Ryan aka Hipnotik was the only DJ we looked into for our wedding, and there is no other DJ that was a better fit for us! Communication was simple and easy. He provided a very detailed wedding planning guide that we completed. A couple weeks out from our date we had a FaceTime with Ryan where we went over the guide together and he throughly went over all the details and any questions we had. During the meeting he played songs that were apart of our day that he may have been unfamiliar with, and made sure any name pronunciation was correct. These details matter, he made us feel like we were his priority and our satisfaction was his number one goal. This FaceTime meeting left us feeling confident and that we knew we would be taken care of and VERY PUMPED for our wedding. The day of the wedding the energy he brought by just his presence and great attitude set the tone for the reception. His ability to read the room and artistry of mixing songs kept guests dancing all night to the point where nobody boarded the first shuttle back to our hotel. If you are looking for a fun and upbeat hell of a party, you need to have Ryan Hipnotik and City of Stars Entertainment!

Where to start!? You were AMAZING AT OUR WEDDING! We had so much fun and there was so much energy. Over the past 8 months, you have become family to Vince Cunningham and I. You were able to meet our family and friends when we brought them to your DJ spots and seeing us at our house twice for logistics was completely unexpected and so sweet of you. You really made the process easy! You are hilarious and really understand your role! Fast forward to the day of the wedding, our guests LOVED YOU! You played R&B, hip hop and pop! It was a great mixture of songs. But in all honesty, Vince and I wanted our party to TURN UP and you did not disappoint!!!!!
Everyone is still talking about you and how great the music and vibe was. We know that we couldn’t have had our ‘epic wedding’ without your music, lights and MC’ing! We love you so much for making our day special!

I am so thankful that we contacted Ryan for our Wedding. He and his crew are everything we could have asked for and more! Not only did they play great music (everyone was on the dance floor...even my son and his great-grandmother), but he took the time before the wedding day to get down the itinerary...he even was able to improvise when things would deviate from the schedule, as things always do. With everything going on, it was such a relief that Ryan was on top of everything and really helped make the wedding an ultimate success!

DJ Hipnotik is the G.O.A.T.! After seeing him put on a show at our friend’s wedding last summer, we knew that we needed to have him at our wedding. We approached him at the end of the night and booked him on the spot! That’s how impressed we were with his work.
Ryan has a serious talent for reading and manipulating a crowd. He is very musically inclined and is very good at transitioning from song to song. I am far from the dancing type and DJ Hipnotik had me struggling to resist. He knows how to make sure everyone has a great time and that the dance floor is never empty.
He is also very easy to work with through the planning process and was efficient in our meetings and phone calls. He was able to get a feel for our musical inclination in under 5 minutes of playing music for us in his studio. He is a very talented DJ!
We certainly recommend City of Stars Entertainment, LLC for any of your events. If you want to have a great party, book DJ Hipnotik now! Thanks again Ryan for the awesome job that you did on our special evening.

My husband Alex and I used Ryan as our DJ for our August 18th wedding. He was absolutely amazing. He is so friendly and really loves what he does. It’s so refreshing to work with and be around someone who is so genuinely happy! Our music for our ceremony was amazing. Ryan really plays to his audience. Earlier in the evening he played more old school music, for the older crowd, but once they started to leave he started to play new, trending music to keep up with the younger crowd! It was nice to have a variety of music as well. We were so happy with our reception! Ryan really got our guests excited for all of wedding events! We had so many people ask us about him and wanting to book him for their events! We would recommend Ryan for any event and will definitely be using him again!

I HIGHLY recommend Ryan Ballard as a dj for any event! My husband and I used him for our wedding and he truly made our day so special. He is professional, passionate and dedicated to making the experience exactly what you want for your big day. His enthusiasm shines through in and outside of the dj booth with his energetic personality that can get any party started. If you are looking for a dj who cares about you and will go above and beyond, Ryan is the man for you!
