Anniversary Party•Reviewed on September 18, 2013•From San Francisco, CA

OMG Rick goes over the top. I mean literally he can kick his leg over his head. He was soooo much fun and super professional. I can see why he is entertainer of the year. Thanks for making my party unforgettable.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on February 19, 2013•From San Francisco, CA

My birthday party for an 80 year old began with my theme of music throughout his years. I hired a pianist to play music from the 30s and 40s, then after dinner Elvis sang. I hired a Marilyn Monroe impersonator for the 60s to sing the iconic Happy Birthday. I had written to the White House to send Birthday Greetings and asked Elvis to present it to the birthday boy and thank him for his service to our country. The letter didn't come until 2 hours!!! before Elvis sang. He handed the birthday boy his letter and sang America and Danny Boy. There wasn't a dry eye in the place. Elvis was the best, most accommodating and talented person I could have asked for.

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 24, 2013•From Colusa, CA

Rick Torres exceeded my expectations on every level! Rick was truly a class act and was so well prepared for our surprise guests with names, autographed scarves and glasses. His voice, movements, costume and the way he worked the crowd was the best! I appreciate his continued contact and update on the event and he was cool with my making some changes even up to the day before our party! He was wonderful, his assistant was wonderful and of course the pink Cadillac was simply WOW! I will book Rick again ???

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 20, 2013•From Pacifica, CA

Rick is as good as Elivs' get! I have utilized Rick twice now & will be booking again as they're "asking" for him! This performance was a surprise for our club and Rick's performance was top notch! I scanned the crowd of 52 faces & there was so much happiness! I received a call the following day and I will end with the message because "this is what it's all about!" --"Member "X" has been going through a lot - selling her home & moving into assisted living, slowing down, depressed... While driving home she couldn't stop talking about Elvis, smiling, singing his songs and everyone in the car felt like she was visited by Santa!" Thanks again Rick!

Private Party•Reviewed on July 4, 2011•From Mountain View, CA

Elvis brought down the house. He was open to our needs, anxious to accommodate us and willing to help with last minute requests. Having him here was a pleasure, he will be invited back at the earliest opportunity. He made the effort to re-invent himself to please the particular theme of the event.(Hawaiian Elvis)He did it with great style! We thank him! The pink caddy & ukulele were a great touch! Thank you, Elvis We look forward to seeing you in the future, Amy & Staff

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 16, 2011•From Concord, CA

It takes a lot to render my husband speechless but when Rick/Elvis walked into his 60th birthday party my husband's jaw dropped wide open. Later, he told me that Rick looked & sounded exactly like Elvis did when he saw him in Las Vegas in 1972. He just couldn't believe that Elvis was singing in our back yard. The experience exceeded my expectations. Rick is very talented, very professional, and an absolute pleasure to work with. He incorporated some personal info into his act to make it special for my husband. Rick puts a lot of love, thought, and energy into his performance. Rick's website is nice but HE'S AMAZING IN PERSON! Thank you,Rick. Thank you very much!

Fundraiser•Reviewed on November 11, 2013•From Concord, CA

Rick Torres did a fantastic job at our event. He is very accommodating to see your needs are fulfilled. He makes lots of suggestions and he allowed us to raffle off a cruise in his pink caddy for a few of our guests as an added fundraiser for our event. He is as nice in person as he is on the phone. Very personable. I would recommend to anyone out there who is looking for the real deal impersonator to hire Rick. He will not let you down. Your guests will all be left with big smiles on your faces. You can't go wrong with Rick Torres as your entertainer. He lives up to his name "#1 Elvis Entertainer of the Year".

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on July 10, 2010•From San Jose, CA

Rick is the BEST-definitely added that "WOW" factor to 2 events: a surprise 50th bday for a teacher at a school fundraiser (Mar'10) & at my in-laws' 50th wedding anniversary (Jul'10). Loved how he renewed their wedding vows in Elvis-Vegas style. Everything on the website0 videos, audio clips, Elvis outfits, cool pink Cadillac, picture-taking w/guests was nothing short but first rate. His staff was awesome. We had a great time, his performances were awesome, and our guests thoroughly enjoyed him.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 17, 2012•From Fremont, CA

This is the 4th time we haved used Rick for a special event. Each time he has made it even more personal than before. His likeness and music truly honors the Great Elvis Presley. His style is so unique and breath taking. He takes the time to honor the person he is there for and yet he includes the whole audience. Even the younger children enjoy his performances. I am certain the next family event we have we will keep him in mind. Rick has a geniune heart and you can tell through his performance he truly loves what he does. That is hard to find in a person. I want to say a special 'Thank You' to Rick from my heart for making it so special. God Bless, Susan Napier

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on January 30, 2013•From San Jose, CA

Rick and Bobbi are Number 1. I have seen him at a few other events and loved him. I hired him to renew my brother (who just came home from Afghanistan) and sister in laws vows. Rick nailed it. He accommodated every single request and more. I let Rick come up with the songs and costume (normally you pick this)again he nailed it!! Rick gave us so much more than what we paid for, He is a true entertainer. His performance was fantastic. Everyone loved it, I was told by my guests how great of a time they had and what a show!! Everyone was pleased. He does not cut corners or time. He stayed and took pictures with every single guest that wanted pics. I will hire them again!

Nursing Home Event•Reviewed on July 5, 2013•From Daly City, CA

Hiring entertainment is not new to me however I have never worked with someone so personable, accommodating; a true Professional! It is obvious that he is passionate about his performance and strives to go beyond expectations by "bringing so many of my guest back in time!" Of my 500+ guest, Elvis was their era and so many claimed he was "Elvis!" I look forward to working with him again soon, with the many inquiries I received for his contact and and my recommendation to family/friends I hope he'll be available! Elvis: "We'll" remember you....

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 14, 2010•From Fremont, CA

My family can't stop talking about how AWESOME Rick's performance was and my sister tells me it's the best gift she ever got! There was so much excitement when Rick came in and surprised everyone. He has a fantastic voice and crazy Elvis moves - we were very impressed that he stayed in character the entire time. Just when we thought the show was over, we sent out for the pink cadillac cruise and had even MORE fun! Rick is a great sport, posing for zillions of pictures and giving hugs all around. Thank you, Rick, for an unforgettable performance!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on February 15, 2013•From Fresno, CA

He sure knows how to shake it. I Margaret, I was so happy on the best birthday show that Rick had for me on my (60th) , My family and I were so excited with the very best ELVIS Impersonator, he made everybody want to get up and dance with him. He had such a warm heart when he connected with me to set our date for the main event. Number one in my book, I can hardly wait for my next event to have Rick complete another wonderful show for us. He sure made me fell like being twenty-one again, thank you Rick.

Graduation Party•Reviewed on June 11, 2013•From Castroville, CA

Rick performed for my daughters graduation/18th birthday party and he was very professional and spontaneous. His performance was excellent. Everyone loved him from little kids, teenagers to adults. He was great and very accommodating to all requests. All my guests were very impressed wirh his performance. What made it even more special was his surprise arrival along with Marilyn Monroe as the guests had no idea he was performing. All they knew was that there was surprise entertainment. . Rick is very inviting, friendly and takes his performance serious. I definitely give him a 5 star review and highly recommend him.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on November 12, 2012•From Morro Bay, CA

In October we planned a 4 day wedding weekend in Morro Bay, CA--Elvis was the finale!! He came in singing a medley of great Elvis songs & sang hrs straight. Our guest had a great time. Elvis draped the ladies with scarves & furnished the men with Elvis sunglasses". Rick sounds like Elvis, moves like Elvis and acts like Elvis...an amazing performance! Rick was great to work with. He stayed flexible, responded quickly to emails & calls. Rick is not just a great entertainer, but a genuinely nice, honest person. We highly recommend him.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 3, 2013•From San Francisco, CA

Rick exceeded my expectations. The party would not have been nearly as fun without his performance. He was very accomadating- taking photos with all of the guests. I would highly recommend him to anyone hoping to make their party one that guests will continue to talk about.

Casino Event•Reviewed on June 16, 2009•From Oakland, CA

Ladies and gentleman! The ULTIMATE ELVIS TRIBUTE SHOW !!! We opted to have a 45 minute deluxe Elvis tribute show with a synchronized light show option during the performance. Very impressive, and met with a standing ovation! When Rick, and his crew got set up they were testing the sound, lights, and all . Rick was singing as he walked the room checking his microphone reception. I had to walk up to him to see if it was really him singing. Man is he good! Definitely close to the genuine article in my book. Many show options to give you the flexibility to arrange exactly what you want, and will work with your budget. Thanks again for a impressive evening!
