Dean at Ultimate Events was absolutely fabulous for our New Year's Eve Wedding. He was so prepared and spent the time and effort to really get to know us before our wedding. He showed in everything that he did that he loves his job and was determined to make it the funnest, most special day of our lives. He always returned our calls quickly and made our crazy schedules work into his to hold calls and a meeting before the wedding. On the wedding day, he showed up early, stayed late, brought more than we expected and was able to read the crowd the entire night to keep things going. He was the best DJ we ever could've asked for and is someone that we will keep in our lives and at the top of our list for every event needing a DJ in the future. I recommend Dean and hsi staff at Ultimate Events without any reservation whatsoever. They are the best and earned every penny.

Met Dean Hall and his company, "Ultimate Events" at a co-workers recent wedding. I was SO impressed with his services that I hired him for our compnay Holiday Party. I am SOOOOO glad that I did so. Dean has an AWESOME, easy-going and VERY pleasant personality. He has GREAT communication skills as we spoke almost weekly on all details for over two months regarding my ever-changing requests for our event. Dean NEVER complained but only listened to my EVERY unrealistic request and offered GREAT ideas EACH and EVERY time. At the party itself, DEAN arrived early to set up and test the sounds in the large ballroom. Dean went on to a 10+ performance as far his music, MC, games etc.. He took over the night (as we had discussed) and did a FANATSTIC job. Dean made it priority # 1 to assure that EVERYONE was having a good time (Mission accomplished Dean!)This left MUCH more time for me to be a "Social Butterfly" and visit with our MANY guests.I would HIGHLY recommend Ultimate Events and plan to re-hire them in the VERY near future.Thank you Sir!!!

With a month or so to go before our wedding, my wife (fiancée at the time) and I were still looking for a DJ for our wedding and reception. Our choices were narrowed down to two. After meeting with both DJs, we had a difficult choice to make. We were really impressed with Ultimate Events/DJ Dean Hall but the other DJ was significantly cheaper. In the end, we went Ultimate Events/Dean because we liked what they had to offer, and it was completely worth paying a little more for the added value and peace of mind that comes with an experienced, knowledgeable, and energetic DJ. Ultimate Events/Dean bring a lot to the table: professionalism; a good attitude; a people person; tons of experience; attention to details; a good grasp of what works and what might not (and he’s very honest/straightforward in this regard); seemingly endless energy; and fun. Because of these factors, we felt more comfortable working with Dean.Dean had a lot to do with the success of our wedding and reception. With Dean’s input and execution, the ceremony was virtually flawless. The reception was just about perfect as well. Seeing it first hand, a good DJ for a wedding and/or reception is not just about playing music. Dean did a great job playing the right music at the right times and incorporating interactive games into our reception at the right times for the right purposes, which kept our guests entertained and the general mood upbeat. For example, to prevent chaotic stampedes to the buffet tables, Dean excused tables one-by-one by engaging the guests in a trivia game about our likes and dislikes – nice touch and very thoughtful.I imagine it’s relatively easy to cater to a particular demographic like the twenty-somethings in the crowd and keep just them happy but at our reception everyone from the little ones to the elders and the shy or grumpy to the out-going were up out of their seats having fun. It takes a talented DJ to make that happen. Indeed, throughout the reception, several guests commented that ours was the best wedding they had ever been to, and much of the credit goes to Dean.If you decide to go with Ultimate Events and Dean Hall to DJ your wedding/reception, you can be at ease knowing that you’re in good hands.

My fiancé and I procrastinated and waited until about a month before our wedding to start looking for a DJ for our wedding and reception. Luckily our day-of wedding coordinator gave us references, which included Ultimate Events (DJ Dean Hall).When we met Dean for the first time, we were impressed by his knowledge and energy. Going in we had a rough idea of some of the things and events that we wanted to include in our wedding and reception but had not figured out all of the details. As we talked to Dean about our plans, he was able to help us flesh those things out. We could tell by the questions he asked and the ideas he suggested that he is knowledgeable and experienced with weddings.Aside from his energy, what we really appreciated was his honesty with us. He wasn’t a “yes man” agreeing with all of our ideas just to please us. He wasn’t shy with telling us about potential problems or the cons of some of our ideas. That was a big factor for us in hiring Dean because we knew he was honestly looking out for us to ensure our wedding and reception would go smooth.We are so glad we hired Dean and Ultimate Events. Thanks in part to Dean, the wedding and reception turned out beautifully.

Dean Hall of Ultimate Events made our 50th Wedding Anniversary Party very special by keeping the party flowing and providing entertainment which pleased all ages present from our teenage grandchildren to our many senior friends. Dean was great to work with from the planning stages and throughout the party. He and his staff worked hard to find some of the nostalgic music we had requested. Our friends enjoyed playing a trivia game and seeing how Dean got our grandchildren to participate in an activity he had planned. He knows how to get all ages up and moving on the dance floor. Following the party we received many phone calls, emails and notes saying "great DJ", "best party I've ever been to", "a memorable evening" and "great Music".

From the Groom:From our first phone call with Dean, I knew he was the DJ for us. Few people have the power to radiate giddiness to those around them let alone through telephone lines. Dean does. Dean is a superstar. He is worth every penny. If you want to ensure that your guests have a good time and smile continuously, book him. Forget the decorations, the cake, the bridal party. All you need is Dean with his bouquet of colored lights spinning your party into dimensions of fun unknown to lesser parties. Half our guests didn't want to leave. We couldn't be happier with Ultimate Events!! Thanks again Dean you are the man. From the Bride:My guests to this day still talk about how great DJ Dean Hall was. Most of them saying "This was the best Wedding they have ever been to". I would like to thank Dean for helping us make this day one of the best day of our lives. He was so much fun, energetic and professional. He had the guests out of their seats laughing and dancing. I would give him a million star rating. Thanks again Dean!

Dean was the best DJ of all the weddings that I've ever been to. He has a great personality, is easy to work with, and did everything we asked and more! He is the absolute BEST and I recommend him for all weddings and parties.

Dean was the DJ at my daughter's recent wedding. He did an absolutely terrific job. Met with them beforehand to get lots of info and trivia on them and then used that info well throughout the evening to entertain the crowd. Dean infused the info into games that tables participated at and also got everyone up out of their seats to have some fun and dance!! Multiple guests came up to me to say how great the wedding was and I read posts online that it was the best wedding they had EVER attended!! That is an amazing testimonial! If you're looking for a DJ that does it all, Dean is the one. Great music, great fun, did his homework, very personable and it was very important to him that our guests had a great and memorable experience. Thanks Dean!!

Thank you Dean for making our wedding a true party. Thank you for being part of it. Everything came out exactly as we planned it. We had so much fun that I danced all night long. I am very happy with your performance and professionalism. I had so many compliments the same night about my MC, all my guest absolutely loved you. Patrick and myself can't be happier. We will have you in mind for future events.

Dean Hall went far beyond the call of duty. There was never a dull moment. All the guests were included every step of the way. His scheduled was perfect. He worked with the venue and everything went so smooth. I don't think there is any area that needed improvement. Thanks again for making my daughter's wedding the best it could be.

Ultimate Events was amazing! From the pre-wedding meetings to the wedding and reception itself, I have nothing but positive things to say about this company. My fiancee instantly knew that they were the ones to go with, and we couldn't have been any happier about the result. It sounds hyperbolic, but my feelings about them really are this positive. I can't tell you how many times friends of ours have commented about what a great job our DJ did. I look forward to working with them again soon!

It was a pleasure to work with Dean and Ultimate Events for our wedding. My wife and I are very detail-oriented people and we were really looking for a DJ that can stand in not only as the music provider and MC for the evening, but also someone organized and seasoned enough to coordinate the evening’s events as seamlessly as possible. Amazingly, we found this in Dean & Dawn at Ultimate Events!Upon our first meeting, Dean was able to set us at ease with his hospitality and professionalism. He offered us great activity ideas, as well as helped us solve the problems we were facing on how to make our wedding day flow smoothly. Both he and Dawn were extremely quick in responding to our questions throughout the planning process, and Dean was very meticulous when it came to running through and locking down the details to our final schedule. On the day, Dean was prompt, energetic and hit all the right beats. Though he checked in with us frequently, we never felt like we had to worry about anything because everything was always on point. All our guests had a great time, enjoyed the games and the dancing, and claimed it was the best wedding they’d ever attended.

So many of my guests asked "Who was that DJ, he was great!" Yes, Dean worked closely with us from the beginning to gather as much info from us, about us as possible. Dean was very professional, very organized, and even very entertaining even during our meetings. As the wedding day drew closer, again Dean worked even closer, thru all the changes, and changes of changes, to ensure we had exactly what we wanted. He asked the right questions, was accomodating in many ways, and was able to send us and our coordinator a clear itinerary of the reception. We thought we knew exactly what would happen when, but to our surprise, our wedding was not only smooth, flawless, entertaining from the beginning to the end, but Dean captivated the crowd beyond what we could ask for, and even surprised as numerous times! Dean was pricier than most other DJs out there, but he knocked everyone's socks off with an above par entertainment. I have and would highly recommend him to any bride & groom to be!

Request Dean Hall. We used Ultimate Events with Dean Hall for our DJ at our wedding and he was amazing. During our initial meetings he mentioned that people would come up to us and compliment us on the DJ choice during the wedding. At the time, I thought he was just being a salesmen so I smiled and went along with it. He was completely correct though. I must have heard it a dozen times that night: "This DJ is amazing!" "Where did you get this DJ?" "Good choice in DJ!" Even weeks after the wedding we will bring up just how awesome he was. The party never slowed down. As soon as things start to dwindle, Dean recognizes it right away and is able to get people up on their feet again immediately. He knows tons of party games to get people interested and he knows exactly how and when to use them. Dean always made sure we were happy and having a good time and in turn that our guests we happy and having a good time. When the buffet dinner was served, he arranged for them to make us a plate and have it brought to our table. After dinner, he brought us mints! Before we arrived, he was playing games with the crowd and even had a special surprise joke (joke is an understatement but I don't want to ruin the surprise) for the groom when we first sat down. I could go on and on but you just have to experience him for yourself. People should get married just to have Dean Hall be there DJ! Do yourself a favor and throw a party next Saturday just so you can experience the fun of Dean Hall!When we first met with Dean, we knew he was going to be an awesome DJ. To be honest, when he showed us the price, we hesitated for only a few minutes then went with our gut and went with him. After the perfect wedding, we would honestly pay him double if we could afford it (I'm not saying you should raise your prices Dean :P).

If I had a re-do for our wedding I would still pick Dean at Ultimate Events. We had so much fun and he did a lot more than just play music. Thank you for being flexible and so easy to work with!

We used Ultimate Events to supply the entertainment at our Wedding on 22nd August and can highly recommend them. Having met with several companies beforehand, it was clear from our initial meeting with Ultimate Events that our DJ was focused on us rather than themselves. All our requirements and requests were taken into consideration so we had nothing to worry about leading up to our wedding. On the day itself, everything ran smoothly and our DJ kept the whole event flowing and kept everyone entertained from start to finish. There was something for everyone. Afterwards, we had so many comments from friends and family saying that they had a great time and commenting that the DJ got it just right. Thanks again to Ultimate Events for giving us a day we'll never forget.Dave & Maria Johnson
