Previous club and radio experience, someone who knows how to work the crowd! We are listed as a TWO TIME, top 3 DJ service in the STL area and voted Best DJ in Springfield, IL area Readers Poll!!! To us, t's about the music and making your event a memorable evening. We want people to tell YOU how much fun they had 10 years, 20 years, even 30 years down the road. Customer satisfaction is our number 1 goal!

Your event is in 'sound' hands with Madhatter Entertainment! We booked Madhatter for our daughter's wedding held on Aug. 29, 2021 and couldn't have been more pleased with hiring this company to DJ the music and announce throughout the evening. From the onset, DJ Chad: - responded to all of our correspondence, quickly and politely. - he was professional, yet laid back and made us and our guests feel very relaxed, providing a 'good time' while keeping the evening on track. - he stuck to OUR song list and added in appropriate songs according to our style of song choice and didn't go off the rails as I've heard nightmare stories of other DJ's doing. - he was comfortable to work with, having great communication/people skills and was open to our suggestions. At all times he put our desires as top priority . I'd say customer satisfaction is primary for this company. - also, the value for your money is over the top! It's very obvious that DJ Chad of Madhatter Entertainment is very enthusiastic and passionate about his work. He delivers a high quality, enjoyable experience for his customers and their guests. You can be confident in Booking Madhatter Entertainment for your next event. I'm so glad we did and you will be also! Donna Hayden

DJ Chad Burton showed up to the venue two hours early for set up and was very open to instant change in music. During down time for him, he even walked around and helped with task he wasn't asked to do, i.e poured champagne.

We had Chad scheduled until 11 but the reception was going so well that he stayed until midnight for us. He knew how to keep our guests entertained and the party going. Highly recommended!

FAQs

How did you get started doing this type of work?
I'm a music lover and have been forever. I like being part of people's big events and making it a great day/night for all parties involved.
What types of customers have you worked with?
Weddings, Proms, School Dances, Holiday Parties, Anniversary and Birthday parties.....really just about any type of event you can imagine a DJ would be great at!
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Ask questions and ask for references from DJs if you aren't comfortable. Get pricing info, but also remember that pricing is NOT everything. DJs should NOT charge you for set up time, tear down time, etc.
