    Best Wedding Decision - Ace Reider

    Ace was truly one of the highlights of our wedding day. He brought such incredible energy to the night and was absolutely the life of the party! I can’t even tell you how many people came up to us after the wedding to say that Ace was the best DJ they had ever seen or that they were now DJ over band. And honestly, we couldn’t agree more. He didn’t just play music… he felt the crowd. He understood what people were looking for, what they needed in the moment, and somehow always seemed to know exactly what song to play next. The dance floor was almost never empty, and our guests had an absolute blast! Ace also helped us create our first dance song, which was a mashup of “Spin You Around” by Morgan Wallen and “Right Round” by Flo Rida. It was such a unique and personal touch, and it was a HUGE hit. We’ll never forget that moment. Beyond being incredibly talented, Ace was professional, easy to work with, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our day special. He brought such great energy and played a huge part in creating the atmosphere and memories we’ll cherish forever. We are so grateful we chose Ace for our wedding. He truly went above and beyond and made our special day that much more memorable. If you want a DJ who knows how to read a room, keep the energy going, and get everyone on the dance floor… you need Ace!

    Helped make our wedding unforgettable.

His communication throughout the planning process was prompt, friendly, and concise, which made working with them a breeze. His laid back attitude relieved us of any anxiety and on the day of, Ace found the perfect balance and tone for the music, deftly segueing between romantic songs and lively dance tunes that got everyone on the dance floor. He has a great personality and clearly knows how to read a crowd and keep them entertained. Ace took the time to understand what we wanted and made several wonderful suggestions that truly made our wedding unforgettable. Ace was alway professional, charged an incredibly fair rate and is someone I would whole-heartedly recommend. He'll be the first person I'll contact when we have our next event. We are so grateful to Ace Reider Live Events for helping make our wedding an absolute blast!

    We love Ace!

    Working with DJ Ace is always a highlight! As a fellow vendor, I’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with him on multiple weddings, and he consistently brings the perfect energy, professionalism, and great vibes to every event. He’s easy to work with, adaptable, and truly knows how to read a crowd — which is why I even asked him to DJ my own wedding! That says it all. Highly recommend him to any couple or planner looking for someone they can fully trust to keep the party going!

    Truly best DJ for many reasons

    My husband and I interviewed/talked with about 12 DJs before we came across Ace and about a minute into our conversation we knew he matched exactly what we were looking for. It was important to me to not only have a talented DJ for our wedding but also one who was classy, matched the vibe, and kept everyone engaged and partying! Ace gave amazing suggestions for song choices, he helped us with timing our first dance, he read the room incredibly well, and also showed up very well dressed and clean cut. This was very important to us!!! I am not exaggerating when I say probably 30 different people from our wedding made a point to tell us we had the best wedding DJ ever. They said he absolutely made the night and we are all hoping we get to have him DJ another event of ours soon. He’s the best of the best and we are really thankful he was available for our day. It couldn’t have been better! Thanks Ace :)


Yes! While I don’t specialize in lighting, I can provide dancefloor FX Lighting and Up Lighting or any other lighting needs through my partner brands.
I am currently based in West Los Angeles but often travel as far as San Diego or Santa Ynez
I produce House music but I often perform at over 80 events per year. Many of which are cultural weddings (Armenian, Persian, Arabic, Jewish, South Asian etc) and lots of typical California and east coast weddings as well. I also play corporate and club events that range from daytime picnics to full blown raves.
I love to MC to start the party and get everyone excited ! That said, I try to limit the mic work as much as possible to allow the music to speak where words can’t! I hate feeling forced to do things as a guest or being strung along by some corny MC. The art is in allowing things to flow naturally with great music curation and thoughtfully timed announcements.
