Months later, our guests are still raving about the fantastic time they had at our wedding.
For us, the party was one of the most important aspects of the reception, so we wanted to be certain to hire someone who knew how to keep everyone of all ages entertained throughout the night, to keep the dance floor full, and Jeff did just that. It was seamless to the guests, but we could tell that Jeff had his finger on the pulse of the dance floor, and he knew exactly how to keep the energy up – the party was going right from the beginning of the night until the very end.
Not only did Jeff ensure that everyone had a great time, but his behind the scenes work with our MC, and the reception venue staff was invaluable to our overall experience. He worked so well with them to coordinate all the details that you don’t normally think of, to make sure that everything went smoothly!
And of course we have to mention all the days leading up to the wedding as well… Jeff replied so promptly and professionally to all correspondence. Also, with us not being in Kelowna until the week before, he was willing to meet with us months before to go over the details and planning, so that we felt at ease and organized. \We honestly could not ask for anything more and we cannot express our gratitude enough for making the evening so amazing. Hire DJ Haymaker! Best decision we ever made!
Out of all the decisions we had to make for our special day, choosing Jeff as our DJ gave us our biggest return on investment and it gave us our greatest piece of mind.
The information he collected from us before the wedding made it seem like he knew us, our wedding party, and our family for years. He has been through so many weddings, so getting his advice for the ceremony and reception was beneficial.
Jeff’s attention to detail and ability to read the audience kept the party going at a great pace. The games we played involved everyone and it helped strangers mingle.
One detail we enjoyed was Jeff making us sneak away after dinner for a 10 minute breather to relax and reflect on what has happened so far that day. It really helped us slow down and remember all the events of the day and enjoy it that much more.
Even though our wedding was over a month ago, our friends and family are still talking about how memorable the whole day was and how much fun they had. Most of those comments are directly connected to Jeff’s work ethic and approach to presenting a wedding as a big party and celebration of love.
Dan and I would like to send our gratitude for the best wedding experience!!
Our family and friends, including ourselves, have come to the same
conclusion…YOU ROCKED IT!!! The games were so fun and got everyone
engaged, the music was perfect for our group, and you captured everyones’
attention; wondering what was going to happen next!!This was the best time
everyone has had in a very long time!
Oh BTW, Nicole and Patrick (your newest BFF) asked for your contact
information to get information about what you can do for them at their
wedding next summer…so we may get to see each other next year 🙂
We can’t thank you enough for an amazing day!!! Everyone is still raving about how great you were. A friend at work has a swollen knee from all the dancing he did that night. He said its a constant reminder of how much fun he had at our wedding!
You and James make a great team, I’ll be trying to make friends with couples who have hired you for their wedding just so I can be invited!
Thanks a bunch Jeff, Let us know next time you are up here!
We just wanted to say how happy we were to have you be a part of our
wedding, you did an amazing job and we couldn’t have asked for a better
time. We appreciate all your hard work and energy that you brought to the
wedding and you were a large part of why it was so successful and fun.
Everyone we have talked to said what an amazing time they had and you had a large part to do with that.
Mark and I would just like to say thank you again, it was great working with
you, we definitely made the right choice !
My husband and I along with all of our guests were very impressed with the service provided by DJ Haymaker! The Survivor game was fantastic and I have had a lot of very good feedback about it (not to mention pictures from the part where the guys had to put the belts back on the other guys). It was a great game to bring everyone together and to have a few laughs! I was very impressed that unlike most DJ’s, Jeff was very involved in making our day the best it can be – from helping out our MC to helping coordinate everyone down the aisle at the ceremony to helping the groomsmen put on their “special” performance! So to sum it up – the night would not have been the same without Jeff and I think everyone who attended would agree!

I’m glad you enjoyed our crazy friends and family – I know we do!
Thanks for everything! If anyone has a wedding anywhere near Kelowna I will definitely suggest you!
Wow ok this took forever for us to sit down and write… sorry for the
delay! Seriously when you write your bio, call us cuz we have some awesome
stories to add about our wedding that were too long for the review!!!
Thanks again for everything… we are not making it up when we tell
you that people are still talking about August 18th. It was so
awesome, a much needed party, and we could not have done it without
you!
We are already talking about a little reunion/5 year anniversary
celebration in a few years with the whole crew… you my friend will
be included!
We will keep in touch and the next time we are in the area we will
drop you a line!
Good luck with everything, life, love, career, babies… the whole
thing. Can’t wait till we get to party again!
I just wanted to let you know how much fun everyone had at the wedding. All evening long and well into the next day, everyone kept saying ” this is the best wedding we have ever been to”
A huge big thank you to you. You really know how to engage people and keep the party going.
Your sound system is great, your lights are awesome and your games are second to none.
And I can’t forget your outrageously fun hat trunk. You are so good at what you do.
Thank you so very much. You definitely made the reception turn out 100%.
I do have one question however: What on earth do people do when they don’t hire you?
I have thought about it, and I have decided that people who don’t hire you to look after all that you look after, must have boring weddings or at the very least, very fragmented weddings.
Again, thank you so very much. You are most definitely in the right business. I hope you are still very much involved with weddings when my son gets married one day. I would love to ask you to come to his wedding as well. It may be a few years from now, so don’t retire for many years.
My husband Cary and I were married at The Harvest Golf Club in Kelowna, B.C. on August 10, 2012 and Jeff Hay was the ULTIMATE Wedding Entertainment Director! When we were engaged in August of 2010, we were referred to Jeff Hay from many local vendors. They all raved about his services and high energy and as soon as we receieved an email back from Jeff we knew that we were going to have a GREAT time at our wedding! He kept his positive and uplifting energy in this emails through right until the big day! There was no question about that, we had the funnest day ever! Jeff was very helpful with his wedding planning forms for the ceremony and reception and gave amazingly helpful tips along the way. When we met for lunch with Jeff to go over the details, one year before the wedding date, Cary and I could hardly wait for the day to arrive as Jeff had us grinning from ear to ear with excitement! He had us laughing and looking forward to all of the fun activities he had in store for a day that we had put so much effort into and so much work! It was so reassuring to know that he was going to match our passion and excitement and help work as a team to make wonderful memories happen!
When I met with Jeff in our Reception room before the ceremony I almost teared up when I saw him wearing a turquoise dress-shirt! It was such a thoughtful thing to do and showed he went above and beyond to notice our details and colors. He was apart of our wedding day team 100%! Jeff completed the music for our ceremony and added to beautiful ambiance and setting. He was helpful with guiding us through the timing for the walking down the isle! Everyone could hear the music and by using his lapel microphone our guests could hear our Vows! This was huge to us and we were grateful for his skills at setting everything up properly! After meeting with Jeff one time, we knew we wanted to hire him to be our Master of Ceremonies! This was one of the best decisions we made for our Wedding! Jeff’s energy and natural talents as public speaker and entertainer kept our reception lively and energetic ALL night! We went into our Reception carefree and with confidence as we knew Jeff would deliver a wonderful Party! Jeff was very helpful with planning the timeline set up for our day and lead the night with style and class. The Games and activities for our guests were so much fun and every guest had fun participating or was entertained by watching the activities! We have so many fun photos and guests have hilarious memories from the great night!
There was all smiles throughout the room all night and we have continued to hear amazing feedback from our guests. They have all be raving it was literally the best wedding they had every been to! They have exclaimed that we hired the best DJ they have ever scene. A friend commented the other day that it felt like Jeff knew us from before the wedding. This showed how much Jeff paid attention to our story and took the time to learn about us. Our goal for our wedding Reception was to have our family and friends to enjoy themselves and have a great time! Jeff helped us exceed our expectations and we are extremely grateful for the effort that Jeff exerted that went above and beyond his role as a DJ and MC. We will cherish our wedding day for always and I would recommend that anyone planning a corporate or personal event to book with Jeff Hay. He will be the glue to hold your day together and will provide you with an experience that will leave you with everlasting memories and smiles.
Thank you Jeff for being such a wonderful Wedding Entertainment Director! We could not have had such a successful day without you!!
We just go back from our honeymoon in Tahiti and still feel so excited about our wedding! We both had a fantastic time. Thank you so much for your enthusiasm, support and honesty throughout the entire wedding planning process. All of our guests have said it was the BEST wedding they have ever been to (yes!)! Honestly, the day after the wedding we got so many texts, emails, phone calls from on friends and family saying just how good it was. The proof to us was that so many people stayed right to the end (including both sets of parents). Also, Justin rarely ever dances, so to see him on the dance floor for 50% of the evening was SO GREAT for meJ! We are still talking and laughing about so many moments from that night (survivor, the hats, Party Rock Anthem, Avici and Bounce combo (Justin’s favorite), our first dance, our last dance (we were both still humming New York, New York on the plane to our honeymoon) our fact, fact fiction) there are just too many so many!!!
Here are our “thoughts” for your websiteJ
As soon as we met Jeff, we knew that we had made the right choice for our wedding DJ. He was enthusiastic, honest and supportive throughout our entire planning process and made us that much more excited for our big day. One thing that sets him apart is that he is always looking and willing to try new ideas to entertain our guests. From the moment Jeff took the microphone for introductions, he grabbed our guests’ attention and didn’t let go! He 100% orchestrated our entire reception; I didn’t have to worry about a thing. He knows the right music to play which was evidenced by all of our guests dancing and the majority of guests staying until last call! He is the reason why we enjoyed our reception! Thank you so much Jeff, it wouldn’t have been the same without you!
I am also 100% open to providing you a referral for potential clients. So feel free to send them my name, number or email.
Thanks again and can’t wait to party with you again!
