DJ Craig C

With more than 20 years of experience in music, performance, DJing, and event hosting, Craig brings much more to a wedding than great music—he brings the energy, versatility, and people skills to help make your celebration feel like your own.

That combination of musician, DJ, MC, and performer gives Craig a unique understanding of what makes an event flow. He knows when to let the music take center stage, when to get people onto the dance floor, and when to step up to the microphone and keep the celebration moving.
One of Craig’s most memorable musical experiences was seeing Aerosmith in concert from the front row—with Steven Tyler literally screaming in his face. That experience helped cement his lifelong love of live music and performance.

If you’re looking for a DJ who can read the room, keep the energy going, confidently MC, connect with your guests, and genuinely loves performing, Craig brings years of experience to the job. His background as a musician and performer means he understands that a wedding isn’t simply a playlist—it’s a live event with a constantly changing audience and a once-in-a-lifetime celebration at the center of it.
Craig’s goal is to help create a wedding where the music feels right, the transitions feel natural, your guests know what’s happening, and everyone has a great time celebrating with you.

Testimonials

Heather & Michael – Marriott Northwest – Craig C

Instant Request was SO easy to work with, and their pricing was great! We were assigned to work with DJ Craig , and he did an amazing job. He played all of the songs we requested, along with songs I hadn’t even thought of that got everyone out on the dance floor. We ended the night in a giant circle singing a song. It was the best! Would definitely recommend Instant Request and DJ Craig !!

Ellan & Owen – Residence – Craig C

Instant Request was great! Both my husband and I loved that we were able to completely customize everything online and our DJ Craig did an awesome job! We chose them because we both loved that we were able to completely customize our playlist and their website planner was so easy to use! Before booking, we met with Matt and were so impressed and excited with his enthusiasm. We were assigned our DJ, Craig , three weeks prior to the wedding and were even able to chat before to review all of the details. He was great – we couldn’t have asked for a better DJ experience! So happy we chose to work with Instant Request for our big day!

Sarah & Chris – Greenhaven Country Club – Craig C

We recently used Instant Request for our wedding and couldn't have been happier with our decision. Craig did an amazing job between prior to event correspondence and handling day of preparations everything was great. We had an amazing wedding and if we ever need DJ services again we will be sure to book Instant Request and will ask for Craig for sure.

Heidi & Eric – Links at Northfork – Craig

If I could vote 4.5 stars I would have. We had Craig and everything was great. The only issue we had was some popping feedback during the speech he wasn't able to resolve. Other than that Craig did exactly everything we asked of him. He was very easy to work with and responded quickly to all emails which I appreciated. We also had a second DJ with equipment for the offsite ceremony and once again everything about it was perfect. No technical challenges the volume was perfect. Everything went smoothly. The online planner was a great touch. I wish a few things could be customized but we just communicated those items to Alex and all was good.

Elizabeth & Thomas – Harriet Island Pavilion – Craig C

We'll be leaving reviews but we wanted to let you know how amazing Craig was. He was so great with requests and was flexible and on the ball all night. We got SO many compliments for how well he mixed the ceremony music and everyone said he was great during the reception- the dance floor was well filled all night! Thomas and I LOVED working with him. He made our wedding day so memorable and was so on the ball with small adjustments throughout the night. He worked so well with our photographers and coordinator. He was such a professional and seemed cool and collected- even when we threw a mini karaoke session and dance performance his way. He truly is an amazing DJ and we feel so lucky that he was assigned to our wedding!
