John Chrisitan did an amazing job at my wedding!!! To say "thank you" is absolutely not enough.

From the beginning my husband and I knew we wanted a band and after we met with Johnny, he made our lives so easy. Johnny came to our house to show us videos and ideas of what we could do for our big day. His level of professionalism and lightheartedness was the perfect combination. Due to this, we had a great relationship with him through the whole process and when it came time for our Big Day, he was there every step of the way.

Probably our most favorite service that Johnny provided was the jazz trio during our cocktail hour. That just added a level of sofistication that none of my other friends' weddings had. It was awesome!!!

Johnny was a great MC and the band was out of this world!! The girls sounded just like the professional artists in the songs and they truly have a set of pipes on them. American Idol watch out - these girls are talented! The band had a great mix of songs so the room was dancing all night long. Also, at the end of the night Johnny DJ'ed some of the popular Top 40 pop songs during the "after party" portion of the evening. Talk about FULL SERVICE vendor!

All in all, John Christian Entertainment is the way to go. If you're looking for the bang for your buck, look no further!! John Christian Entertainment is your one stop shop for your event's music. I would absolutely recommend his services to any bride-to-be!

John Christian was my wedding band 25 years ago and I had the pleasure of having him DJ our 25th anniversary this past September. Having used him in both capacities, I can say that either choice is great. I love the sound of a live band and especially with a horn section. John is extremely helpful in making all the needed decisions when it comes to music selection. Both he and his band are very talented musicians who can play a variety of music from oldies to current pop. They keep the crowd dancing all night long! As a DJ, his services are just as impeccable as the band. I would highly recommend using John Christian Entertainment in whatever capacity serves your needs, band or DJ.

John Christian Entertainment played my wedding 5 years ago. They were fantastic! They played the right music for each part of the night. Their dinner and cocktail music was very classy and jazzy and the dance music had everyone up on the floor. The singers were great and the whole band sounded better than a CD. They played something for everyone. John even play for my church service. Great band!
