Peter is your guy. You won't regret it

I had my wedding in San Clemente, CA and Peter was the DJ. If you want someone who knows their stuff and no BS, Peter is your person. In addition to handling the music, he has lights, smoke machines, sparks, tree lights and many other things. Peter was professional, joy to work with, good attitude, and great communicator. I highly recommend Peter.

Outstanding!!

Peter was amazing from start to finish for our August 2023 wedding! We really appreciated that in addition to DJing, we were also able to work with him for MCing and uplighting. He is versatile and attentive. Per my request, towards the end of the night, he transitioned to some EDM favorites which made me so happy and allowed me to have fun with our guests. Peter has a wonderful personality and was a joy to work with! Would highly recommend Peter!!

Vive Entertainment made our wedding amazing!!

Peter is the greatest! He is very accommodating, kind, professional and easy to work with! I the groom on the other hand, was a bit vague about what songs to put on the dance floor because the bride and I were a bit flustered with wedding prep, but the day of, SOMEHOW Peter put on all the songs we loved to dance to! How does he do it? It's like magic.

So, it seems, Peter is not only an exceptional DJ and MC, he is also a mind reader of sorts. But really, you can see his decades of experience shine in how he makes everything work so well and keeps the atmosphere so lively and joyful during the wedding! Even knowing what songs to put, you really see the experience come out.

So for those of you who are looking for a DJ, I know what it's like to comb through so many reviews, many who have high reviews and go "who do we trust?" "they're all good", "how do we know which one's legit?" Let me stop you right there.

Peter is legit. Peter is good. Peter is someone you can trust.

I've referred and worked with Peter for over 15 years. He did my wedding and that's a lot to say considering I've worked with 600+ other DJ's over my 26 year career. Your guests will love his professionalism and I believe he speaks a few languages as well.
