Perfection!

I am so incredibly happy that I hired Chris for my wedding! He was so much fun to work with and went above and beyond to make our wedding the best day of our lives! I hired Chris because of his perfect reviews online and because he has a Portuguese background. My family is Portuguese and I wanted a DJ who would make them feel included. He did absolutely that! My husband and I were so impressed by Chris’ professionalism, organization, attention to detail, communication, and of course, talent! He met with us several times before the wedding over the span of a year and half to get to know us and our music preferences. And OMG all of those meetings and the homework he gave us was SO worth it! His song choices were so on point! I never wanted to leave the dance floor and even told my photographer that I no longer wanted late night pictures because I just wanted to dance the night away. At the beginning of the night, not many people were dancing because it was beautiful weather and we had 2 patios with extra activities for people to do. Once I convinced all of our friends to return to the dance floor, Chris paid attention to who was dancing and chose the perfect songs to keep everyone on the dance floor for the rest of the night. He was so good at reading the room!!! You can tell that Chris has so much knowledge, experience and skill as a DJ. I would hire him again in a heartbeat. My friends even said that they were mad at themselves for not dancing more at the beginning of the night because they were so impressed. I honestly may throw an anniversary party at some point just so I can hire Chris again. I can’t thank you enough Chris! You are amazing at what you do!

Chris is awesome!

Chris was our DJ at our wedding in Newport, RI in June 2021, and let me tell you he did NOT disappoint! He was super detail-oriented leading up to the day, making us feel extremely comfortable and like we were in excellent hands. He also just felt like someone we'd want to hang out with, which made it all the more fun. On the day of, he kept right with our vibe and kept everybody having a good time, young and old! He even had a few surprises up his sleeve throughout the night, which made it extra special. If you're looking for someone fun, organized, professional, and who can keep the party going, Chris is your go-to! Thanks Chris for making our party unforgettable

He kept the evening moving!

Chris was all class. He (and his photographer wife, Nellie) made the evening. His music and the manner in which he directed the evening kept our guest engaged from beginning to end. Absolutely thoughtful worth it and more.

No brained! Danced till we got kicked out

Chris does an amazing job. He is super flexible with how you can meet with him- we had to use FaceTime and phone calls because we live in CT and planned a wedding in RI. He gave us homework that got us thinking, offers playlists to help you brainstorm your own custom list of must have songs. Something I lend to friends as advice now is something Chris asked us for which was 3 specific songs - I’ll let him explain. Long story short our family and friends went wild from the second he started the music and were angry when we had to leave the venue and the wedding was over. We danced nonstop. He feels out the crowd and makes his moves based on the vibes. You won’t be disappointed!!

Best DJ!!!

Where do we begin with Chris! First, he made us feel at ease with the whole process. He gave us a lot of good recommendations on songs for our wedding day and he made the process less stressful. He’s very knowledgeable about what songs will get the crowd moving. He’s also very knowledgeable on lighting for the specific venue. He told us exactly what lighting will work best for our venue and it was absolutely beautiful!! Chris killed it on our wedding day!! I couldn’t believe how literally all the guests were on the dance floor and the guests ranged from kids to older folks. They all had a blast!! Everyone, including myself and my husband, was dancing the night away and it made me so happy to see!! Also, the lighting was just amazing and unlike anything I’ve seen at other weddings I’ve been to. I thought it was so unique. Also, after my husband and I walked out into the reception, Chris invited all our guests to dance with us on our intro song which was super unique!! The day after our wedding we had a brunch with our friends and family and they couldn’t stop talking about how great Chris was and how they hadn’t danced like that in a very long time!! If you’re getting married you need to book Chris ASAP!!! You’re not going to regret it!!

A Night to Remember

What can I say about Chris Saraiva other than he's FANTASTIC! My husband and I felt so comfortable with him from Day One! He is professional and funny at the same time. He guided us throughout the entire process and was there to answer any questions we had. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ! Everyone loved him and the music he plays, he plays to make sure everyone in the room feels involved and incorporated. I have been to many weddings where they play music in a certain genre...where some people love it, while others in the room hate it or are uncomfortable. Chris knows exactly how to play the crowd and get the party started. He wasn't only apart of our wedding day, but the entire process along side his wonderful wife (our photographer) Nelly Saraiva. He made my husband and I feel even more comfortable during our Engagement session...always trying to bring humor into it, because they could tell we were nervous. I think mostly it was me that was nervous. He made it easier for me than I could have imagined, when it came down to picking our music selection. If you're looking for a professional DJ that knows how to bring the life to the party and keep it going all night long, then look no further than Chris Saraiva!!!

Personal, Personable, Perfect!

Chris was absolutely amazing! From ceremony to the final songs at the reception, the whole day felt so personal and customized to our tastes and personalities. Chris did an amazing job of reading the room, getting people up and dancing, and making sure each event went smoothly and was appreciated by all. No moment or detail was lost and everyone had a phenomenal time! Chris took the time to get to know us and truly made the day feel like ours. As performing arts teachers and directors we can be very particular about music...not to mention all of the traditional Greek music we needed for the Greek part of our family! Chris blended all of our needs and requests perfectly into the evening. We could not have been more pleased - he made our special day a dream come true!

Phenomenal !

We can't put into words, how great Chris was at not only our wedding, but through the whole planning process. Talk about someone that truly cares about his clients! We had our wedding at Aldrich Mansion at the beginning of September, and we couldn't have imagined a more perfect day. Chris brought so much energy and you could tell throughout the whole day & night that he had everyone engaged the entire reception. We have received so many compliments from our guests that it was one of the best weddings they have been to.

On top of being a fantastic DJ and host for our wedding, Chris was so calm whenever he was speaking with us throughout the day, which was exactly what we needed during all the chaos brought on by a wedding! It was great to have a vendor at our wedding that feels like a friend you have known for 10 years! HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend Chris!

A true expert

Chris was a true professional from start to finish. I felt as though we were in expert hands during the whole planning process. He had great suggestions and advice for things we wouldn't have otherwise thought of. I didn't want a 'cheesy' DJ, I wanted someone who would listen to our requests and understand our 'vibe' and Chris hit the nail on the head. Everyone of all ages was dancing all night! Would highly recommend!

Chris is amazing

We just had our wedding at the Rosecliff Mansion and we are so happy that we had Chris there! There is a small window for vendors to set up at the Rosecliff because it is a museum during the day. Chris was able to set up quickly and his DJ equipment is set up very nicely. He does not leave cords hanging everywhere, it is very tidy and looks very professional. He did a great job getting our crowd dancing and played a lot of different genres of music. We met with him over the phone (we are from out of state) several times before the wedding. He gave us questionnaires to fill out well in advance of the wedding so that we would not be stressed about music selection when the wedding month came. He took into account everything that we requested be played (or not played) and his transitions were smooth from song to song! He really knows how to get the party going and we were so happy to have him!!

Amazing experience - 100% recommend Chris!

Writing a review on here won't do Chris justice - he was everything we wanted in a DJ and more! Chris was extremely organized throughout the entire planning process and was a true professional. He did a great job improvising and engaging with guests on the dance floor. We 100% recommend Chris!

Do you want your wedding to be memorable?

When we originally hired Chris, we expected to leverage his experience as a DJ and providing uplighting services. What we received in return was so much more, including a wedding planner, confidant, and most importantly a friend.

To say Chris exceeded our expectations would be an understatement. His organization and proactiveness takes the stress out of the months and weeks leading up to your big day. We were also impressed with how available he was for us given our availability during the week was limited to late evenings given our work schedules.

One of our primary goals for our wedding night was to ensure our guests were on the dance floor the entire night. We placed that burden on Chris very limited input on the type of music we wanted and boy did he deliver!! He truly has the range to appease to any type of audience you can imagine!

Chris' value does not end there. Chris takes all the worries and stress out of the wedding day itself. As many people told us leading up to it, the actual day does fly by and you will be pulled in various directions. I explicitly remember asking Chris at one point during dinner what was next and he simply replied, "Don't worry about, go enjoy yourself and I will find you when I need you." I get it, sounds simple right? But I can't tell you how much that meant to us to just let go of everything and focus on enjoying OUR day.

I can't recommend Chris enough...but don't take my word for it. Schedule some time to meet Chris and see for yourself. I guarantee you won't be disappointed!!

Best DJ hands down

Best DJ!!! Chris was polite, professional ,organized , creative, and down right awesome!!! His music selection was based off of our types of music we like as well as the flow and mood of our wedding. My wife and I here all the time how awesome the music and night!! And we couldn’t agree more. I have a few friends getting married in the next couple years and I will try my best to have them go with Chris because I know they will not be let down!! Thanks Chris!!

Amazing DJ! We have been to numerous weddings with Chris as the DJ over the years so when it was our turn to tie the knot we knew who to call. From beginning to end he helped with every little music detail and really kept the party going all night long! We’ve received many compliments about him from our guests since our wedding. Highly recommend Chris, such a great person and outstanding professional.

Rocked it!

Chris was amazing!!! Honestly when my husband and I said we wanted dancing all night, we got it. Chris was so amazing at reading the wedding vibe. Chris did something I’ve never seen at a wedding, after introducing the wedding party he had everyone join on the dance floor and it set the tone for the wedding!! We danced all night! We got married in June, and every time we see someone or all our friends are together they say that our wedding was awesome, because the DJ rocked it!! No one sat! Everyone was on the dance floor! That’s what we told Chris we wanted and he surely delievered! If you’re lucky enough to get Chris to provide your entertainment, Do not hestiate!! You will not be disappointed!!!

Best DJ Alive

Chris was the best DJ. He had the dance floor packed at all times during our reception, and he even surprised us with an awesome treat before my wife and I’s first song. Chris was always available to meet in person or on a video call. He was always punctual and always responded to questions right away. We all now how important follow ups are when planning a wedding. Chris guided on us on finding the right entrance songs for our parents and he came up with great ways to introduce some of the important people in our lives. Chris was always prepared and help create our perfect wedding with his uplighting. I will miss communicating with him while planning our wedding. We would definitely recommend him to any one planning a wedding.

A true professional!

Chris was the DJ at my wedding at the Bohlin in Newport, RI in June. Throughout the entire process, Chris was a true professional - his organization, responsiveness, and knowledge of the industry made the planning the reception extremely stress free for us. He took the time to get to know us by setting up several skype meetings prior to the wedding and assisted with song selections and timelines.
The dance floor was packed all night and we received great feedback from our guests for weeks after the wedding. We can't thank Chris enough, he truly went above and beyond and we would highly recommend him to any couples planning a wedding!

Talented and skilled duo

Let me start off this review by just pointing out what skillful professionals Chris and Nelly are. When my wife and I first planned our wedding we had originally intended to have a destination wedding, but due to unforeseen family health isssues we had to arrange a local wedding in about 3 months. We were so overwhelmed, but with the guidance of Chris and Nelly, everything turned out perfect! Their ideas and suggestions really helped make our wedding what it was. Our family and friends danced all night, and after the wedding many of them called to express how much fun they had. Chris is such a great MC and really understands his crowd and how to get people on the floor. He is very outgoing and I believe people sense his vibe. As for Nelly, We feel like she is truly an artist. Her technique for photography is unreal, and her images are definitely on par with anything you might see in a famous magazine. On our wedding day, it was pouring rain, and we were so worried about where we were going to take pictures and how they would turn out. Nelly really stepped up and eased our concerns and found an amazing place for photos. Chris and Nelly are really a brilliant and talented team and we would recommend them to any couple getting married who wants an exceptionally beautiful wedding.

What an AMAZING night!

The first time we met Chris, we instantly clicked. He was very personable, down to earth, and professional. Chris helped us every step of the way to ensure that we had an incredible evening. Our meetings with Chris were always very productive (not to mention fun). Chris was there to help with any questions we had and offer suggestions, as needed, but he always left the final decision up to us. We had a multi-cultural wedding and Chris did an excellent job keeping the dancefloor packed. We had an AMAZING night and our guests had a great time too. Chris is an excellent MC and Dj; my husband and I are so happy we had Chris as our wedding Dj.

The absolute best DJ

Chris was so helpful in answering all of our questions and he gave us great advice about the wedding planning process in general too not only about the entertainment aspect of the day! All of our guests were a wide variety of ages and the older adults all the way to the little kids at our wedding had a blast on the dance floor!

If you want your wedding to be the wedding of the year, then Chris is the person you want! He makes sure he has all your guests on the dance floor!! He is one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Chris is very organized and personal. He meets with you multiple times before the big day to make sure everything goes smooth sailing.

Couldn't Ask For Anyone Better

From the moment we met with Chris, he couldn’t have been more professional and helpful planning our wedding. He was very detail oriented and met with us multiple times before the big day which helped put our mind at ease. One of the things we liked most about him is his honesty- he told us when our ideas would not work as we envisioned, and advised us against different add-ons that other companies would have pushed for. On the big day, Chris did a great job of keeping us on track and checking in with us periodically. He worked with my husband to organize a surprise dance for me and pulled it off successfully. Once the dance floor opened, it was packed until closing time! We definitely recommend Chris for all events!!!

We couldn’t have asked for a better person to work with when it came to planning the structure of our reception and the the music to keep everyone on the dance floor all night long. Even though we live in a different state than Chris, he was always available to answer our questions and we had multiple phone meetings throughout the planning process to go over logistics. Chris is truly dedicated to ensuring your event goes off without a hitch and does everything he can to go above and beyond your expectations. One of the most frequent compliments we received after our wedding was how great the music was - with many of our guests noting that they had never spent so much time on a dance floor. We can’t thank Chris enough and would highly recommend him for you own wedding / event.

Hi my name is Sasha and I got married on 9-23-17. Our #1 priority when choosing a DJ was to keep our guests up on the dance floor all night! We didn’t have to look far because Chris had DJ’d my sisters wedding in 2011. From that day I knew I wanted Chris as our DJ. So about a month into my engagement I had contacted Chris hoping he had our date available. I was nervous because September being such a popular month I was sure he would have been booked! But sure enough it was his only Saturday in the month still available! As soon as he said he was available I booked him right away! Chris does not treat you as a client, he treats you as a friend. He was always available to give us pointers throughout our wedding planning process. What we loved was he had 3 in person consultations to sit down in his living room and discuss what we invisioned our reception to be. He for sure exceeded our expectations! One unforgettable moment part of our night was when Chris opened up the dance floor for all guest before anything else! This totally prepared my guests they were in for a good time! We highly recommend Chris and if you need a photographer you need to checkout his fiancé Nelly’s work because she is truly amazing. The two of them together make an incredible team and you will be happy you went with them to make your wedding day complete!

WOW, What can we say about Chris that captures what a true blessing it was to have Chris be our DJ. My husband and I could not have been happier with his services. We had some unique circumstances and hurdles to give Chris and he worked with every one of the. First we had lots of different names for our wedding parties as a same sex couple and Chris helped us with figuring out how to announce the "best woman" and "groomsmaids" We were married on my parents farm and he worked hand in hand with my father to work on setup, ways to get electrical to the middle of the field, and did site visits with us several times to plan it all out. Chris is meticulous which was extremely helpful when planning with our caterer and he collaborated with her as well to make the serving seamless with things like the first dances and the cake cutting. We told Chris we wanted songs edited to do a grand entrance and he made it happen. He was honest with us about what we could accomplish which I thought was rare because people often will not be honest with you about your wedding day, and it made the entrances so much better than we even initially planned. When I wanted to do a surprise dance with dancers and specific lighting, Chris just said "Of course, what are you thinking? Lets talk again on the phone." Everything was perfect and on the wedding day people were begging Chris to stay, so much so that they were all collecting money to just pay him without telling my husband and I. Chris is truly the most talented individual and someone I highly recommend for your wedding, or any other event where music, lighting and hosting are talents that you need. We ended up doing the Dj services with the up lighting package and again we could not have been happier! Thank you so much Chris for making our wedding day more than what we could have imagined. -Stephen and Justin

Chris Saraiva did an awesome job at our wedding. My husband and I did not have much time to pick out songs as we run a business and we were in our busy season. We had all faith in him after our first meeting. What a kind man and musically intelligent. I would highly recommend him for any event. Our friends and family are still raving about our wedding and what a beautiful night it was. My 78 year old Aunt never danced so much in her life!

We were referred to Chris by a family member. We went 100% on their advice. We know why he came so highly recommended.
From the first communication, up until even now, Chris has a professional. He is kind and honest and thoughtful and good at what he does. He is a wonderful person to work with.
We met with Chris three times prior to our wedding. Each time he was energetic and had out of the box ideas that made our wedding unique. He offered his expertise and customized our wedding to make it reflect our individual personalities. The night of the wedding we had roughly 200 guests. I don't know how he did it, but for the entirety of our wedding, Chris had just about all of those guests up and dancing up a storm. The music was upbeat when it needed to be upbeat and he threw in some slower stuff when he felt we needed it. It was generational - we had both our young and older dancing and enjoying themselves. We all had an awesome time.
We also used the uplighting that Chris has to offer. I probably will not forget the very moment that all of my guests were all dancing and the beat dropped and the lights dropped and changed to purple! Everyone kind of screamed and got even more pumped it. The vibe was awesome and it was really all because of Chris.
I am going to describe Chris as my sister in law described him to me when she was recommending him...she said "I have no doubt in my mind he will throw you an absolute bender." That is what we wanted - a high energy wedding with a ton of dancing - and that is exactly what we got with Chris. He was so much fun, he is so good at what he does, he is just the best guy for this job. I would recommend him to all of the people I love the most, I would use him again. There is no other DJ out there like this - you need him for your next event!!

First things first, Chris is not "just a DJ", he is so much more than that! We were at our friends wedding when we saw how he kept the night going and the dance floor packed the entire time, from the little kids to the older guests, and we were like "wow! if we ever get married, we need him!". We are happy to say Chris was our DJ for our wedding a couple of weekends ago and we can not thank him enough! Having the first, second and final meetings leading up to the big day, really helped keep us on track with timing without making it feel overwhelming. Like i said, he's not just a DJ, so not only did he keep the music going and the dance floor full of energy, he kept me and my husband where we needed to be when we needed to be there! From the cake cutting, to the fireworks, to the last dances - he helped to get us there!

Chris is the BEST wedding DJ!!! He was by far the best decision we made for our wedding day! He rocked the house and had our guests dancing all night until the very last song!! We also did our uplighting through Chris. It was beautiful and added the perfect touch to our wedding reception room.
The announcements, music and uplighting was PERFECTION!!!
We cannot thank Chris enough!! I highly recommend Chris to any couples out there looking for a wedding DJ. IF YOU WANT YOUR GUESTS DANCING NONSTOP AND THE PARTY TO CONTINUE ALL NIGHT THIS IS THE DJ TO BOOK! He will truely be your best decision you make for your wedding day. You will NOT be disappointed!!!

We are so fortunate we chose Chris to DJ our wedding. He was extremely professional and made the process incredibly stress free. The dance floor stayed packed and our family and friends had an amazing time! The uplighting transformed the room and looked amazing in pictures! Chris truly is the best at what he does.

Chris was the absolute best choice we could have made! Throughout the entire process he was so personable, helpful, and just NICE. We felt like he was just one of our friends that we could chat with and felt like he really got what we were looking for and what we wanted in a wedding DJ. There were multiple times where we would ask his advice on a certain song pick or just general wedding etiquette and he knew exactly how to answer our questions. He did not disappoint! People were on the dance floor the entire night and ever since our wedding we have gotten multiple comments from our guests. Some saying it was the best wedding they have ever been to and others talking about how great the DJ was - one person even said it was like he was part of the family! His happy go lucky attitude was the best thing we could have asked for on our special day. We would recommend Chris a million times over!

Chris - thank you for making me and Dave's day the best it could possibly be! It was a day/night to remember and we owe a lot of that to you. XOXOXO

Chris was the DJ at my wedding at Aldrich Mansion in RI 4/22/17 and did an amazing job! My husband and I could not be happier with our decision to choose Chris as our wedding DJ. From the start, Chris was extremely professional and organized which kept my stress to a minimum in regards to the music selection for our reception. My husband and I live in CT and were able to communicate with Chris via email/phone for the wedding planning process and could count on Chris to always respond to any questions that came up in a timely manner. Our guests of all ages had a great time dancing as Chris played something for everyone. Thanks for helping create an unforgettable wedding Chris!

Chris was fantastic at our November wedding. He was very professional and honestly had us sold from our first phone call. He was very organized and made the process much easier on us with our personalized website and helped us when we were stuck between 2 songs. He takes the time to get to know you over multiple appointments, whether over the phone or over skype. He was very flexible about working with a live Greek band at our wedding and our only regret was not having his sets be longer.

To us having a DJ that would keep our guests engaged, would make sure our reception stayed on schedule and most importantly that would be sure that us and all our guests had as much fun as possible was at the top of our priority list; and Chis delivered on all of theses above and beyond our expectations! Throughout the wedding planning process we learned the DJ plays such a larger role in our wedding day than "just playing some music", and we are so glad we had Chris as our DJ whos attention to detail and thouroughness assured that those many many other things were handled flawlessly. We also utilized Chis Saraiva to provided uplighting for our reception, which made our ballroom look nothing short of spectacular. Through our search for a DJ we learned up lighting is not all the same; the lighting provided by Chis was nothing short of top quality and it worked perfectly in conjunction with the music. We would without hesitation recommend Chis Saraiva to anyone we know for his DJ and uplighting services!

Chris was great and easy to work with, as well as being very responsive. He made the process of selecting songs for our wedding ceremony and reception stress-free.

His up-lighting and speaker equipment was excellent quality and the mood of dance floor seemed to change in accordance with the different colored lighting he used.He was very professional and attentive to any requests our guests had throughout the evening.

We highly recommend Chris Saraiva to anyone looking for a DJ for their special day and could not have been happier with the job he

Chris was great. His client website helped us add songs we wanted, but he really helped walk us through what we wanted the event to look and sound like. The dance floor was busy all night long and Chris made sure the party didn't stop until the very end! He helped make our wedding an event that we will never forget and neither will our guests. Thanks Chris!!

We're happy to endorse Chris, a true professional who is as creative and thoughtful with music selection as he is organized and well-spoken throughout the entire process. He made sure we were able to enjoy our night, managing the flow from an elegant ceremony before transitioning to a memorable high-energy celebration. We'd hire him again in a heartbeat.

Chris was the DJ at our wedding and we couldn't have asked for anyone better. He made the planning process so easy and kept everything organized for us. Our guests loved him just as much as my husband and I do. The comments came all night about how professional and wonderful Chris is at his job. He made sure the timeline we set up together ran smoothly and kept us in the loop along the way. We appreciate all of Chris's hard work and without him our wedding wouldn't have been as perfect as it was!

Chris is professional and my husband and I are extremely happy with the entertainment he provided on our wedding day!! I personally love how he gets to know each couple on a personal level as to what they're looking for on their big day. He had everyone dancing from the beginning to the end!! This is EXACTLY what I wanted! The music played during cocktail hour, dinner, and the entire reception was what I describe as perfect! I was unsure of what song I wanted him to play as our "last fast dance" song.....he assured me not to worry and he would read the crowd and choose something for us and he did! It was a great song that ended our wedding on a very high note! I would recommend him to anyone I know that's getting married! Chris, you are extremely talented and overall just a really nice person! John and I can't thank you enough!!

If you are planning a wedding and need a DJ hire Chris immediately!! Chris was amazing!! The whole process leading up to the wedding he was so organized and on top of everything that it made life so much easier. When it came to the actual wedding day I was worried about people not dancing but ohhh was I wrong. Chris had people on the dance floor from beginning to end. It was amazing. I cannot recommend Chris enough!! If you need a DJ he is your guy!

Such a professional. Really gets to know the customer and gets a feel for the music they enjoy. He was with us every step of the way throughout the entire process. We have been to 3 other weddings that he has DJ'ed and everyone one of them has been fantastic! Everyone at our wedding was on the dance floor the entire time and we have Chris to thank for that! Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a DJ. So happy we went with Chris as our DJ, no one else would have done a job like he did!

In the year leading up to our wedding, we welcomed the birth of our first child and moved (twice) to two different states. Needless to say planning a wedding at the same time could have been a nightmare, but it wasn't. Working with Chris was EASY and stress free. We would hire him 1000 times over again. He provided the music for both our ceremony and reception and both were perfect. He's friendly, professional, easy to trust and fun to work with! We couldn't recommend him more!!

Chris was such an amazing DJ! He was very friendly and made us feel comfortable. He had everything super organized, which was great for an OCD Bride. All we had to worry about was picking our songs and he even helped with that! His selection of music was great for the crowd we had. I would definitely recommend him to anyone for your wedding/event!

Chris is an amazing DJ! Our family and friends are a really fun bunch that love to hit the dance floor and Chris kept them there all night! (Which was a good thing because it was a chilly November evening!) Chris was really easy to work with, listened to our requests, added his thoughts and input where needed and made the entire process simple and stress free. Not only would I highly recommend him, but I will be using him again in the future!!!

Chris was awesome! The planning process was smooth and he had great recommendations the entire way in terms of song choices and timelines for our night. We have been receiving compliments of what a great DJ he was from a lot of our guests. We chose a non-traditional venue in a restaurant and Chris ran with it. He kept us on time, dealt with any issues that arose and was so kind and professional while doing so. We also were asked by the restaurant venue for his information because they thought he did such a great job. When someone from the industry asks for that information, you know he was good. Thank you so much, Chris!!

Chris, you are a kind, fun, and intelligent professional who loves what he does and it really shows in your work. We couldn't be more pleased choosing you to be apart of our special day. You're punctual, organized and go above and beyond. If you want your wedding to rock and your guests to keep talking about it weeks later, hire Chris Saraiva!!

Chris was amazing!!! We are SO happy we chose him to be our DJ. We got married at Belle Mer on 9/19/15 and can not stop talking about how much fun it was. Chris has everyone on the dance floor from my grandparents to friends. The lighting he did looked great as well as the music during the ceremony. I would HIGHLY recommend Chris for any event, he really has skill reading people and knowing what to do to keep the party going.

Chris is by far the best DJ in the area. We have been to 3 other weddings (besides ours) where he DJ'ed and every time was an amazing experience. He knows exactly how to read the crowd and plays what they want, while keeping the bride and grooms wishes in mind too. Very professional and easy to talk to. We always looked forward to our meetings with him. Even when we were stuck on some of the song selections he knew exactly what to chose. He really was above and beyond!!!

If you read nothing else on this review page, know that Chris Saraiva should be first on your list! Chris moved the reception along perfectly and kept everyone dancing and having an amazing time all night. Choosing vendors for a wedding (and depending on them) can be stressful, but you can absolutely rest assured that Chris will take care of everything on his end. A DJ is so important to the life of a party, and he will far exceed expectations. We can’t thank Chris enough for helping to make our wedding night the most fun night of our lives, and we give him our highest recommendation! Thanks Chris and Nelly!

Chris is a genuine professional. He truly knows way more than he probably needs to about every aspect of what it takes to create a great wedding experience. We were able to talk to Chris and get advice about everything from the type of chairs we should rent to the location of our wedding photos. He stayed connected with my fiance and I through social media throughout our entire engagement. I was really excited to see that he took the time to get to know us because on our wedding day it allowed him to create a vibe that was so true to the two of us. Our family and friends had the most amazing time at our wedding; the dance floor was full the entire night. I personally am not one to dance very much but I literally only left the dance floor twice the whole night. The only reason I did leave was so I could rush to the bathroom. I also have to say how great it was to have a personalized website where you can pick your formal dance songs and give Chris an idea about songs you love and songs you hate. My husband and I were so pleased with our entire experience. Thanks again Chris!

Chris was the DJ at our wedding at OceanCliff and he did a phenomenal job! He was so easy to work with and we could tell he was a true professional from our very first meeting. Since we live in New Hampshire, we were able to accomplish some of our meetings over the phone, which helped to saved a lot of travel time for us. When our wedding day arrived, everything went off without a hitch. I was so confident in Chris's abilities that I never once looked at the clock or checked if things were on schedule - he was in total control of the situation and checked in with us when necessary. Chris did a great job mixing in some classics for the "older" family with a lot of fast paced music for the younger crowd; this kept everybody on the dance floor for the entire night. Thank you for making our wedding amazing, Chris!

Where do I begin? Since the moment I walked into Chris' studio I knew he was the D.J. I wanted for my wedding. (plus all the word of mouth referrals and great reviews were a big help). Chris was so welcoming. I really appreciated how he wanted to get to know us, get a feel for our relationship, all so he can make sure that he gave us the best entertainment for the night. Throughout the wedding planning process Chris was there to help with any decision making questions I brought up to him. Wedding day, I wasn't worried about a few things because I knew I made the right choices. Chris was definitely one of them. He was so open to our wacky ideas and made our grand entrance definitely a memorable one. The rest of the night was just as amazing as the beginning. The lighting was exactly how I pictured, and the music...WOW. He knows the chemistry of the dance floor that's for sure. He made sure everyone was out on the dance floor. Not only did Chris become our D.J. for our wedding night but we gained a friend in the process and to me, that means a lot. If your looking for an experienced, amazing, and fun DJ Chris Saraiva is the one. Worth every penny.

Chris Saraiva was the first DJ we met with and also the last DJ we met with. After leaving the consult, we knew he was the right guy for the job. He is very easy to talk to and was very receptive to all our ideas. Chris has DJ-ing down to a science and knows how to create a romanic atmosphere as well as get the party started! I would highly recommend Chris to anyone planning an event!

Chris is fabulous! Not only is he a great DJ, but he is a great person. Throughout the entire wedding planning process he took the time to get to know me and my fiance, so that he truly knew who we were as people and what we wanted out of our wedding. He was always available to answer questions and make suggestions for the "special" songs. We were looking for a DJ who would play good music and get people to dance without being obnoxious -- he did that. We had a fairly small wedding and a large dance floor, but there were always people dancing and at no time did it look empty.

Chris also did uplighting for our wedding. We had a very dark venue, but he was able to get the colors we wanted to pop and it added so much to the reception. He was always aware of what was going on both with the guests and with us and made necessary adjustments to our timeline in real time which was very helpful.

I would highly recommend Chris for any wedding event of any size. Our guests are still talking about how great he was, and we totally agree!

There is a lot that goes into a great party. Having the right people, the right location and good food are all very important. But, in my experience, the DJ/Music is what truly drives or ends a great event. Truer words could not be written for our wedding.

With all of our invited guests traveling in from out of town, our actual guest count was lower than what was expected. Being in a larger room made us all a little nervous. Would our guest count be too small for the event? We also had an awesome outdoor space, overlooking the Newport bridge. ..And because the weather was fantastic the bar was moved to the outside, fantastic for the guests but less than ideal to get folks on the dance floor.

Well Chris pulled off the ultimate challenge, cat herding these folks to be engaged and dance their behinds off the entire night! It's been over a month since our wedding past and people are still coming up to us, saying this is the "Best Wedding Ever". These individuals memory of our event is a direct correlation of Chris' amazing skills and talent!

Getting to the "Best Wedding Ever", Chris coached us in several session, regarding what it would take and what he needed from us, to make it the event we always wanted. Additionally he set up an outdoor system and managed the music for our actual wedding.

Chris' down to earth vibe, made it easy and comfortable to work with him. He was the one DJ that we interviewed that didn't have a cheesy tone. Also Chris' price was simple and easy to understand. In fact his base package included exactly what we wanted. Other DJs may appear to be less expensive .. start to probe and you will quickly see additional costs into your estimate.

In short, Chris makes the ultimate DJ! Wildly talented, reads the crowds, adapts as needed, is a wonderful coach and is all around a nice guy. I can't want to find another excuse to work with Chris again!

Chris did an AMAZING job at our wedding and we could not have been happier that we chose him for our special day. Since the wedding, we have gotten so many compliments on our DJ and how much fun people had dancing at our wedding. The dance floor was packed all night long with people of all ages. The music was tailored to our taste and was appealing to all of our guests. Chris meets with you several times before the wedding to get to know you and to customize the music to the specific wedding. He made us feel like our wedding was just as important to him as it was for us. Chris also supplied the uplighting for our wedding and it brought the room to a whole other level. He was able to control the mood with the music and the lighting all night long and made it a night to remember! The whole thing went off without a hitch. We would highly recommend Chris to anyone we knew who was planning a wedding. Thanks so much Chris!!!

Chris is incredibly professional and knowledgeable at what he does. He has a way of getting to know the crowd and making sure everyone is having a great time. Working with Chris throughout the wedding planning was a great pleasure for both me and my husband. Every couple is unique and has their own story on what makes them clique. Chris got a sense of us as a couple and what we liked. So glad we met you Chris, Thank You!! We will absolutelly be recommending you to all of our friends and family!

Where to being?! First thing, Chris Saraiva is by far the best DJ! From the very first consultation, my husband and I knew he had to be part of our amazing day! Chris is extremely organized and professional. Let's face it, planning a wedding can be stressful but with Chris, you don't have to worry! His online website will help you organize your songs and he will go over everything, including giving you a printed time line of your big day (Yes, you even get your personal wedding planner!). Feel free to tell him anything you want because it's your day and he will MAKE it happen. He had guests of all ages up on the dance floor all night and played music that everyone loved. He is awesome, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a professional DJ for their wedding or any event! Thank you so much Chris for making our reception a rocking party for us and our guests!

My husband and I were lucky enough to book Chris as our DJ/Entertainer. He will hands down impress you. We had attended a couple weddings he had done before getting engaged so the second the ring hit my finger I knew I wanted Chris! He's fun, energetic, and knows his music! He always encourages you to make your event reflect you as a couple and we really liked that. If it's in your budget I would definitely get his up lighting package. You will LOVE the way your reception looks with this special touch! Thank you Chris - you were awesome!

Chris did an amazing job at the wedding of Amy and Carlos on Saturday evening. The dance floor was packed the entire night with the perfect blend of music to please the entire crowd. So glad we chose Chris and Nelly as they achieved perfection.

Chris was absolutely fantastic and we could not have been happier with him! He kept people dancing from the first song to the last and our guests are still talking about him almost a year later. He takes the time to get to know you and understand what kind of music is best for you and is a complete professional from beginning to end. We have recommended him to several of our friends and will continue to do so. Chris is the best decision you could make in your wedding planning process!

Choosing Chris as our DJ was one of the best decisions that my husband and I made in regards to our wedding! He had everyone dancing from the first song which was something that we had not seen and have rarely seen since our big day. The mix of music was amazing and kept people on the floor all night . Not to mention the uplighting made the venue look awesome! We were married last August and people are still talking about the amazing atmosphere of our wedding. He was a constant professional throughout the whole planning experience and throughout the big day. We would highly recommend him! He is simply the best!!

Chris was a true professional from beginning to end. His meetings were very organized and he was always available when we had questions. We liked the fact that Chris took the time to get to know us and to learn what type of crowd he was going to be entertaining. Thanks to Chris we had an incredible event. The energy at the reception was high all night. Chris also did an outstanding job suggesting and providing beautiful music at our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour.

Chris is truly an amazing DJ! He was very professional, detail oriented, and kept the dance floor bumping all night long! He made everything run so smoothly, which is really important on such a BIG and sometimes hectic day! Our wedding guests had such a fantastic time, as did we. Chris also provided the uplighting, which took the WOW factor to a whole new level! We were so pleased to have him part of of our big day, and highly recommend him!

One of the best decisions that my husband and I made was to go with Chris Saraiva for our DJ! We had several vendors fail us on our wedding day - seemed like everything was going wrong - until we got to the reception. Chris and Nelly went above and beyond to make the rest of our wedding day go very smooth... Chris got everyone on the dance floor from the first song and the dance floor was full the entire night. With an encore at the end! Chris and Nelly are a fantastic duo for photography and music/entertainment. We put all our trust in Chris re. song choice and selections and it couldn't have been more perfect! What a PARTY!! Even my husband danced all night.. and he never dance. Would recommend Chris and Nelly to anyone and everyone! They are the best... simply stated!

Every detail of the planning process is defined and he was so helpful! On top of being the best at what he does, Chris has such a great personality and is absolutely hysterical! We loved working with him, he helped make the day extremely special!!

We had Chris DJ and do the lighting for our July 13th wedding. Almost three months later our friends and family are still talking about what an amazing night we had. We met with him several times before the wedding to decide what we wanted for music. Chris really took time to get to know us and what we wanted our wedding to be. I wish we could do it all over again! Thanks Chris!!! (PS-Chris and Nelly are a great team!!)

In a couple of weeks my husband and I will be married for 1 year. Times flies extremely fast. I had a blast throughout my wedding planning and wedding day but although we all know it is extremely overwhelming. My husband and I had multiple appointments with vendors from all over so we could be sure we would have only the best on our special day. One thing we knew we had and didn't have to look any further was our DJ. The very first day we met up with Chris we knew we had found the right one. He was extremely organize, new his stuff, very professional and made everything a breeze for us. We couldn't be any happier. He provided the best of best and we would highly recommend Chris.

Chris did a great job lighting up the dance floor, literally and figuratively. We had such a blast and he kept the party alive all night! He was prompt in responding to emails and very professional. He treated us like friends! On a side note his voice is fun and confident... Not like those overly zealous announcers that sound like used car salesmen. Chris is the way to go! You will not regret this decision. If we had to go back I would not change a thing!

Chris Saraiva –

MJ & Tom married on Nov. 10, 2012 at the Aldrich Mansion in Warwick RI.

Chris came highly recommended to us by our videographer Mike Picard – Cumberland RI. We had cards for a few DJ’s and had interviewed one other before meeting Chris in his very beautifully appointed studio in Mattapoisett, MA. Once we met Chris we knew we were all set, there was no comparison to the professionalism and confidence he demonstrated on our first meeting and on subsequent meetings.

We had about four planning meetings with Chris which were very enjoyable. We got to know each other a bit, discussed the style and feel of the wedding and reception we were planning and really reviewed in detail the music that all three of us enjoyed (my fiancée, Chris and I). Chris really listens, thinks about the way the music will work with the venue, with the guests ages, and with the bride and grooms’ personal style. Sometimes we would ask him what he thinks for a particular selection and he wouldn’t give us an answer until our next meeting. He would really put his heart and soul into giving his best recommendation each time.

His website is modern and equipped to walk you through selecting all or some of you music. We liked that he had a searchable website (for music selections) and we could customize things easily on-line.

He also gave us some tips on wedding planning in general based on his wealth of experience in the wedding business and that was also very helpful.

Meet Chris Saraiva and you will want to hire him. Hire Chris and you will be confident that the day of your wedding will run smoothly.

All the best to you in your wedding planning!

Sincerely,
MJ and Tom

From our first meeting with Chris we knew that he was going to be our DJ. His professionalism and enthusiasm made him the only choice, for what ended up being a truly amazing day. He made the process of choosing music and laying out the wedding timeline extremely easy. The wedding was kept on schedule and the dance floor was full from the very beginning. We received numerous complements about the excellent entertainment from all of our guests. We could not be happier with the service he provided. Chris defiantly went above and beyond to ensure we had the best day of our lives. My wife and I are very grateful for Chris, who we were not only lucky enough to have as our DJ but also as a lifelong friend.

Event Date - 7/6/13

Chris was absolutely everything we wanted in a DJ. From the start, he was professional, organized, and very interested in who we were as a couple so that he could make our wedding reception a true representation of who we are. He played all kinds of music, and had everyone of all ages on the dance floor. His online system of updating your songs and wedding information was so easy to follow and made for a perfectly organized outline of what was to come on our wedding day. He executed all the little things we talked about perfectly, and even threw in some fun ideas that we didn't talk about, but loved. He knows exactly what he is doing, and was so great at making our reception the best party we have every had!

My husband and I were meant to get married in December 2011. Everything was all set to go, until my husband was denied entry to the US 3 days before the wedding (he is South African). Unfortunately we had to postpone the wedding. It was like something out of a movie! I had to call all my vendors including Chris. I was so worried we were going to lose out on some of the best vendors and all that investing. To my surprise Chris was very understanding and very supportive. He told me that he would be waiting for me and my husband for whenever the wedding was rescheduled. It was extremely reassuring to hear! One year later we had our wedding and Chris did an outstanding job! He is extremely sufficient and is full of suggestions and ideas. If you are stuck on song choices, he will give you several options and they are usually exactly what you were looking for! I found his feedback made my wedding day even more special because he tailored the entertainment to what I wanted. He is young and fresh and the perfect DJ for any occasion!

Amazing, Energetic, Unique, Fantastic....these are just a few words to describe Chris. He is very professional and EXTREMELY organized. He is full of new and exciting ideas. He seemed to always have a perfect twist to everything. He always put all his attention on us and we always felt comfortable with everything he did. We pretty much left it all up to him. He had everybody dancing from the beginning to the end. Thank you Chris for making our day special and very elegant. You put a PERFECT touch to our day.

Chris is great to work with. Love his sense of humor and how he keeps it light and fun. He did an awesome job at our wedding.. the ceremony, the up-lighting, and the reception. People were having a great time; he knows exactly how to read the crowd. If people weren't dancing, he switched it up real quick! We thought he was great through the entire process-- very willing to help with any issues we were having in ANY aspect of the wedding. He's a go to guy and we're glad we chose him :)

Chris Saraiva is hands down the best DJ you can have for your wedding. Not only does he provide music but he does an AMAZING uplighting job. We completely transformed the space for my wedding with ideas I had never even seen before! Not only did my venue look beautiful but the MUSIC did not stop and I have never seen a wedding where guests do NOT leave the dance floor. Our biggest concern was keeping the party rocking all night long and Chris did NOT disappoint. At the end of our night a majority of our guests were still partying. The music was upbeat and fun. He even played Portuguese music for my family! Throughout the entire process, Chris was professional and quick to respond to any and all of my questions or concerns. I am a type-A personality bride with a splash of OCD....if you want perfection..Chris is the DJ for you! Big mistake if you DONT hire him!

Choosing the right DJ was among the most important decisions for us. What's a wedding/party without great entertainment? Chris delivered and had our guests on the dance floor all night long. Briefly getting into the specifics. Chris really took the time to get to know us, offering terrific recommendations and advice. He's got an outstanding perspective on wedding entertainment. Chris' attitude and personality made it very easy to work with him. Just an all around great person. In summary, if your looking for a professional DJ to host your wedding, I highly recommend Chris Saraiva DJ Entertainment & Lighting.

Chris and his team were extremely professional right from the get go. I work with a lot of people in the wedding industry and I have to say I was very impressed. We hired Chris for his DJ and lighting services. The ballroom looked beautiful and we had a blast. I think one thing that makes him so successful is his personality, you feel like you can relate to him and he takes time to get to know you and feel you out as a couple. If you want the WHOLE PACKAGE- Chris & Nelly Entertainment is the way to go!

It has been almost a year now since our wedding day already, this review is well overdue.

During the first meeting we had with Chris we knew right away that we wanted to him to be our wedding DJ. He was cool, hip, and super professional; we knew his style was what we were looking for to make our reception perfect.

We booked with Chris, as well and Nelly for our photography, and they were two of the best vendors we worked with, we would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for service providers for their wedding day.

At first, we were looking for a DJ who would provide great entertainment services, some dance floor lighting to make the dance floor more special, and in our case, someone who understood our heritage to easily please our family’s selections. We got that and much more with Chris. By the time our wedding came around, we had also added the uplighting package for our venue, which turned out amazing.

Throughout the planning, we met with Chris a couple of times to initialize the planning and as we got closer to the weeding day to finalize everything. The online music selector was easy to use, and we also had help from him and Nelly to make some of our main music selections. Chris nailed our complicated friend’s last names during the introductions and kept everyone dancing until the end of the night.

We feel that Chris provided us with excellent service, as well as becoming a friendly familiar face who we wish the best for in his future.

Go Chris!

Chris is a great person and an even better DJ. He kept our wedding alive and active the entire night until it sadly came to an end. I cant imagine what our wedding would have been like if it had'nt been for Chris as our host!! Chris exerts himself with passion and confidence while truly understanding his clients needs. I'm so proud to call him a friend and highly recommend him as a professional!!
