Planning with DJ Tino was super easy. We met with him a couple days before the wedding. He went over all the special songs and songs we didn’t want to play. I had a few surprises with my songs that my husband sent to him prior to our arrival. I didn’t know what song my husband picked for our first dance, and I didn’t know what song my dad picked for our father daughter dance, which during that meeting he made sure he didn’t ruin any of those surprises for me. During the wedding, the dance floor was always full, and he always kept the party going. I still get compliments on how great he was. -

Our special day was beyond perfect, exceeding all our wildest dreams. DJ TINO played a key role in creating such an unforgettable experience. From the moment we first connected with them, their enthusiasm and professionalism shone through.
One thing that really stood out to us was how DJ TINO took the time to understand our music preferences and tailor the playlist to perfectly suit our style. The atmosphere they created with the music was just incredible, keeping everyone on the dance floor all night long. It truly felt like they understood us as a couple, and that personal touch meant the world to us.
While there were a couple of minor details that were not entirely as expected, such as a slight delay in responsiveness during the initial inquiry process, these were quickly overshadowed by the amazing energy and skill they brought to our wedding day. DJ TINO's ability to read the crowd and keep the party going was truly remarkable.
Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better DJ for our special day. DJ TINO's passion for what they do was evident in every moment, and their dedication to making our wedding day extraordinary was clear from start to finish. We are so grateful for the incredible memories they helped us create. Thank you, DJ TINO, for being a memorable part of our perfect day! -

Tino, did an AMAZING job at our wedding!! He listened to what we needed and made us extremely happy. He was also very adaptable to spontaneous requests. Tino knows what he is doing and excels at it. The Gilpins 😊 -

DJ Tino is Fantastic!
DJ Tino did an excellent job serving as both DJ and MC at our wedding! Highly organized, we were provided a detailed form to complete ahead of time for our wish list of songs and as importantly for me a "do not play list." We also met in-person to review the itinerary and we made a special last minute request that he was happily able to accommodate. The dancefloor was never empty and we were thrilled by what an excellent job he did. If you're looking for a reliable, flexible, and accommodating DJ and MC who reads the room to keep the party going, DJ Tino is for you! -

DJ TINO came recommended from a friend that was also married in Aruba. We went with him and have zero regret. Had a blast with him all night long. Awesome service and the guy is a cool as the back side of a pillow. Much appreciated man! -

Katie Sent on 04/05/2022DJ Tino was incredible!! Danced all night!
DJ Tino was incredible!! I cannot say enough good things! We had two events with him, both of which were phenomenal. Friday night we had an 100 person event with an Indian theme. At our request, he played all Indian music and everyone loved it! He went seamlessly from song to song and the whole group was amazed. On Saturday, we had a 100 person traditional western wedding. He played the best music! The next day our guests said it was the best wedding music they had ever heard. One said, “I wanted to leave the dance floor to take a break but I couldn’t leave because each song was better than the next.” Our guests danced the entire night and it was so memorable! DJ Tino was amazing to work with and did such a good job! I would love to work with him again any time, and wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ! -

Absolutely Fantastic
DJ Tino was absolutely fantastic! We had a 45 person wedding at the Marriot and explained to Tino exactly what we wanted throughout portions of the night. He nailed it, and then some. We changed it up from oldies, to 80's pop, then into house and hip hop. He knew exactly what to play and fed off the crowds energy. He did not play a single bad song and had everyone partying till the very end. All of our guests raved about him the next day. So happy we chose Tino! -

Tino was great, he’s an experienced professional with a great personality. He was interested in our happiness and did everything we asked for with a smile on his face the whole time. We intend to have him at the next family members wedding, as he’s part of our family now. Thank you Tino! -

DJ Tino is the absolute best. We had several guests ask for the playlist after our wedding. He truly made our evening an experience to always remember! -

We got to meet up with DJ Tino prior to our wedding - everything was talked about and a list of music was provided to us beforehand to fill out. He never missed a beat and kept everyone on the dance floor all night. -

Dan S. Sent on 05/04/2021DJ Tino is amazing!
DJ Tino came highly recommended to us by our resort wedding planners. He did not disappoint! He emcee’d the evening as a true professional, keeping things moving and not missing a beat. We sent in our preferred songs, important people, etc all in advance and he took it from there. Literally NOTHING went awry all night. And then the party itself... the music was amazing and the dance floor was full all night long! we got so many compliments on his skills and playlist. We couldn’t be happier with how everything with our wedding went, but among all the choices we had to make, hiring DJ Tino was one of the best. 10 out of 10! -

Aruba wedding 4/10/21
My husband, Luke, and I could not have been happier with DJ Tino. He had the party started before we even finished with our pictures prior to dinner! We came back to be introduced and everyone one of our guests, including children were on the dance floor. His energy, song choices, and friendliness were everything we could have wanted. We told him we wanted a dance party and he delivered! My only wish was that my wedding could’ve lasted longer because we didn’t want the party to end. We highly recommended DJ Tino, he is the truly the best Aruba has to offer! -

Kristen Sent on 06/23/2020Look no further! BOOK DJ TINO! He is the best!
DJ Tino was our first choice as he came highly recommended from every vendor we encountered on the island! We actually booked him before our venue! Due to the unforeseen circumstances of COVID-19 we had to cancel our wedding, but I cannot express enough how great working with Tino was. When we were visiting Aruba he took the time to sit down with us and talk about what kind of vibe and reception we wanted. He was so thoughtful and we know he would have brought it if all went according to plan. If we do end up having our wedding in Aruba he will be notified asap. Crossing our fingers that we will get to work with him again soon.
Look no further! BOOK DJ TINO! He is the best! -

When planning a wedding in Aruba you have to do a lot from reviews. We heard about DJ Tino and how we was THE BEST on the island and that HE WAS!!! He was quick to respond to all our emails cooperated with our reception and whatever they asked of him and was even willing to allow our in laws to see him play in November while visiting the island before our March wedding. We didn’t have much music picked other then the obvious first dance songs and he knew exactly what to play and when! He had everyone dancing all night long! If you are looking for a great DJ you would be missing out if you didn’t have TINO. Great guy great music and a great time! Thank you DJ Tino for making our night complete! -

DJ Tino knows how to get the party started!! We had a blast at our wedding. His transitions into new songs were seamless and he knew how to read the crowd. We got married in a resort, and we even had people watching from their balconies and dancing along with us! We were on the dance floor the entire night! -

We used DJ Tino and added on a saxophone and bongo for our wedding at the Hilton in Aruba in June 2019. Loved them all! Everyone danced and had an amazing time! Thanks so much, Maddalena and David Minkoff. Tino and the Hilton work seamlessly together. -

Jodie Sent on 12/19/2018DJ Tino throws an incredible party
DJ Tino was PHENOMENAL. We got married at Renaissance Island on November 17, 2018 and DJ Tino played music for both our ceremony and our reception. My now-husband and I are extreme procrastinators and sent DJ Tino a list of our ceremony songs and corresponding mp3s (we edited some instrumentals we wanted to walk down the aisle to) literally a couple of days before the wedding. Because we were so late, we didn't get a chance to meet with him and whatsapped with him the morning of the event. And despite all this, the ceremony was absolutely PERFECT. I was expecting chaos because of how scatterbrained my husband and I were, but DJ Tino's performance was seamless and exactly what we envisioned.
We all moved to our reception location -- again, we had told DJ Tino the names of our bridal party, toasters, and intentions for our first dance and father/bride and mother/groom dance one day before the wedding, and all the introductions went off without a hitch, absolutely perfect. (Note: I would not advise any future brides and grooms to wait until the last minute to deliver these details to your DJ, for your own mental health lol)
The reception entailed a full dance floor and the guests were constantly coming up to us during the reception saying, "This DJ is amazing!" His music choices kept everyone on the dance floor, plus every song the guests or we requested was played one or two songs later.
About 3 hours into the reception, DJ Tino conducted our Hora Loca (basically when the party ramps up many notches, it's like having Carnival during the reception) -- the bridal party distributed hats, sunglasses, boas, beads, christmas tree tinsel (lol), etc, and it was so much fun and a great way to revive any tired guests (although our dance floor was already packed anyway).
I think the best thing about Tino is that he's so likable and a lot of fun. He's a consummate professional and at the same time the type of person you want to party with. If we ever get that many people to meet up in Aruba again, we'd throw a party and hire DJ Tino in a second. -

Amanda Sent on 11/06/2018Best party ever!
DJ Tino was beyond awesome! After doing my research & reading all the reviews on different DJs I knew that I had to have DJ Tino at our wedding. Of course when having a destination wedding there are things that you hesitate about, but DJ Tino always told me don't worry & that he had us covered & that is exactly what he did! He had everyone up dancing the whole time MC'ing & playing old school & new school (literally everyone was dancing in between courses & eating while they were dancing). He gave us exactly what we wanted, he played every song on our playlist & he didn't miss a beat. Our guest ranged from 20-80 (yes even the 70 & 80 year olds were put on the dance floor dancing) & he played music that everyone was enjoying. Thank you Tino for being apart of our special day & helping us create the event of a lifetime! You were amazing! -

David Sent on 09/09/2018DJ Tino did our wedding at the Hilton Aruba on 8/31 (also coincidentally his birthday as well!!). He was awesome- tons of compliments about him from other married couples as well. The music flowed all night and he hit all the spots. Really nice and energetic guy-- totally recommend him for anyone doing a wedding on the island! -

Ashley Sent on 07/24/2018Tino went above and beyond for our wedding at the holiday inn Aruba!!! We were so impressed! Everyone was dancing and he had the whole party going all night! He even made a mix for the mother son dance we asked for and it was the a HUGE HIT!!! Could not have picked a better DJ and the dancing and music was the most important part to us!!! -
Natalie Sent on 10/22/2017We hired DJ Tino to MC, DJ, and do the lighting for our destination wedding in Aruba, and he was amazing at staying in touch with us throughout the year. The professionalism of his DJ forms (asking us for song requests) gave us confidence that when we arrived on the island he would have everything already set for us; and he did! He met us at our hotel a few days before the wedding, and we were greeted with a huge smile and warm handshake. DJ Tino felt like a friend we had known for years and we could not wait to see him in action on our wedding day.
We had hired a guitarist to play during the ceremony, and unbeknownst to us, did not show up to the wedding. DJ Tino swept in saving the day! He was able to play our selected songs moments before the processional without any of our guests knowing there was a glitch. Our friends and family had a blast groovin' and singin' along to his selections during cocktail hour, and the music played during our dinner helped to set the romantic and elegant ambiance we were dreaming of. Our lighting was beautiful, and he and our wedding planner did an amazing job of orchestrating the toasts, dances, and speeches seamlessly throughout the meal; but the reception to come was by far our favorite part!
DJ Tino's MC and DJing during the reception was completely on point. We requested a variety of dance, latin, and 90's throwbacks and boy did he deliver! All 37 of our guests were on that dance floor all night, and I cannot wait to see the photos and video coverage of all the dance-offs, sing-a-longs, and soul trains that couldn't have happened without DJ Tino.
DJ Tino was one of our favorite vendors, and we HIGHLY recommend him for his hard work, creativity, professionalism, and down right passion for what he does! -

Nicole Sent on 03/23/2022Best Wedding Playlist Ever
We hired DJ Tino pretty much instantly when we booked our venue (Hilton Aruba). Our wedding planner booked him immediately as she knew how good DJ Tino was and that his availability would be hard to come by as a result.
She was right. I gave DJ Tino a relatively obscure list of songs including 90s alternative rock, 90s-2000s rap/hip hop and 2000s pop. My only request was that no Bruno Mars, line dancing songs or Party in the USA was played (strange pet peeves of mine, but I feel like every wedding plays at least 3-4 Bruno Mars songs and plainly - I was over it). I was not sure how he would be able to make a playlist that was cohesive - but let me tell you, everyone said this was the best wedding playlist they had ever heard. Everyone had an amazing time. The only thing I wish was that I had a wardrobe change into a less cumbersome dress so I could get down even more.
There were a few cheesy older songs played like "Shout" immediately after dinner. Granted the older guests were enjoying but after the 3ʳᵈ song, I had to cut it off - and DJ Tino quickly did so.
I am planning on making a Spotify playlist (and share it) of all the music played at our wedding since everyone enjoyed it so much.
Would highly recommend DJ Tino & booking him ASAP once you've decided on your venue. -

We used DJ Tino for our wedding at the Hyatt last month and cannot express how amazing he was! We met him on the island when we arrived in Aruba to go over what we were looking for and he made sure it was done! Tino also handled our dance floor lighting and it came out beautiful! He definitely is the life of the party and if some of your guests don't dance, not to worry because they WILL if you hire DJ Tino! He had all of our guests on the dance floor and we would suggest DJ Tino over and over again! Thank you for such an amazing wedding!!! -

Juliann Sent on 10/01/2015The music for our wedding was very good. The DJ played most songs on our playlist and didn't play any from the "do no play" list. However, he never showed up for our meet & greet. I think he had another event to attend. He also never introduced himself to me (THE BRIDE)!!! I didn't speak on word to him at all... the wedding is over and still never met the guy. I think that's unprofessional. At least introduce yourself.
