Jeff,

We would like to start off by saying THANK YOU for being our DJ and MC at our wedding. You truly are amazing at what you do, and surpass the title of “best DJ in the Okanagan.”

We never planned to have a DJ at our wedding, until we went to Theresa and Joey Easters wedding in September 2007. When we were at the reception and saw the games Jeff played, heard the music he played and saw how every single person at their wedding was having the time of their life, we knew we couldn’t get married without Jeff at our wedding. We even changed our wedding date a week ahead, so Jeff could be at our wedding. Jeff helped with every detail of our wedding planning. He took time to get to know my husband and I, he really wanted to know our likes and dislikes to make sure we had the best wedding we possibly could.

At our wedding, not only did he play music at our ceremony, reception and act as our MC for the night, he ran around making sure everything went perfectly through the whole wedding. Every one of our guests had an amazing time at our wedding. Everyone though the games Jeff put together were so much fun, especially Survivor and the Shoe game. The music was perfect and the guests had so much fun dancing the night away. Not once during our wedding planning did we worry about whether or not our guests would enjoy themselves, because we knew Jeff would make sure that happened. He went above and beyond our expectations, and we had an absolutely amazing time.
We highly recommend Jeff to anyone planning a wedding and wanting to have an awesome, fun party for your guests.

Thank you Jeff for being a part of our wedding and making sure our wedding was the best it possibly could be!

Koa Hughes, Jordie Bigler and our son Paeton!

Gil and I can’t express enough our appreciation for the wonderful job you did for us. Everybody, and I mean everybody, said it was the best wedding they had ever been to which is what we wanted and mostly due to you.

When we first met with you to plan this event, you asked what we wanted the guests to go home saying, and we said that they had a great time. Well they said that and more. Everybody said it was the best wedding they had ever been to and who was our DJ because he was just the best. You kept things moving, everybody entertained with your jokes and of course the “How well do you know the Bride and Groom” quiz, the shoe game, Survivor game and all those fun hats! You also were able to tap into our guests as to the type of music they enjoyed because I never saw the dance floor empty!

And on a personal note, you made us feel comfortable with the planning and helped with a multitude of questions we had for you. Something as simple as just greeting me at the car when we drove up to the church to help me get out was very nice and much appreciated!

Well we don’t plan on getting married again, but everybody wants us to do that again next year! Even our guests from Fort McMurray and Nova Scotia said they would come back for the party if you were there!

I understand my “alligator” girls partied through till midnight – I’m so proud! I’ve already had several people ask for your name for their functions and I’m pleased to give it to them.

We most certainly will recommend you to our friends. If anybody would like to contact us for a reference, please feel free to give them our names, we would be happy to tell everybody about your Survivor game, Shoe game, various party hats and great music!

Jenny & Jeffery Shannon

Happy New Year! Firstly, I want you to know that Jeffery and I had the time of our lives at our wedding. I did not worry about a thing because you kept the night upbeat and on schedule. Having you MC and DJ our wedding, all 250 of our guests felt included, entertained and had a blast. Everyone thought you were family or a close friend because you knew so much about us and had a very personal approach.
All of our friends and family loved the games and mentioned that it was the best wedding they have ever been to because it was different and unpredictable. One of the highlights for me was watching the Survivor game. I was shocked to see how competitive it became! To see everyone running around in your hats, and the extent they all went to trying to win was hilarious! The kids loved it as well. The personalized children’s coloring books was also a nice touch, and all the parents were very grateful.
The one thing Jeffery and I wanted more than anything was for everyone to have fun. I have never seen a dance floor packed at a wedding the way ours was, and for the entire night! I was told that our guests kept dancing until the lights came on and you were all asked to leave! That was great news.
Jeff, the reason why I think you’re the best in the industry is because you are so FUNNY, you work so well with besotted brides, and seem to be enjoying yourself doing it. There was not a moment where we were wondering what next or when the intensity was low.
I look forward to seeing you again at Carla and Rich’s wedding, but we will definitely be requiring your services for some upcoming business functions.
Take care Jeff and thanks again from the bottoms of our hearts. We will send you some wedding pictures ASAP.

Your service at our wedding was wonderful. We felt that you made the whole night come together. We have received the most compliments by our guests on how great you were. Everyone thought that you were our long time friend because you seemed to know a lot about us. I was really impressed by how you knew everyone’s name and made people feel included. We had such a fun time with the games as well, everyone has said that it was the best wedding they have been to in a long time, and you definitely added to that. Stephen and I are very happy that you were apart of our wedding night and have recommended you to everyone.

Jeff we had a great time with you and thank you very much for being apart of our night and making it fun and special for us…thanks again.

Shawneen and Stephen

PS – My sister is getting married in July, hopefully we will see you there!

TNI Network Christmas Party

We have been having company Christmas parties for many years now, and the party this year, with Jeff as our DJ, was the best by miles. Jeff kept everyone entertained all night long, not only with music, but also with interactive games which got the whole crowd involved. Previously at our Christmas parties, everyone went their own way after dinner, but this year when 1 o’clock hit, everyone was still in the room having a great time and we wanted Jeff to keep going. We have already told him we want to pre-book him for next year’s party!!!

Summerhill Pyramid Winery has been recommending DJ Haymaker for over 5 years  since he arrived in the Okanagan.

I have never had more positive feedback from our clients! Jeff provides the best customer service and the most amazing entertainment I have ever experienced. I know that any one of my clients that chooses DJ Haymaker is going to have the night of their life! He gets everyone out on the dance floor regardless of age differences or social situations.

I have had quite a number of brides concerned that their in-laws to be and families dont know each other well and that there are huge gaps in ages, I confidently tell them to hire DJ Haymaker and he is able to provide icebreakers and the best interactive activities to get everyone having a fantastic night together.

Personable, approachable, professional, and designing events that suit the client are his specialties!

I have yet to have anything but the most positive feedback about our clients events with you!

Thanks again Jeff for all our years together doing events,

Warm Regards,
Emily Vanderschee

Jeff truly is the only DJ I will recommend. He goes above and beyond the expectations of a DJ. He is professional, personal, talented and fun-loving. Your family will think he was a friend of the family by the end of the night. You can tell Jeff enjoys what he does and it shows in his work… he is worth every penny and then some! If you really want your event to end on a fantastic note then Jeff is your guy. No question about it.

Jeff is an outstanding D.J. He has a wide variety of music, and a great sense of humour. He can read a crowd, and plays the right music at the right time. Many of the guests at our wedding, young and old, said they loved the music. Jeff has a real talent for appealing to all ages and tastes. We could not have asked for a better D.J. After all, the music can make or break the party.
