We had the good fortune of connecting with Argelio Deleon and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Argelio, what led you to pursuing a creative path professionally?
My whole life I have been very passionate about music. I’ve always liked to listen to all different kinds of genres of music. Till this day it doesn’t matter what i’m doing on my day to day activities, I always have music playing in the background. As a kid I always had an interest in learning to play different instruments. Once I made it to intermediate school I finally got the opportunity to join the schools band program and my passion grew even more from there. I remember back in high school I used to joke about DJing my way through college.
I didn’t actually start DJing until after college though. I had already graduated when I got a phone call from my high school band director telling me how his family owned an events venue in Conroe and that he was their DJ. Then he asked if I was interested in learning to DJ so that I could cover for him when he was busy with school events. Of course I said yes. A little time after that my band directors family decided to sell the venue, but by that time I had already fallen in love with the art of DJing and thats when I decided to start my own business.
Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
I am very proud of how far Prestige Signature Events has come. We have been able to build a team of the most talented DJs in all of Houston. We all bring a high level energy to every event, our ability to read the dance floor helps us keep every guest dancing with a specially curated playlist for each event. We help every single person create amazing memories whether they are on the dance floor or at one of our Photo Booths. We know that event planning can be a lot of work. What sets us apart is how we make it simple for each client to plan for their event. We will work closely with you to make sure your event is perfect and your guest will be talking about how much fun they had at the event you put together for years to come.
Getting to this point has not been easy but with support from the the Houston community we have been able to get to the point we’re in today. The majority of the events we book are from people recommending us to their friends, family and colleagues.
One of the most important things I have learned is that you always have to give 110% in everything that you do. You never know who is watching or who you’re going to meet either at an event or in your everyday life. Being in this industry has lead me to meet and celebrate some incredible people.
We are just a group of passionate entertainers who are always ready to celebrate every special occasion with you!
If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Well I’m in Conroe so we would definitely be taking them somewhere there in the downtown area. There are so many great places to hang out, from enjoying live music at The Table at Madeley, eating at the Pacific Yard house, or just getting a drink at any of the bars in downtown conroe, they all have delicious drinks.
Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I definitely wouldn’t be where I am today with out the help and support of others. Running a business is an absolute rollercoaster ride. I would like to shout out my wife who has fully supported me on this journey. She also plays a big part in making Prestige the best entertainment company in Houston, from running photo booths, to working behind the scenes so that every event is perfect, this company wouldn’t be the same without her.
