Such a great DJ!
Eric was our DJ and we absolutely loved him! He keeps in contact all throughout the planning process and makes you very comfortable in knowing that you'll get what you want! We enjoyed him so much that while riding in the car I found myself thinking, "I wish Eric could follow me around and DJ my life". Not even joking! He did an amazing job and you won't want to stop dancing all night!

A Must-Have For Your Wedding!
Entertainment Essentials did such a wonderful job at our wedding. I can't thank Eric and his team enough. Everyone was fun and friendly and on top of things. I am a picky person, but Eric was on top of every one of my requests. Thanks so much!!

Eric did AMAZING! He has planning down to a T, along with very intuitive and tech-forward planning portals that make the process absolutely seamless. He also integrated a lot of great ideas into our wedding that we didn't even think of, such as a TV displaying pictures of us throughout the years and even a 360 cam along the dance floor. He is extremely attentive and responsive, responding to our requests in seconds via text. He made the daunting process of planning wedding music so very easy. He did amazing on the night of as well, showed up early to set up and worked with our other vendors to coordinate our perfect day. The music he played kept the vibe up and he was very accommodating of the many song requests that came in! Plus, he mixes very well and doesn't just play songs on a playlist like some "DJ's" these days! He could not have done better, thanks so much Eric!!!

Ovarian Awareness of KY’s Whisper Walk took place on 9-19-26. We were very fortunate to have Eric Woodland from Entertainment Essentials as our DJ. Working with Eric was seamless. From communication, punctuality, cooperation and friendliness, Eric is a great partner for our event! We would definitely recommend Eric and Entertainment Essentials!
Entertainment Essentials•Sep 22, 2026Kathy, thank you so much for this! It was a pleasure working with you and the O.A.K. team on the Whisper Walk — here's to celebrating 25 years and many more to come. 🩵

Working with Eric and his Entertainment Essentials crew was the best decision for our father-daughter event. His experience was instrumental in optimizing the party's flow, and the photos and videos you shared from past events were incredibly helpful. He for accommodated our special requests for the themed event, including the black lights, the personalized DJ booth, and the specialized song planning. The link and QR code for song requests were easy for guests to use, and we appreciated that their requests were honored. The song transitions were seamless and kept the dance floor packed all night. Entertainment Essentials made this event a huge success, and we plan to use their services again in the future.
