Bruce Barrios Productions

Agree with everyone! Both my boyfriend and I have been to separate occasions in which we experienced the awesome work of this DJ! Honestly, the crowds will stay on the dance floor for the entire night. Even for a traditional Mexican wedding, he cleverly combined music that the older crowd and younger crowd would appreciate and yes, plays tons of current latest hits. If I ever get married, I am booking this man!

We were beyond fortunate to have Jason Michael Henson from Bruce Barrios Productions DJ our wedding last weekend. We met with him twice before the wedding and he was extremely helpful from the very first phone call to the last song on the dance floor! I had a few timing requests regarding music during the ceremony and he executed them perfectly. He was able to give me exactly what I had been dreaming of for my ceremony.
Throughout the reception Jason continued to knock it out of the park. He kept the timeline moving forward and kept people engaged and upbeat. We had requested to play classic jazz during dinner to honor my husband’s grandfather and it was a touching tribute that Jason was able to provide. So many people kept commenting throughout the night «Who is this DJ?! He is amazing!» I gave a very loose guideline of the type of music I was looking for and Jason seemed to know EXACTLY what to play all night! He even lead our drunken guests through the cupid shuffle when we were all so lost haha!
Honestly, having Jason DJ our wedding was one of the best decisions that we made throughout the whole wedding process. We are incredibly thankful to him. Beyond being an absolute professional who went above and beyond at our wedding, he is such a kind person and we are so fortunate to have met him. Thank you so much Jason, you’re the absolute best!!!

Used in 2011 for wedding. AWESOME AWESOME Job! He met with use twice before the wedding to discuss music and to make sure we were on the same page. Work with the wedding planner like they had worked together for years! Would absolutely use again!

There are DJs and then there is Bruce Barrios. If you want a true professional to take care of your party Bruce is it.
Not all DJs are created equal and not all DJs can get the party going like Bruce does. He has that special eye that reads the people and he can then determine what kind of music will get them going. He will ask the guests what kind of music they would like to listen to and from the choices he gets he determines the path to follow to get the guests on the dance floor.
I have had the fortune to see him in action in several events and I still have to see one where he does not get the people dancing. He is also a great MC, he works closely with the venue staff as well as the host of the party to make sure the timelines are kept as planned. If there is a problem and the times are running behind schedule for whatever reason then he will make sure that everything goes smoothly with the party.
I will recommend Bruce Barrios in a heart beat. Your guests will remember the good time they had at your event

Great DJ! He did some DJ work at my old job and ALWAYS got the crowd going. He even got all the seniors up dancing and moving around. I highly recommend him. I really wanted him to do my wedding but was booked. Either way, highly recommend Bruce!

My wife and I hired Bruce to be our DJ when we got married 4 years ago and to this day we still have friends tell us how great he was. Bruce not only provided an absolutely killer party but he also advised us on the best plan of attack to ensure that our wedding had not weird time lags with too many speeches, gaps of silence, etc… He kept the energy high, and our guests engaged. The night just flew by but in the best way possible. Your wedding is such a huge event and the DJ really is the most important element in my opinion, and I could not have been happier with the decision my wife and I made to go with Bruce. He is the best.

Bruce is hands down the best DJ in southern CA — both events he has done for us have been SPECTACULAR!!!
Without Bruce — our wedding would have been really boring. He is fun, keeps the party going and is an AMAZING and genuine guy. I was fortunate enough to have Bruce do both my Bat Mitzvah 13 years ago AND my wedding — he really brought the party TO the party. Great taste in music, great games and overall flow. After everything was finished he surprised us with CD’s of the entire evening song list, cocktail hour — dancing, everything. If you are planning any sort of event or wedding in the near future, PLEASE give Bruce a call!!!

We were told about Bruce Barrios by many wedding sites so we tried booking him… he was already taken, one year ahead. He referred us to his co-​worker, Keith WHO WAS AMAZING!!! We loved Keith. He was great to work with and played everything we wanted. Cannot say enough great things about Keith!

Bruce! You are amazing!!!
Our wedding was so great largely because of Bruce. His recommendations were right on and he really created a great atmosphere at the wedding. All of our guests loved him too.
Thank you for being such a big part of making all of our dreams come true.

Awesome in every way
The best decision my wife and I made for our wedding was booking Bruce — he was absolutely fantastic. I’ve been to enough weddings where you can easily see how a bad DJ can really ruin the event. Bruce brings the right type of talent and professionalism that makes any event better.
He is extremely professional and also just a genuinely nice guy to work with– we had a great time planning the music for our event. We first discovered him at a wedding we went to and knew we wanted him for ours. Now after our wedding, we have friends that booked him for theirs. The venues also seem to really like working with him so he clearly is doing something right.
I don’t know when I’ll need a DJ next, but I can guarantee you I won’t hesitate to call Bruce to our next party.

When it came to picking a DJ for my recent wedding, I was absolutely confused who to go with. I interviewed a few DJ’s that we found on Google and the Knot, everything from high dollar to penny pincher. When my now husband and I interviewed Bruce, there was absolutely no question in our minds that we were going to use Bruce as our DJ/​Master of Ceremonies. It was out of our price range, but Bruce worked with us so we could go ahead and book him. It was the best decision we made and the best money we spent. It was also great that Bruce had a working relationship with each of my vendors and they all worked great together.
From the very first time that we met Bruce, there was a connection. It’s all the little things that make a difference. He went aournd to each table asking for requests, introducing himself and getting a read on the crowd. But yet, he still kept it about us and played the music that WE wanted to hear as well. He was great at our wedding– truly making it a memorable party! When my old high school friends requested «It’s A Sunshine Day» from the Brady Bunch– HE HAD IT!!! When we received CD copies of the «soundtrack» from our wedding, I cried. What a special gift.
No matter what your wedding type/​style, Bruce is your man. He can do it. He will do it and make it a day to remember.

If you can book Bruce, DO IT!!!
Bruce is the man! He made our wedding the best party that many people had ever been to!
Don’t hesitate, book him now because I guarantee he will be gone if you wait! We got lucky and caught him on night that he had a cancellation… 3 months before our wedding!
Thanks again Bruce!

A DJ at a classy country club wedding? YES! If it’s Bruce Barrios! I was doubtful but OMG Bruce was great!!!
I knew from the response of the wedding planners when they heard his name that we had no worries and I was right. Bruce handled everything so well… no worries at all. Our «kids» had quite an interesting selection of music and I put in a few of our «old folks» favorites which were fun for us.
The price seemed a bit steep but Bruce is worth every penny!!!
Oh and the song he dedicated to one of the guests — hysterical! He was definitely paying attention to the party and not just playing from a list.
Our bride and groom received all of the music on CD’s at the end of the wedding which was so nice. Now they have those songs to play and remember their very special day…
THANKS BRUCE for the wonderful job you did! I’m sure glad we booked you as early as we did because I know someone else wanted you that same day. PHEW!

We hired DJ Bruce Barrios for our wedding at Spanish Hills Country Club and he was very professional, met with us prior to the wedding to discuss our interests, our musical tastes, special music we wanted and to buy us coffee. He was spot on cue with his timing and his knowledge of music was very broad spanning everything from Hip Hop, Punk and Alternative to Classical.
We were extremely pleased with our choice of Bruce for our DJ and always recommend him highly to our friends. Bruce played music prior to the ceremony that we had selected along with the actual ceremony music, after ceremony cocktail hour music and then for the reception, «he turned that mother out!»
Highly recommend!!!

As the owner of a wedding location, I feel confident recommending Bruce Barrios for anyone’s wedding. No matter the personality, or music preference, I get rave reviews about his style and business practice. If he has your date available, just book him. You can’t go wrong!

When it came time to book my DJ, I had my heart set on a work colleague that DJ’s on the side. I knew from his personality that he would be great, and a fun addition to our wedding reception.
Unfortunately, my colleague’s side job should have been his main job, because he was in such high demand that to have him DJ our wedding far exceeded our budget.
My then future mother-​in-​law had given me a business card for Bruce Barrios, had said that he was a DJ at my fiancé’s cousin’s wedding, and had said she thought he was great. As my first choice was well beyond my reach, I gave Bruce Barrios a try.
From the first phone call it was a done deal. Bruce is so friendly, so bubbly, and so handsomely voiced. He is professional and experienced, and is my only #1 choice for a DJ anywhere, anytime.
Bruce met with my fiancé and I early on, bought us drinks, and even brainstormed ideas for our big day that weren’t clear to us yet. He was more than willing to work with our budget, and we actually ended up adding extra hours to our booking at the insistence of my mother-​in-​law. He’s so popular that when we booked over a year in advance, his calendar was already brimming with wedding dates.
Anyone who is lucky enough to have Bruce DJ for them is is in for a treat, and they will be able to rest assured that their music and MC will be perfection

My friend recently got married and she went with Bruce Barrio as her DJ for the occasion. Take it from me, Unilocalers… I have been to quite a few weddings in my day and dare I say that Bruce is the best out there. No joke.
Let me breakdown the booty shaking moments from beginning to end since that was THE THING that was going on that night:
1. Dinner was buffet style and rather than call up tables in chronological order (predictable *yawn*), Bruce had a game where the first table to shout out the correct song name would get to hit the buffet next. He also threw in twists that sent grown women in the highest heels RUNNING to his DJ booth to pony up the evidence and be the big hero at their table. It is GENIUS!
2. He was smart in walking around to each table during dinner and asking for song requests. That way he could keep up his mojo AND also get a feel for the crowd’s taste in music so he could throw in good tunes at all times.
3. He has the latest and greatest in music choices that will get everyone on the dance floor, but he also has the obscure songs on hand too. The bride and groom selected «Only You» by Yaz for their cake cutting song, if that is any indication in the variety he has.
4. Bruce himself has an amazing amount of energy and that helped encourage the crowd to flock to the dance floor. There was never a quiet moment on the floor. At all times, there was at least one person or couple out there. I don’t think I have ever seen that at a wedding before.
The word on the street is that Bruce is a popular guy so if you are a bride, book him right away into the wedding planning process. And though he is in Ventura, he will travel (this wedding was on the Queen Mary in Long Beach).
Check him out. Meet with him. You will be sold, I promise!
