Stephanie Sent on 11/02/2018Highly recommend charlie & privilege entertainment!
Charlie and his crew at Privilege Entertainment were the preferred vendor for our wedding venue, Giando on the Water and it’s clear why! Charlie was so personable and professional in all of our interactions throughout our wedding planning process. He and his crew certainly delivered and even exceeded our expectations on our wedding day! The dance floor was packed out the ENTIRE night and, no joke, several friends who never, ever dance were dancing all night long. Charlie and his crew arrived to our venue early to ensure that the our ballroom was in immaculate condition. We used Privilege Entertainment for music during our cocktail hour, uplighting and smart lighting in our ballroom, DJ and emcee, as well as their photo booth and all of these services were awesome! The lighting created a party ambiance and the photo booth was so unique and hilarious with the best props ever!! My husband and I wholeheartedly recommend booking Charlie and his crew at Privilege Entertainment!! -

Privilege Entertainment did an amazing job!
Privilege Entertainment did an amazing job and they were a big reason why our wedding day was everything we hoped it would be! They were the DJ and also set up the sound for our outdoor ceremony, provided lighting, HD displays, a photo booth, and a musician that played the piano during our cocktail hour and drums at our reception! Their sound system, lighting and everything else they brought to our wedding was very high end. Charlie and his team take pride in what they do and it shows! Our ceremony started at 5:30 PM and they were already at the venue starting to set up and test their equipment by 10:30/11 AM. Everyone on his staff is very professional and does a great job and Charlie leads by example. Most importantly, the music was awesome! The dance floor was packed the entire time. We met with Charlie many times leading up to our wedding and gave him a Spotify playlist of songs to give him a feel of what kind of music we liked. You could tell that he and the DJ listened to it and catered their playlist to our tastes. They had someone taking pictures throughout the event for free and they also added some nice personal touches like making a slideshow with pictures of us that was played during dinner. Privilege Entertainment did a fantastic job for our wedding and we would recommend them to anyone! -

Erin Sent on 11/21/2022Privilege Entertainment brought the party!
We booked Privilege Entertainment for our wedding in August and they did a phenomenal job for our big day. From the pre-wedding meetings, to getting a sense of what vibe and music we would like for our ceremony and party, along with figuring out all the logistics so on our wedding day we would could be at ease. As for the day of the wedding, needless to say Privilege Entertainment, and specifically Charlie and MC Charbel brought the house down! Our dance floor was packed the entire night with everyone dancing the night away. They did a great job of keeping the energy and positive vibes to make it a night we will never forget! I highly recommend Privilege Entertainment for your wedding! -

Stephanie Sent on 09/17/2020Great wedding entertainment!
From our first meeting, Charlie from Privilege Entertainment was very personable and knowledgeable on how to create a great wedding event - we knew we made the right choice immediately. Unfortunately, a month before our wedding, we had to change our venue to an outdoor space in order to keep our original date while following Covid restrictions. But, Charlie and his whole team were flexible and worked with us to accommodate the huge, last minute change of plans! From the photo booth operator to the live sax player and percussionist to the amazing DJ, everyone in Privilege was professional and highly skilled at their role. We couldn’t be happier with the music selection, lighting, sparklers & dry ice effects - basically the whole vibe that Privilege created for our special day - and our guests couldn’t stop raving about the great time they had. None of that could have been possible without Charlie and Privilege Entertainment, and for that, we are forever grateful to them! -

Our Wedding sound and lighting at Giando on the Water was conducted by Privilege Entertainment and was made into a Magical, Fairy-Tale come true Extravaganza!
Starting with the outdoor Ceremony, PE provided the sound system with background music, microphones for our live vocalist, Officiant and the Bride & Groom, without any hiccups!
We danced on clouds (created by dry ice) for our 1st Dance as Mr. & Mrs. that made the moment unforgettable. Throughout the Reception, the music was jumping and our Guests did not leave the dance floor.
Using red uplighting during the Reception was so beautifully dramatic.
It was all so picturesque...with us & our Guests constantly Smiling throughout. What else could you ask for when Hosting a very Special Occasion!?
Charlie and Team were totally professional, from early discussions until the last dance...available, courteous, on time, covering all details impeccably -
the word No was not part of our discussions.
Privilege Entertainment will be the Cherry on Top for your event!

Elizabeth Sent on 11/09/2018Made our wedding night!
Privilege Entertainment is amazing! We hired Charlie and his team for our DJ and Photo booth needs for our wedding on 10/21/18.
Charlie met with us in-person and e-mailed us frequently to ensure that all of our requests were being met-- he even entertained last minute changes to some songs. Everyone at our wedding danced all night-- even after our wedding ended, we got permission for one more song because not everyone was ready to leave! Everyone has been telling my husband and I what a great wedding we had because of the music-- no one sat down, except for dinner, the entire night! Charlie did a great job at giving us the right amount of Greek music and American music.
Also, my husband and I really wanted a boxwood background for our photo booth. We made our own and Charlie, at no extra cost, allowed us to us it! The photos from the photobooth were stunning, such great quality camera and props! Also, Charlie's team also takes photos throughout the entire event so you get that added bonus as well!
Highly recommend-- great price and a wonderful team to work with! -

Victoria Sent on 03/29/2020What a party!
Charlie and his team came recommended to my husband and I from our venue, Molos restaurant. Once we met with Charlie we didn't need to meet anyone else. We connected with him as friends right away and it was really easy to tell him what we wanted and didnt want and he listened to it all. I can't tell you how great of a party our wedding was.. We did not stop dancing all night! there was music for everyone and people of all ages were on their feet all night. People are still contacting me saying how it was the most fun wedding they had been to. We can't thank Charlie and his team enough! I had some kind of vision that wasn't going to work out with lighting, and charlie recommended to us uplighting which turned out great for the pictures and Privilege did that all for us. On top of all that, they had a very professional camera and we got a whole album of pictures from Privilege! it was really awesome to get so many great pictures just days after our wedding. THANK YOU CHARLIE! -

Lizzy Sent on 06/17/2024Highly recommend
We had an incredible experience working with Charlie and his team at Privilege Entertainment. From the start, Charlie responds promptly to your questions, and he is easy to communicate with. He puts a lot of thought and care into his work. We loved the ambiance Charlie’s team created with the lighting and music at our venue, Giando on the Water. Privilege Entertainment did a beautiful job with our ceremony sound and music, plus they created full dance party vibes all night which is exactly what we wanted for our wedding.
I would 1000 percent recommend Privilege Entertainment as a DJ for any wedding or party, along with their lighting. Truly a great experience working with them, no notes! -

Katherine Sent on 09/22/2021Our wedding party was Amazing!
Got married on 9/5/2021. Wedding was postponed about 3 times because of pandemic (June 2020, September 2020, finally happened on September 2021). PrivilegeE was always very accommodating to our needs understanding the situation and worked with us to move our event around without problem or penalty. Finally our party was amazing, they’re a group of very professional individuals that know how to make people have fun. Music was amazing, we had a very diverse crowd from Italian, polish, Latino and American guests, and all kind of songs were played so everybody danced and had fun. PE also took care of the illumination of the salon and the lights and the whole decoration was simply breathtaking.
We recommend Charlie and his team at PE with eyes closed, they are super fun, profesional, kind, and always understanding and accommodating everybody’s needs. Thank you Charlie and thanks to your team, we had a blast at our party and everything was really fantastic and super Fun! -

Katie Sent on 12/01/2023My DJ for life!
Charlie and his team are everything you want and dream of for your wedding DJ. Charlie was SO accommodating on meeting with us prior to the wedding and I always had a direct line of communication with him during the whole (almost 2 year) planning process. The day of Charlie and his team were very professional and all looked very dapper. From the ceremony to the reception they executed it beautifully. Our MC Charbel was LEGIT. He kept the party going while Charlie NIALED all the music. We had Greek and American music and they hit the perfect balance. I have family members, now 3 months after the wedding commenting on how good our Dj and MC were. I will be working with them for any future events I have and I highly recommend them for anyone looking for a professional, reasonably priced DJ. -

Ren Sent on 11/21/2013Privilege Entertainment were the DJs at my brother's wedding a couple of years ago and when it became my turn, I knew that I had to have Charlie and his guys DJ my wedding. I didn't even have to interview any other DJ's. My husband and I met with Charlie once and booked him on the spot! We wanted our wedding to be THE party of the year and Charlie made it happen! Looking at the pics friends posted, there was no one at the tables all night - they were up and dancing the whole time! Which is EXACTLY what we wanted.
And even when the stress of wedding planning got to me, Charlie's high energy got me pumped and excited for the big day. Besides the music, Privilege provided lighting and photos of the evening too! And the pics are great! It was a nice surprise to see photos from our wedding even before the weekend was over. I highly recommend Privilege - you can't go wrong! -

Daniel Sent on 05/03/2021We could not ask for more!
Charlie and his team at Privilege Entertainment provided DJ/lighting/photo booth for our 110-person wedding and easily exceeded all expectations. My wife and I are so happy with their work and could not ask for anything more.
Starting with the planning phase, Charlie will meet with you to discuss your event and ask you a lot of specific questions about how he can give you and your guests an amazing experience. No two events are alike, so I appreciated how he tailored his services to our tastes and vision. If you don’t have the answers right away, he has a worksheet that you can complete when you have your details decided. Charlie returns emails, texts, and phone calls right away and is a pleasure to work with.
At our wedding, Charlie and his team were utmost professionals. They dressed sharply, the booth looked amazing, and equipment was high-end, new, and clean. During the event Charlie periodically confirmed sequence of events, pronunciation of names, and specific tracks to play. His attention to detail, and love of the job really made me feel like he was my right-hand man so I could focus on having fun.
The photo booth was attended so no one had to figure out how to use it. The lighting made guests look great, the photo printer was quick and the props were fun. We had a guestbook there and the attendant encouraged guests to tape their photos in the book and write a note for us. Next, their lighting was excellent and really gave energy to the party. Our package included LED uplighting around the reception room and four LED moving lights with patterns and effects. I am an entertainment lighting professional in film/TV and very critical of lighting, so I know good lighting (and good lighting equipment) when I see it. We originally considered not including the moving lights in our package to save money, but that would have been a mistake. If you hire Charlie, (and you should) DO NOT SKIMP on the lights! They will elevate your party to the next level. Another great addition we had is a fogger or dry ice for your first dance. Sure, you probably don’t need it, but it’s another wow factor for your guests and adds another dimension for photos and videos of your dance. The DJ work is the core of Privilege’s services and it was outstanding. Music selection for welcoming guests to the reception were tasteful and upbeat, and when it came to open dance floor, they gave us the selection we wanted for our crowd with seamless transitions between songs, no laziness, and synchronized lighting effects. I gave very specific notes on what to play and when, as well as what NOT to play, and they nailed them all.
The best part about working with Charlie is that he genuinely enjoys making people happy and is meticulous with details. If you hire Privilage Entertainment, you and your guests will have a bangin’ good time without worries. They’ve got you covered.

Dear Charlie and Crew,
This thank you is long overdue, but the sentiment is still the same! I met you by chance at Giando's on the Water when I booked Stefanie's shower. Not only did you do her shower, but her December 2024 wedding as well. From the moment I met you, I felt an instant connection. It was apparent that you are not only a professional, but that you love what you do! You told Stefanie and Jesse that you would rock their wedding and you did just that. When I think about their wedding, the lyrics "let the music play, I want to dance the night away" , a Barry White song comes to mind. You certainly let the music play and the guests danced the night away! Thank you for making their special day memorable. I look forward to working with you again or having coffee at the Little Cupcake Shop!
Fondly,
Linda Delluomo -

The best DJ in New York City for weddings!!! hands down⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I am writing to highly recommend Privilege Ent DJ Charbel and Charlie for any wedding or event. My wife and I hired them for our wedding on September 17th, and he did a phenomenal job!
From the very beginning, Charlie and Charbel were incredibly professional and easy to work with. They took the time to understand our music taste and vision for our wedding day, and he created a custom playlist that was perfect. He also did a great job of interacting with our guests and keeping the dance floor packed all night long. Not to mention all the additional items they offered us at a small cost compared to others; uplighting, 360 degree Photo Booth, numerous consultation meetings throughout the year to touch base, sparklers, additional info on vendors like our dancing robot! They really out did themselves!
We received so many compliments from our guests about how much fun they had dancing at our wedding. DJ Charbel and Charlie played a great mix of music that appealed to all ages and tastes. they also did a great job of reading the crowd and playing the right songs at the right time.
If you are looking for a wedding DJ who will go above and beyond to make your day special, I highly recommend Privelage ENT!
Here are some specific things that Privelage ENT did that made our wedding day so special:
They created a custom playlist that perfectly matched our music taste and vision for our wedding day.
They did a great job of interacting with our guests and keeping the dance floor packed all night long.
They played a great mix of music that appealed to all ages and tastes.
They were very professional and easy to work with.
They went above and beyond to make our day special.
They enhanced our first dance with the smoke/dry ice effect!
Thank you, Privelage ENTERTAINMENT ,for making our wedding day so unforgettable! -

They demonstrated the utmost professionalism and gave their all to making our wedding the most special night of our lives.
