Made the wedding perfect

We use this company for both our DJ as well as a photo booth which hit off with everyone so well. The DJ kept the dance floor full the whole night long and was super good with communication. The photobooth was also full for the 2 hours that it was up being used and after week I have photo album electronically that I can now review

They keep the party going

Filander was the absolute best DJ we could have asked for. He goes the extra mile to make sure that you're comfortable and happy with what he's providing. We had a number of cultural songs and he did his homework to make sure it all blended seamlessly. Also Daysi was a top-tier coordinator who made the chaos of the day feel like a breeze.

Great Music

United Entertainment is very organized and professional and played good music! Their online planning portal was amazing! You fill out your wedding timeline so everybody is on the same page on what is happening. The music was very dance worthy and didn't play anything that we didn't want. So much fun!

Best Vibes

If you know, you know - Daysi is your wedding coordination fairy godmother.

Weekly meetings in the month ahead of our wedding gave us time to share our vision  and predict/prepare for potential pain points.

Daysi is a joy to work with - super calm while seemingly being several places at once on the day.

Her ever expanding knowledge of special event scenarios was invaluable in our preparation. On the day both of us as bride and groom felt reassured, happy and prepped for most possible scenarios. If you want to get married as stress free as possible, United has your back!

---

We had the distinct honour and pleasure in having Filander as our DJ/MC. Everything was personalized - nothing felt cookie cutter. Filander knows how to bring the energy and brought the best out of our guests.

Going above and beyond - he personally checked in on us throughout the night, regarding music, reception flow, and anything else we needed.

Filander was also very willing to get invested in any games, quirky activities we wanted, and the impromtu crowdwork.

The preparation is evident throughout. The equipment, sound checks, setup and teardown were balanced and seamless. We had the added bonus that United Entertainment is the recommended vendor of our venue at Willow Springs Winery. The partnership with the venue shows: Shauna, Daysi, Filander and Michael are all fantastic people and their experience together make them a super team for wedding coordination.

Our wedding reception couldn’t have been better!

Our entire experience with United Entertainment was excellent! Filander organized a few meetings with us to help us decide what we wanted, we had no idea other than we needed music for our wedding day. The response time was very quick and always respectful. DJ Arda was amazing all of our guests were blown away, he played as many song requests from our guests as much as he could and still played what we requested! He also suggested last minute ideas which I completely forgot about which was very helpful. Very nice man and nice team. A few guests asked for their contact information afterwards. Highly recommend this team!

Mother of the Groom viewpoint!👍🏼

During and after my son’s wedding on Sept 29/2023 we received so many compliments about the music, wedding organizer, and photo booth. Big thanks and appreciation for everything you did Filander and crew.
It started off in the brides room when one of the bridesmaids needed an alteration on her dress and the wedding organizer, Anna, pulled out a sewing kit and fixed her dress! Then, Filander himself prepped the whole wedding party and gave us all a big pep talk before we entered the venue which I really do helped set the mood for a very fun wedding!🎊 Everyone loved the photo booth and the picture quality from that booth was incredible and instant! The bride and groom got a full set and every guest in the pics got one too!
Guests told me they requested songs and Filander accommodated them and also made sure the bride and grooms choices were there of course.
The day was so busy and only afterwards did we truly realize how great and important the music was for the outdoor ceremony and of course the party inside.
We would highly recommend Filander and his crew! Thank you sooo much United Entertainment for all your effort, true caring attitude and of course amazing sound thru the entire Big Day!!

Best of the best !!

There are truly no words for the United Team other then, hire them immediately !!!
Filander, Daysi & team are unmatched. I had the best experience working with them to have my Wedding vision come to life. I used their DJ (Filander & Julian), month of coordination (Daysi), photo booth (Jordan) & lighting services. All perfection. Not only are they professional and amazing at their craft- but they are also just genuinely amazing human beings. Spending the wedding day with them gave us the ability to relax (because we knew we were in great hands), but it also added so much joy and fun on a friendship level.
Add them to your vendor list, you will not be disappointed!
Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts. We appreciate you so much!

Exceptional experience and services🥹

Filander was truly exceptional in the way he handled the wedding day from start to finish. He took the initiative to hold meetings as we got closer to the wedding date, made sure we were in line with everything, was always punctual, and even prepared for the worst! Any other DJs would have went with whatever sound system at the venue but he took it upon himself to make sure it was perfect. He advised us of any forthcoming issues with the solutions already in hand. My friend who sang during the ceremony told me that she never worked with a better DJ of the countless weddings she’s been to as a singer. She was thoroughly impressed with the level of organization, skills, and professionalism that she would hire him for any of her future events. Filander was not only the DJ but also an MC for the reception and we could not have made a better decision. Filander recognized that our venue coordinator was not providing the services that were promised and for the mort part, nowhere to be seen. Filander took it upon himself to step up and cover for the shortcomings of our venue onsite coordinator and thank goodness that he did. The reception went flawlessly and my husband and I were at such ease knowing everything was in good hands. Things Filander told us of at the wedding and resolved on his own, we heard from the onsite coordinator many minutes later. We were so lucky to have Filander with us for our special day. He truly lit up the dance floor with all the bangers as my husband and I relived our glory days. My husband and I cannot thank you enough for such an amazing job. We will most definitely be spreading the word. UNITED DJ FOR ALL YOUR EVENTS!!! 🥳🥳🥳
