    Amazing DJ & MC

    We had a great experience with Chris from PanteraCali for our wedding this past weekend! He stayed connected with us throughout the planning process and made sure every detail was communicated and in place for our big day. From the start, he was quick to respond to us and always kept in touch. He MC’d for us in both English & Spanish which was great for our families. Throughout the entire reception, our guests could not stop dancing! Everyone was talking about his music selection and transitions the next morning. Dancing with our entire family throughout the night is one of the most memorable parts of our wedding thanks to Chris! We also loved the customized monogram with our initials and the glow in the dark sticks were the best to keep the party going for the last hour of our wedding. We could not recommend them more!

    Our wedding day exceeded our expectations due to Pantera Event Productions.

    We found Pantera Productions Events from theknot/wedding wire and let Chris and his team be the ones to DJ your wedding. We were looking for a bilingual DJ who can clearly and concisely explain or give announcements to guests. Chris and his team executed and exceeded our expectations and allow us to explain further.

    Since the planning process, Chris has been responsive, professional, and flexible with our schedule. We switched our wedding date and venue after booking with Chris and he was super accommodating with this change. After booking, he walks you through the whole process from the timeline, type of microphones we could use to the flow of the music and beats per minute of the songs. He truly gets you hyped up for the day months in advance. We would always end the call happy and relieved knowing our trust was in the team. For the day of the wedding, Chris and his team had all the equipment ready and the upgraded set up was so worth it! With the lights and the modern DJ stand, it was beautiful. We had no microphone issues during the ceremony but were assured to see his team on standby if we had any issues. He picked up on cues and made announcements throughout the day if deemed necessary. When it was time for dinner, he explained in both languages to our guests about the seating chart as our families were not familiar with assigned seating, thus making it a seamless transition into dinner. Our grand entrance exceeded our expectations. He hyped up the guests so much that our guests were cheering and even twirling napkins!! It was so lively when we walked in. It was our dream grand entrance and I can’t stop reminiscing about this special moment.

    He was so involved in our wedding throughout the day that he spoke to our violinist (who had played for the ceremony) and she ended up staying the whole night. As an impromptu for our first dance, the DJ played the tracks and the Violinist played her electric violin using his speakers. I still to this day have no idea how they were able to seamlessly set it up so quickly. But it was one of the highlights from the whole day and our guests raved about it! He understood the vibes from the guests and played music that kept people on the dance floor all night. Out of the two hours of dancing, I barely left the dance floor. Let this be your sign to book Chris and his team, you will be in good hands!

    Best DJ in all of NorCal!!

    If you’re looking for a talented, bilingual, and professional DJ that will keep EVERYONE on the dance floor - look no further!! Chris and his team did an amazing job with executing our music preference (something we really cared about) and left our guests raving about how amazing the song choice and transitions were all weekend long! They have state of the art equipment that will make your dance floor view look incredible. I can go on and on about why they are worth every penny! We have been to a lotttt of weddings and finally it was our turn after 10 years together. Not to toot our own horn, but we absolutely had the BEST dance floor and it’s all thanks to Chris! Seriously, Pantera Event Productions is the top choice for any event!!!

    The best DJ ever!!

    My husband and I had the pleasure of having Chris be our wedding DJ & MC. He is AMAZING at what he does!!! Chris made the planning process very easy. He helped guide me and give me recommendations when there was something I was unsure about. Day of the wedding, he helped keep the timeline flowing. Once he opened up the dance floor, he kept every guest engaged and fed off of their energy. Most of my guests did not leave the dance floor all night! Definitely 10/10 recommend!!

    Incredible!!!

    1000/10 Would recommend Pantera Event Productions for their DJ service. He did above and beyond amazing at our wedding and couldn't be more satisfied with his work ethic and professionalism throughout the wedding planning. Christian is great at what he does and knows exactly how to read the room. Couldn't recommend Pantera enough.

    Hire pantera immediately

    I couldn’t recommend Chris and the Pantera Events team enough. We could find anyone we liked in our area that was also bilingual and we were more than impressed with Chris and his ability to travel to Oregon for us! From day one we made a plan together, he worked together with our wedding planner and vendors and it was executed better than I could have imagined. I wish I could have him at every event!!

    Thank you Chris and Jacquie for an unforgettable night!

    Hiring the best DJ service for our Canadian/Venezuelan wedding was so important to us in order to celebrate our culture and new marriage the right way. I was pretty worried because I know having a lame DJ can ruin your event but we are so lucky that we found Chris and Jacquie! They absolutely crushed it from start to finish and made the entire experience stress-free for my wife and I. We had two easy meetings over Zoom and Chris was so organized and thorough, he understood exactly what our vision was for the night. He took the time to get to know us as a couple and we instantly vibed - his DJ style is the perfect combination of laid back/not too “in your face” (we all know that kind of DJ lol) and energetic. We gave Chris the tough job of pleasing two very different crowds and somehow found a way to keep everyone dancing the entire night. The mixes between oldies/disco/reggaton/hip-hop/throwbacks/salsa/merengue were impeccable and every single song was an absolute banger. Not only was the dancing better than we ever could have imagined, he also created an amazing vibe for the dinner portion and we even made the poor guy MC a handful of wedding reception games, which he handled without blinking an eye. Our friends and family couldn’t stop raving about what a blast they had and we only have Chris and Jacquie to thank for that. I didn’t even see or hear them set-up because he and Jacquie are so professional and efficient. Thank you Pantera Cali DJ services for letting our wedding live up to the hype - we’re so grateful!!

    Dream wedding = good music!

    Finding the right MC and DJ for our wedding was one of the most important things on our task list. We wanted to ensure that this person could accommodate for our English and Spanish speaking guests as well as showcase the beauty of both of our cultures through music ( Mexican and Colombian) We were blessed to be partnered with Chris who helped us along the way. His timeliness via email, text and Zoom calls helped us stay confident and stress free. Music is one of the most important aspects of a wedding! Chris was also very knowledgeable in the music genres and timeline of events which helped our big day go smoothly. Our dance floor was filled with people thanks to Chris! We have heard great feedback from our guests and are so grateful for his work and experience. Highly recommend booking Chris (Pantera Event Productions) for your next event!

    Highly recommend

    We had such an amazing time with Chris and Jacquie at our wedding! The music was exactly what we talked about during our meetings while planning and he was great making announcements and helping our evening to move along. The music was fun and everyone was dancing at the end of the night. Chris was also very responsive and helped answer our questions about what a good timeline would look like among other things we weren’t sure about throughout the process. He was friendly and professional. We’d highly recommend him and his team for any other couples looking for a wedding DJ!

    Best wedding ever, thanks to pantera!

    Chris Vargas and Pantera Events truly made our dreams come true the night of our wedding! Out of all the stress of planning, music and MC details were never one of them! Our guests can’t stop raving about our DJ and the music selection (which he was very flexible with)! We were Chris’ first Greek wedding and he killed it! We supplied him with the files and link for the songs we wanted and he incorporated them perfectly! The extra small stuff Chris and his wife did to make our day even more special were so appreciated. The gobo light, the glow sticks, the lights on the dance floor, everything came together perfectly! Their set up, attention to detail, and amazing equipment were awesome! We loved their white, sleek and contemporary DJ stand and it looked beautiful with the decor in our venue.

    We will never find the right words to express how awesome our night was with Pantera! My husband and I never left the dance floor, and we truly had the best night of our lives. All of our guests cannot stop telling us what an awesome night they had.

    Definitely would recommend! 10/10

    Wedding was lit

    Chris & Jacquie were amazing to work with. From the start of the process and to the end, Chris helped us prep and gave us confidence leading to the day, which I hugely appreciated. Dancing and music was very important to us and when we hired Pantera Events, they definitely hit that spot on! By the wedding day, many of the feedback we got was how great the music was & how it had everyone itching to dance during the cocktail and dinner playlist. The set up, their lights with the music- beautiful. Even my husband & I were vibing and dancing in our bridal suite while waiting for cocktail hour to pass. Even my parents we did not expect to be on the dance floor at all and they were one of the first ones on the floor- that truly made my heart melt, so thank you guys!! Pantera Events made our night VERY memorable and one we can’t stop talking about. I would LOVE to book you guys again and recommend for everyone.

    Amazing DJ!

    Chris was the DJ the night of the wedding where me and my husband first met. Which is why is was that much more special that he was the DJ at our wedding 7 years later. There was not a dull moment in the night thanks to him. His communication was excellent and he is very organized. I would definitely hire him in the future!

    Best dj ever

    Chris and his team were absolutely amazing. We had a great mix of songs. The dance floor was not once empty. They were easy to work with, even when we had last minute changes. They were extremely accommodating, and never once made us feel like we were a bother.

    Bangers all night!

    Honestly, this was the best DJ we could have asked for! Never did we hear a song we didn’t like. He was able to incorporate my husband’s American culture and also my Mexican culture. The dance floor was packed the whole night and we had a blast. He was also prepared with the special requests we had for our surprise dance. Overall super professional and he set up the vibe for our special night to be unforgettable!
