Megan Fletcher
I can't recommend DJ Ivan enough!! He lit up the dance floor at my wedding ALL NIGHT.. nobody wanted him to leave at 2am!
Right from the start he made me feel at ease. He sent me multiple spread sheets to fill out with all of my wedding information so he was updated and knew what to expect. We had a phone call a week before so we could go over any last minute changes and confirm the schedule. He showed up early, making sure that he was prepared and gave himself time to relax before the reception stared. He was very courteous, friendly, and played all of the right music to keep the party going! I've never been to a wedding before where the dance floor was FULL until 2am in the morning. Ivan will be the only DJ we use going forward. Highly highly highly recommend!!!

DJ
He came as a DJ for our high school semi-formal. He did an amazing job and everyone had an unforgettable experience that night. The song choices were appropriate for a school event, yet fit the situation extremely well. Our student council which organized the event got numerous compliments and we would like to forward the thanks to the DJ who played a huge part in it! He was very patient with our student council's amateurishness and many issues as well. Not just as a DJ, but as a person, our DJ was an extremely nice, caring and understanding person. If I were to recommend a DJ for a future event for someone else, Disc Jockeys Unlimited would be my #1 choice. More...

Kim Nguyen
Wedding DJ
We were very thankful to have DJ Ivan at our wedding. He did a great job of managing people's requests and keeping the party going. He also took videos of our reception and sent it to us afterwards which was a lovely surprise (especially while waiting on our official photos)! He was very professional to work with and prompt to respond back to emails. His prices are very reasonable considering the quality of his work and company! Thank you so much Ivan for helping make our day so great! More...

Shari MacKay
Ivan rocked our party! He had all the ladies up on the dance floor and was playing all the right tunes for the crowd. For my parents 50th wedding anniversary we had guests in their teens to guests in their 80's and he was able to keep everyone loving the music. He is a true professional from equipment, to customer service to knowing the crowd. Thank you Ivan! We will have you back for our next party! More...

Kate Maxwell
DJ
We hired Disc Jockeys Unlimited to be our wedding DJ and we 100% recommend you hire them for yours! Ivan was great. The website that you're sent well before your date to make song selections is super easy to use. Ivan met with us over the phone to discuss everything a week before. Ivan was also our master of ceremonies and he did a great job introducing speeches and making announcements. Always got the crowd laughing. Thanks Ivan for being such a big part of our big day!!

Marco
I give Ivan 5 stars because his professional aaritude and his expertise is what made this Halloween party a huge success for us. ... We are so happy with the way he handled the night allowed our guest to request their favorite songs.. but most of all he had a way to figure this crowd out and play the right music to get them all up a d dancing. We will recommend Disc Jockeys Unlimited from now on. We have hired DJ's before but this is the first time that the majority of our guest gave us a thumbs up for the DJ.. More...

What’s the secret to keeping a party dancing all night long?
Preparing in advance a playlist around the guests music preference, playing all of the right music to keep the party going!
Knowing when to use the microphone to hype the audience!
Quote from Tyler Chris: "Our guests were dancing all night! Ivan played music of all decades and genres so that people of all ages could enjoy the music. Their only complaint, they had sore feet by the end of the night!"
How would you describe your ‘style’?

What do you love most about your job?
Being a DJ is my life, not just what I do for a living!
I spend a great deal of my spare time preparing my music list for each special occasion I work on, helping to make each event deeply memorable.
I am a very intuitive DJ with over 30 years of experience in the entertainment industry.
I also speak french and english fluently.
From the pre-planning stages to the last song played, I am equipped to create either a party feel or a more laid-back scene.
You can provide me with your own playlist or I can creatively be guided to develop one that is uniquely suited to your occasion; designed to appeal to your guests’ age range, preferred genres, and cultural diversity.
I am 'play-full', professional, reliable, with a fun and energetic personality.
I have the motivation, drive, intuitive gift and experience to inspire a great time for all.
I loves to set the stage for people to have a joyful experience, while also providing the best customer service and reliable professionalism.

Karaoke Hosts
Our karaoke hosts and MCs are experienced, friendly, reliable, and dressed for the occasion. They will bring the equipment required for a fun night of singing, give you all of the input you would like, and help you to make the event run smoothly.
On the night of the event, the karaoke host will have several copies of what songs are available and a signup sheet for the singers to write down the songs they want to sing.
Don’t know the words to your favourite song? No problem, we will also provide a monitor so the singers can see the words to the songs. In the case of a duet, the lyrics will show up as a different colour for each singer with two microphones provided by the karaoke host.
For those clients who wish to have a larger screen so that the words can be seen by the rest of the guests, an additional TV or a projector and screen can be arranged.
If you’re worried you may not have a singing crowd, we can arrange to have a karaoke host there who is also an experienced DJ entertainer. Should the karaoke slow down, you can still dance the night away.
Dance lighting and special effects like fog can also be added in to help create the desired environment.
Whatever the party, we do it right!
