Picking Jeff as our DJ was our easiest wedding decision — which was a welcome relief among so many decisions. Music was the biggest thing my husband was interested in for the wedding and his interactions with Jeff got him excited about wedding planning. I interviewed 4 other DJs and none of them came close to the quality service or value of price that Jeff did. Every other DJ was a scripted phone call, or I felt that they didn’t actually listen to my information or questions. I met Jeff in person and could tell instantly he was our DJ. He was personable, flexible in meeting time (I was coming from out of state), and came prepared. He already had a list of questions ready to better understand what we wanted, walked me through his process, showed me his paperwork (which you can start working on immediately after booking, was super helpful for us). He took the time to get our details right and connect to us as a couple. He was always early, prepared (complete with backups), and integrated smoothly with the other vendors. We were a smidge delayed from photos and he checked in with us in a way that kept us relaxed and kept things fun for the guests. The way dinner and photos were structured could have been a big boring gap in our reception, if he hadn’t helped us figure out how to fill that time with interaction and then executed it perfectly. Our guests really liked his personality and that our favorite songs were played on the dance floor. The lights made the party!!! Other DJs were charging double his prices for less quality equipment and service, so the value can’t be matched. Definitely recommending Apex to all!

My husband and I were trying to plan a wedding/reception while living away from Louisville. We had to do everything via phone and email. Then COVID-19 hit. We changed our venue. We decided to go ahead and get married and just have a reception. Kenny was absolutely amazing to work with. He was with us the entire way. He continually reassured us that him and his team would 100% be there and do anything they could to make it a great day (minus breaking the law!). He was responsive and thorough. I would use him over and over again, if I needed DJ services often at least! We also got the selfie station from him and my friends said it was best kind of photo booth they had ever seen! Now the day of the reception came. He was on time (maybe even early). He had spoken to everyone who was speaking ahead of time and made sure everything would go smoothly. He came and introduced himself to me and said he had it all taken care of. He communicated very well thru the entire evening... even at the worst part of the night... last call. He seemed like an old friend. Even to the point where my sister thought we had already met and knew each other well. He's personable and considerate. We all know there's those people who want to request songs or even karaoke. He made the point to come and ask us first which we really appreciated! His entire team was fantastic. If you want a smooth sailing wedding/reception use him. He has a 100% satisfaction guarantee and he backs it up! Thank you Kenny and team!

HiMotive Entertainment & Photobooth did a great job keeping our wedding reception fun and upbeat. While their communication was a bit delayed leading up to the event, they were ultimately effective in executing on the day-of. The DJ kept the party going all night with a good song selection, though they did play 3 Taylor Swift songs in a row at the start, which we would have preferred more variety. The MC's ad-libs got a little overbearing at times, but overall they did a nice job sticking to the schedule and making important announcements. We'd recommend HiMotive to other couples looking for an energetic DJ.

Booking a DJ was perhaps one of the wedding decisions I was most nervous about because I have been to too many weddings with boring/cringey DJs. In my opinion, a DJ can make or break the experience for your guests. Niko made the experience a blast for us and for our guests, start to finish! We had just under 100 guests, very much a mix of older folks who didn't interact with the dance floor much, and friends who were on the dance floor all night. Niko did a perfect job of playing exactly what we wanted, and reading the crowd to adjust the vibe and keep the energy going. I'll never forget ending the night on a high note with Pink Pony Club and a circle of our closest friends dancing to the very end with us. He also did great with the transitions and announcements throughout the night and kept our night running smoothly. Niko has the whole planning process very well organized with consultation meetings and playlist brainstorming. His communication was professional, warm, inclusive, and organized. We loved working with Niko and cannot recommend enough!
