We had our wedding 3/21/25 and Jason from energy event group made it a breeze!! We were very pleased and satisfied with having them. We had multiple meetings over the phone for planning, which led to great organization for the day of. We also added on the Photo Booth which was definitely a hit!! Everyone loved. It’s set up so that guests can send the picture right to their phone to keep. We also got a copy of everyone’s photos they took a few days after to look through, so fun! The lighting for the Photo Booth was SPECTACULAR! I also loved that Jason had tricky/creative ways to get people back onto the dance floor to keep the party going. Jason listened to what we wanted and did not want through the planning portion and carried it successfully through the reception.

AMAZING! That is the only way we can describe Jason's work with EEG. We literally couldn't have done it without him! He is more than "just a DJ". He kept our ceremony and reception moving on time and seamless, kept our guests entertained during cocktail hour, (helped us with the best introductions) kept guests engaged during dinner and then through the night! When I think back to our dance there was not a moment someone wasn't dancing! He is one of those DJ's that make it hard to leave the floor because he just keeps it going and reads the crowd!!

Jason was absolutely amazing from the time I booked with him, to the wedding day. He answered any questions I had and offered a ton of good ideas. It is clear there is a reason people say he’s the best, because he is! He kept our guests entertained the entire time and his over all calm demeanor made it very easy to trust him. I am very much so a “I’ll do it myself” person, so it’s challenging for me to trust that someone is going to do something to the standards I would, but Jason exceeded my expectations! I cannot recommend him and Energy Events Group enough. I also highly, highly recommend doing cold sparks and dancing on a cloud for your first dance. It was the most magical thing we have ever experienced. Thank you EEG for helping us create the best night of our lives!!

Jason was our DJ for our September 2024 wedding. When I tell you it was an outstanding experience from day 1, I mean it! From the moment we first contacted him, he was incredibly professional, easy to work with, and genuinely excited about helping us create the perfect atmosphere for our big day. We upgraded with cold sparks, dancing on the clouds, glow sticks, and an extra hour of service- completely, 100% worth it! He really does an amazing job at getting to know his clients and catering his service to fit their needs and wants. HIGHLY recommend Jason and Event Energy Group!

We recently had the pleasure of having Jason with Energy Event Group as our DJ for our wedding. We cannot recommend them highly enough. From the very start, they were professional, organized, attentive, and truly understood the vibe we wanted for our special day. The music was perfect and kept everyone dancing all night long. Jason seamlessly blended everything from the pre ceremony selection to the reception. His ability to read the room was very impressive!! So many of our guests commented on how fantastic he was and how much fun was had. If you're looking for a DJ who will make your event unforgettable, look no further. EEG is the DJ!!

We couldn’t be happier that we went with Energy Event Group for our wedding! The booking and planning process was simple, but most importantly our DJ, Darnell, was the best! He was so much fun and kept everyone entertained and dancing. We received compliments from our guests even about how much fun our DJ was. Truly couldn’t have asked for a better DJ! Thanks EEG!

Jason is truly THE BEST in the business!! We booked him for our wedding knowing that he was good, but he went above and beyond to make our day perfect. I’m not exaggerating when I say everyone who has complimented our wedding has commented on how AMAZING he was and how fun the party was because of him! His fun energy even had non-dancers tearing up the dance floor all night and loving it!!
After finding out one of our guests had recently gotten married, Jason made sure to play their first dance song for them. He customized the party to the guests and made it fun for everyone. We especially knew every penny that we spent was worth it, when Jason posted a reel of the first look with my dad and our first look as husband and wife. We weren’t able to get a videographer, but this video was everything we could’ve ever wanted and just another example of how Jason is more than just a DJ.
Thank you Jason and EEG!!

Jason with Energy Event Group was the absolute best entertainer for our big day! He was so easy to work with from the planning, all the way to wedding day! He made us feel so completely as ease during the planning and kept in touch with us. The ideas he gave us made our day go even better, and we would have never thought of them without his help. Our ceremony went so smoothly from the music to the transitions in between songs, Jason nailed it! Our dance was absolutely unforgettable. The energy was so HIGH all night long and we received so many compliments about Jason. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!

I cannot express enough how AMAZING Jason was to work with. The way he worked with us and adapted to how we wanted our reception was spectacular. He answered all of our questions along the way. He kept the night moving smoothly. He accommodated to additional speeches during our reception that were last minute. He kept everyone on the dance floor moving, song selection was on point, never a dull moment with Jason. We’ve had so many compliments even a week after our reception about how amazing Jason was! We could not have had the best night without Jason there that is for sure. Jason definitely knows how to throw a party and keep it going all night long.10/10 would recommend Jason to anyone looking for there DJ!

We cannot recommend Jason enough! He truly cares about each of his couples! In the months leading up to our wedding, he called multiple times to go over our day and made sure we hadn't forgot about anything! I knew I would be able to count on him when our wedding day came around. He helped our reception stay right on our timeline. When it came to the dance, Jason always delivers! He kept the dance floor FULL the WHOLE night!! Everyone had so much fun and we got so much positive feedback from our guests about him as well! We had the best time working with Jason and would recommend him to anyone looking for the best DJ you can get!!

Jason was amazing to work with! Pre-wedding he was timely and helped with planning so our day would go smoothly. He set up all of our ceremony sound system and made sure our officiant and speakers knew exactly what they were doing. Jason then made our wedding reception SO MUCH FUN! He kept dinner, special dances, and speeches on the timeline. He engaged our entire crowd with the auction and during the dance. I cannot recommend Jason enough, he was excellent to work with and he made our wedding day extremely fun and memorable!

WOW! That is what comes to my mind when I look back on our day with Energy Event Group there to help us celebrate. Darnell Pitts was our DJ and he did an amazing job keeping the party going and making sure that everyone was having fun. From the first dance to the last dance of the night our dance floor was lively. Darnell also made us feel like family and definitely kept our wedding party hyped up going into the reception. Energy Event Group is so easy to work with and the service(s) they provide are definitely TOP NOTCH. I cannot recommend them enough!

Jason Yoshino is an exeptional DJ. He kept the night fun and exciting. Got everyone out on the dance floor multiple times! Lots of compliments on how fun and smooth he made the day go. Would recommend him to everyone!
Even tho it was a small wedding and there wasn’t 100s of people he sure had a lot of people of all ages on the dance floor busting moves.
He kept our guest engaged and made for an exciting and memorable night!

I would give Jason 5 thousand stars if I could! We are truly so grateful for Jason and Energy Event Group for making our wedding SUCH a fun night! The music selection was spot on, the transitions were seamless (I literally stopped my parents while walking down the aisle to tell them "wow that was a perfect transition between ceremony songs), and the energy was high all night!
From planning to the wedding day, Jason always made us feel completely at ease. He called us several times throughout our engagement to get to know us and guide us through the process. He was so accommodating with special requests to customize our day to be unique to us. He is so knowledgeable and my best advice is to just trust him. :) Seriously, he knows what he is doing!
We received SO many compliments from our friends and family about how much they enjoyed the music, special moments, and the overall atmosphere. I even had a bridesmaid say that the dinner music was amazing and that she's never even noticed dinner music before at other weddings. So many people told us that they usually don't dance at weddings but ours was just too fun to stay seated! It was so special for us to look around the dance floor and see all of our loved ones having such a great time. After the wedding, we had so much fun talking about how we even had guests dancing that we thought for sure wouldn't step foot on the dance floor!
We seriously had the best day and there were so many moments that we told each other about how impressed we were with Jason. He is so creative and just a pro at what he does. He made our day even more special, memorable, and seamless. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ and we are endlessly grateful. :)

Jason was AMAZING. He worked with us throughout the whole planning process and was a consistent contact for any questions or concerns we had. Jason has worked in the industry for so long and it is so obvious. The order in which things run the smoothest on your big day, which songs to play so the party never stops, how to get all of your guests to interact with you and more. They are so much more than just DJs, they bring in up lighting, light up foam sticks, and had our back when we forgot things. We could not recommend EEG enough, anyone who was at our wedding knows how talented, professional, and committed to your event that they are!

Our dance floor was ALWAYS packed throughout the whole night + he made sure that there was always something going on to get our guests involved! :) THANK YOU JASON! I married the love of my life that day + would relive our wedding day over + over if I could - I guarantee if I would be able to do that Jason would be our DJ EVERY TIME!!

Where do I start? Jason has been a pleasure working with from the very start. He kept in touch, got to know us, and most importantly, listened to what we wanted on our big day. Jason didn’t treat you as “another client,” but a friend in the making. He made my wedding perfect. He interacted with everyone and made sure everything was running smoothly. Like he says, your DJ makes a big difference at your wedding. I have got so many compliments on how fun and awesome Jason was at our wedding. There was never a dull moment. Jason knows the wedding industry and feels the vibe of the crowd. Let me remind you, he was not just sitting in the back but joining the party 🎤 😎
I can’t thank him enough for everything ❤️

We have known Jason for years and have attended many of weddings that he has been apart of. We have the most fun when he has been the DJ and MC - we get disappointed if he isn’t at the wedding we are attending 😉
This being said, it didn’t take much thinking once we got engaged to know Jason was our guy. He was GREAT from the beginning of our planning process. Jason has gone above and beyond for us. We truly couldn’t have had a better wedding day and we know he plays one of the biggest roles in that. Jason knows how to throw a party, I haven’t heard any feedback from my wedding that didn’t include how amazing our DJ was! EEG truly is the best in the biz. Don’t pass up the opportunity to have your biggest and best party by EEG and Jason, you won’t be disappointed!

Throughout planning a wedding, you make many decisions months out from the big day and never hear from those people and businesses again until the month or week of the wedding to confirm the details. With Jason as your wedding DJ, this will not be the case. You will book Jason as your DJ and he will become way more than just your wedding DJ, he will become a friend. He will call and text to meet with you and your spouse to get to know you better. He will sit with you on many calls and listen to what you truly want for your big day. He will not interrupt, he will listen fully and make your dreams come to life. He will interact with you on social media and show that he wants to know you deeper than just being another client. Jason is knowledgeable about the wedding business and he will help your day and ideas come to life. Not only will you have the best experience with Jason, but you will have the best night of your life with him as your wedding DJ. We got married in July, and still to this day in December, we have friend's and family that still talk about how epic our wedding dance was. We now even have friends that will have him as their wedding DJ per an amazing experience at our own wedding. I would 100% get married to my husband again and again just to have Jason as our wedding DJ all over again. Thank you for everything, Jason! You are truly the best of the best.

As a full time graduate student and my (now) husband owning his own business, the wedding planning process was stressful due to time constraints. We relied on hiring professional, reputable and organized vendors for our wedding. I cannot speak highly enough of Jason at Energy Event Group. The wedding day was a smooth sailing process because of his expertise and experience. School prevented me from giving Jason a detailed list of everything on my mind. Jason took my ideas and created the best of my husband and I's lives. He has a great reputation with a lot of local venues, caters and photographers so you can trust he will work seamlessly with your other vendors. Jason was easy to get ahold of, quick to respond and professional (and very fun). We got so many compliments at the wedding about his amazing work. Jason ensure smooth sailing from the moment the guests arrived at the ceremony to the final song. I had a specific request to have "Mr. Brightside" be a special, hype moment and he made it happen - it will be a moment I'll never forget. I am still blown away at how incredible he was and cannot recommend him enough. No need to look at other DJ's because Jason is your guy.

I don't know where to begin with Jason at EEG! He was absolutely incredible to work with! He was able to take all of our ideas and different tastes in music and make the best day of our lives one that we will never forget!
Jason helped my husband and mother-in-law create a fun mash up mother-son dance, as well as helped us with our slideshows that we played for cocktail hour and my family dance (honoring my dad who has passed). He was so great about it all and so willing to help!
He also surprised us by bringing cold spark machines for our first dance, and that was not only so kind but SO awesome to see in pictures and videos as well. He also brought out light up foam sticks that were a crowd hit!
At one point, he even helped out with lighting candles and was truly apart of the whole day. Not once was there a complaint - he was more than willing to help move things along to make the evening smoother.
We would HIGHLY recommend EEG, and even better Jason if you are able to work with him! He's not just DJ/MC - he is an entertainer! He made magical moments in our wedding that lots of guests usually miss, but didn't thanks to his amazing talent and effort! We can't wait to party with him again someday!

Jason with EEG was absolutely incredible to work. He was always on his game, kept everything alive the whole night. Absolutely the most professional vendor you could ask for. If you ever had questions, concerns, comments he was always prompt with his responses. He was very reasonably priced for the amount of detail and work he put into your big day. I 100% would recommend Jason with EEG with any sort of party. Wedding, etc.

Where should we begin! We have known Jason at EEG for quite some time now. He has also done previous weddings in our family as well! We had the pleasure of having Jason himself at our wedding and he EXCEEDED expectations! From the flawless setup, excellent lighting and working with an outside venue for the ceremony in May can always be questionable, but we had a beautiful day!
When you hire EEG you’re not just getting a DJ you are getting an EXPERIENCE. Start to finish a well thought out production provided by these wedding professionals. If you have a DJ booked, pay the cancellation fee, or change your date to HIRE THESE GUYS! Five stars is not enough

Wow! Jason Yashino with Energy Events Group rocked the house at our wedding. I have previously worked in the bridal industry and have heard nothing but GREAT things about EEG. It was a no-brainer I wanted them for our wedding. We booked Jason in July for our May 2023 wedding. He checked in multiple times throughout those nine months. I would easily say he was the most "hands-on" vendor we had. On the day of he arrived early to set up and check in with us. Later that night he kept the party going until closing time. It was genuinely the most fun I've had at a wedding but I might be a little biased. Jason was constantly capturing the fun and I love the playback on social media, especially since we didn't get a videographer. Thanks, Jason from EEG for being the perfect wedding DJ!

Jason Yoshino with Energy Event Group was AWESOME, to say the least. He was so professional and organized leading up to to the wedding and always made us feel heard and respected. He was so good about keeping out needs first throughout the planning process. On the day of, he was energetic, fun, and really knew how to keep the dance floor packed!! Seriously. If you want a crowded dance floor and happy wedding guests, EEG is the way to go. You won't be disappointed! Make sure you spring for the photo booth. Many people said it was a highlight of the night for them. It's a fun way to bring out the silly side in your guests while also making memories and giving them something to take home to remember from the night. I would rate my entire experience with Jason and EEG an 11 out of 10! Very satisfied!

EEG went above and beyond for our wedding celebration! It started with all the planning beforehand. Jason was extremely professional and the planning conversations helped everything run smoothly. He does such a great job of making sure his microphone is turned loud enough for the speeches and I’ve never experienced guests be so respectful of the speeches - a lot of this has to do with Jason’s demeanor. He kept the entire dinner and speeches exciting. The mix of music and lighting for our wedding kept the dance floor packed all night long! Highly recommend!!!

We worked with Jason on our BIG day and he was absolutely wonderful! Months and weeks before the wedding, he was in contact with us several times to go over all the details. With the wedding day being full of activity, he did a great job of taking over and leading without having to ask questions to us much. Between DJ & MC for our ceremony and reception, our guests enjoyed him as he kept the night moving along in a fun manner. We appreciate him being active in our wedding and keeping everyone entertained throughout the night! If you're looking for a great DJ, look no further... Energy Event Group is amazing to work with!

We worked with Jason and we could not have been happier with our experience. My husband and I still look back and do not regret spending a little extra on having a good DJ. Jason was so helpful during the planning process and asked a lot of questions about logistics that I had not even thought about. His organization saved me a lot of time.
The week of our wedding, COVID spiked and about half of our guests couldn't come. Jason was very flexible with us and understanding. Although we had less guests than we had hoped to celebrate with, he kept the party going. He had so many creative ways to keep the guests involved and entertained throughout our reception... and I didn't have to worry about anything! We had many guests comment on how fun our reception was, and I even had a friend who booked them for her wedding!

We had EEG & Darnell as the MC and DJ for our wedding 6/4/22. The meetings with Jason during the process helped create a timeline for all vendors involved which made the day go by effortlessly. Darnell was an amazing MC & DJ and our guests mentioned several times throughout the evening and the days after that our DJ was amazing. The photo booth was a huge hit and I cannot wait to see all the fun pictures that were taken as keepsakes from our special day!

My husband and I got married on 6/18/22 and used The Energy Event Group as the MC and DJ for our wedding day. We wanted to provide some pros and cons for future brides and grooms to consider when picking a DJ for your big day.
Pros:
The Energy Event Group certainly knows how to throw a party. We had a great time dancing during our reception. The Energy Event Group is known for glow sticks and the light up foam sticks that certainly add some great flare to your reception party. All guests from what we could tell had a great time dancing.
Cons:
At the end of the night when reflecting upon our day, we realized that quite a few reception pieces were missing that we requested. The Energy Event Group has a very extensive planning form that all couples must fill out prior to the wedding. Within this planning form we specified we wanted to play the wedding party scavenger hunt and shoe game and we wanted to do a garter auction and bouquet toss. Not one of these activities actually occurred. We expressed our dissatisfaction to the company and the company put blame on us as a couple since we went to go do evening photos, which is very typical for weddings. The DJ also mentioned that the timeline was moved up because the photographer and videographer had to leave based on contracted time. It is important to note we were running ahead of schedule after the ceremony going into dinner and I asked if we should start toasts before dinner to help move the timeline up. This idea was shot down by the DJ and we were told to hang out in the bar until the scheduled dinner time even though we were ahead of schedule. Additionally, the DJ mentioned he asked me as the bride during the reception if I wanted to do the bouquet toss and said he never received a response so never did it; I clearly did not hear him and he even acknowledged I was speaking to a guest when he asked. Another point of contention was that the song I specifically asked to walk down the aisle to was not queued up. When this was pointed out, the DJ did admit it was wrong and said “I’m human.” Ultimately, our biggest complaint is that multiple items we requested to occur in our planning forms did not happen. It was never communicated to us that we were running out of time so we could select which activities we wanted to do (even if it wasn’t all the activities we had requested). The amount we paid for DJ services was more than our photographer or food and was close to what we paid for our venue. The service we received did not reflect the price point we paid in our eyes.
Overall, the Energy Event Group throws a great party, we did have a great time. My biggest recommendation when selecting a DJ for your wedding is to make sure you make it very clear ahead of time what you want done. We thought we had done that and we ultimately missed out on memories and activities when we trusted our DJ to ensure all activities occurred even if that means having to hunt down the bride and groom. As you would imagine on your wedding day you get pulled in a million directions and have no idea what time it is.

We had Darnell as our wedding DJ and he was phenomenal! Both Jason and Darnell were involved from the very beginning of booking to the day before our wedding making sure we had things all lined up! (And of course Darnell was there DJing but by that time it’s all a party :)) It was so nice to follow their lead on what our reception timeline would look like but still have full control over creativity for what ever we wanted to do, they were always on board for any of our ideas! Darnell kept the dance floor packed - literally all the way until the lights came on to end the reception. We still have people come up to us and tell us what a riot our wedding was, all thanks to Darnell and EEG!!
Thank you! We couldn’t say enough good things about these guys - they truly love celebrating love!

Jason from EEG is hands down the BEST! He goes far beyond the role of just a DJ. He is attentive to every detail and ensures that everything from the set up of the ceremony to the end of the reception is flowing perfectly. He also provides a fun atmosphere and keeps guests entertained all evening. I can’t recommend EEG enough!

We couldn’t have been happier with our choice of EEG and Jason for our wedding reception. We had 2 meetings in which Jason made sure to go over every detail so we knew what to expect and made sure to listen to any of our requests. We had SO many people say to us that they’ve never had so much fun at a wedding reception before. The games we played, the music, and the flow of the entire evening was perfect. It was so nice to be able to completely trust him as a vendor and know that I didn’t have to worry about the small things. I would 100% recommend EEG and Jason to future brides!

Thank you EEG and Darnell for making our day and wedding dance something we will remember forever! You should run, not walk to book this incredible group. We cannot say enough good things about their professionalism, passion for their work, and communication throughout the entire planning process. This was one vendor we booked just a few weeks after getting engaged and we are so glad we did!

I would give Jason 6 stars if I could. I knew from the first phone call with Jason that we had made the perfect choice for our DJ. Night or day, Jason has GREAT communication and always made sure our questions were answered in a timely manner. We had meetings throughout the year and he helped me with SO many things I would’ve never remembered on my own. He is so much more than “just a DJ”. On our wedding day, Jason set up the most perfect lighting, played beautiful music before & during the ceremony, and made sure all of our needs were met throughout the entire day. He helped dismiss tables for the buffet line, direct speeches, coordinated with other vendors, and so so much more. We played games and danced to some really fun songs that everyone interacted with. Because our wedding was on a Sunday, a lot of our guests left early. Not Jason. He stayed long into the night and kept the party going! We had the most fun I have ever had in my almost 22 years of life. He also danced the night away with us- and I have never seen any other DJ do that :-)
Thank you Jason, for keeping the energy high and giving us the most perfect day. No matter what the cost would’ve been, I would book you a million times over. 10000% worth it, you will not regret your decision with Jason & Energy Event Group!

Jason, with Energy Event Group, was absolutely amazing. He knows how to help throw one heck of a party. Not only is he a DJ, but he also emcees throughout the wedding reception. He truly gets to know each and every one of his couples and their back stories. He gave great ideas for the wedding and ALWAYS respected my opinion. I never felt pressured into having a certain music order or schedule for the night. Jason has a very upbeat personality and is one of the most genuine people I have ever met. If you are looking for not only an amazing DJ, but also a personable, fun, and life of the party DJ, Jason is your guy.

Jason was absolutely wonderful to work with & was a vital part of our ceremony & reception! In addition to providing great music for our dance and ceremony, he was so helpful in the planning process. He basically organized the entire reception and the timeline for the evening to make sure that everything we wanted would be done, that guests would stay entertained, and that everyone would have a fun, stress-free night! He always had answers to our questions & solutions to any problems that came up. He was also very easy to communicate with! Many of our guests commented on how amazing our DJ was & how much fun our reception and dance was! We would highly recommend him to everyone!

Having Energy Event Group as a part of our wedding day was one of the best decisions that we made! We had Jason join us for our big day and he sure brought the energy! We had been to a previous wedding of his and had SO MUCH FUN that we knew he had to be a part of our day as well!
During our first Facetime meeting, after talking we left the conversation feeling like we had known him for years! He is so easy to get along with and knows how to put the couple 100% first! We met a few times throughout the year to make sure we stayed on track and coordinated everything correctly.
On the wedding day, DJs make or break the vibe of the night and our dance floor was overflowing throughout the entire night. He was super interactive and played all the right songs that kept the dance floor busy! He had fun games that kept all of our guests busy and never made them feel like they were waiting for the next thing. He brought the energy, the fun, great lighting, great planning, and made our wedding a day that we will never forget!

Our wedding was 5 years ago and we still get compliments on how our wedding was “the best wedding ever!” I know this was simply because of Jason and his team at Energy Event Group. Not only did we get a DJ for our wedding, but we got a host. Jason went above and beyond my expectations. He made the evening seem so effortless for us as the bride and groom. He kept everything running smoothly. Even making sure we had plenty of food, cake and drinks at the head table. We were treated like his “celebrities” that evening. Jason made the planning of the reception so easy on us. Meeting with him and having him help us each step of the way took a lot of pressure off of us. Jason’s professionalism, energy and talents were such a gift to us. We had so much fun at the reception dance! Jason & EEG, thank you for making our wedding a wonderful memory. We simply can’t thank you enough!
