Erick was one of our best choices!

Erick was absolutely fantastic at our wedding back in September. He was super easy to work with, has great taste in music, and did a great job at keeping the party going all night long. I can't recommend him enough!

My Fellow DJ (Erick) is absolutely incredible!

We recently had the pleasure of having My Fellow DJ (Erick) as the maestro of melodies at our wedding, and we couldn't be more thrilled to share our experience! From start to finish, he crafted an atmosphere that was nothing short of magical.
First and foremost, he demonstrated an unparalleled professionalism throughout the entire process. From our initial consultation to the big day itself, he was attentive to our preferences, responsive to our requests, and truly dedicated to making our wedding dreams come true. Erick’s passion for music and commitment to creating the perfect ambiance were evident in every interaction.

When it came to the actual event, Erick took our wedding to the next level with an incredible playlist that had everyone on their feet. From the ceremony to the reception, the transitions between songs were seamless, and the energy on the dance floor was electric. It was evident that he had a deep understanding of how to read the crowd and keep the party going. Our guests were raving about the music selection long after the last dance! He also went above and beyond to make our wedding uniquely ours. He skillfully incorporated our favorite songs, respected our do-not-play list, and even surprised us with a few special touches that added an extra layer of joy to the celebration.

My Fellow DJ is not just a DJ; He is a true artist who understands the power of music to elevate moments and create lasting memories and we’re forever grateful to him for such an instrumental role in making our wedding day the magical experience we had always envisioned.

Erick is the best!!

Erick seriously made my wedding SO much fun!! Music is a very important thing to both myself and my wife, so we naturally had so many concerns when it came to hiring a dj. We worried about our dj not getting our vibe (we both have very specific music tastes and hate the popular songs that are played at weddings, especially the structured group dances) and we also wanted to strike a balance where the music represented our tastes but also were songs that everyone could enjoy. Erick was very good about communicating his style and also gave us many opportunities to let him know what we were going for. From the initial consult to us meeting for a beer to go over details, I felt like Erick really listened and wanted to tailor the night’s soundtrack to our interests. He asked for a playlist from us to get a general sense of what we wanted (this helped tremendously because we both love creating playlists) and he was able to play a lot of songs from the list but also incorporate popular songs people enjoyed that also fit the same mood/feeling! Everything he played flowed together really nicely and he even graciously took requests from folks on the spot. Erick was also great at making announcements, hyping people up, but also was able to feed off of the crowd’s energy. Another thing that stood out to me was that Erick noticed my 10 year old nephew taking an interest in his dj set up and allowed him to co-dj for a bit!! That was really cute and meant a lot to me :)! Do not hesitate to hire Erick- he is a great communicator and knows how to help you deliver a party that everyone will remember!

Hire erick

Thanks to Erick/My Fellow DJ, I was able to live out my dance floor wedding dreams. We provided him with a playlist of some songs we were thinking and he BLEW US AWAY. Not only was the music outstandingly lit, he was extremely professional, helpful, and had the best vibes all weekend. Couldn't recommend using Erick for your wedding enough - best night of my life thanks to him.

The best to ever do it

Erick could not be easier to work with. Not only easy to work with but someone you want at ALL weddings because he is that good of a time. When it comes to the music, MC, and all other aspects, he absolutely crushes it. We put trust in him and let him do his thing, and had the best wedding ever. Erick Copon for life.

Best ever!

I know Eric personally and would highly recommend his services! He is kind and professional, yet laid back in the best way. He gives you full control of the process, but if you’re like me he will also make a playlist based on your taste. All of my guests said that outside of how great the bride and groomed looked, the DJ was their favorite part!

Best Night Ever!

Erick was amazing! I’ve been to a lot of weddings and he is definitely the best I’ve experienced. Everything went perfectly, from our ceremony music to our intros and reception. Many of our guests even made a point to compliment the background music during cocktail hour and dinner. When it was time to start the party Erick really got it going! It was a non stop party with no lulls! Our wedding had a wide range of personalities and ages and every single person got on the dance floor. We can’t thank Dj El Capone enough!

Exactly the DJ I was looking for!

Erick was professional, flexible, energetic - everything you would want in a DJ and emcee! From the ceremony to cocktail hour to reception, he brought all the good vibes. I have seen Erick DJ at other events before and I was so happy he was available for our wedding. I wanted party music that flowed seamlessly and kept people on the dance floor and he did perfectly! Also, we opted for the lighting package and it was definitely worth it!
Many, many people have asked who our DJ was and praised him highly because the night was so fun. I will refer him to anyone who asks.

Best DJ in VA!

Eric happens to also be my husband's barber, which is how we initially found him. We loved his easy going demeanor and cool style. For such a stressful process, Eric really helps keep you comfortable. He also has a ton of experience working weddings, local events, and DJ's at bars all over Richmond+Va Beach most every weekend.

Eric makes the process very easy and fun, by allowing you to provide him a a playlist of music you generally like. He is not your standard DJ, and keeps the party going continuously by mixing tracks back-to-back. Multiple people who attended our wedding told us this was by far the most fun they'd had partying at a wedding. I had to take a couple breathers myself from constant dancing...All in all, we are so happy we chose Eric, and would recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding DJ.

Worth the wait!

I've been waiting since 2017 to have Erick as the DJ for my wedding. (Note: I was super single and didn't find my dude until 2019). The moment I got engaged, I made sure to book him ASAP. I mean I was competing to get my vendors before the rescheduled 2020 weddings booked him. I wasn't gonna let him slip through my fingers. He was super easy to work with at the wedding and even during the preparations. Need a DJ? Hit My Fellow DJ, Erick, up. Trust me, he will not fail you.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
