So Much Love and the Best Entertainment!

We cannot rave enough about our experience with Chris as our DJ! He was absolutely phenomenal at our wedding in February. From the very start, the planning process was seamless—Chris is incredibly attentive, kind, and truly cares about his couples.

Throughout the night, we received endless compliments from our guests about his music choices, from the perfect cocktail hour and dinner selections to the incredible dance floor energy. He has an amazing ability to read the crowd, keeping the party going while also allowing for natural breaks so everyone could recharge. Not to mention, he had some fun surprises up his sleeve that made the night even more special!

Chris clearly loves what he does, and his passion for music—and for celebrating love—shines through in every detail. He made our wedding unforgettable, and we are beyond grateful for the experience he created for us and our guests.

Thank you, Chris, for making our day so memorable!

Sarah Was Amazing!!

The whole process of hiring our DJ was super easy and completely stress free. Sarah was absolutely amazing during the entire process. We didn't know where to begin, but she helped guide us through all the steps giving us ideas of songs/music, listening to us to find our style and the style of our wedding and going out of the way to find the music we wanted. Before the day of she sent a playlist of our key songs and accommodated any request we had for changes. The music for the wedding, the cocktail hour, dinner and the reception was all perfect! We received so many compliments on how fun our reception was which, at least in part, we owe a huge thanks that to Sarah for that. Over six months later we are still hearing compliments like it was the most fun wedding they've ever attended.

Sarah has such a wonder personality, so happy and positive, you can tell she really loves what she does! She was also very familiar with venue and coordinated perfectly with all the other vendors. We would highly recommend her to anyone!

Wow. Just wow.

We were incredibly lucky to have Chris DJ for our wedding. He was incredibly communicative and considerate of our requests, made excellent suggestions about playlist and event flow, and made himself available for any questions that we had. He meticulously planned out every aspect of his performance and made us absolutely confident in him well before the day of our event. During the wedding he read the crowd perfectly and tuned the playlist accordingly, helped direct wayward guests to where they should be, and kept the whole event on track. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Best DJ in the Game!

Sarah is beyond a bride and groom's dream DJ! If you're looking for an incredible musical and host experience, look no further than Birkett Entertainment. Sarah was excellent from our first meeting to our wedding day. Not to mention picked up on our vibe from the first meeting! She not only nailed our ambiance, she far exceeded it. I cannot thank her enough for everything!

Sarah Birkett is awesome!

Sarah Birkett was awesome! We had 2 weddings within 4 months of each other. We had a different DJ at wedding #1 by the wedding venue vs wedding #2 by Sarah Birkett but when I compare DJ #1 to Sarah on a scale of 1 to 10, they were probably a 4... maybe a 5. SARAH IS A 10! Sarah went above and beyond at wedding #2. She has set my expectation so high that I don't know if I would ever hire a different DJ. She was so easy and fun to work with, she listened, and did things I would not have expected her to do but it was very much appreciated. Something as simple as getting appetizers for the bride and groom after the ceremony so they could have a little to eat before all the pictures. Getting my wife and I something to drink while we waited on pictures. She kept things moving during the reception, coordinated when tables were to get up to get food, etc... All things I would have not expected from a DJ but those small things allow me to easily rate her a 10 out of 10!

If you want the best experience, I would recommend hiring Sarah Birkett, (https://www.birkettentertainment.com/) along with Surreal Sister photography (https://www.surrealsister.com/). They worked really well together and their services were highly appreciated.

There to keep the party going!

Sarah was DJing a wedding I photographed in October and she had the entire dancefloor FULL ALL NIGHT! She really read the guests and kept them out there dancing. Sarah even helped the group when they didn't know a dance too well. I know she made my job even more fun because I was dancing alongside everyone. Sarah is amazing, super sweet and I would HIGHLY recommend her and Birkett Entertainment!

Sarah is amazing

Sarah was INCREDIBLE!!! From start to finish, she was absolutely amazing. About a month before our wedding we met with Sarah to go over what our vision was for our day. She was incredibly welcoming and made us feel excited for our big day. She made a document outlining music for every aspect of the day and gave us great suggestions for things we hadn't thought about. A few days before the wedding I wanted to make some changes and she was very responsive via email and text. My one request was to have a packed dance floor and she really came through with that! Everyone was dancing the night away and there was never a dull moment. She helped make the night flow seamlessly with toasts, special dances, and other activities we had incorporated into our timeline. Not only was she an incredible DJ/MC, she truly took the time to make sure my husband and I were having a good time. During photos she came to check on us and see if we needed food or drinks, she asked if we had any special requests throughout the night, and she was able to alter the timeline to make sure we were able to visit with everyone during the dinner service. I have nothing but amazing things to say about her and I highly recommend her for any event!
