Becks Entertainment and DJ Services

EXCEEDED EVERY EXPECTATION is the only way I can describe the services provided by Jerry Beck of Becks Entertainment and DJ Service! Jerry provided DJ/​MC/​sound services for my son and daughter-in-law’s wedding and did a phenomenal job. From the first time I spoke with Jerry by phone, it was very clear to me that not only was I speaking to a knowledgeable professional (whose background and accomplishments speak volumes for itself), but also to a genuinely nice and caring individual who is committed to exceeding the expectations of his clients. Jerry uses technology to the benefit of his clients, from the online customized playlist tool to his use of a modern digital system, etc. In addition, he possesses a unique ability to read an audience. If the selected music is not working, you can rest assured he will know it and will effortlessly transition on to another song that does in order to keep your audience pumped up! Jerry’s arsenal of music is quite expansive and will appeal to audiences of all types. My son and daughter-in-law’s Persian/​American wedding was no exception. Jerry was able to provide music that appealed to the entire mixture of cultures amongst the couple’s guests, who took note of it and are still talking about what a fantastic job the DJ did at the wedding and how balanced the music was. Music can certainly make or break a wedding, so I highly recommend you get the best and in San Diego, that would be Jerry Beck of Becks Entertainment and DJ Service. I recommend Jerry highly, and without reservation to anyone looking for a DJ for their wedding or other special event — you will NOT be disappointed. With Jerry you will be getting a highly experienced «professional» who also happens to be the current President of the San Diego DJ Association! What more could you hope for?

A friend recommended Jerry when we were looking for a DJ for our wedding. Jerry was GREAT to work with! He understood what we were looking for our reception and went above and beyond to make the best music selection for our party! Our wedding guests loved the songs Jerry played during the cocktail hour, dinner, and dance party! I’d definitely recommend Jerry for ANY event you need a DJ!

When it comes to planning your wedding, I think the first thing anyone thinks about is the music… will a phenomenal time be had by all the guest… and will it be MEMORABLE! My wife and I decided we wanted to hire the best DJ and Entertainment service possible. We found Beck’s Entertainment and DJ services through wedding wire. To be quite frank, we were very lucky to secure the services of Beck’s Entertainment considering their extensive and impressive client list.
Jerry Beck was awesome and is sort of a music mentalist with large crowds! To explain, he definitely reads the guests at your event and plays music that will keep everyone dancing and having a great time. No matter the age, background or where they travel from. Our wedding was the «bomb» large in part because of the services provided by Jerry Beck and Beck’s Entertainment. It may seem cliché call him the consummate professional but that is exactly what he is. This becomes obvious from the time you plan your wedding until the end of the event. All my bride and I can say is «Thank You» to Beck’s Entertainment for exceeding our expectations and making our event even more than we envisioned!

Becks did an amazing job being the DJ at our wedding! He was able to get myself and the officiant mic’d up wonderfully so that no one could see the microphones and could hear all of us perfectly even though it was outdoors and a little windy. For our cocktail hour we had given him a playlist to follow that he followed wonderfully and even continued it with the same type of feeling when the cocktail hour went a little long. He helped us customize our first song and a few little surprises throughout the night. Once the reception started he kept the party going and played a great mix of songs for everyone! I would definitely recommend him to anyone getting married in the San Diego area!

I first heard of Jerry and Beck’s Entertainment from a co-​worker who had Jerry as her DJ at her wedding about five years ago. She just raved about him and right then I knew I had to book him ASAP. I called him that day and booked him. Thank goodness too because he was already booking up for the time of my wedding which was a year out! Everyone wants Jerry to DJ their wedding! After booking Jerry, I hired our wedding planner and she said the same thing right away — that we had to book Jerry. Good thing because we already had booked him!
Jerry did the following services for us, all of which turned out PERFECT: Unlimited hours, ceremony set-​up, cocktail hour set-​up, uplights, lit monogram, slideshow and cake lighting. I was actually having issues with converting my slideshow to be compatible for Jerry to play so he totally went out of his way and took care of the whole thing which was such a relief because you can imagine how much was going on for the wedding during that time. Jerry didn’t just perform the services we had contracted with him, he went above and beyond what we were expecting and his services were priceless!
Jerry played the perfect music and catered to all age groups while still making it fun and lively. My Dad even said that Jerry’s music was awesome and he is not easy to please in the music realm. Not only was Jerry’s music selection perfect, but he was professional and followed the timeline to a «T.» He had people up dancing and out of their chairs before dinner was even over. Obviously it was a good time!
I highly recommend Jerry and Beck’s Entertainment and consider ourselves to lucky to have had him at our wedding.

Jerry Beck is the best. After just a few minutes of talking with him, my (then) fiancé and I came to the same realization — this guy knows his sh*t. We booked him for our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier. He kept the dance floor packed through the very last
song. Several of our guests actually referred to him as «the best wedding DJ» they had ever heard. Our guest list was split between an older crowd and 20-​somethings, but Jerry did a fantastic job of choosing songs that got EVERYONE dancing.
Jerry was also an amazing MC. He did a great job of keeping the program on schedule. Our wedding was a complete whirlwind (for us, anyway), but Jerry was able to give certain cues to move the evening along. (For example, «As the bride and groom make their way back to the table…») Really subtle, but super effective. Long story short — if you’re looking for a DJ, Beck’s Entertainment is the way to go.

Jerry did an excellent job at our wedding. Not only was he professional and knowledgeable in all genres, he was able to give superb input on timing and how to incorporate a special song I had planned to surprise my wife with. I had also done some special editing on a couple of songs that my wife wanted played at specific times during our ceremony, Jerry was able to pull it off with no mistakes and WITHOUT rehearsal! His personality and DJ wit kept everyone sweaty and dancing til the end. Thanks Jerry!

We hired Jerry for our wedding last month, and he did a great job! I am a huge music fan, and my wife and I said the music and the food were the 2 most important things about our reception. We took a lot of time in choosing the DJ and creating lists of what type of music we wanted to be played. Jerry was able to accommodate every single request we made, even creating instrumentals for us for the entrance music and an Indian prayer. I felt we were high maintenance, but Jerry never made us feel that way. During the reception, everyone was on the dance floor. People I never thought would be out there dancing had a wonderful time and danced the night away! I would definitely recommend Jerry for any needs you may have in the future!

We met Jerry through our wedding coordinator Gina Hundley with San Diego Weddings By Gina. Initially we had interviewed another DJ, but after talking with Jerry we knew he was the best fit us and we hired him that night. He worked with us and met several times before the wedding to pick up our slideshow and discuss music choices. He was even able to include Filipino songs that my family members wanted to play during the wedding and he was able to integrate those songs seamlessly throughout the night. Jerry has an amazing ability to sense the crowd and make selections that bring everyone to the dance floor. He worked with our venues AV department to ensure that our slideshow was played perfectly on cue without anyone noticing the setup or breakdown of additional equipment. The lighting he provided was simple and elegant and help set the ambience for the evening. Jerry was also our MC, he helped keep the flow and made sure we were on schedule. He was the ultimate professional, he was able to keep the crowd excited but he was never corny or cheesy. After our wedding we have only been receiving compliments. Family members and friends have said that they had a such blast and their feet hurt from dancing all night and we know our event was a success because of Jerry!

Jerry was the DJ at our wedding in October and we are still receiving calls from guests asking for his info. He took our music preferences and created an unforgettable night of fun. We extended our reception an extra hour and every guest stayed on the dance floor until after the last song was played! The dance floor wasn’t large enough — he had everyone up and dancing!
We had a close friend play the keyboard during the ceremony and Jerry easily accommodated him into his sound system. The night flowed so smoothly and he kept to our time line. We had the time of our lives and want to relive every second of that night.
Jerry is not only friendly, he is incredibly professional and easy to work with. It is obvious he has been doing this for a long time and really enjoys his work. I only hope that he is the DJ at every wedding we get invited to from now on.

My fiancé and I met Jerry at an open-​house event at the Darlington House, which was the primary reason why we chose him as he is familiar with the logistics and venue. For the ceremony, he cued our music choices as planned, and provided wireless microphones and efficient sound systems, which all helped to ensure that the ceremony ran smoothly. For the reception, Jerry was very comfortable with MC duties; played great music during the dinner service (we had provided him with some guidelines, but didn’t give him any specific choices); and he made our reception so much fun! For example, Jerry brought out nearly every guests at the wedding when he came down to the dance floor and taught the whole wedding a «special» dance named after our family name.
Overall, Jerry was very a professional, reliable, and awesome DJ. The power went out momentarily at the beginning of the reception, and Jerry handled the situation like a true professional working with the venue’s manager and our coordinator to ensure that the power came back on. The guests didn’t even notice that the power went out. He helped to make a part of our wedding experience enjoyable and stress-​free. My fiancé and I would highly recommend him as your wedding DJ!

Jerry Beck did a great job as the DJ at our wedding. He was professional and played a wonderful selection of music that kept our guest dancing all night long. We received several compliments on our DJ and I would recommend him to any of my friends. I think that having the right DJ can really make or break the wedding reception because music is such a critical aspect during the reception. Jerry was recommended to me by both my wedding coordinator and a friend of mine that is a wedding coordinator and he lived up to our expectations.

Jerry Beck handled our wedding on April 10, 2010 at Orfila Winery and he was awesome! He had our 100+ guests, of all ages, dancing for 4 hours straight — in the middle of the day! Jerry handled the ceremony music too which was perfect, easier on us logistically and on our budget. He listened to our music interests, helped us pick key songs, and did the timeline for our day. The day of the wedding everything was perfect. He is a true professional and very talented DJ.

Jerry is THE BEST!!!
Getting the best DJ was VERY important for us for our wedding, and the best is just what we got!!!
The dance floor was jam packed all night… and it was AWESOME!!! We have heard nothing but compliments about the entertainment since our wedding, and we owe it all to Jerry! It was the funnest night of my life!
THANKS JERRY!!! Your the man!!!
