Recently used Epic Events for my wedding photography and videography. I used Alex and his team and they were all amazing. I hate taking photos for extended periods of time and him and his team made it fun, as quick as possible, and easy. I still haven’t received photos back but I saw a quick preview the day of my wedding and they looked incredible which makes me so excited. I also used their sparklers at my reception which were AWESOME and I used their open air photo booth which I sort of got to customize and it was amazing. Definitely recommend them for any of your events.

Epic events were nothing short of amazing! They were with us for our wedding day for DJ, MC, photo, video, and photo booth. Justin was our main contact for planning, he was with us every step of the way. From day one he took the time to explain what they offer and met with us at our venue to show us what they are able to do. He even took extra time as the wedding got closer with a long phone call on a Sunday to go over everything we should have for the wedding. Music at the wedding had everyone on the dance floor all night long. Alejandro and the team of photo and videographers were Amazing as well. My husband and I are quite awkward in photos and they made us feel comfortable and had us laughing all day. Alejandro is also great at keeping time so we would not be late to the venue. We loved every moment of our wedding day and EPIC Events were such a big part, The whole team is just wonderful!

Epic Events is THE BEST THERE IS. Mike and Justin were with us every step of the way and made us feel like our wedding was going to be an absolutely perfect day...which it was!!! We were originally booked for May 2020 and due to COVID, we were postponed until May 2021. They were very understanding and assured us we would still have the most epic day ever (they really live up to their name)!!! I can not say enough good things about this team. Every single person worked to make sure our wedding day was perfect! Our photographers were amazing!!! Making sure we got every single shot we wanted, while still having time to enjoy our day! The dance floor was PACKED THE ENTIRE NIGHT!!!! The DJ, Matt, read the room so well, our guests are still talking about how much fun it was and how he was the best DJ they've heard at a wedding! Do not even bother looking anywhere else, just book Epic Events right now if you want to have an awesome event!!!!

I would highly recommend Justin and his team at Epic Events. They recently created a day we will always remember for our son's Bar Mitzvah. Justin is a highly skilled and professional event coordinator. His team, including the DJ and Emcee, connected beautifully with our guests and created a fun, energetic atmosphere for the entire family. Justin attended to every detail both ahead of the event and throughout the event to ensure that the party ran smoothly and successfully from start to finish. His reassurance and expert advice throughout the planning process was priceless. Thank you Epic Events! We can't wait to work with you again in the future!

Mike, Justin and the rest of the crew were absolutely amazing. My husband and I just got married May 14th after having our date changed 3 times due to covid, and these guys made it worth the wait. People are still talking about how much fun they had at our wedding. It was also amazing how easy and organized the day was. I cannot recommend these guys enough, they really exceeded our expectations! Justin kept everyone engaged and having an awesome time. Mike and I had been in touch for years because all of the set backs but like I said they made everything go off with ease. Another thing that really made our day amazing is how much thought they put into everything. My father is a retired police officer that was apart of 9/11, he and Mike spoke a bit about it. Without saying a word to us they changed our up lighting for free to blue in honor of that. Now when we look back at pictures we realize just how special that was. From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU GUYS! I will absolutely be recommending Epic!
