    Cesar is a fantastic DJ

    Cesar was our wedding DJ and he is fantastic. He was communicative, very responsive, professional and kind. He took an interest in our specific wedding vision and worked to help us bring it to life. He has great music IQ and is skillful at reading a crowd and getting them to the dance floor. He also provided our Uplights and monogram which he tailored exactly to our liking. These provided for a very fun and special evening of partying and fun vibes. Thank you Cesar for being a part of our best day ever.

    Cesar was terrific. Had our playlist set up perfect and was able to adjust to some changes during the reception.

    Professional, Adaptable, and so much Fun!

    Cesar was flexible in how much information he needed for each part of the wedding; he's able to either take a full playlist or create his own based on genres. He was a great MC and kept the dance floor full all night. Great to work with.

    Best Dj/Mc of Orange County!

    Dj Essence was such an amazing dj to work with! From the first phone call, my husband and I knew that he would be our top choice! He was very helpful throughout the process and he made sure to provide all kinds of music! He put together a playlist that was made for our wedding! He was a really great Mc and he made such a beautiful monogram that again, fit our wedding! He’s amazing! Hire him! You won’t regret it!

    Best Hype Man!

    Cesar was the best DJ we could have came across! He not only recommended music and was MC on our big day, he was also our wedding coordinator and gave us ideas to do the day of! I also want to add that he came very professionally dressed, huge plus. You don’t want a vendor to show up in jeans and a tshirt to your very fancy wedding!

    The day we met to go over details he immediately became our friend! My husband and I felt so comfortable with him. Knowing that he has a lot of experience and was knowledgeable with weddings was another plus. We knew he would take care of our event and make sure it ran smoothly.

    All we did was tell him the genres we liked, told him we wanted to add (dancing in the clouds, a monogram, up lighting), gave him the time line and didn’t worry about a thing the day of! BEST HYPE MAN! Jump in!!

    Quinceañera

    He got everyone on the dance floor!!!!!

    DJ Escence literally set the entire vibe of our wedding! He not only was willing to go the extra mile to help us plan the music for our surprise dance, he was amazing at merging the different styles of music we wanted on the dance floor! Merging two different cultures and families styles is not always easy and Cesar did it EASILY and kept everyone having fun and on the dance floor! Could not be happier with our choice to have him as part of our day!

    10/10 Would Recommend

    DJ Escence was incredible for our wedding. He played so many of our recommended songs, as well as choosing some fun songs of his own to help transition between different vibes. He was very communicative and an amazing MC. We would love to work with him again in the future.

    Wedding DJ

    I literally could not ask for a better DJ!

    From planning, to set up, to covering every single thing we didn’t think of, Cesar is a true professional.

    He listened to our ideas about music and ran with it.

    He mixed music from different decades and cultures. The dance floor was full all night!

    He came on time and prepared. We didn’t have to worry about a thing.

    If you’re planning an event or something as special as a wedding I highly recommend you hire DJ essence!

    Everyone Danced, Everyone!

    From someone that is a DJ himself and had a couple of DJ friends that were guests at our wedding, we can tell you that Cesar did an amazing job at our wedding. Everyone danced, EVERYONE!

    Cesar has an effective approach to consulting how you want music to be played at your wedding. He asks what songs to be played for the key moments such as bridal party, bouquet toss, etc. and you can have fun with it. He knows when to transition out of songs people might not be feeling (he knows how to read a crowd like a real DJ). What is really important that helps even more is knowing what YOU want for your wedding, ask questions and even know what you don't want. I am 27 years old and about 80% of the guests were too and one thing we don't like is hearing club DJ's play songs such as Yeah by Usher or easy-to-go songs that are outdated to us, BUT with the other 20% being older family and being Latino, Cesar knew how to balance both songs that can hype the younger crowd and the classic Spanish bangers that could make everyone dance.

    He played I Gotta Feeling by The Black Eyed Peas as the ending song and I don't think me and my friends have ever been that happy dancing to a song that both reminded us of our youth when we first heard it in high school to now celebrating as adults growing up with one of the most memorable events we could experience, getting married. Great price, great music, great memories - that's what you'll get from DJ Escence!

    Awesome DJ!

    Cesar did great at our wedding! Throughout our planning process he was always very engaged with us and very responsive at all times. He'll go the extra mile to make sure your wedding goes just as you envision it. And most importantly... he will get everyone dancing on that dance floor the day of your event! Awesome DJ! Thank you Cesar.

    Cesar is amazing! Feel like we made a friend for life!

    So appreciated Cesar. Covid made us reschedule 3 times and he was right there with us every step of the way always encouraging and accommodating! Thankful for the pre-gaming of all the songs and scheduling. Made our day! He totally made the ceremony flow perfect and oh what fun we had at the reception! From the up-lighting that set the mood to the monogram of our name of course music never stopped and his personality bringing everyone to the floor! I would do it all over again....exactly the same! Thank you so much Cesar!

    Best and Most Ethical DJ EVER!

    I don't have enough words to describe how AMAZING Cesar is. Truly some of the best words to describe him as is ethical and awesome. We had previously booked him with a security deposit for our 110 people wedding (ceremony and reception) and COVID happened. First we thought we were only going to do a small ceremony on a different day and last min notice. This meant we would have only needed him for like an hour or so, we were thinking it probably wouldn't be an option because we were reaching out too late. Being the ethical person he is, he said he was available and happy to do it! At the end, we ended up having a 25 people wedding ceremony and reception and I can promise you it would not have been as perfect if we would've had a different DJ.
    For the ceremony- I sent him the different songs I wanted, they were mostly cover versions of songs, and LITERALLY every single one was EXACTLY the one I wanted.

    For the reception- the vibe was amazing! His love and effort he puts into his craft and our wedding was like no other. Honestly, it feels like we would've known him for years. He really is outstanding!

    If you are wondering whether to book him or not, don't think any longer- DO IT! He is worth every penny! Such a cool, respectful and responsible guy.

    Thank you SOOOOO much Cesar. Our 25 people wedding felt so full of life and happiness and a lot of that is thanks to you!! Forever grateful!

    Amazing DJ and Experience!

    Thank you Cesar for being part of our amazing day! If you are looking for a DJ that will work with you to ensure you have a perfect day Cesar is your guy. He is professional and great at communicating via text or email or voice which is something extremely important. He was also flexible and joined us for our venue walkthrough to ensure all went well. I appreciated the fact that he took the time to get to know my husband and I and delivered just what we wanted on our wedding day in terms of music and vibe. He is bilingual and great at reading the crowd to keep the party going. Lastly, his adds of monograms and up lighting are fantastic and really set the ambiance. Book him you wont regret it.

    Awesome DJ

    My husband and I just got married on July 6 and were worried about how to hire a DJ. We heard about Cesar from our wedding coordinator. We were looking for someone that could mix and balance Latin Music and American music well. He did not disappoint! We didn't even know where to start with what type of music but Cesar provided a template to help us get started. We sent him our lists of songs we wanted and he made the night flow well by adjusting the playlists to keep our guests on the dance floor. When it came to our introduction for the evening he made us feel comfortable and was there personally to help us through. Cesar did a great job of adjusting when we deviated from our schedule. At the end, he he handled our "send off" and it was the most magical and warm way to head off into our honeymoon. Overall it was a pleasure and comfort knowing we had someone professional and warm to handle something as important as our music. Thank you so much Cesar for helping and being a part of our wedding!

    Amazing Experience!

    Cesar did an amazing job at our wedding! We enjoyed every second and Cesar worked with us really well. He was extremely helpful in the process and was always so kind with my tardiness (haha!). The dancing portion of the wedding is one of my favorite parts looking back at my wedding and that is all because of Cesar! We wish we could relive it over and over!

    Epic! Best DJ ever

    I don't even know where to start with this review. Cesar was absolutely remarkable to work with. Ultimately, he delivered more than was expected. He helped with a slide show my husband made for me, and he had EVERYONE on the dance floor all night! Our wedding was so fun thanks to his talent of getting the party going. Thank you so much Cesar, we cant wait to have you DJ all our future events!

    Cesar is great! Highly recommended.

    Cesar DJ'd our wedding. It was a pleasure to work w/ Cesar from day one. Cesar was responsive, patient, and professional from the first interaction we had online, to meeting up in person to go over what services he was able to provide, to walking us through each step towards having a successful wedding music playlists from per-ceremony, all the way up to reception dinner. There were times where we couldn't respond in timely manner, but Cesar was patient through it all and still delivered. Cesar worked great w/ our coordinator, venue, and even our live singer. Thank you so much, Cesar! Highly recommended.

    This man is amazing! A man of many talents...

    DJ Escence was so flexible. I’m particular about the music choice but he accepted my list and created a phenomenal playlist to party the night away! My guests were impressed and my groom was having a great time! I highly recommend DJ Escence’s magic to any bride and groom that want to have the best night.

    The Best DJ

    Cesar was the best DJ we could have asked for. He was an absolute pleasure to work with, and made everything really easy for us. He is very professional, and knows how to make everyone at the party have fun. He is a master at his craft, so all you need to do is tell him a little of what you have in mind, and he will finish the rest and exceed your expectations. The uplighting, custom monogram, and the fog machine came out so beautifully. You will not regret choosing Cesar as your DJ at all.
