We worked with Active Entertainment for our wedding at 128 South, and our DJ Shawn was absolutely incredible. He handled everything—ceremony music, mics for the officiant and readings, cocktail hour, dancing, lighting, and MCing—and did it all flawlessly. Shawn totally understood our vibe. He followed our must-play and do-not-play lists to a tee and added his own creative touches and fun mixes that fit perfectly. He kept the energy up all night. The dance floor was packed the entire time—people didn’t want to leave! Our friends & family are still talking about how amazing the music was. There were so many special moments, but one standout was that Shawn filmed our private last dance and sent it to us after the wedding. It was such a thoughtful surprise and something we’ll treasure forever. We can’t recommend Active Entertainment enough. Truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding and our day would not have been as amazing without Shawn!

James was the DJ for my wedding just two weeks ago! Going into the planning process, I knew Born to DJ because James also did my sister's wedding. He is one of the only DJ's I know that constantly reads the crowd. If he can tell people aren't liking a song, he will change it to keep everything lively. I wanted my wedding day to be a huge party, and I really wanted people dancing for the majority of it. That is not an easy thing to do but I have seen James keep people dancing and engaged at my sister's wedding and now mine. The planning couldn't have been easier, and I always felt reassured after speaking with him. Born to DJ couldn't have done better and I highly HIGHLY recommend them.

I don’t have enough good things to say about DJ Obehi! As a professional dancer, obviously I’m a firm believer that the DJ can make or break a dance floor, and DJ Obehi absolutely MADE IT!

The whole process of booking with him was so smooth and easy, and he definitely has an amazing reputation out there - even the ABC license people had heard of him and told me he was the best and they were jealous!

jB JAMS excells in providing romantic, personal, fun and memorable wedding celebrations with your wishes in mind! We will work together to create your ULTIMATE wedding day using your wishes and visions combined with our extensive wedding experience!

I was the bride that wanted to cut corners and do it myself. I am so glad my father booked Sue even though I protested. Upon our first meeting, I realized what all goes into a wedding MC and DJ and that I would NOT have been able to do it myself. Sue saw I didn't have a clue and effortlessly took over the reigns and the pressure from my shoulders. jB Jams has received many awards in their field and there is a reason, they are professional, catering, and have great relations with the venues in our area, which is a huge help. Sue was very familiar with my venue and my wedding coordinator and they were able to work together easily and saved me so much hassle. Sue sent me a survey to complete and in turn used those answers to totally cater the wedding to us and our love story. I was adamant I did not want a typical, cheesy, cringey, boring wedding and Sue delivered! From helping us with the processional, to the announcements, the games, and the music-my 28 person wedding (Covid!) was my total dream wedding and she is a big reason for that. Sue really gave us special attention and care, by the end she felt like family! All my guests (including some wedding crashers) loved our wedding and raved about it. My family looks forward to working with jB Jams again the next time we have an event. Book 'em! The best money you will spend on your wedding.

Not a single person was sitting at the tables while the Dickens were on the stage. They were very interactive with the crowd and even let the groom (a guitar player) get up there and jam out with them. This was such a fun addition to the wedding and we loved every minute of it!

Growning up on his father’s eclectic combination of soul music (Frankie Beverly & Maze , Erykah Badu), Funk (Parliament, Marvin Gaye), synth-infused 80s music (Depeche Mode, Gary Numan)… all which became infused with his own love for both hip-hop and video game music, DJ Motiv ended up with quite a mixed spectrum of musical influence. Today, this translates into sets where he picks apart and infuses together all the pieces of this music that he loves best.

Dj Motiv KILLED it. He definitely knows how to read the crowd not only that he also knows how to bring the life of a party . Would be using him again in the future.
