BEST NIGHT EVER
•Verified review
•Ashley Y.•Aug 16, 2025
We booked Chris (DJ Karizma) after a friend’s recommendation, and he exceeded every expectation. From the start, he was professional, organized, and clearly passionate about what he does. He provided us with great planning tools for music choices and timelines, and we had a call the week of the wedding to fine-tune our vision. On the wedding day, Chris was prompt, prepared, and worked seamlessly with our ceremony musician (the bride’s brother-in-law) to ensure the sound was perfect. We gave Chris song choices for the key moments, a short list of must-plays, and then trusted him to do what he does best—read the room and keep the energy alive. We wanted a party, and he absolutely delivered! The dance floor was packed from start to finish and still going strong when the night ended at 11pm. Our guests couldn’t stop raving: “Your DJ was on it all night!” Chris even went the extra mile by coordinating with the DJ at our after-party venue, so the celebration never missed a beat. DJ Karizma truly crushed it—professional, talented, and fun. We would 100% recommend him for any wedding or special event!

All I can say is HIRE HIM! From our first messages with DJ Karizma, his respect for couples and his absolute passion for music was extremely evident. He sent us worksheets to fill out for both the ceremony and reception. The sheets were very thorough and super helpful as we began thinking of music we wanted. After we submitted our worksheets, we had a call with DJ Karizma. He went through each and every song we requested, he played a tidbit of each one, and we confirmed it was the correct song. Later in the call, he respectfully brought up some concerns regarding what we had envisioned and how it conflicted with some of the logistics. We were so incredibly grateful for this conversation because HE is the professional and he was sharing HIS professional opinions. In the end, we took every single bit of his advice and it turned out EVEN BETTER than we had ever imagined! One the day of our wedding (7/11,) DJ Karizma met each guest and vendor with the utmost respect. His announcements, his music, and his ability to service a room of many generations is impeccable. He kept people of all ages moving and grooving! My nanny (83) was even up and going with Get Low!! Anyone can play music from a list, but DJ Karizma will bring your ideas to life, your crowd on their feet, and a smile to everyone’s face!

I was referred to DJ Karizma’s page and as soon as we spoke, I knew he was the one. He had such good energy and was super easy to talk to. What really sold me was that he’s Caribbean — my husband is Guyanese and I’m Puerto Rican, so we really wanted someone who understood both of our cultures and could bring the music together in a way that felt like us. And he did exactly that! From start to finish, Karizma brought the vibe and made the night unforgettable. He wasn’t just a DJ — he was also an awesome MC. He kept everything flowing smoothly, hyped the crowd when needed, and made sure everyone was having a great time. His energy was amazing the entire night. He mixed the perfect blend of music — we’re talking Reggaeton, Soca, Dancehall, Salsa, R&B, Hip Hop, and so much more. He read the crowd so well and kept everyone dancing all night long, from our parents to our friends and even the kids. We’ve had so many people tell us how fun the wedding was, and honestly, a huge part of that was thanks to him. If you’re looking for someone who really knows music, understands different cultures, and just gets it, DJ Karizma is your guy. We’re so happy we chose him. I’d book him again in a second!

DJ Karizma Entertainment was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From the moment we first reached out, their communication was fast, professional, and super fun. On the day of our wedding, DJ Karizma brought an incredible energy that had our guests dancing all night long - exactly the vibe we were going for. The music selection was on point and their skills behind the turntables were top-notch. I couldn't recommend DJ Karizma enough - they truly made our wedding day a dream come true. If I could give them more than 5 stars, I would in a heartbeat!
