An Incredible Experience with the Carcano Family

Where do we even start with the Carcano family! It was an absolute pleasure to work with them in orchestrating my wedding at the Hyatt Regency in Long Beach. Michael and his family were incredibly kind, responsive, and efficient during the contracting process. They gave my wife and I full confidence that we were working with professionals and that the final product would be everything we had dreamed of and more. That is not to mention the fact that the services Michael was providing were priced extremely competitively and fairly. On the wedding day, the draping in the venue was absolutely stunning and shattered all our expectations. In all, working with the Carcano family was one of the best decisions my wife and I made for our wedding and we will take advantage of their services for our large events in the future. Endless thank yous to the Carcano family!!

Ryan’s awesome!

I had Ryan as my DJ for the wedding, and I have to say this is definitely the right decision I’ve made because he’s awesome! He pays attention to details, listens to you, and is very knowledgeable about his field. He knows what he does, and knows how to meet or even exceed your expectation! I would highly recommend Ryan to any couples who are looking for a DJ for their weddings. I assure you he will do an excellent job making your special day even more memorable! Thank you Ryan!

Carcano DJ was incredible!!

Mike did a beautiful job at the ceremony and the cocktail party. Then a fabulous job for the reception and dancing. DJ's are so important when it comes to a wedding.
Everyone loved him, he was a great MC/DJ and entertained everyone ALL NIGHT.
All the guests were complimenting the perfect selection of music he played. The flow of the wedding was flawless. They also did a beautiful job lighting the venue. We would give him 10 stars if we could, I can’t say this enough, Mike was perfect. We highly recommend Carcano DJ for any party you have.
They were the BEST.

Carcano DJ was one of the most professional DJs I have worked with. The DJ who worked our particular event kept the dance floor packed every second! I can't remember a moment when the crowd wasn't moving! There is nothing worse than an empty dance floor and being able to read a crowd is key!
