Best DJ around

Joe at Active Entertainment has been amazing! He has taken the time to find out who we are as people to really personalize our day. He has definitely made us feel confident and excited about our big day!

Best DJ and company in Michigan

My wife and I just got married Saturday July 4th and it was a truly amazing day and night which was 100% due to Joe Fila, Active Entertainment and his staff. This company knows how to make a party a party! I cannot say a single bad thing about the services they provided for our special day, we had his Elite package and it was simply amazing. When we were in the planning process Joe walked us through every detail, things we didn’t even think about that thank god he did! We had to make some last minute decisions and adjustments and Joe made sure it was done and not a single person even knew. I can’t recommend this company enough, there is not another DJ company that I would recommend. Worth every single dollar spent which is affordable anyways. 
Joe, thank you for everything! You don’t know how much your appreciated, in my opinion you went above and beyond and we are forever grateful to you. Thank you a million times

Best DJ service ever!

I don’t have the right words to express how absolutely amazing Joe Fila, Active Entertainment and his staff are! Our wedding was just July 4, 2026 it was beautiful, magical and amazing and it was 100% that way because of Joe and his bad ass skills! From the start of planning our day all the way up to the day his communication with us, attention to detail, giving us ideas and pointers we never would have thought of was top notch. There is no other dj in this area I would recommend but this one. His prices are affordable and what he brings to the day makes every dollar well spent. We had the elite package and it was phenomenal! We had a rain issue with our ceremony and last minute had to move and adjust to indoors and besides our guests being soaked you would have never known adjustments at the literal last second had to be made because of joe! During the reception we had an issue with my dress and the bustle that took way too long to deal with and instead of our guests sitting their bored wondering what the heck was going on Joe kept the party going like nothing was wrong in the hallway with my dress. I could write 10 pages of how awesome Joe and his company are but no one has time to read all that so trust me and my husband when we say you won’t be sorry hiring him for any of your events. I will also add that Joe checked on me and my husband more times in the night than my husband and maid of honor did! He just is an amazing man and outstanding at what he does. There wasn’t a dull or boring moment, there wasn’t a person not dancing or having fun. Everyone of our guests complimented on how fun our wedding was and what an awesome DJ we had!
To you Joe, we will forever be thankful and grateful for everything you did for us thru the 6 months of planning right up to the big day. Your truly an amazing DJ but most of all you’re an amazing person!

A Great Vendor Partner!

The DoubleTree has always loved working with Joe and Active Entertainment! They are a preferred vendor for a reason! We know that when couples book with Active Entertainment, they will receive the complete experience. There are so many different packages that are perfect for weddings of all shapes and sizes, and Joe and his team will do their absolute best to keep the guests engaged, dancing, and having the time of their lives on the dancefloor. Joe is very responsive and works so great with our team every time he is here. I highly recommend!

Christmas Party

Dj Joe Fila, put one hell of a show on the our firefighters association party! Management wise, he listen to everything I had instructed him to possibly do and did it well. Even when he was busy, his helper Rob also relayed information as if I was next to him. Great Job, nothing but a 5 star ovation from the Saginaw Township Firefighters Association -

Thanks Joe Fila

Everything I wanted and More

I worked hand and hand with Joe. He was there to give me his advice on things when it came to timelines or logistic of certain things, and it really helped take some stress off of my shoulders. Joe and his crew took the time out of their day the day before the actual wedding to set up early and run our rehearsal. Which again was amazing and really helped me feel better. On the wedding day there was zero things needed. Everything was taken care of the day before and really created a stress-free environment for the day of. Our wedding was amazing. We had a wedding of 125. Mostly filled with older family that didn't stay long after dinner. However, joe still knocked it out of the park with keeping our closest family out on the dance floor. Would highly recommend.

Best dj ever!

Joe was fantastic to work with from start to finish, he had everyone on the dance floor from the beginning of the night until the end of it. He helped everything transtion absolutely flawlessly. He played wonderful music, that fit into exactly what we liked as well as, ensuring our guests that the songs requested were very much able to be played as well. He interacted with our families so well and didnt feel out of place whatsoever. His work in making our special day go as envisioned went off without a hitch. We couldn't recommend him enough and we are so glad, blessed and grateful he is the DJ we went with on our special day.

Wonderful DJ!

Joe went above and beyond what I ever expected from a DJ. From the photo booth (which was so much fun) to the dancefloor (that was packed all night long), I couldn't have been happier. Lost my voice for a week. He stayed after and delivered our book of pictures from the booth and sim card personally to the after party. I didn't realize he captured the speeches and first dances and beyond in video! I was so surprised! My husband's favorite part was he even brought us our first drinks! I would 12/10 recommend to anyone planning a fun event.
