Dear Rick,
On behalf of our family, I want to thank you for such a wonderful performance for our Aunt Bunny's birthday! She was absolutely blown away! It will be a memory she will always hold close to her heart!
After you left, we shared what we most liked about Elvis, and it was anonymous that you were fabulous! Aunt Bunny especially liked how you included everyone in the pictures. She got the biggest kick out of you calling her "A hot short stack of pancakes!" as she loves pancakes! How did you know? Your passion, humor and professionalism were without a doubt, superior! Your sound system was quite ingenious, especially as it hooked up to the cadillac! Truly a great memory to have always...
If there is another website to give a testimonial for you, please share that. We would like to give you a thumbs up!!
Thanks again for a fun afternoon!
Debbie
Rick Torres put on an amazing performance!! He entertained our group beyond my expectations. He had an amazing sound system, great group interaction and his pink caddy was a cool bonus! I would highly recommend Rick for anyones event. He was an excellent Elvis and we all had a blast and the birthday girl felt very special by his serenades and personal attention. Thanks Rick!!
I hired Rick to help me pop the question to my girlfriend. He listened to my ideas and set up the evening so that she was completely surprised and blown away. The King really came through for me and made a special event into something nobody will ever forget, friends and passerbys alike!
Thank u for making my sister's party so memorable and amazing!!! My brother-in-law is an event DJ in the area, and he will make sure to recommend u!!:) JoanMarie
Rick surpassed our expectations! Not only was he a great Elvis, but he's personable, outgoing, socializes with the guests and was a true "hit" of the party. He was very nice to work with and accommodated all of our needs. He's a genuinely nice guy!
My friends will be booking him.
Rick was amazing! He pulled up in a pink caddy. He started singing and surprised the guest of honor and a backyard full of guests. It was a surprise performance for my clients husband. He teared up! He was the perfect balance of singing like him and incorporating some dance moves but without going overboard. I would book him again. I highly recommend Rick to anyone in need of the king of pop at their party!
Rick is Elvis. Rick is an outstanding performer and very professional. Leslie has had a lot of birthdays (a lot). Leslie the Birthday Girl admitted this is the BEST birthday gift ever and no one will ever top this. Her co-workers were very impressed and one cried because Rick had a beautiful voice and he looked great. Rick gave us more than a show he gave us Elvis back
Rick performed at my mom's 70th birthday party. Not only did he do a great job as Elvis but he really went above and beyond to make her day extra special. He was fun, energetic and so accommodating. He not only gave the birthday girl lots of attention but he was great at engaging the rest of the guest as well. I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking for a fabulous performance. Thanks for everything!!!
Rick did an amazing job with his show. He was spot on from the moment he entered the room to the moment he drove away. My mother in-law had the very best birthday Ever and Rick's performance was the biggest reason! Those that attended were amazed by how he stay after to pose for pictures and show off his pink Cadillac for everyone and anyone. He'll be hearing from us again!
Rick was great. Our guests (about 40) thoroughly enjoyed Rick's singing and overall likeness to Elvis. The most heard comment was how "personable" he was. I would definitely recommend Rick Torres. It was an unforgettable experience. Janice Khalil
Rick was fabulous!! I booked him for my mothers 70th birthday party. She was so impressed!! All the guests were! Rick answered all of my calls and emails immediately and I couldn't have asked for more. I would recommend Rick over and over ! Thanks for making my mothers special day so memorable!! Laurie
It was a pleasure to hire Rick Torres for the third time and for more events to come! From the time you book him to beyond the performance, he is an excellent communicator, timely, etc. -- A true Professional! When I look amongst the crowd and see tears of joy and smiles from ear to ear, you know he has accomplished bringing them back to a time of their memories with Elvis and that's what it's all about!! Thanks Rick -- you did it again!!!!!!!
Rick Torres, Bay Area's #1 Elvis Impersonator, traveled from the Bay Area to Folsom to perform at my mom’s 70th b-day party. Rick was extremely reliable, was in constant communication with me leading up to the event, and I was confident that it would all go off without a hitch, which it did. My mom grew up to Elvis tunes and loved The King. Rick Torres did an AWESOME job and everyone at the party loved it!! We’ll all be talking about it for years to come. Great memories were made.
There is something magical about this guy. Actually, from what I know of him, there is everything magical about him. I wanted to do something extra special for my son's 1st birthday party - he'd shown a real liking to guitars, music, bananas, cool hair, and Elvis.
I contacted Rick, and immediately felt star-struck - over the phone! I felt transported back in time, and actually felt as though I were talk to Elvis himself!!!!!! I had to seriously check myself a few times, because from everything I've seen, heard and read about Elvis, this guy seemed like the real deal. He was so kind, sweet, easy to talk to, and built up just the kind of excitement that I wanted to feel on my son's special day. Rick's performance was one of the first arrangements I made, and it was so so SO much fun to plan after having spoken with him on the phone. I could not wait for his show!!!!!!
I sent emails back and forth to Rick regarding costume, song choice, location and any concerns we had (music regulations in a park, etc.) He was responsive every time, in a very timely manner, answered all of my questions, and I felt like he was truly excited to perform for us.
On the special day, I actually had butterflies in my stomach when his manager said he had arrived - I felt like I was going to meet ELVIS PRESLEY! He walked out of his pink Cadillac, and I think everyone's jaws just dropped. I could literally feel a sense of awe come over the whole party. Everyone ran up to him and he took pictures with everyone - so graciously - and sang during pictures, said sweet things - just like Elvis (if this was not actually Elvis himself)!
When the performance began, everyone was looking around like where is this humongous concert sound coming from ?!!! (People even came up to us afterwards and said this). Somehow this Magic Elvis put on an entire concert on a small patch of sand and made us all feel that we were in Hawaii!!!!!! At the beach!!!!! He even put in a few special words to dedicate the song to my son.
I seriously have tears in my eyes writing this, I was so moved by his presence. My dad, a very seasoned judge of character, could not get over how genuine a man we had all just met. We were all so honored to be in his presence.
Rick Torres is either an incredible, true professional and performer, or actually just Elvis himself. Not even kidding
Rick Torres performed as Elvis effortlessly. He was on time, charming, sexy, handsome, funny, professional, sang beautifully. He not only sang Happy Birthday, but acknowledged a retirement, a college graduation and an Air Force enlistment. He is by far the best Elvis entertainer in several areas; voice, personality, sense of humor, looks, hair, outfits, jewelry and sheer professionalism. Superb!
Rick was amazing to work with! Responsive and very accommodating. He was on time (actually early)... Everyone from the event raved about him and Rick (ELVIS) was definitely the hit of the evening! I do not know how I will be able to throw another event to top this one! THANK YOU so much! A definite winner!!! If anyone ever needs a reference, please have them contact me. I would be happy to give my feedback and very satisfied comments! I cannot say enough!!!!! This was a school auction, so a tough crowd, but there was nothing but positive comments, laughter and overall fun! People are still talking about it one month later!!!!!! Thank you again!
I can not even begin to express my appreciation for Rick and his amazing performance! It was beyond anything we could have ever expected. His showmanship was superb. My family was amazed and enthralled. The party was for my 70 year old mother in law who is the upmost Elvis fan and she was estatic to say the least. We would definitely recommend Rick to anyone looking for a fantastic Elvis!! PS His wife Bobbie was also awesome! Can't say enought good thins about this duo. Tey truly gave us a night to remember!! Thank you Rick and Bobbie The Whitaker Clan
Elvis (Rick) was amazing! I could not attend a bachelorette party for a good friend of mine and wanted to send something really special.He did an incredible job!!! Not only did I get an ecstatic call right after he left from the bride to be, but also got follow up multiple calls from all who were there and many more in following days! My favorite was from the bride to be who said " I have just been breaking out in excited giggles, at random times for days now after Elvis arrived! Thank you SO much!" He was SO easy to work with on all aspects of the event!! And everyone was thrilled at his performance!!! I will definitely be using him again! Rick is the best!
We call Rick “our Elvis” now because that’s how special he made us feel. From the first email and call, he made everything simple and personal. I felt so confident with Rick from the beginning; it was one element of our party that I didn’t worry about. He takes care of everything for you. Even when I had a late change, Rick was willing to do whatever it took to make everything work. My family was surprised and thrilled when Elvis came in and started singing. Some people cried! Elvis drew a crowd at our venue, so was able to entertain a lot of people, while concentrating on the guest of honor. You know how Rick sounds great on his Website? He sounds even better in person. He has every detail down perfectly: outfit, jewelry, look, expressions, speech, and poses. And he knows how to work a crowd. He’s funny too and keeps everyone entertained. We had fun picking out his outfit and songs and to see it all come together as we had imagined was thrilling. Rick loves what he does and ensures every detail to make sure you do too. If you’re looking for your own Elvis, you’ve found him. Thank you so much, Rick!
Hi Rick, I just have to tell you that you totally made my Aunts 90th Birthday one of a lifetime. We took her out Monday for dinner and she wore her sunglasses and scarf. She actually has worn it everyday and she goes out to lunch everyday. She even will put the sunglasses on while watching TV. She told my other Aunt that I had you flown in from Vegas.
Thanks again for a very memorable time
Rhonda
Rick. Just a note to tell you how much we enjoyed your performance. It was terrific!! I might have to have you come to one of our barbecues this summer for a little performance. Everyone had a great time and you made the entire event! My cousin was speechless (even with his poor english, he literally was speechless!) He posted you on facebook and raved about your performance. Thank you again for making his birthday a very special experience. Also, thank your wife for all the great support and to keep me calm!!! lol Thanks again! Magnicifient!!
Rick
I would like to thank you for performing at my birthday party (3/1) you were so amazing and fun!
Thank you for all the time you spent with our guests taking photos and just talking with us, It was truly a wonderful night.
Everyone couldn't stop talking about what a great thing to do for a party. Thank you again
Rick Torres was fabulous to work with! I decided to surprise my husband last minute and with less than 12 hours notice, Rick was ready to roll. It was a fantastic way to kick off my husband's 50th birthday with Rick's surprise performance at my husband's office. It was memorable, fun and everyone loved it!!!
Rick is as good as Elivs' gets! 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!
We are still talking about the amazing time we had that night as Elvis our evening Sept 3, 2013 in Los Gatos at Campo Di Bocci.
I am writing this review not because I have been asked by Rick Torres aka ELVIS, but because I was more than pleased with his performance as Elvis for my boyfriends 49th birthday and his total overall professionalism.
I just had happened to Google and see a few different Elvis's that I could hire for an event. I came across one that stood out from the rest! I sent an email out that somehow went to three different impersonators??? I spoke to one over the phone and being short on time for the event I just hired on the spot. Within a few min of that conversation with a different Elvis impersonator I received a call back from Bay Area #1 Elvis Tribute Artist Rick Torres.
After talking to Rick and hearing the love and excitement he had for Elvis (as my boyfriend shares the same sentiments) made me change my plans and go with him...and boy I was not let down! Rick was and is the REAL DEAL! He was professional as is his website! He really loves truly loves what he does and it shows through his work!
Rick has the look down right down to all his suits which are all made by the same people who made the Kings (BK Enterprises). He also has some of Elvis's Jewelry designed for him. Right down to Elvis's Pink Cadillac. Rick's ability to echo and capture the essence of Elvis was just as impressive! He had all the moves and vocals down! His energy was amazing!
Since hiring Rick we have seen two other impersonators at some other local events and hands down Rick had the best overall presentation! If you want to have an event or hire him for a birthday, wedding, festival, or whatever, than I would recommend Rick Torres! You will NOT be disappointed! He is local, has his very own special designed sound system, and his prices are competitive!
Thank you Rick for your amazing unforgettable night! You made my boyfriend’s birthday PRICELESS...my boyfriend was "All Shook up! "And the memories are pressed between the pages of our minds"! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
Julie and Ivan
We hired Rick to do a surprise singing telegram (Elvis Quickie) at our company holiday party. He rolled up in his white Thunderbird convertible in full costume and character and speedily got his sound system ready (really, it's ready in 30 seconds!). Our guests were all dramatically entertained as Rick opened his performance with "All Shook Up", followed by a couple of Christmas songs before he closed with “Blue Suede Shoes”. The smiles on everyone's faces were priceless, especially considering our audience of corporate financial professionals. Rick stole the show with his Elvis poses and truly great singing voice while charming just about everyone at our event.
Our company was "buzzing" after he left and he will be remembered for a very long time. "Thank you, Thank you very much, Rick!"
I hired Rick for my boyfriend's 31st Birthday. Rick was amazing from the moment I contacted him. He walked me through all the options available to me and we came to a decision. He was great about coordinating every detail and really listened to me and what I wanted accomplished. On to the night of the event: All I can say is he IS Elvis! From the moment he walked into the restaurant to surprise my boyfriend he was ON FIRE! He took us for a ride in his pink Cadillac up and down Santana Row and sang all our favorite Elvis songs! At the end of the ride he dropped us off in front of our hotel and there was quite a crowd watching! Rick totally got the crowd into singing Happy Birthday and posed for pictures. The glasses and scarves as a souvenir were the icing on the cake. The rest of this night out on the Row, people kept asking us if we were the ones with Elvis. My boyfriend was proud to confirm it was him riding with Elvis. I have never seen him with a bigger smile on his face. Mission accomplished! It was an epic night! The next day Rick checked in to make sure we had a good time, complimented us as a couple and reminded us he was also an ordained minister! We will keep that in mind Rick. :) But seriously, Rick is a true professional. Highly highly recommended!
Rick came through in every way possible! Showed up early for the event, brought custom created costumes that looked fabulous, and even brought home made scarves to distribute to the audience during his performance. Couldn't have asked for a better Elvis! Thanks Rick!
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". Cathy Cornelius CONCORD, CA
Completely accessible, completely professional and completely ELVIS!!! Rick accommodated special pre-party requests concerning his performance, coordinated his music with our DJ, confirmed all details just prior to our event, his show was family friendly and his pink Cadillac was a big hit. I spent over $8,000 on the party but his performance fee was by far the best spent investment of the night. He brought laughter, dance and good vibrations to the party. HIRE THIS MAN!!!
Rick is absolutely amazing! I cannot say enough about him and his services. To begin with, his website is so informative and extremely easy to use. He was very professional and responded to every question in a very timely manner. When it came to his actual performance for my girlfriend's 50th birthday, he did the most incredible performance. Everything turned out absolutely perfect. My girlfriend (who is a huge Elvis fan) was thrilled. The rest of the guests thought he was fabulous. He has everything covered, including jewelry styled after the exact jewelry that Elvis wore. His 1963 Cadillac was the finishing touch. Everything was perfect! He leaves no detail uncovered. You will not be disappointed. I would not hesitate to book him again!
Rick Torres was a pleasure to work with. Very accommodating and professional. He truly knows how to work an audience. Everyone loved his performance...from young to old! You won't be disappointed.
Rick Torres was FANTASTIC ! The event was for our disabled daughters 20th birthday party. If I could could give him 1000 stars I would. He looked and sounded great. He was very sweet and gentle with my daughter. She is in a wheelchair and he got down on his knees and sang to her looking straight into her eyes. I couldn't hold back the tears as I saw how happy he made her. He interacted with the large party and made everyone feel included. After the show, he stayed and took pictures with everyone. He also gave a little history on his suit and jewelry which was a very nice touch. I HIGHLY recommend Rick Torres and look forward to booking him more in the future.
Dear Rick,
We can't thank you enough for the great show you did for our baby girl yesterday. You were amazing and everyone that was here thought you were the best they've ever seen, When Scarlett was diagnosed with Rett syndrome at the age of 7 the doctors said it was very unlikely that she would live to see her 9th birthday. It was an honor to have you celebrate her 20th birthday with us, I had tears in my eyes watching you kneel in front of her and sing to her making her feel like the little princess that she is. You truly made our little girl very, very happy.
All our friends were blown away at how engaged she was throughout your performance. You were so sweet and gentle with her, there aren't words to express how grateful we are to you for bringing her and our entire family and friends so much happiness on this special day.
We look forward to having you at more parties in the future and we will be telling everyone we know about you. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts. You are a true gentleman
WOW! We were so impressed! First it started with his wonderful website all the choices and layout to choose from, I even had another Elvis try to get us to go with him but I felt Rick Torres was professional! He confirmed all the details for our event, and did a Wedding Anniversary dedication! All our customers loved his performance and how he moved around! It made for a wonderful start on our customer appreciation event! Everything turned out really good, will use him again for our next event!
Ohh God he was fantastic the residents like him alot . I will defenally book him again!!
This is the second time that we have hired Rick in the last year for our Parties! He is the best that anyone could ever have! You are so talented and all of us love to watch you perform! You make our parties so special with your songs, dance and overall performing! Your the Best Rick! Many Thanks for making our paties so special! Barbara Stahl
E-V-E-R-Y-O-N-E JUST LOVED HIM! We were very proud to show him off at our event as he displayed such professionalism to our residents and guests. His costume was clean and neat, He was well groomed (loved the sideburns) and the big plus was having his own set up that was trouble free. OMG, he even drove up in style! Pretty in Pink (Sort of Speak! : ) He's a keeper!
Rick Torres IS Elvis! What a talented & professional performer. From the moment I first spoke with him to the day of the event, Rick was in constant communication with me to ensure that my dad's party was a success! And it was! My mom laughed so hard her stomach hurt. The guests were constantly smiling from ear to ear. My three-year-old kept looking for him after he left. As I tucked her in bed, she said,"Mom, when I grow up I want to be Elvis." Rick Torres has left us all with a wonderful memory!
Rick was awesome! He was exactly on time, incredible easy to work with, and had some serious talent. He worked the crowd with his awesome dancing and singing skills and really made me (the guest of honor) special. Thank you, thank you, thank you! He made the night!
Rick was great! He entertained the crowd and made the ladies swoon. He was fun and well liked by everyone. There was even a line for autographs!! He pink caddy was a hoot. I would hire him again in a quick second....
This was a special event made even better by Rick and his pink cadillac. Thank you for making my birthday an unforgettable experience!!!!
Response from Bay Area Elvis Impersonator Rick Torres:
Thank you Suzie Baby! Hope to see you again!!
Rick, thank you sooooooo much! You were awesome and my sister and family thoroughly enjoyed your show. Your professionalism and your energy were so great.
I will defiantly will be seeing you again for another event!
Thank you!!
Mabel
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....
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.
I tasked Rick with the very difficult mission of crashing into a busy restaurant that my wife manages in the middle of the busiest hours of dinner and surprise her with four songs to commemorate our first wedding anniversary. Rick handled all of the uncertainties of how this would all play out like the absolute entertainment professional that he is. Not only did he make my wife feel like she was the center of the universe, but Rick worked the entire crowd of the restaurant giving them all the show of a lifetime. After his performance, every single table lined up to have a picture with the King. His performance of the Hawaiian Wedding Song from Blue Hawaii (the song my wife and I danced to at our wedding) was a beautiful rendition... time froze and we danced again. Thank you Rick for the work that you do, I can't wait to hire you again!!!
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.
Rick Torres was absolutely great to work with and is a great entertainer. He was very friendly, cooperative and proactive with all the booking details and even allowed me to make last-minute changes to the song list. His website contains all the information that you need to make a complete show package... songs, outfits, give-aways, feedback, pictures, and videos. This guy is very thorough and professional. Rick knocked the socks off of everyone at my mom's birthday party. I totally recommend him to anyone and would enjoy hiring him again. He is truly the Bay-Area's best Elvis entertainer, if not the best in the country! Rick Rocks!
Coordinating the event with Rick was a pleasure - he was so accommodating. His show was everything we wanted and more! I cannot wait to have an occasion to call him again. Thank you Rick - thank you very much!
"We had Elvis out for our parents' 40th anniversary party. Elvis was absolutely amazing! The whole experience exceeded our expectations by far! The performance made the party! He renewed my parents wedding vows, performed songs and took them for a ride in the pink caddy! My parents and every guest at the party were in awe! He took tons of photos with everyone at the party and signed autographs. I highly recommend Elvis to everyone! Memories that will last a lifetime! Thank you Rick!!!!"
Rick Torres did an exceptional job at my Mother's graveside service @Mountain View Cemetery in Oakland. He was so professional with such genuine compassion. Purest Compassion. I could not have expected it to more beautiful and so much like the real "ELVIS". He was great. Thank you so much. See you on the Hot Rod Trail, Much appreciation, Denice Torres Fremont, Ca.
We brought in Elvis (aka, Rick Torres), for the 15 Year Anniversary celebration for the Redwood City Library Foundation at Sparky's Hot Rod Garage. It was so much fun having him sing for our guests. He did a wonderful job engaging the men and women, and his voice is just INCREDIBLE. From the moment I reached out to him to the moment after the event, Rick was always on top of communicating with me. I wholeheartedly recommend Rick Torres for any event where you are in need of a top-notch Elvis impersonator. He truly is the best in the Bay Area. Thank you so much, Rick, for adding that special touch to our event. We can't wait to use you again!
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 & talented person I could have asked for!
Rick was very personable and took the time to make everyone feel special durring his performance:-) He is a true master at performing as Elvis and is knowledgable about the history of Elvis as well. I can see how he is ranked the #1 Elvis Impersonator! Thank You Elvis!
He sure knows how to shake it! I Margaret 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.
Rick and King Creole Entertainment nailed it on our surprise 50th birthday party for our Dad.
From the initial contact through the website and then on the phone Rick was very easy to work with. Our set time was 8:30 pm on a Friday night, I called him a few hours before and asked him to push it back by 15 minutes and without a hitch he was able to accommodate.
Once inside the building as he said he comes in rocking, music starts to roll and before you know it there he was entertaining our surprised guest of about 50 people. He was extremely great with the kids as well, we had about 5 kids at our party and he gave them special attention.
At one point a little girl went up to him during song requests and asked him to sing Lilo and Stitch and again without a hitch (no pun intended) he made up a song that sounded quite well and was entertaining!
After his approx. 45 minute performance he invited the guest out to take pictures and check out the pink Cadillac he drives to the events he performs at. He even opened the trunk and gave a few of the kids some 24k plastic gold Elvis glasses.
He really entertained our party and I would recommend him to all of my friends and anybody looking to add the extra sauce to your party.
Well worth the money in every way. Way to go King Creole Entertainment!
Rick was amazing. He put on a show that our family and friends will be talking about for years to come. He was able to transport my mom back in time and allow her to see Elvis the way she remembered him. From the time that I booked Rick he kept in contact with me and made the appearance so easy. He brought everything that he needed to perform, and perform he did. Rick made my mom feel so special, but also involved all of our guests. After his performance he shared his love of Elvis with the guests and explained his costume so there where no awkward moments. He also encouraged pictures and was accommodating of everyone's requests . Rick will make your party a success.
Rick was reliable, punctual and a great entertainer. I would hire him again for another party! My friends and I really enjoyed him!
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!
Not only does Rick Torres look like Elvis, but he is obviously a huge fan of Elvis! He has been so careful in his selection of clothing, rings, car. Everything has so much meaning to him. It's obvious he wants to 'honor" Elvis. I am so glad I hired him for our party. He made the party! He included everyone, not only the birthday girl. I can not recommend him more highly for your next event. I will tell everyone how professional and how much fun he was!!
I have hired Rick to perform in our facility twice now and each time our group had such a great time! The residents really enjoyed his show not to mention my boss. He's got great energy and works the crowd very well...great performer!! Thanks again for the awesome show.
We really enjoyed having Rick come out and surprising our boss for this birthday ! It was something we will never forget! Great performance !!!!!!!
I was so amazed. Rick was recommended to me by my daughter from several years back where he had given her a Cadi ride for her 21st birthday. She couldn't stop talking about it. So when we decided to have a 'Christmas Party, Las Vegas Style', I had to get him! WOW, he was the hit of the party. Folks were mesmerized by his uncanny resemblance and singing ability! And the pink cadi was just over the top! He made my party! Thanks to Rick and his fabulous performance!
This is the 2nd time I've booked Rick for my center of frail, elderly and disabled adults. The last time was several years ago and they literally have talked about him ever since! Our group is memory impaired, so this is the highest form of compliment! Rick does the best Elvis our 102 year old celebrant has ever saw-and she's been around! His voice, the costumes, the fancy footwork and highkicks can't be beat. He gives every member of the audience special attention and has an amazing talent for improvisational humor. He quickly senses each individual and chats with them, gives them a hug, a kiss or a funny line that makes them feel special. Rick is the best!!
I ordered Rick for a surprise for a client's holiday party. He kept in constant communication, was very professional and was very well received at the party-everyone had a great time. Would highly recommend Rick and will use him again. I'm from Vegas, I know my Elvis' and Rick is 5 star!
Rick was awesome and very professional. He was easy to get a hold of and very responsive to emails & phone calls. He did everything he said he would do and even showed up a little early. He was a great performer and our group had a great time and will remember that night for a long time! I can't wait to have another event where we can hire him!
Rick recently performed at our annual Christmas Party. The theme was Viva Las Vegas. What better way to deliver the glam of Vegas than Elvis himself! While there are many Elvis tribute artists available, Rick should be your number one choice. Rick takes his role very seriously. Not only does he look and sound like Elvis, he also is charismatic. At our holiday party, everyone had a great time and Rick absolutely stole the show. I would recommend Rick to anyone in the market for a Elvis Tribute Artist!
Rick Torres Bay Area's #1 Elvis Impersonator singing Elvis's songs is so good, we thought he was using Elvis records and lip syncing. NO WAY!! Rick is singing and it sounds like the real Elvis is there. The crew & managers of the theater stopped all their work just to watch & listen to Rick's great singing. Everyone loved him. The commments from the audience were so great about Rick's concert like: "...I thought Elvis was back." And "...you don't miss Elvis while Rick is singing and performing." BayAreaDanceWatch has hired Rick Torres before & will hire him again. We recommend him to other businesses & individuals. So should you. BayAreaDanceWatch will be hiring
For our Sons In Retirement dinner party in the Villages, Rick was a real hit. Initially he started off with a meet-and-greet, where he circled the room 3 times (110 people) making sure he talked and acted like Elvis with everyone. It was a lot of fun and he really charmed the ladies. There has never been as much laughter in any of our meetings. Then Rick sang 10 selected songs, and he was very good. Many people sang with him. This was followed with photos with all guests who wanted it, and he handed out autographed post cards of him. It's clear to me he really likes people and they felt that very much. This was a 5/5 performance and we hope to see him again, Jeff
Hi Rick!
I apologize for the delayed response...
I wanted to let you know just how AMAZING you were at the party... Everyone is STILL talking about it and I can only imagine that they will be for years to come!
You really impressed everyone and I couldn't be more thankful.... But now how am I ever going to be able to throw a party without you there? The expectation has been set! Guess we will be doing business together for years to come! (well, that is my hope!)
Everything; from your singing, to your costume, to your pink Cadillac, exceeded my wildest expectations!
Thank you so very much and a extra special thanks for taking the time to learn a new song and debut it at our party!!! You are outstanding at what you do and it is no wonder you are so heavily booked!
I am already petitioning my office to have you at an event.... and have already given your contact info to a few people.
You really do the king justice and are the best tribute artist I have ever come across! I wish I could gush more when submitting this feedback! Happy Holidays and a wonderful new year to you and your family!
Hope to see you again soon!
All the best,
Monika
From the first email inquiry that I sent to Rick, he was prompt, informative & professional. He truly is a great person & a great performer. I admire his talent and his love of music is felt with his presence. My parents were surprised to have him at their wedding anniversary celebration. The guests were delighted to hear him sing and I enjoyed that he moved throughout the crowd to greet the guests. He arrived early and even performed early with my approval. Their portable sound system and pink Caddy are awesome! He took his time taking pictures afterwards. It has been a pleasure working with Rick & Bobbie as well. They are pleasant individuals and Im thankful!
Rick Torres rocked the party!!! He was awesome, and worked with us to be sure to keep the party a surprise all the way up until he walked out! I definitly recommend him for any Elvis party or performance you need!! Thank you so much Rick for making this party the best!
Omg Rick Torres was AMAZING!!!! I booked him for my boyfriends 26 bitthday and him and alll of our friend s absolutely loved him! You could tell he was passionate about what he was doin he just had so much energy he definitely got the party started! My nina thought he was lip singing his voice was amazing and his moves to! The next day all my friends kept talking about was how great the elvis impersonator was and how can they book him! We absolutely loved the pink caddy ride! The outfit was awesome all the way down to the rings! He told me he strived for customer satisfaction well Rick you went over and beyond! I can't thank you enough :-)
Hi Rick,
Maybe you remember me. I was sitting with my wife during your Half Moon Bay show. I was the bald guy and we were celebrating our anniversary.
I just wanted to say Thanks for your show. Do you ever think about how much joy you give entertaining? (I know that sounds corny, but Elvis loved corny.) People were smiling, laughing, and groovin'.
Much luck to you. I do talk to others about you, and I'm hopin' you'll get gigs from my referrals.

I just want to tell you that my family and friends are still raving about the entertainment that Rick Torres gave to us last Saturday. Everyone agreed that he was so very pleasant, patient ,and caring as well as such a great "Elvis". The visit moved along at a very comfortable pace. And that pink caddy--WOW!! what a gem! There is nothing he could have done to make the evening more enjoyable and fun!! How fortunate we all are that Barbara found him on the Internet to make my day (and those of my guests )an unforgettable one. THANK YOU, RICK!!! Dorothy Esche (Barbara Stahl's mother)
From the start Rick was personable, professional, & truely very easy to work with. I hired him for my wedding to surprise my father who is a HUGE elvis fan. I asked Rick to sing our father/daughter dance (behind a curtain)& present himself when the song was 3/4ths done to surprise my dad AND immediately after sing 2 songs with my dad! I was hesitant on asking this bc I didn't know how he would take sing beind a curtain & then having him & my dad sing together...feeling like we were stepping on his toes. When I spoke to him about my idea he was SO happy to do it. He ROCKED out and everyone was telling us that Rick was the best Elvis Impersonator they've seen! A total hit!
Wow! What a performance Rick provided for my Moms 75th Birthday last Saturday. He was so professional and WE All felt that Elvis was in the house! Rick is not only so sweet and kind but very good in his singing and performing. We had almost 30 guests at our party and EVERYONE said that Ricks show was the best they have every seen. Rick- You get a 10 from all of us! Many Thanks for giving us and my Mom Memories of a Lifetime! I am still getting compliments of how well you did! My Mom said that you were the Highlight of her Party Dads 80th is next year and he said yesterday that he wants you at his Party. Barbara
There is nobody better !!!! Saw Rick at a few different events and the buzz is so positive. He is the best Elvis without a doubt. He did an amazing performance! It was like a Las Vegas Show spotlight and all! He will be at all our future events.
First let me start by saying the"THE KING" is very much well and alive! He was on time, very interactive with our family and made everyone reminisce and reflect on fond memories of Elvis when we were young. After making all of us laugh and enjoy his stage presence with his opening monologues and really taking on the Elvis character, he performed some of our families favorite songs. He took a few family members for a spin in his beautiful pink cadillac. My mother sure enjoyed her 81st birthday for sure thanks to Rick. We thank you guys for a memorable experience and a night we'll never forget We also thank his assistant too she was awesome. But please fix the amp;)
Thank you, Rick! A good time was had by ALL…and I do believe the entire HR Department will still be employed…at least for now.
Thank you for making Monica’s 35-Year Anniversary a very special event. Monica thoroughly enjoyed your tribute, and everyone enjoyed YOU! Thanks again for being a HUGE part of the celebration!!!

After "Elvis" surpised my husband on his 75th birthday we now have an "Elvis" tribute on the window sill in our dining room showcasing the Elvis glasses, postcard, and party pictures draped with a Burning Love scarf inscribed "Happy Birthday Jim" and signed Elvis Presley. And he's chiseling into the concrete patio floor "Elvis was here" where Elvis sang to him & gathered guests. One who is soon to turn 94 said it was the best party he had ever attended. Rick Torres is.a true treasure and talent on and off stage. His performance personality not only mirrors Elvis" but his personal attention to details before, during & after the event are unsurpassed. Thanks Elvis!
What do you give a 75 year old who has it all? A flash from her youth, Elvis! I've seen Rick perform at another birthday party and was so impressed that we sought him out for my mother's 75th birthday. Elvis Rick Torres is a true professional from start to finish. He answers phone calls and emails immediately and he has a comprehensive website which makes costume and song choices very easy. Yes, you get to pick the costume he will wear and the songs he will sing. Rick is very good at what he does and it is apparent that he has been doing it for a long time, his performance was realistic and very entertaining. Everyone enjoyed themselves, the pink Cadi was the icing on the cake!
Rick performed at our store Grand Opening Celebration! From coordinating the event to the performance itself it was great experience. I woud give him 10+ stars if I could. Everyone loved him and had a great time. We will definately use him again and highly recommend him to anyone. Thanks Rick, Thank you very much:)
How best to describe RICK TORRES Bay Area's #1 Elvis Tribute Artist...OUTSTANDING TALENT,GREAT SINGER,TOP PERFORMER, CHARISMATIC, and HIGHLY ENTERTAINING! Rick ( THE KING ) transported our entire party of over 100 guest back in time to 1973, for a one of a kind concert experience { VEGAS STYLE BABY!}and a special guest appearance by MARILYN MONROE who was absolutley amazing herself. Rick brought my in-laws to tears with a beautiful rendition of LOVE ME TENDER for their anniversary song. My wife said it was the best birthday gift she ever recieved! friends and relatives are still raving about the party! Rick you are" THE KING " thank you, thank you very much!
Rick (Elvis) Was definately in the building on Thursday night!! he had an amazing voice, he was on time, very professional and left my party guests in awe! Not to mention the women drooling! Everyone Loved the show so much! from the costume , the leg kicks, to the sunglasses & scarf for me to wear during his incredible performance. I would defineitely use Rick again for many more parties at The Cats and other venues! thanks to Rick It was the best birthday ever!! ~ Jillian Facchino
Rick Torres is the best! He looks, acts and sounds just like Elvis! He sings so well, we thought it was a recording at first! And I have to mention his pink cadillac....It is the BOMB! We will definitely hire Rick again!
Rick is a fantastic entertainer. He wowed the crowd and was so personable to everyone in the audience. Very approachable, willing to take the time for the many, many picture requests from our Elvis fans. I would highly recommend Rick for any event. He is a true showman!
Wonderful, as per the usual! We look forward to having Rick back in December!
Rick is the real deal! His performance at our surprise birthday party venue of 17 ladies, one 92 year old woman and my husband was a hit. Not only does he sound like Elvis but has the moves down. He made a point to sing to each and every person at the party. He's charismatic just as the King was. Rick was on time, looked great in the white jumpsuit with fringe, and started singing immediately from the songs I had picked. Almost the minute I picked him from the reviews on Gig Masters, he called me on the phone and we went over everything that would take place at the party. He's a true professional and we would use him again in a heart beat. Janice G.
Rick Torres turned my wedding into the party of the year! The pink cadillac drove up and the good times began to roll! I was amazed at the choice of songs and outfits and Rick even helped out with some playful Elvis inspired vows. Reviewing his website, I was struck by how complete the list of songs is and how historical the costumes are, complete with background information. Rick has a genuine respect, admiration, and connection to the King!! He rocked the house, got everyone dancing, and really did wonderful renditions of the songs we chose. I highly recommend Rick Torres to anyone seeking a unique and memorable entertainment experience.
Rick was the life of the party and he exceeded my expectations! His show was amazing! Rick walked around the room and engaged the audience. This was for my boyfriend's birthday party and he loved the performance. After he was done singing, he took pictures with all of my guests in front of the pink cadillac. Rick was entertaining, fun and authentic. I whole-heartedly recommend him for your special event. He made our event special and I know my guests will be talking about this performance for a long time. Thanks, Rick!
Rick torres was amazing! And he was great at being on time and wearing the outfit we picked and playing all the songs we loved. Our guests really enjoyed his show and still talk to me about it today! Thank you Rick! You made our day very special
An excellent overall experience! I would recommend Rick Torres without reservation
RICK WAS THE CONSUMMATE PROFESSIONAL! HE DELIVERED THE ULTIMATE ELVIS EXPERIENCE. FUNNY, ENGAGING, INTERACTIVE. EVERYTHING HE PROMISED, HE DELIVERED 110%. I WOULD ENGAGE HIM AGAIN IN A HEARTBEAT!
I believe this was RIck's SEVENTH As always, we were very pleased with Rick! We can't wait to have him back for a second performance in our Coca-Cola Summer Concert Series and will of course book again for holiday entertainment!
We just can't get enough of Rick Torres!! 2 times in 1 month!! Hands down..THE BEST Elvis impersonator! He wowed the bride to be with his Elvis moves & sensational personality! Once again he was the major highlight of our party! Not to mention driving the entire bridal party around town singing while impressing our neighbors! Rick Torres is Phenomenal!! Can't wait to have another party!! We are quickly becoming a Rick Torres (Elvis) groupie! Thanks again Rayan Austin
Everyone had a blast at the party! Most especially my mom. She still thinks that Rick was the real Elvis:) Rick was very punctual, entertaining and very professional. I would definitely recommend Rick to all my friends and relatives!
Rick is best Elvis Impersonator !!! Everyone had a great time with his performance ! Thank you !!!
We had Elvis (aka Rick) come out to my SIL's bridal shower this past weekend and he was amazing! She has been a die-hard Elvis fan her whole life and this was the best thing she had ever seen! Rick was an amazing performer and made it feel as though Elvis really was in the building and he even serenaded her with a few extra songs which was really nice. His pink cadillac was phenomenal, even my neighbors came out to see Elvis and told me after that it was the coolest thing they had seen! Rick was great taking lots of pictures with us and Bobbi was great with that as well! Thanks Rick for everything!
Rick was FANTASTIC! My mom was surprised and elated! Everyone in the room enjoyed Rick's performance. I would highly recommend him for a great party experience!! He totally deserves to be #1 Rayan Austin
Rick brings pure joy to a gathering. I first saw him preform at a friends retirement at a Chevys. I then retained him for my brother-in-laws 80th birthday at Stinson Beach. the gigs were quite different. Rick sizes up the dynamics and adapts. He is so professional and so talented. I highly recommend that he arrives as a surprise with his great vocal chords blazing...jaws drop From little kids to those in their golden years....and laughter fills the room. Rick is a kind, sensitive person who does an incredible Elivs. He's sexy too but in a classy way. He kissed a young woman who was wheelchair bound and that really touched my heart. Hire him he's a pro!
Rick was fantastic!! Once Elvis was in the building, the party just went crazy. Everyone loved his performance, the vow renewal ceremony and the photo session afterward. So glad we had Elvis at our parent's 40th Anniversary Party-- he was an absolute hit!
Our experiance with Rick Tores was amazing. From the moment I spoke to him on the phone to book my mothers 75 birthday I knew he was going to be full of life. He gave us the most entertaining experiance anyone could possibly expect. Rick is very talented and made our party something that everyone will always remember. He is the King!
Rick/Elvis,
THANK YOU so very much for such a special surprise visit to our wedding! I think our guests got such a kick out of seeing you and listening to you sing so wonderfully! I especially appreciate the literal "trip down memory lane" as you drove Jason and I down to my grandmother's, past my high school and into the cul-de-sac I grew up on. What a treat that drive was for me. My grandmother had such a great time singing with you and I am so very thankful for the sweet moment you had with her singing the first song Elvis dedicated to his mom! How thoughtful of you!
My warmest and most humble thank you!
Nadia Samii (of Jason Ling & Nadia Samii June 28, 2012)
Elvis Rick Torres Presley was the surprise treat for our guests at an intimate wedding of less than 20 people. He drove hours out of his way to come to a piece of land where we were and last-minute cordially altered his arrival time to match our delayed schedule. He was friendly with all the guests and welcomed photos, autographs and entertained as I imagine Elvis would have, with soul and fire! He was gracious enough to drive us (the wedding couple) down memory lane as he took us back to my grandmother's home. Being wheelchair bound she could not attend our outdoor wedding and he warmly and graciously sung acapella on his knee to her. What memories he created! Jason and Nadia.
Hi Rick,
Right after the June 6th party I had to fly to Phoenix so I did not get the opportunity to thank you for such a great show. Rick, you did a fantastic job and I want to thank you for putting your heart and soul into your performance. I have had many teachers approach me and tell me it was the best retirement party they had ever been to. I believe I have you to thank for that! Your performance just made the whole party come together and everyone had a great time. Thank you, and I will recommend you to friends and family in the future. Sincerely, Peg Shjeflo
Third time I have had hired Elvis Tribute Artist Rick Torres and he is always the best! Well worth the money and he will make an event more memorable.
I've never felt the spirit of Elvis, in a real life setting, come so alive than with DJ Rick. With DJ it's like Elvis never left. He puts the Elvis back into Elvis. We had young dancers from San Francisco in our audiance and they were having a ball - fainting and dancing all around and over and under DJ Rick aka Elvis. His singing is the BEST live Elvis singing I've ever heard...at least in decades for sure. I'm hiring DJ Rick aka Elvis again and I'm encouraging other to as well. You get more than your entertainment dollars worth this Elvis aka DJ Rick. THANK YOU RICK !!!!
Courtside Cottages of Vacaville was so happy to have Rick return once again to our annual car show and BBQ for our residents and their families. He made everyone feel like he was singing only to them, and be made sure he did not miss anyone in the crowd. We look forward to next year's event and especially seeing Elvis and his pink Cadillac ! We love you!!!
My wife is an Elvis fan and I did the same thing for her 40th birthday. She said far and away Rick was the best Elvis she has seen. I received many compliments from the over 50 people at the surprise party that Rick was terrific and played to the crowd. Rick made the event when he gave my wife a ride in his 63 Caddy and play songs will driving and even got participation from bystanders will we were driving. I give 10 thumbs up for his performance. Larry
Rick was great! Everyone enjoyed his performance and his humor. He has a wonderful personality and seems to enjoy what he does.
Rick was awesome , they both were ! We will always use them for any DJ event we have .. they are on time, professional and know how to get a crowd going ... Even the little ones !!! I cannot say enough great things about Rick ... And his price is pretty much unbeatable ! Looking forward to good times .. I will share with all my family and friends ! The Pranys Family
Elvis was the hit of the wedding, it was a so much fun and the guest had a great time. Rick was also very accommadating to what we wanted. Would definately do this again!!!!
Rick was absolutely fabulous! A great performer, wonderful voice, and attentive to every member of the audience, eapecially the 90 year old guest of honor who was thrilled. Thank you so much, Rick, for giving us such a great performance. We enjoyed every minute.
Elvis Tribute Artist Rick was the Best! He made our fundraiser a memorable event for all of our guests. Everyone had a fantastic time. We highly recommend him! The outfits, the personalized scarves, the pink cadillac, his showmanship and singing are all A+!

Talk about a one stop shop, no nonsense and very very easy to work with....Rick Torres' performance was off the hook and just AWESOME! He walked in all ready to go!!! I would definitely recommend him for your small and large events. Mine was small and it did not even phase him to perform in front of 10 or so people. We really enjoyed the show and he made my friend's birthday extra special!!!!!!
Awesome! Simply awesome! From the initial contact to the very end, Rick Torres is a true professional with great talent! I hired him to officiate my wedding and I have to say that he totally captured my vibe and performed the ceremony just perfectly! The guests at my wedding absolutely loved him and talked about his performance all afternoon. Wish I could give him a 10. Thanks Rick!
Mr. Torres was incredibly accomodating, professional & a huge hit. We fully enjoyed the entertainment and taking photos was just as fun. He is highly reccomended from us!
Rick is still the talk of our school. Rick performed for our annual auction teaser and people are still talking. You were great and parents want to know if you will be at the main event in November. Thanks Rick!! Loved the custom song..I need to get the words from you.
Hello Rick!
Wow, WOW! Thank you so much for a wonderful performance and especially for taking the time to make everyone of our volunteer’s feel extra special!
You are amazing and I SO wish I could have paid you more for your services. We work on such a limited budget and keep trying to keep things together to operate this program in 5 counties: Del Norte, Humboldt, Lake, Mendocino and Sonoma. Our volunteers are all low income and do not get to go out to dinner or to performances. I try so hard to make these annual recognition luncheons like the Academy Awards to acknowledge all of their volunteer service to children. With your assistance, this year’s event will go down in history as simply ‘one of the BEST ever’ events.
It was a pleasure to meet Bobbi and I hope that you both had a fun time on your return trip to the Bay Area. Again, I can’t thank you enough for everything you did for our group. I’m off today to take this event to Eureka and to Crescent City. Although the events will be enjoyed by all, they won’t have the benefit of your amazing performance.
Have a great day!
Best regards,
Eileen Bostwick
Having Rick come up to perform at Alderbrook Winery for Passport this year was the highlight of our event and weekend. He is a consumate showman which had me wondering if he is so professional that he never breaks character or if he is just Elvis incarnated all the time. I am now thinking ahead as to what we can do to have him back again, we had highly positive comments regarding Rick and his shows and our decision to have him up to perform. Thanks Rick and King Creole Entertainment
Rick Torres is truly a fabulous Elvis! I have seen many Elvis's over the years and Rick is the best ever! He delivers the true persona of Elvis and is a real crowd pleaser. I have filmed Rick with my TV show, On The Town and interviewed Rick and I am also proud to call him a friend. Rick continues to perform above all expectations and loves what he does. Rick, you make the King proud!
Rick,
Thank you so much for coming up and performing at Alderbrook Winery during our Passport to Dry Creek Valley event. You really made the event special for our guests and everyone involved. Your professionalism and easy attitude made it a pleasure to work with you, and thank you for going the extra mile with regards to doing the commercial as well. Please keep in contact with us as we will do the same with you.
Best regards,
Jamie McNaughton, Alderbrook Winery, Healdsburg, CA
Rick was professional and courteous. His communication was fantastic and he was so flexible and willing to work with me to make my very special event so incredibly magical. He was very pleasant, showed a great performance and had a very warm personality. He was right on time and was just so accomodating in so many ways. He brought tears to many and THAT made it just priceless!!!! I highly recommend him for his great performance and amazing character! FIVE FULL STARS!!!! Thank you Rick...aka Elvis!
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
Rick, Elvis The King. We want to thank you honoring us at our 50th Anniversary last Sat nite, 2-18. You made the night. I have seen Elvis twice, two impersonators but you are the one. I am so honored to have met you and thank you for making me the happiest "hot Mama" in the World. I will be sending you a card as well but since I am still dancing I wanted to let you know. Thank you, Cathy
Hi Rick, Just wanted to thank you for yet another great performance. Joe had no ides and was so surprised. He's still talking about it and my friends Sally and Evelyn loved it. Again thank you so much.
Sherry
All 5 stars! This was the best performer ever! Looked like Elvis had a incredible voice had all the moves and was super nice! We booked him for my grandmas bday and she just loved it! He made her day as well as everyone elses he greeted each and everyone of us. He just did an incredible job! I can't say enough to say how good he really was hopefully we can get him again sometime. THANKS AGIAN
Wow! Rick by far exceeded my expectations! All 25 guest at the party loved him! Rick gave us his all....the whole Elvis experience...we were all transported to another time and enjoyed every song and every minute of it. Rick sang, danced and mingled with the crowd...always in character...we couldn't have ask for anything more. The entire family is still talking about him this morning and so are all the guest that were at the party. He was the highlight of our day! Loved him! We are now his number one fan and will be following his career closely. Thank you so much. Linda and Tom Burkett
Rick:
I think it is safe to say that yours was the greatest performance inside this 90 year old church - ever – unless there was a miracle that occurred on the premises that I don’t know about! You brought down the house and made the evening for a lot of good (and screaming) young kids and their families. Thanks for making it happen and being a part of the annual tree lighting.
Larry Clark
Hi Rick,
No thank you for everything....that was truly and amazing show you did....other than your belt falling off... LOL :)....that was funny but you were so professional that you still kept going...just the way of show business...Everyone loved you, and this morning my dad called me again to talk about how much he liked you and wanted to know where I found you! My sister was so moved with the song "Don't Cry Daddy" that she couldn't' stop talking about it...and when I downloaded it on the computer she kept watching it...that's her favorite song (guess you could tell ha) Oh, and she also said that she would like to hire you sometime this summer for my dads/ family reunion party...she wasn't sure which one .Anyway thank you again so much and hope we do still keep in touch..I love watching you I think your great!
Luv Ya!
Rosemary
Hi Rick,
Thank you for making my father's 70th/retirement last summer so memorable. He was incredibly touched and thrilled with his ride with you and has shared photos & videos with friends/relatives all over the world. I hope we have another opportunity to see you perform in the future.
Best of luck with your Elvis gigs!
Teresa
Was COMPLETELY overwhelmed by how FANTASTIC Rick was!!! Seriously made my mom's 60th birthday celebration extra special. I have never seen her have so much fun! All the guests kept commenting how great he was and how fun it was to take pictures with him and the pink cadillac. Thanks again Rick!!! You ROCK....:)
Rick,
Thank you so much for making my mom's birthday one she will never forget!!! My sister and I appreciate how professional you and your company were and how very easy you are to do business with. It is clear that you love what you are doing and I'm so glad that we chose you to share your talent with us today. The whole family will be talking about this day for quite some time to come, and whether they want one or not everyone we come in contact with will be instructed who they need to go for the best Elvis impersonator we've ever seen!! (My only regret is that no one had a camera handy when my dog decided to get some lovin'
from Elvis too!!) Thanks again!
Kelley Lehr
Hi Rick & Bobbie,
I wanted to thank you again for a very special day yesterday! To be a part of your float was an honor & experience we will never forget! Shayna had so much fun being in your caddy & loved handing you your scarves. I don't think her smile could have been any bigger! You both were so kind to her & made her feel warm & welcome. And personally, I loved watching you Rick.you were spectacular & drew the crowd right in.& Bobbie.I so enjoyed being with you & talking in the car.& seeing Shayna that happy.I couldn't have asked for more!
EXCEEDED OUR EXPECTATIONS!!! Rick ELVIS Torres Performance was Professional form Beginning to End. From the time I inquired first about Ricks services, until the Drive off in the Pink Caddy, (caddie cruise made people feel like celebrities,very special memory) Rick exceeded all my Expectations. My Family and Friends are still talking bout the Fun and Exciting performance from Rick(2weeks Later). The Memories will be apart of my Mother, Aunt, and True Elvis Fans For the rest of there lives. I feel the Main difference that separates Ricks performance, from others is the Detail and attention he gave our family, he never maid us feel he was in a "hurry" or "he didn't have time" he gave his time. Just like Elvis he Left us wanting more... a true professional and King. TCB Thanks Again Rick, I hope I can see another performance some time, your Kicks Really Impressed alot of us guys awesome!!.

Just like Elvis he Left us wanting more... a true professional and King. TCB Thanks Again Rick, I hope I can see another performance some time, your Kicks Really Impressed alot of us guys awesome!!. Great to have meet you.. TCB, P.S. My family plans on following you so just a heads up you have More Fans Ready to follow and support!!
ELVIS - you were the hit of the party. FREAKIN Awesome is all I can say. My husband's 40th will be talked about for a long long time! My house was transformed into a Las Vegas casino in less than 4 hours complete with gambling tables, cocktail waitresses, and Vegas showgirls, but it would not have been complete without ELVIS and your fabulous performance along with the ride in the pink cadillac.
I hope we weren't too much for you, but we all took the opportunity to party without our children and let our hair down and have FUN!!
Thanks again and we ALL will highly recommend you for future events.

Thanks for making my mom's birthday party so much fun. You were great. My mom really, really enjoyed herself. She's a huge Elvis fan who has seen many impersonators and said you were the best. I really appreciate your professionalism and attention to detail (quick to call back, on time, dependable). I look forward to watching you perform again. Thanks again for going above and beyond to make our guests feel special.
My husband and I had a traditional wedding, but what he REALLY wanted was an Elvis wedding. What better way to surprise him than with a 10th wedding anniversary renewal of vows with the most AMAZING Elvis ever. Rick Torres made the planning of my surprise an absolute pleasure. He was so accommodating, so enthusiastic and so professional. He blew us away on the day of the event, surpassing all my expectations. A ride in a pink cadillac with rocking Elvis tunes was an absolute blast! We seriously can't wait for the next special occasion so we can use King Creole Entertainment again! Thanks to YOU! We had such an amazing time and I seriously can't believe my Husband had NO CLUE until the very end. You should hear him telling the story to everyone we know. :) Laura Caistor
Rick;
Thank you for a wonderful concert. You charmed people out of their socks. It isn’t often that you can hear Elvis sing gospel songs. We look forward to our next booking.

Thank you also Rick! Everyone had a great time. I look forward to doing it again. I will be touch. Sincerely,Andrew Peceimer
Dear Rick,
Thank you, thank you, thank you, ever so, for the GREAT pleasure of seeing your INCREDIBLE Elvis performance at our event. From the moment you arrived in your amazing car, it was so exciting and amazing to see that you look so much like Elvis or his young son, almost identical in appearance and mannerisms!
Your huge talent and charisma drove the crowd wild, and as you predicted, we begged you to stay and sing more songs and pose for photographs! Your great singing voice and authentic Elvis costumes would make "The King" proud, and between your Elvis "moves" and comments and your charming ability to engage everyone there, the atmosphere was electric and the crowd went wild! You have really captured Elvis's sexy, handsome charm, and the girls were swooning and the guys wanted to be you!
I have planned events for government commissions, the Junior League, corporations and private parties, and you are the first entertainer that I would highly recommend for every single venue. Your professionalism and ability to read the crowd results in an event that is appropriate, exhilarating and entertaining for all. Our event was work-related, but I see your ability to make an evening event, party or wedding into a truly great and highly memorable occasion!
Again, warmest thanks for a wonderful time! Feel free to use any or all of this letter however you wish in whatever way will help get the word out for you. You can also call on me if you want me to post on other websites where you can attract business. If there is any justice in the world, you will be performing on stage around the U.S.! Take care, Rick, and best of luck to you.

Dear Rick: I wish to thank you for the wonderful performance you gave us yesterday. Jack and his guests enjoyed the time you spent with us; you were great.Also, thank you to your wife for being such a gracious "Priscilla". Sincerely, Jutta Kiel
Rick did an amazing job at our Las Vegas themed client party and vastly exceeded our expectations. His performance really jump started the energy at our event and added authenticity to the Vegas theme. When I returned to work the following morning I had about a dozen emails from clients sharing pictures and videos of their interactions with Rick. We really wanted to provide a memorable experience and Rick was a critical part of the event’s success. Thank you Rick for your wonderful service and your unparalleled professionalism
Dear Rick,
I wanted to take a moment & thank you & Bobbie again for an afternoon that we will never forget! We all loved you & your performance! You have such a passion & love for what you do. Linda & I felt that energy from the moment you stepped out of your car. Not only are you an amazing performer, but you have a genuineness about you that makes all of your guests feel special. The way you’ve embraced the Elvis spirit & the way you were with Shayna, went above & beyond what I had imagined. And I applaud your professionalism. You remembered everything about Shayna, you were early in your arrival & that was quite the distance to drive! You even followed up with a thank you to Linda the very next day. From start to finish, this entire experience has been a pleasure! And for Shayna…she was in “Elvis Wonderland”! She has Elvis pictures & posters in her room, an Elvis collectible doll, and a wonderful book about Elvis so you can only imagine how thrilled she was to see you walking towards her!
Rick you are a class act! We absolutely loved you and Bobbi and your performance. I have already
gone online to tell the world that they need to invite Rick Torres as Elvis to their next party. Shayna is just over the moon about riding in the pink caddy for the parade!Her family, including myself,will be there cheering all of you on. So please let us know the details of the event.
Rick we loved having you in our home and everyone there thoroughly enjoyed Elvis. We also wanted you to know that your sincerity and genuine desire to please everyone came through loud and clear. You made
that child's day giving Shayna memories to last a lifetime! We love you Rick!
Sending gratitude and best wishes,
Linda Hurwicz
Hello Rick:
Yes, you were fantastic in every way.My husband said he would never forget his party.You made it happen for us. I am only sorry that
we did not book you for longer.That is the only complaint from our
guest.Your performance left all us speechless.You were on time
and taking my husband and a few guests, including my 3 yr. old grand
daughter for a ride in your pink Caddy was fantastic.It is almost 1 month that you came to our home and my grand-daughter still talks
about it. She now is learning some new words on the songs you sing.
Please, if you need a reference, please give your potential customer's
my contact information and I will tell them what a fantastic job you did.
Remember,we had around 150 guests,including the children and we

I am still ALL SHOOK UP.. Best Elvis friendly entertainer.. My daughter was just in awwwww.. The best & would highly recommend. Able to give us his time.. Words just can’t describe the entertainment for the 50s party……
AWESOMEEEEEEE…..
Thank you
Hi Rick, I just wanted to Thank you for the fabulous performance. Thank you so much for making my Mom's Birthday that much more special. Victoria Ernst
Great performer. Uncanny as Elvis. Great interaction with audience. Arrived fully prepared with self-contained sound system. Client gets to choose which songs and costume he will wear. The costumes are very authentic replicas of those actually worn by Elvis. His spot-on performance made many ladies in the audience swoon.
Absolutely awesome. Rick was a true entertainer. He really made contact with the guests. After the party, everyone commented on how personable he was and how entertained they were with his show. From a planner's perspective, Rick was very agreeable with everything we had asked for and was willing to go the extra mile. He was very punctual and appeared EXACTLY at the time he said he was going to appear.
He was simply FANTASTIC!!!! Because of some serious traffic problems he was quite late but couldn't have been nicer, more accommodating and generous with his time and "perks". A true gentlemen - SO much fun - my guests got totally engaged with the music and dancing. This was a MEMORABLE, fun, crazy, wonderful evening and memory. LOVE you Elvis (ie: Rick) jaquie Bosch
Hi Rick,
We had a great time and you're a real hit. My Mom was really surprised and pleased. She never had expected for you to make an appearance like that. Monica, my wife's niece, commented that you had also made an appearance at the place she works and that you were absolutely awesome. Thanks again.
Jas
Hi Rick, Just wanted to let you know how much everyone loved your performance at the shower. My daughter really ,really loved it. They talked about how great it was for hours! I'll let everyone know I have a great elvis if they want to hire one. Loved the car ride too! Thank you sooo much for making the party so enjoyable. Ellen Cardenas
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.
Rick is truly the best Elvis Impersonator any of us has ever seen! He performed for our parents’ 50th Anniversary Party, and he worked the entire crowd with his impressive voice and awesome dancing throughout the show. He also held a wedding renewal ceremony for our parents during his performance, and gave them personalized scarves, gold Elvis sunglass, and a certificate! After the show, he posed for every photo request by our guests! Finally, he took our family for the pink Cadillac cruise! He is the best performer ever!
When I contacted Rick/ Elvis for my event, he got back to me right away. He had always kept in contact with me and assured me my party was going to be great. Rick Torres (Elvis) is awesome!!! I highly recommend him!!! He had the crowd going! he kept in character the whole time. Higher Rick Torres for your party, you will NOT regret it!!!
Hi Rick,
What a day yesterday must have been for you with so many shows! I daresay that the spectacular, dynamic performance for the Museum folks had to be the best of the day, though. Thank you so much for fitting us into your busy schedule. I tell you, that Pink Caddy also grows on a person after a while! Give it some extra octane gas for me. After you left a number of folks shared their responses to your performance - all smiles, bright and happy folks and stories. You really made a difference there last night. Thanks also for helping us out with budget concerns. That makes a big difference for a Museum such as ours that's growing right now. Our Elvis! exhibit is going to be winding down now, but the memories you created will always last. Keep up that high energy channeling, and please don't be a stranger to us. Liz Cohee @ petaluma Historical Museum Petaluma California
Our event with Elvis(Rick Torres) was wonderful. It was better than I anticipated. He's a great Elvis impersonator and I've seen quite a few in Las Vegas. He's a great performer, good singer. The pink caddy was the best! I would definitely hire him again. Sherry Arce
Elvis you had us all in a TRANCE!! The Retiree had a blast and so did all of us guests. You made ELVIS seem like he never left. You brought the chills to our spines and SMILES TO OUR FACES!! Thank you for a TERRIFIC TIME!!
Rick:
Your show was wonderful and everyone liked your perfornances except one person (who does not
even know who was Elvis was) and obviously that does not count. I enjoyed your hospitality and flexibility.
Thanks S Mahawar
Thank you Rick for an exciting and entertaining Saturday on June 12th in Alameda. Doubt that Elvis himself could have made the afternoon any better. I may have embarrassed myself and/or my family, but I'd do it all over again - in a flash. You have added to my Lasting Memories. I'm all shook-up! Thank you....Thank you very much! You are fantastic! Virginia Matheney
Hi Elvis!
The surprise for our boss worked out perfectly! We knew she was expecting a surprise, but she sure wasn’t expecting ELVIS and his awesome sound system! Everyone really enjoyed your upbeat performance and personality. The Pink Caddy car ride around the parking lot was a really nice touch and it was fun for participants and onlookers alike. We definitely recommend you for any occasion!
Thank you again!
Kathryn Umali @ PrimePay Phone:650.358.4555
Thanks so much Rick!
My sister keeps calling to tell me how amazing your performance was and that it was the best surprise ever. I will gladly rate your performance as A+++! Cristina Harman
Rick,
Thank you for coming to our family bbq and singing to my mom. YOU. WERE. AWESOME!!!!!! Worth every penny and more. Quite honestly, you helped make the best day our family has had together in….well, forever.Not only are you an amazing performer, but you are SO charming and funny.My entire family fell in love with you!You are a class act all the way and I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone and everyone (in fact,that’s what I’ve been doing!).Take care and keep on gyrating,Debra
Hi Rick,
Thank you for a great performance!! Yes, Seamus was definitely surprised and even the younger people at the party were infatuated! Thank you....... Thank you very much. You're definitley a TEN! THANKS again.
Hi Rick,
You were a smash hit. Thanks for being available on such short call. I am happy with how it all turned out. You have all the moves, grooves, and shakin’ going on.....you know what I mean, baby? Thank you, Elvis, for the excitement and good fun -- Robin S., Santa Clara, CA.
Make no mistake, this is Elvis! A great addition to our parade!
My friends and I LOVED the show. My best Friday night ever!
Good job .the kids really got into it
Rick was nothing short of fabulous at our grammar school's 50's family sock hop dance -- he charmed the kids and put on an incredible performance that took us all back in time. He makes you feel that Elvis does live on!
Absolutely Fabulous!
Elvis came to family 50's night for Vannoy Elementary School. The girls had a blast and were screaming over him. My 10 yr old daughter was thrilled when she got a scarf he was wearing (as were other girls/boys that got one). My 7 year old daughter didn't want to go, said she didn't like Elvis, but by the end of the night she was a fan. Lots of fun and great entertainment.
Absolutely terrific! Our Vannoy Elementary School Parent Club hired Rick Torres to do an Elvis Show and DJ a School Family Dance. Everyone had so much fun! Funny to see all the kids screaming with excitement...we all LOVED the show!
Rick did a great job entertaining and making sure everyone (3 generations of folks) had a great time. Our event was family oriented and his performance fit the situation perfectly!
Elvis put together an amazing performance for my kids' elementary school 50's Dance Party. The kids loved his personal interaction with them, and the adults loved his montage of Elvis songs. His costume, set, props & stage lighting was awesome... A high-energy show that did not disappoint! Plus he made sure everyone who wanted a picture with Elvis after the show got one. A true professional. My family would love to see the show again!
It doesn't get any better than this! Our School hired Rick Torres to perform an Elvis Tribute, as well as, DJ a 50's themed dance! He rocked! He arrived early, was 110% professional and prepared, gave us an above and beyond performance, and had a great "can do" attitude. He LOVES what he does and it shows! Our students and parents were thoroughly entertained and delighted! We can't wait to have him back!
Our event was a sock hop at my grand daughters elementary school. It was an incredible show and the kids loved it. I felt like I was at a Elvis concert...The girls were screaming and loving all the interaction Elvis did with the kids.. Pictures before and after the show. One of my best evenings. Thank you Elvis...
Hi,
Our "Elvis" experience was amazing! It was a total blast to watch "Elvis" with my 60 year old Mom.. she was completely overwhelmed. Rick was great.. he was authentic, funny, patient, flexable, and a great singer to boot! He was great to work with and made himself very available for questions and such before the event. I would hire him again and definitely recommend him to my friends and family. Thanks RICK!!

Rick was an excellent performer. He performed for my Mom's 75th birthday. She loved him. She said he was better than any Elvis impersonator she ever saw in Las Vegas. He sounded alot like the real Elvis. She said it was the best birthday she ever had. He picked her up from a restaurant in a pink cadillac and drove her home, singing all the way and then began the show after arriving at her house. He was awesome and we will definitely hire him again.
This was a great party that has no equal. Rick was very entertaining. We have actually been considering a casino Night and will be calling Rick Torres to perform.
Rick went to my friend's 3rd grade classroom to sing her a Happy Birthday. He was great! The kids LOVED him and it was a wonderful surprise that left her "all shook up". He kissed one little girl's hand and after he left, he told my friend that she wouldn't wash that hand again!
My wife loved the surprise we gave her. Elvis in his Pink Cadillac. What an incredible performance! Also, the very cool sound system to the beautiful
pink Cadillac he showed up in just set for the perfect appearance. My wife
just came from Vegas and saw a few Elvis impersonators there, she said he
was better.
I called Rick with 1 days notice after hearing about his fantastic performance in Visalia from a mutual friend who attended the performance. Rick has got to be the best Elvis I have ever seen!! He also, helped me pick the suit, songs, scarf color, and illustration for the scarf. You can see by the Elvis Quickie service which is the minimum performance offered, that he takes alot into consideration to creating a special experience for you. You really can feel that Elvis show concert feeling! I can only imagine what a tribute show through them would feel like. We are actually considering it for a family reunion next year.
It certainly is my pleasure to leave another feedback. We all loved the performance! We are booking another performance with him for august.My wife Cant wait so see another performance.
Elvis Impersonator Rick Torres performed our wedding ceremony and a few songs and it was the highlight or the vevening, and is the subject most perople who went to our wedding talk about. Without a doubt the excellent choice for us! No other Elvis Impersonators I looked at prior to booking him impressed me like he did.
Fantastic Elvis performed at our party, the Hawaiian dance group we hired said knew Rick Torres by reputation! We have seen him perform before the said! You got the Best Elvis around!! They wanted to perform with him Rick during a song ,and they performed Rock a hula and Blue Hawaii. Rick is very good and we just hope he is available to do a show for us this summer.
Rick, I mean Elvis, you were wonderful! Thank you so much. I will definitely keep you on the top of the list for future parties. You were a huge hit!! I am thinking a bigger show next time. Thank you!!
I have been trying to get around to sending this testimonial for some time and I just want to express my deepest thanks to Rick for his electrifying performance. We really loved having him and can wait to see this performance in the movie he will be premiering at theatres! Very Exciting time!!
OMG Rick!
I am glad to leave this testimonial on this site as well and thank you for your wonderful performance. Professor Hammond was barely able to finish class, he was so blown away and pleased ! He just kept grinning and laughing. Everybody in class kept saying how great your performance was and how well you sang and danced. I am pretty sure everyone on campus will be talking about this for weeks!Really appreciate how accommodating you were for us. Got to say that is a cool pink caddy!!!!Thank you so much!
Fantastic 3 show performance and 3 costume changes for the shows too. It was enjoyed by all the employees who attended and the pictures were circulated for a month! We are considering using the services of Rick Torres and his new cool pink Cadillac for future events. Saw the CBS special! Fantastic! Look forward to your feature in the movie you will be in soon!
Hey the guy is phenomenal! He just single handed made our party. We would have him at any event we could just to hang out with him. He is a super cool guy and a great entertainer. The best Elvis Impersonator I have seen. I have seen a few here in my area, and they shy in comparison.
There is so many favorable testimonials on his site now but Im sure there is room for more. He was worth every penny, so worth it we felt the need to give him a little more when he left. He performed a fun wedding renewal ceremony, and afterward gave them a great renewal certificate!! His entire presentation from himself to the beautiful pink Cadillac he showed up in was all Elvis!!! It was a amazing experience having him at our get together.
Rick was spectacular!!! His Pink Caddy was really cool too!!! The wedding renewal was so special and everyone really loved the whole service. We wanted him to stay, but his public still needed him elsewhere, so he had to leave the building! He will be back as we are looking to have him again for my moms birthday.
Oh Wow what a trip we were just talking about the Elvis appearance Rick gave us a few years back and also we were thinking about having our wedding vows renewed. He was the best, is the best, and soon to be the best again in a few months! Rick Torres is an Exceptional Entertainer, and Everyone should use his services!
Just left you one on another site but here it is again!!Rick you did it!! WE just did not know how this was going to play out at our ceremony with an Elvis Officiate. You were both Elvis and no Cheese! The response was like a bit of quiet giggles, and whispered comments at first, but when you started the ceremony you were both Elvis and serious. It was so believable that people really responded to your words I could see it. Like it was really Elvis it was pretty cool, and I can admit now very unexpected. I actually started crying it was so cool. We love you and thank you for the best day ever.
He would hire Bay area Elvis Impersonator Rick Torres again in a heartbeat! He is just so incredible to watch in person. His videos are good but in person thats a real treat. He is the best! Hire him! The Pink Caddy is real cool!! We saw Rick on CBS last friday with his new caddy!
The highlight of the evening was the performance provided by Rick Torres of King Creole Entertainment!! We like him so much tha twe booked again in april. We cant wait to see the pink caddy!
Fantastic Service and Performance! Rick knows his stuff! We hope to see him for another event when he is performing at Bella vineyards in Healdsburg 2-13 and 14 valentines weekend
Bay Area’s #1 Elvis Rick Torres was very accommodating, and a Very Very Very Talented Gentleman. He was a last minute idea for a birthday/Christmas gift, and we still talk about it at dinner or when we hear an Elvis song or see an Elvis movie. If I had a choice between any Elvis Impersonator in the bay area or beyond, I would pick Rick Torres without question.
I wanted Rick come to a birthday party for myself and two friends. He has strict instructions that he did not know anybody but was in complete costume, and just happen to be in this bar. No singing other than a few notes without music. He said he was staying in the hotel and just came from a show. It was a private party so he asked if it was ok if he could stay or is there another place to have a drink close by, and was gesturing like he was leaving. That was the clincher. Everyone welcomed him bought him a few drinks and he left buzzed! His assist drove him home. Rick your the coolest!
The decision was made at short notice, We almost went with another Elvis entertainer, but we were so pleased that Rick Torres was able to free up the time to perform at our Vegas Homecoming. Many of the Kids took pictures with him and were impressed with the performance. To all who met him He was Elvis! From all the options seen we were really hoping he was available.
Rick Torres has a very nice looking hum hum in those 68 leather jeans!!! LOL! Had to say that again! Fantastic performance, and just like the King. We will definitely have him back next year. He is such a dynamic entertainer! Everyone who is looking for an Elvis Impersonator you need to stop right here. Looking forward to your appearance on CBS 5 on Feb. 12th
Our residents enjoyed the whole performance, from his suit to songs, energy and was very friendly with everyone. Our residents who received the scarves from him were so happy! There were many smiles for sure. He did a great job...loved his sound! We would love to hire him again for future events. Thanks again.
All My Sis kept talking about is how The best Elvis in the Bay Rick Torres sang to her, kissed her, flirted with her, etc. What a ridiculously good time!! It is my pleasure to send this testimonial! We talked about it all night, and morning too, when my sister woke me up to relive it all over again as she was pulling out all her old Elvis records! People in the restaurant were all commenting about how true to life the performance was! A band was performing in the next room band said something to us when we walked over there to dance afterwards! The performance was much more than I expected. Thank you forever! Margarite Avendano
I was so nervous how this would play out. I wanted it to be so special, and Rick did a incredible job of seeping it very top secret. He is just nothing short of the best I have ever seen. He has it on any of the Elvis I look at on this site. We will be watching him on CBS on Feb. 12th at 7pm to watch him do his stuff again!! Take care Rick. We love the Pink Caddy service you were telling us about and We were thinking it would be fun to go to the airport in sept in it and have you pick us up.We will talk more later.
I hired Rick/Elvis to pretend he was just one of the guest at my Halloween party. People were just drawn to him even though he was just one of the guest as far as they knew. He was totally in character! I was laughing as they looked him over and wondered where the heck did he rent that incredible Elvis Suit! The scene was just classic! All of a sudden his assistant pushes the high powered sound system and the show begins! He just blows the roof off! Quite a few people afterward said he was so realistic looking the just kept wanting to stand next to him and look at him. It was a real cool idea.
Bay Area's #1 Elvis Impersonator Rick Torres/Wedding officiate/Awesome Entertainer! literally single handed took our Vegas party and made it pop! He has no equal in the great services he offers, and it is my pleasure to give him what will be testimonial number 3. I see he has now added the Pink Cadillac to his hit parade. He has more great services than any entertainment service in the Bay Area. The bay area’s finest, and We will be using the Pink Caddy Cruise service very soon! I got to see this for myself!
We have used Bay Area's #1 Elvis Impersonator Rick Torres for about 8 shows in the last 5 years. He has secured a place in the hearts of all my friends as well as my husband and myself. He has no shortage of energy, and throws his heart into every show. I was on my way home one day and heart him on the radio on 98.5 kfox with Greg kihn, and I was "Oh My god that my Elvis!" He is also an Excellent D.J. and throws a great Karaoke party! Good luck with the CBS program Rick! We will be watching you!
Ricks Service was just the best. I just got an email from him that he will be doing a piece on CBS on the February 12 at 7pm. I have it on tevo just to make sure I don’t miss it! He is the best! The Pink Caddy Cruise looks like a great anniversary gift!

The “Ultimate Elvis Tribute Package” show will require an area no smaller than 30 foot wide by 12 foot deep to accommodate the stage lighting Vertical Signs. It will also require at least 2 power outlets on different circuits. Basic Elvis Tribute and Deluxe Elvis Tribute shows or Mini Tributes can be performed in a room as small as 10’ by 20’ with 2 power outlets on different circuits. Elvis Singing Telegrams AKA 20 minute “Elvis Quickie” performances can be in any small office or room self powered system, and no preparation required.
There is no Set times. I Can come in and perform any length show from my singing telegram aka “The Elvis Quickie” that last 13 minutes of performance time, to my largest tribute show aka “The Ultimate Elvis Tribute” that are generally 1 hour. No breaks…. For the singing telegrams I use a self powered 1000 watt sound system. It is like no system you have ever see because its concept and design was created by me. It is like a set-up sound system with no set-up. It also runs on its own power source for surprise events and I have a wireless microphone that works at distances of 30 feet away from the unit.
I have a list of songs I perform which is very extensive. You will be able to pick the songs you want me to perform or I can arrange a show for you. All songs can me viewed and some are set to hear examples of songs performed under “Pick Songs” on my main site.
Elvis has by far been a very big Influence on me. It seems every time I turn around I hear a new song. Just like he is still out there performing. Thre are not many others who have, but there are a few performers who seem to that same one of a kind appeal.Just not on the same scale.
Performance Space and power requirement are dictated by type of performance needed.
