We live in Seattle, and were planning our destination wedding in the phoenix area. I had hired a…read moreDJ of the wedding site Zola. Thought everything was great until the DJ ghosted us, I know what you are going to say what does that have to do with Ayre Entertainment. Well, I started scrambling about 7 weeks before the event, and went back to our wedding site. I came across Josh, the owner of Ayre Power entertainment and from the first consult we. were locked in. He asked us what we had envisioned for our event and from there it just took off, we had sparklers, up lighting and full DJ display with lights. He was a mastermind at creating our event. All I remember was Josh saying don't worry, I got this and I never looked back. His engagement with the wedding party and the guests was like he has known us for years. At the ceremony we had mic's so our guests could hear the proceedings, and he got the officiant and my self on hot mic's and just shook his head at us, it was a moment of levity. When Josh tells you he is bringing the truck and everything is going to be used, you have to believe him, his set up is 100x better than any other DJ set up that I have seen over the last few weddings I have attended. Josh asked about such details as what age group am I playing to and what type of songs should we be playing, He played music from the 60's through todays hit's and even through in a couple of surprise mixes. I remember Josh telling me in the consult, one of many that Josh did at no extra cost, saying my plan is to have your guests on the dance floor all night long. And to his credit, everyone was dancing. Even those that were naturally challenged do to so. He kept us on schedule throughout the ceremony and reception as he guided us through all the formal dance prerequisites. As we mapped it out before hand, he said Corey you are over time, so we made some cuts to some of the formalities and it turned out great, no one was to the wiser. A fun key dance that gets everyone on the dance floor is the Anniversary dance. Josh is a master at getting the bodies on the floor. My wife lost her dad about 4 months before the wedding, so it changed a lot of things, and Josh approached us and said I would like to do a tribute to your Dad for the father-daughter dance. It was such a pointed tribute to my wife and her dad, that there was not a dry eye in the crowd. Again, without Josh these memories would not have been had. There is a saying, that you get what you pay for and not only did we get what we paid for we got 10x that in the memories and experiences that Josh created for our event. I look forward to the next event that Josh is part of because it will be that epic and special to you. To this day, guests are still talking about Josh and the job he did and asking how they can get in touch with him. To Josh, I can't thank you enough for all the hard work that you put in to make our event so special. You are truly a master at your craft and delivered upon all my expectations.

Phil is the picture of professionalism. It is difficult to know what you're going to get with a DJ…read morebecause the experience is so personal. But know that if you hire Phil you will be extremely happy with your experience from beginning to end. Throughout the planning stage, Phil offered us 11 out of 10 communication. He is extremely organized and efficient, is clearly very experienced, and offered ideas we never would have thought of on our own. I felt like I was in very good hands the entire time. And Phil's work at our wedding could not have been better. He kept us on time, provided our guests with well-timed & minimally disruptive updates and information, and coordinated his equipment smoothly even though we had multiple location changes from the ceremony to dinner to the reception. He created a beautiful vibe during our ceremony, a fun and upbeat vibe during cocktail hour and dinner, and the best dance floor experience I could have asked for. He even set up cold sparklers to ignite during the crescendo of our first dance! And, unlike other DJs, Phil offers packages that allow you to have his services for your entire event (rather than by the hour) which is huge if you have a longer event planned. Hiring Fantastic Five Entertainment should be the easiest decision you make for your wedding.

I approached Paula (the owner and principal photographer) a few months ago to help me with a project for my girlfriend. I had several photos of the two of us that were taken with smartphones, and needless to say, the quality was just not there. Paula was able to freshen them up and make them look just great, and even went above and beyond and cropped them all to standard sizes so I could print them at my convenience. My girlfriend was just thrilled. I'll definitely be a repeat customer the next time I need any type of photo work done! I would note that this is also a veteran-owned business.

She will get down into poses to show you exactly what she wants, she helps fix hair and directs you where to look. The excited shreek she does after one of her favorite pictures are taken is the best sound in the world. She laughs with you, and will even cry with you. Shea shows you your soul, and that is something very few people are able to do. She has such an amazing eye for detail, and captures the moments I've only ever dreamed about. Shea isn't just there to shoot photography, she's there to make you feel the best way possible, and build you back up to the warrior you are. She makes friendships. She puts her whole being into her work, and it truly shows in her products. She will forever have my recommendations and support!

I wanted something fancier than a backyard barbecue but more casual than a formal banquet, and after searching all over town, calculating catering costs vs. space rentals, Knights of Columbus came through! We rented the lower hall and were told we could decorate as we pleased, they simply asked that we not drill holes in their walls (because some idiot actually did that). Chef Marc Molinari always made time for me during the planning stages and was incredibly accommodating with the menu. So accommodating that, upon request, he whipped up a Yakisoba dish that my husband remembered fondly from his basic training days. They offered a variety of dining options: linens, booze, bartender, servers, buffet step up or sit down table service, all the while remaining mindful of my budget. It was a complete relief to have everything I needed available on site, and I honestly can't think of another venue in Sierra Vista that could have provided all the same services for roughly 1500k. It was perfect!
