Look no further, book DJ Washburn!!

I can't even begin to tell you how happy I am that we chose DJ Washburn for our wedding. I don't think people realize just how important a DJ is for your wedding - it can literally make or break the day (and we've seen it happen.) Chris takes the time to genuinely get to know his couples, and I think that made all the difference. He knew us as people and was such a hype man on the day of the wedding. We told him our priority was that the dance floor never be empty and BOY did he deliver! There was literally one song where there was a tiny lull, and he immediately read the room and adjusted and it was a party all night. Even during dinner, he played songs specific to my husband & I (like a remix of the Jaws theme for me and LOTR for him, because since he had Zoomed with us prior he knew we were giant nerds) and we would jam with him from across the room. It was honestly just like having a friend as our DJ. It's been almost a month and we still have people telling us how incredible Chris was (and his assistant too!) No amount of praise is enough - he was perfect!

Perfect in every way!

DJ Devan was absolutely amazing! He was very attentive & responsive right out the gate. He met with us several times to make sure we were comfortable and everything was exavtly how we wanted. He did all the music for our ceremony, & the lighting at the reception made all the difference. Throughout the day and leading up to, he coordinated with the wedding planner and other vendors to ensure everything went smoothly. Checking in with me as well to keep everything on track. Everybody loved the photobooth and the album with all the pictures which was ours to take that night. My dad passed away 2 years ago and I was heartbroken to not have him there on my wedding day. Devan put together a dedication video that he played in place of our dance together and I can't put into words what that meant to me! I will cherish that forever! I have been telling everybody how amazing Devan and Washburn Entertainment were and would recommend them to anybody that wants their day to turn out perfectly! I cannot forget to mention Devan's assistant, Amador. He was great and I know he will be an amazing DJ doing his own weddings and parties soon. Thank you so much for making our day so special and all we dreamed it would be ❤

I may need ACL surgery for the dancing that we did.

Where do I begin. Having a great DJ/MC at your wedding is a fundamental, which I had no idea about. If you want someone playing a Spotify playlist, you’re thinking about things from the wrong frame of reference. From day 1, we knew Devan C. was our guy. He took things step by step, did not overwhelm us with information, and really educated us on the process. I am a particular guy, I love music. Music is important. Devan asked us for a list of 10 songs, I gave him a 155 song playlist. But you have to trust the process. Trust that they know what they are doing, and that they have your best intentions in mind. Minutes before our wedding, Devan pulled me aside and said, this matters to me as much as it matters to you, I don’t want to mess up. And you knew he was genuine about that. Now the intro and the MC portion of it were equal parts classy and fun. He did not make it seem tacky, or forced, or annoying. It was natural, in the moment, and incredible tactful, and we appreciated that because of the mix of people there (your buddies, and also your grandparents).

Now, when the music hit, and you start out with a heater like Mase - Feel so good I had a rubber neck moment because I thought to myself, if this man is starting out with 109 MPH fastball, how is he going to follow that up and keep that energy for the rest of the night? I’m here to tell you, it was the most electric, vibe driven set I’ve ever heard in my life. I’m not exaggerating. Shirts came off, tears were shed, there were movements people’s bodies made I didn’t even know were possible. Any bad energy left from 2 years of a pandemic were gone, instantly. There was a pop-punk mix in that had the room belting at the top of their lungs. No joke, I understand the Beatles mania and the impact of Elvis, because there were visceral tears from how good this set was. This man mixed Spice Girls with Mya’s Case of the Ex. If you’re considering anyone for your wedding, just know, Devan and Washburn are absolutely THE team to help make your day unforgettable. I still don’t have my voice, the friend buzz is palpable, and post 30, I may need ACL surgery for the dancing that we did.
