Hypest Events, in Thousand Oaks, California, is a high–energy DJ company built around one simple goal: keep your dance floor packed and your wedding night stress-free. Founded by DJ Hypest (Max Karpel), we’ve brought the party to over 120 weddings and countless special events, turning big moments into memories people can’t stop talking about. DJ Hypest has played at Burning Man, Avalon, Catch One, and Lost Lands, and knows how to bring the festival energy to your wedding!
From the first email to the last song of the night, we make everything easy. We show up early, come fully prepared, dressed to impress, and handle all the details behind the scenes so you can be fully present with your guests. We make sure to fully coordinate with all vendors and event coordinators to make sure the event runs smoothly! Our couples trust us to read the room, keep the vibes just right, and know exactly when to drop that one song that gets everyone on their feet—yes, even the relatives who “never dance.”
We don’t just play music—we curate a full experience, from ceremony to grand entrance, first dance, and late-night bangers. We handle the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing during the ceremony!
With Hypest Events, you’re not just booking a DJ.
You’re locking in:
• A fully packed dance floor from start to finish
• Customized playlists that match your vibe and must-play list
• Pro sound, wireless mics for toasts and speeches, and smooth announcements
• Club-style mixing with EDM, hip hop, Top 40, throwbacks, and remixes
• Optional lighting and photo booth add-ons to take your party next level
We’ve got your entire day covered from start to finish—ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and reception. For the ceremony, we provide clean, professional sound so your vows, officiant, and special songs are crystal clear for every guest. During cocktail hour, we create a laid-back vibe with curated background music that sets the tone without overpowering conversation. For dinner, we keep things smooth and upscale with a playlist that matches your style and builds the energy as the night goes on. Once it’s time for the reception and open dance floor, we flip the switch—reading the crowd in real time, mixing your favorite tracks with proven dance floor anthems, and keeping the party going non-stop so your guests never want the night to end.
