    DJ Rival is truly a gem! We were lucky enough to hire him to DJ at our 145 guest wedding in Anaheim…read morelast summer and we were so lucky we found him! From our first conversation he made me feel at ease about the event. He was communicative and easy to work with. He gave us a worksheet to make sure he had all of the right songs and knew what to expect for the event. I gave him a schedule and he followed it perfectly, making sure the event ran smoothly. He excused guests for dinner and timed it wonderfully. He also worked very well with a few of our family and friends who played some live music. Our venue had some noise restrictions and he worked within the parameters with no problems. His rates are incredibly fair and he is well worth it! Overall I would highly recommend Joseph (DJ Rival) for anyone's special event!

    DJ Rival is the Definition of Professionalism…read more Due to some last-minute changes, we suddenly found ourselves in need of a DJ just one week before our event. Our event was mid-day on a weekday, which I assumed would make things easier, but the process of finding someone turned into a frustrating exercise. I called eight DJs in total. Four of them never returned my calls. Two did respond but tried to take advantage of the short timeline by quoting me outrageously high prices. One wouldn't put his pricing in a written agreement, which was a deal breaker since agreements protect both parties equally. By the time I reached the last name on my list (Joseph Delgado, also known as DJ Rival) I was almost out of patience. Looking back, I wish I had called him first because it would have saved me an enormous amount of time and stress. From the very first contact, Joseph stood apart. Within minutes of reaching out, he called me back. We spoke on the phone, exchanged a few texts and emails, and in no time he had confirmed his availability, offered a fair and reasonable price, and sent me a professional contract that clearly outlined responsibilities and expectations on both sides. The way he handled it gave me immediate confidence. The next day he followed up with more thoughtful questions, asking me to clarify exactly what I envisioned for the event so he could be sure he was preparing the right equipment and the right approach. That kind of follow-through showed me that he was serious about getting it right. In the days leading up to the event, he checked in several more times. He also asked for a copy of the event script so he would know exactly when to play music, when to keep things quiet, and when to hand the spotlight over to speakers. That level of preparation made all the difference. Every conversation reassured me that he was paying close attention to the details and wanted to be absolutely certain that nothing would be left to chance. On the day itself, he arrived two hours early. His setup wasn't simple (he had to cover multiple areas of the venue with sound) but he handled it seamlessly. He came equipped with a high-quality UHF microphone, which completely eliminated the static and interruptions you often hear with cheaper gear. Throughout the event, Joseph was a true professional. He was well dressed, blended in effortlessly with the setting, and somehow managed to be everywhere he needed to be without ever calling attention to himself. Music cues were hit perfectly. Transitions were smooth. He was attentive without being intrusive. When the event wrapped up, he packed his equipment quickly and neatly, accepted payment via Zelle (which was far more convenient than dealing with cash) and was on his way. Working with Joseph was a textbook example of professionalism from start to finish. He turned what began as a stressful scramble into one of the smoothest parts of our entire event. I've already shared his website and contact information with several people and will continue to recommend him to anyone who wants a DJ they can trust completely. If you're looking for peace of mind, don't waste time calling around like I did. Call DJ Rival first.

    We couldn't have asked for a better DJ and MC for our wedding! From start to finish, Shane did such…read morean amazing job keeping the energy fun and making sure everything flowed smoothly throughout the night. He knew exactly when to make announcements, transition into the next part of the evening, and keep everything moving without ever making it feel rushed or forced. One thing I was especially happy about was how perfectly he handled all of our music. I've been to weddings where the DJ accidentally played the wrong song or missed a cue, so I was a little nervous about that going into our wedding, but we had absolutely none of those issues. Everything was played exactly when it was supposed to be, and I never had to worry about a thing. He also went above and beyond by taking photos and videos throughout the night on the side. It was such a fun surprise getting to see our wedding from a completely different point of view, especially moments we didn't get to see ourselves. The biggest compliment, though, was hearing our guests talk about how great our DJ was at the end of the night. So many people commented on how much fun they had and how great the music and overall energy were. He played such a huge part in making our reception as fun and memorable as it was. We're so grateful he was part of our wedding day and would 100% recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ and MC who is organized, attentive, fun, and knows exactly how to keep a wedding going.

    He played a lot of good hits. A little bit of R&B, hip hop, pop and funk Definitely would hire him…read morefor our next party event!

    Dean is the real deal -- hire him and stop worrying…read more We had Dean as our DJ/MC for our wedding reception, and he was hands down the best MC we have ever worked with. From our very first conversation he was extremely professional and organized, and it never let up. Every email answered, every detail confirmed, every timeline change handled without a hint of stress on our end. What we loved most was his flexibility. Our schedule shifted more than once as we worked around photography coverage and a mariachi set, and Dean just rolled with it and made it work. His attention to detail is honestly rare in this business. He asked the right questions, remembered the little things we mentioned in passing, and made sure the special moments -- the entrances, the toasts -- landed exactly the way we pictured them. He genuinely has your back on the details that matter to you. He is also just easy to work with. No ego, no upsell, no drama. You can tell he is passionate about his trade and that he actually cares about your day, not just the next gig. Our guests were still talking about him afterwards. If you are looking for a DJ/MC who will not let you down, Dean is the guy. Five stars is not enough. Thank you, Dean -- you were worth every penny and then some.

    DJ Dean checked off all the boxes we were looking for and more! Highly recommend him for dual DJ +…read moreEmcee services, everything was super smooth with him from as early as wedding planning process to the special day itself. Dean did his best to not just present himself as a DJ + emcee, but also to carefully plan out the agenda of the wedding, working closely with our coordinator to have a detailed timeline with specific songs (and even timeframes for some songs) playing exactly as my wife and I had envisioned them to play. When it came time for reception fun and games, we let Dean have creative liberty over how he would like to keep the crowd engaged during dinnertime, and all of his suggestions and implementations were a hoot! We could really rest at east and enjoy the night's events knowing Dean had it all smoothly handled, and our guests had a blast with every activity. So honored to have had Dean at our wedding!

They offered a reasonable and flexible package that fit our needs and their online forum was super easy and fun to work with. DJ Chris collaborated closely with us throughout the entire process and even offered valuable insight into how we could make our reception event better. When it came time to execute we were absolutely blown away by his services. He did an incredible job as our EMCEE and kept the party going all through the night. What we absolutely loved (and was a huge hit), was the saxophone player who added a bit of elegance and soul to both our cocktail hour and the reception. We would absolutely recommend SoundWave Productions and DJ Chris to anyone!

    Working with Chris from SoundWave Productions was seamless. We had met with several DJs but after…read moreour first meeting with Chris, we knew he was the one we wanted to work with! He really brought the party and the dance floor was full all night! Having cold sparklers was a must for me and so we added those to our package for the grand entrance and first dance. There was a questionnaire on our portal that we filled out and it was a fun activity to do as a couple. There were premade playlists to give us ideas for ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and reception music. You can also create your own playlist on spotify and add it to the portal so that they can see your personalized tastes. We created a playlist for each part of the night to give Chris an idea of the vibe we wanted for each, but also wanted to make sure he knew he could play what he saw fit for the guests' vibes as well. It was funny because there were definitely some songs that I had wanted to put on the playlist but didn't (I didn't want to overwhelm him with too many), but throughout the night he would play some songs and every single time I was like "omg I love this song! I know I didn't add this to the playlist, but this is exactly what I like!" He did such a great job, everyone had a blast and said the music was so fun. We also added CO2 guns last minute and they were a hit. 100000/10 recommend adding those. He also had someone on his team who was taking videos and put together an instagram reel that was super cool!! Thank you Chris for making our night so memorable and such a fun party!
