DJ BRIAN'S REVIEWS
Kendyl R. - We had Brian for our wedding and he was THE BEST HANDS DOWN. I’ve been to some pretty boring weddings and my worst fear was people would leave my wedding saying the same thing about mine, “that was boring.” I think a lot of brides have the same fear. Then on top of having this fear already, I was really worried when I realized not a lot of people showed up to our wedding. Our wedding was very small, maybe 60-70 people? But y'all...it was still SO MUCH FUN! Brian did such a good job at making sure upbeat music was always playing and he helped get people involved in dancing! Not only did he keep the party alive but he also went around to us and our guest asking if we needed anything such as drinks, food or anything at all. What kind of Dj goes to the bar and gets drinks for the bride and groom?! Brian does! He gets with you before the wedding and gets a list of what you want played and what you don’t want played down to the specific songs/ artists. I 100% recommend him to anyone needing a Dj!
Michelle T- We used Essen Entertainment for the DJ and photobooth services at our wedding and they were phenomenal. I would (and already have) recommend them to anyone. DJ Brian Ring kept in contact with us leading up to the wedding and was flexible with schedule and order of events. He made sure that his playlists fit what we wanted, and made sure everything was lined up ahead of the event. Brian truly took his role as Master of Ceremonies (MC) seriously, and did an amazing job of coordinating the timing and succession of all the events at the reception that we didn't feel the need to hire a day-of wedding coordinator. This turned out to be a great decision because Brian did such a good job that the wedding coordinator would have had nothing to do! We received lots of comments from our friends and family at the wedding that "The DJ was killing it" and "Wow that DJ is doing such a good job". Brian kept the dance floor packed all night and everyone had a blast. The photobooth services from Essen Entertainment were also incredible. The services include someone who stands at the photobooth all night people figure out the technology and props as well as collect their photos. Javier did this for us and he was great. Javier contacted us a few weeks ahead of the wedding to customize our photobooth experience. We were able to choose our backdrop, props, and Javier also designed the template for the photostrip printouts to match the wedding theme. At the end of the event my wife and I received digital copies of all the photos as well as a photobook where people had taped their photostrips written notes! It was great.Thanks Essen Entertainment for such an amazing event and we will be using you again if we have another event.
Lara B.- Essen Entertainment was the perfect choice for us! From the very beginning we were so happy with this company! The owner spent over an hour on the phone with me the first day figuring out my vision for our wedding - before we had even signed any contract! Other companies quickly went into a sales pitch and didn't take the time to get to know me as a bride. He wrote a day-of timeline for me and was always in quick communication when I needed a question answered. Brian Ring was chosen as our DJ and we were thrilled with his performance! Brian did everything we asked and only played music that we specifically chose! Brian had a great speaking voice and was the perfect combination of professional and fun! Music was the most important aspect of our wedding day and we are SO happy we went with Essen! We will be hiring Brian for any big events going forward!
Aaron F - DJ Brian was outstanding. He is very professional and was already at the venue and set up before anyone from our party arrived to do our set up. He was very respectful of my time and was willing to communicate by email before the event to made sure he knew exactly what kind of music we wanted and to get our timeline for the reception. He was also open to special requests during the reception. He made sure we were on track for our schedule of events during the reception and checked back with several times during the evening to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. He kept things light while people were eating and then got everyone dancing after dinner. I would recommend him to anyone planning a reception regardless of the occasion.
Troy W - Where to start!? I would give them 6 starts if I could! I couldn't ask for a better DJ company and DJ. From the first appointment with JJ to the wedding send off with DJ Brian, everything was perfect. They take it a step farther than just playing music... They make sure you and your guest have the best night ever. JJ encouraged us to make sure we found a DJ within Essen that we felt we had a good connection with. We met with 1 other Essen DJ before meeting Brian which was a no brainer choice for us.
Donna W. - Brian was amazing from the moment we started planning and to the end of the wedding. He met with us several times and walked us through what works and what doesn't work based on his years of experience in the industry. On the day of the wedding, he ended up bringing extra equipment and helper (out of his own pocket) just to make sure everything would go perfectly. He did an AMAZING job at playing music to make sure that every age group was on the dance floor and having a good time. At one point, he noticed I hadn't had a chance to get a drink due to talking to everyone and Brian randomly appeared with a drink for me. They truly go above and beyond in every aspect!
Deborah M. - I hired Essen Entertainment to DJ my daughters wedding and all I can say is WOW! and that is probably an understatement. Brian was the DJ extraordinaire that night and the dance floor was packed all night long. I know that my daughter and her new husband had a lot of input into the music, but Brian also took requests from the guests as I made one myself being from the disco era. I had to get some of the 70's folks on the crowded dance floor. Nothing like some DISCO to get the 55 plus crowd moving. I know there was a list of "no" plays which my daughter did not want played, even I did not know what they were. If dance floors could talk I am absolutely sure this one would say this was an epic wedding dance off. At the end of the evening Brian told us he had never seen such a great crowd of people dancing and having fun. I say hats off to Brian and JJ Essen Entertainment for providing phenomenal DJ's and lighting to making the party an event to remember.
Abgayle G. - Brian Ring is the man!!! This DJ absolutely went above and beyond for our special day. A week prior to the wedding he made sure we were on the same page and he pretty much walked me through the entire reception. All of his advice and ways of doing things were spot on and extremely helpful. He did everything he could to make sure our night was perfect, and it definitely was. I highly recommend using him!! You will not regret it.
Olivia B. - We had DJ Brian for our reception and he could not have been more wonderful!! My wedding was the weekend after Harvey hit Houston and he was in contact the whole time keeping me updated!! With the tragedy of the flood, his skills were exactly what we needed and had everyone on the dance floor having so much fun! JJ was always available and super easy to work with. I would highly recommend their services to anyone who needs a DJ!
Nicole B. - Thank you so much to Brian Ring for being a wonderful DJ! He was very professional and easy to work with! He had everyone dancing and was overall a great guy! He was very receptive and was always open to meeting with me leading up to my wedding! HIGHLY recommend!
Catherine F. - Brian with Essen Entertainment was an excellent DJ and Master of Ceremonies! He worked with us to select our perfect playlist, including several "must-plays" that were a bit unconventional but nevertheless fun! The crowd had an incredible time and our dance floor was always packed. Brian was clearly intuitive, as he could read the crowd and determine when it was time to pick things up or slow things down. We had a spectacular experience with him and we highly recommend him and the other DJs of Essen Entertainment!
Stacy L - JJ was so easy to work with when we booked. He explained everything and picked the perfect DJ from his team to fit our style. Brian made sure every song we wanted for the ceremony was perfect. He went above and beyond to ensure he had just the version we wanted. He made the reception so fun! We had an older crowd but he managed to keep everyone dancing! He was so easy going and so helpful with music and beyond! He met the crowd’s requests, but stuck to our style. He went with the flow when we made schedule changes last minute. I highly recommend Essen Entertainment and DJ Brian. Wonderful people!
Stephanie S. - I just recently had Brian DJ our wedding. 6 months prior he had done my sister's wedding and I could not be more thrilled with everything! He was so incredible with the music and knew exactly what to play and when to keep the party going! We had everyone on their feet! Brian was so accommodating and flexible with our schedule He even stopped to make sure we had a full glass of champagne :) J.J. I spoke with initially and he was fantastic and so helpful!

J.J. took time to talk me through how the evening was going to go and assured me that they would take care of it and they did! I highly recommend Essen Entertainment for your wedding!!
Chelsea F. - Brian with Essen Entertainment was absolutely amazing and made my wedding so much fun!

Thanks again!
Erica M. - Brian was out of this world fabulous for our wedding reception!! From the start of my planning experience, through to the final dance at the reception, we were just ecstatic! He helped us plan not only a wedding reception, but a true professional event! He greeted us at the door of the venue and made the evening flow wonderfully! The sound system was amazing, and dramatic uplighting was just over the top dazzling! He kept the party going with his DJ style and vast catalog of music. People did not want the evening to end! If you want the perfect DJ for any of your events, Brian Ring is the man for you!
Ryan H. - Our wedding DJ Brian did an amazing job working with our schedules and setting up meetings with us prior to the wedding to make sure everything went as smoothly as possible. Also assisted in coordinating the wedding and ensuring everything was set up and flowed smoothly. We definitely appreciated a genuine person that was also able to think on his feet/be flexible and make everything go perfectly! We definitely recommend him to all those planning a wedding or any other event. Thanks again Brian you’re the man!

Don S. - Brian Ring was awesome, His music knowledge and timing is perfect. He has a great voice for announcing upcoming events and gets everyone in place. Thanks Brian for your DJ Service.
Kaitlyn W. - We were looking all over for a quality service that wasn't going to break the bank. Essen Entertainment is the answer.. you can stop your hunt here. My wife and I had Brian do our wedding, and the guy absolutely crushed it! Showed up early, made sure everything was ready to go with plenty of time before the ceremony started, and was one step ahead of the entire night. I can not say enough great things about our experience with Brian. We gave him a list of some songs we wanted, then he knew our taste and played what he thought we would like and he delivered. He kept the dancing crowd engaged all night, and helped create a night we will never forget. Again, cant say enough positive things about this company and Brian Ring.

Angela L. - We found Essen Entertainment by Google searching "best DJ in Houston Texas" They were three first to pop up. We checked out the website and JJ's Facebook and decided immediately to go with them. JJ was extremely nice and helpful, he was booked the day of my wedding so he booked us with Brian. First impression, I knew he'd be awesome. He played great music, interacted with the guests (they loved him), and even helped serve food lol (catering misunderstanding, my fault) The dance floor was never empty! We had a blast. I highly recommend Essen Entertainment!!!!
Sara W. - I don't ever post reviews on anything, but these guys deserve all the praise in the world. From beginning communications, all the way until the wedding was over… Essen Entertainment hit it out of the park! Our wedding was perfect. Going through the planning process we didn't realize how involved the DJ really is throughout the entire night, from introducing the bridal party, to announcing special dances, to announcing who eats first etc. There was just a lot that he was involved in, and he was the most prepared and personable DJ ever! Our DJ was Brian, and I have already been contacted twice about "Who was that DJ at your wedding? Can I have his contact info". That pretty much says it all about Essen Entertainment and Brian Ring. Well done guys, and I can't thank you enough for the work and effort you put in to make our day perfect!
Bryce S. - Essen Entertainment paired us with DJ Brian for our wedding and we could not possibly put into words how satisfied and thankful we are for choosing them. Brian was more than accommodating to our requests and ran the entire evening beautifully. If you're looking for a wedding DJ there is not better choice!
Christopher G. - Brian was amazing! He kept the night flowing without any problems, he kept things on schedule, and he kept the dance floor full. He was extremely friendly and easy to work with. 100% recommend him and Essen Entertainment in general for any and all weddings
Lauren G. - Brian was amazing! He was professional, organized, and most of all… fun! He made people want to get out on the dance floor and have fun! We did not mind paying a little extra for the services as compared to some of the other dj's out there, and would gladly pay it again! Thank you Brian and Essen Entertainment for helping to make our day even better!
Steven R. - Brian Ring is the perfect DJ. We have enlisted his service on multiple occasions and have had a great experience each time. He arrives early, sets up his equipment, interacts with the crowd and performs flawlessly. He has a true passion for doing an outstanding job and will not disappoint you. Thank you again, Brian.
Rafael R. - Brian was the DJ for my daughter's wedding. He did a wonderful job handling the different parts of the ceremony and reception. My daughter requested special music for the ceremony that Brian obtained rapidly. He also put together a play list that matched my daughter's requests and also had a very good sound system. He also handled the announcements and events very well. I would highly recommend Brian as a DJ for any event.

Jose A.-Brian’s attention to detail helped the event go smoothly. His event planning helped us plan the perfect evening. He played music for everyone to make sure everyone had a great time. The energy of the night was perfect in every way.
Morgan C. - We used Essen Entertainment for our wedding day and could not be happier. JJ Essen was easy to contact, very responsive, and made our day so much fun! I had no idea where to start when I thought about music at our wedding and became pretty overwhelmed. When I reached out to JJ, he quickly reassured me that they, him and DJ Brian, had everything under control and he was right! They sent me a list that my husband and I could go through and pick songs were liked and disliked. DJ Brian followed up to review the songs and then continued to follow up to make sure we were comfortable with everything. This type of service is rare to find and that is why I HIGHLY recommend Essen Entertainment!
Danielle B. -Brian did an amazing job at our wedding! It couldn't have gone more perfect. He made sure the sound was just right. Had everything together. Called us 2+ times weeks in advance to make sure he had all the information to make it the best night possible. I can't say enough good things about them! If you're wanting someone to make sure y'all have a good time that night, definitely consider them!!

When I reached out to JJ, he quickly reassured me that they, him and DJ Brian, had everything under control and he was right! They sent me a list that my husband and I could go through and pick songs were liked and disliked. DJ Brian followed up to review the songs and then continued to follow up to make sure we were comfortable with everything. This type of service is rare to find and that is why I HIGHLY recommend Essen Entertainment!
Danielle B. -Brian did an amazing job at our wedding! It couldn't have gone more perfect. He made sure the sound was just right. Had everything together. Called us 2+ times weeks in advance to make sure he had all the information to make it the best night possible. I can't say enough good things about them! If you're wanting someone to make sure y'all have a good time that night, definitely consider them!!

DJ BRENT'S REVIEWS
Natelie C. - D.J Brent is perfect! We had a phone interview before our wedding and he asked me so many thoughtful questions on what I envisioned, song choices, and reviewed the songs that J.J. had previously “cut” for me, etc. Y’all, we arrived to the reception and he was the first smiling face we saw. Brent asked us for our drink order and brought it to us while everyone was lining up…. my husband and I were overwhelmed with the thoughtfulness and sincerity. He made the night so much fun! My dad loved his song selection and he really made our wedding reception flow incredibly well. I highly recommend him! Overall, if you are looking for an affordable, trustworthy, professional, and fun DJ service (plus more), I would HIGHLY recommend JJ Essen Entertainment.
Stephanie R. - Brent was absolutely amazing!! Was very great at making sure my husband and I were doing alright throughout the wedding, and constantly asking if we needed anything. Played the exact type of music my friends and family love, and everyone had a great time. Received so many compliments on how much fun the music was, and how great of a time they had. It got everyone involved and dancing the night away. He added some humor to the night and it was perfect!! When talking before the wedding, Brent was always very quick to reply to any of my questions. He gave me exactly what we wanted. Again, I couldn’t have asked for a better DJ! A true thanks to Essen Entertainment and DJ Brent! Simply amazing!
Sarah C. - Hiring Essen Entertainment was a great experience for us! JJ spent countless hours with us on the phone going over event details and providing a list of most popular wedding songs for us to use as a base. He was easily accessible throughout the entire process and we were able to meet with our wedding DJ, Brent, before the event to go over our wedding vision for music. Brent totally killed it and we had the dance floor packed the entire night! Brent even checked in with my husband and I throughout the event and made sure everything was OK and that we had everything we needed. Highly recommend!
Stacy H. - Brent is THE MAN!! He Dj’d for us for our wedding and I wish I could post ALL the texts and calls I’ve gotten telling me and my husband how our wedding was the most fun wedding anyone’s been to!!! The dance floor was PACKED allllllllll night long, he knew how to keep the party going and we had guests of all ages from little kids to elderly!! Brent was timely, professional and extremely helpful, we loved having him and wish we could get married all over again just to have that bad ass party again! You won’t regret using him, your wedding will be talked about for a long long time afterwards 🍻❤️ (we haven’t gotten all our wedding pics back but i can assure you we probably have a trillion more coming from the reception because it was a BLAST)
Conner S. - Brent was our DJ and he did an amazing job. We felt so comfortable throughout our big night knowing that he was in charge of the music. He had a great mix of music and kept the party going.. He was in communication with us constantly and made sure the day of itinerary went smoothly. But what impressed me most was he personally went and served my bride and I our food from our buffet. It was an above and beyond step that allowed us to spend more time talking with our guests. Great person and great job, couldn’t have asked for better!
Amy D. - My husband and I hired Essen Entertainment after seeing their wonderful reviews and by recommendation from our venue. After our first conversation with J.J., we knew we made the right decision. We were given Brent for our big day and we couldn't have been happier! I had a very specific song that I wanted to walk down the aisle to and after working out the details with Brent, I received the mixed track and it exceeded all of my expectations! I highly recommend J.J. and Brent and the entire Essen Entertainment team!
Chelsea S. - BRENT SAVED MY WEDDING! I found him through Essen Entertainment and I requested a quote and almost instantly J.J. was asking if he could call me for a quote. I had a great convo with him as he was very informative and very fairly priced. He was so easy to communicate with throughout the many months before my wedding. I could tell he is passionate about what he does and he cares about his customers and their events. So - day of the wedding......the coordinator drops the ball, the photographer drops the ball, and then there's Brent!.....he literally took control and SAVED MY WEDDING! He kept everyone going and entertained and took it upon himself to grab the schedule and to make sure we did everything in a timely manner. He came up to me many MANY times throughout the night and asked how I was doing, if I liked the music, if I had any requests, and would let me know what was next and what time it was. He kept everything on track! He was truly the highlight of my wedding and I was so thankful to have him. If you are looking for someone for your wedding, you honestly do not need a day of coordinator, he naturally does it all and keeps the timeline going. He will even tell you as well that he kinda doubles as the coordinator because he is THAT GOOD! Also, he drove over an hour with no extra charge or complaints. BEST DJ COMPANY EVER!
Melissa A. -DJ Brent was awesome! He reached out to us months before hand asking for a playlist, which I appreciated as it was not a last-minute ask. He also used that playlist to get the "vibe" of our wedding and chose some other really great songs during the dinner portion of our wedding - music for which we had not picked out. We also asked for additional microphones during the ceremony as we were going to have someone say a prayer, and two separate people doing the ceremony. He bought the extra microphones we needed, no questions asked!
Austin G.- Chelsea and I had our wedding at the Big Sky Barn and Essen Entertainment was amazing throughout the experience. Since the first time we contacted them a year ago, they have been in touch with us making sure that we both have all the information we both need for our special day. We ended up with DJ Brent as our DJ and he was incredible. I couldn't recommend a service anymore. If you are looking for a DJ for an event, they will make sure that your every need is met.
Janice J. - What better proof of how awesome the services of Essen Entertainment provided was than the reaction of the crowd itself! Guests were dancing and enjoying the music up until the last song was played. Brent our DJ was fabulous!! He followed our personal song list request to a T!!!! There is no doubt I would use Essen Entertainment again. Professional Proficient and Personal are the words I use to describe my new friends Brent and J.J.!
Kyle S. - Brent was an absolute blast! He was very involved and made sure everyone knew what was going on next. He stayed an extra half hour to keep the party going and taught a few of the bridesmaids some mixing skills! They loved it and shouted "DJ Mound" at him all night and he fed right off our energy! Thanks again, the music and dancing is something we will never forget from that night!
Terry H. - Brent was absolutely brilliant and would definitely recommend him. He was very responsive in communications before the event, and on the day itself did everything possible to make sure we were happy. The music selection for the party was exactly as planned and he made excellent suggestions for other bits of music throughout the reception time. Definitely recommended!
Cheryl S.- DJ Brent with Essen Entertainment was the BEST at my event. He arrived with plenty of set up time, played great music from the 50's, 60's and 70's and he even took requests from my guests. Brent was very professional and I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND him for your event. I will definitely book him again!
Melissa A. - Thanks to JJ, Scott, and Brent for being so accommodating through some pretty major coinages to our wedding. Brent and Scott did a great job guiding our ceremony and reception. Super professional and very attentive. I would highly recommend booking through Essen Entertainment.
Kerry D. - Brent was awesome! So much fun & professional! I loved that he had us fill out a wedding worksheet that let us decide what we wanted played and when we wanted it played! He was right on cue the entire time and faded songs out and into the next perfectly! I was really impressed that Brent throughout the wedding continued to come up to my Husband and I to make sure we were happy with the music and lights, which of course we were happy each time!
Dolores Y. - I'm so glad I hired Brent! My wedding planner never showed up and he was such an immensely huge help with getting me to move on to the next thing and making sure I fit everything I wanted to into the wedding. He didn't even want extra for the role he took on ;D His playlists were on FIRE! I had people ranging from 5-85 at my wedding and they all thoroughly enjoyed the music he played. I would hire him again a million times over. He is the definition of amazing!
Gladice M. - This was the best DJ experience I could have ever imagined! Anything and everything we needed, it was taken care of!! I will be HIGHLY recommending DJ Brent and Essen Entertainment for anyone and everyone. Thank you so so much!
Stephanie R. - I had a great experience, Brent helped a lot with making our night special! Keeping everyone dancing, and making sure we were comfortable with the music/timing of songs.
Grant T. - Brent was incredible. He had a passion for making sure our wedding night went the way we wanted to. He took our vision and made it a reality. He was a true professional to work with. We could not have asked for a better DJ!!!
Pam H. - Really liked working with Brent, he was very sweet and easy going. Prior to hiring him, I was very worried about hiring a DJ for a mixed wedding as my family is very traditional Mexican and my husband is Caucasian. Needless to say, he dissuaded all my worries and I received a number of compliments from my guests saying they loved the music from both sides of the family!
Julia S. - Essen Entertainment is great! We selected DJ Brent and also their photo booth for our Christmas party. They got there early to set up and stayed late after the party ended. The photo booth had tons of props I had never seen before! Brent stayed late playing music even after most people had already left. We had a ton of fun! Thanks again!
Nai K. - Essen Entertainment was amazing from booking to the wedding day. JJ Essen was very informative and very thorough in the vision of how our night would play out. My husband was very impressed after the initial phone call with what Essen Entertainment has to offer. Brent, the DJ of the wedding night, definitely lit up the dance floor. We have guests on the dance floor all night long! Everyone loved the music that was being played. Thank you so much for making our night so magical!

DJ IVAN'S REVIEWS
Marcus M. - We had an amazing time at our wedding and owe a great deal to Essen Entertainment for that. Essen Entertainment listened to our needs and provided us with the excellent DJ Ivan. DJ Ivan was incredible and responsive and so professional. We could not have had a better experience. DJ Ivan was extremely punctual and set up an incredible wireless system before any guests arrived. He put our needs above all else during the reception, allowing us to change gears in music when we asked and stuck to our playlist as requested. He was extremely knowledgeable of all kinds of music and played appropriate music for all parts of our wedding. DJ Ivan was also incredibly flexible. Our wedding experienced some rain and he was able to arrange his equipment in the limited space we had without intruding on our guest's space; he was also ready with an alternate microphone that worked better in the rain. He was truly prepared for everything.
We highly recommend Essen Entertainment!
Domini D - DJ Ivan was awesome!!! We highly recommend him. Essen entertainment had great communication throughout the planning process, arrived on time and delivered every song we requested. DJ Ivan was very professional and accommodating to each request. He are so impressed with his ability to ensure that we had all the reggae songs (most of which he didn't know) required for our wedding. He even went as far as googling our names to ensure he pronounced them right (the only one out of all of vendors to do so ahead of time).Thank you so much for making our reception very memorable!
Christ W. - Wow!! DJ Ivan was my DJ for my wedding on Friday and he did an incredible job!! Got a very eclectic group of people out on the dance floor in record time! He listened and did everything I asked for, played all of the songs that we requested, and did a great job with the whole thing!! He showed up early, was set up and ready to go in plenty of time. He was awesome at our shoe game and all the announcements. The very next time I need a DJ, I’m calling him!! You should too, you won’t regret it!! 5 STARS!!
Marla P - Ivan really did an excellent job playing for our wedding!! Not a dull moment... on time, respectful, and knows how to keep the party moving! You cannot go wrong with DJ Ivan! We had over 300 people at our wedding and it ran smoothly. Thank you Ivan and Essen Entertainment!
Stacy F. - If you're looking for a packed dance floor all night and having guests talk about your wedding for days after...don't look further. DJ IVAN is your man. We booked him a year and half in advance through Essen Entertainment and he worked with me from the beginning to the end. I loved how helpful, flexible and knowledgeable he was about the music and timeline. He worked so well with all of my vendors. Ivan even made custom music mixes for the father & daughter dance. Make sure to get the grand package that includes all uplights, glow foam sticks and the large LOVE letters. My wedding was everything I dreamed of and more because of Ivan keeping the party going all night. We are so happy we chose Ivan to make our wedding magical! Thank you!

Lena P. - There is no words to explain how awesome DJ Ivan did for our special day! I found Ivan through Essen Entertainment and it was important for us to have a diverse DJ as we had a mix crowd. He drove to meet us and he was extremely professional and informative. The day of he guided Us as we had a family member sing for us live and had bad winds but it still came out awesome. Cocktail hour and reception were a blast. The dance floor was never empty so that should say A LOT. I have everyone still asking for his contact information to book him for events. It was truly one of the best vendors to work With. Not to mention every other vendors said he was was great to work with as well. My advice is BOOK him. Worth every penny!!! Thank you Ivan for the memories and giving everyone the time of their life.
Thomas B. - DJ Ivan made my wedding the event of the century. We had some last minute additions and he willingly accommodated. He went FAR ABOVE and beyond what was expected and my wife and I couldn't be more thankful!!
Hillary S. - DJ Ivan was amazing! Not only did he have to drive 8 hrs to set up, but the dance floor rocked and the up lighting he provided really added a wonderful ambiance to our reception. Ivan went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a great time out on the dance floor; including the kids! The services of Essen Entertainment are amazing!
Stacy L.- I can't say enough good things about DJ Ivan. He was in contact with us weeks before our wedding to get a good song list down for key dances. On the big day he showed up super early to setup his equipment. Clean cut and professional appearance. Afterwards he took initiative upon himself to coordinate with the photographer, pastor, and others to make sure everything transitioned smoothly. He made special announcements in both English and Spanish. Music wise he catered to both families (1 Spanish and 1 English speaking) evenly. At the end of the night he packed up his equipment and then even walked around and told everyone thank you and goodbye. He even helped us get a few heavy things in the truck. There is a reason this guy has nothing but 5 star reviews.
Rafael R.- I think finding a Dj that we liked was the hardest thing! I went through some really rude DJ's but I was so happy and relieved after we contacted Essen Entertainment! J.J. told us about DJ Ivan and we were sold. Ivan is such a nice person and a great DJ. He did more than enough for us. They added the final touch to our venue and cake with really cool up lighting. Thank you for everything! We'll be recommending you all to everyone we can!
Alyssa T. -Ivan provided his DJ and lighting services for our wedding in October. Everything was flawless. Ivan is a professional and our guests were very pleased with the music choices. Thank you for making our event a memorable one.

Thomas Z.- Ivan hosted my wedding - amazing music! He played a little bit of everything, his lighting was absolutely beautiful and he ensured that everyone sign his sheet of music request. I think our entire party danced from the moment he began playing until he left. I will highly recommend him to my friends and family.
Ashley M.- Great choice! I was having hard time finding someone comfortable with the type of music we wanted and man did DJ Ivan deliver! So many people asked how we found him and thanks to Essen Entertainment, we got Ivan. The music was talked about a lot and he was on top of everything. You will not regret going with Essen Entertainment and Dj Ivan
Jessica S.- Ivan is Great DJ! He recently DJ’d at my wedding in February and the entire night he had people out on the dance floor. He had a great mix of music and he was very professional! Look no further for a great DJ

Victor G. -DJ Charles performed at my daughter's wedding last weekend 150 miles from their location. He arrived early and was flexible with the bride and groom's requests. His gear is top notch from his controller to speakers to lighting.His approach is greatly appreciated. Rather than trying to be the party or take over the party, he allows the music and the dancing to run the show. His pricing is very reasonable and his announcements were spot on!

DJ JERRY'S REVIEWS
Sandra T. -We had Jerry as our DJ for our wedding, and he did an exceptional job. He listened to our concerns and requests and pulled them off without missing a beat. He set the exact right tone that we were looking for and we had an amazing time. We even had a specific style and genre of music that we wanted to have played during the cocktail hour and dinner, and with only my minimal description he nailed it on the head. He did exactly what we wanted and the day would not have been the same without him. I would recommend him and Essen Entertainment to anyone.
Aaron G. - Essen Entertainment was wonderful! Each contact was personal and not a form email, we really felt in control, yet guided by experts. DJ Jerry was a blast at our wedding and really got the night going! Our wedding had a few semi-last minute changes and I never felt as if we were putting DJ Jerry out, he was excited to make our evening work. I wholeheartedly recommend Both Essen Entertainment and DJ Jerry to ANYONE looking to make their wedding perfect.
Drea D. - What a fun night. DJ Jerry was awesome. He kept our crowd dancing all night long. He interacted very well with our guest and never missed a beat when it came to announcements or toasts or anything of that sort. My little cousin was there and at some point during the night, he had let him get up behind the Dj booth and let him do some scratches. Which he thinks was the most awesome thing ever and now wants a Dj booth set up for Christmas so he can pursue his new dream of being a Dj when he grows up. Thank you so much for keeping our party crowd going and making our night fun and filled with music. Javier, the Photo Booth ROCKED. We now have sooo many incredibly funny and awesome pictures that we got to look at in our scrap book the next morning. They're priceless and something that we will cherish forever. If you are considering whether or not to have a Photo Booth for your wedding, DO IT. It was entirely worth it. JJ, thank you for taking the time out and having an initial consultation with me when I had found y'alls info on the Knot. I had made my mind up before we had ended our conversation that Essen Entertainment was going to be our pick.
Gwen G. - Fantastic upfront planning! J.J. was so helpful! DJ Jerry was awesome and he had great communication through the whole process. Not to mention getting my guests up and dancing all night!!! I can’t say enough good things about Essen Entertainment, they helped make my dream wedding a reality!
Lisa D. - Jerry was absolutely amazing!!!! He kept our guests on the dance floor and nobody wanted to leave at the end of the night! Jerry accommodated all of our requests and was completely flexible on timing when we were running behind. One month after the wedding and I'm still hearing compliments on our DJ. Highly recommend - you wont go wrong
Denise S. - DJ Jerry was very professional and delighted us with the music, mood , and atmosphere that we desired. He was easy and pleasant to work with and helped make our wedding day memorable and fun!
Stephanie R. - We hired Jerry from Essen Entertainment for our wedding and He was a joy to work with, and helped make our day a great success. He was incredibly organized and professional: handled all the A/V logistics on all three floors of the venue, ensured that we had a backup mic during the ceremony, and kept the entire evening running on time from cocktail hour to cake cutting to last dance. His music selection was superb, reflecting our personality but also adjusted to the energy in the crowd. He kept the whole party on the dance floor until the venue closed at midnight We would recommend Shaun to anyone who wants an unforgettable, fun, and flawless wedding
Trish F. - We had Jerry as the DJ for our wedding, and he did a wonderful job! He worked with the other vendors well to make sure everything ran smoothly, and was able to adapt to the last minute schedule changes we ended up having throughout the night. He played a great mix of music that got everyone dancing, making sure to pass any strange requests by us before they were played and was professional to all he encountered. Before the wedding, we had filled out a form with all of our song/genre/event requests, and the week of the wedding, I had a phone call with Jerry where he ran through all the details of the wedding so that everything would be perfect for the day of. Thanks Essen Entertainment for making our wedding day amazing!
Carrie Z .- We had Jerry as our DJ and he was fantastic! I didn't realize how much I would need him until he was there problem solving and making sure things went smoothly. I always thought that DJs just played music and make corny jokes to entertain the crowd, but Jerry was so much better than that. He was alway touching base making sure we were happy and helping us keep our wedding day on schedule, playing all the music we liked, pumping up the party but also bringing it down smoothly when it was time for the night to end. I could not be happier.
Sarah N. - I used DJ Jerry, and I am so happy I found him. I had been to a couple weddings with horrible DJs so I was really picky when I was selecting my DJ. You can tell he's been in the business for quite a while, and his experience is very comforting, he led us through everything so smoothly. He really helped make the wedding and reception flow very well, and everyone was responding to the music he played. All of our guests kept saying how wonderful he is! I couldn't be happier with the services he provided us!
Rachel I. - Jerry was great to work with! We didn’t have much of a crowd that enjoys to dance but he really interacted well with everyone and was a blast. All the guests commented on how fun he was. Essen Entertainment was awesome to work with and if you can book them…DO IT!
Ashley P. - Jerry was our DJ and he did AMAZING! The DJ is so so important and music choices for a reception can really make or break the party. Jerry totally made our party! He was spot on with every song and with no exaggeration at all, I can say he had EVERY guest on the dance floor for most of the night. It addition to his amazing DJ'ing, Jerry also MC'd to help keep the night moving along and transition from one event to the next. He never missed a beat and had everything moving smoothly from the moment we said "I do" to our very last "goodbye"

DJ LONDON REVIEWS
Jordan C. - Two weeks before my wedding I had to find a new DJ since the one I had originally hired was not following through on commitments. We found Essen Entertainment and were set up with the most wonderful DJ- DJ London!! Both the owner and DJ London were so responsive and accommodating from the beginning. My husband and I immediately loved DJ London’s energy and just had a great feeling she would make our wedding a blast. And she was very focused on making sure our wedding atmosphere reflected our personalities. Come wedding time, she did not disappoint!! She far exceeded our expectations. She had everyone engaged and having fun from the beginning. She was out in the dance floor getting everyone involved, dancing, making jokes. She created the fun and exciting atmosphere I have always pictured for our wedding. We had at least 50 percent of our guests mention what a great DJ we had. I cannot day enough good things about her!! Definitely hire DJ London for your event!!
Chelsea S. - The.Best.Ever! Words cannot express the gratitude I have for J.J. and DJ London.. our DJ for our wedding reception. From first phone call, J.J. was so kind and expressed interest and excitement for our wedding even though they've done hundreds before. It may be common to find a DJ to get a crowd excited to dance the night away but that is not what made London exceptional! I owe London a huge debt of gratitude for making my evening evening even more special than it already was! People were calling it the best reception they’d ever attended! Highly Recommended!
Sarah G. - We had the true pleasure of working with DJ London with Essen Entertainment for our wedding. She was so easy to work with and was great with communication. One of my biggest worries was making sure the music was on point the whole night and with London, you need not worry! She can read the room better than any DJ I've seen and kept us going all night long. Our guests to this day say we had the best wedding DJ and we couldn't agree more. I would work with her again in heartbeat!
Michelle D. - For my wedding, we had DJ London as our DJ and she was awesome. Did everything we asked and even when guest were begging her to play things we had asked not to be played she stood her ground haha. She was so easy to work with and I heard no complaints regarding the music. She also was on time and set up in the for the ceremony (we used just audio) and was very professional throughout everything. Essen Entertainment as a whole was awesome to work with, very accommodating and reasonable in price. I’d recommend them (and London) to anyone look for their wedding!
Steven E. - We absolutely loved working with DJ London and Essen Entertainment. The music played and how much fun you have at a wedding is something we always remember - and we wanted to have a DJ that played our taste of music and kept everyone having a great time. DJ London was amazing - played great music and kept everything stress free. She was very organized, and even helped us make changes to our wedding timeline to make everything go as smoothly as possible. She was great to work with and very highly recommend!
Shirley T. - From start to finish, Essen Entertainment was extremely professional and absolutely amazing. After our first talk, we instantly knew we wanted to work with them. We were then assigned DJ London as our DJ and we definitely lucked out! She was amazing from start to finish. We had an initial phone call, met in person and a phone call right before the big day. She made us feel at ease and had the best attitude (and knew how to handle a crazy bride like myself. :) ). She was fantastic and all my guests were super impressed with her. We never had a dead dance floor and in fact, we had too many people on the dance floor that there was overflow around the dance floor because everyone couldn't fit on it. We can't say thank you enough to her for making our day the best day we've ever had. We HIGHLY recommend them if you go the DJ route!! They are the absolute best!

DJ MAX'S REVIEWS
Adam L. - My wife and I got married this year. It was no question we wanted Essen Entertainment and specifically DJ Max to take care of our music and entertainment and boy did they. I am pretty sure it was the smoothest part of our wedding day lol. All 3 of us got together about a week or 2 before the wedding. And he knew exactly what we wanted. I barely got to talk to him from all the mingling my wife and I were doing. I couldn't tell you how many people came up or called us the next day asking about him. I appreciate his hard work and professionalism he gave everyone. We recommend him 100 times over. Any time someone asks if anyone knows a DJ I ALWAYS tell them Max.
Joe M. - Absolutely enjoy having DJ MAX !. The music is always crowd pleasing and never too loud. He always has whatever karaoke song anyone asks for. He always involves the whole crowd. It's always a great time. Look forward to seeing you everytime youre booked with us. Looking forward to seeing again at The Park soon. I think i may have over used the word always. Lol. But you get my point...
Stephanie R. - I cannot recommend Essen Entertainment enough! The owner, J.J. and our DJ Max exceeded my expectations. Everyone at our wedding danced and made comments about how impressed they were. J.J. communicated with me and asked for clarifications to ensure everything went smoothly. Max took song requests at our wedding and my husband said that while Max didn't have a specific song, he bought it just to be able to play it. . I know I will recommend them to anyone I know having an event! Thank you for a great time, we couldn't have asked for a better entertainment service
Jenn H. - I would recommend Essen Entertainment and DJ Max to anyone looking for a DJ. Very professional, perfect song selections and kept the dancefloor moving. The Dancing on Cloud Effect was the best. I have asthma and fog machines kill me. I cant thank them enough for driving 4 hours to DJ my wedding. They are so much more than a DJ!!! Thank you again for everything.
Codi S. - First of all I must say how professional and honest Max is! I was super nervous about booking a DJ because I have heard some horror stories. Well let me tell you that Max did an amazing job and he was so friendly and organized. He made sure that everything was exactly the way we wanted it right down to the last detail. He even bent over we backwards to mix my father daughter dance song literally the night before our wedding that way it was just the way I wanted it. I will absolutely recommend him to anyone that needs a DJ for a wedding, birthday or any event really. Max, thank you again for making our wedding perfect!
Madison S. - Max was the DJ for our wedding and he really helped contribute to making it the BEST day of our lives! We told him all along we wanted to make sure our guests are having so much fun that they don’t want to leave the dance floor - and he delivered! He was also super easy to talk to and reach throughout the process. He patiently answered all my questions , gave us good recommendations, and made all our special requests happen with traditional Greek and Hungarian songs mixed in. Unlike other some horror stories we had heard about other companies, we never had a worry that we would get ripped off or not get what we expected. Highly recommend Essen Entertainment and DJ Max!
Tony M. - DJ MAX is a great person! Words can't explain what a great person he is.! The best DJ in Houston....I would definitely recommend him for every event that ya'll need. you well not go wrong with him trust me".
Jenny P. -DJ Max has come out to Wallisville, Texas for a year now and has been our #1 DJ for The Park Bar & Grill. His karaoke is A1 and his music playlist is endless, he's very professional, and keeps up with all the new music. His set up is awesome. I recommend him for all you parties, weddings, bars, & just all around music DJ needs. Max Sullivan is a beast when it comes to the best DJs I've heard.
Robyn R. - PERFECT CHOICE!! J.J. and MAX were amazing to work with and were everything we were hoping for in a DJ. Choosing them was our big splurge for our wedding and we are so glad we did. They made the process easy and fun, even though we were planning from across the country. They handled everything professionally yet were light hearted and funny. The day of MAX was able to handle all the unscripted changes the night brought and created an amazing dance party. Thanks again guys!
Jeremy G. - 5 stars is just not enough! Max was absolutely amazing! From our first meeting, to the day of the wedding he took care of any and every detail, to ensure that I had nothing to worry about. With everything going on with the wedding, Max made sure that the planning process regarding the music couldn't be easier. On the day of our actual wedding, he made sure that everyone was up and having a great time at our reception. Our day would have not been nearly as memorable without Max and Essen Entertainment there.. so a million times THANK YOU

Codi S. - First of all I must say how professional and honest Max is! I was super nervous about booking a DJ because I have heard some horror stories. Well let me tell you that Max did an amazing job and he was so friendly and organized. He made sure that everything was exactly the way we wanted it right down to the last detail. He even bent over we backwards to mix my father daughter dance song literally the night before our wedding that way it was just the way I wanted it. I will absolutely recommend him to anyone that needs a DJ for a wedding, birthday or any event really. Max, thank you again for making our wedding perfect!
Madison S. - Max was the DJ for our wedding and he really helped contribute to making it the BEST day of our lives! We told him all along we wanted to make sure our guests are having so much fun that they don’t want to leave the dance floor - and he delivered! He was also super easy to talk to and reach throughout the process. He patiently answered all my questions , gave us good recommendations, and made all our special requests happen with traditional Greek and Hungarian songs mixed in. Unlike other some horror stories we had heard about other companies, we never had a worry that we would get ripped off or not get what we expected. Highly recommend Essen Entertainment and DJ Max!
Tony M. - DJ MAX is a great person! Words can't explain what a great person he is.! The best DJ in Houston....I would definitely recommend him for every event that ya'll need. you well not go wrong with him trust me".
Jenny P. -DJ Max has come out to Wallisville, Texas for a year now and has been our #1 DJ for The Park Bar & Grill. His karaoke is A1 and his music playlist is endless, he's very professional, and keeps up with all the new music. His set up is awesome. I recommend him for all you parties, weddings, bars, & just all around music DJ needs. Max Sullivan is a beast when it comes to the best DJs I've heard.
Robyn R. - PERFECT CHOICE!! J.J. and MAX were amazing to work with and were everything we were hoping for in a DJ. Choosing them was our big splurge for our wedding and we are so glad we did. They made the process easy and fun, even though we were planning from across the country. They handled everything professionally yet were light hearted and funny. The day of MAX was able to handle all the unscripted changes the night brought and created an amazing dance party. Thanks again guys!
Jeremy G. - 5 stars is just not enough! Max was absolutely amazing! From our first meeting, to the day of the wedding he took care of any and every detail, to ensure that I had nothing to worry about. With everything going on with the wedding, Max made sure that the planning process regarding the music couldn't be easier. On the day of our actual wedding, he made sure that everyone was up and having a great time at our reception. Our day would have not been nearly as memorable without Max and Essen Entertainment there.. so a million times THANK YOU

DJ GENE'S Reviews
Brooke F. -We could not have picked a better DJ for our wedding! From the start of working with Essen Entertainment, everything was amazing. Gene was our DJ for the big day and he really knew how to keep the party going! He made sure that we had everything we needed to make the day run smoothly and was in constant contact with us up to the day of the wedding. He made everything we wanted possible and was always there to make sure we were happy. Gene made our wedding a fun party for us and all of our guests! I am so thrilled we decided to work with him and would highly recommend Gene and Essen Entertainment to anyone
Betsy R - This was the best DJ experience I could have ever imagined! Anything and everything we needed, it was taken care of!! I will be HIGHLY recommending this Gene for anyone and everyone. Thank you so so much.
Tamara B. - I planned my best friends wedding in under 90 days and was her matron of honor too. Gene made the music part of the day a breeze!! He worked with me and answered all questions I had in a very timely manner. All the guests danced at some point all night long and raved about the music afterwards!! I will be recommending Gene for future DJ needs for friends and family in the future!!!
Colin J. - Gene was absolutely awesome. He made sure every song was on at the right time and that everyone was happy. He even really helped keep our wedding day on track. I highly recommend him to anyone. I just could not be happier.
Gwen F - What better proof of how awesome the services of Gene provided was than the reaction of the crowd itself! Guests were dancing and enjoying the music up until the last song was played. Gene our DJ was fabulous!! He followed our personal song list request to a T!!!! There is no doubt I would use him again. Professional Proficient and Personal are the words I use to describe my new friend Gene.
Brittany Y. - Gene Kept everyone on the dance floor all night and did a great job MC-ing. He kept everything moving for the first dances, toasts and cake cutting so my guests knew what was happening, but he did not over talk and let everyone dance and have a great time. It was perfect
Wendy T. - Gene was the DJ for our wedding through Essen Entertainment and did a fantastic job. He was so easy to work with, and made sure that everything ran smoothly! We met with him a couple times before the wedding so that we could talk about details and what we wanted from the night. He made sure that we had a timeline worked out that would keep the night running smoothly. He put us at ease, and we knew that with him music wasn't something we needed to worry about. He kept the party going all night and everyone raved about the music! He did the music for both our ceremony and reception, and I wouldn't change a thing! We also decided to do a photo booth through Essen Entertainment and are so glad we did. Our guests had a blast with it, and they are more pictures that we get to have from our special day!
Brent G. - Gene was great from start to finish. We made a Google Doc to share and edited the flow of the day as we made changes to the ceremony. His music choices with our light input was excellent and he kept people out on the dance floor long after my wife and I needed to sit down to take a break. From introduction to our conga line and sparkler finish he was there, energetic and amazing the whole way through.
Ashley W. - We absolutely loved having Gene as our DJ. His music selection was fantastic and he knew how to get the crowd excited. Whenever we had phone conferences he was organized and ready to go. He even made sure to have songs that were special for us, but weren’t on their online selection. As he said, “ I don’t see why the bride can’t have what she wants on her wedding”. We’re so lucky to have worked with Essen Entertainment and Gene! We never had to worry or checking on anything the day of our wedding
Lora H. - We used Essen Entertainment to book our DJ (Gene) and our photo booth. The photo booth was great - guests had a blast with it and we got a digital copy of all the photo strips that guests got to take with them. I can’t say enough about DJ Gene - he was so friendly and professional leading up to the wedding and on the big day he read the crowd and kept people dancing until the venue made us leave. More than half of our guests stayed until the bitter end of the reception and it’s because Gene kept the party going. Highly recommend him and Gene(Javier was also super nice and responsive and worked to get us the best rates possible!
