    Dependable; crowd pleaser, best in show!

    Ernest did a great job with the music and photo booth at our wedding (6/3/21)! Very easy to work with and highly recommend him.

    Prior to the wedding I worked with Ernest on the phone. He was very pleasant and responsive answering questions. For the wedding, AC was our DJ and he did a great job. Before the wedding, they requested a detailed form with music preferences, favorite songs, do-not-play list, etc. I think all the selections during our wedding were right in line with what we wanted and expected. AC also had the right amount of interaction with the guests. We were very pleased with the service.

    Hands down best wedding DJ in San Antonio. Ernest made everything so stress free on the most important part of the party - the music!! He kept the crowd (500 guests!) on their feet the whole night! Out bride and groom performance went smoothly even with our special guest. I would recommend DJ Masquerade to every bride, time and time again our guests told us it was the best and most fun wedding they had ever been too!

    Fantastic DJ!!! He did great, took all requests and shut off songs that no one was dancing to. He kept the party alive until midnight when this cinderella had to get some sleep! It was supposed to be the owner but he couldn't make it, and of course I don't remember the DJs name, but he was excellent.

    We hired Ernest for our January wedding. From the beginning, he was in contact with my wedding planner & myself concerning the music, timeline and kept me in the loop if he didn't receive the information he needed.

    DJ Masquerade did a great job coordinating with the venue & arrived hours early to make sure everything was in place.

    DJ Masquerade had our guest dancing all evening. We was very happy with the music and lights! He helped us create a night that we'll never forget!

    He is a great DJ and I highly recommend him for your weddings. Thank you Ernest!

    Earnest is really the best DJ I've ever met. The music shifted smoothly between every dance session, Earnest was able to guide and lift the party atmosphere to a new level. From the experienced handling of those instruments I could sens his professionalism in this field and everyone was reluctant to leave the dance floor when music ended. Thanks for giving my party a good impression to all our guests.

    DJ Masquerade & Photo Booths's reply:

    Thank you so much for your review it is so very important to me to make sure everyone has a great time and judging by the dance floor a wonderful time was had by all.

    Thank you so much for putting your trust in me for the most important day of everyones life and for being such a very nice couple to work with! Love is the answer to make this world a better place!

    Thank God for Ernest! I had procrastinated and procrastinated on booking a DJ for my July 3 wedding, getting as far as researching online and bookmarking a few of interest. So in June, I start flipping out because I still don't have a DJ! I forget the exact connection, but a neighbor's friend is the mother of Ernest, or something like that, so I was recommended to go with Masquerade. I could not be more pleased with the decision! He is professional and does his best to find out what music we wanted played. One DJ I had started to look more into sent this ridiculous song list, telling me to check the ones we liked...I was SO overwhelmed. Besides, some songs I may like and not know their title, and there was no way I was going to google or youtube every title on the list I didn't recognize to check it - who has time for that? Anyway, Ernest has a sheet where you list a few songs you would specifically like during dinner, and also list a few songs during the dancing part of the reception. He really broke everything down and clarified it in a way that really made me feel good about him. He explained that with the toasts and the bouquet toss, etc etc, he doesn't need a giant list of songs from me, because in reality, there will not be 100 songs played - time simply does not permit! He does have a huge database that you can browse online, and any song that he does not have, it is very easy for him to get it for you. Another wonderful quality with him is that he is flexible - our budget was a little tight, and he came down a lot for us in price but not in quality at all; he still set up a great sound system and the lights with it. Our ceremony/reception site staff, at Granberry Hills, was also well acquainted with him (on a first-name basis), which further lent to his credibility as a trusted and experienced DJ, which we were looking for. We would not have had a reception if it was not for Ernest, and it all turned out great!

    DJ Masquerade was the best part of my wedding because all of my friends and family had the best night and danced from beginning till the big send off. Ernest was dressed in a tuxedo and the system and lights were really great. I am very happy with the communication and service I received during the process and especially at my reception.

    Ernest was awesome, he provided music for the ceremony and played all the music we asked. He was able to get everyone on the dance floor and they danced until the last song ended.

    Ernest was highly recommended to us by our wedding planner, and he did not let us down! He provided us with a planning sheet that allowed us to choose a few examples of the style of music we wanted, and the day of he did an awesome job! Ernest was very caring and helpful throughout the whole process. During the reception, he had everyone out on the dance floor, and our guests had a blast! He also provided lighting, which was beautiful, and a photo booth that everyone had fun with. Great DJ, wonderful service!

    DJ Masquerade & Photo Booths's reply:

    Leisha, Thank you so Very much for your review and I remember your beautiful reception as if it was yesterday. I loved your friends and family and your father was worried about some things but everything went Great ! I especially loved the Aggie Fight song and I took a quick video of everyone in a circle and the audience were all standing up and having so much fun! I have played at Pat O'Brien's many times but the way you orchestrated the decor was the Best I have ever seen and your Logo on the wall came out on all the pictures. I had many people thank me after your exit about how much fun they had which shows that you and your fiance did a Great job in selecting the music that I played. Than you so much for allowing me to provide the Music Soundtrack for the first day of your Happily Ever After !

    We used Ernest of DJ Masquerade. He did a great job. Played the exact music I requested him to play. We had a small wedding. So there weren't as many requests to him to have do. We didn't do the bouquet toss, or garter toss. Everything was simple. I do wish he could of gotten the party more into the music. Got more people onto the dance floor. We actually used him from a recommendation from a friend. He's good at what he does. I'd have him be our DJ again, maybe request more interaction the next time!!

    DJ Masquerade & Photo Booths's reply:

    January, thank you for your review and I looked up the forms you submitted and I reviewed my music log on your date back in January 24, 2015 on my computer to confirm that yes I played every song that you selected plus I did take requests from your guests and your bridal party that was at the table next to me when I was in the corner of the Barn. I certainly appreciate your input and I always do my best at each event and I do remember many people during and after your reception that came over to me to thank me for keeping the volume under control and they really enjoyed the music that was played. Thank you for having me provide the music on the First day of your Happily Ever After, I hope you and your new husband are doing Great and thank you for stating that you would use me again !

    DJ Masquerade provided the music and emcee duties for my daughter's wedding. We all enjoyed the music and flow of the evening, and appreciated Ernest's friendliness and professionalism in the meeting and emails prior to the wedding. We would recommend DJ Masquerade to others.

    They did a great job DJing my wedding and played the right music to keep the party going. They were a little hard to get a hold of prior to the wedding but very professional. Overall, very happy with them.

    DJ Masquerade was great about communicating with me as we planned our weddng from a distance. But, as another reviewer also mentioned, the DJ didn't play some of the music that we had specifically requested. Despite that though, the DJ really knew what he was doing and we literally had people dancing all night long at the reception as a result! So, in the end, I was glad that the DJ took some liberties and played the music that he knew everyone would enjoy throughout the reception.

    Ernest provided excellent service and was a delight to have work our wedding. Worked great with us, as my hubby picked out 90% of the music! Ernest plugged all those songs in, mixed in a few more and all our guest danced the night away and raved about the "awesome DJ"!

    Great job and a pleasure to work with. The DJ tried everything to get people out there to dance and worked really hard to make people happy. It was just too hot (June 20th in South Texas) and the venue's air conditioning was not working but our DJ worked so hard to play what people wanted to hear and get everyone dancing. He was very attentive to my husband and I and was very considerate of what we wanted and didn't want to hear. He did a fabulous job of keeping our wedding on pace with our time schedule. The online bill pay was a great plus, too. Easy to work with and easy to dance to! I would recommend for future brides!

    DJ Masquerade & Photo Booths's reply:

    Amy, this is Ernest and I just saw your wonderful review and it is so very important to all of us and for future brides to see feedback like this because each wedding is so Very important. Thank you so much for your input and I will pass this along to Jesse the DJ assigned for your reception. Jesse has been a DJ with DJ Masquerade for many years and he always does his best to accomodate all ages and all music styles and I know Bertha from Los Encinos really likes Jesse and all of our DJ's from DJ Masquerade because she knows it is going to be a success so she has us on her approved vendor list like many other facilities like the Club at Sonterra, The Dominion, all three Hyatts, the Marriott and many other facilities. I know you will have a wonderful marriage and if you have another family member or co worker looking for a professional DJ Service please keep DJ Masquerade in mind.
