About Us

Quinceanera

Hello, my name is Ian Bernal. I am a Spanish and English speaking owner and DJ of I.G.B Entertainment specializing in Wedding DJ services. I have been living in Northern Virginia for over 10 years. I grew up in a military household that traveled frequently to places such as South Korea and Germany.  I moved to the United States in the late 1990’s, and later completed my Bachelor of Art degree in Foreign Languages (Spanish and French) and Literature, from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington (UNCW).  While studying at the university, I was able to travel more extensively and to explore the regions of France.  In my travels, I found a passion for learning about different and amazing cultures. Being raised by my wonderful Puerto Rican parents, traveling the world, graduating from the university, and growing as an entrepreneur, have all given me the opportunity to develop into a diverse individual. I find it amusing when people ask me, “Where are you from?”  There is always a little hesitation when I respond . . . . after all, I’ve lived all over!

I began playing music as a hobby in High School, and later my love for music evolved into a colorful career. Over the years, I have learned many “Do’s” and “Do Not’s” from playing at a variety of venues. A few examples range from working at nightclubs and being able to read a crowd, to private events, holiday parties or weddings, that require a specific music format. I aim to please and entertain the crowd; that is what feeds my love for what I do and enables me to continue to grow in my career. The values I have obtained throughout my life have put I.G.B Entertainment in a great position as a trustworthy and professional business. It is because I take pride in my job and sincerely care about your special day, that I have never had a dissatisfied customer.

I, look forward to meeting you, sharing ideas, and preparing for your event. Please contact me for any further questions, and thank you for visiting I.G.B Entertainment!

Exclusively... providing couples with "THEIR SONG."

"I.G.B Entertainment was amazing for us! My wife and I had a great experience working with Ian. From timelines, professionalism and ease to work with everything was perfect. Even when I made a mistake on timing in the itinerary, Ian worked around that. Definitely reassuring in the face of stress and everything turned out more than perfect. Thanks for being patient with me man! Music was on point, phenomenal MC and just a cool/collected presenece. Uplighting and the dry ice were perfect additions to our special night. Can't thank you enough for making our day better than what we could have ever dreamed."

"Ian made sure to ask my wife and I about our "vibe" preferences, but wasn't the stereotypical DJ (who kind've tries too hard). Ian was a great master of ceremonies, without drawing too much attention, and created a great atmosphere off of an admittedly pretty small list of songs my wife and I provided. I am Indian and my wife is not, and Ian mixed Indian music seamlessly in and out with the other pop and dance music we suggested."

"Ian was absolutely amazing to work with. From the initial discussions through the end of the wedding, Ian was professional, responsive, and prompt. Ian went above and beyond with his set up, accommodating to our special need to have two separate ceremonies and the sparkler send off all in different locations. He even did us a favor and brought dry ice for our first dance which made it an unforgettable experience. I would recommend Ian to any and all!"

"My husband and I booked I.G.B Entertainment for our wedding this past May and we couldn’t have been happier! Ian was so awesome and accommodating. I feel like he was the vendor I hadn’t had a chance to talk with a ton before the wedding (that was just because I was busy, he was always very responsive) and somehow he still made our wedding vision happen! He took such care to make sure he knew how to pronounce the names of each person in the wedding party and was just so thoughtful. He kept everything running smoothly and was the perfect Emcee for the evening! Definitely book him for your event, you won’t be disappointed!"

"Ian did a fantastic job DJ’ing our wedding. Everyone was ready to dance after 2 long COVID years, and Ian delivered. He was very attentive to the different vibes we wanted to create throughout the night, and set the different moods just right for cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. The floor was never empty, and while he wasn’t intrusive and didn’t make the party about him, he knew when to get on the mic and hype people up. We would recommend Ian to anyone who wants a DJ who is easy to work with, detail oriented, and responsive to what you are trying to do. Thanks Ian!"
