DJ, Photo Booth & Uplighting – All in One Place!

Hey there! If you’re planning a wedding and want good vibes, fun music, and some unforgettable moments - Fes Hat Entertainment has you covered. I’m DJ Jaafar, and I’ve been DJing weddings for over 8 years all around DC, Maryland, and Virginia.

I do more than just show up and play a playlist—I work with each couple to really understand their style and what kind of music they want on their big day. Everyone’s different, and that’s what makes it fun! I usually ask couples to make a Spotify playlist with their favorite songs, and then I mix that in with songs I know will fit their vibe and keep the party going.

And yes, I’m totally open to taking requests during the wedding (as long as the couple is cool with it!). I want you and your guests to have the best time, so I do everything I can to make sure the music feels personal and just right.

Here’s what we offer:

🎧 DJ Services – All the hits, your favorite songs, and the right mix to keep the dance floor packed.
📸 Photo Booth – A fun setup with props and prints so your guests can take home memories.
🌈 Uplighting – Custom lights to set the mood and match your wedding vibe.
📝 Custom Playlist Planning – We’ll plan together, blend your favorites with mine, and make it feel like you.
⚙️ Setup & Support – We’re there early, get everything ready, and make sure it all runs smooth.

If you're looking for someone who really listens, gets your style, and wants your wedding to feel like you, let’s talk. I’d love to hear about your plans and help create something special!

Awesome DJ

Jafaar did a great job helping us out through the planning stages by giving us song suggestions and running through the timeline for the day. On the wedding day he kept people out on the dance floor by doing a fantastic job mixing music that was fun to dance to. I am glad we had him as our DJ and would highly recommend him as a wedding DJ.

Saved the day

Our original DJ canceled 4 days before our wedding and recommended Jaafar as a replacement. We are beyond thankful that Jaafar immediately reached out and set up a meeting with us. He was so easy to work with, by the time the wedding day arrived we felt we had been working with him the entire time. He executed everything perfectly for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. Our guests stated it was the best cocktail and dinner music they ever experienced at a wedding! Our dance floor was packed before the dance party time of the reception officially began, and stayed packed until the last song. Our guest enjoyed every moment of the dance party and song selection. Jaafar was given little guidance by us in music selection and was able to read the room and play the all the songs that kept people dancing. We will be recommending Jaafar to all our friends and family for weddings and my office for future business events.

Awesome Energy, Great Listener

DJ Wonder (Sean) from Fes Hat Entertainment was awesome at our wedding. My husband and I had particular music tastes and really wanted to showcase our style at the wedding, DJ Wonder went above and beyond to deliver the perfect soundtrack to our day!
He was very communicative and patient leading up to the event and day-of he was flexible and did everything with a smile on his face! Our guests danced the night away thanks to Fes Hat Entertainment!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Jaafar was very professional during the corporate holiday party we worked at together. He was prompt, had professional equipement and played great music. Jaafar made sure that when I took the photos of the toasts that he moved out of the way so that I could get good shots of the person doing the toast. He listened to what the guests requested and made sure that the music he played went with the flow of the evening. I highly recommend Jaafar as a DJ for any events/weddings! You will not be disappointed!
