DJ CHARLES' REVIEWS
Brandy H. - Soo very glad we went with Essen Entertainment to DJ our wedding! From the beginning the owner, JJ, was very attentive. Charles was our DJ the night or our wedding he was just as great. The From first song he played to the last song our dance floor was packed at the reception, which is exactly what we wanted. Prior to our wedding, we had a phone call with Charles & went over everything we wanted (special songs, entrances, type of music, etc.) & he fulfilled it all. Even after the wedding JJ reached out to make sure everything went well and thanked us again. Very well run business with great staff!
Lori J. - You cannot go wrong booking Essen Entertainment! Charles DJ'ed our wedding and he was honestly amazing. He reached out to me about a month before the big day to discuss our special songs and "must plays." If I didn't have an answer to a question yet, he made sure to follow up with me a couple weeks later to make sure we were on the same page. Our guests were on the dance floor all night long and I almost cried when he called last song because I was not ready for the fun to be over. If you are thinking about booking Essen Entertainment for your wedding or event, just do it and thank me later!
Sam M. - Essen Entertainment along with DJ Charles provided the entertainment at our daughter’s wedding reception. What an awesome job DJ Charles did! He was on time & set up by the time the reception started. From the moment the guests entered to the close of the evening DJ Charles kept the evening flowing. He was very professional and fun! From the youngsters to the “still young at heart”, everyone had a great time. They complimented the entertainment many times throughout the night.
I highly recommend Essen Entertainment for your next event. Ask for DJ Charles. You won’t be disappointed!
Lauren B. - Outstanding communication throughout the lead-up to the wedding. Very impressed especially by DJ Charles’s ability to adapt to changing circumstances—like when the flower girl and ring bearer jumped their cue and he had the next song (the bride’s entrance) ready to go. Intuitive about what music would get our crowd on the floor and tuned into changes in the schedule. Really polished and professional!

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!
Katy B. - JJ Essen and his team were so professional and easy to work with! We requested a bilingual DJ and were matched up with DJ Charles. He was amazing! He was fun, relaxed, and asked all the right questions! He made sure that everyone was engaged and having a great time and played us the perfect music all night long!

DJ IVAN'S REVIEWS
Sarah B. - I just wanted to reach out and say thank you guys for helping us put together the entertainment for our wedding. Everything turned out wonderful! JJ, we really appreciated the way you called us the first day and went through the timeline and what to expect. It made us feel very comfortable with the whole set-up and took an important part of the event off our plate and gave us a sense of relief that we could pull it off with so little time.Ivan, you were absolutely fantastic. We are so grateful that you were available for that night. You did a really great job managing the timeline and our guests so everything could flow smoothly. We are super appreciative of the way you would check in with us constantly so we could do all the little events we wanted in a timely manner, and we really appreciate all the advice you gave us. The playlist you put together was absolute fire. Everything was perfect! All of our guests had so much fun. We have received nothing but compliments about everything, but we know we couldn’t have done it without you guys. We will definitely recommend you guys any chance we get in the future. Thank you so much for making it one of the most memorable nights of our lives.
Kelcey L. - From day one, JJ was easy to reach and extremely helpful in all aspects of our wedding/planning. He was more than happy to answer all our questions and walk us through each step. He gave us a layout on how to pick songs for each portion of the wedding; ceremony, cocktail, dinner, dancing. Our DJ for the wedding day was Ivan. He was there for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. When we started talking to the DJ, they mentioned that they are the vendor that's going to set the mood for the whole wedding which was absolutely right. Ivan brought life to our wedding! He was on top of announcements, had all the songs we requested, and even asked permission before playing requested songs that were on our "no play" list. He stayed in constant communication with the wedding planner and the venue management to make sure everything went smoothly. We loved working with JJ ESSEN and were so thankful for DJ Ivan
Breanna P. - Essen Entertainment was wonderful to work with!! They were quick to respond to emails and catered to your every need leading up to the day! Dj Ivan was WONDERFUL at our wedding and had our guests out on the dance floor all night!! Even the older gen crowd! It was truly wonderful!

Carlos A. - We reached out to JJ based on the great reviews on theknot.com. Let me just stay they lived up to every great review!!! JJ contacted us to make sure we had all our questions answered. Having never planned a wedding before, we were clueless as to timelines, music vibes, etc. He gave us so much knowledge while getting to know our vision as a couple. After getting to know our vision, he realized we would be a better match for a DJ who he contracted. He had us get in touch with him and made sure we meshed well before completely handing us off to DJ Ivan. I would recommend JJ to anyone! Ivan was a godsend! He was available for any concerns or questions. HE BROUGHT THE PARTY!! And he made sure it lasted till the last minute. During our wedding, Ivan adjusted our timeline based on how we were feeling in that moment. When the garter toss came, my wife hadn’t eaten and Ivan made sure to hold off on the toss until we were ready. He made sure we were taken care of and enjoying every moment of our wedding. We danced all night and even had glow sticks/party hats/LED glasses for him to toss during the reception. The DJ makes all the difference in your wedding and I could not be more happier at the company we chose. 10000% recommend.
Marion G. - Essen Entertainment was an amazing DJ vendor for our wedding! DJ Ivan was our DJ for the wedding and he did a great job!! The one thing I wanted out of a DJ was to make sure that everyone was always dancing and he did just that! I had guests tell me they never left the dance floor and we also received so many compliments about the music he played. Everyone loved the mix of genres and classics! From the beginning, JJ was extremely helpful and gave us very detailed information about their services and what to expect. They also did a great job at communicating whenever we would text or email them. I definitely recommend Essen Entertainment
Chelsea M. - DJ Ivan did such a great job with our wedding!! We went with a new orelans style reception which a bit of our guests were not familiar with but Ivan did fantastic with casually making the necessary announcements to guide those who werent used to the flow of that style! Then once the dancing started it never stopped! We also used the photobooth which was a huge hit for our guests to add an extra layer of fun!!
Lezlee M. - The communication with JJ was great during the planning process. DJ Ivan was able to make special requests happen and edited together our first dance songs. DJ Ivan did an amazing job during the wedding and kept everything running smoothly! I would highly recommend Essen Entertainment!
Heather T. - DJ Ivan did a wonderful job! He was accepting when we sent a very last minute reception intro song and did a good job of keeping the party going. He was also helpful with the photobooth. JJ was also such a great contact and so helpful in the beginning of the process.
Melinda L. - JJ introduced us to our DJ very early on in our planning process. This allowed us to get started right away in discussing the music and suggestions. DJ Ivan was not only a breeze to work with but he was great at entertaining our guests. I’ve heard from multiple people that our wedding was the best they had ever been to and I credit DJ Ivan for that! In hiring a DJ, it’s important to hire someone who is collaborative in working with other vendors and your event coordinator. For this reason I strongly urge anyone and everyone to hire DJ Ivan for their event.
Allie P. - We worked alongside DJ Ivan for a wedding in 2021 and had Ana amazing experience. He was professional, fun and great at giving directions on the mic and helping the wedding flow. Highly recommend!
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!
Jessica S. - DJ Ivan and J.J.! Thank you for doing an amazing job on our wedding! Not only did you both have a positive and professional attitude throughout the few days we had to quickly plan out our music selection, but you went above and beyond for me (the very busy and overwhelmed bride, lol) to help figure out all the little details that made our wedding reception an absolutely fantastic evening! We received compliments from all of our guest on what a fantastic job you did and on the perfect selection of music. Ivan, you also did a fantastic job as DJ, coordinating the evening and making sure things moved along smoothly without a hitch. We can't say enough good things about our entire experience and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a quality DJ. Thank you again and God bless.
The Sterling Family
Brandi R. - JJ was so great to work with, it was definitely an easy sell from our first conversation with him. He was super knowledgeable, friendly and easy to communicate with. He gave us such great resources to help aid in figuring out what music we wanted and asked us great questions about things we hadn't thought about. DJ Ivan was hyping us up since the first call we had with him. He was offering any help he could and had a great playlist for our wedding. He was also a great MC keeping the night flowing. Everyone had a great time dancing! I would definitely recommend JJ and his team for a successful night!
Lizbeth C. - When things go wrong, and I mean they will at the wedding, especially with the COVID 19 situation, details and initiative are important. Lets just say that the morning of my wedding things went wrong. Fortunately for me, DJ Ivan showed up even earlier and noticed the situation and took the initiative to take over the timeline and make it happen! He made sure details were covered and important moments were not missed! The experience and motivation was seen through out. Many compliments were given because of my DJ. Definitely worth your money! Especially with a difficult crowd and the pandemic in the mist. My wedding was amazing! Everyone had a great time too! Thank you for the tremendous work!!! I rate Essen Entertainment and DJ Ivan 5 stars! Not just because he did a great job at my wedding; but because I compared other DJ's weddings and noticed the difference! I was just glad that the investment was worth it!!!!
Emily D. - Dj Ivan was amazing! Both JJ and Ivan were very professional and made my night extremely stress free. I can’t brag on DJ Ivan enough. He took the time to talk with me to make sure my reception was absolutely perfect. Can’t wait to use them for future events
Kristen T - DJ Ivan was absolutely amazing, he couldn’t have done a better job at making our wedding everything we wanted it to be. Both me and my now husband have such a wide variety of music taste and he truly was able to play all kinds and make it flow perfectly! So impressed. The photo booth also was a perfect addition to our wedding! I can’t say enough great things about DJ Ivan and this company in general. Save yourself the stress and book them!❣️
Will H. - DJ Ivan was very professional and easy to work with. He didn't miss a single cue and read the room perfectly - the music was perfect. 100% would recommend Essen Entertainment and DJ Ivan.
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!
Sandra G. - From my first conversation with JJ at Essen Entertainment, I knew we would be in good hands. JJ is so professional and always quick to respond. My daughter’s wedding was postponed twice due to the pandemic, and JJ was very flexible in rescheduling. Our DJ for the wedding was Ivan. Ivan made certain to find out not only what my daughter and her (now) husband wanted him to play, but also anything they specifically did not want. When Ivan was setting up for the wedding, something shorted in the sound board, and fried his laptop. Ever the professional, Ivan had a backup computer with him. Essen Entertainment also provided a photo booth operated by Javier. That turned out to be a huge hit! I highly recommend JJ and Essen Entertainment, DJ Ivan, and Javier for your wedding or other event!
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!
Mark R. - Our wedding was perfect thanks to all of our vendors especially Ivan our DJ. He fulfilled all of our needs and did a fantastic job. I thoroughly enjoyed the music he played (off the hip) so to speak throughout the evening. I recommend Ivan to anyone!
Valery C. - DJ Ivan was AMAZING!!! He kept ALLLLLL of our guests on the dancefloor the entire time. Not to brag or anything lol,... but tons (literally the majority) of our guests told us it was the funnest wedding they have ever been to!!! And I know for a FACT that is all thanks to Ivan!! I will definitely keep him at the top of my list for any future events. You will not regret booking him! :)
Michael G. - When I first submitted an inquiry for our DJ, I was contacted that same day. JJ was unbelievably helpful and was able to help us coordinate a timeline for our wedding. It was reassuring to know that he's done this a thousand times before. Our DJ was Ivan and he was awesome. Kept in touch with my wife and I throughout the whole process. Was on time, helped us with our playlist and any of our other needs. I'd recommend these guys to everyone's wedding! I'm grateful to JJ and Ivan for making our special day fun and stress free!
Jennifer S. -DJ Ivan Is the absolute BEST! We had music picked out for every part of our wedding and he executed it all!!! He was very great at getting the audience up and participating! We also had the dance on a cloud, up lights, our logo and he did amazing at making that all look perfect!! Our photo booth was bomb too! He gave us a book with every picture that someone took @ the photo booth!! You need to hire DJ Ivan!!!!!
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!
Danielle H. - Ivan kept up with the schedule all night. He also knew how to get the party going! You could tell he can read the crowd well and played song types they responded to! He did a great job and was very nice!
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.
Samantha R. - DJ Ivan with Essen Entertainment was am awesome DJ for our mixed Spanish and English speaking crowd at our wedding. DJ Ivan was communicative leading up to the event and was a true professional. He ensured the event ran smoothly, entertaining our guests and made sure everyone had a blast. What a great hire, we can’t wait to hire him for other events in the future.
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!

JJ, we really appreciated the way you called us the first day and went through the timeline and what to expect.

We are so grateful that you were available for that night. You did a really great job managing the timeline and our guests so everything could flow smoothly. We are super appreciative of the way you would check in with us constantly so we could do all the little events we wanted in a timely manner, and we really appreciate all the advice you gave us. The playlist you put together was absolute fire. Everything was perfect! All of our guests had so much fun. We have received nothing but compliments about everything, but we know we couldn’t have done it without you guys. We will definitely recommend you guys any chance we get in the future. Thank you so much for making it one of the most memorable nights of our lives.
Kelcey L. - From day one, JJ was easy to reach and extremely helpful in all aspects of our wedding/planning. He was more than happy to answer all our questions and walk us through each step. He gave us a layout on how to pick songs for each portion of the wedding; ceremony, cocktail, dinner, dancing. Our DJ for the wedding day was Ivan. He was there for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. When we started talking to the DJ, they mentioned that they are the vendor that's going to set the mood for the whole wedding which was absolutely right. Ivan brought life to our wedding! He was on top of announcements, had all the songs we requested, and even asked permission before playing requested songs that were on our "no play" list. He stayed in constant communication with the wedding planner and the venue management to make sure everything went smoothly. We loved working with JJ ESSEN and were so thankful for DJ Ivan
Breanna P. - Essen Entertainment was wonderful to work with!! They were quick to respond to emails and catered to your every need leading up to the day! Dj Ivan was WONDERFUL at our wedding and had our guests out on the dance floor all night!! Even the older gen crowd! It was truly wonderful!

Carlos A. - We reached out to JJ based on the great reviews on theknot.com. Let me just stay they lived up to every great review!!! JJ contacted us to make sure we had all our questions answered. Having never planned a wedding before, we were clueless as to timelines, music vibes, etc. He gave us so much knowledge while getting to know our vision as a couple. After getting to know our vision, he realized we would be a better match for a DJ who he contracted. He had us get in touch with him and made sure we meshed well before completely handing us off to DJ Ivan. I would recommend JJ to anyone! Ivan was a godsend! He was available for any concerns or questions. HE BROUGHT THE PARTY!! And he made sure it lasted till the last minute. During our wedding, Ivan adjusted our timeline based on how we were feeling in that moment. When the garter toss came, my wife hadn’t eaten and Ivan made sure to hold off on the toss until we were ready. He made sure we were taken care of and enjoying every moment of our wedding. We danced all night and even had glow sticks/party hats/LED glasses for him to toss during the reception. The DJ makes all the difference in your wedding and I could not be more happier at the company we chose. 10000% recommend.
Marion G. - Essen Entertainment was an amazing DJ vendor for our wedding! DJ Ivan was our DJ for the wedding and he did a great job!! The one thing I wanted out of a DJ was to make sure that everyone was always dancing and he did just that! I had guests tell me they never left the dance floor and we also received so many compliments about the music he played. Everyone loved the mix of genres and classics! From the beginning, JJ was extremely helpful and gave us very detailed information about their services and what to expect. They also did a great job at communicating whenever we would text or email them. I definitely recommend Essen Entertainment
Chelsea M. - DJ Ivan did such a great job with our wedding!! We went with a new orelans style reception which a bit of our guests were not familiar with but Ivan did fantastic with casually making the necessary announcements to guide those who werent used to the flow of that style! Then once the dancing started it never stopped! We also used the photobooth which was a huge hit for our guests to add an extra layer of fun!!
Lezlee M. - The communication with JJ was great during the planning process. DJ Ivan was able to make special requests happen and edited together our first dance songs. DJ Ivan did an amazing job during the wedding and kept everything running smoothly! I would highly recommend Essen Entertainment!
Heather T. - DJ Ivan did a wonderful job! He was accepting when we sent a very last minute reception intro song and did a good job of keeping the party going. He was also helpful with the photobooth. JJ was also such a great contact and so helpful in the beginning of the process.
Melinda L. - JJ introduced us to our DJ very early on in our planning process. This allowed us to get started right away in discussing the music and suggestions. DJ Ivan was not only a breeze to work with but he was great at entertaining our guests. I’ve heard from multiple people that our wedding was the best they had ever been to and I credit DJ Ivan for that! In hiring a DJ, it’s important to hire someone who is collaborative in working with other vendors and your event coordinator. For this reason I strongly urge anyone and everyone to hire DJ Ivan for their event.
Allie P. - We worked alongside DJ Ivan for a wedding in 2021 and had Ana amazing experience. He was professional, fun and great at giving directions on the mic and helping the wedding flow. Highly recommend!
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!
Jessica S. - DJ Ivan and J.J.! Thank you for doing an amazing job on our wedding! Not only did you both have a positive and professional attitude throughout the few days we had to quickly plan out our music selection, but you went above and beyond for me (the very busy and overwhelmed bride, lol) to help figure out all the little details that made our wedding reception an absolutely fantastic evening! We received compliments from all of our guest on what a fantastic job you did and on the perfect selection of music. Ivan, you also did a fantastic job as DJ, coordinating the evening and making sure things moved along smoothly without a hitch. We can't say enough good things about our entire experience and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a quality DJ. Thank you again and God bless.
The Sterling Family
Brandi R. - JJ was so great to work with, it was definitely an easy sell from our first conversation with him. He was super knowledgeable, friendly and easy to communicate with. He gave us such great resources to help aid in figuring out what music we wanted and asked us great questions about things we hadn't thought about. DJ Ivan was hyping us up since the first call we had with him. He was offering any help he could and had a great playlist for our wedding. He was also a great MC keeping the night flowing. Everyone had a great time dancing! I would definitely recommend JJ and his team for a successful night!
Lizbeth C. - When things go wrong, and I mean they will at the wedding, especially with the COVID 19 situation, details and initiative are important. Lets just say that the morning of my wedding things went wrong. Fortunately for me, DJ Ivan showed up even earlier and noticed the situation and took the initiative to take over the timeline and make it happen! He made sure details were covered and important moments were not missed! The experience and motivation was seen through out. Many compliments were given because of my DJ. Definitely worth your money! Especially with a difficult crowd and the pandemic in the mist. My wedding was amazing! Everyone had a great time too! Thank you for the tremendous work!!! I rate Essen Entertainment and DJ Ivan 5 stars! Not just because he did a great job at my wedding; but because I compared other DJ's weddings and noticed the difference! I was just glad that the investment was worth it!!!!
Emily D. - Dj Ivan was amazing! Both JJ and Ivan were very professional and made my night extremely stress free. I can’t brag on DJ Ivan enough. He took the time to talk with me to make sure my reception was absolutely perfect. Can’t wait to use them for future events
Kristen T - DJ Ivan was absolutely amazing, he couldn’t have done a better job at making our wedding everything we wanted it to be. Both me and my now husband have such a wide variety of music taste and he truly was able to play all kinds and make it flow perfectly! So impressed. The photo booth also was a perfect addition to our wedding! I can’t say enough great things about DJ Ivan and this company in general. Save yourself the stress and book them!❣️
Will H. - DJ Ivan was very professional and easy to work with. He didn't miss a single cue and read the room perfectly - the music was perfect. 100% would recommend Essen Entertainment and DJ Ivan.
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!
Sandra G. - From my first conversation with JJ at Essen Entertainment, I knew we would be in good hands. JJ is so professional and always quick to respond. My daughter’s wedding was postponed twice due to the pandemic, and JJ was very flexible in rescheduling. Our DJ for the wedding was Ivan. Ivan made certain to find out not only what my daughter and her (now) husband wanted him to play, but also anything they specifically did not want. When Ivan was setting up for the wedding, something shorted in the sound board, and fried his laptop. Ever the professional, Ivan had a backup computer with him. Essen Entertainment also provided a photo booth operated by Javier. That turned out to be a huge hit! I highly recommend JJ and Essen Entertainment, DJ Ivan, and Javier for your wedding or other event!
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!
Mark R. - Our wedding was perfect thanks to all of our vendors especially Ivan our DJ. He fulfilled all of our needs and did a fantastic job. I thoroughly enjoyed the music he played (off the hip) so to speak throughout the evening. I recommend Ivan to anyone!
Valery C. - DJ Ivan was AMAZING!!! He kept ALLLLLL of our guests on the dancefloor the entire time. Not to brag or anything lol,... but tons (literally the majority) of our guests told us it was the funnest wedding they have ever been to!!! And I know for a FACT that is all thanks to Ivan!! I will definitely keep him at the top of my list for any future events. You will not regret booking him! :)
Michael G. - When I first submitted an inquiry for our DJ, I was contacted that same day. JJ was unbelievably helpful and was able to help us coordinate a timeline for our wedding. It was reassuring to know that he's done this a thousand times before. Our DJ was Ivan and he was awesome. Kept in touch with my wife and I throughout the whole process. Was on time, helped us with our playlist and any of our other needs. I'd recommend these guys to everyone's wedding! I'm grateful to JJ and Ivan for making our special day fun and stress free!
Jennifer S. -DJ Ivan Is the absolute BEST! We had music picked out for every part of our wedding and he executed it all!!! He was very great at getting the audience up and participating! We also had the dance on a cloud, up lights, our logo and he did amazing at making that all look perfect!! Our photo booth was bomb too! He gave us a book with every picture that someone took @ the photo booth!! You need to hire DJ Ivan!!!!!
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!
Danielle H. - Ivan kept up with the schedule all night. He also knew how to get the party going! You could tell he can read the crowd well and played song types they responded to! He did a great job and was very nice!
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.
Samantha R. - DJ Ivan with Essen Entertainment was am awesome DJ for our mixed Spanish and English speaking crowd at our wedding. DJ Ivan was communicative leading up to the event and was a true professional. He ensured the event ran smoothly, entertaining our guests and made sure everyone had a blast. What a great hire, we can’t wait to hire him for other events in the future.
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.

DJ DEAN'S REVIEWS
Amanda H. - Essen Entertainment was absolutely AMAZING to work with!!! They had everything from the perfect uplighting to coordinate with our wedding colors, to photo booths with so many background options!!! I called him just a few months before our wedding. Not being from, or living in Texas, I could only go on the recommendations from our venue. They were HIGHLY recommended! J.J. was very thorough in explaining everything with me from the beginning , and even helped me explain what I wanted! I wanted to be sure that I had paid for a dance floor that was going to be used (not to watch my guests sit at tables and hear crickets in between songs) and DJ DEAN DID NOT DISAPPOINT! . At the end of the night, most of our guests were still there, and wanted more! My husband and I had a great time, and our special day could not have been more memorable!!!! Thank you so much Essen Entertainment (all of you!!!), for making every minute so memorable and worth every penny!!!! You guys were absolutely incredible and I would very highly recommend you to anyone!
Rachel T. - I was very impressed! We used Essen Ent. for the DJ and photo booth. We did not have a lot of specific songs we wanted to play and based off of a list we provided DJ DEAN played perfect music! I would highly recommend the photo booth!

Nicole P. - DJ DEAN of Essen Entertainment kept the vibe of our wedding going all night . We also had the Photo Booth through their services and that was a hit for all of our guest.

We couldn’t really decide what songs we wanted to play for our wedding and their TOP WEDDING song selections helped a lot. We loved doing business with them. Very Professional and flexible. Highly recommended to anyone that is looking for a fun and awesome DJ.
Christina Q - I could not have dreamed of a better DJ experience than what we got with Essen Entertainment and DJ Dean! They were very helpful during the planning process and very responsive to emails and phone calls. They were very professional of course and prepared. What I couldn't anticipate was how well Dean could read the room and select the perfect songs with almost no input from us. The lighting gave a great party atmosphere. His announcements were easy to hear and follow. The sound levels were just right. I definitely didn't have to worry about a thing. I can't say enough positive things about our DJ experience. Please choose Dean and Essen Entertainment for your wedding! You won't regret it!!!

We had Dj Dean and he had a great feel for the environment of the people in attendance for filling in the music to fit the mood as well as getting every single one of the obscure songs we wanted and queuing them up to the exact point in the song thay we wanted. Best of all they tossed a few suggestions at us for very small add on that adding magnifying effect. They're wonderful and I couldn't recommend them more.
Brooke R. - Dean was great to work with! He took our vision and ran with it better than we knew how to describe. Great mix of songs if you're not sure what direction to go in and easy to work with.

He is super relaxed and made the whole wedding great. He was very professional. He introduced the wedding party and we all felt so comfortable when we entered the reception. Everything was so organized. The systems he uses are great. He has a program where you pick all of your music and can even add songs you don't want to hear. The photo booth and props he had were so much fun. 5 stars all around!
Ashely W. - Dean was awesome! He did a great job announcing the traditional wedding reception things like the bouquet toss, garter toss, shoe game, etc, and even accommodated impromptu karaoke by the groom. He was able to get all of the songs we requested for use during the wedding ceremony and the special songs for the reception.
Brian T. - We used Essen Entertainment for our wedding and they were amazing! Dean was very helpful with the planning and made sure all the right music was played.

Essen Entertainment definitely helped make our wedding perfect!
Lauren F. - Essen Entertainment was awesome as our wedding DJ! We provided a custom made playlist and Dean mixed in similar songs I hadn’t even thought of that really got the dance floor hopping!

We loved working with Essen Entertainment, who came highly recommended by our wedding venue and we couldn’t agree more!

Sara B. - Essen Entertainment knocked it out of the park with our wedding. We had Dj Dean and he had a great feel for the environment of the people in attendance for filling in the music to fit the mood as well as getting every single one of the obscure songs we wanted and queuing them up to the exact point in the song thay we wanted. Best of all they tossed a few suggestions at us for very small add on that adding magnifying effect. They're wonderful and I couldn't recommend them more.
Brooke R. - Dean was great to work with! He took our vision and ran with it better than we knew how to describe. Great mix of songs if you're not sure what direction to go in and easy to work with.
Hillary G. - Dean went above and beyond for our wedding. The music was great sound quality and was the perfect volume. His equipment is awesome. We highly recommend using Dean. He is super relaxed and made the whole wedding great. He was very professional. He introduced the wedding party and we all felt so comfortable when we entered the reception. Everything was so organized. The systems he uses are great. He has a program where you pick all of your music and can even add songs you don't want to hear. The photo booth and props he had were so much fun. 5 stars all around!
Ashely W. - Dean was awesome! He did a great job announcing the traditional wedding reception things like the bouquet toss, garter toss, shoe game, etc, and even accommodated impromptu karaoke by the groom. He was able to get all of the songs we requested for use during the wedding ceremony and the special songs for the reception.
Brian T. - We used Essen Entertainment for our wedding and they were amazing! Dean was very helpful with the planning and made sure all the right music was played. I was worried the reception might get a little boring if people wouldn't dance, but they kept the party going all night! The photo booth was a great touch and everyone had fun with it. Essen Entertainment definitely helped make our wedding perfect!
Lauren F. - Essen Entertainment was awesome as our wedding DJ! We provided a custom made playlist and Dean mixed in similar songs I hadn’t even thought of that really got the dance floor hopping! The set up of the DJ booth, lights, mics during the vows were all included in the extremely reasonable price. We loved working with Essen Entertainment, who came highly recommended by our wedding venue and we couldn’t agree more!

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
Lauren W- Max did a great job as the DJ of our wedding. He is very nice and very professional. My husband was impressed at how every time he wanted to make an (unplanned) announcement to our guests, Max was right there ready to pass him a mic or make an announcement that he was about to speak. In addition to that, Max worked closely with my coordinator and gave us 50 sparklers that we needed. The sparklers were a last minute idea and Max pulled through for us! Thank you, Max for a great night! -Lauren and Stephen
Connor V. -I don’t even know how to begin other than to say that Essen Entertainment and DJ Max were an absolute blessing. He is an absolutely amazing DJ who puts so much care into what he does. He really came through for us at very short notice when our original DJ fell through. He cared so much about us and bringing our wedding to life and really pulled out the stops. He made everything so easy on us, and we got so many compliments on the music from our guests. People were dancing in their seats to the music. It was so incredible! He was a fantastic emcee as well and kept everyone enthused. I would recommend him to anyone in a heart beat. Words really don’t cover what an amazing person and DJ this guy is!! 💜 perfect!!!
Amanda H. - DJ Max did a really great job and was very easy to work with. He made our reception really fun and I liked how nice he was to our guests about music requests. He was prepared and made sure to ask us many detailed questions well in advance. He was willing to make any changes we needed and was a great sport the whole event. He was very reasonably priced and we are very grateful for his contribution to our special day. He set up his microphone for our ceremony and knew everything he needed to do for the whole event. We are very glad we chose him and I would definitely recommend him as a DJ for anyone's event or wedding. Thank you so much Max!!!

Definitely hire Max for your next event! You will not regret it!
Taylor M - My husband and I hired Essen Entertainment and DJ Max to do our wedding earlier this March and he was a true gem!! We loved that he already knew the venue (Miller's Creek Rustic Events), and he knew exactly what to do and where to go. He showed up early, set up was quick, and he played exactly what we wanted. He even took requests from the audience on what they would like. 😊 I will definitely be using Max again in the future for any event! Highly recommend him and is a very sweet man!
Katie S. - DJ Max played every song we wanted at our wedding and avoiding the ones we dont , along with those that got our guest out of their seats and onto the dance floor.

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.

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.

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

Matt & Shelly M. – What a job well done by DJ Koert at our wedding! Our reception on July 30th went great and a big part of that was Essen Entertainment services and Koert as the DJ. We’ve heard back from a bunch of the guests and they all had positive things to say about the music and overall flow of the day
Sheila H. – I was concerned if a DJ could keep guests engaged and provide variety and be worth the money but that worry was put aside once we hired Essen Entertainment. We liked how DJ Korea kept people dancing, kept the schedule moving and did great mixing of great music. Hire DJ Koert, you will not find anyone better!
Fran B. - Before hiring a DJ we had hear horror stories of them not show up or be late. That they wouldn’t keep the party lively and the kids happy. We had never hired a DJ before but J.J. at Essen Entertainment made this process SO EASY! Turns out, I worried for nothing!. Our wedding was perfect and that was in large part bc of JJ and Koert!
Grace L. – A wedding is a big celebration that needed good music to dance to. Koert played all of our great music, lots of interaction, and made it an amazing time for our family and friends. He made everyone dance and no one had a bad time. Everyone was tired from dancing all night.
Candy R. – We took great comfort in knowing DJ Koert was our DJ because we saw him at another wedding reception. He was very good at keeping the reception flowing. We had a mix of age groups and you played something for everyone. He has a talent for mixing it up.! He plays the type of music you recommend and has a talent to keep people on the dance floor.
Dan R. – Essen Entertainment came recommended by one of my friends and we are so happy we chose them!.

I was completely satisfied with our experience with Essen Entertainment. Know that DJ Koert is a exciting DJ that gets the job done while having fun.
Jennifer D. – DJ Koert was the DJ for my daughters wedding. My husband had vey specific ideas on what songs he and my daughter wanted played.

I can honestly recommend his services, great personality and guaranteed fun time!

Sandra T. - DJ JO was our DJ and he made our wedding an absolute BLAST of a party! He met with us before the wedding to introduce himself and meet us, to understand the vibe of what we were looking for, and to go over any specific songs we did/did not want played. We really wanted to have a lot of dancing at our wedding so we knew hiring the right DJ for us was make or break. Jo played a variety of music for every to enjoy from current hits to early 2000s throwbacks. Every guest I talked to the next day told me how much their feet hurt from partying and I call that a huge success!
George Y. - DJ Jo was so awesome and professional! We could not have made a better choice!! Even though our day of schedule went a bit different he went along so well and I can’t say enough good things!
Brandyn N. - Wow! Our experience with Essen Entertainment was absolutely amazing from start to finish! JJ was always very responsive about getting exactly what we wanted- a DJ and a Photobooth. The Photobooth was a hit and the attendant was super nice! Our DJ, Jo, could was incredible. He was very knowledgeable about the music we wanted and added great additions to it! He worked very well with our venue and getting things moved last minute due to a heavy down pour of rain! Things cleared up, and Jose kept the party alive! Thank you so much to everyone at Essen! You guys are great!
Chrissy N. -Essen Entertainment is the BEST! They were recommended to us by many people and we couldn't have been happier with our experience for our wedding! Jo was so easy to work with and nailed every detail we asked for!! He wanted to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it to be and allowed us to create our own playlist for the reception. He also made the effort to make sure he had every wedding party member's first and last name pronounced correctly. We also used their sparklers for our send off and they looked incredible in photos! Highly recommend Essen!
Ashley S. - DJ Jo was seriously phenomenal!!!! My guests and I were wanting a more club type reception and he gave us exactly that. He played great music and even changed the songs instantly when we weren’t feeling it. He also did amazing with everything leading up to the reception (i.e. ceremony, cocktail hour, announcing). If I ever need a DJ in the future, there’s no one else I think I would use besides premier and DJ Jose!
Natalie G. - I cannot recommend this company and these employees enough! Especially JJ and DJ Jo!They all worked to make my photo booth personal, and the dance floor constant.

Thank y’all for making my day so special and FUN!
Kerry T. - Jo was awesome, friendly and very helpful! We loved their process and being able to use Spotify. Jose made everything about the music easy. Would definitely recommend Essen Entertainment!
Javier G. - Jo did a fantastic job as the DJ for my wedding! He called us before the wedding to learn about our guests and the vibe we were hoping to create.

He did an excellent job blending two cultures. It was a true party with a PACKED dance floor the ENTIRE evening
Hillary J. -DJ Jo was a fantastic DJ at our wedding on October 10th. He did an excellent job feeling the crowd and selecting songs he knew would get our guests dancing. He was such a trooper. Even with some rain blowing on his back he kept playing music and the party alive. We cannot say enough good things about both him and Essen Entertainment. We still are getting messages about how great he was. I would recommend him for any event!!!
Terri L. - Jo from Essen Entertainment was AWESOME. We had an older crowd at our wedding, so it was difficult to get everyone to dance, but Justin did great and those who did dance had a BLAST. Jose really understood our taste in music and picked out songs perfectly. I was singing and dancing all night. He also was really good at keeping the night flowing and checking in with us during the reception. He did an AMAZING job. Highly, highly, highly recommend!
Eddy W. - Essen Entertainment was by far the BEST choice we could’ve made! Jo was our DJ for our wedding last weekend, and he put so much time, effort, and detail into making sure all the songs matched up, flowed well, and kept people dancing! Premier is very good at keeping in touch with you as your planning your event, and very easy to get a hold of when you need them! I HIGHLY recommend Essen, especially Jo!
Lindsey H. - Essen Entertainment was AMAZING! J.J. was so Fast to respond and works with you the whole way through. Jo was the DJ for our wedding and he was excellent.

Matthew W. - Scott from Essen Entertainment was a wonderful DJ and made our night really special. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a great DJ for their wedding. Everyone commented on how great they thought the music was. We really liked his thoroughness before our wedding in helping us choose songs, sorting out our timeline, and making us feel comfortable throughout the whole thing.

Velarie J. - I wish I could give them more than 5 stars! Literally the best & easiest vendors to work with. Not only do they reach out ‘ let you know when you have payments coming up but they are incredible at communicating. We hired the string trio & DJ Scott! Both absolutely incredible! The string trio sounded so beautiful & added a beautiful touch. Scott was such an amazing person to work with! Brought the energy and knew how to get every single person at our wedding dance! Hire them if they are not booked already!!
Jason Y. - Oh man, where do I begin. So easy to work with and such a fun group! Scott. If I could give him 20/10 I would! He was amazing in every aspect! He took all of the music ideas we wanted and executed them perfectly! The dance floor was never empty and the night went on and on! He was the extra pair of hands he promised he’d be and so much more! Always checking in and making sure we were taken care of and having fun! I cannot thank him enough for the perfect night!

Aaron G. - Essen Entertainment was wonderful! Each contact was personal and not a form email, we really felt in control, yet guided by experts.

Our wedding had a few semi-last minute changes and I never felt as if we were putting DJ Scott out, he was excited to make our evening work. I wholeheartedly recommend Both Essen Entertainment and DJ Scott to ANYONE looking to make their wedding perfect.
Drea D. - What a fun night. DJ Scott 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.

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 Scott 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 could not be happier.

Rachel I. - Scott 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. - Scott 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, Scott 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"
Stephanie D. - DJ Scott is a fantastic, professional, and fun DJ. He was super organized and easy to work with during the planning process. On the day of my wedding, he handled everything from the music, to the mics, to the announcements. Multiple guests complimented his music selections and I LOVED the music. He took the suggestions we put together and created a wonderful musical backdrop to our evening. My family isn't big on dancing but I saw them get up a few times to dance and everyone had a great time. Thank you, Scott!
Henry P. - My wife and I had heard great things about Essen Entertainment Events so we decided to give them a try. I will say everything we heard was spot on, and they were even better than we expected. Essen was very professional with everything they did, and if we ever had any questions they were very quick to get back to us with helpful answers. The day of our wedding was seamless. DJ SCOTT helped organize and make sure everything was moving along the way it should have. When it came time to dancing the music was amazing and exactly what we were hoping for. I would highly recommend Essen Entertainment for any party or wedding you have coming up.

DJ ERICK'S REVIEWS
Frank H. - DJ Erick is the absolute BEST! We are so happy we hired him for our wedding. We had a very small wedding with only about 27 guests, but he was very intentional about his music choices and got everyone on the dance floor. He really understood the vibe and brought everyone together - it was so much fun! Our family and friends raved about him. He played all of our favorite songs and genres. Essen Entertainment truly exceeded our expectations! Such an awesome experience. I would highly recommend Erick to any couples looking for a great wedding DJ!
Heather Y. - I told JJ I wanted my wedding night to be a giant party with all my closest friends and family, and boy, di they rise to the expectation! DJ ERICK kept everyone on the dance floor from the first to the last song, and played a wide variety of music from classic oldies, hip hop/rap, and throwback hits. He also mashed up a few songs for my dad and I’s first dance and it was one of the highlights of the night. I would absolutely recommend Erick for a wedding or really any party in general-he is the BEST!!
Stephanie R. - DJ Erick literally killed it. Not only did he do a fantastic job with the music, but he also seamlessly integrated all sound for the reception and ceremony. He is the best at what he does and we would recommend him to anyone!
Teresa F. - Erick did a great job at our wedding! The music was great and everyone had so much fun! We had so much fun we danced through the garner toss portion of the wedding and completely forgot about it. He did a excellent job during the actual ceremony as well. Its crazy to say but we had NO issues on the day of our wedding! He was on time, no ones name was called incorrectly and no power went out lol. Thanks Erick! Highly recommended
Brandi J. - Erick was absolutely amazing!! He was engaging, kind, helpful, passionate and just all around the best DJ would could have asked for during our wedding. He played guitar for our ceremony and cocktail hour and played all our favorite songs at the reception. You can clearly tell how much he truly enjoys what he does and that translate to getting everyone on the dance floor. I can't tell you how many of our guests came up to us to tell us how great they thought Erick was! He came highly recommended and yet still exceeded expectations. Just perfect
Sarah D. We booked Essen Entertainment and DJ Erick for our wedding and words can't explain how much of an amazing job he did! Our guests still talk about how talented he is and his DJ set kept our guests on the dance floor all night!! Erick took the time to discuss our music style beforehand and get a full understanding of what we wanted for our wedding. We and our guests had an absolute BLAST and we can't thank Erick enough! Jasmine + Daniel
Keith G. - Unlike other vendors, JJ Essen made us feel like his only client. Every email was responded to quickly and our planning phone call was filled with excitement and enthusiasm on his side that exceeded our expectations. We were paired with DJ Erick and He was able to meet our specific requests but also did a fantastic job on improving when necessary based on the atmosphere. Our guests were thoroughly impressed with the performance. It was a pleasure to work with a company who is so passionate about what they do. Highly recommended!
Ashley W. - DJ Erick absolutely crushed every aspect of DJ'ing our wedding. He was flexible with our date change and communicated clearly and often leading up to our event. His performance was one-of-a-kind; people are still raving about “Erick the DJ" from our wedding weeks later. Great job, Erick. Highly recommend
Nancy L. This was one of the best decisions we made about the wedding! Erick and the Essen Ent. team did an amazing job - the music was incredible! We were so very happy with the entire music selection, the team, the overall experience was wonderful, and it truly was one of the best weddings ever! So grateful for the entire team!
Whitney Z. - If you want your wedding to be a 100% guaranteed blast for yourself and your guests, you MUST book Essen Entertainment and request Erick as the DJ. He DJ'ed our reception and played guitar for our cocktail for our June wedding. He kept all our guests on the dance floor from the moment he announced the dance floor was open. We had the absolute greatest time dancing thanks to his music selections. We cannot recommend Erick enough for your special day!

DJ VICTOR'S REVIEWS
Sarah G. - Victor did an AWESOME job at our wedding. He listened to the type of music we were interested in our guests hearing and really delivered! All of his cues were on point and his suggestion of the "Anniversary Game" was so fun for the older couples in the crowd. He also provided lighting and uplighting for the venue which really turned out to be absolutely beautiful. I suggest DEFINITELY getting the photo booth if you can. They provide a guest book with all of the photos your guests take and it's such a great keepsake since you'll be running around talking to everyone the day of. I would highly recommend Essen Entertainment to anyone getting married
Christina E. - DJ Victor did an awesome job at our wedding! He was so great to work with through rescheduling due to COVID and was still able to DJ our wedding after a change in date.

DJ FILY'S REVIEWS
Allison G. - Essen Entertainment's DJ Fily was awesome. We spoke with him a few days before the wedding to go over everything and he made some great suggestions for some things to do during the reception. We left it up to him to decide what music to play during cocktail hour and dinner and we couldn’t have been happier with his choices. We had a multicultural (Mexican and American) wedding and Fily did an awesome job of playing music that accommodated both sides and he kept the party going all night. I would recommend Essen Entertainment to anyone looking for a high-quality and professional DJ service at an affordable price. I wish I could have another wedding just so I could hire them again
Chelsea Y- Essen Entertainment and DJ Fily were absolutely the best and at a very reasonable rate! Professional, Timely, and Experienced. Thank you Fili for the amazing night. My guests and husband absolutely loved the music and had nothing but good things to say about the night!
Brooke F. - Fily was an amazing MC at my wedding. He has a great voice, is funny, and kept my guests entertained throughout the night. We had several activities that he introduced and he did a great job of sticking to the agenda and working with our coordinator and band on-site as well. He also played a variety of music that we enjoy! He made sure to have all the information he needed from us in terms of music selection before the day of the wedding and was also able to provide me with recommendations if I wasn’t sure. Fily was very helpful throughout the process and I am so happy that I had him as a vendor for my wedding. I would always recommend! Thank you for everything Fily!

DJ LUIS's REVIEWS
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 Luis. 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!!!!
Erica M. - Luis 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 catalogue of music. People did not want the evening to end! If you want the perfect DJ for any of your events, Luis is the man for you!
Catherine F. - Luis 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. Luis 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!
Stephanie T. - We had Luis as our DJ for the wedding and he was great! He made sure that we were dancing the whole night. We had a couple phone calls to make sure I was happy with the playlist. He was your professional. I would highly recommend him!
Olivia B. - We had DJ Luis for our reception and he could not have been more wonderful!! My wedding was the weekend after Harvey hit Houston and he was incontact 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!
Stephanie S. - I just recently had Luis 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! Luis 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! I was very nervous and worried about how to plan the flow of the evening. 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!!
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 Luis 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 Luis. 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 Luis.
Lauren G. - Luis 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 Luis and Essen Entertainment for helping to make our day even better!
Rafael R. - Luis 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 Luis 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 Luis as a DJ for any event.
Chelsea F. - Luis with Essen Entertainment was absolutely amazing and made my wedding so much fun! He got the whole wedding party hyped before our grand entrance and kept the energy going all night long. He kept to our schedule and played the best music! If you want a great dj and photo booth that is at a reasonable cost , you have to go with 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 Luis, 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 Luis. 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 Luis for our wedding and we could not possibly put into words how satisfied and thankful we are for choosing them. Luis 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!

Yolina R - Amazing, the party was a big hit because of the music, the lights & the energy they brought with them. The playlist was exceptional and requests were all entertained. Book Dj RO today! You won’t regret it
DJ CODY
As a classically trained musician who has traveled the United States with a professional, world-renown performing group at the age of 17, saying DJ Cody has a passion for music would be an understatement. While studying Music Performance in college, a new love for DJing was discovered and the rest is history! Now with over 10 years of private event experience, Cody is one of our GO TO performers! Request him today!
DJ CODY's REVIEWS
Randi R. - DJ Cody was AMAZING! We hired him for our wedding from Essen Entertainment and he was so great! When we first talked I told him the “vibe” we wanted for our wedding and told him some genres of music we both liked and he put the entire playlist together! From the pre-ceremony to the ceremony to the cocktail hour and the reception he did it all and got everything and the vibe and music exactly what I was thinking without knowing what I wanted exactly! Thank you so much Cody! I had a few songs for the ceremony and our special dances picked out but he did the rest and it was perfect! He had everyone up and dancing all night long! The pictures were great because everyone was up and on the dance floor even our older family members were out there dancing! It was great everyone had such a blast and is a night we will never forget thanks a lot to DJ Cody! He had the whole place moving and shaking! It was great! He is definitely THE DJ to hire for your wedding… he knows what he’s doing and how to get the whole crowd, every individual, up and having the time of their lives! 5 stars for sure, if you haven’t chosen your DJ yet, or even if you have, switch and get DJ Cody! You will not be disappointed, he truly is so fun and great!
Kimberley C. - The Essen Entertainment team goes above and beyond to make sure you have the perfect evening. They plan thoroughly for each event, making sure that you will be 100% satisfied with the service that you have hired. They are so friendly and easy to work with, making the experience that much more enjoyable. DJ CODY was awesome on th night of and couldn't have asked for more. Do not hesitate to hire them for your event!!
Michael L. - Can't recommend this company enough. We initially wanted to try to save money on our DJ and go with a cheap option but one conversation with JJ flipped our perspectives. The DJ is such a crucial part of the wedding from ceremony to the finish and I did not realize that one bit going into my own wedding. JJ happily talked on the phone with me for over an hour when I was just meeting with DJ vendors. He was personable and very informative. DJ CODY was fantastic. We got tons of compliments on the entire night's music (not just the dancing) from so many of our guests. He also handled MC duties with finesse. It's easy to look back at your wedding and think about what items you think you overspent or underspent on and your regrets about it. We spent more than we initially thought we might for a DJ but wouldn't trade it for the world. Worth every penny and definitely played a huge part in making our night as special as it was
Marcy O. - We were going to have a friend DJ at our wedding and I am so glad we ended up going with Essen Entertainment instead. DJ Cody kept everything running smoothly making announcements and transitioning our songs perfectly. DJ Cody did a great job the entire day and was very friendly and easy to work with

Jennifer R.- DJ Cody with Essen Entertainment was INCREDIBLE for my recent wedding. He kept the party going and had such good vibes the entire time.
