    What a great celebration!

    Marlon was so wonderful to work with. He was helpful in our planning, added his own special touches ( we loved the story of how the bride & groom met), and was flexible with our unique needs. He made my daughter's special day into a real celebration. Couldn't have asked for a better experience!

    It’s a party!!

    Marlon and Fortuity Ent was AMAZING!! From the first steps of planning, all the little details in between, to party time on our big day! They did an awesome job. The crowd was alive with our awesome DJ! So many personal touches, like telling our story to the crowd and getting our dance songs just right! We got a lot of compliments on how much fun it was and how great the music selection was. He was even a big part of our rehearsal dinner and facilitating during practice! You can tell they put their heart and soul into it!! So happy we went with them

    The BEST experience!

    I have hired Fortuity Entertainment after speaking with Marlon several times. We sat down and went over the contract and exactly what he is prepared to take care of on my big day! It was such a relief to speak with him since he is so experienced he was answering questions for me that I didn’t even know I had! He is going to my venue, will speak with my other vendors and make sure that everyone is on the same page! He is so excited and energetic I cannot wait to see how my special day turns out but I know it will be better because I made the decision to hire Fortuity Entertainment!

    Ok! Now that the wedding is over! I am so extremely relieved that I hired the perfect man for the job! Marlon kept me from having a total meltdown at the ceremony and reception. We started almost an hour late due to unforeseen issues. By the time the reception started Marlon made sure to include my husband and I in all decisions, made suggestions on how to gain back some of the time we lost and by nearly the end of the reception we had caught up on all we wanted to fit in, bouquet toss, toasts, everything! We were so very happy we still had some time to dance with our guests! Marlon, Fortuity Entertainment, was the only reason that our wedding seemed to everyone that nothing was wrong we just started a little late. Any other events that I plan in the future that needs a great MC I will definitely call the best! Thank you so much for all your hard work Marlon, Lance and I greatly appreciate it!

    Best dj ever!

    Marlon was absolutely fantastic to work with! He had such a bubbly and energetic attitude through the entire wedding rehearsal and wedding day. He was such a jokester which completely fit for our big day. He truly felt like one of our family members, not just a DJ to us. We loved how he told of our love story when we walked back in after the vows. He also helped coordinate and made sure everything flowed smoothly through the whole wedding. He stayed true to what songs we liked and picked others accordingly. HIGHLY RECOMMEND, YOU WON'T BE SORRY!!!

    Thank you again for being a part of our special day. :)

    He's a rockstar!

    I could not have wished for anything better in a DJ/MC than Marlon! I had no DOC and honestly no clue what I was doing half the time. Marlon swooped in with excellent ideas but not in an overbearing way. He pitched in with every detail-- even setting up tables! He truly made the day seamless and I'm so grateful.

    There is no better DJ!

    The most amazing DJ to work with. Prepared, personal, fun, energetic, punctual, flexible, consistent, friendly, and passionate. Marlon made our wedding experience amazing! When the timing of the wedding was falling behind, he rolled with it and made everything seem seamless. What I love is that as he was introducing the bride and groom (us), he took time out of his schedule before the wedding for a few hours and to hear our love story. The amount of intentional time Marlon took to make our wedding great was amazing. He kept the day flowing and didn't skip a beat. His sound system is up to date. He was there early to help other vendors find their place and to make sure the room sounded great! There is no better DJ than Marlon. He takes everything seriously to your liking. If you want a song played at a certain time, he will queue it up and do it. To back it up a little bit, the rehearsal dinner, his personality was able to grab the attention of everyone to get through the rehearsal. He is clear, concise, fun. Easy going, but knows his stuff. He knows all the typical wedding hits but also doesn't hesitate if you have any other requests. 6/5 stars for sure. Recommend every time.

    First off I can not say enough good remarks about Marlon! He is absolutely amazing from start to finish. No matter what I threw at him he was 100% attentive and responsive and encouraging. My wedding was a smooth day because HE made sure nothing went wrong. He made sure we stayed on schedule and that I was taken care of. He made sure to even text me the night before to ensure that my day would be PERFECT... and it was!! He was very social and brought a personable touch by getting to know my family and friends keeping us entertained with stories as we ate to funny stories while we danced. My family has used him now for three weddings and we will NEVER use anyone else. I would recommend him a thousand times over. A Dj can make or break a wedding and he absolutely went above and beyond. Thank you Marlon - Brandy

    The wedding was perfect thanks to Fortuity Entertainment! Marlon's extremely attentive to your needs and kept the guests going all night long. We could not have been happier and everything was SO organized. I never had to worry about a thing. Each transition was so smooth and he worked perfectly in sync with our wedding planner. If you are still looking for a DJ, stop here. Seriously. Marlon & Thomas made the night seamless. We are so happy!

    Marlon went above and beyond what I would expect for a DJ... he does little things that help make your wedding extra special and stand out from the rest.He is great to work with, very energetic, professional and reliable.

    Fortuity Entertainment's reply:

    Aine, the big smile on your face as you entered the reception made all my hard work worth the effort. You and Brian were two of the nicest people I've had the pleasure of working with. Thank you for the privilege of being a part of your special day. I wish you guys a long life together with lots love, laughter, and the pitter patter of little feet!

    This man was recommended to us by our venue. I'm so glad we listened to them. Marlon got to know us as a couple & became like part of our family. He's down right funny, has a big heart, & is so hardworking. He entertained everyone & really made the wedding fun!!! We love this dude!! You can't go wrong with him!!!

    Fortuity Entertainment's reply:

    Hannah, meeting you and your family and helping you and Michael celebrate your wedding day has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my career. I feel a special bond with your family, especially after the 'gift' from your father. :-) I know that you and Michael will have a life filled with love and happiness because you are both strong in your faith, and put God first in your marriage. Thank you for letting me be a part of your story.

    To everyone looking to find the perfect DJ for your special occasion: I am serious when I say that my husband and I LOVED HIM and honestly couldn’t of been happier!! He made our wedding night the best night of our lives, just as we hoped. Marlon doesn’t just provide exceptional music to keep the party going, but plans great introduction speeches and helps plan how everything is going to go throughout the night. He helped relieve so much stress with all of his knowledge and guidance. He went above and beyond to make sure that we were being catered to and always with a smile on our face. He is not only a great DJ, and wedding coordinator, but such a great person as well. I promise that he will make your occasion just as wonderful as he did for us!
    Oh and he is also a fellow Veteran of the US Navy which makes him even that much more AWESOME!

    Fortuity Entertainment's reply:

    Meeting you and Justin and finding out that you served on the same ship as I did, proved to me how small the world is becoming. I really felt privileged to be able to celebrate your wedding day with you. Thank you Raquel, for the kind words, and I hope your life together with Justin is long and filled with joy.

    Marlon is wonderful D?/Emcee to work with so professional and easy going. As an event planner I have had the pleasure of working a few events/weddings with him.

    As always top notch service, great prices, excellent customer service and every client has been over the moon with his DJ services.

    This most recent experience working with Marlon was this past 9/5/15 wedding. My client's Desiree and Ivan were so happy that I referred them to him and they enjoyed all the music and danced the night away!

    I look forward to continue working with Marlon/Fortuity Entertainment in the future events to come.

    Marlon of Fortuity Entertainment was the best DJ/MC we could have ever imagined! He exceeded our expectations from our first consultation all the way through the planning process and OF COURSE he delivered on the big day. He kept everything moving smooth and lively. My guests were always entertained. He had plans, back up plans, and excellent communication with me as well as coordination with my other vendors. He was always easily reached by a call or text and has great knowledge of the wedding industry. He helped me so much in finalizing plans. Also, he reassured me and took the time to go through all the “what ifs” I could think up during the stressful week leading up to the wedding. Fortuity Entertainment is the best!

    Fortuity Entertainment's reply:

    Ericka, I had a lot of fun helping you plan "The Wedding of the Century". I thank you and Rickey for giving me the opportunity to be a part of your Wedding Celebration. I also want to wish you both a life filled with happiness and laughter.

    DJ Marlon was the perfect emcee for our wedding. We had around 120 guests with varying degrees of rowdiness, but Marlon kept everything on schedule and in check. Not to mention, he played some awesome music and kept people up and having a good time all night. His willingness to get to know our bridal party, introduce them during the reception, and tell the story of how we (the bride and groom) met. I'd highly recommend Fortuity for a wedding, or any other event where you want people to have a great time!

    Fortuity Entertainment's reply:

    Nate, thank you so much sir, for the kind words! I really enjoyed spending time with you and your family (on both sides). Thank you also for allowing me to be a part of your wedding celebration. I know that you and Madison will have a wonderful life together!

    Marlon totally rocked our wedding! We went to 4 different weddings in the past year, and Marlon was by far the most professional and entertaining. If you want someone who is totally engaged and invested in making sure you have the most memorable night of your life, Fortuity Entertainment is the DJ for you. Thanks for everything Marlon!

    Marlon absolutely rocked our wedding! The guy was a consummate professional, and he was great at keeping the energy from the party on the up swing! He was great at engaging the guests and his prices were very reasonable. I'd recommend Marlon to anyone in need of an event DJ!

    Thank you for everything!

    We booked Marlon for our wedding at the Wishing Well Barn, and I'm so thrilled we did. He fit our small budget, but don't let that scare you - his level of quality and professionalism is no match for the price tag; we truly got a deal.
    Marlon is more than just a DJ that stands behind a table and plays requests and introduces you; he was the master of ceremonies, crowd entertainer, and even brought my Husband and I water to drink!!! We got a little behind schedule and Marlon was quick to adjust his schedule and squeeze things in, and no one even noticed the changes. He has a wonderful, engaging and gregarious personality that was contagious. If you need a DJ and MC in the Tampa area, I would recommend no one else.

    Fortuity Entertainment's reply:

    Heather, thank you so much for your kind words. I feel truly blessed to have been part of your wedding day celebration. My thanks to you and Luke for allowing me to pursue my passion.
