The absolute best DJ in Chicago! We could not have been happier with Kris and the entire Best Life Entertainment team. Kris consistently checked in with us before our wedding to see if we had questions, song requests, etc. We felt so confident in his ability to ensure our event went smoothly and he did just that! He kept everything running on time and ensured that everything was announced correctly. Our dance floor was packed all night and people could not stop raving about the music. We highly recommended Best Life Entertainment for any future wedding/event needs! Thank you for making our wedding the best night ever :)

Kris is absolutely exceptional. He was a blast to work with and he brings so much energy and positivity. Kris was an absolutely instrumental part to our wedding. As an MC, Kris keeps everything fun but also keeps it moving along so to not get too far behind. As a DJ, Kris has such a phenomenal read of the dancefloor. He is able to continuously spin tracks that keep the floor packed and the party rolling - we don’t think our floor emptied out once! We feel so fortunate we got to work with Kris as he is the best of the best. We feel our experience with Kris lived up to the name - we did live our best life with Best Life!

DJ Kris was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. He worked with us to put together a wonderful and unique playlist that we have gotten a ton of compliments on, and was a fantastic and chill emcee. He got our vibe (bride is a musician with eccentric taste and groom is into more mainstream tunes), and executed it flawlessly. Thank you, DJ Kris!!!!

OUTSTANDING!! Our DJ, Kristian, absolutely crushed it. Our friends and family are still telling us what an excellent job he did, and we cannot recommend him enough. My wife has (by her admission) *eccentric* musical tastes, and he wove it all together seamlessly. Talking to him in the lead-up, and finalizing right before, was a perfectly reassuring experience. Finally, I’ll add that he totally controlled the room — even my rowdy cousins stopped and listened when we has announcing a speaker, a dance, or anything else. Thanks Kristian!!! We’ll never forget it.

Best Life Entertainment was the absolute best investment we made for our wedding. Kris and CJ were a joy to work with. The planning process was organized and clear. They listened extremely well and gave tactful input to help formulate a music plan that matched the vibe we wanted; inclusive of ages and cultures with a few quirky elements to some wedding traditions. They were responsive to last minute changes and attentive to detail. Kris kept the evening moving and guests informed of what to expect with his emceeing, but when it was time to dance, he didn’t insert himself unnecessarily to inject energy in the room, but instead he let the music speak for itself. His ability to read the room was excellent and he made sure the dance floor was always active. Our dance floor was literally splitting apart because he had everyone dancing so hard! And even for the guests who stepped away from the dance floor, they enjoyed how the music was loud enough to be energetic but still low enough to allow conversation. Every detail of the sound experience was fantastic. They even took some video, which was especially valuable since we didn’t hire a videographer. We highly recommend Best Life Entertainment, especially if you have a unique vision for your wedding or are finicky with music.

CJ Paz, or DJ Cj as we called him towards the end of the night, is the best DJ you can ask for! CJ made our wedding guests dance all night! He had the best transitions and the absolute bangerz for our wedding reception! He was thorough with the planning and was very good with communicating. He also has very sound advice on keeping the crowd dancing! My now husband and I danced all night too! Not one bad song the entire night! If you’re looking for a DJ, whether it’s CJ or Kristian, or anyone from the Best Life crew, you can not go wrong with them at all. They are the best! Seriously, just do it! This is my review and my husband is doing one too because that’s how happy we are with our DJ experience! Give it up for DJ Cj!!!!! From the bottom of my (our) heart/s, thank you for making our wedding memorable!

Hi All, Best Life Entertainment was the best DJs we could have hired for mine and my now wife’s wedding. They were accommodating and shared their experience with other weddings with us so we could have a smooth experience. They know how to keep your guests entertained and mix music for all ages and genres.
— Michael M via theKnot.com
Kris and CJ were such a pleasure to work with during our pre wedding planning and a blast to work with on our wedding day! They made our reception perfect and people are still telling us how great they were! People were in the dance floor all night which is exactly what we wanted.
— Tenille R via theKnot.com
CJ & Kristian were awesome! They knew exactly what to play at what time in the night & bring a great energy for your wedding. They are professionals in every thing they do & everything at our wedding went off perfectly. The music for all the dances/music for the ceremony & all of the introductions were done to perfection. I could not recommend Best Life Entertainment enough. CJ and Kristian are not only great at their job but they are a pleasure to work with as well.
— Greg C via TheKnot.com
THE BEST WEDDING DJ!! Kristian from Best Life Entertainment was an amaaaazing DJ. He was super professional and easy to work with, gave us so many good ideas leading up to the wedding, and absolutely rocked the party. Literally nothing bad to say about the guy. Highly highly recommend you consider Best Life if you want a DJ who’s not over the top with antics and really knows how to raise the energy level of the room. It’s also great to support a small business!
— Patrick B via theKnot.com
Planning an event is really stressful. So before planning my events, I was dealing with a slew of unprofessional people. Best Life was the breath of fresh air that I so desperately needed throughout my planning journey. Not only were they really professional but they also put my mind at ease. They worked well with my other vendors and really did their background work on asking all the right questions to help make the day go by seamlessly (guest size, table arrangement, sound checks in all corners of the room, color scheme, name pronunciations of names). The music kept all my guests on their feet. Not only was our event a success, we were so impressed that we have used Best Life for another event, they were that good. They alleviated all the thinkwork and took a weight off my shoulders to allow me to focus on other aspects of my events! I highly recommend their services.

Best Life Entertainment is hands down the BEST addition you can make for your upcoming special day. DJ Kris and Best Life Entertainment go the extra mile with all parts of the event; the planning, music line up, and overall vibe. It’s truly the details they focus on that make them the best for your wedding!
— Garrett G via theKnot.com
We had the best time with Kristian! Planning the reception music can be overwhelming picking the right music to keep the party going all night, but Kristian was there every step of the way and offered recommendations when we needed it. The dance floor was packed the whole night and our guests are still talking about it almost a month later. If you have any reservations about booking Best Life Entertainment - don’t! They are seriously great!
— Abbie M via theknot.com
Best decision we could have made for our wedding day. Kris set the tone for the day and it was perfect. He worked with us to making sure we felt comfortable with timeline and song selections, and went above and beyond to give us what we wanted. We had full confidence going in and he NAILED it. Our dance floor was never empty - truly couldn’t recommend him enough. THE BEST.
— Emily B via TheKnot.com
We had our wedding on 10-9-22 with CJ & Kristian as our DJs. They made our night one to remember as well as made the planning process stress free.

Now more detail: They set up a planning call with us far in advance to gain an understanding of our event and the type of guests we would have. This helped them pick the right type of music to set the vibe specific to our event.

From there we built a Spotify playlist to give them some exact songs they should play. Then they would supplement with their own selections. They also helped build our schedule of events for the reception to cover entrances, cake cutting, toasts, first dances, ect.

We had a final check in meeting to cover the logistics of the event and setup. And the day of the event, they were ready to go. They were also key in keeping the event on schedule and assisted with timing changes that happened during the event.

Overall 10/10. They were a critical part in making our reception a memorable night for everyone in attendance. Many of our guests said it was one of the best, if not THE best wedding they have attended.
— Harrison & Charmie Y via TheKnot.com
We were so amazed at just how much Kristian was able to read and match our vibe all the way from the inquiry phase to the event. He’s had so many of our guests asking about him and Best Life Entertainment. Awesome experience!
— Kevin B via TheKnot.com
I apologize in advance for this lengthy review but everyone needs to know how amazing Best Life Entertainment is. We had attended a wedding where Best Life entertainment was playing and one of our favorite memories from that night was...THE MUSIC and dancing. Fast forward a couple of years later when it came time to pick out a DJ for our own wedding and instantly, Best Life Entertainment came to mind. We had the honor of working with Kristian. From the inquiry phase to our Big Day, Kristian was readily available to speak and answer all of our questions. Early on, he set up a video chat to get to know us, and later in the process, as a team, we outlined what the night would look like. This included ceremony songs, entrance songs, speeches, traditions (ex: money dance), and announcements. I am Mexican and my Husband is Filipino. Creating a vibe where both families were up and dancing was no problem for Kristian. Kristian set up a Spotify playlist to incorporate songs that I wanted to be played during the wedding and he killed it! Our dance floor was always full and Kristian ensured that we stayed on track time-wise and stuck to the plan we had set up in advance. Kristian was also very flexible. We had a mariachi come for a portion of our cocktail hour and Kristian was able to coordinate with them. On the biggest day of my life, I can honestly say that without the help of Best Life Entertainment I don’t think our night would have been as memorable or gone as smooth as it had without their services. Having so much going on on your wedding day is stressful, choose a DJ that will communicate with you, listen to your vision for your night, and exceed your expectations. Choose Best Life Entertainment.

I was BLOWN AWAY by CJ and Kristian. I am a wedding photographer and I have a lot of friends in the wedding industry. This was the hire I was most nervous about but from the first call, I felt like we were in GREAT hands. There are so many things to coordinate and plan (and we forgot to share a couple things we wanted) but CJ and Kristian made me feel at ease and far exceeded our expectations! We promised to “bring the people” and they would “bring the party.” Having Best Life Entertainment at our wedding was one of the best decisions we’ve made. Most companies play songs off a track and fade in and out... this is a whole different experience - hit after hit, seamlessly blended and mixed to keep people dancing the ENTIRE NIGHT!!! Our DJ and food were the biggest compliments we received. I would book again and again. I promise, if you’re reading this and are on the fence... don’t be! This is a great company made up of genuine people with INCREDIBLE talent. Don’t settle for less. I promise, you won’t be disappointed! I just wish we could do it all again!

Best Life Entertainment was a pleasure to work with. Everything was perfect. We specifically asked for DJ Kris and he did an absolutely amazing job with our wedding! He was very responsive, willing to do online meetings with us to discuss our preferences and extremely professional throughout the planning process. He asked questions to get a feel for what vibes we wanted throughout the wedding. He even made mixed songs for me and my bridesmaids for our surprise dance to the groom! DJ Kris also handled the wedding ceremony, cocktail hour and reception introductions with professionalism, and he was also very accommodating with any last-minute song requests/changes. We also had our best friend sing live for our mother/daughter/son dance and DJ Kris made sure he communicated with this person how to handle the mic and timing when to sing-along. His mixed songs were also fire and kept the reception party going all night for everyone. We received a lot of compliments from our guests about DJ Kris. Couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. Thank you so much Best Life Entertainment and DJ Kris and his team for being a part of our special day!

Best Life Entertainment brought the party to our event!! Kris was such a pleasure to work with throughout the process and really went above and beyond to help plan our big day. He had us setup a Spotify playlist to get a feel for our taste in music and then did a great job of reading the vibe throughout the night. The dance floor was full the whole night and all of our friends and family were raving about how great our DJ was. We had several friends reach out and ask for his information to use for their own wedding!

Kris also helped so much beyond just the music. He directed our bridal party entrances, all speeches throughout the night and made sure that we were sticking to our schedule that we had planned together. He also took videos of some of our favorite moments throughout the night, which was so special to see!

We highly recommend Best Life Entertainment for your wedding. Your night will be perfect!
— Tiffany T via TheKnot.com
A DJ can make or break a party—and Kris rocked ours! From day one, he made sure the music reflected how we wanted the night to play out. He had everyone on the dance floor all night long. Would 100% recommend for a wedding of any size—if you want to have a great time and have guests talking about your wedding for weeks after, Kris is your DJ. Book early and enjoy!
— Christine L via TheKnot.com
Best Life Entertainment is HERE FOR the party from day one. Kristian was so thoughtful in guiding the conversation to determine what was most important to us and our guests. He demonstrated positive teaming at every avenue with our vendors and intentionality around clarifying questions to make sure that all aspects of the day were thoroughly planned. THE PARTY WAS LIT - both Kristian and CJ made sure the vibes were well maintained at every point. I highly recommend them. We picked out a large selection of our favorite music (which in my mom’s opinion, was eclectic) but everyone, including my mom, was raving about how the DJ made sure to keep it original and true to us while being relatable and fun for all! I barely left the dance floor.. even ate my late night snack cheeseburger on the dance floor. Before the end of the night Kristian sought me out to make sure that there were no important songs missed (I probably failed to include my requests for last dance) and that quick check in helped me pick the best last songs in the moment and totally surprised my partner who was completely blown away by the moment. Hire these guys for every party!Quote Source

CJ made our wedding celebration so fun and run so smoothly. He was flexible, punctual, great at communication, and more than we could have asked for!
— K W via theknot.com
I cannot say enough great things about hiring Best Life Entertainment as your wedding DJ. We received so many praises about our wedding music as it really spread the decades and was enjoyable for all guests. CJ was a joy to work with, he really listed to our wedding vision and hit absolutely every music queue we asked him too. CJ and his assistance Traye were a pleasure to work with, and we’re flexible with moving equipment and going with the flow. I hope they DJ more events we attend!
— Allison T via theknot
Working with Kris was truly an amazing experience and we couldn’t recommend him more! One of our biggest priorities for the day was making sure that our loved ones had the best time, and we felt that the music and DJ was obviously a huge piece in making that happen - and Kris did not disappoint. Not only did he keep us moving and made sure the day ran smoothly, but he was also SO easy to work with leading up to it. He was extremely organized and professional throughout the entire process. Most importantly, he really listened to our preferences (we are admittedly very particular about our music taste!) while at the same time offering his professional experience and guidance whenever we asked/needed it. You won’t regret working with him!
— Samantha J via theknot.com
Best Life Entertainment really brought us the best life moments for our wedding. The dance floor was energized and fun. Everyone, all ages, was having a great time dancing and jamming out. DJ Kris and his team were so easy and wonderful to work with from day 1! He knows his audience and knows how to get everyone pumped up. Our guests could not stop raving about how much fun they had and the solid song choices. The whole process was seamless and we are so glad we booked Best Life Entertainment!! Thank you for making our wedding night so memorable and enjoyable for all!

Kristian was an absolute dream of a DJ to work with. He truly made our night unforgettable!

Before my wedding in Punta Cana, DR in May 2022, I have experienced Kristian as a DJ at four other weddings I have attended within the past 3 years and each time was amazing.

Kristian is very professional and easy to work with. He goes above and beyond to make sure everyone has a good time because a really good DJ knows how to read the crowd! He is also a great emcee that will make sure he gets his entire wording and pronouncing each name of the bridal party right.

Besides the songs that was a must haves for us, we also told him to do his thing and he did not disappoint. His transitions to each song are impeccable!

With all that being said, it really shows that he really cares and loves what he does! We highly recommend Kristian and Best Life Entertainment for your special event!
— Marikit via theKnot
Best Life was simply amazing! We worked with Kristian for our wedding and he made the process smooth and painless. He guided us along the way, let us pick the songs we wanted to hear and any that we didn’t, and gave us lots of suggestions on how to best make our reception flow smoothly. He hyped up the crowd during introductions and got them going again after our first dance when the dance floor opened to everyone. He played the perfect mix of music to make sure everyone was having a good time and checked in with us throughout to see if there was anything we wanted done to make our night even more special. You always dream that your wedding night will be perfect and Kristian helped us make sure that it was.
— Steve K via theKnot
WOW! We LOVED Kristian! If you want a DJ that will listen to your wants and needs for your special day- he is the one to hire! Kristian is a great communicator! He was available via phone, text, and email! He was so helpful when we had no idea what we wanted for our wedding. He was open-minded and gave us lots of suggestions and advice! In addition, he kept everyone on the dance floor all night long! We loved the music and the most important thing-he kept the music and us -the couple-as the center of it all!
— Adrienne C via theKnot
DJ CJ Paz from Best Life Entertainment absolutely rocked our wedding. I was referred to CJ through a friend who often hires him for weddings and other parties. He’s super easy to work with, knows good music, how to read a crowd and make everyone move. CJ helped us think through wedding details, the music, how it should flow and made it all feel seamless. As an added perk, he even took some great video of the party and sent it to us. Just trust his taste and let him loose to do his thing because he is really talented on the turn tables. Check out his Instagram and you’ll see how he can throw down. Definitely recommend!
— JAMES R via theknot.com
Choosing Best Life Entertainment to DJ our wedding was one of the best decisions for our big day. Our final call over video made the planning process very easy. On the day of our wedding, Kristian and Brian kept the dance floor packed, did a great job catering to each group of our diverse guest list, and absolutely nailed the grand entrance! They also went above and beyond by adding uplights to the backdrop of our sweetheart table. If you are looking to party, we would recommend Best Life Entertainment all day!
— Lorrenz via TheKnot.com
Kristian was awesome. He met with us beforehand on multiple occasions to get an idea of what we had in mind. He showed up early to the reception to test the acoustics thoroughly. He was great on keeping the reception in line and directing speeches, etc. When it came time for the dancing, he killed it. Played a nice mix of what we asked and we even gave him free reigns for the last hour to do his own thing. He had us all dancing the night away. I had many attendees ask who my DJ was and compliment him. Would highly recommend.
— Thomas J via TheKnot
Kristian was fantastic!! He set such a great vibe for our wedding and was incredibly helpful when our pianist was missing a keyboard cord. Prior to the wedding, he sat down with us to help curate a playlist that really fit our two different styles. It truly felt like our unique reception and Kristian was sure to play songs we loved. We hardly ever left the dance floor. We can’t thank him enough for such a wonderful night!
— Leslie H via TheKnot
I’ll start by saying that everyone will enjoy dancing the night away with CJ as your DJ!!

My partner and I recently moved to Chicago, where we were having our one-year anniversary celebration. Our reception was delayed a year due to Covid, so this celebration was highly anticipated. My partner and I planned and re-planned many times and were just ready to celebrate with our loved ones. We quite literally stumbled upon Best Life Entertainment and working with them was one of the best decisions we could have made.

Throughout the planning process, CJ was available to chat with us about what our hope was for the day. Talking to him was always great; he was professional, knowledgeable, and provided guidance when we needed it. On the actual day, CJ was attentive, dressed well, and so kind.

What I will rave about, however, is the music. He delivered exactly what we had hoped for - excellent music mixed and catered to the people gathered to celebrate with us! I’m Latina and my husband is white, so those gathered had different tastes in music. The dance floor was packed from the moment CJ started playing music. It stayed that way through the night! CJ was great in reading the room and keeping the party going. I cannot recommend Best Life Entertainment enough. You will not be disappointed!!
— Krista C via TheKnot
One of the best decisions of our wedding was hiring Best Life Entertainment. From the moment we spoke with CJ, we knew we were in for a good time. CJ is truly an artist who takes a lot of pride in his craft and went above and beyond to make sure that we had the best possible experience. He took the sound set up very seriously for our venue that had a weird echo due to the space. Needless to say - our dance floor was full the entire night because the music was absolutely incredible, by far one of the best DJs I’ve ever heard! Of all of our vendors, we were most excited to work with CJ and hyped him up to all of our friends leading up the wedding, and he delivered well beyond all of our expectations. I would 100% book CJ and Best Life Entertainment in a heartbeat again, it was truly a pleasure to work with him and Kristian, both so professional and made the planning process easy. Trust me - book them!!
— Sydney S
Kristian and Best Life Entertainment did such an amazing job for our wedding. He kept us dancing all night long and all the guests all night kept commenting on what an awesome DJ Kristian was. I will definitely recommend him and best life entertainment to anyone who is getting married I. Chicago for the future.
— Cassandra P
Is there somewhere to put more than 5 stars? Not having a coordinator for our wedding was a huge risk that we took, but despite this our wedding turned out AMAZING thanks to Best Life Entertainment. They were so helpful throughout the entire process and even provided us with various pointers for our wedding, based on their previous experiences. Our dance floor was always packed, people were singing all night and made our night so memorable. I can’t even tell you how many compliments we got from all of our guests, about how amazing Best Life Entertainment was. No one wanted to leave the venue once the night ended! We honestly can’t say enough about this group and can’t wait to recommend them to our friends and family for their future events.
— Elise L
Kristian and CJ did such a great job on our wedding night. We needed specific music styles played and they did just that. They both did a good job mixing the styles throughout the entire night. Kristian also was a huge help to us for the ceremony part. He was kind enough to be there during the rehearsal to help us with the ceremony!
I can’t recommend them enough!
— Ariela S via TheKnot
We had an amazing experience with Best Life Entertainment. Kris was very professional, collaborative, and flexible. He was receptive to our suggestions and expectations for the overall vision we had for our reception. He provided useful tools to guide us in planning the music selection, which made the process smooth and stress-free. He provided high-quality entertainment equipment (sound/lighting) which made our reception experience memorable. We highly recommend this company and will be utilizing its services in future events.
— Rochelle N via TheKnot
DJ Kristian Vistan of Best Life Entertainment made our wedding a night for everyone to remember. He was very professional from the first meeting and patiently worked with us up until the day of the wedding. He checked in on us periodically to make sure we were coming up with the best songs for the big day. He took it upon himself to coordinate the wedding timeline with the other vendors and hotel staff. On the day of the wedding, he also took the time to introduce himself to the immediate family and guests in order to get a feel for the mood of the night. He had the whole venue on their feet as the bridal party made their entrance. The ceremony and reception went very smoothly and as soon as dinner ended, DJ Kristian turned up the celebration to another level. Our guests were a mix of old and young folks but DJ Kristian managed to bring everyone together. His energy was unmatched and the way he interacted with the crowd at the venue made him feel like part of the family. There was no dull moment or an empty dance floor while DJ Kristian was in charge. Overall, the wedding was a blur but we had the time of our lives and we have DJ Kristian and Best Life Entertainment to thank for that. We highly recommend them for weddings and other events if you are looking for a courteous, professional and reliable DJ who will rock your socks off.
— Kathryn L via TheKnot
I cannot recommend Best Life Entertainment highly enough! From our first phone call, we knew that we had found our DJ. We were hesitant to even have a wedding DJ because we have such high standards for music and have seen many bad wedding DJs. All those worries melted away, however, when we found Best Life. DJ Kris let us have as much control over the music as we wanted, and he got every little detail right. Our whole reception flowed seamlessly thanks to him. It was a nonstop dance party, and guests are still raving about the music one month later. I would love to work with Best Life again! Are DJs at baby showers a thing?
— Erika J via TheKnot
We hired DJ Kris for our wedding and oh my gosh, hands down the best decision. He arrived on time, managed set up of audio equipment in three separate locations all by himself, and made sure we nailed down all the details ahead of time so he didn’t have to bother us during first look and bridal party photos. The ceremony music was flawless and reception kicked off smoothly.
Kris managed to keep the night on track and coordinated not only the music, but making sure the toasts started on time, the ceremonial dances got the attention they deserved, and that everyone knew the rest of the dancing was going to take place outside under the stars.
Once we got out there though, it started to drizzle. Rather than letting that change our vision for the night, Kris quickly moved his equipment into a covered area of the barn and was able to keep us dancing all night. We received so many compliments from all of our guests that this was the best wedding music they had heard in so long. Kris kept it fun, universal, and actually spun songs into the next ones like a DJ should. Even the venue loved him so much that they want him to be a preferred vendor!
Kris was the unsung hero of the night and we didn’t even realize it until the very end when everyone had departed and clean up began. Hiring him was the best choice I could’ve made. Thank you so much for everything you did Kris!
— Alyssa H via The Knot
We had DJ Kristian and let me say, he is the bomb. He was super patient with us answering every question we had before we even decided to go with Best Life Entertainment. Throughout the planning process he was quick to communicate with. The day of the wedding we made some changes for the reception and he went above and beyond to make sure that all the details were all taken care of so that things would run smoothly even with the changes. He also just checked in with us during the reception to see if we needed anything. Our guests absolutely loved him too! Many of them told him that they wanted him to DJ their wedding in the future. Kristian made sure to get the guests up and dancing and continue dancing throughout the night. We loved Kristian and Best Life Entertainment and would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a DJ!
— Haeley K
These guys were awesome! From the first time I made contact with them to the planning to the event and beyond they were perfect! Very friendly and easy to work with. They’re low maintenance and do everything they can to work with you and fit your style. I knew within five minutes of talking to them on the phone that they were the right fit. They asked all the right questions and had all the right answers. They coordinated with our contact at our reception site by themselves which was super helpful in terms of day-of planning and setup. On the day of the event they were AWESOME! They picked songs right in line with our direction. An hour in to the event there were more older people on the dance floor than younger ones so the DJ asked if he could play some older songs to get the dancers more into it. This ended up being a great call and once the younger people were ready to dance he perfectly transitioned back to the hip hop music we originally wanted. If you need a DJ please at least give these guys a call. They were a 10/10!!!
— Ben S
Kristian was professional, better than we could have ever anticipated and was very calming on what can turn into a very chaotic and stressful day. He was open to all of our suggestions but still had a game plan of his own. He took what we wanted and turned it into something better than we could have ever imagined. His attention to detail was amazing. He really contributed to making our special day even better than we thought possible. From getting the dance floor going to making each special dance seem like you were the only two people in the room. Kristian and his overall performance was truly second to none. We’ve been in the industry for a long time and he exceeded our expectations. 5 stars isn’t enough!
— Marin M via the knot
Kristian was amazing. He put a ton of work and effort into our big day. He had the whole party dancing all night and had 40 people screaming “one more song” at the end of his set. Highly recommend him for any occasion.
— Andy M via Theknot
We are so pleased with Best Life Entertainment! We hired Kristian for our wedding and he did not disappoint! Our night was a success because of Kristian keeping everyone on the dance floor! We are still getting comments from our guest about how much fun our wedding was. He was also able to please our Polish guests by playing Polish music in between English music. We all danced so much, we can barely walk! Kristian also provided us with hilarious video content he took. Thank you for making our wedding a night to remember!
— Carolyn K via theknot.com
DJ CJ did our wedding and he was fantastic. Our dance floor was packed the entire night. CJ was very aware of the mood of the crowd and adjusted the music to fit the vibe throughout the night. He was also very attentive when it came to executing first dances, wedding party announcements, toasts, etc. Every cue was right on time. All in all a great experience! Don’t hesitate to work with Best Life.

Writing this review about Dj Cj from Best life Entertainment. My Husband and I got married on November 4, 2017. The first time I’ve ever heard Dj Cj spin was back when he use to Dj at Funky Buddha lounge. Funky Buddha was a hip/hop, r&b, 90’s 2000’s club. My Husband and I knew that we wanted a Dj for our wedding that could execute this genre as most of our guests listened to this kind of music. When I spoke w/ Dj Cj on the phone he is very organized, pro active, and attentive to detail. At first I didn’t know what to expect. You just think oh here’s a bunch of music we want you to play and call it a day. Cj took the time to explain what to expect and he walked my husband and I through if we were to book his company for our wedding. Cj had a very detailed spreadsheet to ensure that he is meeting YOUR expectation. My Husband and I had 360+ people at our wedding and Cj ensured he had the best sound equipment to entertain our guest. We ended up booking with Dj Cj and his MC Dj Hammurabi and they did not disappoint. We had a VERY last minute request on the day of our wedding and that was to cut music time for our father/daughter mother/son dance, so our guests could enjoy the dance floor longer and Dj Cj and Dj Hammurabi did just that. I am very pleased as well as our 360+ guests at our wedding. My wedding guests couldn’t stop talking about how great our Dj was. A lot of our guests mentioned that his transition to the next music was “crisp”. Cj did not just “play music” on a computer, but he was actually spinning! Most Dj’s don’t do that anymore and just use a “Playlist”, so I definitely appreciated that. He made sure to take care of EVERYONE and read everyone’s vibes that night. He played oldies music in the beginning for the elderly/middle aged, then turned it into one of the best hip/hop/r&b, 90’s, 2000’s dance floor when the older folks left. Some of the older folks actually stayed because they enjoyed his entertainment. Until this day (I’ve been married for 2 years now) our guests still talk about how great our Dj was and have been asking for his contact information. Would I book this company again? Absolutely! They are very affordable and give you the best quality sound and entertainment. Thanks for making my wedding a bomb ass time Dj Cj of best life entertainment!

I truly believe that music makes the wedding. People will dance if the bride is dancing, but my guests did not stop for 6 hours and did not want him to stop. Kris and Best Life were an integral part of my wedding. It was electric. My vision for my wedding celebration/reception was non-traditional and Kris and Best Life Entertainment made sure that my dream came true. It was a fully executed music experience. The lounge music on the first floor set the swanky tone for the heartfelt ceremony. Then the best disco was played and progressed into some all-time favorite EDM bangers. The after-party late night was my own underground club, truly my dream come true with deep house beats. The transitions from one song to another were top-notch as if you were at a club or festival. Although Kris can do the traditional wedding music, he crushed this challenge and gave my guests a night to remember. EVERYONE danced and I was told over and over and by several people that this was “the best music they have heard at a wedding - ever.” To give you some perspective, my friends frequent festivals more than often and they thought he was hands down the best. At the same time, my mother-in-law’s friends also said, “that was some of the best music I have ever heard.” Kris is beyond easy to work with and a GREAT listener. He listens to what you want, can read the room and KNOWS music.

I’m writing this review for Dj Cj. He was a key player in making our destination wedding an unforgettable experience. Background: My wife and I were adamant on allocating funds for good music. She had known Cj from previous years and listening to him spin at various clubs and venues. We reached out well in advance to make sure he was available on our date and made the decision that we would fly him out to our wedding in the Dominican Republic. We weren’t sure of the Dj’s that our hotel would provide, and we knew if we had Cj in the fold we would be in great shape. We met Cj a few months before our wedding. He got a feel of how we were as a couple and what our expectations of how the music would look like on our wedding day. My wife prefers the poppy, party songs...I’m more-so of 90’s hip-hop and R & B. Not a problem for Cj. From that encounter, I knew he was a true professional and puts a lot of time honing his craft. Fast forward to our destination wedding: Cj made sure to arrive a few days early...just to make sure there was no issues with inclement weather or what have you. He also brought a lot of his own equipment (on the same page of not wanting to rely on the hotel for anything). Added bonus: he got to hang out with us for a few days, besides being a excellent Dj, he’s super down to Earth and is just an outstanding person. Wedding time: he killed the intros and made sure everyone had their walk-in music. He was able to get the exact versions of of our first dance. Then came his Dj set: Put it this way...it wasn’t his intention, but he had the party JUMPIN’ while they were serving food. Our guests just couldn’t help but finding their way to the dance floor. On top of that, it was three hours of non-stop dancing. He just played hit after hit and knew the exact vibe of the crowd. The pictures don’t lie. Extra extra bonus points: the next day, we talked the pool dj’s into letting CJ get on the turntables and he did another 30 minute set. Our wedding party was going bananas. It was the ultimate cherry on top. I highly recommend Cj, he’s a huge reason to why people still talk about our wedding whenever they see us. It’s an investment you will not regret.

DJ CJ of Best Life Entertainment was so awesome in every aspect. Great songs, feel, and timing throughout the entire night. We really loved how he moved the night along and kept everyone on the dance floor. It was important to us to have the right music throughout the evening and he did everything he could to make that happen. He talked with us several time before the wedding to make sure we had everything perfect. I would highly recommend DJ CJ and Best Life Entertainment.

Kristian has been DJing for our non-for-profit corporation, The Ally Project, for the past 3 years. Each year I am reminded how reliable and fun Kris is. Not only does he do an awesome job, he is easy to work with, responsive and timely. Kris is especially great at reading the audience and the whole crowd always enjoys his music. We will continue to use Kris for all of our events!
— Brittany H.
I hired Kristian as The DJ for my kid’s communion. He was extremely nice to work with and responded in a very timely matter. All the guests enjoyed the music and had a wonderful time! Thanks again!! 100% will recommend to family and friends!!!

Kristian was phenomenal! We were running behind on the schedule but he was able to pull everything together smoothly. He’s very flexible, we had sudden changes here and there but you wouldn’t have been able to tell because of him. My husband and I are extremely grateful to have Kristian DJ and MC for our wedding reception, we couldn’t stop talking about him afterwards and neither can our guests! We highly HIGHLY recommend Best Life Ent. for those who are still on the market for a DJ on their wedding night!!

Best Life Entertainment was fabulous! Not only did they play the songs we asked for, but they were also able to customize a playlist that kept our dance floor packed! I would recommend them 100 time over!

Kris made the preparation of meeting with us before the wedding to get to know us and how the wedding detail will be the day of. We asked him what kind of music we liked and selected the perfect ones to get the party grooving. For our ceremony he edited the song that my wife would walk to which she was very happy with, couldn’t have asked a better DJ that night!
— Joseph C via TheKnot.com
Hands down, the easiest choice I made for my wedding. CJ is a pro from planning to execution. My wife and I had numerous conversations with CJ in the months prior to our date. He was patient and helpful as new requests came up, including special ethnic dances and vibes we were going for throughout the night. He was amazing at managing the tempo and pace for the night and left everyone wanting more up until the last minute. Aside from all that - he’s an actual DJ, mixing, scratching, and reading the crowd. Its easy to see that he’s passionate about his craft.

Working with Best Life Entertainment was an absolute pleasure! From our first meeting to our actual wedding day, they were nothing but professional. They listened to what we wanted and also asked us questions that we didn’t think to ask! They’re very thorough and wanted us to have the best time on our wedding day. Our guests were on the dance floor the entire night. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better! Thank you again for being part of our special day and making it a memorable night!

Absolutely the best choice we could have ever made! Kris with Best life entertainment worked with us from the very beginning to the very end and made sure everything we envisioned for our day came to life. The work he put into the details for our day was so thorough. He made sure to know our must haves, dislikes, and even our maybes! He kept us on track throughout the reception and made sure there wasn’t any silence or awkwardness in between speeches. It was also a plus that he is so easy to talk to and work with, he replies to emails in a timely manner, and he even reached out to us throughout our process to see if there was anything else we thought of, needed help with, or wanted to change. The music....oh my goodness the music was so great that I don’t remember seeing a moment where the dance floor was not full or people weren’t singing along. To this day, our friends and family have told us that our wedding was one of the best weddings they have ever been to and a big part of that was because they were able to get everyone on the dance floor and keep them there! We are so glad we chose Best Life Entertainment for our special day. It was seriously the best decision we made. Thanks to Kris, our day was definitely the party we dreamed our day would be.

Working with Kris and Best Life Entertainment was a great experience! Throughout the entire planning process, he communicated with my fiancé and me often. Whenever we had a question or needed music-related suggestions, Kris was very responsive and knew exactly what what we needed. On our wedding night, he did a great job keeping the vibe alive through music selection and His MCing. He made our wedding a night we will never forget and I would highly recommend him!
— Cheryl B via theknot.com
Kristian was the DJ for our wedding. We did an awesome job from the start to finish. I definitely got lots of compliments and i would definitely recommend him over and over again. He kept the dance floor full and alive. Even the old folks were dancing the night away.!!! Cant thank you enough.
— Sherylie J via theknot.com
Probably one of the best DJ’s out there. Highly recommended! Kristian is very flexible. Gave him a really short notice that we needed him to be the MC and he did a great job.

My wife and I felt that the vibe and pacing of our wedding could not have been any more perfect, and a large part of that was due to all the hard work that Kris put in. We made the decision to go with Best Life Entertainment months before the big day, and no time was wasted to start crafting the ideal song lineup and flow; they will stay on top of everything and make sure every necessary detail is captured. Whether you have a very particular musical taste and know exactly the songs you want, or are totally clueless about music but can describe the feel you want, Best Life Entertainment will figure it all out for you! During the wedding, every song choice was perfect for each moment, every transition was smooth and clever, and probably most importantly, the MC’ing was natural and lively. Funny when appropriate, timely and organized and kept everyone’s attention, and was able to adapt to unexpected things. We all wish we make the right choice for a DJ when wedding planning, but Best Life Entertainment exceeded my already high expectations and I would go as far as saying that the Wedding would not have felt the same otherwise.

Kristian is a great DJ and collaborator. We worked together to create a playlist that would accommodate to all age groups. He did an excellent job controlling the flow of the music and the dance floor was always filled with guests. I highly recommend him to you especially if music will play an important role for your wedding.
— Mike M via theknot.com
Kris did a great job. He was very easy to work with and was very professional throughout the whole process. He listened to our ideas and made great recommendations as well. During the wedding itself, he kept the dance floor going all night! Our guest are still bragging how awesome the DJ was. Would highly recommend him to anyone!

Best Life Entertainment was amazing to work with. My Husband was very particular about the vibe and music choices which is not easy to work with and the guys at Best Life Entertainment were so flexible and worked with us closely to curate the playlist of our dreams. We had a Polish -Filipino American wedding and I can’t say enough about how well the music was curated to please all the wedding guests. No one felt left out! Thank you so much for helping us throw the most important party of our lives. You guys were the best!

When planning a wedding, you look for three things: 1. Venue 2. Food/drinks and the best part, 3. The music. We were lucky enough to have Best Life Entertainment be apart of our special day. They met with us early in the process of planning and even gave us a sample of mixes they were going to play during the wedding. On the day of our wedding to the very end of the day, they kept everyone on their feet. If we could have another wedding, we would definitely book them again.
