    Stress free wedding !

    From the first call, Max made everything super simple. Planning a wedding can be stressful, but he broke everything down in a way that made it easy to understand and never overwhelming.

    Day of the wedding, he showed up early, was fully set up, and everything looked clean and professional. The sound quality was amazing and the lighting made a huge difference in the room — it didn’t even feel like the same venue once everything started.

    Music-wise, he nailed it. We gave him a general vibe and a few must-plays, and he handled the rest perfectly. People who NEVER dance were out there all night.

    Couldn’t have asked for a smoother experience.

    Brought the Hype!

    We booked Hypest Events not really knowing what to expect, and honestly they blew us away. Max wasn’t just playing music — he was basically running the whole flow of the night. Every transition felt smooth, and he knew exactly when to switch things up to keep people on the dance floor.What stood out the most was how easy everything was. He handled announcements, timing, and even helped guide us through moments we didn’t think about. Our guests kept coming up to us saying how good the music was all night. If you want someone who actually understands how to run an event, not just play songs, Max is your guy. Thanks again!!

    What a great DJ!

    Couldn’t have asked for a better DJ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    I’m not someone who normally writes reviews, but I honestly felt like I had to after working with Hypest Events.

    Max was incredible. From the very beginning, he just got it. We had a rough idea of what we wanted music-wise, gave him a few songs that meant a lot to us, and then let him take over — and he absolutely nailed it. Every transition felt right, the timing was perfect, and the energy just stayed high all night. I remember looking around at one point and realizing the dance floor hadn’t been empty once.

    What stood out just as much was how easy he was to work with. Super responsive, really chill, and just handled everything without making it feel like a big production or stressful at all. He showed up early, was fully prepared, and made everything run smoothly behind the scenes.

    Also — small thing but important — the announcements felt natural, not forced or awkward, which made a big difference for the overall vibe.
    Honestly, it felt like having someone who truly cared about making the night perfect, not just “doing a job.” If you’re even considering booking him, just do it. It was one of the best decisions we made.

    What a awesome DJ👏

    We were so happy we chose Max for our wedding. He was fun, professional, and really easy to communicate with the whole time. He totally understood what we wanted and created such a good vibe for the night.

    The music was on point, everyone was dancing, and the whole night just felt smooth and fun. He made all the big moments flow really well and helped make the reception feel special. So many people told us afterward how good the music was. We would definitely recommend him to anyone getting married.

    Where do we start

    Like many couples we were mindlessly scrolling the knot looking for DJs for our big day . What caught our eye about Max is that he was super charismatic from the start and was able to give us pricing and let us know the run down for the day of . He was super important in the planning process and let us know similar itineraries for similar weddings . Our wedding was a huge success because of Max . He was on point the whole night and the dance floor was full of energy . The vibe was just perfect

    Best of the best!!📣🍺

    We had the best experience working with Max. Day of the event, he showed up early, had everything set up clean and professional, and the sound quality was unreal. Transitions were smooth, vibes were high, and people did not want to leave.He also handled announcements and special moments like entrances and speeches flawlessly, which made everything flow perfectly. The lighting setup was next level too — it honestly transformed the whole space. Would recommend him to any couple!!!

    One of the best DJz we ever done seen !!!

    From the second we hired max we knew we were in good hands and our wedding would be special . He was very communicative about pricing and what to expect from the package we booked . On our wedding day he came dressed to impress and even showed up 30 minutes early to play ceremony music . Everything was amazing ! He was able to play all our playlists we wanted including our special requests right on the spot . We still get texts to this day about how amazing our event was.

    The perfect DJ

    Wow wow wow. My husband and I could not be more impressed with them . DJ Danny came super early to set up and was very prepared . He made sure to clip on our mics before the ceremony and had all our music lined up including after we walked down the aisle . For cocktail hour it was super continent to send them playlists that they could play . The dance floor was full of energy and everyone was having a great time . We got so many compliments about the DJ!! From the beginning we knew we were in great hands. 🙌

    Great service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    k I don’t usually write reviews, but Hypest Events deserves it.

    Max was unreal. From the minute he started, the energy just stayed up — like he somehow knew exactly what to play next. We gave him a couple “must plays” and the rest we let him do his thing… and thank god we did, because he absolutely crushed it. The dance floor basically didn’t empty.

    Also just super easy to work with. Quick replies, showed up early, set everything up without stressing anyone out, and was genuinely nice the whole time. The sound was solid, announcements were clear (not awkward), and he made the night feel effortless. If you’re on the fence, don’t be. Book Hypest Events. You’ll be glad you did.

    The best of the best .

    Hypest Events was hands-down the best decision we made for our event. Max brought insane energy, read the room perfectly, and kept the dance floor packed all night. We gave him a short “must play” list and trusted him with the rest — and he absolutely nailed the vibe from start to finish.

    He was super professional, easy to communicate with, arrived early, and made everything feel smooth and stress-free. The sound was clean, announcements/toasts were on point, and the transitions were 🔥. People are still talking about how fun it was and asking for his info.
    If you want a DJ who genuinely cares, knows how to keep everyone dancing, and makes your night unforgettable — book Hypest Events.

    Made our night 😊

    What a day. Max arrived early to set up and check in with the wedding planner . He was ready to go for ceremony and had his speaker set up playing the ceremony playlist . Our vows sounded amazing on his speaker and picked up everything clearly . For cocktail hour he brought his wireless speaker to the beach and was able to move it when the tide came up . Our reception was one out of a movie . For dinner he played elegant dining music and had all our first dance and father daughter songs on queue . The dance floor was packed the entire night . Thanks again !

    made the night so fun

    DJ Hypest was a huge part of what made the night so fun. From the moment the music started, the vibe just felt right. He knew exactly what to play and when to play it, and the dance floor stayed packed without ever feeling forced. What I really appreciated was how easy everything was. He showed up early, had everything st up without any stress, and actually listened to requests instead of brushing them off. The music flowed naturally, the transitions were clean, and it felt like he was genuinely enjoying being there with us. So many guests came up asking who the DJ was, which says everything. If you want someone reliable, chill, and really good at reading the room, DJ Hypest and Hypest Events are a no-brainer. Would 100% book again.

    What a great event :)


    DJ Hypest is the real deal. The mixes were insane, the pacing was perfect, and he kept the vibe high the entire night. It felt like a festival set but customized for our crowd. They were organized, on time, and super easy to work with. Our reception had audio that was very clear and everyone could hear the vows with the wireless mic . For cocktail hr he brought a wireless speaker so we can vibe out on the beach. He played all the music we requested to him before time .

    Wow !!!! Wow!!! Wow!!! From the first phone call me and my fiancé knew that Max was the real deal . He was super professional and was able to get all our music before hand ! He arrived to the venue hours before and even had time after he set up to help the venue move around tables ! Where do we start . Max thank you so much ! You made our wedding night :) All our friends were raving about you for the coming weeks after our event . He played a combination of the music we requested and the music he thought would be fit for the dance floor . We could not be happier with how things went .

    Read the crowd like a book !

    Max was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the ceremony to cocktail hour to the reception, everything sounded incredible and ran flawlessly. The sound quality was next-level, the wireless mics were crystal clear for our vows and speeches, and the energy never dropped. He truly knows how to read a crowd — the dance floor was packed all night, and guests are still talking about how fun the music was. Professional, organized, and completely stress-free to work with. You can tell he has serious experience and takes pride in what he does.

    If you want a DJ who brings festival-level sound, seamless transitions, and an unforgettable party, DJ MAX is the one. Highly recommend.

    Great event ! Thanks max !

    Max aka DJ HYPEST from the beginning was super professional and was able to send us videos of other events so we could see the vibe ! We hired him for our wedding after party because we saw on his instagram that he had a strong EDM background. He was able to blend our playlist with his own to create a solid mix that had everyone on the dance floor the entire night . His lighting and sound equipment on top of that was top notch !!! We were very pleased with the event and received several compliments about his energy and mixing skills .

    Made our event !!

    Max is truly the best DJ and such a pleasure to work with! My husband and I still get compliments on how fun our reception was over a year later. We gave him a short list of must plays and trusted him to feel out the vibe for the rest and he did not disappoint. Leading up to the wedding day he was so easy to work with, very helpful and never once came to me with a problem. Your wedding reception is supposed to be the most fun part of your wedding, make it also the most memorable by booking Max

    Max Killed It!

    We had our wedding in november in SLO on a ranch, and we were lucky enough to have Max DJ + emcee our reception and ceremony, respectively. he read the room well and listened to what we wanted. The ceremony was easy to hear etc etc. People came up to us to let us know how much they enjoyed the crowd work at the reception, which is exactly what you want to hear when you’re hosting an event like this. We can’t recommend him enough!

    Dj hypest crushed our reception :)

    We couldn’t be happier with the Hypest Events and DJ Max at our reception! From the very beginning, they were professional, responsive, and genuinely interested in making our day perfect. The music selection was spot-on — he kept the energy high and everyone had a great time on the dance floor. He read the crowd perfectly and made seamless transitions between songs. The sound quality was excellent, and their setup looked sleek and professional. On top of that, He also also provided a Photo Booth that was a huge hit! Our guests had so much fun with it and the printouts were a great touch. It added such a fun and memorable element to the evening.
    The pricing for both the DJ service and Photo Booth was very reasonable, especially for the level of service and quality we received. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend Max to anyone looking for a DJ who truly delivers!

    Wowowowow!

    We hired DJ Hypest through hypest events for our wedding and WOW—he exceeded every expectation! From our first call, he was organized, super friendly, and clearly passionate about what he does. He worked with us on our music preferences, read the room like a pro, and had every guest—from our little cousins to our grandparents—on the dance floor all night long. The transitions were smooth, the energy was high, and he nailed every moment from our grand entrance to the final song. Several guests told us it was the best wedding DJ they’d ever experienced. If you want a packed dance floor and zero stress, DJ Hypest is it.

    DJ MAX!!! Whoooo🎉

    Max was so easy & fun to work with! Music was such an important part of our wedding for both me and my partner and Max really did keep the mood up and the dancing going.

He was professional the entire time while still making sure that everyone was having a great time. Everything ran so smoothly and it was 100% because of Max! Hypest events and DJ Hypest were easily one of the best decisions that we made for our entire wedding!

    The perfect event.

    We hired DJ Hypest aka Max for our wedding and could not be happier with the experience. From the very first message, communication was clear, professional, and super friendly. He listened to what we wanted, gave helpful suggestions, and made us feel completely at ease about the flow of the night.

    On the wedding day, he showed up early, had everything set up perfectly, and kept the energy going from start to finish. The ceremony music was timed flawlessly, the grand entrance felt like something out of a movie, and the dance floor was packed all night. He blended our must-play songs with tracks we never would’ve thought of but absolutely loved. Multiple guests told us it was the most fun they’ve had at a wedding in a long time.

    If you’re looking for a DJ who is professional, easy to work with, and actually knows how to read the crowd and keep the party going, DJ Hypest is the one. We’d 100% book him again and recommend him to anyone planning a wedding or special event.

    He made our wedding feel like a movie

    don’t even know where to start with this review because saying “Max was amazing” doesn’t feel like enough. From the beginning, he was so easy to talk to—no ego, no pushiness, just genuinely wanting to understand our vibe. We told him we wanted a fun, high-energy party but also some really meaningful moments, and he nailed both.

    The part that meant the most to me: I had written a special song for my husband as a surprise, and Max handled the whole thing so perfectly. He helped me plan when to play it, made sure the audio was perfect, and kept it a total secret. When the song came on, my husband realized it was my voice, and everyone stopped for a second—then he brought the beat in and somehow turned it into this magical moment where everyone was still dancing and celebrating with us, not just watching. I’ll never forget that.

    The dance floor was full the entire night. He blended our playlists with songs that our guests loved (without turning it into a cheesy wedding playlist), took a few live requests, and kept the transitions super smooth. Even my parents and older relatives were out there dancing, which never happens. 10/10 would book again . Thanks again max !:)

    Best DJ EVER! 15/10!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    If you’re on the fence about booking Max Karpel (DJ Hypest) with Hypest Entertainment, DO IT. Hands down, he was one of our favorite vendors and a huge reason our wedding day felt so smooth and so fun.From the very first call, Max was organized, professional, and actually listened to what we wanted. He helped us plan out the ceremony music, grand entrance, first dance, and all the little moments in between. He also gave great suggestions when we weren’t sure about songs, but never pushed his own taste—he really tailored everything to us.

    On the wedding day, he showed up early, had everything set up perfectly, and worked seamlessly with our coordinator and photographer. The ceremony audio was crystal clear, the timing of every song was spot-on, and the transitions into cocktail hour and reception felt effortless.

    Once the reception started, that’s when “DJ Hypest” really showed up. He read the room perfectly—my younger cousins, our college friends, and even our older relatives were all out on the dance floor together. He mixed in our must-play songs, threw in some great surprises, and kept the energy high all night without it ever feeling cheesy or overdone. We had multiple guests tell us it was the most fun wedding they’ve ever been to and specifically mention how good the DJ was.

    On top of all that, Max made all the announcements (intros, speeches, cake cutting, bouquet, last song, etc.) clearly and confidently, but never made it about him. He kept the night on schedule while still letting us enjoy the moment.

    If you want a DJ who is professional, easy to work with, and truly knows how to keep a dance floor packed, book Max Karpel / DJ Hypest with Hypest Entertainment. He exceeded every expectation and we’re so grateful he was part of our day.
