We had the pleasure of having DJ Your Way With Chris as our DJ for our 1-21-24 wedding. From our first phone call, we knew Chris would be great. His energy, professionalism, and expertise helped our day run smoothly. Our guests loved every second of being on the dancefloor and Chris helped get the crowd going for our entrance. He played everything we asked for from Latin, hip hop, reggae, freestyle, reggaeton and our dance floor was packed the entire night. Chris also controlled lighting during the reception and the music for our ceremony. Everything was flawless, thank you Chris! Highly recommend!
DJ YOUR WAY WITH CHRIS- he was the most amazing DJ to work with he was calm, cool, read the vibe of the rooms perfectly, played every song we wanted, got the crowd hype, and was professional and amazing to work with my husband and I highly recommend working with him! Do yourself and your guests a favor and book with DJ Chris!!!
Our experience with DJ Chris was outstanding. From the moment we met him, he's proven to be a true professional. Chris guided us with the wealth of his wedding DJing experience. He was always prompt in responding to emails, too. Cannot recommend him enough!
Any questions?
Dear engaged couples, look no further. DJ Chris is your man! We could not have asked for a better DJ and emcee for our reception and cocktail hour. From our very first call, Chris made us feel comfortable and assured that everything would be tailored to our preferences. When he says “DJ Your Way,” he means it. Chris allowed us to provide a list of our favorite songs and played everything we wanted to hear—and then some. He read the room and played just the right thing in the right moment to keep the dance floor packed and the evening running smoothly. After the wedding, several friends and family members reached out to let us know that the music and dancing were their favorite parts of the day. If we could give DJ Chris more than five stars, we would. Hire him without hesitation and get ready to dance your special night away!
Chris was extremely professional and responsive from the very beginning. He kept our reception running smoothly and the dance floor full at all the times. We had the best time dancing along with our guests all night long and cannot thank, Chris, enough!
Chris is the absolute best! From start to finish, he was on top of everything, and his reviews truly speak for themselves. Every interaction with him was met with outgoing and amazing energy that just makes you want to party. Chris kept our entire wedding guest list on the dance floor all night, seamlessly touching on all the genres we wanted to be played. We can't thank him enough for making our celebration unforgettable. We hope to cross paths with Chris again in the future for more incredible moments!
DJ Chris was the BEST!!! He took time to schedule calls with us to go over the whole night in detail. He made sure that everything was exactly what we wanted. Chris had everyone on the dance floor ALL night long! Our guests were loving him! He is so easy to work with and is SO much fun!
I would give DJ Chris 10 stars if I could! Chris DJ’d for my ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception on 12/2/23 at Lambertville Station and was absolutely flawless. He was SO easy to work with, friendly, knowledgeable, and you can tell he loves what he does! We had a wide range of guests (age and taste in music), but Chris had everyone dancing the entire night. He made the bride and groom feel at ease (and EXCITED) the entire time, was very outgoing, and needed very, very little assistance and direction. The absolute best DJ we could have wished for! Thank you so much, Chris, for making our day AWESOME!
DJ Chris was phenomenal! He worked with us ahead of time to plan our music out - we made a few specific song requests and gave a handful of no-plays, but for the most part just told him roughly what music we liked and he ran with it. Everyone seemed to enjoy the music, including us! Chris also helped get everyone organized and under control before dinner so that everyone in the bridal party knew what to do when they walked into the ballroom. I never felt like he tried to steal the show from me or my bride, he did a great job of making the night about us and our guests! One last little note, we have been to so many weddings where we couldn't even hold conversations during dinner because the music was being played so loudly. In a couple of these instances, the bride/groom even asked the DJ to turn the music down and they didn't... we mentioned this concern to Chris ahead of time and he kept the music at the perfect level during dinner, we could hear it just fine but also were able to converse with all our guests.
DJ Chris was the absolute best addition to our wedding. I knew from the first time we spoke that he was the right guy for the job. His energy and personality shined through the phone, and I knew then that he was the right guy for the job. He is truly passionate about his job and really cares about his couples having the best time. He made the entire process so smooth and easy from start to finish. We had a few phone calls to run through the specifics and details for the day. He was so quick to respond to my emails and questions. But what I loved most is that he knows how to read the room. He played a variety of genres to get the whole room dancing. Every guest was up on the dance floor having the time of their lives. My guests and family could not stop talking about how great Chris was and even weeks after our wedding I am still getting so many compliments about our reception. Chris definitely did not disappoint. I have no clue when I'll need a DJ again in the future, but you bet if I ever do, I’ll be calling DJ Chris and you should too!
Chris is AMAZING! He made our wedding a huge party! Our dance floor was filled all night! He is so personable and fun. He also is great with communication & really brings your vision to life. Book him for your wedding!
Asked for 90's 2000'd music's and played old music all night only playing what we asked for the last hour. Also barely played any Latin music as asked... Asked him to play a song at the reception, and instead of playing it while people are dancing he played it right after we all day down at the beginning of the reception... Would not recommend having multiple people tell me after that they were unhappy with the music so it wasn't only me. In fact the dj was the only thing people complained about, so clearly it wasn't only me..
Chris did such an amazing job for our wedding in July 2023. We couldn't have asked for anything better. Everything from the moment the ceremony started to the last dance was absolutely perfect! Chris made the entire process so easy & seamless for us. We especially appreciated his feedback on our song & logistics selections, and how accommodating and flexible he was to incorporate our special requests. He's a true professional and clearly understands how to read the flow of the occasion. Would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding DJ.
From the very first moment I spoke with Chris on the phone about our wedding I knew I had found our DJ – he exceeded all of my expectations – incredible isn’t a strong enough word. Chris listened to every idea and suggestion I made and curated the most amazing playlist for our wedding. From the ceremony, to cocktail hour, up until the ball drop at midnight, every single song was purposeful and thoughtful. Chris was one step ahead throughout the entire night and got every single guest out of their seat and onto the dance floor! He made our wedding night and New Year’s Eve memorable for everyone. If we could give Chris 1000 stars, we would. If you are looking for a DJ that brings much more than music to your wedding, look no further – DJ Chris is your guy!
DJ Your Way With Chris was amazing! He made our wedding reception unforgettable. Chris was great at reading the room and played tons of different genres that got everyone of all ages up and dancing. He made sure to play all the songs we wanted and then some! The music selection was perfect, and the energy he brought to the room was incredible. Chris was very professional and easy to work with throughout the entire process. We appreciated his attention to detail and willingness to listen to our needs and preferences. We highly recommend DJ Your Way With Chris to anyone looking for an amazing DJ who knows how to get the party started and keep it going all night long. Thank you, Chris, for making our special day unforgettable!
DJ Chris was fantastic!! He kept everyone on the dance floor all night long. He was absolutely a pleasure to work with and so helpful throughout the planning process. His MC skills for entrances cannot be beat. I’ve never heard a more hyped up crowd!!
If you want to have the dance floor packed - hire Chris. DJ Chris worked with us the whole way making sure that we had the reception we wanted. He was clear about expectations the whole time and was totally flexible with our music list.
During the ceremony, he kept the party going the whole time and his energy is infectious. That being said, he doesn’t spend an unnecessary amount of time on the mic. He is committed to making the wedding about the couple and their guests, not about him.
He was loyal to our music list but was able to weave some songs we hadn’t thought about (all of them huge crowd pleasers).
Chris is an easy hire. He is very quick to respond and his pricing is straight forward and fair.
Can’t recommend him enough!!!!
If we could give Chris 100 stars, we would! We was BEYOND amazing and worked with us every step of the way (even down to a day-of music change)! We never doubted that he knew what we wanted from the first meeting we had! Our guests raved about the music and were dancing the entire night! He read the crowd and played everything that we wanted. Chris is INCREDIBLE.
Chris was amazing. We got married September 3rd and he really made our night special. He is really passionate about what he does and really attentive. Everybody loved him and all of my guests were dancing on the dance floor all night. It was an unforgettable experience and trust me when I say that Chris will make your night 10 times better than any other DJ. Brian & I love him!
LITERALLY THE BEST DJ/MC EVER! If you want exceptional and professional services from the beginning, until your big day, you need to hire Chris! He is super easy to work with and will make your day (and planning process) go so smoothly! He read our crowd and played the perfect music all night! He is also super affordable! He's amazing, and we wouldn't want any other DJ! Thank you again for making our day perfect- Julia & Daniel Van Mater
If you want your wedding guests to have a blast and dance all night at your wedding, then DJ Chris is your guy!! He knew what songs to play to keep people of all ages on the dance floor all night! He is the best wedding DJ and MC I have ever seen and very reasonably priced. Thank you again, DJ Chris! Love, Mary and Cameron Hortman
Every wedding needs Chris. He was FANTASTIC. I love to dance and wanted a DJ who would keep the energy high and make sure that all guests, younger and older, are dancing the night away. Chris surpassed all our expectations. He knows how to read the crowd and he made sure that everyone had an absolute blast, even guests who we never expected to see on the dance floor, were on it all night. We got so many compliments on the music and the energy, all thanks to Chris. He made sure that everything ran smoothly and as planned, so all we had to do was enjoy our night stress free!
He was also incredibly helpful leading up to our wedding, answering all of our questions thoughtfully and helping us nail down our reception timeline. He offered great advice where needed and made us feel like we are in great hands from day 1. We cannot recommend Chris enough! If I could give him more than 5 stars I would. He made our wedding perfect.
Absolutely phenomenal DJ! We had our wedding at Pier Village last month and it would not have been the same without Chris. He was professional throughout, discussing our needs and accommodations, and day of, was very helpful and flexible. Speaking with Chris, you can tell that he is genuinely concerned about your wedding experience and wants to make it the best possible; well, he succeeded!
Chris was the DJ at our wedding and he was the absolute best. He worked with us prior and helped us organize and pick everything out! He was extremely accommodating when we asked him to include some Romanian music throughout the night. He made the day of the wedding run smoothly and was amazing to work with! Can’t recommend Chris enough!
DJ Chris was absolutely amazing at our wedding, and really made the evening as special as it possibly could be. My now wife and I didn't give him too much to go off of in terms of music suggestions, but he took our tidbits, and turned it into the best dancing setlist ever. People couldn't stay off the dance floor, and all of our guests raved about the music. What we really loved about Chris was how flexible he was to the image we had for our wedding. We didn't want to do anything too flashy or showy, and he happily and flawlessly executed all of our requests. We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and would highly recommend DJ Chris for any and all of your DJing needs.
We saw Chris DJ at my best friend's wedding in July 2019 and knew we had to have him at our own wedding. He was extremely easy to work with and very accommodating when we had to reschedule our wedding not once, but twice due to COVID. Chris is very detail-oriented and will make sure your wedding day is perfect. He played all of the songs we requested and also expertly read the room to play other songs that kept everyone on the dance floor all night. I cannot say enough great things about Chris and would recommend him in a heartbeat.
I reached out to Chris after my coworker said that Chris was the DJ at her wedding and did a fantastic job. After meeting Chris, I knew that I wanted him to be our DJ. He is organized and easy going, but gives also gives great advice. He helped make an ABBA mashup for my sister, my mom, and I to dance to. He had the guests so pumped up. He had the dance floor packed all night! He appealed to every age group at the wedding. He was a major highlight to the wedding. I'm a very type A bride and I was so glad to have him there!
Chris was so amazing to work with! His energy was so great and the guests loved his music selection! Even the people who worked at the venue had so many compliments for him! He really listens to what you want to make this your own experience! Super professional! Would recommend him over and over again! Thank you Chris for making our day so amazing!
My daughter was recently married on 6/26. We chose Chris because he was the DJ at my niece's wedding 6 years ago. We never stopped dancing the entire evening!! He is not like a lot of the "hokey" DJ's. He is very professional and cares about providing the bride and groom with the ultimate party. I would highly recommend Chris. You will not be disappointed!!
Chris DJed my cousin's wedding over 5 years ago and I knew after her wedding that when I got married I had to hire him. Chris is the absolute best DJ! Our guests were dancing the entire time and everyone said how wonderful the music was! He guided us through the entire process of selecting music, answered every email and question within 24 hours, is very professional yet calm, reassuring, funny, and just a generally awesome person! We can't thank him enough for everything and for keeping the party going the entire night!
Chris is AMAZING! He played everything we asked for and did an awesome job playing music guests of all ages would enjoy. His rates are competitive and he is so easy to work with. My dad was a little nervous about public speaking and said Chris made him feel at ease prior to giving his toast. Our guests raved about the DJ all night and how much fun they were having. Our wedding was half of what we anticipated at 90 people due to COVID and you would have never known with how packed the dance floor was. It was the first event many of us attended since all restrictions were lifted and Chris was a major contributor to our perfect day.
Chris was the DJ at my wedding because he impressed me so much at my sister-in-law’s. Chris is so much fun and has the crowd up dancing the entire time. He makes every minute fun, and is faithful to your wishes. He was so helpful in coming up with songs when I wasn’t sure and giving me advice. I cannot recommend his services enough!!!
Chris is absolutely the best! We have 4 daughters and have used Chris as our DJ for two weddings so far...2 more to go and we will definitely be calling Chris for those as well. He is extremely professional, high energy, and knows how to keep the party going. Chris takes the time to listen and then creates the ultimate event. I would highly recommend him!
Chris is AMAZING! Thanks to Chris, our guests were up dancing the entire night! We got so many compliments on our music & DJ. He was so helpful from start to finish - sharing all of his knowledge from previous weddings. He helped us create a great flowing wedding reception that helped maximize our dancing time. Hire Chris for your wedding!
Chris is amazing. He got everyone dancing immediately and kept them dancing the whole night. He knows how to control the vibe of the room without taking over. Every person who attended my wedding couldn’t stop talking about how great the DJ was. I’d recommend him to everyone I know in the future!
From the moment I first talked with Chris, I knew I wanted him as our DJ. We ended up changing our venue and date and I was SO excited when Chris was available for our new date. We had our wedding on March 26th, 2021 and when I tell you he was PHENOMENAL, that’s an understatement. He went above and beyond during the whole process to make sure it was exactly how I wanted it, and he made it such an easy process. In my opinion, a bad DJ can make or break a wedding and if you’re planning your upcoming wedding, I promise you, you need to hire Chris as your DJ. Not only was he incredibly efficient, easy to work with, but he has such a friendly, fun personality and you feel like you have known him for years. You can feel from the first conversation you have with him, that he has such a passion for what he does and that he truly loves being a DJ. There was not a single moment where the dance floor was empty, and that’s exactly what we wanted. I had so many of our guests say how great Chris was, how he played the best music and how much fun he was!
We met with a few DJ's before booking with Chris and one of the main reasons we decided to go with him was because he was extremely personable and honest. He delivered top quality work with the best price in the NJ area!! All of our guests loved him!
Best DJ ever!!!!! From the music to his personality, my friends and family (and us) just adored him! Everyone would be lucky to use him!!!!
Chris DJ'd our wedding and was awesome!!! From our first facetime call we could tell just how passionate and excited he is about what he does. We knew from his energy that he was going to be the right guy for the job. He's very professional and had a lot of good advice for us about the reception as well. He took the time to go through a huge spotify playlist we made and catered to the music we like and got people up and dancing. He's not the type of DJ that will be on the mic all night, he just blends in and plays kick ass music. Can't recommend enough!
Everyone at the wedding RAVED about Chris and his song selections. He had the perfect mix of old and new and upbeat and slow songs. We danced all night and had a complete blast! He helped make the night a success and created a great party atmosphere! He was incredibly positive and helpful throughout the entire wedding planning process and quickly responded to any questions or concerns I had. He was a pleasure to work with from start to finish.
DJ Your Way With Chris was absolutely wonderful. From the initial planning to the day of, we did not have to worry about a single thing. He really helped us nail down what we wanted and worked with what we already had in mind. Our music from the ceremony, to cocktail hour, to the very end of our reception was stellar. We got comments all night from our guests how amazing the music was. Chris really worked with the crowd as well as made every special moment (dances, bouquet toss, etc.) absolutely magical. To our wonderful DJ, we truly could not thank you enough!!!
Chris was awesome! He was wonderful from the start! Friendly and personable ! He aims to please ! And he had our guests enjoying themselves the entire time. We were beyond happy and he made our day very special! Would totally use his service again!
DJ Your Way With Chris had our guests out of their seats and on the dance floor all night long! He really is the best. Don't hesitate and book Chris now!
Chris is a fantastic DJ who instantly put us at ease beginning with our phone consultation. He asked great questions about our guests (demographics) and our reception, and made sure every detail was covered. On the wedding day, Chris made sure to come and meet us in person before the festivities started and reassured the nervous bride (me!) that we were in good hands...and we were! He kept our guests dancing the entire night and we couldn't have been happier. I highly recommend him!
Having Chris as our DJ was the best decision! He was great with taking our list of requested songs, using essentially all, if not all of them, during the reception, but also with adding in songs that fit our taste and kept the party going strong! Everyone said it was the most fun wedding they'd been to. He was very communicative with us during the planning process especially towards the end when we were trying to get the final details together and didn't really know what we were doing but he was able to help get us on track with his suggestions that worked out well. He was also super helpful during the ceremony and with the best man/MOH speeches as well. He provided direction for those that were out of their element and kept the night going smoothly.
All in all, thanks to him I spent the majority of my reception on the dance floor having the time of my life!
I had remembered Chris as the DJ from my cousin's wedding 7 years ago. He was the first and only DJ I reached out to. I was so happy that he had my wedding date available and booked him ASAP. Chris was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. He was extremely responsive to every text and email prior to the wedding. Since our wedding last Saturday, SO many guests have commented about the music and how great the DJ was! We had a longer reception than most, but that didn't keep Chris from keeping the party going all night. He was constantly reading the crowd and playing music that catered to all ages. It was amazing! Do not hesitate booking Chris for your reception!
We had something fairly specific in mind for our wedding, something not necessarily easy to achieve, yet Chris was able to deliver exactly what we were looking for. He worked with us throughout the planning process to ensure that he knew what we wanted, and what we didn't want.
Chris is professional, immediately-likable, and more than capable of coming-through on his promises to make your vision of your day a reality. In our case, he made sure the dance floor was packed all night. No crazy laser-lights, smoke, or gimmicks - just absolutely the right songs at the right times to keep everyone on their feet. We've talked to many of our guests since our day and almost every conversation comes back to Chris and how much of the night was spent dancing and loving it.
People rave about Chris, and we can tell you now, it's for good reason. Chris is a really talented DJ, who we highly, highly recommend.
Chris is phenomenal in every way!
We loved working with Chris on the program and music selection. Every time we spoke with him we got more excited about our wedding! Everyone at the wedding loved his energy and enthusiasm. Chris kept everyone dancing and having a wonderful time. The volume was perfect! Chris checked in on us during the day and helped everything run so smoothly. We recommend Chris wholeheartedly!!
Chris was an absolutely amazing DJ. He was helpful and professional from day one all the way until the end. He gave us so many suggestions for planning our wedding that were not even DJ related. He just seemed to love to help and be involved in our wedding. He has such a positive attitude and great energy. If you want your wedding to be a big (but tasteful) party, then Chris is your guy! If I ever need a DJ again, I wont even look anywhere else.
From the first phone call, we knew Chris was the BEST choice for our wedding DJ. He created a custom made first dance, and easily took in all our input to create the perfect playlist. I was prepared with a bunch of questions for the first phone call, but didn't need to even ask them because he shared with me everything I wanted to hear without any prompting! DJ Chris is a complete professional! There was insane energy and dance floor was packed the whole night. We got so many compliments about how the DJ was a blast! Don't think twice-if you want an awesome party, book DJ Chris!
We are so glad we booked Chris for our wedding! He took the time to make sure the music was exactly how we wanted it down to the second cutting down and switching up intro songs and incorporating all the songs we gave him but also going with the vibe of the crowd on the day of. We had the best time at our wedding and the music was such a big part of that. Thank you Chris!! If we’re ever planning a big party and need a dj we know who to call. Absolutely recommend!!
Chris had our guests dancing all night! I found Chris through reviews online and I set up a meeting with him. I’m a pretty organized person that knows what they want so I already had an extensive Do Not Playlist spreadsheet as well as a wish list playlist spreadsheet too. My husband and I were so impressed when we left we KNEW he was our DJ and had to book him. We had such a good feeling and great vibes just from our hour long meeting. I had sent him songs I wanted to use for intros and he had them all queued up to the spots he wanted to use when we got there for our meeting. It was also great that he does weddings at our venue frequently so I was beyond confident that everything would go smoothly. He was full of energy and brought a great vibe to our wedding throughout the night with his personality and skills! I would highly recommend!
Chris was the best DJ we could have asked for! He was super personable and easy to work with from the start. He made sure every moment from before the ceremony to the end of the reception was planned out and perfect. He was always available via text or email when we needed him and he checked in from time to time and made sure we didn’t have any questions. He played every song we requested as well as songs we didn’t even think of. He even cut down our first dance song for us so it would be the perfect length for our dance. The dance floor was full all night and everyone had a great time! Multiple guests told me he played the best music they had heard at a wedding.
I cannot recommend Chris enough and hope anyone considering his services decides to use him. You will not regret choosing DJ Your Way.
Chris was the best of the best! Great ideas about timing of elements of the reception. Intuitive regarding the interests of the wedding guests, and also 'heard' the clues provided by the best man and maid of honor! You would be extremely happy to obtain his services!!
Chris was absolutely fantastic for our 7/13/19 wedding, and we highly recommend him. I wish there were more than 5 stars to give! Throughout our reception we had guests of all ages raving about our playlist and had a full dance floor. He made the night so much fun for everyone! During the planning process Chris was extremely professional and responsive. He thought through every detail of the night and coordinated with our venue so that everything would go perfectly (and it did!). He took the time to speak with us about our music preferences and understand our vision for the night, as well as offer helpful suggestions based on his extensive experience. We cannot say enough good things about Chris. We had read excellent reviews prior to booking Chris, but he managed to exceed all expectations that we had. Thank you, Chris, for making our reception an absolute blast!!
He’s your guy! We knew as soon as we spoke to DJ Chris on the phone that he was our guy. He was so genuine and down-to-earth. Some of the other DJs we spoke to sounded like car salesmen but Chris was honest and friendly. He had done over 50 weddings at our venue so before the wedding he had a lot of great advice on setup and what we’d actually need music or equipment for (and what we didn’t). He gave us suggestions on where to sit people and how to set up tables, what kind of music would work during each event (he even told us we wouldn’t need him for cocktail hour since the venue had good music already - helping us save money), and what worked best for formal/informal settings depending on what we wanted. I LOVED that he was able to guide us but ultimately he left everything up to us and didn’t pressure us into anything since it was our wedding. Based on the ideas he gave us, we knew we could trust him to read the crowd and play stuff we liked. He made sure we were the stars of the show and that we got everything we wanted.
My favorite part - and we had no idea he was going to do this - was when we were introduced at the reception and came down the stairs. He had the whole crowd twirling their white napkins like rally towels. We’re a crowd of big sports fans so this really brought the excitement to a whole new level!
Most importantly, he read the crowd right and played music that kept people on the dance floor all night! We had a weird mix of young and old guests and he was able to cater to both somehow and keep our friends, my parents friends, work friends of all ages, and grandparents out on the dance floor. As a bride, it made it SO much easier for me that he took one thing off my plate knowing that he would make sure the music would fit the crowd and I could see it as everyone was partying on the dance floor. There were lots of sore feet the day after!
Very easy to schedule and talk to! We were planning the wedding out of state and DJ Chris was very accommodating to our availability. He kept everyone on the dance floor and I am so happy he was there to provide us with the music for our special day!
Chris was absolutely amazing. He’s way more than a DJ, he’s also like a day of coordinator. He kept our entire day organized and running smoothly. He truly runs the whole show. From the time we met Chris all the way up to the day of the wedding he was nothing but super friendly, accommodating, and easy to work with. Is personality makes him an absolute natural. He knows exactly how to get people dancing and, more importantly, how to keep people dancing. If I could do it all over I would chose Chris every time.
Chris was a terrific, high-energy DJ who took excellent care of us and our guests throughout the entire day. The music selection was fantastic and kept everyone on the dance floor and energized until the very last song. He was relaxed and fun to work with before the wedding and really listened to what we wanted. He was organized, communicative and professional and helped make our special day absolutely perfect. It was a pleasure getting to know him and we plan to stay in touch. We would highly recommend him to anyone who wants a great DJ for their wedding! If we could give him extra stars, we would!!
Chris was a fantastic DJ and we highly recommend him. He was easy going and quick to respond from the start. One of the main reasons we picked Chris was because we had a large song request list and we wanted someone who was willing to work them in. Chris was great about not only working our songs in, but flagging some that he was concerned may not go over as well as making recommendations on additions. His recommendations were spot on and he kept the dance floor packed the entire night. Chris also brought a great energy to the event and made it so easy for us. I am pretty sure my wife didn't leave the dance floor once. We can't recommend Chris enough!
Chris was reccomended to us by another couple using him for their wedding, from our first meeting to our big day Chris was amazing to work with! He was so helpful and gave us guidance when we weren’t quite sure on things to pick. He always kept our wants in mind when helping us pick music for our wedding day. He was better then we could have ever imagined, from the ceremony, to cocktail hour, to the reception our guests heard amazing music. Us and our guests danced the night away up until the very last song!
AMAZING! DJ Chris was an absolute hit at our wedding a few weeks ago. Aside from waking up with hangovers from the all night party, our guests kept telling us they woke up sore (literally!) from dancing all night long. Our dance floor was packed from the beginning of the night until the very end... and yes, our guests did start a chant for an end-of-the-night encore, which DJ Chris happily obliged!! There was not a stretch of time where the dance floor wasn't completely packed (I think we had to kick people off for our cake cutting...) and he absolutely crushed it with his song selections. But before our wedding even happened we knew we'd picked the best DJ just by the level of energy, responsiveness, and care DJ Chris showed leading up to our big day. He spent hours (literally) on the phone with us discussing music, vibe, flow of the night, age demographic, and really getting a feel for my husband and I and our guests so that he could handcraft a playlist just for us. He listens to what you like - and what you don't like - and also offers super helpful song tips that he knows will get people up and moving. And if our packed dance floor and gushing guests weren't enough, our other vendors also came up to us throughout the night to tell us that this was one of the most fun, dance-filled, parties that they had ever seen. And they see a lot.
DJ Chris, thank you for providing so much fun energy on our big day; for taking the time to get to know us and craft a perfect party just for us, and for keeping our guests happy and dancing all night long!! You're the best!

Thank you very much for your kind words! They really mean a lot to me. Your entire wedding at Ashford was spectacular. I wish you and Erik a lifetime of happiness! Chris
Chris was the DJ for my wedding on 12/1/18 and he was absolutely perfect, and incredibly affordable budget wise.
He provided the music for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and receptions. He helped us plan our timeline of the night, and his knowledge and experience was really helpful in making sure The entire night went smooth, & that all of the music had the perfect flow. He even provided a mic and stand for the ceremony!
We gave him a list of songs to give him the vibe of what we were going for and he absolutely nailed it. Our dance floor was going the entire reception (including dinner).
I could not be happier with my choice to use Chris for the best day of my life.
Chris was the DJ for our wedding in August 2018, and he was exceptional! Chris was the only DJ we met with, and we booked him on the spot. He has a great personality and goes above and beyond to make everything perfect. He did the music for our ceremony and reception. Chris was able to get all the songs that we wanted for our ceremony so that it was perfect. I have never been to a wedding before where the dance floor was crowded the entire evening. I had people come up to me all night to rave about him, and people are still talking about it 3 months later. Chris is great at reading the crowd and plays a perfect mix of different genres to ensure that people of all ages have a great time. I would recommend him to anyone for a wedding DJ. He made the night was unforgettable and the planning process was so easy. Thank you, Chris!!
I honestly cannot say enough great things about Chris! He was our DJ for our wedding on 9/22/2018. From our initial meeting with Chris, we knew he was going to be our DJ. Chris exceeded all our expectations we had in a DJ. We initially met with Chris to discuss our wedding and even though it was a “business meeting,” it was so easy to talk with Chris. He made you feel like you knew him for a long time. He really tried to get to know my wife and myself. His personality made it so easy to chat with. While he was very personable and put our happiness above all else, he was not afraid to give us some guidance when he thought a particular song may fit better somewhere else in the night, or that something may not flow as well as we'd like it to. He worked with us to be sure that we had a reception that not only we loved, but everyone else did as well. On our wedding day, we utilized Chris for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. He went above and beyond on all three. Choosing your wedding DJ is super important because they are the ones that keep the flow of the party going. Chris is 100% the best man for this job. For the entire night, he played the right songs. Trust me when I say this, if you put your trust in Chris, he does not disappoint. We only gave Chris a few no play songs and told him we trust him, he delivered with a spectacular night of dancing. He played all the right songs. We received so many compliments on our DJ from family members whose weddings we’ve been to who said they never danced so much at weddings. Chris was by far worth every penny. We cannot begin to thank Chris for what he did. Our wedding definitely would not have been the same without him and if I had to do this all over again, I'd pick Chris in a heartbeat. And if I ever need a DJ for a future event, I won't hesitate to give him a call! I highly recommend Chris for your weddings.
We hired Chris as our wedding DJ, and he did such an awesome job! From the first time we met him, we knew he was going to be very easy to work with and had an exciting energy that would clearly translates into his music. Chris is extremely responsive--literally emails you back within minutes--and he's all about what the client wants for their particular event. Our guests were up all night dancing, and multiple people told us how great the music and pace of the night were. I would recommend Chris for any wedding or other party event. He is fabulous to work with!
Chris was amazing and if I could give him more than a 5 I would. He did our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception music on 9.29.18. We have gotten so many compliments on how the party was amazing, and the music was awesome he really kept the party alive. He arrived super early to make sure all went to plan, and you could hear crystal clear at the ceremony especially with a few passing cars. Chris knew when to switch songs, and organize the song choices in a way that kept the party going. Chris was very knowledge about music and about how the wedding should go. He gave ideas, and helped with song choices to make sure they went perfect. He helped me and my father plan a surprise dance, without anyone knowing. He even cut the music multiple times for us. He really felt the flow of the music. He helped in any way he could, and made sure we had the best time ever! We can't recommend Chris to enough people!
I was a bridesmaid in my college roommate’s wedding and their DJ was amazing. People did not leave the dance floor the whole night! So when I was planning my July 2018 wedding this was the easiest part. Chris was amazing to work with! He was extremely thorough and helped answer all our questions on the wedding timeline, we gave direction on our music taste and he took over from there. Our guests had an amazing time and are still raving about how much fun our wedding was. Everyone should hire Chris for every event!
BEST BEST BEST! We were so happy with Chris. We had hired him for our daughters wedding four years ago and he was amazing. We had no reservations about having him DJ our sons wedding in July and of course it was perfect. Great music selections, everyone danced the night away. He is friendly, professional, patient and handled the wedding party requests as well as several of my special requests - didn't forget a thing. You cannot go wrong with Chris. Highly recommend him to anyone.
Chris could not have been a more perfect DJ for us and for our wedding. While he was very personable and put our happiness above all else, he was not afraid to give us some guidance when he thought a particular song may fit better somewhere else in the night, or that something may not flow as well as we'd like it to. He worked with us to be sure that we had a reception that not only we loved, but everyone else did as well.
When we got to the reception hall, Chris had already set up shop and was ready to play. While my wife and I were taking photos during cocktail hour, we got several messages from people complimenting us on the music (We asked for some nerdier music to be thrown in, and he ran with it very well).
Directions for the introductions were very clear, and the whole process flowed very well. The remainder of the night was a series of perfect scene transitions. It was obvious that Chris knew our schedule very well, and chose the music to fit what the guests would likely be doing in any given moment.
The highlight of the night was during and after a performance I gave for my wife. I asked Chris to set me up an area to perform a piece on the saxophone. In the process of setting up the logistics a few weeks before, my wife and I informed him of a song and "dance" that became infamous among my bandmates and I in college, many of whom were there that night. After the performance, Chris transitioned from my piece to said song. About 10 of my friends joined me on the dance floor and did a completely impromptu dance, bringing us all back to our college days. While we had requested the song to be played at some point during the night, Chris timed it perfectly because he knew everyone would be watching, and I'd have my saxophone. Everyone in the room was smiling and laughing. It was absolutely perfect.
If I had to do this all over again, I'd pick Chris in a heartbeat. And if I ever need a DJ for a future event, I won't hesitate to give him a call!
Chris was awesome from the very beginning of the night until the end! We were so glad that we chose him as our DJ! He goes over every single detail with you prior to your day so that everything goes exactly as you want it. He was was so detailed and helpful with song choices/questions that we had. We were really able to picture the day before it even happened. Chris exceeded our expectations- he was great!
Chris was AWESOME! Super high energy and listened to every request we had. Lots of guests complimented his music selection and it fit our crowd just right. Definitely recommended!
Chris was absolutely amazing! He definitely knows what he is doing!! He was our DJ for our wedding and he had everyone up dancing (even before dinner)! He is very down to earth and gets just as excited as the bride and groom!! Highly recommend!!! Thank you Chris for making our night one we won’t forget!!!
Chris was the DJ at our wedding earlier this month and I wish I could rate him higher than 5/5- he was the best! Through the whole process he was very professional and easy to work with. He made sure he had all the details in place prior to our big day and went above and beyond to cut down our first dance song for us since it was too long. Chris kept the whole reception flowing smoothly in a really fun and upbeat way. The cocktail hour music was exactly what we wanted and the reception music was awesome. Chris had the dance floor full even before the first course and people didn’t stop dancing until the last song. He had not only our friends, but our parents and their friends dancing the whole night. Family members I’ve never seen dance at weddings were dancing, and even some of our great aunts/uncles got out there. It was hard to leave the dance floor because Chris kept playing one great song after another. I can’t tell you how many compliments I got on the music and people saying they’ve never danced so much at a wedding. Chris did a great job and I can’t recommend him highly enough!
DJ Chris made our wedding an absolutely amazing time. Our wedding guests were of all ages and the flow and variety music had everyone dancing until the very last minute. He was very accommodating to our requests and his feel good personality made the whole experience awesome. We first heard of DJ Chris at our friends wedding which was a great night of dancing and he definitely delivered for ours!
DJ Chris is the BOMB! He had everyone up and dancing the entire night & he was able to include every song request that we had into the night without making it feel like he was just playing songs to make us happy - he truly incorporated them where it felt appropriate/played similar songs around the same time. Everyone was on their feet! Since our wedding I’ve told everyone that I wouldn’t change a thing about the whole day & much of that is due to DJ Chris setting such a fun/lighthearted vibe from the first minute of the day until the last. No one wanted the party to end! In addition to the great night we had with Chris, the planning couldn’t have been easier. From the first conversation we felt so comfortable and trusting of Chris. He made suggestions as we were choosing our songs, referred us to other vendors to help us plan the perfect day & most of all the week before he walked us through detail by detail how the day would pan out. He even did a wonderful job of rolling with the punches when our ceremony/cocktail hour locations changed the morning of the wedding - he was already on top of it before I could even get in touch with him to tell him. If I could give him more than five stars I would! THANK YOU DJ CHRIS!
From the very beginning Chris was amazing to work with. He DJed our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception for an amazing price. He went over everything we wanted and needed. He downloaded songs to make sure we had everything EXACTLY the way we wanted. Chris was very professional about letting us know the best way to go about expediting our entire wedding. He ran through every last detail with us. He never downplayed any of our ideas. He did everything he promised. All night I was getting compliments about how amazing Chris was. He had everyone out on the dance floor all night long. We had people tell us that night that our wedding was the most fun they ever had dancing at a wedding. My cousin even used the hashtag on Instagram #djwaslit! We highly recommend Chris to DJ any event you are having and would use him again in a heartbeat.
Chris is a down to earth easy going guy that listens to everything you want .But if he gives a suggestion about music or the night take his advice he knows what he is doing!! The night of our wedding we were asked a million times were we found our awesome DJ. He takes his job very serious and tries his best to make your night perfect. He doesn’t just show up and play music he gets the crowd pumped and makes sures you stay on schedule.
Prior to the wedding, Chris made it clear we were in good hands! He was responsive, helpful, and made the planning process stress free. Most importantly, our guests were on the dance floor all night!
We could not have selected a better DJ for our wedding than Chris! Chris had so much energy and excitement during our first meeting with him a couple months before. As we shared a couple ideas we had with him (First Dance, final song, etc.) you could tell the creative gears were in motion, and he figured out the perfect way to make everything work.
We are both very big music fans, and therefore we were very particular about what music we wanted to hear. Chris took our (giant) list of selections and worked in most of the songs we wanted to hear, while still being honest about what he thought may not work or not fit. He communicated well with us leading up to the wedding, and was extremely organized heading into the big day.
We wanted a packed dance floor all night, and Chris made that happen! We received a ton of compliments from our guests who loved the music: a good mix of older and newer stuff with the right balance and framing of each song. Chris perfectly executed various touches we wanted: from the father/daughter dance which featured a "polka cut-in" to the final song of the evening, karaoke style. Chris was professional whenever he was on the microphone, keeping his introductions, etc. short and sweet. His sound equipment was top of the line: perfect volume but not too loud for guests who wanted to chat instead of dance.
All in all, Chris was a professional, excellent DJ who helped make our big day incredible. We wanted to have a "party atmosphere" at our reception, and he helped deliver that to us, our family, and our friends. Thanks Chris!
Chris was the DJ for our wedding this November and he is absolutely incredible! He's extremely easy to work with and customized our day to exactly what we wanted! He will play whatever music you want or come up with his own playlist, and he'll talk as much or as little as you want during the reception. He was extremely professional and made our wedding day the most perfect day we could imagine!! He walked us through every moment of the night so we knew what to expect and helped us plan out all the little details of the day. All we wanted was for our guests to have the time of their lives and Chris helped us accomplish just that--the dance floor was packed the entire night! Would HIGHLY recommend him for your wedding or special event! :)
We book DJ Chris Matthews 14 Months before our wedding as he came highly recommended by several friends. He was very supportive and attentive to our wants/needs. We used his services for our Ceremony, Cocktail Hour, & Reception. About a month prior, and 2 weeks prior, we had extensive conversations about our music selections. If you have any reservations about what to play/not to play, just ask him. He is very honest but at the end of the day, he will comply with your style. There was not one dull moment during our reception as at least half of the 115 guests were dancing. I almost wish we could do the day over just to work with him again. By NOT booking DJ Chris Matthews, you're doing your wedding a disservice.
Chris was our favorite vendor to work with! We had been to several weddings that he worked and had a great time at each one, so we knew we definitely wanted him to DJ our wedding. From the very first time we met with him to the very last dance at our reception and everything in between, Chris was awesome! He was so easy to communicate with and was so enthusiastic, which made us even more excited for our big day. We gave him a handful of songs to show our taste in music and then gave him the freedom to do what he wanted, and he designed an absolutely PERFECT playlist. We were so happy with everything. He played every song on our "must play" list, and then chose the perfect songs to keep every one on the dance floor. You know it's a fun wedding when people are on the dance floor before dinner! Chris catered to everything we wanted, and he created a fun and exciting night for us and for our guests! I would highly recommend Chris to all of my family and friends!! I can't wait to attend another one of his weddings!
Beyond amazing and so knowledgeable, professional, and just an overall pleasure to work with. He tailors your needs and ideas and makes them a reality as well as incorporates his innovative styles of entertainment. What a fabulous DJ. Reads the crowd and knows how to keep everyone engaged and having a great time. Chris knows how to time the event and leads the event seamlessly but on schedule. This is our second time experiencing Chris and would do it again and again and again....We have never come across a DJ with the skill that he displays at any other occasion. Thank you Chris for making our day so memorable!
Chris was the DJ for our wedding in September of 2017, and he was absolutely fantastic!!
We first met with Chris about a year before the wedding. From the first meeting we knew he would be a great choice for our wedding. He is very professional, and has a great energy level. We met with other DJ companies before Chris, and they all told us the same thing, that they were not sure who our actual DJ would be until our day was close. With Chris we did not have that problem. We knew he would be the one we planned with throughout the process, and he would be the one there on our day.
We had our wedding in our backyard of our home. Since this was our own home, one of the big challenges was deciding where everything should go (bar, caterer, tables, DJ...etc). Chris was nice enough to come to our house a few months before the wedding to check out the yard with us. As soon as he got there he immediately started firing off his ideas of how the layout should be, and what would work best. We used basically every suggestion that Chris gave us, and he was spot on with every one of them! He is truly an expert in the wedding industry, and he knows exactly how a wedding should be set up and flow.
The actual wedding day turned out to be amazing, and that was hugely thanks to Chris. I am a believer that the DJ is the single most important thing in making a wedding fun, and Chris delivered 100% on that. We had an amazing time at our wedding, and all of our guests complemented how good the music and DJ was. And all of this was at a much better price than the other DJ companies wanted. Seriously, Chris did an amazing job for a price that the other companies could not even touch.
Wedding planning is hard and stressful, but picking the DJ was the easiest part of it all because of Chris. He helped us the entire way, and even went above the duties of a DJ by helping us plan the layout and flow of the day. Do yourself a favor and use Chris for your wedding!!
From the moment I first spoke to Chris on the phone, I liked him immediately. He was so nice, so energetic, easy to talk to, and had a great voice that just pumped excitement through my veins just listening to him. I thought imagine what he'll do at a big party your throwing like a wedding?! My gut instinct told me to just go with him, and I am so glad I did because he made my wedding day the successful, fun, magical event I truly wanted it to be! He did the music for my ceremony flawlessly, listened carefully to everything I wanted, and made it happen. The sound he provided was perfect and crystal clear, no awkward unwanted noises or humming sounds, it was perfect! The reception music, same thing, amazing! He kept the party going, and flowing, and listened to my wants and needs. He was a great DJ, people raved all night about how much fun they had and how he transitioned all these great songs from different decades throughout the night flawlessly! He seriously made the night, and I couldn't be more grateful to him. He is very reasonable in price compared to some other DJ's, so If you don't want to spend a fortune and your not the type to be caught up with all the bells and whistles, and just want to get to the point, which is good music, fun, and a night for people to truly remember then go with DJ Chris Mathews, he will not let you down! He was seriously one of my favorite vendors that I encountered during this wedding planning experience. He always got me pumped and excited when I spoke to him, and kept me at ease when he could tell I was panicking about planning lol. Great guy, will definitely reach out to him again if I need to plan another event.
