    Awesome wedding dj & mc

    DJ Yates was amazing!! He is very communicative and super organized. Our wedding would have not gone as well as it did if it wasn’t for him! He has awesome energy that every wedding needs!! Highly recommend.

    Amazinggggg!

    We secured Ultimate Occasions for our wedding, and we were beyond impressed and appreciative of their professionalism and expertise. The process leading up to the wedding was seamless and precise. There was not a detail missed at all! We were also ecstatic with the way all of the equipment was setup. The DJ booth was an unexpected nice touch! It looked like something that was already built in at the venue. We did not see any wires/cables. Even though speaker stands blended well with our decor. We also reserved the cold sparks and dancing on the clouds which I highly recommend! That was truly the highlight of our night. We also had the package that included a custom gobo that projected our names on the wall…AMAZING! Not to mention the custom service is top tier! Anytime we needed a change, meeting, or phone call, the requests weren’t responded to promptly. Out of any event I had of been to, this was by far the most exceptional entertainment package. Thanks so much Chris for everything!

    Shaleese, your review is absolutely amazing! We had such a fantastic time celebrating Neil's wedding with you. The day was truly unforgettable. We're thrilled that you loved the cold sparks and dancing on the clouds during your spectacular first dance. Thank you so much for choosing us!

    Excellent job!

    Our DJ, Chris Yates, did an excellent job! The app that he used was easy to navigate and Chris was very responsive, flexible and easy to work with. He played music that was perfect for the theme of our reception and I would recommend him to a friend! Thank you, Chris!

    Best day of my life, best DJ EVER.

    Chris was an incredible DJ from start to finish. We had our venue cancel on us a week before our wedding and he was ready to pivot with us. The new venue looked AMAZING the lights were perfect, he played all the songs we put into the vibo app and added his own that went with the whole vibe of our wedding. We had mostly younger couples at our wedding and he crushed it. I had such an amazing time and he prioritized me, the bride, when anyone tried to make a request which was amazing. He was an awesome hype man and amazing MC. He kept to our timeline and made things move so smoothly. Please book him if you’re looking for a wedding DJ. I would hire him again tomorrow if I could.

    Thank you so much Amanda, your wedding was Amazing. So glad I could be apart such special day! I wish you all the best!

    Chris is amazing

    Chris Yates and Ultimate Occasions are AMAZING! We hired Chris for our wedding this past October and he and his partner kept our wedding vibes BUMPING!! We are a multi-cultural couple and Chris was able to play music for everyone. He had all the older people and the younger people dancing on the floor together. We chose to let Chris choose music to play instead of giving him a set playlist and he did an amazing job. Every person who attended our wedding told us that it was me of the most fun weddings they’ve ever been to and that they loved our DJ. Chris was one of my favorite vendors when it came to planning our wedding because he was quick to respond to communications, was open to scheduling a zoom meeting for us to meet, was flexible with me and all my crazy pivots, and he has incredible presence. He is seriously one of the nicest and most understanding people you’ll ever meet and he is excellent at DJing. We will definitely use Chris and Ultimate Occasions for other events in the future and we recommend him 100/10 to anyone needing any kind of entertainment for their event.

    Thank you so much Jordan for the amazing review! I really enjoyed DJing your wedding, I wish you both all the best

    Amazing All Around

    Chris was amazing!! From the first call he made us feel very comfortable and at ease for our big day. He works with you to craft a perfect experience. He also connects well with the crowd and knows how to adjust to those on the dance floor.

    The things he offers for his services are top notch and allow for ease of access to all involved.

    I would recommend him 100%

    DJ, photobooth, uplifting and digital globo

    DJ Yates was the DJ for my wedding on 9/10/22. He was professional and responsive throughout the planning process. I never sat down at my reception, I danced the whole time. The price was reasonable for all the services I received. I would definitely recommend Ultimate Occasions and will use them for future events.

    Easy Planning and an Amazing Night

    Chris was the best option that we could have went with for our wedding. He had an outline for every section that made it very easy for us to plan out the night. He did not need much direction, but he did open it up for us to have as much input as we wanted to have. For the day of, he was extremely professional and was simply amazing. Not a single person was remotely disappointed in what he provided that night. 11/10 recommended for any and all DJ services!!!

    Ultimate Occasions's reply:

    Thank you Edward for the review, your wedding was so much fun and glad I could be apart of the amazing night.

    Fantastic & Fun

    We hired Chris for our daughter's wedding and we very impressed. Chris was constantly in touch with my daughter and her fiance regarding music choices. He was punctual and very accommodating. He brought a lot of life and joy to my daughter's special day! We would hire him in the future!

    Great DJ for our wedding!!

    Chris and his team were very professional and responsive from the moment we contacted him. We were impressed with his professionalism and what he offered us including things we thought we had to go elsewhere for such as uplighting for the reception ( total transformation of the room), lighting for our cake and even photo booth services! He offered us use of a program to organize our wedding music choices called Vibo which was awesome! This technology was through an app that allowed us to communicate exactly what we wanted for our music choices right down to each song we preferred for the pre ceremony through the reception. This was a nice touch and unexpected as we just thought we would provide a list of songs to him but this allowed us improved communication with him and everything went as planned perfectly! The music from our ceremony and reception was what we discussed and he was also an excellent MC if you need an announcer for your reception. Would definitely use him again for future events!

    Thank you Janelle, I really appreciate the review. I had so much fun DJ your Wedding. I wish you and Lawrence all the best!
