Molly & Anthony

DJ Haymaker was both the MC and DJ at my wedding June 2017. From the moment he answered my call when I was just looking for quotes, I knew he was the perfect fit for my wedding. Moving closer to the date, it was easy to coordinate the details even though I am in Vancouver and he is in Kelowna. He gave …

Tim & Amber Anderson

In the last two months before our wedding we were debating on whether to spend money on getting a DJ for our wedding or save money and do an iPod playlist.

I was absolutely stressed about…

Chris and Dorise

We are so happy we chose Jeff as our DJ for our recent wedding
June 28 2026. Jeff is highly organized, personable and focused on exceeding everyone’s expectations. We had our own MC but he helped as needed because of his 15+ years of experience..
He knows how to get a party started and keep it going ….
He’s an entertainer in a league of his own, disco ball, lights and full of action !!
He’s dynamic and genuinely interested in creating a fun and truly memorable day not only for the bride and groom but for all the guests as well.
We will be recommending DJ Haymaker to anyone we know thats preparing a special event.
You’re the best, Chris and Dorise

READ MY FULL PHILOSOPHY

You’re inviting your favorite people from all over the world — they deserve an amazing celebration. We set a clear outcome (so-worth-the-trip, so-you-two, best-ever) and reverse-engineer the moments that create it.
