2025 is off to an incredible start with not one, but TWO unforgettable weddings this weekend! 🎉

First up, Liz & Andrew tied the knot at the iconic Old Post Office with a packed house of 260 guests, keeping the dancefloor alive with a blend of Latin hits and Top 40 bangers! 💃🕺

Next, it was Narmin & Saad’s magical day—this one hit different. The bride, a former student of mine, still calls me Mr. Palencia (cue the feels 🥹). Seeing her start this new chapter was bittersweet, but the energy on the dancefloor was pure joy. 🌟

Here’s to love, laughter, and unforgettable vibes in 2025! 🥂

🎶🔥 The Top 25 of 2025 is here—and we’ve got TWO fire mixes to keep the vibes going into the new year!

💃 Latin Edition: Cumbia, reggaeton, mambo, dembow, and corridos to keep you moving.

🎤 Pop Edition: Hip hop, pop, and EDM hits that brought the heat all year long.

This year was HUGE for the disco revival, with artists like Sabrina Carpenter and Chappell Roan bringing back the groove.

It was also a hot year for Karol G, reggaeton, and the rise of regional Mexican music—proving Latin beats dominated 2024!🔥

DJ Persist is all about keeping it fresh. These mixes showcase not only the top songs of the year but also my mixing ability and deep knowledge of current music trends. Perfect for clients looking to bring the ultimate vibes to their events! 🎧

🎶✨ Joe & Kim’s wedding was a masterpiece from start to finish, and DJ Persist brought the vibes every step of the way!

💒 We kicked off the celebration with full ceremony service, featuring pre-ceremony music to set the tone and a seamless setup that included a satellite speaker for the cocktail hour playlist in another room.

💃 Then it was onto the main event! Our fully lit facades (not just basic uplights—we’re talking next-level glow) set the stage for a packed dancefloor all night long. From 60s-70s classics to early 2000s hip-hop bangers, the energy never stopped!
