DJ Pembe elevated our event!

Working with DJ Pembe was terrific. He is such a kind and friendly person! Before our event (George Brown College-5 to Watch), he did a site visit to get familiar with the venue/space. He was very professional and arrived early for set up. He brought extra equipment to help elevate our event and was able to set it up in two different locations within minutes. DJ Pembe played for 6 hours for a crowd of about 300 people, which was very impressive! The guests had only positive feedback about him, and his music selection was perfect. I would recommend him to anyone!

DJ of our Dreams

DJPembe did an incredible job at delivering the perfect music throughout our special day. From Ceremony , Cocktail hour and Reception everything was timed perfectly and exactly what we wanted. He was very easy to work with and super responsive. Definitely recommend booking him for any event you may have in the future. Absolutely amazing!

Couldn't have asked for a better DJ/MC!!

It was a last-minute change to include a DJ/MC at our wedding. DJ Pembe was extremely flexible, kind, responsive and all around good vibes! He kept constant communication regarding all aspects of the wedding, asked thorough questions and was keen to clarifications and suggestions. He kept our wedding on track and on schedule with amazing music that fit the style of our backyard rustic wedding. I highly recommend booking with DJ Pembe! It was a great pleasure to have you part of our special day.

Incredible, professional, he's your guy

We were so happy with DJPembe! He hit it out of the park. Despite being from a different cultural background, he knew how to rock a Desi party! He was incredibly professional, timely, and committed to understanding our needs. Honestly, we couldn't recommend DJPembe more!

DJ PEMBE kept the dance floor packed

We hired DJ PEMBE for our wedding on August 2, 2019 at York Mills Gallery. We had contacted a number of potential DJ's and DJ PEMBE was the most professional, quick to reply, asked about our styles and vision for the night, and his prices were inline and very fair.
We were in contact throughout the wedding planning stages and had an in person meeting to finalize the itinerary.
Upon meeting, we felt very confident that he would keep the dance floor packed all night... and he did. He had great recommendations for the cocktail hour and dinner. He mixed the genres seamlessly (Kompa, HipHop, Classic Rock, Slow songs, AfroBeats), and made all the right announcements and introductions. We have had countless guests comment on how awesome our DJ was.

Excellent Service

Jimmy was our DJ for our destination wedding in Huatulco, Mexico. A bit more planning is required when organizing a DJ and equipment to travel on a plane but Jimmy made it effortless for us. He was so accommodating and genuinely interested in the vibe we wanted for our wedding. Jimmy took all our song suggestions as well as giving us many other options/suggestions to choose from. From our ceremony to the cocktail hour to the reception, the music was absolutely perfect for each setting and the dancefloor was packed all night. He truly made our wedding a night to remember!
