The best DJ ever ! DJ Daniel just DJ'd our wedding on 4/24/26 at Wedgewood Fresno and our family and friends did not stop dancing. He did so well with the ceremony and the reception was so fun and perfect ! Thank you for bringing the vibes and being a fun and amazing DJ ! read more

This review is long overdue, but I absolutely have to share how incredible Leo and his team at Central Coast Entertainment were for our wedding at Carmel Fields by Wedgewood Weddings. From the very first Zoom call, Leo went above and beyond to understand the vibe we wanted and made the entire planning process so seamless and stress-free. He genuinely cared about our vision, offered thoughtful suggestions, and made us feel confident that our day would be perfect. Lupe, our DJ, was absolutely phenomenal. He had everyone dancing all night, reading the room perfectly, and keeping the energy nonstop. Every song was perfectly timed, and our guests couldn't stop talking about how amazing he was. The dance floor was packed from the first song to the last, and it was honestly one of the highlights of the night. We also added the 360 photo booth (highly recommend!), the multimedia booth, and the smoke/cloud effect for our first dance--and these were some of the best decisions we made. The booths were a huge hit with our guests, and the smoke effect during our first dance was just magical--it made the moment feel cinematic and unforgettable. Elia, Leo's wife and our photobooth attendant, was phenomenal as well. She was warm, sweet, and made everyone feel comfortable while helping guests get the best shots. I even ran into her at my cousin's wedding six months later, and she was just as kind and engaging as she had been at our wedding, which really shows the character and dedication of the team. On top of everything, Leo surprised us with beautifully edited highlight videos of our wedding. This was completely unexpected and such a thoughtful gift--it captured all the energy, emotion, and joy of the day in a way we will treasure forever. Our guests are still talking about how professional, talented, and fun every member of Leo's team was. From setup to performance, everything was seamless, polished, and executed with so much care. Leo, Lupe, Elia, and the whole team made our wedding truly unforgettable. If you want an entertainment team that goes above and beyond, keeps your guests on their feet, and adds those extra touches that make your day magical, you absolutely cannot go wrong with Central Coast Entertainment. Choosing them was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and we will be booking them again for future events without hesitation. read more

CCE absolutely crushed it at our wedding! They were our venue's (Carmel Fields by Wedgewood) recommended vendor, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Months before the big day, we had a virtual call with their team to go over our vision. We sent over playlists for the ceremony, cocktail hour, entrances, and key moments, and they were super flexible with how we shared everything--whether it was Apple Music, Spotify, or YouTube. A week before the wedding, we spoke directly with Lupe, which was great because he really got to know both of us before the big day. On the wedding day, every song we'd planned was played exactly at the right moment. During cocktail hour and dinner, Lupe incorporated our suggestions, and our guests kept complimenting us on how perfect the music was. As the emcee, he went above and beyond--his energy, timing, and enthusiasm set the tone for the entire night. And once the dance floor opened, it was nonstop fun with the perfect mix of songs. Lupe even let me grab the mic to sing along as we partied, which made it even more unforgettable! Huge thanks to Lupe and the whole CCE team for making our wedding incredible! read more

We had such a fantastic experience with Central Coast Entertainment (CCE) for our wedding at The Ranch at Silver Creek by Wedgewood Weddings! One of the best parts was that they were already an included service with our venue--making the whole process incredibly smooth from the start. Setting up our portal was super easy, and our planning meeting with Leo, the Executive Director, was a huge help in mapping out our wedding day timeline. He really helped us feel organized and confident leading up to the big day. Aaron, another DJ and event coordinator, made the music planning process fun and stress-free. He offered great suggestions and really helped us choose songs that fit our vibe as a couple. On the day of our wedding, our DJ Israel absolutely nailed it! He was professional, fun, and kept the energy flowing all night. He seamlessly transitioned between the different genres we requested and made sure the dance floor was never empty. His light-hearted energy and attention to detail made the night unforgettable. We also loved that CCE offers a ton of add-on services like a photobooth, dance floors, sparklers, and more--all at reasonable prices and all great enhancements to the celebration. We truly loved working with Central Coast Entertainment and would absolutely recommend them for any event--whether you're booking through a venue or on your own. They go above and beyond to make your day feel special and stress-free. Thank you, CCE! read more

I wish I could leave 6 stars! I can't say enough amazing things about my experience working with CCE. My husband and I had a Wedgewood Wedding in Carmel. From the moment we met the owner of CCE, Leo, I knew our wedding was going to be great. Leo is so kind, hardworking and talented and so is his entire team. Everyone I interacted with at CCE was professional, fun, and attentive to our desires for the big day. Andrew was the DJ at our event and he did a phenomenal job. He really got the crowd going and played the PERFECT mix of everything. We also got a photo booth and audio guestbook from CCE that our guests loved! I HIGHLY recommend using CCE if you want to have the best event ever. Not only are they AMAZING at what they do but Leo and his team are all good hearted people, which made my outstanding experience even better! I will definitely hire them again! read more

We booked CCE through Wedgewood for their white dance floor and Photo Booth. The dance floor was GORGEOUS. Leo's wife (I wish I remembered her name) was our Photo Booth attendant and she was great! Our guests really enjoyed having a Photo Booth at our wedding. They had a special promo going on through Wedgewood when we booked them so the price was very good! Although we didn't use their DJ, we did get to see one of their DJ's in action at my cousins wedding a few months ago and he was SO GOOD. I totally recommend them for all of your wedding needs! read more

We worked with DJ Aaron, and it was great! I got lots of compliments from our wedding on his service. Definitely recommend!

Central Coast entertainment (CCE) was excellent to work with. My husband and I planned our wedding with Wedgewood Carmelfields and CCE was part of the package. It worked out great since I had heard from many others while searching for individual vendors, that CCE was the best in the area. From start to finish they were very engaged and organized. I love that there are various DJs, but the owners Leo and Elia make it feel very special and tailored to our needs. They love what they do and it shows in every step of the way. By the end pf the process, you'll want them to join the party! The music selection is fantastic! We had a good mix of current, old school and Latin music. My biggest worry was that people would not dance...CCE kept the party going through the last song! We had to turn the lights on to end the party. We also had a photo booth and thankfully with CCE's booth operator (Angela), we were able to capture the majority of our guests. It was a fun add on. I greatly appreciate all the check ins, service options (they do the "cloud covered" dance floor!! as an add on) organization, detailed calls and follow through. The day of, was excellent! We had a beach ceremony and a reception a short distance away. sadly I can't remember the DJ or MC's names (met them right before the event kicked off. Sorry guys!! You were so good!), but they were a joy to work with. The energy, professionalism and ability to hammer down the details is so important. They even handled changes on the fly. Which is so appreciated since we added the Father & bride dance and the bouquet toss at the last second (right before the ceremony). We had a wonderful time planning and celebrating with CCE. You can't go wrong hiring them through other vendors or ideally directly. They offer many add ins to make your day special and since it is family owned, they really respect you as a customer and the importance of your event. Looking forward to attending another event DJ'd by CCE and hiring them for future events! read more

We got married on 7/11/2025 and had the best time, thanks in large part to our amazing DJ, Aaron, and his team! They were super easy to work with from the start, the client portal made planning a breeze, and communication was seamless. Aaron did an incredible job reading the crowd and keeping the energy going all night. One of our favorite moments was when he played a Vietnamese song and some of my husband's own tracks (the ones he produced), such a thoughtful and personal touch! Our guests had so much fun, and we're so grateful for the unforgettable memories. Thank you, Aaron and team, for making our wedding so special! read more

If you want someone who is responsive, accommodating and pleasant to work with, CCE Entertainment is it! I rented a 360 video booth last year and recently the mirror photo booth. Leo & his team were very professional and his prices can't compare. They are definitely my go to for any events. VERY pleased with their service and they will not disappoint. read more

We booked CCE's vintage photo booth for our wedding reception at the Monterey Plaza Hotel and were blown away by the professionalism of the team and the elegance of the setup. They provided us with a book of photos after the event, which our guests signed, and created a custom touch screen and strip for our printouts (their designer even added calla lily flowers onto the strip to match our wedding flowers!) From start to finish, securing them for our wedding took two days! Our original photo booth company canceled the week before our wedding, and CCE was able to provide a contract and insurance info within 24 hrs. It was a dream come true--and the best package deal out of the photo booth companies based in the Monterey area. I cannot recommend enough :) They were even able to fit big groups into the photos! read more

CCE entertainment are impecable with their attention to detail and reassuring that your event is their number one priority. I cannot think of how many times they all told me that they wanted us to enjoy our event and be worry free. I can certainly say that thanks to them, my event was a great success. Thank you Leo, Elia, and entire staff for all your help. read more

We booked CCE Photobooth services for our wedding in August. They showed up on time and set up everything perfectly. The attendant was the sweetest and everyone had so much fun! Before the wedding we were contacted by CCE to create our custom photobooth photo strip with what design we wanted, as well as choosing a backdrop we wanted. Their pricing was extremely reasonable too. We decided to do a photobooth strip guest book instead of a regular one and the attendant was so amazing at printing extras and making sure guests put them in the guestbook and signed above it! We also received a link to all the digital copies of the pictures which was so great to have and save! All the pictures came out super clear and bright, and the props they had were perfect. We received many compliments on this company and we would definitely recommend CCE for your event! read more

Leo and the CCE team were incredibly professional and helpful from the very first call, all the way through to the end of our event. The team was well organized and listened to our requests, and made some suggestions once they were actually on site to improve the flow of the event. On the day of our wedding, we could not have asked for a better experience. The team was prompt in getting setup and making sure that everything was tested and ready to go. The cloud effect and indoor fireworks display were amazing, and we got several people commenting on it after. The announcements were executed well, and the crowd was engaged by the music and the DJ's personality the entire evening. Overall, I wouldn't hesitate to book CCE for another event or recommend them. They are white glove service from the beginning to the end, and worth every single penny. read more

Having to plan a wedding during the pandemic was extremely hard but the DJ was the Best! Everything was great for us with the DJ service! He played all of the songs we requested and checked in with us throughout the evening or if we needed to make any changes. Everything was perfect!Thank you for making our day so special! read more

We loved having CCE for our MC, DJ, and Photobooth services through Wedgewood Carmel. The entire team was thorough and provided the best customer service from the planning stages to the day of! The owner Leo really shows he cares not only about the reputation of his business but the experience his clients are having. It really felt like family taking care of family it was amazing. We had the best time, it felt magical, surreal, and our friends and family enjoyed the music, the photo booth and the energy brought by the MC Ivan and the entire team. Thank you again for everything, we cannot recommend your company enough, you will not go wrong having CCE for your important life events!! read more

CCE Entertainment did an AMAZING job bringing my vision for my wedding alive. Great customer service with quick responses and being able to do anything I requested. Highly recommend hiring them for your upcoming wedding or events. I got SO many compliments on the DJ, music, sparklers, and dancing on the clouds! 10/10 recommend. read more

CCE delivered a different level experience then other DJ's. Leo (owner) invited us to his office to discuss our upcoming wedding. During the end of COVID, most businesses were hiding from the public - Leo wanted to meet us and let us meet him. That was the first sign that they do something different. Leo also requested a walk through at the venue with the venue staff and us. Again, most show up, plug in and go. Leo wanted to make sure everything was going to be perfect. We booked CCE for their DJ services as well as a number add ons... photo booth, special wedding effects etc. On the day of the event a small army of people arrived to set up. Everything went flawlessly and everyone had a great time. Because many of the guests in our group are not party/dance people I was concerned that the event would be a bit dull. Leo wouldn't let that happen. He had everyone (including a 90 year old and ME) dancing and having a good time. CCE made our son's wedding an incredible event. They deliver on everything they say - in a wonderful and fun way. P.S. Try their "sparklers" and "dancing on a cloud" for wedding pictures that should be in a magazine! Everyone was awed by the experience. read more

We chose CCE for our wedding Jan 2024 and they made our event fabulous! We were the first wedding of the year for them at The Ranch at Silver Creek in San Jose; they partnered with WedgeWood Weddings and provided a memorable experience for our special day. I am a bilingual bride and it was priceless to have DJs that understood my culture and the beauty of our music. We also had a "dancing in the clouds" moment where they had a fog machine release clouds on the dance floor--which amazed not only us but our guests! We got so many compliments from our guests in regards to the music and it was so wonderful to see everyone having such a great time. We were able to upload songs from our Spotify account onto their online portal which was so much more practical than having to write it out. I can only say wonderful things about CCE; they were the perfect team to host our wedding and it turned out as fun and special as it did because of their help. Thank you so much CCE! read more

Leo walked us through everything via our zoom meetings and then he came to our wedding to meet us. It is obvious how Leo is passionate about providing the best experience possible for every one of his clients. He even helped us update our schedule so our wedding flowed seamlessly from the ceremony, to cocktail hour, to reception. We were referred through our venue, Wedgewood Carmel, and thank goodness, because Central Coast Entertainment made the process simple and delivered exactly the music playlist we discussed, provided fun lighting on the dance floor and their Dancing On A Cloud service for our First Dance wowed every one of our guests and covered the fact that we skipped the dance lessons. Ivan was our MC for the night and he was very professional, did a great job and even wore a blue suit which matched out colors. Now, this will be our only wedding, however, we spend every New Years in Monterey/Carmel. Post pandemic we would love to throw a NYE party and when we do, CCE will be who we call to provide the music and special effects. Look no further if you're looking for the best of the best because Central Coast Entertainment is it. Thank you Leo, Ivan and the team for your work, professionalism and dedication to a day we will always remember. Sam & David Egan 09/20/2021 read more

Leo had everyone dancing the entire night! He had a team of 3 and they all did an amazing job and were so friendly and hyped all our guests up. Our guests were very happy and everything was perfectly done. We even had guests asking us for Leo's contact information! For our garter removal, they did a mix for me that was fire I'd highly recommend them for family gatherings, parties, weddings. Their team really went the extra mile for us and we are so grateful for all their hard work in making our wedding such a perfect day! Thank you, CCE! read more

CCE Entertainment - They added sparklers to our first dance! It was a great addition - DJs Near Me - Salinas, California

Leo, Lupe, Ivan, and the rest of the CCE team were so fun to have during this whole wedding experience! Before the wedding, we met at their main office in salinas to go over our wedding timeline. They were very accommodating and easy to talk to. On the wedding day, they had so much energy, and our guests loved having them! They also did a fantastic job keeping a secret about my surprise hula dance for my husband. Thank you sooo much for being a part of our special day! read more

Everyone at CCE was so easy to work with from the very beginning. The meet with you listen to you and really get to know you as a couple so they can make your day everything you really want without you even having to ask them.

I highly recommend CCE for all of your entertainment needs! read more

CCE DJ'd my wedding at Wedgewood Carmel and they seriously are the best. My husband and I had to postpone our wedding a few times due to COVID. For our original date back in April 2020 Wedgewood was contracted with a diferent DJ company and thank goodness they switched to CCE because the other DJ company didn't even remember our names or event date when we had our first appointment. We had a few appointments with Leo before the actual wedding day and he guided us through the whole process of making sure we had all our songs planned out the way we wanted and he made everything super easy. Leo is incredibly personable and was easy to get along with right from the start, he's such a nice guy and you can tell he really loves his company. Unfortunately, Leo couldn't make it to our wedding, but we had DJ Luuupe and Ivan there and they were absolutely amazing! I have never danced more in my entire life. They were very professional and so nice! We asked them to do the ice breaker before our grand entrance at the reception; I didn't get to hear all of it but it sounded like our guests loved it, they were all laughing and it really helped set the mood for the rest of the day. I could not recommend this company more. They helped in large part to make my wedding day the best day of my life and I would work with them all over again if given the option to. read more

We recently had CCE do our wedding DJ, MC, and Photobooth as part of Carmel Fields by Wedgewood. Leo and his wider team were amazing and always helpful. From the website with easy to fill in song lists to zoom meetings to discuss details, Leo and team made the process very straightforward and familiar. Our DJ Lupe the night of was fantastic as was our emcee. Leo with Wedgewood assistance even helped with a grand sparkler send off as a surprise for us which was amazing. Even the photobooth was perfect! CCEs attention to detail, professionalism, and thoughtfulness was amazing. read more

CCE did a great job with MCing our wedding and providing awesome entertainment for all of our guests.

I highly recommend CCE for providing entertainment for your upcoming wedding. read more

CCE was a pleasure to work with for our wedding! They are organized and professional. Would highly recommend!

Central Coast Entertainment was amazing! I had them DJ and Emcee my wedding on August 14th because they were included in my package through Wedgewood Weddings. I didn't know what to expect at first but I was so happy with their service. The owner of the company, Leo even showed up at our wedding which was unexpected but a nice surprise after getting to have the first meeting with him. Each meeting leading up to the wedding were so informative and personal and they really want to know what you want for your big day. On the day of, DJ Lupe and our Emcee Ivan kept the party going and we're really easy for me to work with when figuring out how to mix in the cake cutting, bouquet toss and all. I was worried how things would go because I wanted a to mix a lot of Mexican music into the playlist with everything flowing well and our DJ was so good at mixing the music of both cultures evenly and seamlessly. The Emcee Ivan even said everything in English and in Spanish and I thought that was such a nice touch! I can't say enough good things about this company! They keep the party going all night and are really good at sticking to a playlist if that's your thing like it was for me! If you're looking for a wedding DJ, look no further! read more

We just had our wedding on Friday May 27th. Leo and his team were AMAZING! We held our wedding at Jardines de San Juan and all our guests thought CCE was apart of Jardines because of how well they worked together. Leo and his team were very accommodating and used their expertise to let us know what would work well and what wouldn't. And we don't regret that decision. Our DJ and MC were very attentive to us and everyone noticed. They played the genre of music my now hubby loves and didn't teeter off that list to do what they wanted. We also booked the photo booth with CCE and the pictures were amazing everyone loved it! Don't hesitate to work with CCE they're totally legit and it shows. We can't say enough about Leo and his team! Thank you CCE you all made our day memorable! read more

Leo and his team take their events to the next level. We booked him through our venue and are so glad that he took the time to personally do our wedding. Through a change in event staff at our venue our communication with Leo got a little lost in translation. Despite not being in contact til a few weeks before, we were able to meet with him in person, set everything up in terms of playlist, and he even facilitated our game of LOTERIA that granted our guests access to the buffet. He brought his photo booth with him which was so much fun! We even got our own copy of all the pictures taken there. He created a little video for us, knew all the quirky traditions like víbora de la mar, and even per our request shouted out MOH for her birthday. Thank you so much for all your work and dedication. read more

I'm the Mrs. Miller in the photos up above. Leo and his team were the DJs for our wedding this last weekend and we could not be any happier with our choice to work with them!! Leo went above and beyond for us and we are incredibly thankful to him for that. Not only did he do a phenomenal job of entertaining our guests but he surprised us with some of our favorite photographs and a video compilation that we ADORE!! We had some major snags with our caterer that messed up the timing of our wedding. Leo was amazing in working with us to still fit in all the elements of our wedding that felt most important, remained calm and supportive, and even advocated for us to do a sparkler send off when our venue was unsure about open flames. I cannot say enough good things about our experience. I know that you will be beyond thankful if you choose Leo and his team. You will genuinely feel cared for and well taken care of!! read more

CCE Entertainment and Leo Melgar are two of the best things to happen at my wedding. First of all, who plans a wedding in 6 weeks? This girl. And one of the only reasons I was able to do it without losing my head was because of Leo. From the music, to the lights, to the photobooth. We couldnt have asked for a better company/group/lifetime friend to be such an integral part of our wedding!! My only wish is that we had more reasons to hold big parties with Leo and CCE Entertainment! read more

Beer deal but champagne service! While dealing with vendors during our wedding planning experience was typically stressful - Leo and his team were certainly the exceptions.

Let me start off by saying, that Leo (DJ Galaxy) and his crew did an amazing job at our wedding! I truely mean that. He really goes out of his way to make your day magical, and not only did he not dissapoint, he exceeded expectations for me and my wife. The pre-planning he did was thorough.

Hire this gentleman.. you won't be sorry. I promise. read more

STRESS FREE! I had to point out how easy Leo and his crew made the whole DJ experience easy. My wife and I used CCE Entertainment for our wedding venue. Weddings are super hard to plan, from the venue itself, flowers, food, and most importantly the DJ that sets the tone of the whole event. I reached out to 12 different companies, but Leo was straight forward from day 1. If I would of known about Leo, I would of saved a lot of time shopping for the best person. Words can't begin to describe how good his services were, but I'll do my best to give everyone a small glimpse. I messaged Leo amongst other vendors and he was the most prompt to responding. I told him what I needed and he gave me a quote with no run around additional questions. His online portal made it super easy to coordinate everything. From the beginning of the event until the last minute, nothing was missed or skipped. As the wedding day was approaching, my mindset was all over the place. Leo called me multiple times to check in and assist me, which was huge relief and a weight off my shoulders. The speaker/sound and lightning set up made the whole venue stand out. The introductions and the flow was on point therefore everything went on nice and steady. Once the dance hour started, he got the whole crowd involved and everyone was dancing and having a great time. The only sad part is that I don't know when I'll use his services again, because it's not everyday that you come across a great person such as Leo. So, if you or anyone needs a great DJ or any entertainment, CCE Entertainment is the company to choose. Trust me. I promise I won't steer you wrong, as I'm critical and picky big time. Thank you again for everything. read more

Leo is a true professional! From the moment we met, we knew we were in good hands. He made the process so simple and stress-free with his incredible format and clear communication of each step.

Leo made sure everything went smoothly and worked with us even when our schedule got a bit off course. We could not have been more happy with our service and recommend you book him ASAP! read more
