Chris Washburn was the MVP of our wedding!!!! From the entire planning process (throughout the pandemic) to absolutely killing it at our ceremony and reception. We had multiple virtual meetings with Chris while planning and he was extremely organized and thorough. He helped plan the details of our day even more than our wedding coordinator, and made the process so much less stressful. We knew we made the right choice before we even got to our wedding day. He hadn't been to our venue prior to our wedding and actually went to visit it to have a better idea of the space as well!! When it got to our

Chris and his team were phenomenal at my friend's wedding! Not only did they keep the music going and have a great feel for balancing the program they were engaged and engaging throughout. When DJ Washburn grabs the mike it isn't just to hear himself speak. He's helping to shape and cultivate the mood of the party or reception with just the right touch. It never feels forced or cookie cutter. The same can be said for the staff. Whether it's engaging guests to get on the floor or casually wiping up a spill from an overzealous aunt or uncle the team is involved in the festivities I'm the best sense

My husband and I could not have had the best day of our lives if it was not for Devan and Washburn Entertainment. The night went so smoothly and the music was never dull. It was the perfect build up of music as the night went on. I swear people only left the dance floor for about a second to go to the bathroom and would run back!!
Devan is kind, funny, professional and COMMANDS the room like no one I have ever seen. We planned our wedding for almost two years and they were with us to help the planning process every step of the way! We recommend Washburn entertainment, Chris, and Devan (go D!)

I can’t say enough great things about Chris Washburn and his team!! If you are planning a wedding, he is a must hire! Not only is he an incredible DJ but he truly helps run the show and makes sure the event goes smoothly. He is very professional and helps with all of the planning details in advance. There were so many things I hadn’t thought about for my wedding until we sat down with Chris and started really ironing out the details of the ceremony and reception. He was always so helpful and so much fun to work with! Plus he kept everyone on the dance floor for hours and made our wedding a

I would HIGHLY recommend this DJ company for any weddings or future events. Chris was professional, organized and a pleasure to work with through the whole wedding planning experience. He went above and beyond what I had pictured as a role of a DJ for our wedding. He added extra pictures and videos throughout the reception, which was an added bonus. Our guests couldn’t say enough about the music and entertainment he provided that night. He is worth every single penny! Thanks again!

We were absolutely blown away by Chris and his team at our wedding. Our guests were raving about them during and after the wedding. The range of music was perfect and got our guests of all ages onto the dance floor. People kept telling us that Chris did a great job mixing old hits and new hits together plus different genres. We were very impressed with how well he could read the atmosphere and play music accordingly. There were people out of the dance floor that we never would have thought would be out there dancing and having a good time. Chris was able to make it fun and enjoyable for everyone

HANDS DOWN the best DJ around! I knew of Chris from his volunteer work through some of the non-profit events that we did together. He was simply amazing at each event, and I knew that he would do an exceptional job for our wedding. On our big day, DJ Washburn was early, professional, and a genuine pleasure to work with. There were some last-minute changes before the ceremony started, and he kept it all organized and the whole day went so smoothly!
From everyone at the venue, to the wedding guests, the same question kept popping up.. " Where did you find him?" Everyone was so impressed and amazed

We had the pleasure of celebrating our wedding day with Chris Washburn of Washburn Entertainment this past Thursday! He made our entire experience, from planning to the actual wedding day, easy and fun. Chris was professional, organized, and very helpful whenever we had any questions or requests.
We also decided to utilize his TV set up option (so happy that we did) and he surprised us with a same-day wedding ceremony loop of me and my husband. Thank you for making our day everything that we hoped it'd be and more!

Chris and his team did a phenomenal job at our wedding, and I would very strongly encourage others to consider Washburn Entertainment for their events. Chris was friendly, professional, and organized throughout the entire process. He helped us figure out all the details, including the ones we hadn’t thought about before. He is also an outstanding DJ! We had over 3 hours of dance floor time and we had so much fun that I wish we had gone even longer. Our guests gave us rave reviews about the music, and I couldn’t agree more! Thanks again to Chris and his team for helping us host an unforgettable

I first came across DJ Washburn Entertainment from our venues Instagram account. After looking into them some more I knew I wanted them to DJ our big day! Once we booked I knew I really wanted Chris Washburn to be our wedding day DJ, however he wasn’t available for our date. He suggested another DJ from his team; DJ Tori Vee. At first, I was very hesitant as I had my mind set on Chris but he assured me that we would get along great. He recommended I follow her on Instagram, watch her mixes, and reach out to her and get a feel for her. After all of that I was sure that DJ Tori Vee was our girl
