Jeff,

You were an absolute smash. We must have had 20 people, and that’s only whom we’ve talked to, say if they get married, you are the one.
Bar none, the feed back is no one has ever been to a better wedding and it was because of you.

Some of the youngers were ready to leave by dinner, until you came a…

Enterprise Steel – Sheri Clark

Everyone is still talking about how much fun they had playing the games you put on! The games you played with the group where a great way to get people to loosen up and have a great time.

Our group was not the easiest read either, but you managed to get and keep people on the dance floor!

As soon as I was off …

Oliver & Aimee Webbe

When we were planning our Osoyoos wedding from our home in Vancouver, we were told about Dj Haymaker by 2 of our friends who said that they had been to a wedding in Kelowna with the best dj who used hats and games to keep the party going.  I must admit that at first i was a bit skeptic of the hats and games, but from the first e-mails with Jeff Haymaker we could tell he was a complete professional who knew e…

More Than Just Music.

I help your guests connect, laugh, and dance so they leave saying “Best wedding ever!” Beyond music, I run a smooth, personalized show that feels unmistakably you.

READ MY FULL PHILOSOPHY

You’re inviting your favorite people from all over the world — they deserve an amazing celebration. We set a clear outcome (so-worth-the-trip, so-you-two, best-ever) and reverse-engineer the moments that create it.

From creative dinner ideas to turning “clink the glasses” into a memory, I bring MC leadership and interactive fun so, when it’s time to open the floor, your room is a cohesive, ready-to-party crew.

THE MC ADVANTAGE

Your DJ sees hundreds of timelines. I know what works, what doesn’t, and how to adapt the energy. I’ll guide the flow, keep your VIP moments on time, and make transitions feel effortless.
