DJ Ricardo Patiño

Music shapes the atmosphere of a wedding, from the anticipation before the ceremony to the final song of the evening. For DJ Ricardo Patiño, creating that soundtrack means bringing each couple’s personality into the celebration while responding to the energy of their guests.

With more than 38 years of DJ experience, Ricardo combines a nightclub background with a focus on destination weddings. His musical style crosses genres, allowing him to blend favorites and contemporary selections into a celebration that feels personal. As a bilingual DJ and master of ceremonies, he helps guide the occasion and connect with guests from different backgrounds.

Based around celebrations in Los Cabos and Puerto Vallarta, his services extend to Todos Santos, La Paz, Punta Mita, Sayulita, and other destinations. He collaborates with wedding planners and coordinators to align musical moments with the event’s schedule, from toasts and special dances to the reception’s pace.

For couples who love the warmth of live performance, Ricardo offers access to violinists, guitarists, saxophonists, and ensembles. These musicians can accompany a ceremony or cocktail hour, or perform alongside the DJ during the reception, adding another dimension to the entertainment.

His offerings also include professional audio, lighting, staging, and equipment rentals, with technical support available for couples bringing an outside DJ or band. Couples work directly with Ricardo on bookings and can arrange a video consultation to discuss their plans. The result is an approach that brings music, hosting, and production together around the celebration they envision sharing with loved ones.
