What an amazing DJ company. DJ Hype of Hype Entertainment delivers every single time with no equipment failures, follows the timeline precisely without questioning how it's ran or trying to push his agenda because he knows it's all about the couple or the client and delivering amazing music based on their preferences. He gets guests dancing that you would never see dancing for example a couples grandmother has been seen on the dance floor at many of his couple's weddings. I have seen too many times a DJ make the wedding all about themselves and what he wants to play but not this top notch DJ. His equipment is top notch and his DJ abilities are top notch. He keeps the dance floor full all night long and all of my couples complement him every single time. You can't go wrong with DJ Hype for your wedding or event because he is simply the best. Again, he will deliver every single time with great results and you will be 100% satisfied with his DJ'ing and MC'ing abilities.
