AMS Entertainment - Pismo Beach

Sean from AMS did a fabulous job! He kept the party going all night, and definitely helped keep everything on schedule :) The lighting was awesome, considering our dance floor was outside, and it very much seemed like a party and very fun! I would definitely recommend AMS for any couple going the DJ route!

Cannot say enough good things about Jeremy with AMS! He was professional, courteous, and worked amazingly with us and our coordinator. He definitely struck me as someone who goes above and beyond to make sure that weddings go smoothly. We definitely recommend this company!

First and foremost I would like to thank AMS for making our day an absolutely unforgettable experience. Their expertise and professionalism did not go unnoticed not only by my husband and myself, but by many of our guests as well. We had the pleasure of meeting the team in there welcoming new office in Arroyo Grande. Sean and his crew went above and beyond to not only make us feel comfortable and confident about our big day, but also assisted us in capturing our own personal style. We had the honor of working with Jeremy for the main event and I just can't express enough how much we LOVE him. He is truly meant to be a DJ in every sense of the word. He wore several hats at our wedding, including: coordinator, DJ, MC, comedian, and many, many more; all of which he handled professionally and seemingly effortlessly. We HIGHLY recommend AMS and of course Jeremy, not only for a wedding, but for any event you want to rock! These guys are amazing and my husband and I hope to have the opportunity to work with them again in the future. Thanks AMS..we couldn't and wouldn't have done it without you!

Sean Dasmunn from AMS our DJ and we highly recommend him! He was so easy to work with throughout the entire process. He saved the day when our ceremony guitar player got sick, our beach wedding was perfectly audible and clear thanks to him, and he was so professional and easy to work with. My husband and I had a very unique reception planned and Sean totally made each of our ideas come to life. He was super flexible, went with our style and helped my husband surprise me by singing to me too! Our guests are still raving about the music that was played and how much fun the reception was. He kept our dance floor packed the entire night.

Thanks so much, Sean, for making our reception such a great party!

Sean was a DJ for our wedding and we were really happy with the way our reception turned out. Sean is experienced as a DJ and knew just the right time for certain events during the reception. We really were thankful for AMS's music tool online, which was helpful in organizing our playlist. AMS also booked a guitarist for our ceremony and cocktail hour and we were really pleased with the musician as well. We would recommend AMS for your events!

If you are looking for an outstanding, professional DJ service who will match your taste for your day, then AMS is for you. Our DJ, Mike, listened carefully to my husband's eclectic taste in music and was able to use that and turn the playlist into something everyone could enjoy. We had so many compliments on our DJ; everyone was very impressed. I would recommend AMS to anyone, they are fantastic!

Sean Dasmunn from AMS was awesome to work with! Sean came highly recommended from family friends who have been in the wedding business on the central coast for 30+ years.

Sean is very personable and he allows the couple to tell him how much to be involved. All the guests at our wedding RAVED about Sean. He had everyone on the dance floor ALL NIGHT! Guests ranging from 15 years old to 80 years old. My husband and I gave him ~40 songs to go off of, and he created the playlist during the night. He's had ~20 years of experience, so he is great at judging the crowd and thinking of the next song that would keep everyone dancing.

Sean was also great about helping us pick upbeat and fun songs for the bridal party's entrance and had the perfect amount of MC time - guests stopped and listened when he announced important wedding events (cake cutting, etc.) because he wasn't on the microphone the whole time like some other DJs.

All in all, GREAT service. Would highly recommend!

Perfect mix of DJing and leading the guests. Everyone was on the dancefloor all night! The uplights around the room were great too. We were very happy with AMS!

We had Sean from AMS as our DJ at our wedding and we would highly recommend him. Sean played all the songs we wanted from our online playlist. He really did a good job mixing up the newer songs with the oldies. He kept the dance floor packed all night and no one wanted to leave at the end of the night. Our guests were chanting "one more song" that's how good he is!

Did well overall. Website was hard to navigate. Was on the phone with them trying to figure things out a lot. Our DJ was very friendly- but there was a list of dedication songs that he never downloaded so he was scrambling at the last minute to find them and not all of them made it into the reception which was difficult for some of the guests which songs were dedicated to. The grand entrance song had a certain timing for when we walked out which was off quite a bit because of announcements that were too short regarding the wedding party. Otherwise, great DJs.

Wow, these guys were great! Sean was our DJ and he did an incredible job. Gave us exactly what we wanted for our wedding day. He kept things moving at the right pace, kept the crazy guests in check and made us smile and laugh and not worry about a thing on our wedding day. We didnt know the first thing about what music to have during the ceremony (we had an outdoor california casual wedding) but this wasnt a problem at all. Sean sat down with us went through the type of wedding we wanted and what probably would be good song selections for us. All of his suggestions were spot on! Saved us a lot of time and hassle. His song choices were wonderful. The last thing that I wanted as a bride was to have to make more decisions, and as soon as I let Sean know this, he was more than willing to take control and did a wonderful job. That being said, I know that if I had had a playlist of every single song and the order he would have been accommodating to that approach as well. However, we are paying them because they are professionals who have more experience and knowledge than we do and I am glad that I handed the reigns over to them, especially after hearing the horror stories about craigslist DJs from other friends. AMS is worth every penny, definitely recommend!

We had Jeremy with AMS for our Cayucos Creek Barn wedding in September 2011. Dancing is my absolute favorite thing in the world so I was very picky about what type of music I wanted and the mood we wanted to set. Jeremy was absolutely amazing! Given my love for dancing, we opened the floor early and had it open late...and there wasn't a second of down time. Jeremy took our suggested list and played off that to create such a great vibe. I honestly had more fun than I've ever had in my entire life! (Yes, it was my wedding and of course it’s going to be fun, but this was way beyond my expectations). Not to mention, most of our guests came up to us at some point in the night to tell us it was the best or one of the best weddings they've been to (and I know people are supposed to say that, but I really think they meant it)... Jeremy definitely had a lot to do with that. I couldn't give him a higher recommendation!

AMS Entertainment was a great choice for providing music for my ceremony and reception. I would personally recommend Anthony Salas for any event. He was helpful and professional in our pre-wedding meeting and phone calls, as well as during my wedding.

We met with Sean and he was great! Made us feel really at ease. Our DJ was Jeremy, he was amazing and totally understood our music taste. I would HIGHLY recommend them!

Traveling from out of the area, my wife and I were extremely nervous about choosing vendors. Music is a huge priority for us and the DJ can make or break the event. Sean was the consummate professional from the day we walked into his office. He worked with our style, priorities and spent time getting to know us so that he could help create the perfect event. We loved the high-tech website where we could listen to examples online and pick our favorites on the fly. Sean and AMS have connections to other add-ons such as lighting, furniture and music for the ceremony. He was able to pull some strings and get a baby grand piano for the reception. The day of the ceremony, Sean took the reigns of the schedule and was in constant communication with my wife and I, and flexed to cover some of the inevitable snafus. I couldn't recommend Sean and his team more. "Thanks for making our reception unforgettable, Sean!"

My wedding was a very tricky wedding to pull off. 1/3 of the crowd was mexican american(or visiting from Mexico) including immediate family of the groom. DJ John created the ideal musical mix during dinner and had the dance floor packed all night. (3 hours of open dancing) AMS was the perfect match for our wedding. Unlike other similar companies, they worked with our ideas instead of trying to change them. The huge faux-pas that I have to complain about was that DJ John mispronounced my name as we did the grand entrance (kind of a big deal since I was the bride!) However, you will not find a better qualified DJ with bilingual (Spanish) speaking capability plus both american and latin music knowledge on the central coast.

I have to say, that my experience with AMS entertainment was amazing! I had a very low budget wedding, the kind where I made everything by hand, minus the dress, but I would have if I were that talented ;) Needless to say, a wedding planner was not within budget. Between an amazing friend who volunteered her time to help and Jeremy, the most entertaining dj I had ever experienced, my wedding came together beautifully. Mind you, that "wedding planner" isn't written anywhere in the contract I signed with AMS but Jeremy went above and beyond his obligations as dj to make sure my day was as stress free as possible. The feedback I received from one of my guests was that she "wished the DJ would stop playing such great music" so that she could sit down for a minute! Jeremy was non stop entertainment, and kept the night events right on schedule, from the first dance to the cutting of the cake. Due to his experience from previous weddings, he even suggested certain traditions that I didn't think of... Such as the money dance! A must! He did so much more than just play music, he engaged the crowd and kept us all entertained for the whole night. I will definitely be doing business with AMS entertainment for future events and Jeremy Rathbone will always be my number 1 choice when it comes to a DJ!

Jeremy Rathbone at AMS is the best DJ EVER! It has been a month since my wedding and I still have people telling me that they had the best time! The dance floor was packed all night, and Jeremy really captured the vibe that we were going for. The ceremony music was perfect and the reception ran so smoothly. I didn't have a care in the world. Jeremy is prompt and professional. I felt confident that he would play music that would keep everyone rocking out and having a blast and he really did. We were able to choose songs that we wanted played and didn't want played, and could pick the type of music played at each event (cocktail hour, dinner, cake cutting, etc.). Sean was very friendly and professional when we were booking Jeremy. He answered all of our questions and made us feel so at ease. Our experience with AMS truly could not have been any better. I would recommend Jeremy in a heartbeat, and already have!

DJ Anthony is THE BOMB!!!!! He worked with us and I was a totally crazy person about the music! But he went with it :o) The music and DJing was freakn' amazing! All my friends kept saying how good the DJ. We kept sending emails with different requests and he burned us a CD with some music we had heard and liked at our meeting.

Sean the owner also is super easy to work with and contact. AMS is the way to go for entertainment.

Mike was amazing. He was professional, polite and so much fun. We really appreciated all his help. Thank you so much!!!!

Sean the owner is great. He was a great communicator, and he is willing to do what it takes to make his clients happy. This was a very pleasant experience. Our DJ Mike was very professional and experienced. He had a good personality and was willing to go the extra mile. Highly recommended

Sean was very easy to work with, and accommodated us with all the special things we wanted to do. Even during the reception when we wanted to change something, he did it for us without hesitation. I would recommend this DJ to anyone.

We had Sean Dasmann from AMS do our wedding. Overall, everything went well. People danced, he announced and he didn't say anything crazy (always a plus!).

The only down side to my experience was the new website. My wedding was timed perfectly with the roll out of their new interactive website. I think I was the beta test though. I kept running into issues and having to email Sean to find out what was going on. Let me tell you, it's frustrating to work on something for 1.5 hours, think you are saving, and discover it all wiped away the next time you log in. My guess is they have most of the bugs worked out by now though.

I'd be comfortable recommending Sean (and AMS) to anyone that asked.

Sean was great, Jeremy was really nice. I wish our wedding had been longer so we could have enjoyed the music longer!

during our pre-meeting, the dj Mike had some reservations about my song choices, but was very professional in telling me how something might go over with my guests, but leaving the choice to me. There were like two songs I had chosen that were played a little out of order for whatever reason during the reception, which was a bummer as the songs had specific significance, but the only one who would know was me. Plenty of my guests commented on how great he was. He was very professional, interracted appropriately with the guests, had a great skill in matching song choices in line with our tastes, and kept us engaged in the process if there were any hickups (like letting us know the food would be coming out late - our venue never told us! - and working with us to move around the toasts to fill in time.

AMS was great about playing the songs we wanted and helping coordinate our wedding and generally be helpful even when not playing music. I would recommend them to anyone for a wedding.

AMS definately helped make our wedding day memorable. They were professional and made every part of our day flow together so perfectly.
My husband and i definately have different taste in music and Sean, our DJ, were mixed everything together perfectly, making sure we were both happy.
He even went out of his way and downloaded a whole cd off itunes so i could get the one song i wanted to walk down the aisle to.

My husband and I got married on July 18th, and Sean was our DJ. He was so helpful before the wedding- always ready to answer any questions we had and provide music recommendations. He did an incredible job at the wedding- everyone said it was the best wedding music they had ever heard! He knew what songs to play to get the crowd on the dance floor, and they loved it! I would HIGHLY recommend Sean for any event- he was profesional and fun!!!

AMS was very helpful and great for my wedding! They were flexible and even helped me find/rent equipment for my musician during the ceremony. The DJ was flexible, took requests, and stuck to the type of music we wanted. There wasn't one thing played that we didn't like! Their online wedding planner is very helpful, and it created my whole timeline for the wedding. It was very easy to plan with them from afar (I don't live in the area the wedding was).

Anthony from AMS was absolutely fabulous. We have had countless guests comment on his professionalism, his great personality, and the way that he led the party in a way that felt exactly like us. We would recommend him to everone in need of a DJ!

AMS did our music for our ceremony and reception. Our DJ was Tony- he was perfect! He played all the music we wanted to hear and adhered to our "do not play" list. He knew exactly what music would get the group dancing and was able to read the crowd well. He was attentive and a lot of fun with no cheese factor what-so-ever! Highly recommended!

I had ALL of my friends tell me that Tony Parks from AMS in Santa Barbara was the BEST wedding DJ they've ever heard. Everyone was dancing, even Grandma! He conducted himself with utmost professionalism, stuck to my "do not play" list, and when my friends requested weird songs, handled it with ease. THANKS TONY!!!

One word: Amazing! I believe the DJ at your wedding can make or break the event. I believe Sean not only created the atmosphere we were hoping for, but he kept the night moving along perfectly... not easy an easy task with our families! It was his use of our song list, in conjunction with songs he selected that kept our dance floor full... until the very last song. Our guests were asking for more! We have heard from so many of our guests that our wedding was the best they had been to. I believe that had a lot to do with the work of all our vendors, especially Sean. My husband and I do not know song names or artists well. Sean was professional and helpful throughout the whole process. No matter how many times we contacted Sean with questions or changes he was quick to respond, patient and cooperative. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Sean and AMS for any events.

Words can't express how ECSTATIC I am that we booked AMS. I had guests come up to me at the wedding and say "DUDE, best DJ EVER!" No joke.
I've been to a ton of weddings, and one of my biggest pet peeves is DJs who are way to chatty on the mic, and then others who look/sound like a deer in the headlights. Sean is just hands down the perfect DJ, and his style while working the mic is the perfect balance.
One of my favorite things about Sean and AMS is that they were really cool to me. To be honest, I was a horrific Bridezilla, ESPECIALLY about the music. I wanted rock and punk and indie music and was really specific on what I wanted and didn't want. They did everything I asked and if they were at all stressed by my bridal bitchiness, it never once showed.
Great value, extremely flexible and offered great feedback and creative ideas. I'd give them 10 stars if I could!

AMS was great! I would highly recommend them! They were reliable, cooperative, and followed through with all the wishes of the bride and groom! They made the day delightful!

Sean and his staff are amazing!! From the minute we booked them as our DJ, it was first class service all the way. The consultation was a great experience. Everytime we spoke with anyone at AMS, they made us feel like we were the only client that mattered at that time. As a bride, that is a great feeling to have your vendors undivided attention. When it came to the wedding day, they were on time and very professional. They were very entergentic and enthusitaic during the entire evening. Becuase of that, our guest were on the dance floor the entire evening. I will forever reccommend AMS Entertainment for any event whether it's a wedding, party, or small intimiate function! You will never be disappointed when booking with AMS!

Sean was extremely responsive and very flexible with meeting times because I lived out of town and was only able to meet on certain days. The evening ran very smoothly. I would definately recommend him!

AMS did a great job. Very flexible and helpful. Helped provide direction and guide the evening.

This is a hard review to make, because up until the day of the wedding, I was convinced that my DJ was my best decision and I had no concerns about whether it would be correct or not. I had put music requests on the RSVP cards on my guests and put all of the requests on the DJ's website. I talked to my DJ in depth about the timeline and he was very professional, courteous, and accomodating. The ceremony music was done perfectly. However, I was somewhat disappointed at the reception. He did not seem to play many of the requested songs, to the dismay of my guests, who had thought out their requests and wanted them to be played. He also played chunks of music - big chunks of old and then big chunks recent - instead of mixing them together. Therefore, there were big periods where no one was on the dance floor and he didn't seem to be receptive to that. I kept having to go up to him and tell him to play more appropriate songs. Tough decision, though...

On time, organized, will work with you on what you want to play and don't want to play. The DJ helped keep the ceremony and reception functioning on time. I was nervous about a DJ but this one I would use again and again!

Michael Murray was my vendor and he was fantastic! I couldn't ask for a better DJ! He knew just want to play to keep everyone dancing all night!

We asked the DJ to work with our Officiant so that we could get the timing right on the song we walked out to. We wanted it to start playing at a certian point of our officiants final words. They had to time it just right. The DJ had no issues with this and was happy to do it. He was helpful with the timeline during the reception. He played the music we requested and made no mistakes during the party.

We love working with AMS entertainment. By far the most qualified group of DJ's on the central coast. Do yourself a favor and give them a call!

What can I say. John first and foremost was the perfect gentleman, he went beyond just spinning tunes. What ever someone needed help with he pitched in.
He got the crowd going and kept checking with me regarding tje time line. I would love to woork with Jon again, he made my day go smooth.......
Sean, thanks for all your help when speaking to brides and getting them so well informed.

I really enjoy working weddings with AMS Entertainment. They are always professional, prepared and play a great mix of music. They enhance any wedding and know what it takes to get the guests up and dancing.

I've had the pleasure of working with the guys at AMS several times. Whenever I see, hear, or read that they are the DJ's for one of my brides' weddings, there is always a little jump for joy in my heart. They are always so on top of letting me (as a photographer) know what is going on and when, which in turn makes for a smooth wedding. Not to mention, they are wicked fun to be around... and are true artists when it comes to making sure people have a good time. I would recommend them over and over again. They are just plain AWESOME!

I am always thrilled when I see Sean at a wedding. When I know he is handling the sound and music I know that all is well. His professionalism is outstanding, his advice is always spot on and he is charming. You really can relax and know you are in great hands with AMS.

AMS Entertainment is such a great company! The DJ's are great and so professional, they really know how to read a crowd at an event. Every wedding I have had with them has been fabulous! I highly recommend them for any bride or venue. Call now.....before they are booked!

Very professional!

What can I say about AMS Entertainment! I love them! They are great to work with and can really keep the guests dancing the night away. Great music isn't the only awesome thing about them, they are also wonderful MC's. I get so excited when I know I am going to work with them cause I know they are going to make the wedding go so smoothly. Great example of what wedding entertainment is all about!

AMS Entertainment is wonderful to work with. Sean comes in and helps make the day smooth and fun. They are professional and accommodating.

AMS DJs can produce a fun, rocking, memorable reception ....blindfolded and standing on one leg in an adjacent room. They make it look that easy! With AMS, you can be assured of high standards, professional training, a broad expertise in music, back up equipment and great personalities and attitudes. Just hire them! Colleen Rosentha, Colleen Rosenthal Photography

Sean, Mike and the entire AMS Entertainment team are wonderful! They are always professional, always well-dressed and always bring the PARTY!!! We here at Vina Robles use AMS for all of our concert bookings and refer them to anyone looking for outstanding entertainment!!

Sean and his crew at AMS are one of the premiere DJ/entertainment companies on the Central Coast. While they are professional and polite, they also know how to create the best party atmosphere.

Sean was one of the two DJ's at our wedding and did a great job. He has a very professional approach and we really appreciated his help with the entire night. .........DJ Bob & Shannon

I strongly recomend AMS Entertainment. They have been one of the best DJ companies on the central coast. I have yet to work with a DJ from AMS that I did not work well with. They have always been helpful on informing us when an event is going to take place at a reception. Sean and his crew are very professional in both appearance and making your event go well without a hitch.

I have worked with AMS Entertainment for over 14 years. Sean and his staff are always professional in their manner. The staff is knowledgeable in the different styles of music and can make your wedding and reception a hit.

AMS Entertainment has fabulous DJs! I can't count the number of times I have hired AMS and they are always professional, well dressed, on time, and know how to work a dance floor! AMS takes the time to get to know their clients and their taste in music. You won't have to worry about hearing a hated song or genre. With AMS as part of the team, I know the day is going to run smoothly and that the reception is going to rock!
~ Sarah Angelique, Wedding Planner ~

I have worked with AMS for over 6 years, and they are always on my list of preferred vendors. When I'm in the planning stages with a client, and the name AMS comes up, I'm always assured of a great event. They are always on time, (or early), always professional, and naturally know how to 'run' the event. Over the years, I've heard lots of music, and I don't really pay attention to it, but one wedding sticks out to me: I had been listening to the music, and realized that I couldn't stop dancing. My staff was laughing at me, "Jennifer, are you dancing????" I then commented to Sean what a great mix that I had just heard, and he told me that he had mixed the music himself! I highly recommend AMS for your wedding!
