Made our wedding so much fun!

We had Vegas Entertainment DJ our wedding and they were absolutely incredible! From the very start of booking right up until the wedding day, the service was prompt, professional, and so easy to work with. Our DJ Chris checked in with us a few times leading up to the big day to make sure we were happy with the music choices and the order of events - which gave us so much peace of mind. On the day itself, everything went perfectly. They nailed every song cue and transition, and the music was spot on from start to finish. The dance floor was full all night, and we had so many guests tell us how much they loved the music. Chris was friendly, professional, and read the crowd perfectly. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Vegas Entertainment to anyone looking for a fun, seamless, and memorable wedding night!!

Amazing DJ and Events company!!

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our wedding! Michele Hargreaves from Vegas Entertainment created the perfect atmosphere from start to finish. The music was always on point and every song kept the dance floor packed all night long! Michele truly knew how to read the crowd and made sure everyone young and old had the best time.

When our Photo Booth had a little hiccup, the Vegas Entertainment team was immediately on top of it for the reboots and arranged a replacement right away. Their professionalism and quick response made everything run smoothly so we could keep enjoying our celebration without stress.

We can’t thank Michele and the entire team enough for making our big day unforgettable. We also want to give a shoutout to Chris Minor, the owner of Vegas Entertainment, for the easy communications and getting the perfect team together for our special night. We’ll absolutely be recommending Vegas Entertainment to all our friends and family for future events! Absolutely worth it!

Bringing the party to our special day!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Chris for our wedding, and let me tell you—he is amazing! He truly brought the party to our special day and kept the energy going from start to finish. Chris is not only talented at what he does, but he’s also incredibly easy to talk to and super flexible. We had a few last-minute changes, and he accommodated everything seamlessly without a hitch. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how great the music was and how fun the atmosphere felt. If you’re looking for someone who will take your event to the next level, Chris is the DJ you want!

Chris Minor with Vegas Entertainment - Best DJ!

We had the most incredible experience. From the start of the inquiry process to the very end of the night we were very well taken care of. Chris was hilarious, the perfect pick for emcee and he went above and beyond to work around my chaotic and unorganized day. We are very happy with their services and will use them again given the opportunity!

5th Anniversary Party

Chris was absolutely amazing!! He read the room perfectly and kept the vibes high the whole night! Our event had a large age range from 2 to 90 years old, and he was able to cater the music to everyone in attendance! Highly recommend!

Darlene and Marcello's Wedding

We highly recommend Vegas Entertainment. We were lucky enough to meet Chris Minor at a Wedding Show in Airdrie. His personality and enthusiasm stood out and we knew that he was the right DJ for us. We booked with him right away. He reached out right away, he was very knowledgeable, easy to talk too. He listened to what our requirements were and made sure that we were getting the package that we needed. He was very easy to reach when we had questions that we needed answered. He checked in with us right before our Wedding to make sure our Wedding songs were right and to talk about what the process would be for our Ceremony and our dance. We are incredibly happy and excited about how our night went. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed the music Chris played. Anyone out there looking for a DJ, give Chris a call at Vegas Entertainment. You will absolutely be making the right choice.

Fun, easy, and smooth

Vegas Entertainment was very easy to work with. Once we booked their photobooth, it was pretty hands off as one of their employee delivers it, sets it up, then takes it down later in the night. The photobooth itself was easy for guests to play around with. It was a great addition to our wedding night!

Christopher  Minor
Christopher Minor
Owner / DJ

Christopher Minor was born in Los Angeles, California and became a staple of the Southern California rave scene at the age of 17. In his late 20's he moved to Las Vegas where he spent 5 years Djing raves and clubs on the Las Vegas strip!

In the mid-2000's his journey then took him to Canada where he once again immersed himself in the rave scene. Up to this point, he had not once DJ'ed a wedding.

In 2007 he was asked by a girlfriend to Dj her friend's wedding. With no previous experience Chris dove into online playlists, forums, YouTube and anything else he could, to see how a wedding was done. Unfortunatly it wasn't enough. While not a complete trainwreck he understood that his skills were seriously lacking in this department so he joined a mobile DJ company and began doing nothing but weddings!

Chris quickly realized that there was no structure, no training, no protocols, and no best practices within this industry. All that was available was what DJs were willing to pass on to other DJs and no two DJs ever did anything the same way. This is where he got the idea to create a DJ training program, and it worked! Within a few months the revolving door of DJs within the company he worked at stopped. The quality became consistant, the reviews were pouring in and the company became known as the best DJ company in the city. Thus, the "Wedding DJ Handbook" was born.

With great power though, comes great responsibility and the company eventually began engaging in practices and moving in a direction that went against Chris's morals and ethics. No longer convinced that the company could provide the services they were promising clients, he did what most people in that situation would do; he created his own company, a different kind of DJ company.

Vegas Entertainment was built from the ground up based on a foundation of transparency, honesty, and integrity. Within the first year the company reached levels most companies don't see until well into their 5th or 6th year of business. It didn't take long for Chris to realize that it wasn't the programs or processes he had created that made clients and industry professionals want to work with him, it was his passion to the art, the culture and the industry.

Today Vegas Entertainment remains a small business focused on the 3 cores that it was originally founded. Chris insists on only doing a handful of shows a night to ensure quality, attention to detail, and a personal touch is given to each and every client and their event. To date he has not lost a single DJ that joined him when he started and he continues to DJ events personally without charging a single cent extra to do so!

Chris is also an outspoken activist within the industry advocating for DJs to get proper training and experience before attempting to DJ a wedding on their own and to stop the practice of outsourcing events to other DJ companies. Using weddings as training, or overbooking events then getting other companies to cover them are all too common practices within the industry that need to stop. Chris blogs on the website and facebook about all manners of Djing within the wedding industry not just to educate, but to raise the standards of the wedding industry too!
