The music was the perfect mix, and he kept the energy high from beginning to end. Our dance floor was full all evening, and my husband and I were out there almost the entire reception. The best compliment has been hearing from our guests--even weeks after the wedding--that the music was one of their favorite parts of the night. Simon did an amazing job reading the crowd and creating a fun, unforgettable celebration. We would recommend him to any couple looking for a DJ who knows how to throw an incredible party!

We cannot express enough how amazing DJ Simon was! Although we definitely put him to work with our…read morePolish music playlist, he absolutely nailed it! All of my Polish family had the best time even our friends who don't speak a word of Polish were out on the dance floor loving every song. His transitions between Polish hits and American wedding favorites were seamless, keeping the energy high and the dance floor packed the entire night. Simon played for five straight hours without a single dull moment -- not one song had an empty dance floor! He also perfectly handled our Polish traditional toasts after the ceremony and did such a great job pronouncing the Polish words -- it meant so much to our family. Our ceremony music was flawless, especially my groom's walk-in song! Simon timed it perfectly, and it truly gave us chills. We first loved him when he DJed our friends' wedding, and we feel so lucky to have had him for ours. Thank you, Simon, for making our wedding day unforgettable. You brought our vision to life and made the night one giant celebration of love, culture, and fun. Highly, highly recommend!!!

We had an excellent experience with Sean at CSE. From the first moment I reached out to him, I knew…read morethis was the right fit! Planning a wedding from Texas in NJ is not easy, but he was very responsive to every email and the few phone conversations we had. Since we had a Friday morning brunch wedding, he was also able to work with our budget and really make it happen for us. Once we booked with CSE Sean also sent us a username and password to our personalized online music planner. It was nice being able to put all the details of who was who, and pick what songs we wanted to be played. Also, the week of the wedding, Sean touched based, went over everything with us too which was much appreciated! Since we had a small wedding, I know it was difficult to get the party pumped up ( a Friday brunch wedding is also a little difficult). But, he played many of the songs we requested and others that were really perfectly along the lines of our wedding day feel- think Michael Buble. It was really nice because it didn't feel like just another wedding with a cheesy DJ. Sean also worked with my sister to orchestrate "the shoe game" I had wanted in the middle of our reception which was a lot of fun! Lots of laughs! Perfect touch. Thank you Sean for being so organized and knowing our venue. It made the day a lot more enjoyable for us. Highly recommend CSE!

We hired Kris to DJ our local wedding reception in August 2016. I found By Design Entertainment…read morelisted on theknot.com (the only useful thing on that website). From the very beginning, Kris was very accommodating and easy to get in touch with. We chose the most basic package - he also offers special lighting and a photo booth. He arrived early to set up before the reception and played all of the music that I had requested. He did a great job getting the crowd together and "loosened up" with a napkin game which was pretty hilarious to watch. I highly recommend Kris and By Design Entertainment for any event.

The Best... I've been to countless weddings over the years…read moreand when it was time to put together my wedding we knew that the DJ was not only important, in a lot of ways the DJ is the center of the entertainment, controls the energy and the mood in the room. We started our search by reading all of the reviews online through multiple websites and then starting pricing it out. Design Entertainment by Kris Szanto came out on top. Of course the review doesn't just end there... Kris was extremely accommodating and was easy to work with, which as many of you know, if you do not already, wedding planning is extremely stressful so working with Kris was a breathe of fresh air. We got married June 27, 2015 at Eagle Ridge Gold Club in Lakewood, NJ. During the wedding everything went off so smoothly we could not have been happier with Kris and his crew. He immediately set the mood and for a group that I thought would never get out on the dance floor, the floor was full within the first 10 mins... Talk about a guy who knows what he is doing, Kris is not a one trick pony... Not only were we happy with Kris we received so many compliments from our guests. There are plenty of options out there but if you want the best I recommend Kris and his crew with By Design Entertainment without question... If you have any additional questions or concerns about By Design Entertainment I would happy to answer them... John Nesgoda (John.Nesgoda@gmail.com)

From the moment guests arrived, the casino-style setup created an exciting and elegant atmosphere that kept everyone entertained throughout the event! The tables were professionally designed, visually impressive, and incredible well organized. The blackjack, money wheel, poker and roulette tables gave our guests an authentic casino experience while still being approachable and fun for beginners. Everyone-from first-time players to experienced card enthusiasts-had a fantastic time participating. The staff was amazing. Dylan was essential in making sure that we had the correct configuration for my event. He also gave me recommendations on how to get the most donations. They made setup and breakdown smooth and efficient, which made the entire event stress-free for our organizing team. The experience brought energy, interaction and excitement to the fundraiser and helped encourage guest participation all night long. We received countless compliments from attendees about how much fun they had and the gaming tables truly helped make our event feel memorable and upscale.

I hired Vic from Royal Entertainment initially only for their casino tables. I almost hired a different casino table company. Once I saw pictures of these LED lit casino tables, I knew I needed them for my party. If you see from the photos, the LED lights adds an layer of pizzazz that you don't get from regular tables. Everyone was wowed by these tables and it was definitely one of the highlights of the night. Then I hired Vic and Mickey for the lighting for my event. If you have a limited budget, splurge on the lighting. It is highly transformative. He and his team went above and beyond what they were hired for. They were able to create the exact lighting and ambiance for my casino party. Then they were able to quickly break every casino table down in literally 10-15 minutes for my surprise wedding. All decorations and lighting also needed to be changed during the casino table break down. Not a glitch took place. He also made recommendations such as a fog machine for our first "dance on the cloud", which I highly recommend. This was the same fog machine which I ended up using to create my river for wedding entrance (#crazyrichasians). Want an extra crazy touch, also rent the cold fountain sparklers. It does not hurt when touched nor cause anything to burn, so can be used indoors. This made amazing photos during the wedding and various performances. Vic also works with you with on pricing and is very fair. He even came out to check out the venue prior to the event to make sure we got everything we needed. Highly recommend. Had absolutely no regrets!
