Truly the ultimate DJ + Emcee!

DJ Dean checked off all the boxes we were looking for and more! Highly recommend him for dual DJ + Emcee services, everything was super smooth with him from as early as wedding planning process to the special day itself. Dean did his best to not just present himself as a DJ + emcee, but also to carefully plan out the agenda of the wedding, working closely with our coordinator to have a detailed timeline with specific songs (and even timeframes for some songs) playing exactly as my wife and I had envisioned them to play.

When it came time for reception fun and games, we let Dean have creative liberty over how he would like to keep the crowd engaged during dinnertime, and all of his suggestions and implementations were a hoot! We could really rest at east and enjoy the night's events knowing Dean had it all smoothly handled, and our guests had a blast with every activity.

So honored to have had Dean at our wedding!

The most fun DJ!

If you want to have a DJ who creates an engaging and fun atmosphere with your guests - look no further. Dean is absolutely the guy! We found him through our venue and are so thankful we could book him! He is thorough, organized, and makes sure that every detail is accurate. He also makes the evening FUN! Our guests continually talk about how much fun they had, and how much they enjoyed interacting with one another. My fiancé and I when first meeting with Dean also came to learn a family my family is acquainted with hired Dean for mot one, not two, but THREE weddings (three daughters). If that doesn’t tell you how amazing he was I don’t know what will. DJ’a have a huge impact on the vibe of the night and Dean always gets the vibe right, promise!!

You will not regret Dean!

Dean's awesomeness is beyond words! He went through my wedding timeline multiple times. He pays attention to every detail and even checked on us if we wanted more drinks. He adjusted his lights to match my theme. I enjoyed and love working with Dean. I will put my new name on this guy! Thank you for making our day astounding. We love you Dean!

Dean is amazing

DJ Dean is absolutely amazing. From the start, he was so prepared, organized, on top of EVERYTHING, and ensured that our wedding was going to be fun and engaging. Dean constantly communicated with us to ensure that our needs/wants were being met. Our biggest thing was that we wanted our guests to have fun, and Dj Dean brought that and more. Our guests still talk about how much fun they had our wedding and how the Dj was amazing. He has games/icebreakers really engaged the guests and while we were taking photos after dinner, we came back to everyone laughing, all guest tables participating, a little competition was occurring, and everyone having so much fun. Let him do his thing with all his icebreakers, games, and fun activities he has up his sleeve, you won't regret it at all. We also went with Dean for our photo-booth, which was everything and more. He personalized our photo strip, the backdrop, and our guests were able to get more than just 1 copy of the photos. If you're planning on getting married, Ultimate Events is the way to go. You will not regret it, and your guests will never forget how amazing your wedding was! We got married in October 2022, and people are still talking about how much fun they had from Dj Dean.

Dean is the best....

Dean was absolutely amazing to work with and he made my wedding day very special. If you are looking for a DJ, I recommend his services. He is very upbeat and he will motivate your guests to dance! He also has a great team that mans the photo booth.

Great DJ, 100# Recommend.

We could not have found a better choice for our event. My husband and I married on September 1st and our guests are still complimenting Dean! He is a trivia game master that plays song requests, leads games and ice-breakers, and even comes with line dancing instructions! Our guests had a great time and were thoroughly entertained. B & G didn't have to stress about music or flow, Dean coordinated flawlessly.

Entertaining and Knowledgeable DJ!

I went to my friend's wedding last summer and Dean was their DJ. He was so entertaining and I was laughing so hard my stomach hurt! He had so many creative games and the music was awesome. Now that my fiancé and I are getting married, we've chosen him to be our DJ! :)

The best decision of your wedding is hiring this dj

I was the maid of honor for my best friend and super involved in the planning process. When I first met Dean, it was in a meeting at his office to go over details and I had no idea just how many details he would cover -- everything from pronouncing the wedding party names right, song timing, to the exact dance and atmosphere lighting the couple wanted. He was so incredibly thorough with the timing of the whole day and was truly the coordinator of the event in my eyes. He made sure the ceremony music and reception music was exactly what they wanted, that the timing of the evening went exactly according to plan, and made this backyard wedding feel so professionally planned and executed. He even had notes and pointers for the officiant, who was a friend so he didn't have experience. That alone was a life saver.
The wedding guests LOVED him for his energy, games and icebreakers, and his humor. After making sure all the parts of the reception went according to plan, he spent the rest of the night taking our song requests -- which we had many -- and giving us a lot of time for tons of dancing!
I had no idea how much work went into being a DJ and MC for a wedding until witnessing all the work that Dean did. The bride, groom, and myself as the maid of honor are all SO grateful for Ultimate Events and for Dean--for making the day so special and taking great care and pride in their work. THANK YOU!

Highly recommend!! Made our wedding AMAZING!

My now husband, Marc, and I just got married last weekend at The Hacienda in Santa Ana and we had the privilege of having Dean as our DJ and MC. To say we are over the moon about how our day went is an understatement. There were ALWAYS people on the dance floor which is not something I can say for a lot of weddings I have been to. He took guest song requests and really read the room well to keep people energized and dancing!

Marc and I are not overly cheesy people so when Dean first brought up the idea of little games during the reception, we were skeptical. After talking with him about our concerns, he was able to completely tailor his ideas to fit our style and we wouldn’t have had our wedding any other way!

I know this review is long but I really want to do them justice, so last thing! After going back and forth on whether we wanted a photo booth we ultimately decided we did want one and wow, I’m so glad we did! The attendant who was there (sorry I didn’t catch his name!) was so great and enthusiastic, every time I walked past there were always people there! Everyone had such a good time!

If ultimate events is available for your wedding/event, book them ASAP! They go above and beyond to make your event the absolute best it can be. You won’t be sorry!!

Awesome Experience

I used Ultimate Events for my 50th Birthday Party. Right from the start, Dean understood and appreciated my party theme and vision. He prepared well to make my vision become a reality. My party was everything I'd hoped it would be and Dean was a huge part of it. Everybody at the party commented on what a great job he did! It was a magical night I'll never forget. Thanks Dean.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
