    So accommodating and professional!

    Had the pleasure of hiring Hot Wax for our wedding on Oct. 1, 2022. Elliott was incredibly easy to work with and helped make sure all of our music was passed along to the DJ, Mike. Elliott help make our vision of the photobooth come to life as we had a very particular idea but it turned out better than we imagined. Our guests absolutely loved it. DJ Mike was excellent. He played our songs exactly when he was supposed to like a professional and followed along to our very detailed list throughout the entire event. Lianne who ran the photobooth is full of positive and great energy. She made sure our guests were well taken care of throughout the entire event. Couldn't say anything else other than it was tremendous and I would highly recommend them!

    Hot Wax Entertainment's reply:

    Jordan, thank you for sharing your Hot Wax experience. Our goal is to showcase your distinctive taste and style in all our offerings. We are thrilled to hear that both our team members, Lianne and DJ Mike were a great fit for you, Adrianna and your guests. They truly love what they do, and they do it well!
    Thanks for trusting us by letting us try out new ideas with the photobooth. Judging by the pics, your guests loved it!
    Thank you for choosing Hot Wax Entertainment.
    Wishing you all the best as Mr. & Mrs.!

    Great DJ/MC service!

    We are glad we chose Hot Wax to provide DJ/MC services for our wedding. Elliott and his team were very prompt with their responses to the many questions my husband and I had. We are impressed with their organization skills as they asked us to provide songs for every moment of the ceremony and reception, as well as an itinerary of the wedding day. With those in place, they created a very magical and fun time for us and our guests. Shout out to Ward, who was our DJ and MC for the ceremony and reception; he was very professional and accommodating with last-minute changes. Thanks Hot Wax!

    Hot Wax Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you Leslie for sharing your experience. We are thrilled to hear that the systems we've set in place helped you stay organized and on track. We are constantly improving our forms/information so that it's seamless for all parties. And isn't DJ Ward wonderful? Thanks for the shoutout, we think he's amazing too.
    Thank you for choosing Hot Wax. Wishing you all the best as Mr. & Mrs.

    Best DJ service!!!

    Elliott and Mike were awesome to work with! Elliott was incredible at communication and always replied to my requests and emails within a few hours! Mike came in on the day of the wedding and knew exactly where he needed to be and when to be there without being asked. He introduced himself, confirmed timelines, and engaged with our guests perfectly! Not only did Mike do an amazing job as a DJ, he also saved one of our guests lives. Our guest had passed out during the ceremony and Mike was so quick to run over and perform first aid with this guest. We could not suggest a better DJ service than this for your future event!

    Hot Wax Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you Michelle for your rave reviews. When we say our DJ's go above and beyond, we aren't kidding! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the communication between yourselves and Elliott. As this is all we do, we are at your service. We hope your guest has had a full recovery. Thank you for choosing Hot Wax Entertainment. Wishing you both all the best as Mr. & Mrs.

    Professional and On point. Awesome DJ!

    Hotwax was a great choice for our wedding! Our DJ Ward looked after the entire event including the preceremony, ceremony, supper and reception/dance. He read the crowd perfectly and played our requested music at all the right times. Highly recommend Hot Wax for any event requiring a DJ.

    Hot Wax Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you John for your feedback! We are so happy to hear that DJ Ward was a great fit for you and your guests. He is definitely detail oriented and loves to entertain. Thank you for choosing Hot Wax to entertain you and your guests. Wishing you all the best as Mr. & Mrs.!

    Great time!

    Hot Wax took care of our ceremony and reception music. They played all the songs we requested for our entrances, walks down the aisle, etc. They also were EXCELLENT at matching the music to the mood of the crowd, and playing a range of songs to please our friends and our parents and family :)

    Thank you Denise for your rave review! We agree! We feel that our DJ's are exceptional at reading the crowd as we strive to have your guests rave to you for weeks, months even years later.

    Amazing Wedding DJ!

    This is the go to DJ vendor for your wedding!

    Our experience with Elliott was spectacular, he would always make sure that we were comfortable and happy with the plan that we had discussed. And once the plan was confirmed, he brought in our DJ (Mike) and fully explained the details to him.

    We had also decided to make our wedding a tad more confusing by incorporating Iranian music at certain cues, and not only did Elliott and Mike work with us beforehand to make sure it was all correct, Mike executed the plan meticulously!

    We couldn't have been more pleased with how it all turned out, thanks to this crew. They truly care about the wedding process and their clients!

    Hot Wax Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you Paria for your spectacular review! When clients book Hot Wax for their events, they don't just hire us as a DJ for what we do, but really for what we know. With our company, you get a team. We are thrilled that you were able to rely on our process and as you can see, communication is the key. Our collective goal is to have you and your guests rave about your experience for weeks, months, even years later! Thank you for choosing Hot Wax Entertainment. You were a pleasure to work with.
    Wishing you all the best as Mr. & Mrs.!

    Best Customer Service Ever

    Elliott and the HotWax team are FANTASTIC! He was always available to have a chat and willing to accommodate any special requests that we had. DJ Mike at the wedding was also amazing and was responsive with all our guests in their song requests. He kept the party going and everyone had a great time ripping up the dance floor! Their party lights are also super cool. Honestly, this team is incredibly friendly and wants your day to be amazing and they will work with you to build the day as you hope for with as little stress as possible. They sent a form with a list of information of all the possible things they would need to know... thank you all so much for making the day so amazing!

    Hot Wax Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you Chirag for your kind words. Our goal is to create an event that will create memories to last a lifetime!
    As we operate Hot Wax on a fulltime basis we have created solid systems in place that assist our clients in a seamless way. We invest in our equipment and are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the lighting. Those little things can add so much fun. We are proud of our DJ's and feel that our team truly cares to bring your vision to life!
    Thank you for choosing Hot Wax! Wishing you all the best as Mr. & Mrs.
