We worked with DJ Alex from AMS Entertainment for our wedding, and he was truly incredible. He nailed every moment, from our grand entrance to the smooth transitions throughout the night. His stage presence was confident but never over the top, and he had an amazing ability to read the room. The energy always felt right. Our guests kept commenting on how lively the music and overall vibe were. The dance floor never felt empty, and everyone looked comfortable and genuinely happy. Alex also kept the timing and flow of the night on track, which took so much stress off us. Everything just moved effortlessly. We also booked the AMS photobooth, and guests had a blast with it. The photo strips turned out beautifully and became a surprise highlight of the night. Getting access to the full gallery afterward was such a fun bonus. We loved looking through everyone's photos! On top of everything, Alex was warm, welcoming, and clearly knew the space and layout, which made the whole evening feel smooth and well-orchestrated. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ or experience. Working with Joe, Alex and the entire AMS team helped make our wedding unforgettable, and we'd recommend them in a heartbeat. read more

We absolutely loved working with Alex from AMS! From our first phone call, he was incredibly communicative and organized -- he really took the time to understand our vision for the night. On the day of our wedding, everything ran perfectly. The sound systems for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception were all set up seamlessly, and every cue was spot-on. Once the dancing started, the energy never stopped -- Alex had everyone on the dance floor all night long! We got so many compliments from guests about how fun and smooth everything felt. We can't recommend Alex and AMS enough -- he made our night unforgettable! read more

My fiancé and I got married at Viansa Winery this this past October in Sonoma and used AMS entertainment as our DJ throughout the entire event. We had such a positive experience from the pre-planning to the day of! Joe, the co-owner, was extremely responsive and did a great job guiding us through the process. Scott, our DJ, was so friendly and did a great job of reading the room throughout our event! It felt extremely personalized. We would recommend AMS 100/100 times! read more

Alex with AMS created a great atmosphere all night long! The dance floor was never empty! All of the little details were done perfectly too. Everything sounded great from the ceremony to cocktail hour and at the reception. I highly recommend booking AMS for your wedding! read more

I could not recommend AMS Entertainment more. I was lucky enough to get Joe to be the DJ at my wedding and boy was that one of the best decisions I made with my wedding planning! He was the most professional, he listened to my thoughts and ideas, and helped create the most memorable night of my life! The entire AMS Entertainment team was absolutely wonderful to work with. The dance floor was packed all night, and that is truly all I wanted for my wedding guests. Thank you so much Joe for helping create the best night of my life! I will be recommending you to every bride I know! If you are lucky enough to get Joe to DJ your wedding, you already won the lottery when it comes to planning your wedding! read more

We hired AMS Entertainment for our wedding at Vine Hill House, with Andy being our DJ. Andy ran the procession and speeches very well and was flexible when I had to replace a speech. Our dance floor was going crazy with his song selections and read the crowd perfectly. We were overwhelmingly happy with both his performance and AMS' coordination, so highly recommend them. read more

We loved working with AMS and our DJ Alex for our wedding :) The team was super responsive, thoughtful, detail oriented and made our big day a blast. They also were so seamless during the reception transition so it all felt super smooth and organized. We also booked our photobooth through AMS which was a blast! read more

We hired AMS for our wedding at Viansa Sonoma on 6/3/23. The booking process was easy and efficient. DJ Alex was so great to work with. He has a lot of knowledge and experience and knew exactly what we wanted. He helped with any suggestions we needed for music choice and kept the party going! Would highly recommend AMS. read more

Alex did a fantastic job! He was professional, fun, and really read the room well. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ. I would absolutely recommend AMS in the future. We couldn't be more pleased with how everything turned out! read more

Working with Joe (and our DJ, Alex) was sooo awesome! We only had one convo with Alex after setting up our planner/spreadsheet of songs and he seemed genuinely stoked to work with us. Flash forward to the wedding, the first time I see him in person, I felt like he knew us down to a T! All the non-requested songs fit perfectly and the first song of the night blew people away and set the tone for our very dope wedding. We stupidly forgot some people in the grand entrance while planning, and Alex seamlessly found us, the family we needed in the ceremony, and got them added/organized without any extra help from us. So accommodating! Everything sounded great (@ Triple S Ranch Napa) and required zero thinking on our end, kind of want you want on your wedding day. Cheers guys! read more

I give Andy and AMS Entertainment the highest possible recommendation. My husband (of two weeks) and I are in our seventies and were married at the Sonoma Mission Inn. Andy was our DJ, and even the Rabbi and her wife said it was the most fun wedding they ever attended. From my first interaction with AMS through our wedding party, everyone was 100% present and paid keen attention to detail. Because we were mainly playing 50's and 60's oldies and goodies, I compiled a list of songs. Francis, the AMS manager, called me numerous times to check versions of songs. AT AMS, there was a short bio about their DJ's and Andy was a terrific match for our group. We talked about getting young older-folks dancing during our prewedding chats, and the conversation was for naught - we were all on the dancefloor. Andy was fantastic at reading situations and gearing the music to the moment. We had a pre-ceremony plan that changed last minute (even the bride and groom didn't know it). Then he kept the hora going until each of our grandchildren was carried in a chair. Lastly, Andy was a warm, friendly, happy man- the type of person I believe anyone would want at their wedding. read more

Alex (our DJ) was great! There was a cohort of people that danced the night away. Alex took requests and played all of our songs at the right time (i.e. processional song, intro song, etc). We had a call about a week or two before the wedding, which was super helpful. I would definitely recommend AMS. In addition to our DJ, we booked our photo booth through AMS because it was slightly cheaper than the rest of our options and it was perfect! Everyone loved the photo booth and the pictures turned out amazing! Juan (who ran the photo booth) was great! read more

Thank you DJ Alex!!! We had our wedding a few weeks back, there was unanticipated rain and DJ Alex handled everything perfectly. He did pre-ceremony music, ceremony music (with our requested song mashups), cocktail hour and reception. We provided a genre style for preceremony and cocktail hour. We provided a list for the reception and he was able to work with our music which was in a different language. Everything was festive and wonderful! read more

We really loved working with Joe and Alex for our wedding. Joe was immensely helpful and communicative in advance of the wedding, and AMS had really helpful online tools for planning out the details in advance which we enjoyed using. We got to know our DJ Alex over the phone about a month ahead of the big day, which was super informative. Alex helped us with a few recommendations and tips to help the day run smoothly, which were all very useful! Wedding day went great - the sound was excellent through the entire (outdoor) ceremony, Alex worked with our live musicians excellently through the ceremony, the levels and transitions were perfect at the cocktail hour, and the sound was wonderful for the dinner and dancing even though we got a bit behind schedule (classic). A great sound team is like a foundation of a house... if you don't ever notice it, it's doing a WONDERFUL job. You only really notice the bad ones, and it can wreak havoc on an otherwise wonderful event. AMS was a pleasure to work with and I definitely recommend using them if you're in the area! read more

Absolutely fantastic DJ service. Talked with Joe over the phone and was very impressed with the amount of planning and questions asked. DJ Emil was our day of DJ at the Culinary Institute of America in St. Helena. Everything went without a hitch! He went above and beyond to make sure our wedding stayed on schedule and clarified with us each step before it occurred (ceremony, grand entrance, first dance, cake cutting etc.) Music was phenomenal and mixed perfectly. Can't say enough good things about AMS and everyone involved! Strongly recommend for any event! read more

AMS is excellent, when we first started our process with them they provided an online dashboard to give us the option to completely customize our music. that dashboard was very easy to use. As for the DJ, we had Alex. if you can I would highly recommend asking for him. He was the greatest. we had ZERO issues with the speakers or sound quality. He checked with us a week before our wedding and he made sure we were happy with everything we decided on. as for the day of, DJ Alex had our backs from the moment we walked down the aisle to the speeches to the dance floor. thank you to the AMS team for creating an amazing experience for us with a great vibe. Our guests couldn't stop dancing! read more

DJ Alex did an amazing job! Total pro and made our daughter's wedding event so fun and meaningful! He listened and had fun with their array of song choices and mixing their music style into the event beautifully! We couldn't be happier with how it all went and would highly recommend AMS Entertainment and DJ Alex for anyone's future events! read more

1000000/10 My Goodness! From Start to finish this company was amazing to work with! Joe the owner was not only kind and understanding but he was flexible and accommodating! Amil was our DJ and he was the absolute best!!! He was a perfect Emcee and he played all the songs we wanted! He also took last minute request from me and my family and made it easy and kept everyone dancing! Amil also took the time to call us twice and to confirm all the special music and events we had planned and for the names of speakers and speech makers for both the ceremony and reception and was prepared ! He is so respectful and kept everyone dancing! I'd we ever have another wedding or event ever, we are calling AMS every time we can! Thank you Joe and Amil!!!! read more

We literally could not say better things about AMS and DJ Alex! He was absolutely fantastic! He had our family and friends up and dancing the entire wedding and didn't miss a single detail. Alex was friendly, personable, and a true professional. We are thankful to AMS for connecting Alex with our wedding. The whole day and evening was magical and we are grateful! Five stars!!! Sarah & Dave read more

Highly highly recommend! My wife and I were married in June 2023 and we went with AMS, after going to a friend's wedding where they also went with AMS. It turned out that we ended up getting the same DJ as our friends (Rod) and he was fantastic! Rod provided a lot of good feedback for us during the planning portion but always let us ultimately make the final calls on how the music would be on our day. He ran the music for our ceremony perfectly and nailed all the first dances and dinner announcements. The dancing portion was so awesome - he had everyone going right up until the end of the wedding. I can't recommend Rod and the entire AMS team strongly enough! Some of the best money we spent. Thanks again Rod for an unforgettable day! read more

AMS Entertainment - DJs Near Me - Sonoma, California

We used AMS for our August 2022 wedding at Arista Winery in Healdsburg and I highly recommend them. We booked them back in 2019 so I've had a lot of conversations with Joe over the past 3 years on rescheduling and rescheduling. He has always been very patient and responsive with my questions. Our DJ Skip was amazing and a true professional. I really appreciated that he reached out to us about 2 weeks prior to our wedding to talk through all of our music and reconfirm our special songs. He reassured us that he gets to the venue super early and double checks everything to make sure it sounds just right (and it did). He knew the right moment to play our favorite songs and really read the crowd well. I had so many people tell me how much fun they had dancing and could they get our playlist (which of course was mainly DJ Skip). It really was a special day and I never ever had to worry about the music/sound/playlist details. I wish we could have kept dancing into the night. Joe recommended renting their lawn games since we had about 20 kids at our wedding and that was a huge hit for everyone. read more

THANK YOU AMS!! My husband and I worked with Joe (owner) and Alex (wedding DJ). We booked with Joe over 2 years ago and had to reschedule our wedding due to COVID. Throughout the last 2 years, I had a ton of questions for Joe and he was always extremely responsive, kind, and easy to work with! The team was very flexible when we had to change plans due to the pandemic and worked with us to make sure our event went off without a hitch! Everyone of our vendors told us that AMS is the best of the best! Alex reached out to introduce himself prior to our wedding and we jumped on a call. The team has a great online planner tool to help with notes around "must played" songs and/or any other special requests. We immediately trusted Alex, based on his event knowledge and experience in the industry! He provided great advice, and wanted to ensure our event was everything unique to us and more! On our wedding day, Alex did an amazing job! The music, the set up, the vibe, all was exactly what we hoped for! The music was perfect and Alex was a pleasure to work with! I highly recommend AMS Entertainment and would love to hire them again for another event!! Thank you Joe & Alex! read more

DJ Alex was absolutely the best! He took my vibe playlist and made great choices, everyone was dancing until the last moment! I also appreciate that he took requests, but only those that fit with the overall vibe. All the planning tools they provide are so great at really honing in on what the night should be, I appreciate that from a planning POV. We were so happy overall with AMS and DJ Alex. read more

I could not be happier with my experience with Joe and our DJ Alex. Alex was an incredible DJ keeping the flow of the event thoughtful and smooth, choosing perfect songs based on our guests and mood, and being an all around thoughtful and enjoyable person to be around. We are so thankful and highly recommend! read more

AMS did an excellent job providing music for our wedding! We had the perfect day and could not have been happier with both the live duo (Skyline Duo) that played for the beginning, ceremony, and cocktail hour of our event and our DJ, Emil. We received lots of great feedback from our guests on both of the types of music. Emil was so easy to work with and was always available beforehand to answer any of our questions. We really trusted him to play music that he felt met the moment for our event, as my wife and I like a variety of music and have a difficult time choosing "favorites". Emil did an excellent job. He also surprised us at the end of the event with a recording of our vows over an acoustic version of our first dance song. We were so shocked and are so grateful that he put that together on the fly. It was such a beautiful way to wrap up our evening and we are so thankful that he shared the audio file with us. I highly recommend hiring AMS Entertainment for your wedding music. They provide excellent service and were so helpful and understanding when we had to postpone our wedding twice due to the pandemic. We were so thrilled to have them be part of our event and were glad they were still able to be there a year later to help us celebrate our big day! read more

We hired AMS Entertainment for our June 2023 wedding at Viansa Sonoma. AMS provided the audio for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception at Viansa Sonoma. Clear communication leading up to the event, audio quality was clear, and DJ Alex was very pleasant to work with. AMS worked well with our other vendors and made helpful announcements throughout our event. DJ Alex played many of the songs we indicated we liked and incorporated other songs that we also liked. I'd hire AMS and would recommend them to my friends. read more

We used AMS for our June 2022 wedding at Vine Hill House, and couldn't be happier!! From my earliest discussions with Joe, he gave patient, straight answers to my many, many questions. The online planning tools and forms that are provided once we signed up were super easy and helpful, and made sure we accounted for everything.  Our DJ, Emil, was a superstar! He was generous with his time in advance of the wedding, helping us get all the details nailed down and offering helpful advice on some facets we hadn't even thought of.  On the wedding day, he did a great job with the sound for the ceremony and reception (good quality, appropriate volume level), his talking was silky-smooth, zero cheese, and totally confident and professional, and his choices for dance music were perfect!! I would have never guessed that my friends and family would dance that much, but he kept 'em on the dance floor right to the end!  Adding this for those who, like me, initially had a bit of sticker shock at the prices for wedding DJ's in Sonoma County, and had friends asking "why not save the $$, bring your own small PA, and just use Spotify playlists". The answer is "you get what you pay for" (in a good way). I'd first note that when I did "apples-to-apples" comparison shopping with other top-rated DJ's, AMS was in line with their pricing. AMS' package - which they coordinate with Vine Hill House - includes everything (mics, separate ceremony/dancing and dinner speakers...) and there were no add-on charges, upsell requests, or surprise charges. MOST importantly, they are experienced professionals who know the importance of the event, know they only have one chance to do it right, and they delivered perfectly...they are well worth every cent!! We're thrilled we went with AMS as their experience and professionalism helped make our special day more amazing that we could have imagined! read more

To say that Alex was perfect would be an understatement! From our phone call to the last song at our wedding, Alex had us and our wants in the forefront of his mind. He successfully executed the perfect party playlist based off our suggestions, and vibes from the crowd. If we ever throw another party, or if any of our friends/family ask for recommendations, Alex and AMS Entertainment will be our first call! Thank you so much for everything! read more

Emil was professional, on schedule, and knew how to read the room! He was an excellent DJ and our dance floor was completely packed the entire night! He made our wedding very special and fun! read more

In our initial contact with Joe, he explained how AMS works and the various options available, and after talking with him we decided to book AMS! In the final days before the wedding, we had to change a few things last-minute due to COVID, but AMS was super accommodating and met all of our needs. On the day-of, everything went perfectly and DJ Skip was awesome! It all went so smoothly that we never even thought of the audio setup. He nailed the ceremony music, the announcements, the toasts, and especially the dancing. All of our guests had a great time on the dance floor and he kept it super high energy... people were chanting "one more song!" at the end of the night! read more

AMS Entertainment was amazing to work with for our wedding. We had to postpone from last year due to covid and they were really easy to work with through the rescheduling mess. We got Alex as our DJ and he was awesome! He helped us iron out a lot of our logistics (that helped our planner, too) a couple weeks before the wedding and on the day he was flawless. I didn't change my last name and it was important to me that the DJ didn't introduce us as Mr. & Mrs. "husband's name" and I was nervous our DJ would do it out of habit but he never did! Anytime a song played that people weren't immediately dancing to he just let it run for 20 seconds and bounced to the next song, he kept the party going all reception! Highly recommend! read more

I can't emphasize enough how wonderful our experience was with AMS entertainment, including coordinating with Joe, communicating with DJ Alex, and Alex's DJ-ing on the day of the wedding. We contracted with AMS for our wedding at Vine Hill House this summer and from the very beginning of the process, communication was prompt, professional, and personable. I could tell we were in good hands going with AMS. DJ Alex exceeded our expectations. He was wonderful in the planning process (reviewing song selection and letting him know our preferences) and on the day of the wedding, he helped one of our family members do a sound check for a guitar performance (which went seamlessly). Alex was so professional and lovely to interact with. As a queer couple, we were sometimes nervous that vendors might feel uncomfortable or act awkward - we did not need to worry at all about AMS. When we met Alex, he was warm and supportive. Throughout the night, the sound quality and song order were PERFECT. We felt so taken care of by AMS & Alex - when it came to sound and entertainment, we didn't have to worry about a thing on our wedding day. Highly recommend! read more

AMS, specifically our DJ Andy, was absolutely fantastic! We used them for our wedding just a couple weeks ago and we couldn't have picked a better company! Andy was top notch! He was professional, prompt, and made us feel very comfortable and at ease. He kept the timing of events that day go by so well that I didn't have to think about a thing. Additionally, the Photo Booth was a huge hit. And they were able to send me a digital copy of every single photo that was taken throughout the evening. Would recommend these guys to anyone and everyone! read more

Thank you for the amazing DJ services at our wedding! AMS and Alex (our DJ) were awesome--Alex did an excellent job transitioning between events and speakers, and did a FANTASTIC job with the dance music!! Would recommend! read more

We hired AMS to DJ our wedding at Viansa Sonoma in June. Joe was extremely professional and very easy to work with - he was interested in making sure we got the experience we wanted vs. selling us on a package. We were paired with DJ Alex, who was incredible. He nailed the music selection based on the preferences we expressed, happily made several special accommodations for us, and was on top of everything and professional on the day of. Music is very important to both of us, and the music at our wedding was A+. In addition, his joyful and caring demeanor made us feel supported. We have even gotten requests from our guests to send them the playlist that DJ Alex made for our reception. Highly recommend AMS read more

I'm so glad we hired AMS entertainment for our wedding - Scott, our DJ, did an amazing job! His music selection was perfect and our guests had a really fun time on the dance floor. Would definitely recommend them for your wedding! read more

My husband and I cannot say enough great things about our experience with AMS entertainment. Alex was our DJ and he did an absolute amazing job at reading the room. We gave him quite the challenge with our music selections as it range from English and Spanish genres but he handled it amazingly well. Our guests were on their feet the whole time and were raving about him. We cannot thank Alex enough for making our wedding night absolutely incredible! read more

Emil and AMS Entertainment made our wedding day perfect! Highly recommend to anyone getting married in wine country!

We had our Wedding in May 2019 at Eagle Vines Napa Valley. We hired AMS to provide microphone for the ceremony and DJ for dinner. Our DJ was Emil. Emil was amazing. He is stress-free and easy-going. He was on top of everything, especially our tight schedule, and helped keep everything on track since our wedding coordinators weren't. Music was great. He played the songs we asked and got a good feeling for what we were looking for. He even accommodated last minute requests from the wedding party for a game. We highly recommend AMS and Emil for your wedding. read more

AMS Entertainment and our DJ, Alex, couldn't have been better to work with! We had very specific playlists for every part of our day and were initially on edge about how the DJ would handle only playing the songs we chose (and at the appropriate parts of the day - cocktail hour, early dance, late dance, etc.). Once we had our initial call with Alex, all of the anxiety went out the window. Day of, Alex crushed it and mixed the songs to perfection. We received a ton of compliments on the music and dancing, and everyone had such a great time. Would 100% book again if we ever need a DJ in the future. read more
