Wonderful!

We hired Encore Entertainment for DJ, MC, videography, photography, and the photo booth. We could not be happier with the service we received on all fronts. Mark had every single person at the wedding on the dance floor. Everybody raved about how good he was. Many people told us it was the best wedding they ever been to.

Best time ever

Encore Entertainment was the best part of our wedding. They were professional and met our expectations, everyone at our wedding complimented our emcee skills to keep the energy going within the party. The photographer made us feel special and took every picture we wanted. The videographer was courteous and was professional. The photo booth was extremely fun. Mark and his team are worth every penny.

Amazing Job!

Mark and his team were wonderful to work with from start to finish. His initial presentation and attentiveness were second to none. He really tuned in to us to make sure he understood what we wanted our wedding day to be. From the music selections to the amount of interaction we wanted. We were and still are amazed at how he was able to get EVERYONE engaged and on the dance floor! His vast experience clearly came into play as he read the room perfectly. Watching the videos and the sheer joy everyone felt still makes us happy and grateful that we chose Mark and his team. It's an event we are sure our guests will never forget!

Excellent Service at the last minute

About 2 months before my wedding, I suddenly realized that I'll need wall wash and spot lights since the venue doesn't have those included in the pricing and it definitely NEEDS those things.
I contacted several vendors, and Encore/Ultrax (Mark Klatskin) was the most responsive and knowledgeable. He recommended me to add the water vapor cloud and the photo booth, and put together a package for me that made sense financially.
While this was the last vendor I chose, Mark and his photo booth attendants (2) made such a major difference on the look of the venue and the vibe of the first dance, and warmly helped the guests with the photo booth. I think they were the second best vendor of the night (the best being our photo/video vendor).
The photo booth also took videos of guests saying congratulations. I was given a copy of each strip, as well as a flash drive with all videos and photos. I had the photo booth for the entire time (1 hr cocktail hour + 4 hr reception). Looking back, I think 2-3 hour at the end of the reception is more than enough. However, this is because our venue's cocktail area is very small (Valley Brook in Blackwood, NJ). The venue would not allow us to move the photo booth into the the reception hall where there was ample space since we have about 125 people for a seated dinner. So, if you have a lot of space at your venue, it would definitely make sense to get them for the cocktail hour as well. For Valley Brook, we need double the amount of space at that cocktail area for everyone to be comfortable.
And you'll also want to get the phot booth until the very end of the night because that's when you, your husband and other family members would finally have time to take photos with each other.
BTW when they come out to do the cloud, they are willing to do it a couple of times so your guests can enjoy stepping on the cloud, too, which was nice. I wish I had more of my guests coming out to the dance floor and the cloud.
My dress was pushing all the water vapor away, so if you have a lot of twirls and pick-ups in your first dance like we did, your picture can look a little sparse. You can't help it, it's water vapor, it will drift away with wind. Even so, some pics came out great. Just something to note. If your dance is just swaying back and forth, then you'll be fine.

Birthday celebration

"I wanted to take the time to say the Photo Booth was a hit yesterday! Everyone loved it so much. It was the perfect special touch to my husband's surprise 30th Birthday Celebration. He was beyond happy with the way it all turned out. Viktoria was an absolute pleasure and made sure everyone was interactive and had a great time using the booth! I will be highly recommending you guys to everyone I know."
Thank you again!

Professional, Fun, Experts

We had an incredible experience with Encore. We used them for 2 photographers, 1 videographer, a photo booth (with attendant), a DJ, and the MC. I cannot stress enough how much easier it was to get all of those services from one vendor instead of trying to manage each of those independently. Each service that was provided was great and our reception was made SO much better because of how amazing the MC (Brandon) was. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Definitely use Encore for your event. You will not regret it.

Great service at a reasonable price

We used on Encore Entertainment as the officiant for our wedding. They also provided the DJ, announcer, video, photographer, and photo booth services. The price was reasonable, and they were very easy to work with. They are reachable by email or phone and are very responsive to communications. All of the provided services were very high quality, and they provided a flawless wedding experience. People were still dancing right up to the point where the venue turned up the lights. The photo booth was enjoyed by all. The photographer and videographer were very responsive to individual requests for pictures and video. I would not hesitate to recommend this company if you are planning a wedding of any size.

Exceptional!

The encore team was absolutely amazing! We used encore for every aspect of our wedding. Considering we had to move our wedding 3 times due to Covid, the team was beyond helpful and accommodating to all of our needs. They really went above and beyond. Our MC Brandon was amazing! He got the entire room dancing and partying! Our guests are still talking about how great the party was!

Easiest decision you'll make for your wedding day!

Encore Entertainment & Ultrax Disc Jockeys was a life saver! They provided services to fit all of our entertainment, photography, videography, and officiating needs. Not to mention touches like uplighting, photobooth and props, and "dancing in the clouds". Mark and his team were extremely professional, punctual, and always available to answer any questions... and quickly! Our day wouldn't have been possible without them!

Covid wedding made great

Mark and his team were fantastic! They made our event lively while ensuring all of our guests felt safe and had a great time, even while social distancing. The process of preparing for our wedding was made so simple with Mark’s availability as well as with the website he used to input all of our preferences. Thanks for helping to make our day so special!

Awesome service, great people

Mark and Branden worked with us through the tough planning this year, tailored the event to exactly what we wanted and needed, and the result was awesome! We had so much fun. DJ Flip kept the pace of the event and the library of song options was amazing-they played the exact versions of the songs we wanted for our entrances. Mark also married us and his choice of ceremony words could not have been more perfect.

Wonderful from start to finish

We were marrying off our first daughter and tensions were high. We wanted everything to be perfect. From our first meeting with Mark from Encore Entertainment & Ultrex Disc Jockeys, we knew we had the right people for all our wedding needs. From start to beautiful finish, they nailed it! Mark & co. guided us through the whole process with cheerful smile and a seamless professionalism. We couldn’t be happier with the final results. We cannot thank the folks @ Encore Entertainment & Ultrex Disc Jockeys enough for all they did to make our daughters wedding day a perfect day.

you NEED these guys!

"My husband and I saw Brandon and Flip at a friend's wedding the April before ours. We left that wedding vowing to hire those two as our DJ and Master of Ceremonies for our big day. The energy, excitement, and their ability to get EVERYONE, and I mean EVERYONE up and dancing is incredible. The music is arguably the most important big ticket item at your wedding (other than the whole sanctity of marriage, of course) and with Brandon and Flip you can't go wrong. The amount of dancing we did was insane. The songs just glided into one another seamlessly which made the dance floor full ALL NIGHT LONG. Thank You Brandon & Flip!” Gina & Zach’s Wedding At Bast Brothers

Best Vendor Team Ever!

Where to even begin! Encore Entertainment was the best decision I could have made for my wedding day! They made the planning process as stress-free as possible. From my initial meeting with Mark, to the end of my reception, they were so professional and attentive. I used Encore Entertainment for my DJ, MC, Photography and Photobooth, and they did not disappoint!
My photographer, Joelle was so creative and fun! She really listened to me about the style of photos I wanted, and she kept the morning of my wedding so organized and efficient! She was even willing to take pictures down at the floating docks with us in the rain- such a trooper!!!
My DJ was amazing and played all the music I asked for. Even more importantly, he did NOT play the songs I asked him NOT to play!!! My MC was Brandon. Brandon was absolutely, hands-down, the reason my reception was such a hit! He had EVERY SINGLE ONE OF MY GUESTS on the dancefloor. It was truly something special. He was professional and considerate throughout the whole planning process and really paid attention to the flow of the evening.
The photobooth was such an amazing addition to my wedding night! Viktoria was simply amazing and flexible with me to add in my own logo at the bottom of the photo strips.
I would recommend EVERYONE to use Encore Entertainment for any and all events in the future!

Fantastic!

We hired Encore Entertainment for our son’s wedding and cannot say enough good things about their services. We used their Emcee, DJ, and photographer. Mark was an AMAZING emcee; he was full of energy and had everyone up and dancing all night. He was right in the middle of the action engaging constantly with our guests. Our photographer, Steve, was amazing as well. He took so many fabulous pictures throughout the day. The entire organization is extremely professional, easy to work with, and was responsive to all of our questions. Mark told us from the beginning that he knew how to make our son’s wedding day special and alleviate all the stress from us. He did exactly that and we had the time of our lives!!! I HIGHLY recommend Encore Entertainment!!!

Fantastic Experience

I got married in October of 2019, and my wife and I were very pleased with Encore Entertainment. We hired a photographer, DJ, and emcee. The photographer was very flexible with our busy schedules the day of the wedding and was able to get some very beautiful photos. He also got some killer photos on the dance floor throughout the duration of the reception. The DJ was great in playing a wide variety of music that catered to everyone's interest. Mark, our emcee, was absolutely amazing. He was able to get EVERYONE up out of their seats dancing by incorporating a variety of fun dancing games. I was approached by several guests that complimented the abilities of our emcee. I was also told by many guests that this was the best wedding reception that they have ever attended. I highly recommend this company for your event.

Perfect from start to finish

We hired Encore/Ultrax for photography, photo booth, and DJ and emcee services, and everything was simply perfect! Below are our highlights:
-Viktoria's exceptional customer service from booking through the big day. We never waited more than a few hours for a return email answering any question we had.
-The professionalism and kindness we experienced from our photographers, Jason and Evelyn. They were so good at taking candid shots, we forgot they were there, at times! There are so many gorgeous shots I didn't even know they had gotten, which was a great surprise when I saw my photos. They did such a wonderful job and we are so happy with our photos. They were so kind and they made us feel at ease, which made me feel so much more natural in front of the camera (which I usually don't!), so they pictures were even better than I had hoped for.
-Our emcee, Brandon, was incredible, and we could not have been happier! The process of choosing our music was simple and efficient, and he gave us input that made our evening really special (such as doing an anniversary dance). He had everyone on the dance floor all night and played music that got everyone involved. There wasn't a dull moment. I received SO many compliments on him. (I also loved that our photo booth operator gave us an album and he and Brandon danced with the guests, it added to the fun!) Brandon even checked in with individual guests to make sure they were having a good time. Talk about a great emcee! I can't say enough about the DJ and emcee services.
-Everyone was so professional and knew just what to do to make us feel like we were getting a personalized experience while understanding that on the big day, the bride and groom don't have a whole lot of time to answer questions! They knew exactly what we wanted and they delivered! It was also extremely efficient being able to hire photographers, photo booths, and DJ services from the same company.

I would recommend this company in a heartbeat.

They did an amazing job at our wedding! Photography, videography, and dj service were outstanding. So easy to work with and listened to our ideas. Whether I spoke with Mark or someone else from the staff - our questions were always answered. Everyone was up on the dance floor having a great time.

Nothing Less Than PERFECT!!!

The team at Encore Entertainment – simply put were superb. Through Encore Entertainment, we’ve gotten Photographer (1), Videographer (3) (Cinematography Package), DJ, and Officiant. Admittedly, I was skeptical of how great they could possibly be – being a same-sex male interracial couple – I considered the following concerns: the music would have to be diverse, light exposure difficulties capturing our skin tones, and my stubborn family members who would just sit down and not move. Needless to say, the day of our wedding, WE WERE BLOWN AWAY!!!!
My wedding was the best day of my life – and NOTHING went wrong. Literally NOTHING. Encore Entertainment was Perfection. While me and my husband loved everything, they’ve done – we were shocked to hear how many of my guests were actually impressed with them. My family constantly commented on how fun the photographer was. The videographers got many kudos for how discreet and detailed they were. Of course, EVERYONE in my family were most impressed with Mark. He’s truly gifted in the way he got everyone on their feet. Mark was delicate without being overbearing but had great presence which made the crowd just enjoy him 100%. Encore Entertainment made our special day a dream come true. They’ve shown patience, commitment, and passion. By no means were they interested in just “getting it over with”. It was a true collaborative effort and they went above and beyond. Thank you to EVERYONE with Encore Entertainment.

On a October 31st 2015 my beautiful wife and we’re married, it truly was a day to remember, And Encore Entertainment made it possible.

Encore Entertainment collectively made our wedding a more memorable experience than we could of imagined!!

From the beginning Mark Klatskin and his team were very clear and concise about the processes involved in coordinating as many services as we required and made each one very easy to accomplish using web based systems(such as their Dj and Event Planners) along with constantly being available for our needs. Not only were we in contact with Mark, his team also contacted us individually to discuss details we would never have thought about taking into account to make our day just that much more amazing. On the day of our event the photographers(Steve and Chris)and our videographer(Dennis)were with us from 10 am until our final dance. Our DJ (DJ Flip) and our MC (Eric)showed their abilities to read a room and kept the energy high when needed and gave us the spotlight during our formalities. Having a photo booth proved to be a hit with everyone in attendance. Our operator (Viki) was very attentive to all of our guests making sure they left video messages, took photos home with them and informed them of the many other features of the booth like the ability to text, Email and upload photos to Facebook. All in all Encore Entertainment exceeded all of our expectations and would highly recommend them. If you’re looking for any entertainment services of any kind look no further.

Highly Recommended!

“We want to thank everyone who helped make our wedding date special and memorable. From the beginning to end it was such a smooth transaction. Encore entertainment, one source for all really made it easy in booking our DJ, Photographer, and Photo Booth. Brandon and DJ Flip hyped up the crown, facilitated the wedding in accordance with the schedule. DJ Flip played a clip in sync with my husband’s speech that was not pre-planned and made the speech even better. That just shows the skills he has as a DJ. Brandon showed professionalism from coordinating to executing, really made the party hyped and fun as he had promised. Our photographer Steve gave really good suggestions for poses and went by the schedule as planned. I know everyone enjoyed the Photo Booth and the photo album made by Justin was amazing. Our friends had highly recommended Brandon and DJ Flip, we can now say the same. We wish you all more success and will defiantly recommend you to everyone. Thank You all for your hard work in making our day spectacular.”

A Fantastic Experience From Start to Finish

Working with Mark and his team was an absolute pleasure. They made everything incredibly easy and answered every single one of the dozens of questions we had along the way.

We couldn't put a price on having Mark there to run the show and not having to worry about a thing during our reception. His team was incredibly professional, the photographers and video crew showed up early, everything was set to go at our reception with the photo booth and entertainment setup, and Mark MC'd the entire event from start to finish. All of Mark's team knew each other and had worked together before, and it showed as the night couldn't have gone more smoothly.

Every one of our guests had an absolute blast. Mark and his team made our Wedding Night one we won't ever forget!

Our wedding was in January and it couldn't have gone any better thanks to Encore! They provided our photography, videography,photobooth, and Mark was also our Officient for the ceremony! They truly made us feel like family and truly went out of there way to make it the best day ever. Every single person at our wedding said it was the most fun they have had in a long time. There was the perfect balance of intimacy and fun. I would recommend Encore to anybody who is looking for an amazing wedding or party! The photographer and videographer did an amazing job! And most of the time we didn't even know they were there.

Mark and his crew were absolutely phenomenal! From day one he was so easy to work with and really made the planning process so much easier for us. Our wedding was two weeks ago and we are still getting compliments on how great the music was! They played everything we wanted and went above and beyond our expectations. Our photographer Steve was also amazing, he captured every moment perfectly, and our pictures are beautiful! We are beyond greatful!

Our wedding this past weekend was AMAZING! Honestly there aren't enough words to express my happiness and gratitude for the team for making Saturday everything I have ever dreamed of! Every person I spoke to told me how perfect everything was... So many guests told us how great our emcee Brandon was, and how they just felt like he was an old friend! (My best friend also said she wishes she could fire the DJ they hired and hire Encore!!!)

The dance floor was packed all night, the music was perfect, the lighting was amazing, everyone thought our monogram projected on the floor was super cool! The pros from each 'department' individually reached out to me ahead of the wedding to go over some final details, I truly felt like all of my wants and needs were taken care of and I couldn't have asked for a better team!

Our photographer, Jason was great! He actually arrived early to start photos while I was still getting my makeup done, and he & Evelyn made us feel so comfortable all day! They gave us great ideas for photos. He made us feel very comfortable and I didn't even notice him half the night! Evelyn was there the whole time making sure our photos were going to be perfect. Mitch our videographer was there to capture every moment of the day! Oh! And of course Justin at the Photobooth was great! I love our album with everyone's photos and it was so great to see everyone having a great time! The Turkey Hat at The Photobooth was a huge hit! Encore Entertainment ran like a well-oiled machine!

We used Encore Entertainment for our wedding on Saturday, May 5. We arranged everything with Mark and filled out the required forms online. We had a photographer, videographer, MC, DJ, and photo booth. He worked with our budget without a problem. Everything went smoothly! The photographer was with us the entire day and was excellent. The videographer met us at the church. Everyone had a blast with the photo booth at the reception. And we received LOTS of complements on the MC and DJ. A friend is getting married next year and asked for your information. Highly recommend their services. I can't wait to see our pictures and video!

Mark and his team were beyond wonderful for my daughter’s wedding (Summer ‘17) I met with them ahead of time because the bride & groom live in Florida and they helped ease the nerves of all of us for things to go smoothly. They listened to every detail we said from the ceremony to the cocktail hour through to the last song played. We didn’t want the night to end! Kim Badessa -Mother of the Bride

I just wanted to let you know that your team was FANTASTIC at my wedding on April 7th! I can’t even begin to say enough great things like I mean literally everything was amazing! Brandon and the DJ were incredible! We had so many people asking for their name and a couple people said they won’t get married unless they are there! They had everyone dancing even people I never would have expected!

Dennis and Steven were also fantastic and it was clear that they clearly loved their jobs! For having never met them I was instantly comfortable! Even the lighting and photo booth guy were so nice and helpful!
They truly made my wedding amazing and I am so glad they were there with us! They were just as happy and excited as we were and I do not know how we would have done it without them.

Seriously I cannot say enough amazing things! Thank you thank you thank you and thank you again!!!!!

Mark and his team are absolutely amazing. I actually did event planning in college and have worked with many, many DJs. He and his team is by far one of the best. They did a great job working with us on the schedule and song selections, giving us great advice and options. During the reception, they were energetic enough to break the ice and get people involved without being cheesy.

We did the MC with the DJ. We did the entire wedding ourselves and hosted at my wife's parents house. Because we had the MC I wasn't left having to coordinate anything. Mark was able to walk over and gather the bridal party from pictures and line everyone up and prep them, cue the DJ to start the music while he was there to cue the entrance to the reception. He was able to walk around and find the caterer and photographer when they were ready to start dinner, or dances, or cake cutting. While I'm sure a single DJ would be able to coordinate with the other vendors and keep to the flow of events, I'm not sure how any single DJ would be able to do all the wrangling that is necessary to completely run the event.

Mark got people moving and eventually got them onto the dance floor. We have gotten multiple people come up to us or my Mother in law and say how amazing of a DJ we had, that they don't typically dance at weddings but they were moving and grooving at ours.

As far as communication, Mark was always a phone call away walking through our plan then answering any questions we had. He met all the vendors that showed up before I even got to introduce them and when I spoke with our photographer and caterer they both told me don't worry we are working directly with Mark.

I guess in the end I would say I have complete confidence that Encore Entertainment will make your wedding day magical and help you every step of the way in the planning.

Everyone associated with Encore that my wife and I worked with was great and the end result was a super fun time for us and our guests at our reception. Though we only utilized Encore's DJ services, we would absolutely recommend all their services based on the care and professionalism they exhibited. Huge thanks to Brandon, Mark and DJ Flip!

We recently hired Encore Entertainment for our wedding in early June and were extremely happy with our choice. Being a military couple, we did not have the chance to meet with the team before hand or select music, but it didn't matter. The crew was able to easily adapt to the atmosphere and attitude of our guests and fun was had by all. The DJ (Henry) & Emcee (Brandon) ensured EVERY SINGLE PERSON made it to the dance floor including all the grandparents and young ones. They truly had a talent for getting everyone involved without being forceful or awkward. So many memories from the big day were created with their oversight, assistance, and professionalism. 100% would use again and recommend for any event. Thanks ENCORE!

Encore Entertainment was our first choice for our wedding needs and we booked all 3 services- DJ, Photo and Video. All of our guests loved the photo booth and we will cherish these photos for a lifetime. Everything was perfect on our wedding day (5/27/2017). The DJ was AMAZING! All of our guests raved about the music and loved the atmosphere. Mark and his team made planning our wedding as smooth as possible. We are so glad we booked Encore Entertainment and would highly recommend them.

My husband and I got married in July of 2012. We were thrilled with the service provided by Encore Entertainment. Recently, I went to look through our pictures and the CD would not load them all. I thought I'd never get them back. We contacted Encore Entertainment and they still had them! They were able to easily send them to us digitally. When they say they keep the pictures they are being honest. Thank you Encore Entertainment for saving all our wonderful memories from our wedding day!!

Encore did an AMAZING job at our September 9th wedding. Luis and Eric were perfect. They kept the crowd moving the entire night. We are still getting compliments on the music selection and mix up. The online planning tools allowed us to have a say in what was going to be played and we loved that! Eric had a great personality and everyone just loved him. I would recommend Encore for any type of event, they are reliable, organized and friendly!

Mark and the staff were absolutely professional and cordial from the first phone call. There is incredible value in the services and packages they offer. We were teamed up with Jason & Evelyn as our photographers and we couldn't be happier! They were professional, but fun at the same time and you can tell they love what they do! We also were teamed up with Dennis as our videographer and he did a tremendous job. He was easy to work with and very easy going. Mark took the job of being our MC and it was fantastic. He and the DJ got the entire wedding up on their feet dancing and we've NEVER seen that before, and we've been to a lot of weddings. We would recommend their packages to anyone for any occasion. It's a one stop shop and well worth it!

Encore Entertainment is a very fun, energetic, and professional company. Despite personal situations involving his family, Mark was still able to maintain his professionalism and his commitment to our wedding. He voiced to us how much he loves his job and what it means to him, and that was what he showed us. During our wedding he was very energetic without being overbearing as some MCs might come off as. He got all of our guests moving on the dance floor, which was an amazing sight to see! We still to this day are being told by our guests how much fun they had! Thank you Encore Entertainment for making our wedding so much fun!

I recently booked Encore Entertainment for my and my fiance's wedding. And oh my gosh, are we excited to work with them!! Mark Klatskin, the president of the company, met with us personally and was just so nice. He has such a laid back and warm personality that makes him a joy to work with for our wedding. And his photographs are amazing, the best we have seen. Encore Entertainment also even had the best prices, so we were able to afford a photography booth as well. And they are willing to work with us for the entire day, documenting my getting ready and my fiance's getting ready, so there won't be any feeling of being rushed during pictures during the cocktail hour. They were very flexible with the fact my fiance and I did not want to see each other before the actual ceremony- some places were very pushy about doing the pictures all beforehand. We are just really excited to work with them.

“The entire night was one big happy memory! The professionalism of the staff and the ability to understand the client made working with Encore Entertainment easy and an excellent value. The videos are wonderful. Excellent job! I must tell you that everyone really liked the video, they were impressed and it even had my mother in tears (tears of joy). The special effects were just right and not tacky or dated. I especially like the recap at the end of the video and then the lead into the honeymoon. Thanks Again.” - Lisa and Richard Freeman’s Wedding Reception, At One Atlantic

“I want to thank you again for the marvelous entertainment provided by you and your team at my wedding last Friday (5/22/15) at the Washington Crossing Inn! The ceremony music was perfect--I loved how we interjected "Since You've Asked" in the middle of the ceremony. And you certainly got everyone up and dancing at the reception. Many guests complimented your work! Thanks, also for keeping us on schedule as each portion of the wedding unfolded. It's easy to get wrapped up in chatting with people you haven't seen in a while. And the Photo Booth was a HUGE hit! Patrick did a great job instructing guests and putting our book together. All in all, I was extremely pleased with the entire day's events! I will be sure to pass all of this info along to Jane & Rachael at the Washington Crossing Inn. Thanks again, and take care!”

We used this vendor for our Photography, DJ, and Mark K. was our officiate and MC. Mark did an extraordinary job at our ceremony. It was exactly what we had pictured. He was amazing as our MC at the reception. He had everyone dancing all the time. I've got nothing but compliments about the whole wedding. We also had him do our dinner blessing because we didn't want to put our family on the spot. He was so personable and just really great at his job. The photographers were fun and easy to work with. We can't wait to get our pictures back. I highly recommend Mark and his team for any party you would want to throw. You can't go wrong here!!

Going with a vendor that provided one stop shopping can sometimes be scary because you are relying a group of people you don’t meet until that day but it was the best decision we could have made. Mark as our Officiant was wonderful not only did he send us sample ceremonies so we could assist with what was said at our service you were able to add your own twist to the ceremony and keep it light and enjoyable. Paul our photographer managed to capture every special moment and was extremely attentive to our needs the pictures are amazing and when it came time to make the album they worked with us to make it perfect the finished album is beautiful. Dennis our videographer worked well with Paul and was also attentive. Our video is great and captured so many special moments and ones we didn’t even realize happened. And our DJ Brandon managed to keep the dance floor hopping all night long. We were so happy we decided to go with Encore Entertainment they definitely made our special day special.

We feel so fortunate to have had Encore Entertainment for our wedding! Right from the start, they were very aware of what we wanted and envisioned for our wedding. They were professional and reliable. They answered emails promptly and were very willing to meet in person to discuss details.The passion for music, technology and sound was apparent right off the bat. Mark and his team's enthusiasm was magnetic and they gained our trust immediately. The online music database and planning forms are amazing tools that will take all your stress away! In regards to the performance on our wedding day…The dj and the MC were phenomenal!! To start, the timing was spot on. The MC was an excellent MC for the introductions and announcements throughout the night as well as getting the guests up and moving! And as far as the music, Our dj killed it! He kept the dance floor PACKED all night!! Our guests ranged from ages 5-90 and each and every person was up and dancing. Thanks to the great teamwork, we continue to get rave reviews from guests about the awesome music and great time they had. They made us feel relaxed and confident in their abilities.They set up dance floor lighting AND PERSONALIZED monogram spot light which were great additions to the dance party! If you are looking for a fun, classy, great time with the best music, then choose Encore Entertainment! You will not regret it!!!

I can't thank Mark and his team from Encore Entertainment/Ultraxx DJ's enough for the service they provided for me and my husband on and before our wedding day. From the beginning, Mark made us feel like we were his only client, a difficult task to accomplish for any bride! I had seen his work and met him at bridal shows, but it was the consultation that firmed up my feelings that this was the right company to handle my Photography, Videography and Music services. He thoroughly explained his packages and patiently answered all my questions. For someone needing all three services, it was very affordable and beautifully presented. They gave us access to online tools we could use to fill our formality songs, the DJ list and the photo shots we wanted at our own leisure.
The week before, our Emcee Brandon, called us to review songs, pronunciations of names, etc. which I loved. Our main photographer Steve also called us to review the scheduling and where we wanted him and Ray, our second photographer, to be the day of the wedding.
On the day of our wedding they arrived early! He was able to get the shots I wanted while I could sit back and relax.
Brandon did a PHENOMENAL job! It was smooth and he was personable and hilarious. Playing the "napkin game" he managed to get the ENTIRE room up and dancing; I have never been to a wedding where that has happened! Luis did a great job playing the music we wanted and read the crowd, knowing what song to play next for flawless transitions.
We also had a Photobooth that was a hit! Everyone loved taking silly pictures and was excited to keep a copy. Cory was wonderful and patient.
Our videographer Dennis did a beautiful job. I always hear from friends that they don't want a videographer because they don't want to spend the money/won't watch it but the video is by far one of the most important and valuable things I have.
Encore Entertainment was the Best Choice we could have made in selecting a team for our special day!

My fiance and I went to multiple bridal shows and continued to run into Encore Entertainment. My mother's friend used them for her wedding and adored their work! After setting up a meeting with them they were just like friends! They listened to what we wanted and gave us tips on what we could add that we would like! Mark and his group went above and beyond on the day of the wedding and 2 years later STILL stay in contact.

Hiring Mark and his team was one of the best decisions I made for our wedding, if not the best. I didn't want to have to meet with a bunch of different vendors, and I loved the convenience and ease of having one company supply all our needs.

We hired Encore Entertainment to provide: ceremony music (Mark hooked us up with a LOVELY classical guitarist), cocktail hour music, DJ, MC, 2 wedding photographers, videographer and a photographer to shoot our rehearsal dinner on Friday night. Wow. What a package.

Mark personally emceed our wedding and he was FABULOUS. He kept the party moving smoothy and all I had to worry about was being the star and having fun (and being with my new husband of course!) The most important thing we wanted for our wedding was our guests to relax, let their hair down and have fun. And that is exactly what Encore provided. All night long and even months after the wedding, people come up to me and compliment what a great DJ he was. My mother, grandmother and aunts all remarked how he kept the party moving smoothly and coordinated everything.

Another plus of hiring Mark is he gives you prints of ALL your photos. We picked up 2 massive shoeboxes full of images from our big day. If you've done your homework, you know that is rare. Lots of photographers give brides the CD of images, but make you pay to order physical prints. Not with Mark. I feel so lucky to have all my images in hard copy -- for free.

Now, in summary, you might think he costs a pretty penny, but for everything Mark supplies, his prices are very reasonable. We got quite a package from him and I found the total price to be very reasonable. Mark will also work with you. He is quite the saavy businessman. I am happy to talk to anyone interested in hiring Mark, as I know planning can be quite stressful. Take some of the stress off and hire Encore!

Encore entertainment made our wedding day wonderful and a day no one, especially my new husband and I, would ever forget! Mark was able to get literally everyone out on the dance floor (a feat I have never seen at any other weddings) and people exclaimed all night how great the DJ/MC and music were. Christian and Paul were absolutely phenomenal photographers, we couldn't have asked for any better. They were extremely personable and very thorough, and we love all of our pictures.

Hi Mark,

Some of the comments I am hearing back from friends and relatives: “Best Wedding Ever!”, “We had such a good time!”, “The MC/DJ was great!”, “Photobooth was a great idea!”

Based on the number of people dancing as well as the different age groups that were dancing, I have to say that you did a Fantastic Job! I don’t think I ever saw the dance floor empty the whole night! The music that you played was Great! I have not heard one negative comment about the reception.

Thanks so much for making the night so much fun! Jessica and Andrew truly had a great time, and that’s all we could ask for.

Thanks,

Lola (Mother of The Bride)

Simply put, Encore did an amazing job and we loved every minute of it. We were able to relax and enjoy and not stress about anything. Brandon, our MC, was energetic and fun. He got everyone moving, even relatives who probably haven't danced in years! Brandon coordinated everything perfectly and we never felt out of place or unsure what was happening. Our DJ, Flip played an awesome set. We heard so many great things from family and friends about the fantastic flow of the music and the ability of Flip to seamlessly transition from one genre to the next. Our photographer, Steve was extremely easy to work with and we were excited about the sheer number of photos he took. He captured some of the best moments during the ceremony. Mark and Viktoria helped us feel as ease and prepared. Thanks for all you did to make our day even more amazing, or as they say at Encore - fun, unique, and memorable!!

Hello,

My husband & I used the DJ Mike Scott with the DiNardo brothers. He was AMAZING! We've had so many compliments on what a great job Mike did.

Planning:
The DiNardo Brothers have a GREAT interactive website that allows you to easily create a schedule of events with the songs that apply to each moment of your special day. The site also makes it easy to create your play list and prioritize each song.

Communication:
We booked Mike only a few weeks prior to our date. He and the owners of the company remained in constant contact. Mike was easy to talk to. Whether it was text, e-mail, phone or facebook he would always respond in a super timely manner. We made changes to the song list & order of events up until 2 days before the wedding. Mike was laid back & easy going yet confident in pulling off a great event (which he did!).

Ceremony:
The ceremony was held outside & went absolutely FLAWLESS. Mike & his assistant arrived early, providing music for our guests as they were seated & executed all of the songs planned for our ceremony perfectly.

Cocktail hour & reception:
Mike took into consideration all of our requests, genres of music & kept the flow of the reception on track. From cocktail hour, to announcements, first dances, cake cutting, garter/bouquet toss & down to the last song of the night he kept everyone happy, entertained & excited! Their lighting on the dance floor was great, it created a party atmosphere without making the venue seem like a club.

We really could not have been happier. He was able to mash-up a list of songs requested by all of our guests so that everyone was able to hear something they had asked for, he added beats to classic songs so it felt like we were listening to our favorite oldies but with a modern twist and he knew exactly what to do in order to keep the dance floor moving!

We cannot thank Mike and The DiNardo brothers enough! 100% would recommend them for any event.

Excellent service! As promised, they went out of their way to ensure everyone had a good time at our wedding. I've heard nothing but compliments since. I ran into some financial issues towards the end and they were more than willing to work with us. Fantastic company to work with!!! Not only were they extremely pleasant to deal with, they were very interested in my satisfaction during the planning process, at my wedding and even after. They exceeded my expectations by far with everything ranging from services, photography, videography, etc. My wedding would not have been the same without them :)

We hired Ultrax to provide a photobooth for our reception, and we are so glad we did! We had Corey man the booth, and he was so fun and a perfect person to have to get our guests excited to don the props and take silly pictures!

The photobooth is definitely the best around. I loved how you could print a third photo strip, print a large photo, and everything printed so quickly!

We also got an amazing scrapbook with all the photo strips from the evening, which the guests could sign. We still get a kick out of looking at it!

If you want an awesome photobooth for your wedding, go with Ultrax! Also, if you want an awesome person in charge of said booth, go with Corey!

Encore Entertainment did a great job at our wedding on Aug 24th at Washington Crossing Inn. DJ Louis and Emcee Brandon did an amazing job getting the party going. I can't recommend them more highly for the complete package for wedding entertainment. Everyone at the wedding thought they were the best DJ/Emcee they had ever had at a wedding and at least one of our friend's is going to try and get them for there wedding next year. We also used Encore for our photographer and the pictures are excellent!

Everyone loved the photo booth and the attendants were professional and super nice! I love my book of photos and appreciate the added effort to get more photos taken when I realized how little the booth was being used. You know people get caught up talking, drinking and eating and may not see the booth or hear the announcement that it's there. I was upset that there weren't more photos in my book so the attendant helped me get more people and stood extra for us. I wish i couldve gotten in more with my family and friends but glad i got in with the hubby once and my makds once....still bummed i didnt get in more....its sohard when youre the bride and groom, though. Also, we had asked for an open photo booth and it was closed during cocktail and part of reception until I noticed. I told the attendant and she changed it for me with her partner immediately and apologized. It's just too small closed:( we got great pics, the
Rope they supply are great and overall we were very very happy with this company and their service to us. I highly recommend this companies services!!!!! A special thank you to Mark for working with us, meeting with us and for helping us:) we truly appreciated it!!!!!!!

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Encore Entertainment and Ultrax DJ's. My husband and I got to experience their DJ and photography services at a friends wedding and right then and there we knew we wanted their services for our wedding (specifically Mark K.) When we contacted Encore, we were thrilled to find out that they not only offered music and photography, but videography and photobooths as well. Having one vendor for all your wedding needs--what a stress reliever!! It was also a stress-free experience because of the professionalism, knowledge, and responsiveness of each and every employee. To top that, it was evident that our DJ/Emcee, photographer, videographer, and photobooth attendant, were genuinely excited for my husband and I. They truly made the wedding process a joy to go through and the wedding day a blast!. Our wedding photos are beautiful, the photobooth pics are hysterical, the video is exceptional, and the music entertainment, although I can't hold it in my hand or put in on my coffee table, will never be erased from our memories and our guests memories...people are still raving about it!

Hi Mark,

Shirley and I just wanted to Thank You and all your staff again for making our Wedding day a Wonderful Experience From the beginning of the wedding planning process, your office team of Heather and Viki made it easy to order the invitations and they were so helpful in answering any and all of our questions in a very efficient manner. On the wedding day, Photographer Steve did a great job. He was very organized, kept everybody relaxed and made the picture taking experience Fun. Oh, and the photos came out great as well !.. As for the wedding ceremony and the reception, you and DJ Henry G were Awesome. Your interaction with the guests and the Great Music kept the party going. Shirley and I had a Blast, as did all of our guests. Our day was Truly Memorable and Fun thanks to you and all your staff.

Adrian and I had a great time at our wedding!!! It was so fun for us to see every single one of our guests on the dance floor during the reception. The music that was chosen for the cocktail hour were just right and the ceremony music came across perfectly. I've had the chance to speak to a number of our guests since the wedding, and they all had a great time thanks in no small part to Ultrax DJs. Some guests even specifically commented on how great both the DJ was!

Encore entertainment did a fabulous job planning, organizing, and entertaining at my wedding. I can honestly say they stood by my side every step of the way.

I was so impressed with how well the team worked together. I had two DJs, one photographer, one videographer, and a photo booth attendant. They all were extremely pleasant and accommodating. They brought so much enjoyment and fun to the entire day (including getting ready for the wedding).

My guests loved the music and entertainment so much they were asking me if I could make a wedding sound track! Seeing all my guests smiling and having a good time was so important to me and encore entertainment made that happen! At one point, one of my DJs got every single guest out on the dance floor! (Not kidding, all 150 guests)

Overall I was very pleased with the services provided by Encore Entertainment. I have no regrets in choosing them for my wedding entertainment. My pictures, album and video came out beautiful! I really feel like I received the most for my money.

Encore Entertainment went over and beyond what I expected them to do. The guests from my wedding are still coming up to me saying my wedding was the best wedding they have ever been to!

With all the stress we were under with Hurricane Sandy and having to change our wedding from Friday night to Saturday morning, your company made it so much easier for us. We called the day before the event and switched everything, and your flexibility was amazing. I truly can’t thank you all enough for everything you did to make our wedding everything we imagined it would be. It really was PERFECT, and our wedding album is FABULOUS!!! We truly enjoyed working with you all, and will always recommend you to anyone that is in need of your service.

We booked our photography and officiant with Encore Entertainment. They helped us through the entire process down to exactly what kind of shots we wanted taken. We were getting married at a hotel and during march so we knew it would be cold outside and there would not be many flowers. So we wanted to find a photographer that has photographed at this venue before and we know we went to the right place with Encore Entertainment. Our photographer was phenomenal. Steven helped us figure out what photos we wanted and he was very laid back and not pushy on the day of the wedding. He did an excellent job. As for Mark who was our officiant, he was awesome. He helped me figure out the perfect ceremony down to the readings and vows. He made sure everything went as planned the day of. Their company even got us back our photos fast! Within two weeks we had back all the photos the photographer took and all we have to do now is decide what photos we want for our albums! And those albums will be back within 6 weeks of choosing them. Thats incredibly fast! I know some brides that got married a year ago and they have yet to get their albums back! If you want an amazing experience and amazing photos I highly recommend booking with Encore Entertainment!

Encore Entertainment made our wedding so memorable. Since that day, everyone I talk to who attended our wedding has had nothing but positive things to say. My guests cannot get over how much fun the dancing was all night long. Many of my guests have told me that the intensity and energy at my wedding was much higher than any other wedding they have ever been to.

They used a technique to get everyone moving was such a surprise and a HUGE success! The next day, one of my bridesmaids said to me, "During that part of the reception, I looked around to all the tables thinking there has got to be some people who just sat there and didn't want to participate. But when I looked around NO ONE was sitting down out of all 160 people! I've never been to a wedding before where EVERYone was on the dance floor at the same time!"

Encore Entertainment kept the energy going all night long. We had a lot of younger people at the wedding so I knew there would be a lot of dancing, but I was shocked by the consistently large number of people on the dance floor. Everyone enjoyed themselves, no matter their age. My husband and I were sad when 11pm rolled around, and we thought the reception went by way too fast! The music stopped, but it left behind a lot of people still ready to dance and have a good time.

In addition, all of our planning went very smoothly with this company. They have online event planners to make everything easier, and the staff is easy to work with. I would highly recommend using this company for your wedding!

What a pleasure it is to write this comment. I utilized their services for a photobooth at my daughter's wedding in August of this year. Mr. Mark Klatskin did all he could to accommodate my needs in terms of price and service.

The day of the event, everyone utilized the booth and mentioned how great it was to participate. There were no complaints from any of the guests, and everyone appreciated leaving the event with an additional gift, which was their personalized picture.

Shortly after the event, I reached out to Mr. Klatskin about a concern and he professionally and sincerely listened and put actions into effect to help me rectify the situation.

Overall, I would not only recommend the services of this vendor but would also utilize them again.

I am very happy that I met Mr. Klatskin and did business with him.

"Our daughter was married on Saturday, October 13, 2012 at the Lambertville Inn. Ultrax Disc Jockeys did a superb job for the wedding. We had a long list of music we wanted and they played them all. They worked hard with us before the wedding day to make sure everything was perfect. Also, their DJ came out on the dance floor along with our guests to show everyone how to do the Electric Slide and Cotton Eye Joe (at our request). The DJ's fired up everyone at the wedding and got them out on the dance floor. Everyone had a great time! We were so happy with Ultrax Disc Jockeys and we will definitely recommend them to friends and family! Thank you!"

Sincerely,
Andrea

Brandon was the MC at my daughter’s wedding, and Luis was the DJ. Brandon was perfect for our wedding reception! He was full of energy and positive vibes. Everything about Ultrax services was perfect. The outside sound system for the cocktail hour was just right. Music selections were perfect for mingling, setting the tone of an elegant reception. Once the party moved inside, things got off to a great start with introductions by Brandon and music by Luis. From this moment on, there was non-stop fun! Brandon coordinated the events with the reception staff, and everything went off like clockwork! When guests were eating, Luis played selections at a perfect volume. Guests could talk without having to shout, and the music filled the room with warmth. Between dinner courses, Brandon kept the party moving, getting everyone up on the dance floor with his enthusiasm and charm! When the reception was over, we felt like Brandon and Luis were part of our family since they blended in so well with everyone. Their music selections were perfect. Their energy and enthusiasm had everyone in the room dancing, laughing, and having the time of their lives! We received many compliments from our guests about Brandon and Luis. Most of the guests said that they had never had so much fun at a wedding before. As we look back on our wedding, we recall that choosing a DJ group was one of our hardest decisions. We agonized over who would be just right for the kind of party we wanted to host. In the end, our decision to go with Ultrax Disc Jockeys was the perfect one. Mark Klatskin is a true professional who loves what he does, and he is very good at it. He promised us a great event, and he delivered. Our family and friends loved Brandon and Luis, and they made the reception an event to be remembered. I would be happy to recommend Ultrax DJs to future brides and wedding planners.

Encore provided 110% service for our wedding in June 2012 at the Washington Crossing Inn. Music was an important thing for my husband and I and they delivered. Everyone who was at our wedding still talks about our DJ and how great he was. After everyone finished eating he played a game that eventually got EVERYONE on the dance floor and I mean everyone. People who don't normally dance were out there. It was sooo fun and exciting to see all our friends dancing. We gave him some selections of songs and he played all our favorite hits. We made many decisions while planning our wedding and selecting them was one best decisions. We also used them for our photographer and video. They both did an excellant job from what we have seen so far. I hear the bad stories where pics don't turn out great and I can say I'm honetly so happy with them. Lauren our photographer was soo friendly and made us feel so comfortable during out shots.

Don't hestiate on these people, book them!!!!

Encore Entertainment & Ultrax DJ's made our wedding day a huge success!! Our photographers and videographer were with us the whole day catching every special moment. We were extremely comfortable with them and impressed by their professionalism. Every time we turned they were there to document, but never in an intrusive way. We are really looking forward to seeing our pictures and video! Mark was our DJ and did a fabulous job! He had EVERY person on the dance floor at one point. I couldn't believe it! He is truly experienced and knows how to keep the party going. He worked with our venue to make sure there was no downtime where we could have been doing something else. I had guests who asked if Encore would travel to their events because everyone was so impressed. We also had a photobooth, which was a huge hit! There was always a line of people waiting to take pictures. Our guests were able to keep a copy each and also put one in a memory book for us. They also wrote us a little message next to their pictures. We loved looking at these the next morning and got so many compliments on it. I know our wedding would not have been as amazing as it was without Encore Entertainment and Ultrax DJ's!!

Let me start off by saying that, booking Ultrax Disc Jockeys & Encore Entertainment for our wedding was probably one of the best decisions we made!!!! Throughout the whole process Mark and Viktoria always kept in contact with us and were always there to help answer any questions we had!! Lauren, our photographer, was absolutely amazing!! We first met her a couple months before our wedding to do an engagement session at Citizens Bank Park!! She was so enthusiastic; it made the experience even more exciting!! Lauren took over 350 pictures and they all came out great!!! She was very professional and had a lot of great ideas for poses!!! But our favorite ones were when she told us to just act natural!! And then when the day of the wedding came, Lauren was at the hotel where we were getting ready the whole entire time!! Not only did she take amazing pictures of the whole bridal party getting ready, she was there to help!! She helped me with my dress and also went down the boys' room and helped them with their boutonnieres!!! Lauren took tons of impressive action shots during the wedding and we can't wait to see them all!!! Definitely glad she was there to be a part of our memorable day!! Now on to Dennis, our videographer!! Such a nice guy!! He was everywhere!!! He made sure he got every shot that was important!! It was great, cause during the ceremony, we knew he was there recording, but he wasn't in the way of guests and he wasn't all in our faces, distracting us!!! You barely knew he was there!! He worked very well with Lauren, and got lots of footage for all the memorable moments during the reception!!! We also loved how he went around to guests so they could say messages into the camera!! Definitely excited to see the raw footage and edited video!! And last but not least, our emcee and DJ, Mark and Luis!!! These two together, without a doubt, put the icing on the cake!!!! The online planning tool we filled out was a big help to pick out all the music for the ceremony and reception!! Luis played every song on that list, at the perfect times!! He always had everyone dancing!! And Mark was AMAZING!!! Our favorite memory of the reception was Mark having each table pass a napkin around and when he said stop, the person holding the napkin was the dance captain!! The dance captain was now in charge of getting their table up and dancing!!! Mark literally had all my guests up and out of their chair, doing a conga line around the whole room!!! That definitely set the tone for the rest of the reception!!! I still have people talking about how amazing our wedding was because of Mark!!! We wouldn't have changed anything about our wedding for the world, especially having Mark and his crew there!!! We are very grateful for them making our wedding the best day of our lives!!! Thank you sooooooooo much for everything!!! We will definitely pass along that having Ultrax Disc Jockeys & Encore Entertainment will make your special event the best day if your life!!! Sincerely, A Very Satisfied Couple”

Encore Entertainment did a fantastic job on our wedding day. Our contract included photography, videography and dj entertainment. Mark was very professional and spent a great deal of time with us during our first meeting. Many of our guests said that they've never seen so many people on the dance floor at one time. We had a photobooth, complete with props, and it was a big hit. We're still waiting for our photos/videos so can't comment on them yet. The photographers/videographer were so easy to work with. We can't wait to see how the pictures came out.

Mark,

I hope you remember Rob and I as fondly as we remember you (Nov 7, 2009). I wanted to share a story I think you'll like. Rob and I just attended his cousins wedding down in Texas. Several of the guests were also at our wedding. While the wedding was lovely, we heard many comments throughout the weekend about how nothing beats our reception and it was hands down the best party ever! Rob's uncle was still raving about how you got everyone dancing and had the best "flow" of music. At one point, the mother of the bride whispered in my ear, "I would have shipped your DJ down here if I could have."

It made us smile, of course, but I just had to share the comments with you. Two and half years after our wedding, no one has forgotten Encore;)

Mark,

“You helped make our wedding day one of the best days in our lives! Everyone loved the music. You were able to get some people on the dance floor who never even dance. Now that’s an accomplishment! You really know how to throw a great party. I wasn’t too sure about the table game during the beginning of the reception, but you told me to trust you and I’m glad I did. It was great! We loved everything you guys did for our wedding we had a blast and everyone that came said the same. My favorite part was when everyone was dancing on the dance floor at the beginning of the reception. Everyone loved the music. I still get comments today about how great the DJ was that night." - Rayna & Curt's Wedding, The Pen Ryn Mansion, April 30, 2011

Hi Mark,

The wedding was wonderful, and the staff at your company was very professional and personable. We enjoyed working with all of the staff for planning. They were clear about what they needed, and able to help us decide what choices would work best for us.

Lauren was great about getting the pictures done before the ceremony and including everyone we wanted. She was even helpful with the wedding dress when no one else could figure it out. We can't wait to see how the pictures turned out.

Billy did an excellent job getting the music that we wanted worked in, and anticipating what our guests would enjoy. Our family was impressed with the music selection as it offered something for everyone. He created a very comfortable and fun environment where everyone could really enjoy themselves.

We also have gotten a lot of compliments on the short and sweet ceremony. Thank you for leading us through it. Over all our experience with Ultrax Disc Jockeys and Encore Entertainment was fantastic.

Thanks again,

Aly and Ryan

We used Ultrax for our reception and they were awesome. They got the crowd up! We also rented their photo booth and it was a majot hit at the wedding. All of our guests loved it. At the end of the reception, they gave us a keepsake book of everyone's pictures from the reception. It was so neat! We HIGHLY recommend them!

We definitely had a great time, I'm still hearing comments from guests that said the DJ was awesome. I also heard from one guest who said that she NEVER dances, but was dancing at our wedding the whole night! Thank you so much for your professionalism, to be honest with you, your service was better than the Marriott's, which I've expressed my dissatisfaction with them already. It was the little things that I appreciated most, like when you asked me what I wanted to drink and when you got my photographer to take a picture of my wedding party when they came up behind our sweetheart table.

Thanks again and I will definitely recommend you for all of my friend's weddings!

I am so glad I went with this company. I've never seen that many people get on the dance floor at a wedding! Everyone, and I mean everyone was on the dance floor! Mark's team did a wonderful job & exceeded our expectations! People constantly ask for his information. If you decide to go with Ultrax for your wedding, ask for Mark, he is the best!

"When we go out and attend a special event, we usually talk about the things that went wrong, the food and then what people wore. It has been 3 days now and all we can remember are special things - how the ceremony took place without a glitch, the long lines at the photobooth from start to end, all our guests (yes, all) lining up on the dance floor, how the video presentation took place without a slight mishap, and the way things went smoothly from start to finish that did not require any, if not minimal, effort from either of us.

When we agreed to hire your services for the event, we envisioned that the coordination between the MC, DJ, Photographers and videographers will be seamless. Your familiarity with the Holiday Inn at East Windsor made things even simpler - you have the place and the people in the palm of your hand. You are indeed the Master of Ceremonies!

We sincerely thank you and your team for making our wedding Very *Extra* Special.

Hi Mark, I just wanted to drop you a note and let you know that you and
your company did a wonderful job with our wedding. There isn't a single
thing we would change! Everyone loved how you involved everyone and got
them on the dance floor. It made it fun and exciting instead of having
people sitting around feeling bored. Thank you again for making our
special day even better!

To: Mark Klatskin and The Encore Entertainment Team (Lauren, Ray, DJ Flip, Patrick, Barkley, and Viktoria):

Shahriar and I did a lot of research prior to booking them as a vendor for our 2 day wedding event. Needless to say, we not only got a great value with the Triple Play package they offered us, but we got incredible service on all counts. I have received so much positive feedback on the entertainment for our reception at the Nassau Inn from our family and friends. Mark really kept things moving at a good pace and got everyone involved on the dance floor. Multiple comments from various age groups made statements in regard to the Ultrax DJs and Markl creating a fun and energetic vibe. We loved it so much, we had to extend our reception for an additional hour!

Lauren and Ray (Our Photographers) worked with us for our church ceremony on Friday at Saint David the King as well as Saturday at the Nassau Inn. They were incredibly professional and personable. They complimented each other very well. They created an environment that was very comfortable and relaxed and really made the effort to take all of the photographs we requested. I was thrilled with a few of the shots they let us see to give us a sneak peek. I am really looking forward to seeing the final results!

Patrick (our videographer) -- It was a pleasure to work with him as well. I know he was getting great footage of everything, but was very much out of sight as to not impose on the bridal party or guests.

Barkley was our "day of" wedding planner. She was there to help organize the events of the day and worked closely with Marianne Bilski, our planner at the Nassau Inn. The two of them worked effortlessly together like a well oiled machine... Barkley took care of any last minute details and checked in with us regularly to make sure we had everything we needed when we needed it.

Viktoria was very helpful in responding to email correspondance through our planning process and kept us on track with deadlines.

Given the nature of our interfaith/cultural ceremonies, they helped make our wedding day(s) unique and memorable with a sensitivity to our needs. Each of their staff helped to play an important role in our day and capturing the memories for us so we can look back fondly on our wedding day for years to come!

Sincerely,

Michele Moore and Shahriar Mamun
(Wedding Ceremony and Reception at The Nassau Inn - Princeton, NJ. September 25th, 2010)

As nervous first-timers, the thought of “planning” a wedding was daunting. Our goal was to rely on industry experts who could guide us through the process, without it breaking our budget. From our first meeting with Mark, we could tell Encore Entertainment & Ultrax DJs was the fit for us. Not only was Mark genuine and patient in answering our many questions, but Encore’s packaged services allowed us to choose premium services at a reasonable price, thus eliminating the need to coordinate with numerous vendors.

Encore provided our entertainment, photography (including photo sign-in and zap shots) and videography (including a “growing up” video montage). We even utilized Mark as our officiant and requested him as our emcee.

Mark and the DJ were spot on. The music was a perfect mix, incorporating our requested favorites, and was played at a level that wasn’t overly loud or obnoxious to guests. We mentioned that one of our hopes was to have everyone up dancing, even though we knew the reality is not everyone dances. Mark found a creative and fun way to get nearly every guest up and dancing, without the pressure tactics I’ve seen at other events. Even our older, out of action guests were standing, smiling and clapping along. We were thoroughly pleased. I can’t even count how many guests raved about our reception (even months later) and asked about our entertainment.

The rest of Mark’s team was skilled and very easy to work with. Our photographers and videographer listened to our requests and worked together with venue staff like they’d done this hundreds of times before. Oh wait…they have!! We didn’t have any of the problems or horror stories you so often hear about. Many of our guests commented that they loved the photo sign-in concept and the zap shots were fun to watch on the big screen.

Finally, our deliverables were all we hoped for. I asked for my own personal “paparazzi” for the day, and that’s exactly what I got. Everything we asked for was captured. Our pictures were professional, with just the right flair of photojournalistic fun. It was amazing to relive the day, and experience the things we never saw, watching our professionally-produced wedding video. Best of all, we own our materials (pictures & video), which adds to the package value tenfold. We were able to copy and share our photos with friends and family, without paying additional, unexpected fees. Encore is extremely generous with the copyright and what deliverables they provide (electronic copies, hard copies, raw footage, professional videos and albums).

It was an absolute pleasure working with Mark, Viktoria and their team, from wedding planning through completion of our albums and video. Even long after our wedding day, the team continued to accommodate sit downs to go over the final touches of our memories. We can’t thank you all enough!
