From the moment we booked Ideal Entertainment, we were impressed by Chris’s attentive, detailed communication. On the day of our wedding, Chris went above and beyond his duties, expertly managing the chaos of the event and keeping our guests thoroughly entertained all night long. We were thrilled with the value and quality of the services, and would highly recommend Ideal Entertainment to any couple looking to make their special day truly memorable.
Ideal Entertainment is my go to!

I've had the pleasure of working with Ideal Entertainment, and they have consistently exceeded my expectations. Their communication style is very communicative and punctual, making it easy to coordinate and plan for events. The quality of their work and value provided is outstanding - Chris, the owner, puts in tremendous effort to ensure every event is a success. I've had Ideal Entertainment cover for me on several occasions, and they always receive exceptional reviews for their professionalism, preparedness, communication, and excellent DJ/emcee skills. Chris has become a great friend and colleague, and I highly recommend Ideal Entertainment to any couple looking for a reliable and talented wedding band and DJ service.
Best Wedding DJ East of the Mississippi!

•Christian•Jan 16, 2025
Chris was an exemplary DJ and day-of coordinator for our wedding back in April of 2024. He was very proactive leading up to the wedding. He met with us multiple times virtually leading up to the wedding (we were not local to the area we had our wedding) and did everything he could to put us at ease and offer any support we needed. The day and hours leading up to the wedding, Chris was a critical part of ensuring the day went to plan with minimal stress to my wife and me. He offers services that even include setting up decorations and breaking down the venue at the end of the night. During the wedding ceremony and reception, Chris brought his A-game which includes professional DJ equipment, a high energy performance, and ability to hype the crowd up. We cannot recommend him enough! Book Chris; you will not be disappointed!

Chris & his team are THE best in the game. He can be everything you need him to be and more to make your wedding the best night of your life. From planning, to day-of coordination, to on-the-fly dance floor mood boosting, he is simply the best! He was our wedding DJ and day-of coordinator as well as the DJ for another wedding we attended, and he made the receptions at both events. I cannot recommend Ideal Entertainment enough!
