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.

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!

If we had to do it all again, we'd choose United Entertainment!

If we could rate United Entertainment more than 5 stars, we definitely would! We had the most wonderful experience working with Filander and his team on our wedding day in September 2022. United Entertainment was a preferred vendor at our wedding venue, and we know exactly why. Filander and his team are professional, efficient, knowledgable, and are just simply the nicest people you will ever meet! Along with DJ services, we also hired United for day-of coordination and their photo booth.

In the months leading up to the wedding, Filander was a great resource to us and was so helpful in providing his honest and thoughtful input. My husband and I planned most of the wedding ourselves with the help of our family and friends, so his guidance was so valuable. It was evident that he had a lot of experience in the field, and we immediately felt like we were in good hands. Filander and our day-of coordinator Daysi, really helped us navigate our very busy schedule and reception program. Our families and bridal party all agreed that their presence truly helped the day go so smoothly. It felt as if we knew them for much longer than the few months (and for Daysi, the few days) leading up to our wedding!

Filander was such a great DJ and had no trouble hyping up our guests. Daysi was well organized and was so quick to resolve any issues that had come up that day. The photo booth was a hit with our guests and the attendant Julian was so accommodating all throughout the night.

Filander was very open to customizing each and every service to our unique needs and his team played such a big part in making our wedding reception an absolute dream. Thank you United Entertainment for helping to make our special day so memorable - truly a night we’ll never forget and will cherish for the rest of our lives.

An absolutely outstanding DJ & team!

Filander is very responsive, easy to reach, courteous and accommodating. He is simply one of the kindest, best DJ’s around — bar none. No wonder he gets so many word-of mouth referrals!! Book your DJ. Book Filander before he runs out of dates to give you!.

10.22.22 wedding

We had the pleasure of having United Entertainment coordinate, DJ and emcee our wedding along with providing a photo booth. To say we love this company is an understatement. They understand the assignment and provide a service unlike any other Entertainment company. We wouldn't have had any other entertainment company be with us on our special day. Their level of care and professionalism cannot be beat. Thank you again United Entertainment for making our special day that much more special.

Fantastic experience with United Entertainment DJ!

We had the pleasure of Filanders' services last night for our wedding. To get straight to the point; BOOK HIM. His level of dedication to making our evening happen the way we planned was above and beyond. He communicated openly and honestly and provided easy suggestions on how to get the desired vision for our event. He had our guests out of their chairs busting moves, our speakers/speeches flowing smoothly and a steady stream of communication to the venue on all other aspects of the evening.

My wife and I would book him again for any future event without hesitation. Period.

Thank you Filander, and United Ent.

-Chris & Julianne - Eagles Nest Wedding July 22, 2022.
