Amazing wedding night!

From the moment my husband and I booked Chris we were impressed by his communication. Chris is very detail oriented and had us answer questionnaires that truly led to such an amazing experience. We highly recommend him.
My husband and both our families and friends raved on how fun the night was. Chris kept everyone on the dance floor and entertained throughout the entire night.
My husband and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire Chris again for another event.

Wedding DJ

Wow, wow, wow....DJ Chris is amazing!!! We used him for our wedding of approx. 170 guests in the berkshires. We were highly impressed with DJ Chris after our first video call with him where we learned that he was much more than just a DJ. He takes on the role of MC/coordinator for the entire event, ensuring the timeline of events is exactly as you picture and assists in making sure things flow seamlessly including communicating between vendors if needed. He is extremely professional, while also being very chill and easy to bounce ideas off of in order to reach your perfect vision for the evening. He completely customizes his music to each individual's interests, and does a great job in asking about details that I did not even think of. I would highly recommend DJ Chris!

The whole perfect-DJ package :)

Chris DJ'ed and provided lights/drapery for my partner's and my commitment ceremony on 8/24/24. From the very first intro phone call, Chris was awesome. So kind, clear in his communication, and passionate about helping us get the experience we wanted. We were planning a few unconventional things, and he was excited about helping us make it all happen. Music/Dancing was a big deal for me when planning, and he took the time to understand me, my partner, and our guests. On the day of our party, he was the perfect professional, and (again) so kind. Several guests (and our photographer) went out of their way to find me and comment on how good he was in some way—how well mic'ed the ceremony was, how fun the dancing was all night, how creative the cocktail music was, and how cool some of his special touches were. One guest asked me for his contact info, for her friend's upcoming wedding. With his help with perfect music and beautiful ambiance, Chris was an essential piece in making the atmosphere perfect from start to finish. We're so incredibly grateful and can't recommend him enough! (Photos from Novella Photography.)
