s how to do his job. He made sure he pronounces every name correctly before being announced into the ballroom and had the best music queued all night. We really cant thank him enough, he made our night and set the tone perfectly! 10/10 we loved having him be a part of our wedding!!!

e it so easy to plan out our day & wedding music. He read the room and played all the right songs. Thank you again Kris!

he even accommodated us using our own backdrop and set it up for us the day of. He had an online platform we could use to add songs on our own which made it so easy to plan the reception. He was so funny and personable, honored all our requests and made the night such an amazing experience for us. We would highly recommend him to anyone!!

mple!

was really easy to work with. He played almost every song we requested! Book Kris, you won’t be disappointed!

of the people and setting the tone of the music. He was punctional, professional, competent and most of all FUN. I HIGHLY recommend Kris for your weddings!!!

mple with the app and him and Heidi are both the kindest people to work with. Everyone let us know how much fun they had on the dance floor all night and we owe that to Kris. We love that we have the photobooth memories as well to look back on--it was a huge hit!

t at reading the room and playing songs to keep everyone on the dance floor! My maid of honor mentioned my love of the Muppets in her speech, and at the end of her toast, Kris played the Muppet theme song, surprising us both. Such a nice personal touch and a great example of how awesome Kris is. Thank you!

d everyone on the dance floor from beginning to end from age 2 to age 70+! We had a small wedding but he made sure we party all night long! It was a last minute wedding (3 months)and booking a DJ out of the blue 3 was kind of worrisome to say the least. I just Google DJ in South Jersey, really happy he took us on a 4th of July weekend! Everyone had a blast and besides the good food the DJ makes it or breaks it! No pressure! Must book the foto booth as well! Our friends/guests are still talking about it! Everyone absolutely love it! Thank you and your lovely wife for awesome entertainment and great music! Much success and blessings!

ure that everything ran according to schedule. He even stepped in to help guide the flower girls from the sidelines when they got a bit lost walking down the aisle. We could not recommend enough!

s and everything was perfect!! He was a lot of fun and really easy to work with!! I definitely recommend using Kris’s services!!!

mazing. At the wedding he had a great personality, played a variety of songs and kept people on the dance floor all night. The Photo Booth was great and had a ton of fun props. Everyone loved it. The photos were available online the next day for us to send to our guests. I would definitely recommend Kris to anyone!

imely manner. The app he had us use to plan our music was so easy to use and was one of the most fun things about planning the wedding. My husband kept commenting in the days after our wedding how perfect the music selection was! We also got the photobooth package, and it was a huge hit. We loved being able to see and share all the photobooth photos shortly after the wedding. My junior bridesmaid (7 years old) was obsessed with the photo booth and is in almost every picture (including one very sweet one from the end of the night where she insisted on getting a picture with the photobooth operator!) Overall, I would absolutely recommend Kris and By Design Entertainment!

e night! I loved the music app he offered to upload specific songs we wanted to hear. Also the photo booth was a huge hit at our wedding!!! Kris was excellent at communicating with me and answered all of my questions throughout the entire process. I couldn’t imagine working with anybody else! Please don’t look any further and book with Kris for your big day!

e beginning. He was entertaining, professional, and made us laugh during the centerpiece give away. Kris reads the crowd well and everyone loved the music, everyone danced for the entire reception up until the very last song.

oughout the process, was understanding of my hectic rescheduling throughout COVID, and made sure I had everything I wanted!

easy to work with. If you have guests that really like to have fun and dance, book By Design Entertainment!!

, and he provided great music/entertainment throughout the entire night. We also used his photo booth services and everyone loved it! Thank you Kris!!

int!

e first and only DJ I talked to when planning. He made the process easy and was helpful with what songs I would need and provided an app with suggestions. Kris also provided uplighting and a photo booth, which made our special night even better! Kris had the crowd dancing all night and ensured everything was great! Thank you so much kris, you are awesome, we are so happy you were apart of our day!

d it was a no brainer. Kris is funny, personable and very responsive. He made everything so easy for us. When the day came, he exceeded our expectations. He followed through on everything we asked for and he was active with our guests but did not overpower the evening. Everything was perfect. Kris is extremely reasonable in price and we would hire him again in a second. Our guests are still talking about how great he was and how much fun he made the wedding. Hire Kris, you will not be disappointed, I promise!!

ce the events we had planned smoothly. And he was very good at exciting the crowd and keeping spirits high with the choice of music and with his MCing abilities. I highly recommend By Design Entertainment for your wedding, or any event that would warrant a DJ.

rovides a very detailed form for you to fill out for anyone that he will announce. He also had us spell out people’s names phonetically so he would pronounce then correctly, and he confirmed them with the people in the bridal party on the day of the wedding. I was so impressed! I had been to a wedding where the DJ pronounced the grooms name wrong and it just came off terrible and I really wanted everyone’s names to be right. He was the perfect MC and kept us on our timeline so we got all of our activities in. He also played all of the songs we had put on our playlist and if we requested a song - it was the next song he played. The lighting was also fantastic! I had the most amazing time during my reception and Kris was a huge part of that. I didn’t want to leave the dance floor! He also made it so that we were able to get a group shot with every person that was at our wedding and we will have that for the rest of our lives. I cannot recommend By design entertainment more for a wedding DJ!! If I could give him more than 5 stars I would! Thank you so much!!

ed our favorites and even agreed to play an encore song after our last dance of the night (my family didn't want the party to stop!). He was very easy to work with and very down-to-earth unlike a lot of DJs we met with. He took the time to get to know us and added some cool personal touches to our playlist (like a final boarding call announcement for the Disney World monorail before our sendoff song...We LOVE Disney and honeymooned there, so it was a very cute surprise). Very reasonable price for an excellent job!

emely fast. Would highly recommend!

o get ahold of during the planning process and answered all questions promptly. You CAN’T go wrong here!

d with everyone, and went above and beyond to ensure we (the bride and groom) were taken care of. Thank you Kris!

tial meeting with him at Starbucks shortly after contacting him. He’s got a great personality and sense of humor. From the minute you meet him, you get positive vibes! We didn’t even meet with anyone else; we booked him immediately. During that two year span, we ran into some unexpected financial trouble and needed to cut down on our wedding budget & even change venues. Kris was willing to work with us & let us change a few things/cut out a few services we originally had wanted, which he definitely did not have to do! He’s the only vendor we kept when changing venues because we really wanted to keep him! We even moved to California (military move) in between that time and needed to converse with Kris over the phone until the wedding. There was a 3 hour time difference, but he still made it a point to talk with us even though it may not have been convenient for him. Every time we contacted him, he replied back quickly and was able to answer all of our questions. My husband couldn’t care less what type of music was played at our wedding, but I’m very picky and admittedly dislike most current music. Kris was accommodating to that & even upped our number of allowable “Do Not Play” songs haha! The Vibo app is nice & Kris definitely utilizes it! It’s laid out easily & divides everything up into categories. It even provides recommendations for certain instances that you may have overlooked or can’t think of (cake cutting song, bridal party entrance music, etc.) I recommend making notes on specific songs if you want Kris to make a shout-out or want it played at a very specific time because he does read them! We had a brunch wedding & not a very lively crowd. There was only a few people actually dancing and they were the ones up most of the time. Kris really tried his best to get everyone more motivated to get on the floor & even tried multiple methods. One was ingenious and worked for a while - he got everyone to crowd together on the dance floor for a group picture & then tricked them into doing the YMCA. Unfortunately they were a super tough crowd and most everyone seated themselves after that song. My husband and I truly appreciated all of his attempts, though, and still enjoyed ourselves even though most of our guests were party poopers! It also almost felt like Kris was our maitre’d - he was basically running everything! He was certainly more organized than our actual maitre’d and even checked up on my husband and I multiple times. About two weeks before the wedding, we realized we could afford the motion wall monogram of our names & asked Kris if we could add it in. He made a mock up of it to show us what it would look like & we loved it! It looked even better in person & he even added in some cool effects that we were blown away by! It was completely worth the price 100% We had a slight Disney theme to our wedding & Kris surprised my husband and I by adding the monorail spiel to the end of the very last song played. It was such a magical touch to the end of the reception & we even had multiple guests recognize it and smile! We cannot recommend Kris enough; he’s tremendously skilled & absolutely wonderful at what he does! We have no doubt we made the right choice & we wish we lived locally so we could use him again in the future for any other gatherings!

ugh of By Design Entertainment and strongly recommend this company! Our wedding was magical and Kris’s energy and enthusiasm helped to make our dream come true! Thank you!

table night! The guests were always dancing, and the music was a nice mix of everything to keep everyone happy and having a great time. We would highly recommend by Design Entertainment to anyone looking for an awesome DJ!

ger than expected and had open communication all night with my husband and I on any song requests/when we felt was good to play certain songs. He was upbeat, easygoing and made our night an ease. The dance floor was jammed the entire night and he always knew what song to pick if there was even a bit of a lull (which I’m not even sure there was one)! We have had so many compliments on how great he was, he was respectful of all age groups and knew how get all the generations out and partying. Thank you Kris for the best night ever!

the very start! Most of the DJs we interviewed were more interested in selling themselves to us, but Kris immediately wanted to know about us, our plans for the wedding, and took most of our initial phone call asking questions about how we wanted our wedding to go. It was really refreshing to talk with someone who cared and wanted to learn about us instead of pricing out his/her services and trying to validate why they should be paid that way. As for the planning portion, it was entirely seamless. He provided us with an app to help select music for various parts of the reception, as well as setting up the cocktail hour playlist. Pairing that with the timeline the venue gave us for all the aspects of our reception made everything flow perfectly! We were also able to pick songs for just about every aspect of the reception (we picked cake cutting music, shoe game music, etc.) and Kris was able to cue up exact portions of several songs for our wedding party introductions. It was executed flawlessly! Also, he picked up on various things throughout the night from the Best Man's & Maid of Honor's speeches and incorporated the Eagles Fight Song and a 80s/90s Boy Band segment to get people going! As for Kris' punctuality and professionalism, he is always on his A Game. He showed up when he said he would, and worked his magic with his uplighting and sound equipment to make our room look and sound amazing. Every bit of the night was right on cue, and we received countless compliments and praise on the DJ we selected and the quality of the music all night--praise that definitely belongs to Kris! In the short time since we've been married we have had a dozen people ask about our DJ, and some of those folks work in radio and at concert venues! Kris was some of the best money we spent for this wedding, and we really hope we get the pleasure of watching him work again soon!

g with Kris, he made us feel extremely comfortable and answered all our questions. I even asked questions that was not related to music but general wedding stuff and he was a great help with that to! We had also booked the photo booth, which Heidi was running during our wedding night. She is so nice and everyone had a blast doing the photo booth. We absolutely loved our photo booth design; I still cannot get over how awesome/epic they are. Honestly I cannot rave enough how awesome Kris and Heidi are! Kris made my guests laugh and he even got some people I did not expect to dance actually dance. He has great timing when it comes to playing songs and announcing events throughout the night. Kris and Heidi made the night flawless. During my wedding day which was on October 6th 2018 there were other weddings at the same time but that night I felt we were the only ones there. As I mentioned earlier, we have no regrets and you will not either. Please do yourself a favor at set up a meeting. You will not regret it!

helped us with our introduction to make it fun and lively and his attention to detail and desire to make sure everyone is having fun is unlike any other. His up-lighting truly transforms a room and we still can't believe how amazing our venue looked once his lights were set up. The photo booth was also a huge hit with us and our guests. Heidi, his awesome assistant was great with our guests and helped everyone out and was a delight to work with. We can't thank Kris and Heidi enough for making our night so much fun. We look forward to hanging out in the future!

fect!

made our ballroom so much nicer looking! The open air photobooth was a big hit and having the scrapbook is so much better than a regular old guest book, in my opinion. Kris was a great DJ and had everyone young and old dancing all night! He was very accommodating of our specific music requests and helped us pick certain songs that we were stuck on.
