Exceeded expectations

Martin from Active DJ was amazing! None of our guests (all 165 of them) wanted to get off the dance floor! It was packed and we actually had to get on the speaker to tell people where to go next after the reception because no one was leaving the floor LOL. He was a huge part of helping the timeline and event run smoothly. The speeches and dances couldn't have went better ! He was very helpful in the meetings before hand and was quick to answer though email when I had a question. Look no further - Martin from Active is IT!

Yoel was great!

Yoel was an awesome wedding DJ who can do it all. He knows how to tailor as much as you want, but also can be trusted to thrive and vibe with various scenarios. He's the man.

You'd be silly not to book Active DJ Entertainment!

We hired Martin for our wedding on Jan 18, 2025 and we couldn’t be happier with his service. From our first consultation, I told Martin I was looking for a DJ that would match our bright, disco, festival feel wedding day, and he completely understood the assignment.

His set up for our officiant was very loud and clear and everyone was able to hear efficiently. Then to the cocktail hour & reception, he exceeded my expectations. He made recommendations that I would have never thought about, with lighting, the set up, just everything he did was over the top amazing.

We also ended up going with the CO2 machine that wow'd our guests as well as booking a saxophone player that knew the beats to every song we requested.

Martin is extremely professional and truly cares about his couples.

He kept the energy high the entire night and all of our guest gave us so many compliments about him.

If you’re looking for a DJ, I highly recommend Active Entertainment—they truly helped make our wedding day unforgettable!

Thank you again for everything!
