iDj Entertainment Services

This is a SUPER late review, but better late than never! We absolutely LOVED working with Marcos and iDJ. Our wedding was in August 2014 and Marcos really met all of our needs and more. He was a perfect MC for the night and his music additions to our list were PERFECT. A ton of people complimented us on the music. Also, he’s actually a REAL DJ. He plays to the mood of the crowd and actually mixes. I wanted the feeling of a party from our college days and that’s exactly what we got. Couldn’t have been better. Thanks Marcos!

We are so glad we went with DJ Marcos and iDJ Entertainment. From our first meeting with Marcos, we were confident that he understood our musical taste and would create a great environment for our wedding. Marcos provided us with a very helpful form to provide the types of music we wanted and to list any specific songs we did or did not want him to play. We didn’t want to give a long list of specific songs… we trusted Marcos and it couldn’t have worked out better. Music is very important to our friends and families, and Marcos was able to select songs that were loved by everyone… from children to grandparents. He did a wonderful job of controlling the vibe of the room.
More than just a DJ, Marcos was able to implement the timeline of our wedding by coordinating with our other vendors and making the necessary announcements. I could go on and on. Bottom line is, despite having a lot of friends who are DJs, I will be using Marcos from here on out.
I know many people think they can trim their budget and save on DJ costs. I would advise against that. Music sets the entire tone of the party, and the money we spent with iDJ Entertainment was well worth it.

Marcos was awesome! I was able to book him for my son’s 13^th birthday without a whole lot of notice before the party. EVERYONE commented on how great Marcos was and how everything he played was great for the party and appropriate for that age group. He did such an awesome job that my friend now wants him to DJ her son’s birthday party! I would highly recommend him to everyone! Thanks so much Marcos for making my son’s birthday the best party ever!

In our long quest for a DJ, we found Marcos. He was professional, kind and always went above and beyond. And that was even before our actual wedding! My husband and I were married this weekend at The Maxwell House in Pasadena. I was a little worried about how Marcos was going to Dj and MC the event because the wedding was going to take place in several locations in the house; outside in the back yard, the foyer, the library, and several other rooms. He nailed it!!! All night, and up to today, my guests are complimenting him. He is articulate, has a wonderful voice, and his DJing skils are off the hook! He was definitely worth every penny!

We often turn to Marcos to DJ and emcee our events, and he delivers with consistent, quality service. As an emcee, Marcos is able to engage the crowd as needed, as a DJ, he mixes music that seamlessly adds to the ambience. He has an uncanny ability to read the audience and select music that is most appropriate for the event we are producing — whether it’s a luncheon for hundreds or an intimate dinner for thirty. We highly recommend Marcos for your DJ/​emcee needs. (Gower Lee — Event Planner for SAVVY Event Planning and Design)

We were beyond lucky to cross paths with Marcos and iDj Entertainment. He recently emcee’d + DJ’ed our wedding and did a wonderful job on both fronts. The timeline for our special evening was tight and he did a great job keeping the flow going and spinning music that had the dance floor packed. As a matter of fact everyone told us afterward they wished the party could have kept on going because they loved the music so much. While my wife and I chose most of the playlist the skill in blending all the songs together was all Marcos and what an amazing job he did! Thanks Marcos for such a memorable evening!

Marcos was our DJ at our inaugural Father Daughter Dance last month and I can say that he was a big reason the event was a success. Prior to the event, he was very professional, responsive, proactive and accommodating. At the event, he was simply amazing! When you can get little girls and their dads on the dance floor and have them engaged throughout the evening, you know you got skills! Marcos plays great music, has great transition from one song to the next and is personable. I’m very appreciative of all the great reviews of Marcos on Unilocal that led me to booking him. After having him DJ our event, I can also concur that he is awesome. I would highly recommend him to any event. If you think you could get by with an iPod dock station, think again and book Marcos. He’s already being considered for 2 other school events as other parents were impressed!

Marcos from iDj Entertainment Services did an amazing job of DJ-​ing and MC-​ing our wedding! He really had his finger on the pulse of the wedding the entire night. He kept the energy up when it needed to be, and kept it chill when it should be. When not playing our song selections, the songs he played to fill each phase of the wedding all fit the wedding perfectly. He spoke with confidence when MC-​ing, but kept the attention on us — and faded into the background seamlessly. He even arranged the uplighting beautifully, and for a much cheaper cost than some other companies were quoting me out there.
I highly recommend Marcos, and wish him the best!

I am very happy I hired Marcos for my daughters sweet 16. He incorporated her preferred music list very nicely and mixed it all perfectly. I had witnessed his talent at a friends wedding and my daughter and I knew we would want him to DJ her big event. Thank you Marcos for your amazing services!

Marcos rocked our May 2014 wedding AND MCd it perfectly, which I think is just as important. Some MCs act like it’s their chance to practice stand-​up, and others don’t work with the planner or other vendors to make sure everyone’s on the same page about the event timeline. Not Marcos. He made sure he knew what should happen when, sound-​wise, and made it happen without going overboard: announcing us, mics for speeches, getting everyone on the floor for the first dance so we didn’t have to go it alone, etc. On top of that the music was great. We wanted very specific music genres played during different stages of our event. We spent time discussing what we wanted with Marcos, and emailed him some of the songs we wanted to hear, but we left it up to him to fill in the rest. He did a great job of selecting songs that were crowd-​pleasers, but weren’t cheesy. He kept the dance floor full the whole night and when we had to turn the music off due to local ordinance our guests nearly rioted because they didn’t want him to stop. In short, look no further. You’ve found your DJ and MC!

I was on my 20 year high school reunion committee and after searching Unilocal and other review sites, we decided on Marcos from iDJ Entertainement. Marcos provided an awesome experience from the initial consultation to the last song at the event. I didn’t think he would be able to accommodate our request because our reunion was located at a resort in Rancho Mirage. He agreed to make the drive to the desert and showed up on time and ready to perform. Marcos provided MC services as well as DJ services for us and didn’t miss a beat the entire evening. Marcos came prepared with a catalog of music that had everyone dancing and moving all night long. I was given kudos by our reunion class for picking the DJ. Thanks for making me look good, Marcos!
Too bad I’m already married or I’d hire him for my wedding! I would definitely recommend iDJ Entertainment to anyone looking for great service and a fair price.

We chose Marcos as our DJ/​MC for our wedding at The Rococo Room, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Leading up to our big day, Marcos was patient, prompt, and flexible with all our requests and changes. The day-​of was no exception… not only was the music/​playlist perfect, he was engaging as the MC, and from setup to closing down, everything was flawless. Would recommend to anyone!

We worked on logistics with Marcos from iDJ before choosing our day of MC/​DJ. He gave us a really good outline document to fill in what kind of music we would like played at various parts of our wedding/​reception. His website has really good examples of the different DJs/​MCs they have available.
After speaking with Marcos, we decided on DJ Amara as she seemed to match our musical style really well. She was was absolutely AMAZING! She incorporated our music selections seamlessly and our dance floor was PACKED the entire night.
Not only did she play the best r&b & hip hop (that we requested) but she also served as our MC. She introduced our bridal party perfectly. The night before we decided to go with a basketball theme and on the day of she rolled with it (sorry about the late notice Amara!).
HIGHLY recommend DJ Amara. Everyone at our wedding raved about her. I think she’ll be getting some business in the near future from our engaged friends. Thanks DJ Amara!

Marcos (Dj Closer) from iDj rocked our wedding!!! He easily understood what we wanted for our wedding day and was super accommodating to any changes and even last minute updates to our song choices. During the reception, we couldn’t have picked a better DJ who understood our crowd and kept the party going all through the night!
Even though we didn’t specify song choices or music choices for general dancing, Marcos easily picked up on the vibe of the crowd and adapted accordingly. He was also very obliging to some guests’ song requests! All of our guests had such a great time! Even our parents were up and dancing the whole night! We couldn’t have imagined a better wedding day and Marcos was definitely a great contribution to that! Thank you!

Marcos from dj entertainment was amazing. He responded promptly to all my questions and made sure all the music we wanted was played. Everyone had such a great time dancing the night away. I definitely recommend using his company. He won’t disappoint you at all.

IDJ Entertainment was the best MC/​DJ we could have ever asked for at our wedding! All our wedding guest were saying how awesome the music was, never a dull moment. Marcos’ preparation and dedication to our event helped make our amazing day completely perfect. We 100% recommend him to anyone needing MC/​DJ services!

After having been to enough weddings over the last 10 years, my fiancé (now wife) and I understood the critical need of having a DJ/​MC that i) could get a party going, ii) had the proficiency to read a room, and most importantly, iii) was able to keep the energy pumping for hours on end.
As we searched for weeks looking for the perfect DJ/​MC to host our wedding, we came across iDJ Entertainment. We perused through the reviews, intently listened to mixes and song selections via
and decided to give Marcos a call. Marcos was exactly who we were looking for. He was professional, always in communication, and listened to what we wanted to do.
On the day of the wedding, he delivered everything he promised. The dance floor was packed the entire night and the music was just what we had hoped for. The TRIFECTA was achieved.

Based on Unilocal reviews, I booked Marcos to DJ our wedding at the Oviatt Penthouse in June. Marcos has great energy, is professional, and really listened to what our requests were for specific song selections for the wedding ceremony. As for the «open dancing» part of the reception, we gave only a few guidelines (like no rap) and everyone was dancing all night long! I heard from many guests how great the DJ was, and how he really made the reception. I highly recommend Marcos for any upcoming event, you won’t regret it!

iDJ entertainment provided exceptional service the day of our wedding. The professionalism of Marcos Rodriguez is unmatched. Throughout the planning process of our wedding he remained in touch and easily accessible. He provided quick responses to our questions and offered some great feedback and money saving advice! The day if our wedding he executed our requests flawlessly and provided awesome MC skills.
In addition to DJ services we were also able to contract up lighting through iDj entertainment!
Marcos truly made an impact on the overall success of our wedding day. It was the perfect day! Thank you Marcos!!!

If my wife and I could give more stars to show how good Marcos Rodriguez aka DJ Closer, we would tell you to look up at the night sky. The multi-​talented DJ is really experienced in creating the prefect atmosphere with a variety of music that gives the guests a delightful time. Also, the MC skills to work with the many vendors, especially the Wedding Coordinator, is probably the icing on the cake. Women at our wedding said they love his voice.
We wouldn’t have known about Marcos if it wasn’t for our Wedding Coordinator, Jennifer Shin from Saavy Events. They have worked together at other weddings so the dynamic was a friendship like quality. If you need a Wedding Coordinator then there is no one better than Jennifer.
One of the best things about Marcos is how he helped with the music in the wedding planning phase. He provides a document to help guide what kind of music you would like, any specific song you definitely need him to play and what song that will make you cringe. The benefit of having a DJ who has the knowledge and instinct was money well spent. Can’t tell you how much we would recommend hiring Marcos. We hope you do! You won’t regret it.
