Jessica P. Married on 24/02/2022Wow! What an experience!
Collaborating with Pez Productions (both Fayyaz and DJ Johnee Wong), for our recent wedding at Azuridge Estate Hotel, was an incredibly fun and memorable experience from beginning to end! We loved how thorough the forms were in articulating our musical preferences and what we envisioned for different aspects of our wedding day! The Pez team was on the ball with making sure we were all on the same page from beginning to end, and ensured their creativity and unique spin on the musical aspects of the day were on point! Such an enjoyable time was had by all...our guests are STILL raving about the musical vibe and experience, as are we! Thanks again, Fayyaz and Johnee, for an unforgettable day and for spreading your love of music around in a HUGE way! :D

Jonathan F. Married on 24/02/2022Pez exceeded expectations and nailed our wedding music!
From our first contact with Fayyaz from Pez Productions, we knew that we were in good hands for our wedding. There is a reason that they are the best in Alberta and it comes down to passion, preparation and professionalism. Music was my number one concern for our big day and Pez absolutely exceeding our expectations. Starting with an extremely thorough questionnaire that answered all of our questions and let us share our favourite songs, genres, timeline and much more. From there, Fayyaz strategically selected the amazing DJ Johnee Wong, who melded with our musical tastes perfectly. We chatted extensively to Johnee and created a bond that went beyond our shared love for music. At the wedding, Johnee orchestrated a playlist based on my selections that had all of our guests in a good mood, dancing all night long. It was incredible! Johnee was sharp and ready with spontaneous song drops during the night. We'll never forget our special day, perfected by Pez Productions, including lights, sound, cold sparks and amazing tunes. Thank you Pez Productions! -

Anita D. Married on 19/02/2022The Best DJ Services!
Working with pez productions was great though all steps of the process. The questionnaire was in depth and made us feel like the DJ would know exactly what type of group we had and what type of music we wanted to be played. We then had a planning call with Fayez (check this) which was super helpful - he answered all of our questions and gave us lots of good advice (such as timing of first dance vs mother son dance etc). We came out of this call knowing we were in good hands. The day of the wedding we met our DJ, Johnee, who was phenomenal. All of the requested songs were played and his mixing/order of songs/song selection made sure the dance floor was never empty for the entire night. We would recommend Pez Productions to anyone.Pez Productions's reply:
Hi Anita! It is so great to hear from you. Thank you so much for the kind words! Your wedding was so special and the whole team was honoured to be a part of it. DJ Johnee says hello and that he had a blast with your dance party at Azuridge Estate Hotel! We hope our paths cross again soon, and until then, take care! -

Mandi H. Married on 11/12/2021The Best Dance Party
My now-husband and I were a tad worried about having a wedding with 50 people that the dance floor wouldn't be as fun in comparison to a big wedding, but Pez Productions, specifically DJ Johnee made it the best dance party EVER! Everyone couldn't stay off the dance floor and kept raving about the music and fun times. From the initial planning stages to the big day, Fayaaz was incredibly accomodating and gave several helpful tips to ensure the experience was perfect. I would recommend them again and again!Pez Productions's reply:
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review, Mandi! We are so honoured to have been able to help make your day so memorable – thank you so much for letting us celebrate with you! DJ Johnee said that your Venue 308 dancefloor was epic and that you and your guests were so much fun! Thank you for being a part of Team Pez and we hope to see you again soon! -

Thank you for your review, Majken! DJ Johnee had a fantastic time with you and your guests at Silvertip Resort. Thank you for letting us celebrate with you. We hope that you are keeping well and that our paths cross again soon someday! -

Danielle S. Married on 01/02/2020Awesome DJ!
Pez Productions was amazing at our February 1st wedding. The DJ took requests, and kept the dance floor packed all night long. We also got up lights for the room that really added to our elegant feel. HIGHLY recommended :)Pez Productions's reply:
Hi Danielle! Thank you for taking the time to write this review. DJ Nigel had a great time with you and your guests at the Hamptons Golf Course, and he said that your dance floor was on fire! And thank you for appreciating our uplighting – we also believe that lighting is a great way to bring an already amazing event, to a stunning one! Thank you for your kind words and we hope to get to see you again soon! -
![George]()
George B. Married on 08/12/2019A true professional DJ
We had our wedding in Banff in the winter, and it was a destination wedding (we are from the US). Hiring a DJ from afar is hard, it's hard to know what you're really getting. Pez, right from the start, was very professional. They gave us a complete quote, no questions, no ambiguities, and it seemed like a great value. It just got better from there.
We felt that the DJ assigned to us, Josue "DJ Swav", was a great match. He worked with us to create a detailed and very complete concept on the vibe we wanted to create throughout our day. He created awesome lighting for us, he was respectful about our requests and "do not play" list, he offered suggestions based on his experience, the list goes on.
He was a true DJ at the reception...mixing, responding to the crowd, not just pressing play for the next song. He constantly checked in with us about volume, song choices, direction for next songs, etc. He also created the evening and the party we wanted without taking it over.
Too often at weddings I see DJs trying to make the reception into their own club, with the DJ as the headliner. Too much time on the mic, trying to have too much control over the crowd and their dancing/involvement. Again, Josue created an awesome party for us that really everyone enjoyed, with music that so many people commented on following the wedding, without being overbearing. His professionalism, friendly personality, and flawless work was all so appreciated.
I think DJs are one of the vendors that are sometimes hard to predict. You can't book a trial dance party the way you can have cake tastings or makeup trials. But if you have any hesitations about hiring Pez, DON'T. We were so pleased and very grateful.Pez Productions's reply:
Thank you so much for your review, George! DJ Josue had a blast at your wedding and LOVED how energic your group was. And we respect your appreciation for a live mix, which is something that Pez Productions prides ourselves in with all of our DJs. Thank you for letting us be a part of your wedding day and journey at the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise. It was a highlight for us and Josue for sure! -

Bree Married on 12/10/2019Dance Party!
We had such a fun time at our wedding!! Nigel did such a good job at keeping the music light and fun during our dinner, and then kept the party going all night. We had prompted him with some songs that we knew would get people on the dance floor, and once everyone started dancing - they didn’t stop! As a bride, my dress was big and obtrusive on the dance floor, but I didn’t care! I loved the music and had such a fun time dancing the entire night away with my guests! Thank you guys! Bree and SamPez Productions's reply:
Hi Bree! Thank you for your review! And thank you for bringing up dinner music as well as dancefloor music. It is important to us to have music through dinner that keeps conversations going, and we make sure to have it so that there are no sound gaps between dinner, speeches, and Formal Dances. And we are so happy to hear that you danced the night away at the Hamptons Golf Course! If you can dance all night in a wedding dress, you can dance through anything! DJ Nigel says hello and we wish you all best! -

Married on 31/08/2019Disappointed after High Reviews
This vendor was highly recommended online and by a friend, so we were disappointed with the service. Leading up to the event, they were professional and prepared in asking questionnaires and providing phone interviews. The day of, we had a last minute switch of DJ which I believe was the cause of poor quality because he was unable to properly prepare. Questionnaires seemed not to be used as a result. The company tried to play it off like there was not a last minute change. I did not appreciate the lack of honesty. So disappointed since music was an important factor to our day! I believe our DJ did the best he could under the circumstances, so my disappointment lies with the company and not the DJ himself. -

Hm Fucanan Married on 24/08/2019Exceeded Expectations as a Professional DJ!
Fayyaz and Pez Productions brought the spark, high energy, and exceeded expectations at our wedding held in the Fairmont Palliser - Calgary, AB. DJ Fayyaz had a passionate way of captivating our emotions on the dance floor that bonds our memories to the music. My Wife and I focused on three main requests: music that plays into the energy of our guest, lighting that complements the formal features of our reception venue, and DJ stage presence where the dance floor comes to life as if we were in a nightclub. The professionalism is evident in their prompt responses via phone/email, spot-on recommendations, attention to details, and working within our wedding timelines. The communication was open, direct, and all of our questions answered directly if not already within their questionnaire. We were impressed by their ability to collaborate with our wedding vendors and meet our specific request (use of a fog machine during our first dance, two large projector screen canvas for our videos/slideshows, provided mics/lighting for our emcee/speakers/vocalist/dancers, monogram dance floor projection, and light-up DJ booth that covered the tech which made for a polished look that matched Fayyaz formal attire). He expertly managed the energy of the crowd, transitioned between cultural and modern music flawlessly, and professionally interjected when an impromptu moment was needed.
Overall, Pez Productions expertise and experience shows, and DJ Fayyaz has been a pleasure to work with. From beginning to the end, you made our night one to remember. We look forward to enjoying your company at future events and will highly recommend your top-notch services at future events.
Sincerely,
Mark & PreetPez Productions's reply:
Wow! Thank you so much for this amazing review, Mark and Preet! DJ Fayyaz had the best evening with you and your group, and it was so obvious how much attention to detail you two put into the planning of your evening at The Fairmont Palliser. We were so excited to get to use essentially all of our effects with you! The way that lighting, sparklers, fog machines, and a clean/crisp/cool looking DJ booth light up a space is incredible! And we appreciate you for knowing and noticing that. We love a great club-like dance party, and we are thrilled to hear that DJ Fayyaz nailed the fusion style music. We really hope to see you two and your guests again soon! Until then, take care!
