Ultimate Occasions provided entertainment for my son’s wedding. Chris’s team knocked it out of the park, so professional, fun and easy to work with. The entire experience from contract to executing the event went smoothly. DJ Freddie was personable, worked with our Cello player for a special first dance, and then kept the music going and created the best vibes throughout the evening and added all our special music as discussed. Chase ran our photo station and made sure guests had a great experience capturing memories for the event. We added the Gobo for the event which I think could have appeared better, it was a little hard to read because the lighting and backdrop weren’t ideal, but otherwise we were very happy and I highly recommend this company if you are in need of DJ and entertainment services. Thank you Chris, DJ Freddie and Chase for helping us celebrate a wonderful wedding reception.

Chris was great! He made sure to arrive early and set up before our wedding. All the music was great and he had perfect timing in regard to when music was supposed to be played for certain events. He was also great at reading the crowd and keeping everyone dancing.

Chris was the DJ for my wedding on 5/1/22 and he did an amazing job! It was easy to work with him: he was prompt and responsive to all my texts and questions, made the process of selecting songs easy (through the app), and had great energy. Everyone loved the music and had a great time. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants a high energy and professional DJ at their event!

We had Dj Chris Dj my Sororities formal and everyone loved it! He really made the event come to life. He was very professional and very flexible. He really understood the vibe we were going for and fed off the energy of the crowd. He also has an app that everyone can go and request songs on before and during the event. I know the girls in my sorority appreciated that because it just made everyone so much easier. Highly Recommend DJ Chris Yates!
