton! He kept people on the dance floor all night. In fact, I had other vendors telling me that he was the best DJ they have ever seen. All of our guests were complimenting Milton on his music choices and upbeat/positive personality. Before our wedding, Milton was responsive via email and phone and really tried to understand what vibes we were going for on our big day. He absolutely listened and executed perfectly. I cannot say enough great things about Milton and would HIGHLY recommend him for other wedding/events!

You need Milton at your wedding!

Wow!! To say Milton is phenomenal at what he does is such an understatement. We were blessed to have Milton be our DJ, MC, and play the Spanish guitar at my Lake Tahoe backyard wedding and it was so dreamy. He was a pleasure to work with from beginning consultation to the end of the night. He had a beautiful set up and going between two locations was seem less despite him being a one man show. Inspo from beginning to end was bridgerton but with a Mexican Latin flare and to say that was achieved would be an understatement. Milton was even kind enough to do all announcements in English and in Spanish for our bilingual wedding making it feel even more tailored to us and our guests. Highly recommend Miltons Spanish guitar package as it made the day so memorable for us and our guests. If I could relive and plan my wedding over again I would hire Milton every time.
