Christian Meneses (alias DJ Menes) is a Bilingual (English/Spanish) DJ/MC and Wedding officiant who was born and raised in NJ by Colombian parents. Before his 17 years of Wedding and private event experience, Christian enjoyed a childhood filled with music from all eras and genres. His passion for the art of playing records came from listening to talented DJs on the radio each and every weekend. Unlike most kids, he would save his lunch money and go to the local record stores to buy the latest single or album out. He continued to collect music during high school and to this day his library boasts over 30,000 unique records.
After high school, he was introduced to a well-respected DJ entertainment company based in Central Jersey. During his years of working at such a company, he learned the ins and outs of the Mobile DJ industry. From equipment setup and maintenance to back office management, Christian had a hands-on learning experience that solidified his passion for the industry.
Christian purchased his first set of turntables during his freshman year of college and soon gained popularity amongst his classmates and fraternities. He developed his sound and began producing his own mixtapes for exposure. His drive and personality allowed him to be tapped to play at the most popular nightlife destinations in Central Jersey & North Jersey. All this was achieved while he attended Kean University and obtained his Bachelors and Masters degrees in Speech Pathology.
In late 2011 Christian along with his childhood friend Fernando co-founded Blanc Noir Event Group an award-winning entertainment company based out of Clifton, NJ. Blanc Noir has since hosted thousands of events all over New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and worldwide. Over the years Christian has connected with many clients through his warm and calm personality. His sense of humor and relentless drive has allowed him to become a highly sought out event professional. His nightclub background as well as his mobile DJ/MC experience allows him to develop a memorable and exciting entertainment experience for all clients.
His passion for music, DJ technology, and the satisfaction he gets from helping people celebrate life is still as strong as the day he first touched a record. Contact him today!
