We can’t say enough amazing things about DJ Anthony Cross. We hired him for our son’s baptism, and once again he absolutely delivered. This wasn’t our first time working with him —...
we’ve trusted Anthony with multiple important events in our lives, and he continues to exceed our expectations every single time.
His energy is truly out of this world. From the moment the event started, he kept all of our guests engaged, entertained, and on their feet. The stage setup and props he brought were top-notch and really elevated the entire atmosphere of the party. Anthony has an incredible ability to read the crowd and adjust the music and vibe seamlessly — and it showed. Guests were raving about him all night and asking for his information because they want to hire him for their own special events.
Beyond the music, our interaction with Anthony throughout the night was phenomenal. He was always smiling, professional, attentive, and clearly passionate about what he does. You can tell he truly knows his craft and takes pride in delivering an unforgettable experience. If you’re looking for a DJ who brings high energy, professionalism, and a guaranteed great time, Anthony Cross is the one.
Anthony rocked the house for my daughter’s college graduation party. He worked the crowd, got everyone dancing, and played the best music! There is no one better!
DJ Cross and his team are excellent! We hired them for my twins 16th Birthday! They really know how to get a party started and how to make it last all night long! Every single pers...

If we could give more than 5 stars we would! The entire process from start to finish was stress-free, communicating with them was super easy, very professional but will also take t...
heir time to get to know you in order to make your event exactly what you’re looking for. Chris Cross Entertainment absolutely killed it at our wedding. Anthony and his team made our wedding the most fun, they had everyone dancing and engaged the entire night, all of our guests are still raving and talking about it! Overall experience and value was 10/10!
When it came to my daughter’s Sweet 16, time was not on our side. Everything came together at the last minute, and I was a ball of nerves worrying about how we could pull off such ...
an important milestone in record time. But thanks to the incredible Chris Cross Entertainment; DJ, his phenomenal MC, and the dream team of photographer and videographer, the event was nothing short of spectacular—a true masterpiece delivered against all odds.
Having known Anthony for decades —and having been lucky enough to have him DJ my wedding—I already knew he was the best in the business. What I didn’t expect was his ability to step in on such short notice and deliver a flawlessly curated musical experience that had every single guest on their feet. Anthony's DJ read the crowd with the precision of a seasoned professional, spinning tracks that blended my daughter's youthful favorites with timeless hits that brought the generations together. His adaptability, creativity, and upbeat presence turned what could have been a rushed affair into an elegant and electrifying celebration.
The MC was nothing short of sensational. With just days to prepare, MC Mystic showed up with boundless energy, ready to take charge and keep the evening flowing effortlessly. His vibrant personality and natural gift for engaging an audience ensured that every guest—from my daughter’s teenage friends to the adults—felt part of the excitement. He kept the timeline running smoothly, coordinated perfectly with the DJ, and brought an energy to the night that was simply contagious.
Despite the tight planning window, the photographer delivered artistry on a level that left us speechless. Every fleeting moment of joy, laughter, and love was captured in vivid detail. She worked with incredible efficiency and professionalism, ensuring that no moment was missed—even under the constraints of a last-minute schedule. The photos are breathtaking and feel like a storybook of the evening, one that we will treasure forever.
The videographer was equally remarkable, turning our whirlwind of last-minute planning into a cohesive and cinematic highlight reel that feels like it was months in the making. His ability to work seamlessly with the rest of the team, capturing the energy and essence of the evening, was nothing short of miraculous. Watching the final product brought tears to our eyes—it felt like reliving the night all over again, only this time with a front-row seat to every magical detail.
This A Team Exceeded Every Expectation. Pulling together an unforgettable Sweet 16 in such a short amount of time was no small feat, but this dream team made it look effortless. Chris Cross Entertainment has been a part of my life for decades and part of my life’s biggest celebrations. Anthony proved once again why he is simply the best. Anthony's ability to rally an incredible team, adapt to last-minute plans, and still deliver a top-tier event is unparalleled.
If you’re looking for professionals who don’t just meet expectations but surpass them—no matter the timeline—this crew is the gold standard. They turned a rushed plan into a night filled with love, laughter, and memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you for your unmatched talent, dedication, and passion for making every moment count. You are truly one-of-a-kind! We are forever grateful!

r guests had so much fun. I opted for the custom banner and the photo booth which was the perfect touch! All of our guests were dancing the whole time and can't stop talking about how great the party was. It's all thanks to Anthony's awesome energy as the MC and the fun music. Wouldn't use anyone else for my events!
I’ve known Anthony since he was 19 years old. He did my engagement party and other parties as well, in March 2024. We hired Anthony to do my daughter’s sweet 16. What an amazing n...
ight it was, his MC was amazing. Had all the teenagers and adults on the dance floor to the night was over. I highly recommend Anthony for your next party. He’s the best !!!!
We recently had the pleasure of hosting our children's communion/confirmation party and were absolutely delighted with the performance of the DJ and his child entertainer. From sta...
rt to finish, he had everyone laughing, dancing, and fully engaged. His energy was infectious, and he created an atmosphere of fun and excitement that captivated both kids and adults alike.
Anthonys music selection was spot on, featuring a mix of classic hits and popular songs that kept everyone on their feet. He was incredibly skilled at reading the room and adjusting the playlist to match the mood and energy of the crowd. The dance floor was never empty, and it was heartwarming to see the kids having such a fantastic time.
In addition to Anthonys DJ skills, he excelled with his child entertainer. His interactive games and activities were a huge hit, keeping the children entertained and engaged throughout the party. He had a knack for making everyone feel included, ensuring that even the shyest kids came out of their shells and joined in the fun. His humor was perfectly pitched for a young audience, and the laughter was constant and contagious.
What truly stood out was his ability to connect with the children. He was patient, kind, and genuinely enthusiastic about making the party a memorable experience for everyone. Parents couldn't stop raving about how much their children enjoyed the event, and many commented that it was one of the best parties they'd attended.
Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better DJ and entertainer for our family party. He made the day incredibly special and memorable. If you're looking for someone who can bring a lot of joy and excitement to your event, I highly recommend him. He truly made our party unforgettable!

. They are early, affordable, and communicate often. When they get to the event they change the energy in the entire room! Everyone at the event made a positive comment about Anthony and Frankie!!! We had the most incredible time! They were key to the success of the event! I will continue to reach out to them for my future events!
I met Anthony over the summer at an event he was doing. He was so energetic and entertaining that my family and I knew we wanted him to be the DJ at my birthday party.

team went above and beyond! When it came to planning, Anthony listened, made suggestions and was very accommodating. On the day of the party, he and his team surpassed our expectations - everyone was kind and friendly. The music was great, he kept the guests entertained and we all had a great time. I'll definitely be working with him again!
our dances etc, he really knows what he is doing. IF YOU WANT YOUR GUESTS TO DANCE ALL NIGHT LONG - THIS IS YOUR DJ! Anthony brought the energy to our wedding, he was incredibly t...
horough and professional. He sat with my husband and I to go over our music/likes/dislikes to ensure the music and flow would be perfect for our big day. All of our guests RAVED about how fun the wedding was and it was because we danced all night long. I am so glad we found him. On top of playing THE BEST MUSIC, he engaged our guests; getting them on the dance floor and making it so much fun. I really appreciated his professionalism and guidance when it came to planning our dances and overall flow of the event as well. My husband and I still continue to visit him at his residency at Cassariano’s (which is how we found him) because he is so fun and we love to dance. You will not be disappointed if you hire him! that’s why he’s one of the best. I will also mention that his pricing is extremely reasonable and fair (which we all can use). BEST DJ EVER! My friends are planning to hire him for their upcoming events as well because they enjoyed him so much!

was so energetic and got everyone off their feet. He made sure to not only make me and my mother feel special but also our guests. He walked around and even learned guests names to really get them engaged and ready to party! Anthony played all the songs I selected and even took requests from the guest of honor and other guests. He allowed my cousin to listen to my mom which was such a special moment. During and after the party everyone was asking me for his card! He truly helped make my moms special day perfect! Don’t hesitate! Book him for your next event! Thank you Anthony!!!!!

Overall, the party was a success and I would absolutely use this service again.

A party to remember.
DJ Anthony Cross from Chris Cross Entertainment was a pleasure to work with from the first phonecall to the moment my event was complete. He is a gentleman and did a fabulous job e...
ntertaining my guests at my son’s Communion party. His talent goes beyond playing the right type of music for your guests. He gets to know your group and knows how to encourage everyone from children to adults to dance, participate in games, and LAUGH with his larger than life personality! So many people asked me for his information after my party! I’ve hosted and been to my share of parties with DJ’s, and in recent years, I feel DJ’s are just missing that special entertainer quality. However, you will not be disappointed with Anthony Cross. He is a DJ and an entertainer- a true standout!
Anthony and Criss Cross Entertainment made my daughter’s Sweet 16 party a smashing success! Anthony got people up to dance who I thought would never get up to do so. His funny jok...

Chriss Cross Entertainment was an absolute awesome team! Our wedding was at the tail end of the covid, when the mandates to dance without masks were being lifted and even with all ...
the changes towards the end of the wedding planning, Anthony scramble to make everything seamless and go off without a hitch! I felt that everything was under control throughout the entire day with Anthony’s attention to detail and preparedness for anything that might throw a hurdle under this feet. My whole wedding party was almost never seated, even our 75-year-old grandmother didn’t wanna leave the party (she always wants to leave the party 😆) The energy in the room was high and everyone was tapped into the pulse of the party. Anthony and his team kept up the magnetic vibe to keep all on their feet and celebrating our joyous day till they finally wrapped! Eddie and I could not be more happy with the outcome of the event. The whole party continued even through breaks for dining and Anthony and his team knew when to ramp up the tunes to keep from any lapse in momentum. I have no idea how we pulled this event off without ever even meeting once in person but I guess that’s how the best in biz rolls! They are professionals through all of the steps in planning your event and are flexible making you comfortable to leave the party in their hands. I recommend Chris’s Cross Entertainment if you want to have the most memorable, energetic and fun event of the year.
Chris Cross Entertainment was one of our favorite vendors from the very beginning. Anthony was so down to earth and easy to work with, even with our multiple postponements. He was ...
there for us every step of the way and gave us advice whenever we needed it. When it came to the big day we had an amazing time, and that was all because of Chris Cross Entertainment! Our family and friends continue to tell us how awesome our DJ and MC were. We will definitely be keeping them in mind for any events moving forward.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Chris Cross Entertainment for making our wedding an unforgettable event for friends, family, and ourselves.
I come from a very in...
troverted family, and I was anxious regarding how the evening would play out. I heard about Chris Cross Entertainment through a friend. She explained it wasn’t just music I’d get, but the excitement and level of engagement with the crowd. That’s what I needed...someone to make it memorable!! Anthony has a unique talent to make everyone feel involved and engaged. It was like having a TV personality host our wedding! I could definitely see him hosting an academy award event.
Anthony, don’t miss your calling! Shoot for the stars!!!!
If you’re looking to party, look no further!
When my husband decided he wanted to throw a 40th birthday bash for himself, we knew we had to have an awesome DJ. We didn’t have a gr...
eat one for our wedding and wanted to make sure it didn’t happen again. All my husband wanted was for people to be dancing all night, and just have an awesome time at his party eating and drinking. We found Anthony from Chris Cross Entertainment through a friend and decided to give him a shot. I spent some time looking through the videos and photos he has on his Instagram and website and felt confident that he would do a great job. He did that and more--he BLEW US AWAY!!! The party was AMAZING thanks to him! He created an awesome vibe for us. He read the crowd and kept them dancing the ENTIRE night. It’s a week later, and my feet still hurt! We’re both still getting phone calls and text messages about how great the party was. He was so easy to work with leading up to the event, and the day of, he was SO kind to my family and to my kids (who were also present). That night, he had CJ working with him as well, and CJ was equally great! CJ took photos for us and he did an amazing job capturing some great moments that we will look back on with fondness. We had so much fun—it was a true party. My husband was so happy and that’s all that I wanted for him. I would book Anthony again in a heartbeat. I hope someone I know uses him soon, so I can dance the night away again 😊

get the party started. Til this day I still have people saying how great my wedding was. A huge part of this was because of the excellent job this team did that night. I will continue to use them for future occasions! I also always recommend them to anyone who inquiries about a DJ. Love, love, love👍
What can I say about Chris Cross Entertainment...They were beyond amazing!! Every guest at my party came up to me to inquire about who the DJ was...I'm still getting calls and the...
party was over a month ago! People could not stay off the dance floor. The way Anthony knows how to read a crowd is truly a gift that a lot of DJs out there do not possess. I'm not only speaking as a person who has hired Chris Cross Entertainment to DJ their event, but also as a guest whose attended numerous parties Chris Cross Entertainment has been at. Each and every time they were outstanding! From their amazingly elegant and beautiful set-up to the even more amazing selection of music I can not say enough great things. The dance floor was always packed...people did not even want to sit down to eat. I would highly recommend Chris Cross Entertainment to anyone who wants their event to be a truly memorable one!
Chris & Anthony kept the energy the whole night without ever being overbearing (we all know those stereotypical party over-hypers!)... We had such an eclectic mix and they fit our ...
every need. From Santana (family favorite & Anthony's too!), to country, to hardrock, to City Girls twerking anthem, Chris & Anthony were fluid enough to handle our full spectrum. I also had a dream to crowdsurf at our wedding to my favorite A Day To Remember song and they were sure to schedule it in there. Aside from a rocking dance floor, they kept everyone on track and well mic'd for speeches. Cannot recommend Chris Cross Entertainment enough!
What can I say?! Anthony and CJ made my fiancé’s 40th bday party an absolute hit! They arrived 2 hours early to set up and worked with me on different options for a challenging roo...
m shape in a bar. Their lighting and sound created an awesomely fun party vibe from the start. My group was a lot of big burly guys who usually just hold up the wall and Anthony got them dancing with the best old school hip hop and house music - not an easy feat! His partner took great pics all night and helped capture all our special memories. They go out of their way to make sure your party is perfect. Wonderful to deal with on every level - punctual, professional, courteous and they know all genres of music for every group! You will not be disappointed!! Thank you again for everything Criss Cross Entertainment!!!
There are not enough kind words to describe the amazing work and entertainment that Anthony and his team deliver. I have had the pleasure of being a guest at parties that Anthony w...
orked and have now had the privilege of having him at my son’s christening. Anthony is meticulous and detail oriented. He goes above and beyond before the event to ensure that he knows about you, your guests and your event; your likes and dislikes and what you would like the day of your event. Anthony is great with names; he gets to know your guests and their names and is sure to include them in the festivities throughout your party. He is a true expert in his field; a true professional; and beyond charismatic. He and his team are able to work with guests of all ages. I had guests from newborn to 70s at my son’s christening and Anthony included games for the kids, dancing for the adults and party music for all. My guests have not stopped calling me to tell me how great the DJ was and asked me for his info for their parties. Anthony truly made the party the great success that it was. He was punctual, professional, personable, and truly entertaining. You will not be disappointed!!
