I started taking dance class in the third grade. I continued all the way into my twenties. I have always been the first person on the dance floor and the last person off...at any event that I go to. I take this passion and knowledge for dancing behind the DJ table with me and use it to create a unique and memorable party for all your guests. I add in a little flare on the mic, some cameos on the dance floor and don't stop until your wedding is a day that you and your guests will remember for years!

To say Chris was the missing link we needed would be an understatement. When searching for a DJ for my wedding, I wanted someone who saw the vision and respected it: Everything from every genre crammed into one night- easy right ;)
The way Chris takes control of the music, the dance floor, the crowd and the vibes, he saw that vision and BLEW IT THROUGH THE VENUES ROOF. Not once did our guests leave the dance floor, not once did a smile leave our faces, from impromptu games and dance offs to amazingly timed drops- Chris did it ALL.
Throughout the planning process he took time to learn us as a couple, find WHY we like music as opposed to using a pre generated playlist like many others do.
Every detail about how I wanted music incorporated into my day became so, due to his impeccable attention to detail.
I will recommend Chris & Big Handsome Entertainment to anyone who has ears and loves a good time. I can’t imagine our wedding without them.
Truly!! XO The Gaffneys

DJ big handsome is an absolute legend. He lived up to and surpassed my expectations for everything. I initially reached out to hire him for my wedding because I saw literally no reviews other than 5 stars and I am stoked to add another to the pile.
Chris is kind, engaging, gentle when giving his opinion and all around super positive and easy to work with. My husband and I are more reserved people and don’t love the attention a wedding naturally brings and Chris “yes and-ed” us and made us comfortable and pushed us out of the comfort zone without really pushing us at all. He created vibe where you couldn’t help but absolutely let it rip and have the best time. My husband is not someone I’ve seen dance in all our time together and he danced the majority of time the because of the atmosphere Chris created. So many people commented on how great he was and that DJs can make or break the vibe at the wedding. If you’re looking for high energy, great mixes, DJ participation, laughs and fun, DJ big handsome is for you. Our wedding event coordinator even mentioned how excited she was to work with him after speaking with him the day before to coordinate logistics, and our photographer mentioned to me that not all vendors are easy to work with but he was easy to coordinate with, happy to integrate and overall really really great. I can’t say enough good things, truly.
Any questions?

Chris was the DJ for our wedding this past weekend. He was the absolute best. Had great communication with him leading up to the wedding and he was well prepared with everything we wanted to do. He brought so much energy to the party and had everyone dancing all evening. We got so many compliments on him from our guests. He’s the absolute best DJ around and strongly recommend him for your event.

Big Handsome Ent was all around incredible! Chris is so responsive and answered all our questions thoroughly as well as connecting us to the DJ we’d have beforehand so we could get to know them personally. We had Brian and he was the absolute best! He understood exactly what we’d want and filled in the blanks when we needed help. I got so many compliments on how awesome our DJ was. He threw down hard on the dance floor and it was completely epic. 1000% recommend - you can’t get better than them!

Working with Chris for our wedding was unbelievably fun. Right away, we could tell by his charisma how passionate he is about DJing. We clicked right away and knew he would have a lot of fun making our event a lot of fun! Chris also helped us orchestrate a photobooth through his company and wrapped it into a package which alleviated extra work on our end (very grateful for that!). We could highly recommend Chris and the DJ Handsome experience to anyone in the wedding planning phase! He did an unbelievable job and even got on the dance floor with our guests to keep the party going. You won’t regret it and will have a blast the whole night!! Thanks for everything Chris!

We hired Chris from Big Handsome Entertainment for our wedding this past weekend and could not have been more satisfied with our choice! He made the entire process incredibly smooth leading up to the big day, and when the day finally came he did everything flawlessly. All of our guests could not stop raving about how great our DJ was and how they have never been to a wedding before where the dance floor was packed for the entire night. If you are considering BHE for your next event, have no fear and just book them. You’ll have 0 regrets!

We highly recommend working with Big Handsome Entertainment! Chris was highly responsive from the time we inquired with him through the end of our ceremony. We got married at Lake Bomoseen Lodge which he is the preferred vendor for and it showed with how great he was with communicating with their staff. We had a lot of last minute changes due to rain but Chris was flexible and executed our vision perfectly. We had guests with a wide range of music taste but everyone had an amazing time dancing the night away.

So glad we chose Big Handsome Entertainment to DJ our wedding. Chris is a great communicator and made planning music for our wedding a very smooth process. Greg was our DJ for the big day and was phenomenal to work with. He was cool, calm, and collected and made everything stress free for us on our wedding day. He ran everything perfectly from the ceremony to cocktail hour and the reception with no hiccups. He kept the dance floor going all night long, we had so much fun! We recommend them for any of your DJ needs!

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our wedding day. Brian captured our vision and made the entire day unforgettable. He created an eclectic atmosphere for our ceremony. The reception was a blast. Our guests never stopped dancing. The music choices were were spot on and kept everyone on the dance floor all night. Brian’s ability to read the crowd and keep the energy up was impressive! If you are looking for a DJ who can make your wedding as fun and memorable as ours, Brian is your guy!

We had Brian from Big Handsome Entertainment for our wedding at the end of June. He totally understood our vibe and got everyone dancing immediately! We used a portal to select songs and then went over everything with him on a call a few days beforehand. We appreciated his flexibility when a dance we had planned no longer seemed necessary to get people out of their seats. We also had 3 different set ups for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception and there was never any lapse in music!

Brian and Big Handsome Entertainment were a pleasure to work with! Before our wedding, they provided us an easy to use portal to provide all the necessary information, and checked in with us to make sure they were on the same page with us for the vibe. On the day of, Brian arrived early, set up quickly and without any issues for getting the rest of the reception room ready, and checked in with us regarding things like speaker selection and song ideas for times like dinner, when we did not provide any specifics. He then provided a great party, taking requests, keeping the dance floor full and everyone having a great time for the whole night, and when it came time to break everything down he once again was efficient, clean, and made sure there were no issues with getting everything else taken down. Would highly recommend.

DJ Big Handsome… WOW is all we can say. He turned our wedding into a party and kept it that way. Chris brings amazing energy, enthusiasm, and charisma. Our guests absolutely loved our dance floor and it was full the entire night. He really pays attention to what is going on on the dance floor, and what needs to be done to keep the crowd engaged. The fact that the groom lost his voice is a testament to how great of a job he did.

Chris was truly an excellent DJ. We were worried having been to so many weddings that had DJs that simply use a playlist with no mixing of songs, but Chris went above any beyond and also strategically included all of the songs we wanted to have played while being sure not to play those we requested not to have. It can be scary to let go and fully trust your vendors with your big day, but he is definitely one you can do that with. He was organized, thoughtful, professional and quick-thinking when plans changed last minute. We were lucky to have him there to take care of us and entertain our guests on our wedding day. 10/10 would recommend.

Look no further!! Chris was an absolute dream to work with and pretty much the reason why all 200 people at my wedding had the time of their lives.. and it was New Year's Eve so expectations were high! He took care of everything, we never had to stress... which I'm beyond grateful for. He has the best personality and knew how to make everyone have fun. The party literally didn't stop from 6pm to 2am. Everyone who was engaged at the wedding asked me for his information! Chris is your guy!!!

We hired Big Handsome Entertainment for our wedding this past October. From the very first email, Chris was wonderful to work with. Chris was very responsive to my emails no matter when they were sent and answered all my questions thoroughly. After our first phone call with Chris, I knew that his personality would be the absolute right fit for our wedding. Chris is very organized and methodical in how he plans the flow of the event. He worked with our venue to make sure everything went off without a hitch. During our meeting the week of the wedding, he made sure he had everything accurate based on what we sent over. I was really impressed leading up to our event and Chris absolutely knocked it out of the park for the entire day. The ceremony music and sound quality was perfect for our outdoor ceremony. He also made sure everything was ready to go for our guests to arrive at cocktail hour. The rest of the night was just as fantastic. Chris was really able to read our crowd for music selection and that dance floor was packed all night long. He joined us for a few songs, even getting me to sing into the mic. We had also brought light up foam sticks which I expected my bridal party to have to distribute. Chris saw them when he was setting up and asked us before we headed out to cocktail hour if we wanted him to hand those out. Chris was fantastic and made sure everyone on the dance floor had one or more! Overall, I highly recommend hiring Chris for your wedding or next big event! You won’t be disappointed!

Chris is the BEST Disc Jockey going! He came to our house to preface the wedding and ask how we wanted things so he could accommodate our needs. He arrived with all the equipment, didn't need anything from us, and packed up, all without help. He played all the jams, got the floor moving. So much so I thought the line dancing was going to break the dance floor. He also was great on the mic when he introduced us and made announcements. 10 for 10 would recommend.

If you need a DJ, look no further than DJ Big Handsome Entertainment, LLC. Chris was incredible at every step of the way. From a thorough, detailed call to discuss things ahead of our event, to seamlessly changing ceremony sites at the last minute, to getting everyone on the dance floor - Chris was there with a reassuring smile and a positive attitude. Guests young and old were not just satisfied with the song choices but we had to practically pry them off the dance floor…which Chris expertly helped us with so that we could have a private final dance. All in all, Chris is in the upper, upper echelon of DJ’s and you won’t regret going with him for your big day. Oh, and the Ring Rover is a must as well! Thanks again Chris!

We got married at the end of October in Vermont and Chris was amazing throughout the entire experience. He was responsive and so friendly and fun. He encompasses the "not my first rodeo" vibe. For example, we got married at the bottom of a long hill (I am so sorry, Chris!) and he had to move his equipment down and allll the way back up. On his way up, his equipment caught on his pants and ripped them and left a huge hole. You know what he did? Handled everything like a pro, got us settled at dinner and then Facetimed his mom from the bathroom so she could walk him through sewing his pants back up. Sure, he ripped them back open doing The Git Up dance with us later but WHO CARES?! We loved him. He handled some awkward family stuff so gently and in a friendly manner and I was so grateful. He worked closely with what we wanted from the beginning and danced with us at the reception. Love. Ten stars if I could.

We had DJ Grand (Greg) at our wedding and he was amazing! He coordinated everything perfectly- with the ceremony music, first dance music, and parent dances. He was also great with the games we wanted to play and making announcements for us throughout the night. He checked in with us frequently to make sure everything was going how we wanted. Big Handsome Entertainment was also very reasonably priced! I would highly recommend them for your wedding/event!

PHENOMENAL all around!!! I initially booked Chris, and he had a commitment, so he referred me to Greg. Chris coordinated EVERYTHING perfectly - he was on the ball. I really didn't do any work on my end, which was nice because planning a wedding is stressful enough. Greg was the MAN!!! Seriously was killin it behind the booth. Taking the requests we asked for, getting the audience involved. These guys are experts at what they do, they don't need a lot of guidance. I would also suggest the ring roamer, the guests loved this :) Zero stress no complaints.

Professional from start to finish. The DJ wedding experience Big Handsome provides is superior and unmatched. DJ Big Handsome was exceptional at working with the wedding coordinator and keeping everything on schedule. DJ Big Handsome also reached out and communicated with us multiple times before the wedding to coordinate our playlist with our wedding schedule. DJ Big Handsome has the ability to read the crowd and provide music that keeps everyone dancing! You can also be sure to see Big Handsome break some moves down out on the dance floor because this man can dance! All I can say is my wife and I are glad we hired Dj Big Handsome for our wedding! It was an amazing experience that we will remember for a lifetime.

Hands down best choice was choosing DJ Big Handsome for my wedding. He is the type of DJ that will get your guests up and dancing and will truly keep the party going until the last minute possible. I loved his energy that he brought to the table along with his amazing song choices and wedding games. He gave great advice when it came to me questioning timeline of things and how long it would take to do dances, games, etc. DJ Big Handsome is experienced and you can tell by how comfortable he is on the microphone that he truly cares about everyone having a good time. We loved him!

Chris was absolutely amazing to work with. He did our wedding on 10/1/22. From the first contact he responded quickly and he was even on vacation. When we met a week before he brought a sense of calm, humor and professionalism to the meeting. You could tell that he was good at what he does. He walked us through the day and fit in what music we wanted, how we wanted things done and had great suggestions on how the day would flow. The highlight of our meeting we brought an idea of a first dance and created the perfect mashup. It was perfect and everyone loved it. The day of the wedding you could see the way he took control of the day and made sure that what we wanted was done with perfection. Even when we had a zigzag with the food he kept everyone calm and entertained. Thank you for that. Now let's talk about the party. Chris kept that dance floor pack and did such a great job reading the crowds and kept the music fun. He even got on the dance floor with us and showed us his moves. Everyone all night kept saying how amazing he was and this was the best dj ever. People went home happy and sore from dancing all night. I couldnt be happier with everything and will gladly suggest Chris over and over again to.any bride and groom getting married. You will not be disappointed. Thank you again chris for making the wedding so perfect. Ashley and Chris Poland

Greg was very easy to work with and provided our reception with everything we requested! The best part of this company was that there was no time limit for music, which allowed up to dance into the night!

My husband and I had Big Handsome Entertainment for our wedding and we cannot recommend them enough. Chris went above and beyond and exceeded all of our expectations. From the ceremony music, to cocktail hour to keeping our party ALIVE right until the end of the night. We had the package which included the ring roamer photos and our guest absolutely loved it. We had people coming up to us all night to say how amazing our DJ was! Chris engaged with our guests keeping them entertained and we were dancing and laughing all night. He even got in to our dance circle and showed everyone how it’s done!! Will recommend them to anyone and everyone getting married in the area! Thank you again Chris.

I never fully appreciated what a wedding DJ brings to a wedding reception until I had the absolute pleasure of having DJ Big Handsome absolutely rock the house for mine. He came highly recommended and still managed to vastly exceed all my expectations. The way he is able to read the room and maintain the energy of the crowd is astounding. If there was a way I could give him more than five stars I would. DJ Big Handsome is without question who you want for your special day, I promise he will not disappoint.

IF YOU WANT AN AMAZING WEDDING YOU NEED THIS GUY!!!! Please note the following reasons why I’d change my wedding day if I couldn’t book him:
1. He is experienced. He knows exactly what to do regardless of the situation. That makes a huge difference on your day. From set up, to space, to working with your other vendors- this guy is second to none.
2. He is flexible. He handles last minute changes easily; it ALWAYS feels like he wants to do everything he can to make your day amazing. He gives great advice and takes your requests seriously.
3. He is the most fun guy in the room every time. This guy knows how to party and engage a crowd.. which leads me to number
4. He can read a room. THIS IS ESSENTIAL AND NOT MANY PEOPLE CAN DO IT. He seamlessly can see what people are jamming to and shifts accordingly. This was awesome for us! It kept our party jamming until the last minute.
5. He’s easy to work with. He is kind, thoughtful, and patient, and professional.
6. The whole family will love him. Grandmas, toddlers, just everyone will be drawn to him.
7. He’ll wear an incredible outfit. Best 3 piece suit I’ve ever seen!
8. He’ll be the life of a party from start to finish.
9. ALL your guests will compliment you on your DJ after the wedding and say how much fun it was. THE FUN OF YOUR WEDDING IS LINKED TOTHE DJ! I’m telling you, this guy is worth every penny and more. It’s the most important vendor you’ll chose if having fun at your reception is a priority for you.
10. DJ BIG HANDSOME IS SIMPLY THE BEST.

Chris went above and beyond for our wedding. From running the music and mic during the ceremony with a battery box to keeping the party running smoothly during the reception, he was absolutely awesome all night. He was also extremely professional and personal. He was responsive to all forms of communication and even met us at his home the week before the wedding to confirm all of the plans. I would highly recommend!

From start to finish Chris was amazing to work with! He turned our vision into a reality. Everyone enjoyed the music and could hear him clearly. I didn't have to stress because he was in control and just let us know what we had to and when we had to do it. I couldnt imagine my wedding without him!

Chris was absolutely fabulous! The energy was so high for our whole night. We had several people rave about our DJ that night and the days after our wedding. I wanted country line dances — and was thrilled when Chris came out on the floor and led The Git Up followed by another country banger. He did a great job of weaving in all my many (non-cohesive) song requests while still playing to the energy of the crowd. We had everything from classic country to disco jams, to beach music to 90s indie and pop songs, and it brought every single person to the dance floor.
From the beginning of planning, we knew he'd be a great fit. He went above and beyond helping the mother of the groom create a special edit for the mother-son dance, and listened to our vision while still asking for the leeway to read the crowd. We couldn't have asked for a better and more fun experience!

Chris at Big Handsome is absolutely fantastic!
We didn't have a wedding planner, and he happily stepped up to fill that role for the reception, and was effectively our MC as well.
All of our interactions were very professional, starting out with a written questionnaire to detail how we wanted everything to go, from introductions to first dances and any games (the shoe game was great!) and events (bouquet toss).
This was followed by a phone call (we were to far to meet in person before the event) to go over everything and make sure the weren't any miscommunications, and it was very obvious that Chris takes pride in giving exactly the service each couple wants!

Cannot possibly say enough about Dj Big Handsome! He was everything we needed and was exactly what we wanted. As always, he brought the party and had EVERYONE on the dance floor from the very moment the reception began! It was the party of the summer and we have heard SO many compliments from all of our guests! Thank you Dj Big Handsome for throwing us the party of our lives and playing such a big role in the best day ever!
