He is very professional, communicates well and knows what he's doing! Furthermore, he's very kind and has excellent customer service. Darryl came to our party in advance to set-up and executed our deal as we discussed a month prior. My co-workers were so impressed by Darryl and his excellent mix that they want him for their future parties.

From…read morestart to finish, Iman and his team did absolutely everything they could do to make the wedding planning process seamless and our wedding day exactly how we imagined. We were planning our wedding during the pandemic and things were constantly uncertain as to whether or not the wedding would be able go to on. Iman and DJ Kia had routine calls with us to check-in and offer advice. We knew we could trust their opinions and flexility during the uncertain times. On the day of the wedding, DJ Kia was so involved with every aspect of the ceremony and reception. He knew exactly what to do, when to do it, and how to make our wedding day an unforgettable experience. He literally orchestrated our ceremony processional and was making sure everything was running smoothly. Everyone felt at ease walking down the aisle because DJ Kia was there to send them off. We were lucky enough to have Iman MC our wedding, and believe us when we tell you he knows how to put on a show. The dance floor comes alive with Iman on stage and everyone was out of their seats and dancing the entire night. Our cocktail hour ended up going over schedule, which pushed back our reception. It was no worry though, because Iman was there to quickly restructure the timeline and ensure everything ran smoothly. Even with unexpected issues, we felt completely at ease knowing he had us covered. He is such a genuine person who truly cares about his client's happiness. We also used Night Owls for our video production and working with them was a truly pleasant experience. They captured every aspect of the wedding beautifully. In just a few short weeks, we had our trailer and wedding video created, both of which were edited to our liking. They were extremely patient with us throughout the process and the end result is videos we still can't stop watching! Thank you to Brandon and the team at Night Owls for all of their hard work. We also want to give a special thanks to Wake on the sax, Farzan on the drums, and Cyrus on the cello. These three gentleman made the music come alive and our guests could not stop raving about how talented they were. My wife and I still talk about just how great it was working with Exclusively Entertainment and we would absolutely recommend them for your events!

This is by far the cheapest wedding and party lighting vendor in the DC area I found. We spent $410…read moreon 20 colored uplights, which we probably could have only used half of (we used it to light 2 rooms with 70 people), but it really made the wedding venue feel more like a wedding. All the photos are lovely because of it, too. The only thing is you have to set them up yourself, which can take time but is really easy. He's also all the way in Herndon, VA so if you're party is in DC it's kind of a hassle. But otherwise the guy is very professional and the lights were all in working condition.

I had to proactively reach out to schedule our initial meeting about 2-3 weeks out. That being said, I could not recommend Pulse enough.
