URE Events was recommended to us by our catering hall as a DJ option for our Oct 2020 wedding which got pushed to Sept 2021 after the pandemic. After meeting with Leo and Elena back in 2019 we felt we did not need to meet any other companies because we were sold! Leo's presentation was AMAZING and blew me and my husband's mind! They were so welcoming and friendly that by the end of our meeting it felt we had been spending time with long time friends. Leo and his crew are absolute masters. My husband and I have a blended marriage, he is German/Ukrainian and I am Puerto Rican. There is a generational gap between our parents and a wide range of music taste coming from both sides. On the day of our wedding Leo was FLAWLESS with the music choices. The only time the dance floor was empty was when food was being served. Besides the music we submitted that we knew we wanted Leo read the crowd and saw the diversity of guests at our wedding and instantly starting adapting to the crowd to keep our dance floor as packed as possible at all times. We had our traditional Salsa for my family and parents friends, we had hard rock for my husbands family and their guests, he even played a German polka for my husbands grandfather and in between all these great choices was the music that catered to me, my husband and our friends. Leo's stage presence with the guests was so great and he himself kept the guests entertained when me and my husband were called away to do bride/groom things. Elena, was so great at helping us navigate our wedding DJ portal that they provided us to submit our music choices, a "Do Not Play List" and they worked with us when it came time to setting up the music choices for the first dances, entrance walks and bouquet/garter toss. Side note, if you want something a little less traditional for your bouquet/garter toss, ask Leo and Elena for suggestions. We went with their suggestion and it was one of the best parts of the night ; If I were to redo my wedding day all over again I wouldn't hesitate to contact Leo and URE Events or recommend them to anyone who is looking to have the ultimate catered DJ experience! Karl and I love you guys and we will never forget how special you made our wedding day and how accommodating and understanding you were once the pandemic hit and everything shifted.

We booked URE in NYC before Covid and ended up having our wedding postponed multiple times. We ended up moving our wedding to California and URE was accommodating and worked with us throughout the process. We were so happy to have Leo and his team to DJ at our wedding reception. Leo is very organized and kept everything moving according to our timeline. We received great feedback from our guests and the music was exactly how we envisioned. URE has a great online system to plan the day and make playlists of must have songs. Leo traveled across the country for us and made sure the equipment and quality was of the highest standard. We definitely recommend working with URE since they have a long track record of successful weddings and Leo will work tirelessly to make sure your event goes according to your vision.
Leo and Elena are an Amazing Team! We hired them in 2019 prior to Covid. Leo's presentation was flawless, not to mention his hospitality was both very warm and professional. Given the challenges we were faced with, due to Covid, both Elena and Leo were very patient, empathetic and understanding. Once the Big day finally came for our daughter, Leo and his staff were nothing less than expected. Everyone raved about his music selection and showmanship. I highly recommend considering URE Events for your wedding or any special occassion.
Man where to start. We met Leo a week before COVID hit and had a 3 hour meeting with him and we knew after that meeting he was the ONE. His energy he presented we knew our event was gonna be an EPIC time. Then when COVID hit Leo took the time to keep in touch with us not only on a business aspect but as friends and always checking in on me, my wife and the family making sure we were good during this tough time. So the relationship we built grew more and more till the time of the event and we felt his energy grew more for us to not only perform as if we are just clients but to perform to the FULLEST AS FAMILY!!! Leo was so organized and on point from the start to finish. His energy was AMAZING and everyone at the wedding were on there feet on the dance floor having the time of there lives. We will never forget that day and Leo and his crew were a very big part in making our EPIC WEDDING DAY a night to never forget.
URE Events did our wedding 5 yrs ago and til this day when I run into people they are still talking about our wedding and how much fun they had. Leo not only was professional and reliable throughout the whole process but delivered an amazing experience well beyond our expectations. Through it we developed a friendship and still talk til this day. He has become apart of our family and ready to have him for future baby showers and renewal of vows. If you want a 5 star grade A experience and a event that you will never forget book URE Events. I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Your DJ search is over and you should book URE events immediately and without hesitation. The owner of the company and main DJ, Leo, made the whole process special and personal for us from the day we hired URE through end of the event. As per the music, as he demonstrated at his studio when we first met, Leo and his team are highly skilled technical DJs who know how to mix any genre to carry a crowd. In the months leading up to the event, Leo helped customize the entire musical experience for us to create a vibe for the evening in our own taste for our particular guests. The company provides an online portal where you can add a certain amount of music, which he will work off to plan the perfect set for your night. Even if you don’t want to choose your own songs, Leo will know how to plan the music for your taste and crowd to keep your guests dancing. We met with him on several occasions to discuss the wedding set, sample songs, and choose the music for each part of the night. Leo and his assistant executed the evening exactly as planned with absolutely flawless mixing, song selection and flow which kept the dance floor packed. Not once did we have to request a song on our list, he played everything we wanted and supplemented it perfectly with his own selections. Leo is also a great MC who knows how to work a room with enthusiasm. Most of all though, Leo’s passion for his job is remarkable and he is an example for other vendors on how to treat a client. We can honestly say that we felt like he was fully invested in making our wedding a special experience from the start with his positive energy and commitment to detail and he genuinely cares about his clients. Beyond the personalized experience, Leo is also a complete professional. You can trust URE will come through on everything promised. They are extremely organized down to every detail, stick to schedules and phone calls, and follow up consistently before the event, while coming fully prepared the day of. To sum it up, with Leo and URE you not only get a top tier professional DJ who will keep everyone dancing but a friend who you know won’t let you down. Worth every penny.
If I could give Leo a million stars I would. Hands down he was THE BEST vendor we dealt with throughout this entire process. He was communicative, understanding, a team player, professional - really just everything we could have ever wanted. Prior to meeting Leo we were in contract with another vendor that screwed us over and Leo was literally our shining light. We booked the platinum package and it was well worth it. Our guests raved about the live pictures on the tv screens, the photobooth, and his ability to cater to our Hispanic, Afro Latino, African-American, Trinidadian heritages to give us the BEST party experience. It is now standard that we book Leo for EVERY other life event. It is mandatory now, especially since we're family now, because that's what happens after working with Leo - you become family! Thank you again for such an amazing night. We love you!!!
We were lucky enough to have Leo as the photographer for my daughter's sweet 16 and we were more than pleased with how great he interacted with everyone he was running all over making sure he captured every moment that was special to us. He worked one on one with my daughter and he made sure that she was comfortable and happy, he addressed any concerns she had about how it would look. We all felt extremely comfortable and happy with him and how he interacted with everyone. Leo has a beautiful joyful spirit which makes him great at what he does. Highly recommend him and would definitely do business with him again. Thanks Leo/URE for going the extra mile.
