    Versatile, professional and extremely talented

    We met and hired Michael Cruz (DJ Cuban) through Dan Goldman Events in search of a DJ and MC to cover our ceremony and reception. The year was 2021, so you can imagine our collective desire to party and to really interact and engage with our guests during the reception given how quickly the day passes. Michael worked with us and helped us trim/edit the ceremony music, and he executed the reception perfectly. He transitioned seamlessly from/among our own EDM selections, traditional wedding pop songs, and his own additions based on reading the crowd. We received so many unsolicited compliments from our guests about the music - some said it was the most fun they've ever had dancing at a wedding. The spirit carried on even after the wedding ended, as most of our guests went out to the off-site afterparty and we know they are usually not the ones to stay out past midnight! We highly recommend DJ Cuban for all celebrations!

    If you want your wedding music to BANG - hire DJ CUBAN!

    Book DJ Cuban if you want a party that everyone will remember. I knew that two things mattered a lot to me regarding the guest experience - FOOD and MUSIC.

    My husband and I knew exactly the type of music we wanted played and we provided a long playlist of song options. Even though I had a small wedding (therefore a spaced out dance floor) the PARTY WAS HOT. Everyone was dancing the entire time. My father in law (who hates dancing) kept repeating how absolutely fun the party was including the music! By the way, my father in law DID end up dancing so that's how you know it was FUEGO!

    I also LOVED how the DJ could tell we were hype and ready to play the more not safe for work (NSFW) music. My friends and I were having the time of our lives. Honestly, party of the century thanks to his music and mixing skills. I loved that we had a variety to please the multiple crowds that were there. He was also very kind throughout the process and responsive. Hire Michael Cruz if you want amazing music and the party of a lifetime!

    Michael Cruz's reply:

    Melissa, thank you for the kind words. Your wedding was so much fun. Your guests and family came ready to celebrate and I LOVED IT. Thank you for choosing me as your DJ for your special day.

    Everyone had a great time!

    Michael did a great job at our wedding! We were looking for a bilingual DJ with experience doing multicultural weddings, and Michael was recommended to us. The recommendation was spot on, cause he picked a perfect mix of music that got everyone at the wedding dancing! He sent as a user-friendly online form to use for planning before the wedding, which we really appreciated because it gave us plenty of time to work through details and change our preferences as we got closer to the wedding. We had a pretty short list of requested songs but a lot of artists we didn't want played, and Michael followed all of our requests perfectly. And his choices were spot on! We got lots of compliments on the music throughout the wedding. He also was a great MC for the evening, which was important for us since we didn't have a wedding planner. Thank you Michael for helping make our wedding everything we hoped for!

    DJ Michael Cruz (DJ Cuban) was the absolute BEST! The dance floor was exactly how we wanted it the entire night---packed! He was so helpful in planning and reached out to us before we even thought about reaching out to him :) He made the last few weeks of planning so much easier. He listened to exactly what we wanted and executed perfectly.

    He killed it as MC. He stuck right to the timeline while also being flexible with last minute changes we wanted at the reception. He was never "cheesy," and instead did a great job of "pumping up" the guests to get the party started! The night flowed perfectly! He had me send a recording of each bridal party member's name so that the pronunciation would be spot on.

    He also KILLED it with the music! I gave him a play-list with "must" plays and "maybe" plays. He picked the perfect timing for all of them to be played and the transition from one song to the next was flawless. He cut off the first dances at the exact places we asked him to.

    He ensured that all of the mic wiring was perfect so that we didn't have any issues. He was extremely professional, fun, and reliable! We cannot recommend him enough!

    We LOVED working with DJ Cuban aka DJ Michael Cruz. He was incredibly friendly, charming, detail-oriented, and helpful. We really enjoyed using his platform for planning the music for the event. In fact, the platform brought to life for us how the wedding would flow, helping us identify details we hadn't thought about. On the day of the wedding, he and his assistant were radiating positive and relaxed energy that was so helpful to us as we buzzed around getting ready for the ceremony and rehearsal. He definitely got the party going and had our guests out all night on the dance floor - exactly what we wanted. We'd highly recommend him to anyone.

    The DJ is the backbone of a great wedding reception, and Michael Cruz did not disappoint in the slightest! He was wonderful and a pleasure to work with. We had very specific songs and a lot of moving parts to our ceremony and he was spot on with everything. I was able to just relax and let him do all the work and control the flow of the evening. He had the dance floor packed and I tried to get there and stay there as much as I possibly could. He is a true professional and we will always recommend him in the future :) Thank you for helping to make our day so special.

    Michael showed himself as a truly professional DJ. For our wedding, we needed a bilingual DJ to make announcements and choose appropriate music in English and Spanish. And Michael did a wonderful job. He had the music ready-to-go so the ceremony ran on time. During cocktails and dinner, he kept a pleasant mix of music in the background. He made announcements that kept both sides of the family well-informed. When it came time for dancing, he successfully mixed American and Latin songs that kept everyone on the dance floor. We would gladly book him again for a major event.

    DJ Michael Cruz just did our wedding this past November and he was AMAZING! He kept everyone on the dance floor and kept the party going! He was super responsive and willing to make last minute changes for us! Including adding an extra 3 hours of music to our wedding day a couple of days before the big day!
    He also managed to mesh our music styles very well! I told him I wanted some Hispanic music at the wedding to appeal to my Mexican family and he transitioned between the different styles smoothly!

    We had DJ Cruz at our wedding, we are a bilingual couple (English/Spanish), DJ Cruz is bilingual, he was awesome!!!

    DJ Cruz had the party dancing all night long. He is able to read the wedding guest and to play the music that gets the party going. He is very kind, flexible and easy going. The day of the wedding I forgot the garter and thus I tossed my bouquet and my husband tossed his boutonniere at the single men, DJ Cruz was flexible and able to always keep the party going.

    He was never intrusive, and we all did the cupid shuffle at the end of the party :)
    I highly recommend him! Classy, fun and kind!
