    Stephi was great

    Stephi was recommended to us by a previous wedding that we attended that she DJed and she did great yet again! Everyone seemed to have an amazing time and understood the crowd well. She was an active listener during our meetings and really made sure to understand our vision even though we had a lot of special requests.

    Best experience with Anthony!

    We hired Black Tie Entertainment for our wedding and couldn't be happier with our choice. Anthony and his team were a joy to work with from start to finish—they kept things fun and relaxed while staying professional throughout the entire process. His communication was clear and responsive, which made planning so much easier. On the big day, Anthony kept the party on schedule and played incredible music that kept everyone on the dance floor all night long. The quality of his work was top notch and the pricing was more than reasonable for what we got. We highly recommend Anthony and Black Tie Entertainment to any couple looking for a band that will make their reception unforgettable.

    Best Djs Ever!

    John with Black Tie Entertainment was absolutely amazing from start to finish! He made the entire wedding experience so easy, from all of the planning and preparation leading up to the big day to keeping the energy going all night at our wedding. We have had several friends and family members reach out afterward just to tell us how incredible our DJ was! We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ or a better person to help make our wedding day so special. Thank you, John and Black Tie Entertainment, for being such a huge part of our perfect day! We highly recommend them!

    Best DJ Experience!!

    Chris with Black Tie Entertainment was the most incredible DJ for our May 2026 wedding! During the planning process, he took the time to really get to know us and our personalities, and he was extremely responsive any time we had a question. Throughout our wedding night, Chris checked in with us to make sure we were happy with the music and the overall vibe. He read the room perfectly and we got so many compliments from our guests about how great the music was!! Chris is clearly incredibly passionate about music and his clients, and we are so grateful we chose him. He truly helped make our wedding perfect. Thank you, Chris & Black Tie!!!

    DJ Chris Laing

    Just wanted to let you know that (other than the bride and groom), Chris Laing was the absolute hit of the entire day and evening! Everyone loved his emcee skills, lighting, and especially the music selections. I had so many people come up to me complimenting him and asking about his contact information. He did an absolutely fantastic and amazing job with everything. Thank you again for making the wedding such a fun day!
