Absolute Entertainment

Insa was an amazing DJ at our wedding! He took the time to get to know us and was open to all of our song recommendations. He expertly filled in the gaps and kept everyone dancing! We arranged to do an Anniversary Dance and that didn't get played, but overall, a hugely successful night. We'd definitely hire Absolute for another event in the future! More...

We had a wonderful experience with Peter as our wedding DJ. He was so kind and so talented. He was really careful to include everything we wanted and genuinely cared about our experience. Our guests adored him also and our wedding party spent a while just having conversations with him as we all cleaned up post-reception. Tons of fun. More...

Everyone at our wedding had a great time and enjoyed all of the music Ken selected during our wedding. We had a few song selections that were must plays, but other than that, we gave him freedom to set the tempo for the reception and were not disappointed! All of these details were discussed during our pre-wedding meeting with him, where he helped us with some great advice on the schedule for the big day too! He did a great job feeling the room and judging the song selections, keeping everyone well entertained. An added bonus, he is also a pretty great photographer and got a few special shots during the wedding, when most DJs would have probably just stood around until it was time to do their job. He went above and beyond in our expectations! Thank you so much Ken! More...

We had a fantastic experience with Absolute Entertainment. The lights we got added the perfect amount of atmosphere. Our DJ was so on board with our unusual theme he brought in his own decorations. He also made us a mix tape of some of our big songs. He made our big day so much better and I can’t recommend them enough. More...

Gordon Thorn of Absolute Entertainment was the DJ for my graduation party. I became a Doctor and I wanted to celebrate my accomplishment in a big way with my family and friends. Gordon gave me a demo of his skills and abilities at the Absolute Entertainment's studio. He did a fantastic job of mixing music and picking songs that were to my liking. In that moment, I had a great time and I knew that my guests would have a great time, as well. Gordon was a complete professional and managed the process with finesse. I was already very emotional because my accomplishment of earning my Doctoral degree was a dream come true and I could hardly control my excitement. However, Gordon was calm and put my mind at ease with his high quality level of professionalism and attention to the details of my event. Gordon contacted me for a 2nd meeting 30 days in advance of my graduation party to go over my list of song selections. During this meeting, Gordon advised me of the expectations for the day of my event and advised me that he would take his queues from me. I was very pleased that we would have that kind of connection during my event. On the day of my party, Gordon arrived early to set up his equipment. He performed his DJ duties just as he discussed with me from the first song for my entrance to songs played at meal time, to keeping my guests on the dance floor as we partied throughout the evening. Gordon was always on point and did an outstanding job of managing the evening's music selections. He is a fantastic DJ and I believe that he is the best that I have ever encountered. Gordon made my party absolutely memorable. To Gordon, thank you so much for such a great time and for turning my party into a special occasion that my guests will remember for a lifetime. I only wish that I had another event planned so that I could invite you back as our DJ. You are the go-to DJ for us! More...

DJ Cedric is absolutely amazing at what he does! He is well known in the DMV dance community so we knew from the start that we wanted him to dj at our wedding. What we didn't know is how attentive to detail he is and how seriously he takes his job. Cedric took complete care of us and gave us a peace of mind with our wedding reception - he met with us long in advance, listened to all of our preferences, helped us clarify what we wanted the reception to be like, and stayed in constant contact with us when we made changes. Even on the morning of the wedding when I had a new idea of playing tribute to the 70s and 80s music icons Cedric happily made adjustments for us!

During the party the guests kept telling us how great the music was and how much fun everyone was having. We had a diverse crowd and Cedric made sure to play something for everybody. The dancing kept going until the place closed and I danced so much that by the end of the night my feet almost fell off lol. The energy in the room was through the roof!

Anyway, Cedric exceeded all of our expectations. His professionalism, his passion for what he does, and his talent to set the dance floor on fire are a rare find. We will always be grateful to Cedric for making our wedding reception such a great memory. Thank you Cedric! More...

We were fortunate to find our DJ and photographer in the same place. We were able to work with Ken and he was right with us especially with our music choices from start to finish. I didn’t even get to change into my reception dress because we literally stayed on the dance floor from the first song until the last. We have never been so exhausted! He breezed through our playlist and all anyone could talk about was how much fun our wedding was. He helped me surprise my new husband with a special song and the music helped make our perfect day even more perfect. Our pictures were gorgeous too. Our wedding day was rained out but they made the absolute best of it and captured some beautiful photos. Terry was our other photographer and he was a doll and a joy to work with. I’m a happy bride!

DJ Cedric was fabolous!!! Everyone loved our wedding playlist and he was so flexible, kind and sweet throughout the entire process. He kept reminding me that this was my day and I could have any songs that I wanted. He was so flexbile as we gave him Hindi songs that he did not originally have on his playlist, and he incorporated Hindi, Salsa, american pop, rock and hip hop seamlessly. Everyone was dancing from all age groups until the very end. In addition, DJ Cedric also provided us with one on one salsa lessons so that we could master our first dance to La Vida es un Carnaval song by Celia Cruz. Absolute Entertaiment and DJ Cedric were able to exceed our expectations, all, while keeping us under our modest budget. We are so grateful for helping us to make our wedding a true success. I would highly recommend DJ Cedric for your wedding or next party!!! More...

Cedric and Absolute Entertainment were wonderful. We got so many compliments at our wedding about how fun Cedric was and what great music he played. Everyone was dancing the whole night!

My only complaint is the selfie station - it did not come with any props and was incredibly slow with processing. I thankfully had brought some of my own supplies for props so we did have something, but none of the stuff we were told we would have.
You couldn't see yourself before taking the picture so it was a surprise as to how it would turn out and you had to wait 3 minutes after each picture to see it and send it and then take a new one. I also thought it would print out 2 copies of each photo - it didn't print out any. You can only text it to yourself, so I won't be able to see any photos my guests took at the wedding. If I could do it over I would not have the selfie station at all - complete waste of a lot of money. It would be better to go with a legitimate photo booth.

Overall, DJ Cedric was great and made it a great party! The selfie station was a total disappointment. More...

All DJs are not created equally. Ken Roshon does not simply play songs. Ken is an artist and a creator. Ken crafts moods, moments, and memories that last a lifetime. Ken worked with us to create the perfect scheme for our day and then expertly controlled the flow of our ceremony and reception to help bring about the magic moments we will truly always remember. YOUR big day deserves nothing less. Don't hesitate...contact Ken early in your process. You don't want to miss out on this guy and I'm sure he books up fast! More...

Definitely book this company!!! We had so many compliments on our DJ. We hired Gordon who did a demo for us at the studio. He was fantastic. Not only did he keep our wishes for not allowing risque musical requests. But he also included both of our varied musical tastes in his playlist. By varied I mean house, gogo, pop, hip hop, classic R&B and even country. He was very responsive to emails and was our savior when we had to move to an indoor site for the ceremony due to weather and he was able to provide a PA and microphone for our officiant.

Let me start off by saying these words: Excellence in Customer Service, Talented, Professional, Attention to details, Understanding of our needs, Generous Hospitality, Compassionate and Quality of Services.

On July 13, 2017, my fiancée and I finally got married after 6.5 years and this day was the best day of our lives together. Gordon from Absolute Entertainment made things possible that we thought otherwise was impossible. He provided a service that most cannot. He was able to read the crowd and made sure the dance floor was constantly packed with our guests having the time of their life! We provided a dedicated list of musics for our DJ Gordon to play but not all music was played. But then again, we gave him clear instructions to play whatever songs he needs to make our guest dance. We are extremely happy that he took it upon himself to play songs to entertain our entire guests. DJ Gordon made the impossible possible and we are extremely happy and pleased with the end result. Thanks for being patient with us during our initial meeting before the event. My wife made lots of adjustments with the play list because she's a perfectionist. Thanks for guiding us throughout the process and making our wedding day memorable. We are extremely happy with your talented staff. My wife and I wish your company much success and prosperity. Your personality was amazing to work with. More...
