We hired Erik to DJ for our wedding out at Pechanga in Temecula and he did not disappoint! He's very professional, the lighting he supplies is ambient and perfect, and his taste in music was so similar to ours that everything he played that night was perfect. He had our guests up and dancing all night as well! There's a good reason he is on the preferred vendors list for Pechanga. I just want to thank him again for setting such a fun mood on the most important day of our lives and for being such a wonderful DJ. We highly recommended him for any of your events! -The Roeckers read more

DJ Richterscale - DJs Near Me

For any type of an event, class reunion, wedding or formal gala, I can always count on Erik "DJ Richterscale" to go above and beyond. When I needed a DJ/Emcee for our Junior League Ball, Erik was there and did a fantastic job. He even dressed in costume to match our "An Evening at the Moulin Rouge" theme. During my 4 year position as Wedding Planner at Wilson Creek Winery, it was always a pleasure to have Erik there for my wedding ceremonies and receptions because he was on time and on point. Whenever I needed a DJ/Emcee for my corporate client's 80s themed holiday party, Erik showed up dressed like Prince and kept the party going. For the FOX Foundation's annual Oscar Party fundraising gala, an after party was added to the event and Erik was amazing as an Emcee and music DJ. This was the best event so far and that is due to Erik. I would highly recommend Erik for any special event. read more

DJ Richterscale did our wedding a few months ago in June and my husband and I STILL talk about how memorable it was. We view dancing at a wedding as a form of celebration and we really desired and hoped that the majority of our guests would dance. During our initial meeting, DJ Richterscale talked about how he helps people feel comfortable dancing, even at a dry wedding. Music means a lot to me, and he really connected with me about my favorites and is very knowledgeable about the music I mentioned and even gave other requests. Being a full time student, I was too busy to create my own playlists, so I entrusted it to him. At the end of the meeting, we felt really assured. Everything that he mentioned, he delivered!! He got our guests dancing, even guests that I didn't think would dance! He came with his own light effects and with the lights dimmed (best way to dance), we were all just so happy!! He is a good announcer and he worked well with my wedding coordinator. In addition, he responds promptly, is kind, considerate and is easy to get along with! I recommend DJ Ricterscale to anybody who would like good music, a great personality and a wonderful dance party. read more

We hired Erik for our wedding, and it was the best choice we could have made! We set up a meeting with him ahead of time just to talk about things, and we immediately knew that he was going to be great!

He was great at reading the room to cater to what our guests were responding to. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ for their event! read more

Erik (DJ Richterscale) was phenomenal for our wedding in October in Santa Monica. He was extremely responsive, coordinated seamlessly with our wedding coordinator and brought professionalism and kindness to the day!

DJ Richterscale - DJs Near Me

I first found out about DJ Richterscale (Erik) on Thumbtack. It was about 2 months before our wedding and the DJ we originally hired was no longer able to DJ for us. I went on thumbtack and received a bunch of responses to my post but DJ Richterscale stood out to us. We contacted him immediately and he was quick to respond and able to meet with us within a few days. Within the first 5 minutes of meeting him we knew it was only for the best that our first DJ didn't work out. We met with him for about an hour and he already had a good idea of what kind of music we liked and didn't like. Within a few days he sent us a ton of music choices for all of the dances (mother/son, father/daughter, cake cutting, etc.). The day of our wedding Erik was awesome! He set up everything he needed for the ceremony only to find out by the wedding coordinator that it all had to be moved. He was able to quickly move everything around and get settled before the ceremony was set to start. Also, our wedding coordinator had to leave the reception early and Erik was able to take over and keep things going. He was the one to coordinate the grand entrance, the toasts, releasing tables to eat, the cake cutting, the bouquet toss/garter removal and all of the dancing in between. He also worked with our photographers and videographers to make sure they knew what was next so they were ready to film. The Party- DJ Richterscale was AMAZING! He was so good at reading the crowd to see what type of music everyone liked to keep the party going. He is a true DJ and the music flowed so effortlessly from one song to the next. Everyone had so much fun at our wedding and it is all thanks to DJ Richterscale. He played all of the music we requested and allowed our guests to make requests as well. One person requested a song that he thought we wouldn't like since it was on our "we're not really a fan of this type of music list" and he even checked with us to make sure it was ok to play. The best part is he is so passionate about what he does, you can tell he loves what he does and he is so good at it. Thanks to him our wedding went so perfectly. I will definitely keep him in mind for future events and will recommend him to anyone that needs a DJ. read more

He was very professional and had the dance floor full all night! We couldn't have been happier read more

As an event planner, it's important to work with people you can reply on. I recently had the pleasure of working with Erik aka DJ Richterscale at a wedding. It was nice to have a friendly, trustworthy DJ to count on. He arrived early, prepared, and well dressed. Erik timed the music for the wedding ceremony PERFECTLY. The guests could all hear the Officiant clearly, as well as the bride and groom. Erik was always very flexible with the Order of Events and accommodating to guests' song requests. He was an absolute joy to work with. He's lighthearted, cheerful, and positive. Plus, he can get the party started! All in all, we had a successful event...so much so that I had to hire him for my own wedding! I highly recommend using DJ Richterscale to all my clients. Jeramee YoureWelcomeEvents.com read more

ERIK was beyond FABULOUS! He just DJ'd my wedding this past weekend at Gold Mountain Manor, and killed it! It wouldn't have been a party without him! He played all of our favorites and read the crowd perfectly! Honestly, I was really worried about getting everyone to dance before the wedding. There was never a dull moment on the dance floor! You can tell he loves his job. He did a pre-event interview, and had a list of questions to ask me about what we wanted the night to look like. He is a must have all any event that requires music! P.S. My mom wants to say "two thumbs up" and that he is an outstanding and honest man. read more

I couldn't have been happier with my decision to book with him. I was an overwhelmed DIY bride and I bit off way more than I could chew. We were very tight on budget and I was at first hesitant to book a dj because I didn't see it as "necessary" after talking with Erik on the phone he really put me at ease and let me tell you...... out of all of my wedding expenses, booking with Erik was the best decision I made for the entire wedding. He has the perfect MC voice and helped the wedding move smoothly and efficiently. He was professional and fun all at the same time. Everyone had a great time. Look no further for your perfect DJ for any event. Highly recommended!!! read more

Erik DJ'd our wedding and it was incredible. We are two musicians in the San Diego Symphony, and as you can imagine, our ceremony choice of music was not the norm. He sat down with us over skype for about 2 hours and we just chatted about music. We went through everything from the ceremony to RSVP song requests, dislike lists, dinner music, Dance music, and went through the schedule minute by minute...from the order of the ceremony to the end of the evening. Erik basically was our coordinator once the ceremony started. He even made sure we had dinner. He read the room beautifully throughout the whole evening and constantly checked in on us to make sure everything was going how we wanted. As he will tell you, "you only get one chance, so you better do it right the first time", and he definitely delivered. We had a blast. Can't say enough good things about Erik aka DJ Richterscale. read more

Let's be honest - one of the most important components to a wedding is the DJ. He/she is responsible for getting the party started and keeping it going....and DJ Richterscale did not disappoint. Erik was the perfect choice for our wedding which was earlier this month at Gold Mountain Manor up in Big Bear. His pricing was very reasonable and he did a wonderful job. He was very thorough in talking to us both to make sure he made great song selections and helped direct us to picking important songs for the big day. Our guests were particularly impressed with how he paid attention during all the toasts, adding certain sound bytes where appropriate. It really added to the night. I'd highly recommend him to anyone. Thanks Erik! read more

Well, what can I say... Erik made our wedding this last Thursday 10/6, so much fun! without a doubt one of if not the best DJ I have ever experienced. He was on top of everything for us, from the wedding to the reception! He went over and beyond to listen to you a head of your day not only to know your music choices but to know you too! He just knew when to do and play every song at the right time never had to ask or remind him about anything! I would highly recommend using him for any of your party or wedding needs he will do the very best for you, we were very impressed and he made our day so memorable. Thank you Erik!! read more

We've never hired a DJ before and by nature are a bit skeptical.We were in need of a DJ for our wedding and Erik came highly recommended by a friend so, we decided to have a conversation with him and see if he was the right fit for our special day. We quickly learned that a wedding DJ runs the event and is essential to keeping things on track. Erik is professional, has great energy, and helped guide us through the ins and outs of our wedding ceremony and reception. There is a ton to think about when it comes to what song or songs to choose and when to play them. With his guidance we were able to create a timeline of our day and select songs for the prominent moments. If you don't know what songs you want to play he has a list of recommendations that you can use. We used some of the recommended songs and some of the recommended songs inspired additional thoughts for other songs we ended up using. He has a ton of experience and is always listening in ... this allows him to continue to customize the day/event. For example the best man made a large reference to Seinfeld during his best man speech and at the conclusion of the speech Erik played a clip from the Seinfeld theme song. Hilarious, everyone laughed!! He takes the time to get to know you as a couple, what music you grew up with, what music genres you prefer, what to put on your do not play list, and has a professional way of handling requests by guests. He doesn't drink and even went to the extent of wearing our wedding colors! All of our guests raved about our DJ and I'm thrilled to say we're impressed! Thank you Erik for making our day extra fun and special!! Oh and I failed to mention we had a daytime wedding ... we weren't sure how Erik was going to get everyone on the dance floor in broad daylight but, he had a few great tricks up his sleeve and we had a great dance party!!! read more

Erik was our DJ for our wedding, and he did a fantastic job! I had multiple people come up to me during our wedding and compliment us on our music. It honestly turned in to a great big dance party, with friends family members of all ages and backgrounds out on the floor! He was extremely accommodating in terms of our wishes and music styles, even though my husband and I differed slightly in preferences. He was extremely helpful in the planning process as well, and provided us with many suggestions and options that helped spark our creativity and decisions. Would definitely use him again for a future event! read more

Erik produced the entertainment for our wedding November 23, 2013 and let us tell you, words can not do justice for the amazing job Erik did. When we first met Erik and he presented his portfolio, we were thoroughly impressed with his work and professionalism. We knew he would provide excellent entertainment at our reception. As I mentioned above though, Erik was beyond excellent. As if normal with weddings, everything was not going perfect, so naturally my bride was a little rattled when we arrived to the venue. As we walked in Erik immediately walked up to us and welcomed and congratulated us. He started talking agenda with my bride asap and ensured her that he had everything under control. Her demeanor seemed so much more relax after she spoke with Erik and really started to enjoy her wedding at that point. He continued to check up on her throughout the venue and asked her if she would like to deviate from the agenda. Erik made it his responsibility to make sure my wife enjoyed her day, he also made sure the agenda was followed precisely, and most importantly he made sure the party was amazing and truly memorable. We highly recommend Erik for any type of party you might be planning. He is not only great at his job, but he is simply a great person and pleasure to work with! Thank You Erik! With Love, Brianda and Ray read more

If you are looking for a great Dj, Erik is your guy. He is so personable and pays close attention to detail. His prices are affordable and goes into a job with 110%. My husband and I got married in June in Cancun and a few weeks after we had a home reception, in which we reached out Thumbtack and Erik contacted us immediately. He plays what you want and avoids what you dont. He arrived on early to get set up and read yfor our event and dj'd his heart out. We had so many compliments on our DJ, and some even thought he was a family friend because if the way he approached his announcements. Thank you again Erik! read more

I'm as hard as they come on reviews. That said, all I can say is Erik is top notch. He ran our wedding like a well oiled machine. I can't say enough about him. From his pricing to his set up, Erik is a solid 10 out of 10. He took the stress of finding a good DJ away. Any one who wants a more detailed description can contact me for a reference. Best wedding DJ in Southern California, hands down. read more

Erik DJ'd our wedding in June of this year. First of all he was incredibly professional. From what I could perceive, his main concern was our satisfaction. He was prompt, full of energy, and very polite. So, as a businessman he is top notch! Secondly, as a DJ, he is incredible! He's a lover of music, and I greatly appreciate that! He read our crowd very well. I don't think there was a time where the dance floor wasn't full of people. I highly recommend his services. You will not be disappointed! Thank you Erik! read more

Erik was awesome! He was our wedding dj on July 11, 2013 at the Dana Point Yacht Club. We had so many compliments on how good the dj was.. They kept saying "he's playing some good music". & not only did he play really good music, but he coordinated our wedding events (cake, garter toss, bouquet toss, etc.) to the tee.. If it were not for him, the night would have been SOOO hectic with no actual agenda.. He showed up way early giving himself plenty of time to set up, he was dressed perfect (of course with his signature hat :)) & he even served as the choreographer to me & our guests for some of the interactive songs.. All in all, it was a very fun night & we couldn't be more satisfied with our decision in choosing Erik as our dj. (PS. Our hot pink & royal blue uplights that he provided were also perfect!) thank you Erik ;) read more

Erik was so professional, he met with us prior to our event, gathered our favorite songs (Played them all) and got on the dance floor keeping us in step to the most current line dances. He was fantastic! Easy to work with and so much fun keeping all our guest happy. You could not ask for a better DJ to keep the party going. No need to shop any further, just hire this guy and watch your party and budget hit on all points. read more

We chose Erik as the DJ for our wedding in Big Bear, Ca on September 16, 2017. We couldn't be happier with our choice! In the months leading up to the wedding, Erik was very attentive and answered all of our questions. He also took the time to ask questions of his own in order to get to know us individually and as a couple. My husband and I have somewhat different tastes in music, and Erik did a wonderful job of melding our tastes at the wedding. Erik also had several good suggestions when we had trouble choosing a song for this or that part of the wedding. Besides his amazing DJ skills, he was also very professional and easy to work with. Thank you, Erik, for make our special day that much more amazing! read more

DJ Erik Redmond is your go-to, must have, everybody wants DJ. I first met Erik through youth sports in Riverside, and then had the pleasure of getting to know him as a really, really good DJ. Erik is the City of Riverside's Ghost Walk DJ, a fun event held each Oct. by the Mission Inn. Erik plays all the popular songs, is super kid friendly, and can change hats quickly for adult events. I have utilized Erik for DJ parties at our local elementary school, and the kids love him. He comes prepared, but his reputation as a professional, fun DJ proceeds him. He comes prepared with games and goodies for the kids, and plays all of the songs the both kids & adults love. A good investment, you will pleased time & again with this awesome DJ! I look forward to utilizing his services again in the future, and highly recommend him! read more
