Entertainment Excellence

CJ was an awesome DJ! We gave him some songs but he filled in the rest with music that perfectly matched our vibe! Everyone had a blast, would highly recommend him to anyone! He was super professional and helped us picked some of the music for parts of our ceremony.

CJ is the absolute best! I had worked with him in the Wedding Industry prior to booking him for my wedding, so I was lucky to see him at a plethora of weddings. I knew one day I would book him, because he can do it all. Lights, ceremony, party supplies, and amazing DJ'ing. I had very specific songs that jumped in and out at certain times, and he effortlessly executed this. The dance floor was packed for every single minute of the reception. He did a great job of incorporating our requests with his own spin...and he nailed it. He is also amazing to plan with because he is responsive, adaptable, and creative. He helped plan an anniversary dance dedicated to my parents, a traditional Polish money dance, and a surprise video! You cannot go wrong booking him.

We hired DJC for our wedding and don’t regret one single thing. He was AWESOME. My husband said it best - it wouldn’t have been the same party without DJCJ. He’s professional and super responsive. The worksheet that he provided is incredibly organized and super helpful. So many of our guests commented on how great our DJ was, especially the way he live mixed the music. He really kept the party going all night. You don’t need to look any farther to find the perfect DJ for your wedding - you’ve found him in DJCJ.

We hired CJ after having two completely unrelated people recommend him and now that my wedding is over, I can understand why! First of all CJ, is quick to respond which is key when you're making last minute changes to things only a few days before the wedding. He is also super organized and provided us with a Google Doc to list out what songs we wanted for certain events and what songs we definitely didn't want played. He is also great at hyping up the crowd and keeping people on the dance floor. We were also able to add a photo booth to our contract which allowed us to to limit the number of vendors we had! The photo booth was great and you can fully design the filters, background and photo strip, people LOVED it.

CJ is the absolute best!! If you have the opportunity to book you, jump on it! He really takes the time to know the couple beforehand and walks you through everything. His wedding worksheet make planning so much easier than expected. He gets you everything well in advance so you have plenty of time to work on it. During our wedding, he was amazing, kept everyone on the dance floor and worked the crowd well. So many of our guests raved about him after the reception.

If DJ CJ is available for your date, book him now! I never needed to hire a DJ before so I was unsure about so many things during the planning process but CJ made it so easy. The interactive google doc was awesome because I had so much time to make adjustments and add songs and information about our day. He was responsive and asked me questions I would not have thought of. I handpicked most of our songs but highly recommend also giving him some artistic freedom. We had such a blast dancing at our wedding, he made personalized mixes of both my (bride) and groom's favorite music and threw in lots of throwbacks. He did a phenomenal job of reading the room and keeping the energy up. Aside from his fantastic DJ'ing skills, CJ also was on top of our audio and scheduling needs from the officiant and speech mics to keeping the wedding on track and making announcements. His professionalism is unmatched and all of my guests were so impressed. Booking entertainment excellence was one of the best decisions we made for our August wedding.

CJ was so wonderful to work with! To start, he was the only DJ that we spoke with in our beginning search who actually asked us about ourselves, and got to know and understand us. We really felt he provided a tailored experience to us as a couple and our musical tastes, as well as blending with popular/easy-to-dance to songs throughout the evening. Throughout the process, CJ was professional and prompt to respond to my many questions and changes! He kept the timeline moving and the dancefloor full and worked easily with our other vendors. Entertainment Excellence is just that--top tier!

Could not have asked for a better DJ for our wedding than CJ! From the start, he was extremely responsive, professional, and eager to help/answer questions. I had a TON of songs that I wanted to hear and he mixed every single one of them perfectly. CJ was also extremely kind and timely with every phone call, question, and discussion. I would highly recommend him to anyone searching for their wedding!

CJ was hands down the best DJ we've ever worked with! Planning was a breeze with him, and he kept us in the loop every step of the way. From the ceremony to the cocktail hour and the reception, everything was PERFECT. Our guests were on their feet all night, saying it was the best wedding music they've heard at a wedding in years. If you want someone who will guide you from start to finish, listen to and execute every detail, and totally rock your wedding, CJ is your guy! We can't thank you enough CJ for making our wedding day one to remember! - Johnna and Logan Dubbe (Chesapeake Bay Beach Club)

We LOVED DJ CJ. He’s the reason you go with a DJ instead of a band for a wedding. He was communicative and collaborative the entire time. We made him a Spotify playlist to give him an idea of the songs we would like and told him to feel free to put a spin on it/do remixes and live mixing and he did NOT disappoint. Never once was the dance floor dead and he mixed songs together that you would’ve never expected but caused so much excitement. Can’t recommend him more and will to anyone getting married in the DMV area.

DJ CJ is the GOAT! He is professional, fun, and easy to work with. All it took was a 30 minute chat the week before our wedding and everything was perfect. He picked songs we loved that fit our style. He seamlessly blended classic and new, country and pop, to create a perfect dance party. All night long people told me how amazing the DJ was as they got down on the dance floor!

I feel so lucky to have found CJ via this website. He was incredibly helpful and personable during the planning leading up to our wedding day. He was incredibly organized and helped the day flow extremely well. Once the dance floor opened, I didn't leave it. Despite giving him a list of songs we wanted to hear, he mixed them so well, I never knew what was next. We received so many compliments on our DJ, can't recommend him enough.

CJ was an amazing DJ! He was super flexible for my wedding day with the addition of my MOH surprising me! He is also super flexible in how much you want to be involved with the music selection and easy to get in contact with! Highly recommend!!

CJ was the best DJ! He checked in with us multiple times before the wedding to make sure he knew what songs we wanted for the wedding. When we were unsure of something he provided suggestions. We fully trusted CJ to select additional songs and mix songs together. If we ever need a DJ in the future I will definitely be reaching out to CJ. One of our wedding guests came up to us during the wedding and said if she could do her wedding all over again she would have CJ as her DJ. All of our guests were dancing the whole night!

Phenomenal DJ Experience with CJ! We recently had the pleasure of having CJ as the DJ for our wedding, and we cannot express how thrilled we are with his outstanding service! CJ went above and beyond to make our special day even more memorable. CJ's attention to detail was impeccable. From our initial meeting to the actual event, he took the time to understand our musical preferences, the flow of the ceremony, and the atmosphere we wanted to create. His meticulous planning truly set him apart and put us at ease for the wedding day. His professionalism was evident throughout the entire process. CJ was punctual, well-prepared, and seamlessly coordinated with our location and vendors. His ability to read the crowd and adjust the playlist accordingly kept the energy high and the dance floor packed all night. Our wedding day was made extra special thanks to CJ's expertise and dedication. We highly recommend him to anyone seeking a DJ who not only delivers exceptional music but also brings a level of professionalism and ease to the entire experience.

Again another awesome wedding event !!! Did my daughters in 2019 and mine was just as fun and engaging !! Came well prepared !!! Communication and professionalism outstanding!! Thanks CJ

We had an amazing wedding day. Our guests raved about our music and uplighting. CJ is super professional, organized, prompt, and all around amazing. Everything was perfect.

CJ was the most incredible DJ for my wedding! He was so easy to work with and coordinate with ahead of the wedding. He had everything prepared and accessible to set up ahead of time as well! During the event, CJ worked all night long reading the room. He responded to the audience's response and changed his style based on the crowd's response and involvement. He was so attentive to everyone, especially me and my now husband. He interacted with the crowd all night and brought out such a fun, engaging, and party atmosphere! He kept our interests in mind and exceeded our expectations! I cannot say enough amazing things about him and his work!!

Wow wow wow! CJ was the perfect DJ for our big day! He was professional, helpful, and made sure the entire day ran smoothly. If you need a wedding DJ, look no further! Thank you for making our wedding day PERFECT, CJ.

DJ CJ was incredibly professional, easy to work with, and fun. We would recommend him 100 times over!!!

Kenny Mitchell (DJ K-Swift) DJed our 10/14/23 wedding. Kenny was great - leading up to the wedding, he was responsive and easy to work with. On the wedding day, he really followed our requests perfectly - best of all, he knew how to read the crowd! He picked great songs and mixed them effortlessly - people were on the dance floor all night long! Highly recommend!

CJ was recommended by our wedding venue (Herrington On The Bay) & he did NOT disappoint. What an amazing experience from the beginning. He was very responsive - checked in regularly as needed and took 2 exit songs we wanted and put them together! & when we asked him to "read the room" with music he did just that! We recommend CJ 100% for all your DJ services!

CJ did such an amazing job as our wedding DJ!! He’s so talented, responsive, professional, and handled our playlists and song choices so perfectly. He edited songs exactly as we wanted them, and made sure that our wedding music went flawlessly! We highly recommend CJ!!

As a wedding vendor and musician myself, I can say that CJ is the best DJ I've encountered--and at such a reasonable price, too! After meeting with 10 different DJ vendors, I booked him back in late 2022 for our September 1 2023 waterfront wedding on the Chesapeake, and he has since stayed communicative, and also sent us promotions and deals we could take advantage of for add-ons such as uplighting, cold sparks, party lights, etc. Not only was Entertainment Excellence the best bang for our buck, but now that our wedding is over, we cannot stop talking about how incredible CJ was. He mixes songs incredibly well so that there's no mismatch in beats/rhythms - this was the biggest deal for me. There's been a lot of DJs I've encountered where they'll have clunky transitions, or they'll play the beginning parts of songs where there's no beat, which makes people leave the dance floor because of the 'downtime.' CJ made sure that did not happen! In the early stages of planning, he will send you a spreadsheet template that has everything he needs from you. I gave him Spotify playlists that I had compiled myself for cocktail hour, for dinner, and for the reception dancing. (Note: he does use non-explicit versions of songs, so if you happen to have explicit versions, he'll find the clean version for you, or do the mixing well enough that expletives are not heard!). I did not hire a wedding planner and did all the planning myself, and CJ was actually instrumental in helping me with the event flow. He made the effort to track me down to make sure my husband and I were ready for the next thing in the event before he announced them, from party entrances to special dances (e.g. father/daughter or mother/son dances) to speeches. Our wedding was 5:30pm-10pm, and though we only booked him for cocktail hour (6-7pm) and reception (7-10:30pm), he let us use his mics for the ceremony beforehand. His mics were high quality - NO feedback, static, or poor volume balance, which was critical during our vows and the speeches. Our cocktail hour was outdoors on a rooftop, and the reception was indoors, and he was able to set up for both areas for a seamless transition. The two vendors we could not stop raving about were our photographer/videographer and our DJ. They will make or break your wedding experience, in my opinion. Hire CJ & Entertainment Excellence for your DJ/emcee services! Everyone was impressed with how smoothly our wedding went, and although I'd like to take credit for having planned the wedding myself, I know that a lot of it had to do with CJ and his event pacing. I'm extremely happy with Entertainment Excellence and CJ's services.

We hired CJ to DJ our ceremony and reception and couldn't have had a better experience! He was very professional and easy to talk to. He was responsive and made us feel so confident going into our big day. I could not recommend him enough!

Was amazing to work with. Very professional and friendly. Edited our first dance song perfectly and was able to have the dance floor full the entire night. Also seamlessly worked alongside our pianist for the ceremony & cocktail hour. He exceeded expectations and multiple guests said he was great. Couldn’t recommend enough.

Look no further! We LOVED working with DJ CJ!! He’s friendly, professional and really knows his stuff! He gave us so many recommendations for our music lists, and ensured it matched not only our tastes but also our guests. He also able to accommodate our unique music/ entertainment need, including a belly dancer and Balinese dancers for our multi- cultural wedding! Thank you so much CJ for making our wedding day so fun and memorable!!

Cj was the best DJ!!! He is professional, fun, responsive, and knows how to keep the party on the dance floor. We had multiple guests at our wedding ask for his contact information for their future wedding and afterwards everyone was saying how amazing the dj was. I can’t recommend him enough. I had a lot of requests when it came to music and the little details, and he executed everything perfectly. I didn’t have to worry about the flow of the reception because he had it under control. If you’re considering booking him- do it!!

CJ with Entertainment Excellence was so amazing from start to finish. He was communicative, friendly, professional, and always willing to answer any questions we had. He was able to take the example playlist I made and elevate it so that we had the most magical experience. Guests were raving about the music and the good vibes all night long. We cannot recommend Entertainment Excellence (especially DJ CJ) enough!

CJ was great to work with from the start. He was easy to work with, provided suggestions and answered all our questions! The wedding night he kept everyone on the dance floor and over a month later, everyone is talking about him!

CJ was an absolute professional from start to finish. With so many other things to worry about during the wedding planning process, we always knew we could count on CJ to do what he does best. The easiest vendor hire we made! CJ kept us on schedule, he was able to adjust to whatever was happening, and most importantly he kept the party going all night. Our guests are still talking about him. He played all of our requests and filled in the rest of the time with great song choices. CJ has so many five star reviews for a reason! Book him for all of your events, he’s the best DJ in the DMV. Thank you, CJ!!

CJ was awesome leading up to the wedding. He was very patient and will do whatever you want to make your day perfect! He made sure the bride and groom were taken care of, there isn't more I could ask for!

Professional DJ and MC. Very responsive and flexible to the needs and wants for the wedding. DJ CJ knows how to read the room and energy of the dance floor and makes sure everyone has a good time. He is able to make changes on the fly, whether it's a suggestion/ remix for music or a change of plans for any announcements needed while being the MC. I highly recommend.

CJ was incredible to work with! Far and away our most responsive vendor, his attentiveness to detail, flexibility, and general professionalism made a stressful event significantly better. CJ delivered on every promise, creating a custom curated playlist with natural transitions and thoughtful ordering. We also had several specific requests (including a custom, five minute mashup of our do-not-play list) that he absolutely crushed! Everyone at the wedding had something great to say about CJ and I've already passed his information along to several friends. I could not recommend CJ highly enough!

CJ was the absolute best. He was extremely communicative throughout the entire process leading up to our wedding and on our actual wedding night, he killed it! We had many people comment on how consistently lively and energetic the dance floor was the whole night. I could not recommend him enough - he was quite possibly our favorite vendor to work with. 10/10!

DJ Kenny from Entertainment Excellence was top notch! He was very thorough in the meetings prior to our wedding and really took the time to get to know us. It felt as though he was more our friend then vendor on the day of. We had lots of guest comment to us after the wedding how much fun they had and how much they enjoyed DJ Kenny and his song picks. I was very nervous when choosing the DJ for our wedding as the dancing is my favorite part of a reception. DJ Kenny was very easy going, understood my vision and was easy to collaborate with. And any details I forgot (there were a few – sorry Kenny!) DJ Kenny was able to roll with the punches and get the job done! Our wedding would not have been the success it was without DJ Kenny!

DJ CJ was a great choice as our wedding DJ. He was a very well prepared and thoughtful planner, which made the coordination for day of festivities move very smoothly. He brought great energy, fun, and professionalism to his work, which helped everyone young and old have a great time!

Extremely easy to work with, prompt and professional.

DJ CJ is the best! He was recommended to us by a few friends and after our initial meet with him, we knew he was our guy. He’s got so much experience and we were able to give him a few basic requests, but mostly just let him do his thing and our dance floor was poppin all night. We had guests of all ages dancing away. He was very communicative, happy to offer advice and just overall so easy to work with. We knew we were in good hands and got comments from our other vendors on how fun our wedding was. We actually went to another wedding a few months before ours where he was the DJ and he rocked it there also. I can’t recommend him enough!

Highly recommend DJ CJ! Hired him for our 10-28-22 wedding. He was always responsive, professional, and friendly. He provided a worksheet that was very helpful for planning, and was always open to chat to ensure we were on track. CJ is open to running with some of your favorite genres, or playing a curated list of your favorites. We went the curated route and he incorporated all of our requests, with an impeccable flair for mixing and mashing songs. CJ also was not at all intrusive- he made event-related announcements, but was not constantly chatting/promoting. We got so many compliments about how it was the best, most constant dance party ever, which is exactly what we wanted. Thank you, CJ!

I received DJ CJs name from another wedding I had attended and knew from that day whenever I got married I would go with him. When the time came I reached out to him while I was in a different time zone and he quickly responded despite how late it was. Throughout the whole process he was very professional- setting aside time to call, answer all questions, and was very accommodating with the acoustic music performer I had for cocktail hour offering him equipment and whatever else he may need. When the day of comes he is dressed very professionally. He knows when to change the music over to keep everyone on the dance floor and helps keep the night moving at the perfect pace. Along with is awesome DJ skills, I had always wanted to rent cold sparks for our grand entrance but could not find anyone with them until I book DJ CJ. His entertainment add-ons were the perfect touch for our fairy tail wedding.

DJ CJ was a hit at our wedding! We knew he would be after our initial consultation, but when your guests are chanting “DJ! CJ! DJ! CJ!” after the last song, you know you picked a winner. CJ was incredibly professional, helpful, and responsive through the entire wedding planning process. He was a vendor I didn’t worry about for one second! He navigated our unconventional venue like a pro and kept the dance floor busy all night. He went above and beyond to make our vision come to life! Thank you, CJ!
