How long has J Christopher Entertainment been in business?
J Christopher has been operating for approximately 20 years. Collectively, our team has handled hundreds of weddings and thousands of karaoke shows.
How do you plan a wedding?
We start with a one-on-one meeting, provide access to our online Wedding Planner, stay available for questions, and meet again a few weeks before the wedding to finalize the details.
Can we choose our own music and do-not-play songs?
Yes. The couple has the final say over the music, and requests and do-not-play selections can be managed in the Wedding Planner. We are happy to offer guidance based on the guests and the atmosphere you want to create.
Do you offer ceremony services?
Yes. Ceremony audio is available, and when needed our ceremony system can be completely battery powered.
Do you carry backup equipment?
Yes. We routinely bring backup microphones, laptops, cables and other critical equipment. In approximately 20 years of events, we have never had an equipment failure prevent us from completing an event, but we still prepare for the unexpected.
Are you insured and do you offer payment plans?
Yes. J Christopher Entertainment is fully insured, accepts multiple methods of payment, and payment plans can be arranged when needed.
What makes your karaoke setup different?
We have produced thousands of karaoke shows and maintain an extensive library that we continue to update. Our typical karaoke setup uses four quality microphones, and some of our venue relationships have lasted more than 10 years.
Do you offer uplighting and cloud dance?
Yes. Uplighting, cloud dance effects, officiants and many other add-ons are available. Our cloud-dance effect uses a Chauvet Nimbus system.
