C & J Entertainment Agency

We had Nathan as our DJ for my wedding. He was absolutely amazing. He was helpful in picking out certain music. He played music that he knew the crowd would like. Our dance floor was packed all night. He was dressed perfectly and nice as can be! I will recommend him to everyone!!! Thanks Nathan you made our wedding a huge success!!

I couldn't be happier with the service I received from C and J Entertainment. From the very beginning with deciding on songs and timelines, they were spectacular. Everyone that we worked with in preparations was helpful, accommodating, and very knowledgeable. Having their assistance and advice alleviated a lot of my stress. At the actual reception, our DJ Lenny was great. We had an issue with timing because the mother of the groom wasn't going to be available on time for the mother-son dance, and he quickly and easily just made some adjustments so that everything worked out flawlessly. It was a great reception and a lot of the credit has to go to Lenny.

C&J Entertainment was wonderful to work with throughout the wedding planning process. We met beforehand to go over song choices and they had great suggestions and had a clear understanding of the vibe we were trying to convey through the music. Karl was our DJ and he followed up with us the week prior and was readily available the day before when I had last minute changes! He kept everything on track and would update me throughout the wedding to give me advanced noticed before we transitioned to something (i.e. father/daughter dance, cake cutting, etc) to ensure I was ready. He did a great job with the crowd and we had a packed dance floor the entire time!

We got a great deal with this company. They are reasonably priced and very professional. Our DJ Nathan was great. Most of my guests at my wedding were older folks because it was mainly family and then probably about 20 people out of the 90 were younger couples and friends we had invited. Nathan played music for all age groups and was really good at getting everyone up there to dance. Although most of the older folks were more into jazz and classical which was our music during dinner, Nathan knew how to get the older floks up there at least a couple of times and for the first few dances, after that it was more the younger crowd. If you want a company that is affordable, very professional and accommodating, then I would recommend C&J Entertainment. If you go with them ask for Nathan or Chris because they are the main DJ's and do a great job. Thanks again Nathan we really enjoyed having you.

Going with C&J was definitely our "Wedding Splurge". After meeting with Chris, My husband and I knew we needed to have these guys at our wedding and we moved ALOT of money around in our budget so that we could have them. Chris is hilarious and had tons of ideas for songs we could do for various dances. He gave us a rough outline of the timing of our event and assured us that who ever was our DJ would make sure that the event ran smoothly. Chris spent a lot of time with us planning songs and making sure we were comfortable with everything. We ended up having Carl as our DJ and he WAS AWESOME!! He played all of the songs that we wanted, did not play the songs we did not want and selected songs appropriate for our guests. Our dance floor was crowded the entire night because he just continually played great songs. This however, is not the main reasons why we loved Carl so much. First of all, both my husband and I have difficult last names to say. I was worried that he would pronounce our names wrong but he made sure that he said everyones names correctly. Secondly, Carl was great because throughout the night he would continually communicate to my husband and I on how we thought things were going and also what songs and events were coming up. For example at one point in the night when we were dancing he came up to us and said "alright guys I am going to play two more songs and then we will do the cake cutting.. hows that sound to you?" It was nice that he was constantly receptive to our feedback and was flexible. Lastly, Carl did something that was SO very special to my husband and I. In my father's toast he mentioned how important NC State (our alma mater) was because that is where we met and spent most of our relationship, although we no longer live in North Carolina. By the time toasts were over, Carl had somehow found our fight song on the internet and played it while we were finding our seats for dinner. This is something we could have never TOLD Carl to do but something he did because he is amazing at his job. I would highly recommend C&J. They are definitely worth the money.

Awesome! Perfect! Choose them! Seriously. Exceptionally professional, responsive to requests, and impeccable judgement when filling in the gaps. New Year's Eve wedding comes with great expectations. C&J exceeded all of them, and we all danced the night away to perfect music. Thank you!

Our DJ Marc went above and beyond to make everything exactly as we wanted it to be. He was even able to find obscure songs at the last minute to help the MOH with her speech, (after checking with us to make sure it was what we wanted!) Overall, he made the night great without requiring us to do anything. We did not want many of the typical DJ-based activities (garter toss, first dances, etc) and he did not force the issue. He was great to work with and we recommend him and C&J very highly. (We had him for five hours, plus additional A/V equipment for our cocktail hour AND ceremony.)

C&J Entertainment did an excellent job! The dance floor was always packed and they did a great job of playing a variety of music for all ages. Everyone at the wedding complimented the DJ and said he was the best. Chris was great to work with, quality of equipment was great, the sound was excellent in high ceiling venue (no echoing) and very friendly. I would highly recommend C&J Entertainment.

Karl was our DJ and he was fantastic. Mid-wedding we requested that he play things that deviated from our list and he was happy to oblige. Before he made any changes he ran it past me (the bride) to double check if it was ok. Karl was very classy and kept the mood in a very "party" atmosphere, but without being intrusive. I had a great experience and am so happy with the music at our reception!

Chris Temple from C&J Entertainment absolutley made our wedding the best day ever!! We had seen Chris at a friends wedding and never left the dance floor. After our wedding, the only complaint from family and friends was that the dance floor wasn't big enough. From toe tapping cocktail hour music to classy dinner music to getting people out and enjoying the mood of the event .. there is no doubt we picked the perfect DJ! We wouldn't have changed a thing!!! Do it, you won't regret it!

Very easy to work with
Listened to what we wanted and did a great...

From the beginning C & J was extremely professional. Chris took us through the schedule of the night and helped us in choosing songs that would help everyone to have fun. At the actual wedding, multiple people approached me on the dance floor and asked how we found the DJ and that the music was amazing!! We added an extra hour to our reception and we are SOOO glad we did. We basically had to kick people out by the end of the night. No one was ready to stop dancing. One of my favorite parts of the night was watching my in laws dancing their butts off on the dance floor which is something I never would have thought would happen. Chris set the mood for the whole night and made my reception exactly what I wanted it to be: an amazing party with every person I love in the world!

I highly recommend Chris Temple and C&J Entertainment for DJ services. Our experience at my daughter's wedding was AWESOME!!!! Chris was amazing and helpful from the first contact we made last December. He's great to work with and I greatly appreciate his professionalism, attention to every detail, flexibility and overal expertise. At the wedding, he played great music and transitioned well from cocktail hour and the reception. My guests commented on how great our DJ was and asked for his name. Chris truly Rocked the evening!!!!

Working with Chris and Nathan were a blast. We just loved our DJ Lenny. He did an awesome job, the dance floor was hot all 5 hours of our reception. Guest came to me at the end and said how great everything was but the DJ really brought it all together. Thanks guys!!!

We had a great experience with C&J. After reading numerous great reviews and meeting with Chris one time, we signed on with them right away. Chris is knowledgeable and experienced and gave us a lot of great suggestions and things to think about. Nathan was our DJ for the wedding and he was also great to work with. I had a number of phone conversations and email communications with him the week of the wedding to nail down all the details. We requested a custom song mix that they put together for us and even tweaked a few times until it was just right. The day of the wedding went great and our dance floor was packed all night. I was really impressed with the quality of the sound and how Nathan would check in with me from time to time to make sure everything was to my liking. Our whole event was running behind, but we still fit everything in and had plenty of time for dancing. We have since received a number of compliments on our DJ and songs played at our wedding.

Many of my guests asked if I picked every song because they fit us so well and made for a great evening. I was pleased to confess that the DJ picked almost every song! Will recommend them to anyone

Chris was fantastic!! He Helped select music and was able to seamlessly add our Greek dance songs into our top 20.
Even my "your not using a band" in laws had a great time!

We were so pleased that we hired C & J Entertainment for our reception and especially pleased with our DJ Nathan. From booking to reception C&J is a class act. We had a mixed of age groups and Nathan kept the entire recption lively with just the right mix of songs to suit everybody. He was so helpful with information and set up, that everything went so smoothly I didnt have to give it a second thought, I could just focus on what a wonderful day it was! I dont plan on getting married again but if I do I'll be using C & J!

It was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding to use C & J. We had Chris and he was absolutely the best! We had our wedding during Hurricane Irene, had to move the time up by 4 hours, and were on the water. Through it all Chris was amazing and had such a great attitude. He even suggested we play "Rock me like a hurricane", which we ended up using for introductions. He was great to work with and got everyone dancing (of all ages and different styles of music). We briefly lost power (because of the hurricane) and when the power came on, the first thing everyone heard was "I got the power" song. It helped make what could have been a very nervous environment, light-hearted and fun.
Best company and DJ ever. Trust me, you want to choose them!

We had first seen Chris at a friend’s wedding (he was great ) so we knew we would use his company. I didn’t even do any research on DJ's. Our DJ Lenny was beyond awsome.Our wedding was in the middle of hurricane Irene, due to the storm my reception venue on Kent Island actually cancelled my reception the day before so up until the last minute we weren’t sure if we would be able to find a replacement venue. We found a golf course that agreed to stay open during the storm and Lenny showed up. He played every song we had gone over, and even though we had to change up and improvise some things he was really flexible. We got so many compliments on how great he was and everyone was dancing all night .Thank you for making a bad situation into an awesome party!

My sister in law used Chris Temple at her wedding and I just had to have him! I was prepared for an outstanding delivery at wedding, but he also gave me an unforgetable experience as far as planning it up until. He is so great to work with, he is funny and tells you like it is! I received TONS of compliments after my wedding about my DJ. If you don't want a phony DJ, then go with C&J!

Chris was awesome!! The wedding was so much fun and the party never stopped going. He played an awesome variety of music and the dance floor stayed crowded the entire evening. We are so glad that we went with him for our wedding.

We had Karl from C&J DJ our wedding on August 6, 2011 and couldn't have been happier! We had Karl for our cocktail hour and reception. He played a great mix of music that kept everyone dancing the entire night, starting from older music to more recent songs. We got so many compliments on our DJ, and several friends asked for our DJ's information so they could use them in their wedding. We had a great time at our reception, due in large part to Karl being so easy going and friendly. He greeted us as soon as we arrived at the reception and made sure things went smoothly. We would absolutely recommend C&J to anyone planning a wedding!

My husband and I would gladly recommend C & J Entertainment to anyone planning a wedding. The process was organized and made us feel at ease that everything would be taken care. DJ Chris was always professional and helpful and even able to assist us with a special song. We received so many compliments at our wedding about how awesome our DJ was. Would definitely use again for other events.

Chris was amazing!!! He kept me on schedule during the reception. Everyone loved the music and couldn't stop dancing. Everything went flawless! If you are looking for a DJ, Chris is your guy. He'll take great care of you from initial meeting to the big day.

C & J is a great company! We met with Chris months before the wedding and he got us so excited for the big day! Karl was our DJ and he called the week of the wedding to ensure that he had the agenda correct. He was understanding of the music I wanted played & was very professional the day of the wedding. He always came up to me & my husband before a particular event would happen during the reception just to give us a heads up. I am very satisfied with C & J!!

Chris helped us so much in the early stages and with picking our songs. Marc was our DJ and he nailed it, the dance floor was packed all night long! COuldnt have asked for anything more from C&J!

We are extremely happy that we had C&J Entertainment as our DJ for our ceremony and reception. We were a bit overwhelmed with choosing the music for the entire wedding, but Chris was so helpful throughout the entire process, making it less stressful for us! From meeting with us 2 times, Chris knew exactly what we wanted and it turned out even better than I expected! The dance floor wasn't empty the entire night and we had so many comments on how awesome the music was! I would definitely recommend C & J Entertainment to any bride. We can't wait to have another party some day to have them DJ for us!

If you are searching for an awesome DJ for your wedding, STOP LOOKING!! You found him. Chris was our DJ and from the moment we met him, i knew he would do an amazing job. He was completely flexible on what songs to play, allowed us to provide a very detailed list of songs to be played and not played, and even did a little extra sound clip for our custom slide show (thanks again Chris). Our entire wedding was picked up and dropped off by coach buses so people did not leave early and he was able to keep everyone of all ages dancing the entire night by skillfully mixing in new songs for our age group and older songs for our parent's and their friends. There is nothing negative to say about Chris as a DJ and it is no wonder he and his company are ranked so highly on this website. He was amazing and completely a pleasure to work with. Thanks again for everything. David & Lauren

Marc did an excellent job keeping the party going and the guests dancing! That really set the mood for the night and it couldn't have been any more fun. He had a great time and therefore the guests had a great time. He was extremely professional and friendly and went out of his way to ensure our musical needs were met. We are very glad we chose C&J Entertainment for our wedding!

Just had my wedding on June 18th and our DJ was amazing! He called me a fews days before to review songs and how to pronounce names. During the reception he kept us on schedule, had a great attitude and was very entertaining. C&J were very helpful through the whole process and made great recommendations for the flow of the reception. I would recommend them to everyone and use them again!

Excellent work!

Chris Temple was fun to work with and had many bands from which we could choose. We loved the band we chose and received many compliments from our guests on how good they were. The band was Millennium. Chris was also hepful in helping us choose the ceremony music.

Chris from C&J was the perfect choice for our wedding. He did our ceremony music which was perfect and our reception music. He has a ton of energy and played exactly the right songs at the right time. He kept the party going all night and the dance floor packed. Our guests keep telling us what a great time they had and Chris played a huge part in that. I would highly recommend Chris to other couples looking for a DJ.

Our DJ, Marc, was wonderful! He called me a few days before the wedding to be sure he had all of the information he needed from us and the correct pronunciation of the names of the bridal party members.

Our venue took much longer than expected to serve lunch to our guests, but Marc managed to fit everything in. He was a pleasure to work with :) All of our guests had a great time.

Lenny was a great DJ, very happy with C & J Entertainment. Polite, professional, and reasonably priced.

Chris was our Deejay for our wedding. We had a blast, the dance floor rocked all night long. I wanted to do a special dance with my Dad that included 3 very different songs and Chris did a great mix for us.
He understoond exactly the type of music my husband liked and gave us some great suggestions. Everyone at the wedding had the best time. We would highly recommend Chris to anyone looking for a great Deejay

Chris was awesome! He was fun and easy to work with! He had great suggestions and played excatly our kind of music!! We would absolutley use Chris again!!!!

Music was one of our most important parts of our wedding. We are both music lovers and wanted to make sure we found the right person to set the mood right yet make sure that it represented us. We picked the right company. We chose Chris Temple as our dj. We wanted someone who was professional and would follow through with our requests. We got more than that. We got someone who was fun, crazy, and listened to exactly what we wanted for our reception. I later found out (during the year of preparing for our wedding) that a friend of mine from gradeschool used Chris too and said he was awesome! She highly recommended him and said we would be pleased with this services.

Chris was great with keeping us on time with different things. If we didn't have him doing that, we would have never been able to do all of the things we wanted to do during our reception. If you go with this company, choose Chris. He is worth the money and does an awesome job!

We worked with Chris from C and J Entertainment and he was awesome. He had our guests out on the dance floor all night. He knows how to read a crowd and keep them entertained and dancing. Chris was great to work with, always available and friendly. He made sure everyone had fun and included the songs we wanted to hear. He was a lot of fun and we were very happy to work with him. We also worked with him to acquire strings for the ceremony. They were great as well. He was able to help us with any musical aspect we needed.

if it werent for DJ Chris we woulda been lost and soo off schedule. Arrived early. Called me to let me know he was there. Never had to really worry. He was always 2 steps ahead of us. Experience counts for much!! Thanks Chris. Your the Best!! C & J Entertainment did my photography too! Pics and vids. Incredible!!

We had an extremely fun wedding reception. Chris provided an awesome atmosphere and kept the party going. Great musical suggestions too!

Karl was so great DJ. He had all of our wedding guest up and dancing on the dance floor. Including my husband’s grandfather and my great uncle both of who are in there later years in life. For all you future brides out there select a dj service that you fill comfortable with. My husband and I wanted a DJ who would listen and work to make your day special. Karl and C&J made that possible.

Bravo !!!! Once again you gave me a great experience for my vow renewal event this past feb..... I have used you all for all of my events and you give it 100 percent everytime !!!! I refer you to my friends and family and anyone who will listen !!!! You all are the best and will not use anyone else !!! No matter what the situation you will stand behind the customer and give you every cent worth back !!!! Love you all !!!!!

Our DJ was fantastic! He worked with us to make sure he included all the songs we wanted to hear and made great suggestions so that the reception flowed smoothly. Our families love to dance so it was really important that we had an upbeat wedding and DJ Marc did a great job of getting everyone onto the dance floor and having a good time.

We worked with Karl for our wedding at the Governor Calvert House (which is kind of an odd space, however beautiful), and it was wonderful. The pricing was reasonable, and Karl was easy to work with once we were assigned to him. We went over our list of songs, he made a few suggestions and had some input here and there (but not at all pushy).

During the reception, he filled in whatever blanks we had with suitable choices, had fun with the song selections without ignoring our requests and do-not-plays. When someone requested a song that we had listed as DNP, he found one of us to ask if he should play it or not. He absolutely understood what we were looking for, and delivered it.

AND, unlike some DJs at weddings I have been to recently, he did not hog the mike, force stupid games upon guests, talk too much, too loudly, or too little. Really, perfect. Thank you Karl!!

Beforewe even chose C&J Entertianment, Christopher helped us in laying out a schedule, recommending good songs (and he made a great deal of recommendations that we ended up using!), helping us make selections for the various slots of time in the wedding day. We felt very well taken care of and, of course, chose them to be our DJ.
Marc, our DJ at C&J was outstanding. He worked with us until the last minute to make sure we had all the music we wanted... and I mean last minute. He arrived early and had plenty of time to set up and he even helped unload supplies from my bridesmaid's car and set up our homemade centerpieces. Right before he began playing music for the ceremony my then-fiance was giving him songs we liked. He found songs we wanted that most DJs hadn't heard of. He talked with us frequently before the wedding to ensure we had everything we needed and he did this while still taking care of his other scheduled events. He did it all, and he didn't miss a beat. At one point when champagne went flying all over the dance floor, he was looking after the safety of our guests before taking care of his own equipment. And afterwards he was nothing but professional about the mishap.
Marc played everything we wanted and did so seamlessly... Some of our songs came with specific instructions - for example, I wanted him to play a particular song for my dad an I at a good time in the night when we were both close by the dancefloor. He remembered everything.
C&J entertainment went above and beyond to make our wedding day special and I know they would do the same for any bride. I highly recommend Marc and C&J entertainment!! Thank you again Mark!!!

Chris from C&J Entertainment did an amazing job as DJ during our wedding.
He is a pleasure to work with. He has a great sense of humor and truly caterers to your own personal style of music. He is very knowledgeable about the types of music for all ages that will keep a party going and has creative ideas. He really knows how to bring constant energy to a party! Chris helped make our wedding run very smoothly and all of our guests really enjoyed and were impressed with our wedding and the music. We highly recommend C&J Entertainment for a wedding DJ!

Chris DJ'd at our wedding in Alexandria. The whole experience was fantastic. We had a guitarist play at the ceremony which Chris was able to give us a really good price and the guy was really good! Chris set us up with a hidden IPOD and speakers for cocktail hour music.. thank goodness he had plenty of extra music on there because we were running extremely late. We had some issues with the coordinator and caterer and TIME. For some reason Chris seamed to be the only person who cared and he kept pushing everyone the hurry up since we had a time contraint on our Venue. Since our cocktail hour ran and hour late, Chris did an amazing job catching us up and getting back on schedule. He really did a great job picking the perfect songs to get the entire crowd dancing. Our photographer told us it was the most dancing at a wedding they had ever seen. It was fantastic, everyone was dancing from young to old! All in all we had an amazing time and if I could do it again Chris would be my first choice! We highly recommend him!!!

We had the pleasure of having Chris Temple as our DJ. Chris has excellent musical taste, knows exactly what works at a reception, and got rave reviews from our family and friends. Music was the most important part of the reception for me, and we could tell from our first meeting with Chris that he would do a fantastic job. He is very funny as well and kept us entertained in the planning process. It was worth it to pay extra to secure Chris himself for the day, but even with that upcharge, I still thought that the company was a very good value. I have two friends getting married next summer and have already given them C&J's information. Book him, you won't regret it!

We were very pleased with our DJ from C&J Entertainment for our wedding reception. The price was great and the quality was even better. We didn't want a DJ who would be too obtrusive but who would keep the party going. That is exactly what we got! They were very helpful when it came time to make our music choices - we were fairly apathetic and they gave a lot of great suggestions. I highly recomment the DJs from C&J Entertainment.

C&J entertainment were amazing to work with. Chris was very professional and attentive during the whole planning process. He went above and beyond to make sure our day was amazing. It was a relief to not have to worry about the entertainment aspect of our wedding. I would highly recommend them to any bride!

C&J was great to work with. They were responsive, knowledgeable and a great value.

I would describe out music taste as somewhat eclectic but they made sure to have all the songs we wanted, as well as supplying a few we might not have though of on our own. They also worked with us when we decided to have them do our ceremony music as well a little late in the game.

I'd recommend C&J to everyone. They'll make sure you get the music you want on your wedding day.

Chris was our DJ and he was AWESOME!!! Chris was a pleasure to work with from the first time we met him all the way through our wedding. He was quick to respond to all of our many questions/requests. He was extremely accommodating and easy to work with. He is also FUNNY!

He was so energetic and kept the party going from the first dance to the last dance (plus a few extras :) ). Our dance floor was packed the entire time. Chris knew exactly what songs to play when. We even skipped our garter/bouquet toss because people didn't want to clear the dance floor.

I would recommend Chris & C&J Entertainment to anyone. I have been to many many weddings, and (I may be biased but) Chris is by far the best DJ ever!!!

Chris was absolutely amazing for our wedding! He played longer than originally agreed on and his mix of songs kept everyone dancing and having a good time! Thanks again Chris!

DJ Chris was fantastic. He kept the party going strong. I am still getting compliments from a bunch of (very different) guests about how they liked the music selections. He was a definite professional. Would recommend him in a heartbeat.

C&J entertainment were SO great! After the first five minutes of our first meeting with Chris, we knew that we wanted him as our DJ. Before the wedding, he was always available to talk and plan, and he really listened to what we had to say. He planned everything down to the minute. During the ceremony and reception, he played all the songs we wanted him to (even the obscure ones), and some songs that he just felt the crowd wanted to hear- and he was right! We had more "your DJ was awesome!" comments than we could count. I would highly recommend these guys!

Words cannot express the fabulous job DJ Ed did the night of our wedding. He played a variety of the songs we picked out and all the guests had a blast dancing to it. Nobody wanted to leave when it was over and DJ Ed played one last song while he began packing up. DJ Ed was very professional and was also enjoying the party himself. This is a top notch company and the president, Chris Temple was very helpful when we first met. He provided an outline for us so we knew how many songs to pick during each section of the night. If you are looking for a DJ, C&J entertainment is your company. You won't be disappointed!

Perfect!

I had a fabulous experience working with Chris at C&J Entertainment. He was super-responsive, really creative, and very high energy. A DJ can make or break your ceremony and Chris definitely made ours! We didn't want to leave the dance floor and we are still receiving compliments from our guests. The biggest compliment we could give C&J is to refer them to our friends, who are also using them. Without a doubt, he completely surpassed our expectations and we still cannot get over his affordability.

Chris is the absolute best! One of my friends has already booked him for their wedding. We are still getting compliments on how awesome are music was and how he did such a great job at keeping EVERYONE on the dance floor all night long. It was one of the hottest days of the summer that we got married and the reception was outside on a deck, I thought everyone would stay gathered inside in the air conditioning to stay cool, but like I said, he had everyone out on the dance floor all night long. No one wanted to stop partying!

We were extremely happy with Chris and DJ Karl at C&J Entertainment. Chris helped us choose songs and manage our timeline. We had so much fun meeting with him and discussing music-- he is a great resource!! Karl was our actual DJ and did an outstanding job-- our dancefloor was always packed with people and everything happened right on time. We would highly recommend C&J entertainment.

DJ Chris Temple was so much fun to work with! When we met with him and had no idea what we wanted, he took the time to play many different songs for us so we could figure out what we liked best. Chris was flexible and let us cut things and change things during the reception as needed. He played the best mix of music and everyone at our wedding was up and dancing! The party didn't stop until about an hour after it was supposed to!

Chris was very easy to work with and knows his stuff. Our DJ was Lenny and he was so great and was everything I wanted in a DJ. Highly recommend!

Chris was awesome to work with for our wedding. From our initial meeting up to the end of our reception Chris was very helpful and pretty much acted as our event coordinator, ensuring the whole night went smoothly. We gave him guidelines as to what kind of music we would like to be played throughout the reception and he stuck to it and kept people on the dance floor. Even our parents were out there! My husband and I would recommend C&J to any couple getting ready to tie the knot!

Chris was extremely helpful in planning the music for the ceremony and reception. I had an idea of the type of music I wanted for the ceremony and he was able to quiclkly provide samples of exactly what I was looking for. He was also integral in helping us put together a playlist for the reception.

He was one of my favorite venndors to work with because he had great suggestions, lots of experience, was very easy going and very professional at our wedding. Overall, I was extremely happy with our ceremony and reception music. I would and have recommended Chris and C&J Entertainment to my friends, family and work for weddings and events.

Chris Temple was a great DJ!! He took the time to discuss my music choices and helped me make my final decisions. Once I had pulled the final list together he executed it perfectly and the floor stayed full all night.

DJ Chris Temple was awesome to work with! Hands down, he was worth every penny!!! When we first met him, he helped outline the entire wedding day down to the minute which was an incredible relief for us as we really had no idea how to plan a wedding. Chris gave us really good suggestions on songs and provided his honest opinion on songs that have worked or haven't worked in his experiences. We had a cultural ceremony before hand and I left it to Chris to come up with the music, which I can imagine was a challenge. His song choices ended up being perfect! Throughout the night, Chris was able to read the crowd SO WELL and kept the dance floor PACKED the entire night! Our wedding was a true blend of cultures and ages and EVERYONE I spoke to after the wedding said they had the BEST time dancing! My shy nieces and nephews (Ages 4-10) were even dancing the entire night! I even had 60yo+ aunts and uncles that stayed until the end b/c they were just having a blast! We are a really easy going couple and Chris made the night fit in with our song tastes and personalities. I have to say, we could have gone with a cheaper DJ but after meeting with Chris, we knew we were in good hands and we didn't have to worry about anything on our wedding day...everything went smoothly and everyone had a blast!!! He even played a few extra songs at the end to satisfy the 80's loving crowd with a song from Erasure!!! You will NOT go wrong with booking Chris and most importantly your guests will undoubtedly have an awesome time!!!

We had an outstanding experience with DJ Chris from C&J Entertainment. We found him to be enthusiastic and well-organized. During our initial meeting, he walked us through an outline of how the reception might progress, but he was also clearly deferential to our wishes. He explained various tactics for getting people to dance and ideas for how to get people off the dance floor for events such as the cake-cutting. It was clear that he was a professional and understood his role in the wedding. When we had questions, he provided his honest guidance and insight based on his experience. The entire pre-wedding planning process was very easy and comforting.

During the wedding, Chris continued to impress us. He was energetic and lively without being over the top. He let the music do the work and he did not bore our guests with chatter. He used his excellent judgment to play songs that were working and really kept people on the dance floor all night. The venue even allowed him to play for 20 minutes past the scheduled end of the reception and Chris may have been more excited about this bonus time than anyone! You could tell that he was enjoying himself and the guests benefitted from that.

We highly recommend DJ Chris and C&J Entertainment. He is a class act, a good guy (despite being a Georgetown fan), and one heck of a DJ!

Chris Temple was our DJ for the cocktail hour and reception and was AMAZING!!!! Our guests raved about the job he did! He kept everyone on the dance floor the whole time. People keep telling me it was the most fun they have ever had at a wedding because people were dancing the entire time!!!! He knew exactly what music to play during the cocktail hour, dinner, and to get the dancing started. He played the music we had on our "must play list" and didn't play the music on our "don't play list." I would definitely recommend him and C&J to anyone I know planning a wedding or another event! You'll never worry about the music at your event if you hire Chris. He made the whole process so easy. Thank you so much Chris!!!

I planned my wedding in a short time frame, and C&J was very helpful getting everything together on such short notice. I met a couple times with Chris, and we emailed back and forth several times.

DJ Karl was amazing! He didn't play any of the songs on the "Do Not Play" list and paid attention to what crowd was out on the floor. When the younger crowd was out, he played newer music.

I recommend using C&J for DJing, and especially Karl. He was just phenomenal!

From the first meeting with Chris we knew we where in good hands. We wanted a DJ that would be able to take control so everything will go smooth and not rush. And they delivered. Karl was a dream. From the second we walked in to the end of the night he kept everything on schedule if not ahead and always gave us plenty of notice that the next event was coming up. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ. Will and have recommended them very highly.
Thank you Karl and Chris.

When it comes to your wedding, you want to feel completely confident with your vendor selections. From our initial meeting with Chris, we felt that confidence and knew our wedding day music was in good hands! Our wedding couldn't have been more perfect! Thank you very much Chris!!!! :)

Chris and the staff with C and J provided great help with planning everything from start to finish with our wedding so we didn't have to focus our time managing another vendor involved with the wedding. C and J overseeing all the details allowed us to enjoy the moment of getting married (DJ Carl was fantastic the day of the wedding and got everybody really involved). Rob and Alicia

From the beginning till after the wedding was over Chris was great! He found all the music we asked for, and gave us some good suggestions. Dennis (our DJ) played all our selections, and filled in with choices that kept people dancing. The party was lively & fun- and many guests commented after that they really liked him. Plus we were able to get a CD of all the music we requested afterwards!

C and J Entertainment was wonderful to work with. Chris Temple was a true professional who knew the importance of the DJ and their relationship to the entire event. Chris provided more than just the music but allowed us to coordinate our entire event. We knew when and how everything was supposed to work on our special day becuase of the advice and guidence he provided to us. Going into the wedding we could not have felt more comfortable that we were going to have a DJ who would be able to handle anything that would arise and would put on a good show. There was of course no surprises during the event as Chris, our DJ for the event, did an excellant job. We would highly recommend Chris and C and J entertainment for any wedding or event. They were a great company to work with from the start of process through the end of the event.

Our wedding was an amazing event, thanks to the fantastic DJ skills of Chris Temple. He was professional and fun, and had everyone on the dance floor throughout the entire night. He played a great mix of our preferred songs and the audience's requests, all while sticking to our tight schedule.

I would hire Chris and his agency again in a heartbeat, and look forward to working with them again in the future!

Our contact person was Chris and he was professional and fun to work with! He made the whole process easy and enjoyable. Our DJ was Karl. Karl provided the ceremony music in somewhat unusual circumstances, and he was great! We had several music pieces which needed to be played at precise moments and Karl made magic happen! He was reassuring that all would go smoothly, and it did. The ceremony was beautiful and the music was an important part of that. The music for the cocktail hour was perfect and the reception went great. Karl helped with the Anniversary Dance which involved two of the Grandparents and Karl was wonderful in making the dance special. He was affirming and encouraging even when we finished the ceremony 20 minutes ahead of schedule! We never had a moment's concern, he was a wonderful DJ! Too bad we don't have another event coming up soon! We would love to have Chris and Karl again! Happy in NJ!

Very professional, flexible and well prepared.

C&J was one of our favorite vendors by far. My husband and Chris (our DJ) got along great and Chris did an awesome job. We got get compliments on the music selection and the dance floor wasn't empty at any point in the night.

Amazing DJ-ing. We had Chris as our DJ and he was wonderful. He kept everything on track and we didn't miss a thing. He worked with us with the music that we liked, and created a time line for us for everything to happen and even helped us create groups of music for certain times of the evening. Everyone knows the party gets better towards the end! Everyone commented on how well he had everything put together after the ceremony was done. I would recommend him and C & J Entertainment Agency to anyone!

We were extremely happy with C & J Entertainment. We used them for our wedding on October 10, 2009. From the first meeting with Chris Temple, through the final performance from Karl, we were treated with respect and professionalism. They listened to what we wanted, and helped guide us along the way. I highly recommend anyone in need of DJ services to use C & J Entertainment.

C&J Entertainment was great to work with! Chris made us feel relaxed.

DJ had a great playlist- guests were on the dance floor the entire evening!!!

Chris is an intensely professional individual who walked us through the process of designing our wedding Karl our DJ, was great! We have recieved more compliments on the music than any other aspect of our wedding. One of the few vendors that we had no problems with. Highly recommended.

Event: Wedding 9/26/09 C & J Entertainment:

Chris Temple was my DJ (with an assistant-name?)

I was really concerned about the music for our wedding, knowing it could make or break the event. Chris said he could make a song list for us or we could pick a few songs and he'd play the rest. Being type-A, I picked out every single song. Along the way Chris gave me feedback on my choices and provided great insight as to which songs would work well and which may not, but never told me I couldn't or shouldn't play something. He made me see things that I would not have seen otherwise. He also helped me figure out which part of the night different songs would work well etc. I was nervous about playing too many top 40, as I wanted a classier event, but Chris helped me pick a few really good dance songs so my guests wouldn't be bored. It worked!! Everyone was on the dance floor all night, more than I have ever seen at a wedding and he took license to keep the party going with a few songs not on the list which made the guests really happy!! He took cues from the guests themselves without having to take requests, he kept the dance floor packed!

Chris also went over the reception time-line very thoroughly with me, giving advice on time-line order to provide more flow to the reception which worked perfectly, but was also willing to adapt to what I wanted as well. He made several points about making it more smooth with the time-line that made perfect sense and worked, but that I would never have thought of on my own.

Chris has a very enthusiastic personality and we received numerous compliments on the music and dancing and the DJ himself. I had one guest even tell me they just had to go over and compliment the DJ in the middle of the reception. Chris was so much fun and my 10 year old daughter thinks the world of him! He and his assistant even helped out to change out candles for us that were burning too quickly! Above and beyond.

Chris is extremely knowledgeable on not only music for a wedding but running the wedding reception as well. He was an amazing DJ but DJ doesn't being to describe how much he contributed to the awesome wedding reception we had. While my dad was having a heart-attack over wedding costs and at first felt like the DJ price was a bit high ( he knew nothing of DJ costs...)....he was so pleased with the service he gave extra money!!!!

Thanks to Chris Temple and C & J Entertainement,

Kristin and Todd Frankenfield

C&J Entertainment was a perfect fit with us for our wedding day. They had all we wanted and at the perfect price. The flute/string trio was amazing for our ceremony and cocktail hour and our DJ Karl was excellent. He kept everyone dancing the entire time and kept my on schedule just as I had asked!

Thanks for making our special day everything we dreamed of!

At our daughter's wedding, Chris did an amazing job of keeping everybody on the dance floor, from old to young. He was not only helpful in choosing the music but mixed it up so well and made it so much fun! We were told by so many guests that this is the most fun they have ever had at a wedding. Chris did the reception from 6 to 10 and then did an after party from 10 to 11 PM. He was still full of beans at the end, reminds me of the energizer bunny! Chris, thanks for making Lucy & Lance's wedding so much fun. Chris

We wanted a very classic wedding and were particular about our song selection. C&J got it immediately, and guided us through the entire ceremony. Even the DJ captured the mood we were aiming for with a perfect mix of music and announcements. First class all the way -- and truly a beautiful day for everyone to remember! Highly recommended!

Chris and the DJ's at C&J Entertainment made the whole process stress free and fun!!! The entire wedding was up dancing and enjoying themselves! We have been asked by over 30 guests for the DJ's information. Not to mention the pricing was incredible.
I highly recommend anyone looking for a DJ (for any kind of event) give Chris a call.

AMAZING! I met with Chris personally and he booked himself to do the event. Whenever I called him he always answered or got back to me that day. He had great ideas and incorporated music both my parents liked and easilty transitioned into more modern stuff that still kept every age good dancing. I can't say enough about him!

Our DJ, Carl was excellent. He met and exceeded all of our needs. He kept the music appropriate at the different parts of the reception and did a great job at reading the crowd and playing matching music. I could not have asked for better music service. I highly recommend C&J for any event.

Chris did a great job selecting a DJ that matched our needs. Ed was wonderful and really did a spectacular job. Chris worked with us on the music selections, and made sure Ed had everything he needed. Chris and Ed also made sure the ceremony music was set up well for our outdoor ceremony. It couldn't have gone any better.

My wife and I used C&J Entertainment for our wedding this past August and everything worked out great. The staff were polite, prompt, and professional. They were able to contribute fully to making our wedding a wonderful and special time. We were able to pick all the songs we wanted played that fit the energy and personality of our friends and family. Great job! Would definitely recommend!

From the moment we met with Chris we felt at ease with our decision to go with C & J. He helped us determine how our reception would run. He set us up with a DJ who unfortunately had a family emergency two days before our wedding so he couldn't DJ for us, Chris stepped in and DJ'd our wedding without a second thought. Chris kept people on the dance floor all night using playlists that we had created ourselves. We would HIGHLY recommend C & J to anyone looking for a DJ for any event!

Marc Simmons performed the music at our wedding and reception. He was fantastic to work with. When introducing everyone, he spoke clearly and made sure to have everyones names pronounced correctly before hand. We endured some rain during our reception; instead of packing up and heading out, he gathered his things and followed us to an indoor location and continued to offer great DJ'ing services. He even started some fun dancing to keep our guests entertained. Great guy to work with!

Very easy to work with, provided professional advice where our own knowledge came up short. We had overall a very good experience, and would recommend them to anyone!

These guys were extremely helpful and took the time to make sure we got everything we wanted, we couldn't have been happier.

We chose C&J Entertainment for our DJ and we couldn't have been happier! A few of our friends had used them for their receptions we are glad they recommended them to us. Chris was great to work with and helped us throughout the whole planning process. He knew exactly what we were looking for and made the whole process very easy. Our DJ was perfect from the introductions and the timing of the whole reception to the dance floor being packed all night. At the end of the evening we didn't want to stop and the DJ even played a few extra songs for us. I highly recommend this company and already have!

I have worked with Chris and his team on a number of occasions, and they are great! They play a great array of music, and are very interactive with crowd. As a photographer, it's important that the DJ and I communicate clearly throughout the evening to coordinate the time line of events, which C&J does very well. You will be very happy with their services!

C & J Entertainment is a preferred wedding vendor at Turf Valley

As a photographer after I bring the bride and groom in to the reception, my ability to get great shots is due almost exclusively to the entertainment. If there are butts in the seats, it's because the "talent" doesn't have any.

Chris was an example of great tunes, and an appropriately paced increase in the intensity of the music. C&J aren't one of those talky dj's who tend to make the entertainment what they think it should be, but work great with the rest of the vendors-event planning, photography, videography, catering etc, and still keep the people on the floor.

I happily endorse C&J entertainment because it would be so much fun to work with them again! I might just hire him to stay at the house and spin music when I...

As a facility that does over 60 weddings a year we see our share of DJ & Entertainment Companies-the good, the bad and the ugly! So when you find an exceptional company like C & J Entertainment that you know will set the tone for the entire event and make it a success you make sure to recommend them. Whether you are working with Chris or one of his highly qualified DJs you know that each detail will be carried out exactly to your wishes and that everyone at your wedding will have a great time!

It is always a pleasure to work with C & J Entertainment. Every member of the staff is always professional, accommodating and punctual! They make every event enjoyable and stress free!

C&J is a delight to work with. The combination of talent and organization makes this company ideal for entertainment. I look forward to working with C&J again in the near future.
