Alright, James has this down to a science. I've never hired or even seen a dj like this. You need a…read moredj, stop looking right now and go with him. So at first we walked into his office you see he has won awards. First thought was he is going to cost a lot. I'll tell you this right now, he was cheaper than the dj I hired 14 years ago. He gives you a timeline and explains everything into great detail. This guy has done thousands of weddings. You see it at the presentation and you can tell when he is doing it at the wedding. So onto the wedding, I don't want to bore you will all the planning details but trust me, it was easy. You'll have no problem with that. He explains everything to you and when he's doing it. Right before dinner we played a game called quest. He usually does it later but people had already been drinking and our ceremony was done sooner due to the weather. Right off the bat, he got people involved and I've never seen so many people cheer there person on. This game was outstanding because now people loved the reception right off the bat and could not wait until what the rest of the night would bring. I just cannot explain what he did for our wedding in words. He gets everyone involved. Dance floor was rocking the entire time. Hell even I attempted to dance and sing. Obviously not good at it. He's got games, there is a timeline that you get and he follows it to a t. If you don't know what song to use at a certain time, he can help you with that. My mom and mother in law have said this was the best dj they have ever seen. I agree. If you think there is better out there, you are wrong. Use him and use him now. P.S. If you use Versace on the floor for the garter toss, he got that idea from us. He said he was going to put it down on his list.

James is awesome! He was there before the time he said to set up and get ready. Due to rain, our…read moreentire venue had to quickly change to inside and he handled it beautifully! From the ceremony to the reception to all the fun games to include our guests down to the very end, James was attentive to everything that was going on. If I could give him 10 out of 5 stars I would! If you don't use James and at your request entertainment, it is your loss!

Tony is EXTREMELY dishonest and has horrible communication. For example, Tony said he is on the…read morevendor list for Trump Tower, Signature 95th, and Lasalle library. I checked all of their websites and/or called for references, and they each never heard of Tony or his company. Tony will also ignore you for days/weeks, even after multiple messages. I highly recommend avoiding this company that is deceptive, lies, and does not respond. RE: Business Owner's Reply- I do not know how you are surprised after ignoring me multiple times when I was ready to move forward with reviewing a contract. You ignored me over 2 weeks and we had a professional relationship. You also gave me 3 Wedding Venues that you said you are "preferred vendor" for, without me asking. I checked all 3 of them and you clearly lied to me. Also, Tony, you response to my review says "some of our reviews tells you that our customers were referred by their venues". This is factually incorrect of your Yelp reviews. I checked all 80 of them. None do. Another lie here.

We originally were scheduled to have our wedding in May of 2021, however, had to postpone due to covid. Tony moved our wedding back to 2022 without any issues or pushback As for our wedding day: Marcia (emcee), DJ Max 10, and the photo booth were great. I would highly recommend them! They accommodated all of our music requests that were initially not in the database by adding them for us. They did an outstanding job with our ceremony music as well!

Backthird Entertainment exceeded my expectations. I reached out to them about a year and a half…read morebefore my wedding. Stephen stayed in touch with me for that entire year and a half, checking in on the planning process and asking how he could help. He even met with me for coffee a few months before the wedding because he wanted to be sure that he understood our vision, music tastes, etc. The dance floor was full all night. So many people came up to me afterward and commented that they had never seen such a creative DJ - his transitions between songs were so fun, and he was flexible and knew how to keep the party going. He also provided all of the sound equipment for the entire day. We played a video during the reception, and even though he wasn't responsible for the equipment, he quickly jumped in when it looked like the sound wasn't working. Honestly, there is no reason to consider using any other DJ. Backthird is the best of the best!

I originally checked out some other DJ companies but, ultimately, wanted a DJ who would provide…read moregood MC services for my reception. I manage events for a living and knew that, if I didn't have someone to do that, I would spend the night worried about the agenda. Nobody needs that on their wedding day. I came across Backthird Entertainment and these guys have weddings down. I filled out an inquiry and Robbie, my account manager, contacted me right away to discuss the details. He had great ideas about the flow of the evening and, after our discussion, he paired us up with DJ Andrew. Their online portal was super easy to use and we had the opportunity to add in all of the special events we wanted during the evening. Andrew was great about helping us coordinate everything, especially since our reception ended up being a bit of a variety show. I appreciated that Andrew and his assistant, Scott, took care of all the details. They showed up early to set up, kept us on schedule throughout the evening, and made sure to play our "must play" songs and other requests at the times requested. Robbie even made sure to follow up with me at various times throughout the process to make sure everything was going well. These guys are great and really care about their customers. They helped make my big day worry free!

He jived and grooved with the music, setting a vibe of "get down on it" and we enjoyed every single song we requested and he put in. We had him do the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception, and he set up and provided EXACTLY timing and songs as requested! Even our guests commented on the music choices and Jim. The gal in the Office, Taylor was sweet and answered the phone and emails all the time. I even physically went into their nice office in St. Charles with a list and payments. Everything was professional and just great!! Great job. Book them!!

We booked DJ Walt through Charizma entertainment for our wedding and he absolutely crushed it! From…read morethe moment guests arrived to the last dance of the night, Walt curated a perfect evening. All of the personal touches he included from our consultation made him feel like a long time friend, and the way he mixed and transitioned from songs showed he is a true professional. The dance floor was never empty. At the end of the night everyone was praising DJ Walt saying "he is the best wedding DJ I have ever seen!" Charizma Entertainment sent us a link to create our perfect timeline, add our songs requests, and to include artists/song on our no play list all in one place. Then before the wedding Walt did a Facetime consultation with us so we could talk through everything. He was patient and made suggestions when we were unsure, making us feel really taken care of. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect thanks to DJ Walt and Charizma Entertainment. We highly recommend everyone book them!

Marz knows what he is doing with every aspect of a party - he is fabulous at working with you to develop the party timeline, and he is a master at creating the energy and environment you want. He is also a pro with logistics. He creates joy for different age groups at the same party and creates a great environment for a purely adult party He has incredible expertise and depth of knowledge regarding music and people. He plans ahead but also reads the room and adjusts the music accordingly. At both parties, Marz had people having a blast on the dance floor. At my adult party, people had a great time dancing and one woman said she and her husband had such a great time dancing that they "felt young again." (They are a very fun couple in their 50s). Marz is also compassionate and kind. He understands and cares about people. I felt cared for and taken care of. Marz is a joy creater. If you want JOY and if you want EASE, he is the person to emcee/DJ your party!
