Ultimate Entertainment made my November 7, 2020 Covid wedding AMAZING. With all the uncertainty this year I felt so comfortable having Rob as our DJ. Maggie was amazing and ensured that if we had to reschedule we could. Rob's energy was always high during the planning process which kept us excited for our wedding and not feeling down due to Covid uncertainties. Due to regulations, guests were spread out into two different rooms and Rob made sure that everyone felt included and involved. It was impossible not to dance from anywhere in the venue. When it was time for important moments he gathered everyone in the main ballroom 6 feet apart with their masks to make sure that everyone saw the first dance, parent dances, cake cutting etc. Part of our package included a video love story and a photo montage. Maggie's editing skills are elite and it was the perfect addition to our wedding. Our package also included indoor fireworks (which were lit up ALL night not just twice) and party give aways which made the wedding more fun. My father does NOT dance and he was on the dance floor all night. My mother said, "With us being married 40 years we've gone to a lot of weddings and I've never seen him dance like that. He didn't even dance like that at our wedding." So that right there says it all! Rob can get anyone on the dance floor - even a 67 year old man who never dances. EVERYONE had a blast. People keep calling our parents saying what a great time they had. All the credit is given to Ultimate Entertainment for that. DJ's make or break a wedding and ours was unforgettable. I HIGHLY recommend their service. Thank you so much! Victoria & Jack read more

Watch Rob in action and you will know how he stays in shape - at our son's bar mitzvah he didn't sit for a moment! He is 100% high energy, fun, entertaining and makes your day run smoothly. Amazing how he can rally 65 children from 3-16 and keep them completely occupied for 4+ hours by himself! We chose mainly games as that's what appealed to our son, and Rob could not have worked harder to keep the kids smiling and entertained. Everyone loved him and commented on how hard he worked and how much they enjoyed the DJ. He and his assistant, Maggie, are great with the details and making sure all the i's are dotted and the t's are crossed! He has a complete range of party-related options to offer, yet he does not "sell," and his pricing represents a great value. He was also completely amenable to certain specific music selections which required research and time on his part to find. Overall the company is very responsive and left no details hanging. Rob was really friendly, kind and fun to work with; my children loved him instantly. My younger son is ready for Rob to run his party in a few years! Rob truly understands that it's a "big event," the success of which greatly depends on him. read more

The BEST BEST BEST!! Ultimate Entertainment deserves 100 stars! From the first time we met Rob at his office in Nutley we knew this was the team for us. He made us feel so comfortable and went through every little detail with us, we booked them on the spot! From zoom calls with Rob and our AMAZING MC JOE, I REPEAT AMAZING MC JOE, and emails with Maggie, it was nothing but professionalism, enthusiasm, and generosity! Great Great people! My wedding was a blast and the dance floor and green screen photo booth were never empty. Joe had the party going all night and my guests are still talking about it! The music selection(which i left up to them) from the props have had everyone talking for weeks now! We also used the photographer, photography package from ultimate entertainment to, Jose Gomez Photography who also did such and amazing job. I could write for days because that is how much they all made my wedding night perfect and if i had to do it again I wouldn't change one single thing! if you're looking for an amazing spectacular night then Ultimate Entertainment is definitely the way to go! Thank you so much Rob, Joe Maggie and Jose photography for the best night ever!! read more

We used Ultimate Entertainment for our son's Bar Mitzvah almost two weeks ago and people are still talking about and how awesome Joe (MC), Vin (DJ) and the rest of the team were. Joe really kept the party going and there wasn't a moment of boredom. We really loved how he kept the kids and adults constantly entertained. He even had combine activities were kids and adults participated together. Last night at the Back to School Night, we ran into bunch of parents of our son's friends and they wouldn't stop talking about how much fun their kids had. Even our son's teachers knew how awesome the party was. When we first met with Rob (the owner) we knew instantly that this is the company we will go with. He did an awesome job in presenting us with various options and never insisted on anything we didn't feel we need. Throughout the whole process we had constant communications with the office through Maggie, who always returned my calls and responded to my emails in a timely manner. We would recommend Ultimate Entertainment without any reservation. read more

Where do I begin. First from the first phone call to get info for booking they were 200% professional and so polite just made us feel like my daughters sweet 16 was the most important event in the world. Pricing was great and the night of my daughters party, they were in the building and set up by the time we showed up to do a final check 2 Hours before the party!! Once the party started they had a game plan already set up, the photo booth was a big hit and the MC Joe got everybody on the floor!! DJ Vin played the perfect set and the young lady Maggie at the photo booth kept everyone coming back. These guys provided the PERFECT party experience and on top of everything else they came all the way down to Deptford, NJ like it was around the corner. Stop looking, do yourself a favor and BOOK ULTIMATE ENTERTAINMENT!!! They will make your event the toast of the town!! read more

Ultimate Entertainment truly deserves more than 5 stars! Rob and his staff was amazing from the very beginning of the process. We first met Rob at my twin cousins baptism party. He was so much fun and lively at the party that we knew we had to hire him again for my grandmother's 90th celebration. I was impressed from the beginning. Maggie was professional and prompt during our booking process. Rob took our suggestions and absolutely made our ideas better during the party. All of my friends and family loved Rob's enthusiasm, professionalism and energy during the party. He even managed to get my 90 year old grandma on the dance floor! The dance floor was always full! Our guests kept saying how amazing and funny Rob is during the party. Ultimate Entertainment ft. RF will always be our family events' "designated DJ!" Thank you to Rob and his staff!! read more

DJ Rob and his team do not disappoint! Ultimate Entertainment came highly recommended for our wedding, and we were fortunate to see Rob in action at a few parties prior to our big day. During the planning process, Rob was very professional and well organized, which was a great help. He asked us questions about the music planning that we hadn't thought of ourselves. Needless to say, we wanted a party and that's what we got! Rob knows how to work a crowd and keep the energy level high. The dance floor was packed ALL night - even during some courses of the meal! Everyone raved about the music selection and the giveaways. Ultimate Entertainment did such a fantastic job that a few engaged couples at our wedding have since booked them for their upcoming receptions! Wedding planning can be stressful, but Ultimate Entertainment is the answer! read more

I can't offer enough praise for this company, and specifically for DJ/MC Rob Franicola. They MADE my daughter's Sweet 16 Party! I had guests approach me all night to comment on how awesome Rob and his assistants were. I wouldn't dream of ever booking anyone else. They are high-energy, keep the partygoers engaged, and carry out your instructions better than you envision them! About a week before the party, they sent me a questionnaire, and they fulfilled every request, deviation and desire I had. For example, my daughter chose a different song for each of the candle recipients. We did not specify which parts of the songs to play, yet somehow he knew to play the PERFECT clips for each and every one. Rob was also highly entertaining for both my young, teenage and much older guests alike. And he walked us through every step of the evening. read more

We used Ultimate for my son's bar mitzvah this past weekend and they were nothing short of AMAZING. Rob was our MC and I have no idea how he has so much energy, but he kept the place rocking all night! We had them set up cocktail hour games - foosball, pop-a-shot and a casino table - that were big hits. We had dancers/motivators that were "on" the whole night and had the kids and the adults dancing and celebrating - we got so many compliments on the DJ company from our guests. The video wall, photo booth with custom step and repeat, cold sparklers and other upgrades Ultimate offers were well worth it and truly made the party spectacular. Rob was amazing to deal with throughout the process and very flexible to make the event and our vision come to life. What a night!!! read more

Ultimate Entertainment was instrumental in making our daughter's COVID-delayed and attendance-lowered bat mitzvah still a huge and uplifting success and a much needed day of fun and celebration for my daughter and our family. They were super responsive and flexible as we needed to change dates and as our budding teen changed her mind several times over the course of nearly two years of planning regarding what she wanted. At the event, Rob was amazing at reading and adjusting to the crowd, shifting the order of activities if the kids were distracted by the photo booth or adjusting the time balance between games and dancing based on the kids' level of enthusiasm. Could not be happier with Rob and the team! read more

Rob and his staff were amazing to work with and did a phenomenal job with my son's Bar Mitzvah. As a super busy working mom, my head was perpetually in a million places and Ultimate Entertainment just took care of the details (and me). For example, the day before my son's Bar Mitzvah, I realized that the montage photos I uploaded to dropbox were not complete. In a panic, I emailed them and within a few hours, they revised the montage without even missing a beat. At the end of the party, I received many many compliments about great Rob was- his energy, keeping the kids and adults engaged and overall enthusiasm. I would highly recommend them (and will be using them again). read more

We have used Ultimate Entertainment for our son's Bar Mitzvah and our daughter's Bat Mitzvah and all I can say is they are THE BEST. Rob knows how to get the crowd going, keep everyone having a good time, dancing, and he knows how to make sure the kids and adults at the party all have a great time. I could not have imagined a better party than they were able to provide. Their lighting, games, and special effects (dancing on clouds, intelligent lighting, uplighting, and cold sparklers) are all first class and help to lend an air of magic to the night. Rob fills the room with positive energy all night. He is the best DJ around. read more

We just celebrated my daughter's Bat Mitzvah with about 100 adults and 85 kids. Rob had ALL of us dancing. There was a nice balance..he didn't shout too much in the microphone as many MC's do...which is often a huge distraction and annoying (my pet peeve). The kids never sat down. The music was great and Rob and his team were very open to suggestions/playlists we had. The games/photo booths etc were all great and reasonably priced. The Cookie Do (inquire about this!) was the biggest hit! Rob also handled all of the sound for our service which was a separate entity and it went off without a hitch. Thumbs up all around. read more

Rob you were amazing! Thank you for giving my son a great bar mitzvah experience. You engaged the kids from the moment they entered the party and kept them entertained throughout bar mitzvah. Your energy and enthusiasm made it a great time. The personalization for my son, the soccer game, was awesome. Everything was perfect for him. I loved the logo on the screen and photo booth printouts for guest. The music was fun and at the end you added some Israeli music for my husband's family. That was an awesome surprise that they enjoyed dancing too! Ultimate Entertainment is my go-to for any future events. Thank you! read more

Fabulous! The Best!!! Rob was the MC/DJ for my youngest daughter's Quinceanera. This man is FULL of energy, he is fun, and sensitive to the crowd and getting everyone involved (young and old). Rob was quick to get a feel for the type of music we wanted as well and got the crowd moving. Rob made my daughter's special occasion a night to remember. Rob and his staff was also very professional and very easy to work with. Rob made us feel like we could just enjoy the party. He is a very sweet person, very personable, professional and reasonable. Worth every penny and then some! Thank you Rob! read more

I wanted Rob to DJ my wedding from years before I met my wife. I am a DJ myself and from day one I had been very impressed by himself and his team. I was very excited to start the planning process. When my fiancé and I met with him he was incredibly energized by our ideas. Rob, Frankie, Ryan and Maggie all helped the planning process and added surprises. The day of the wedding was incredible and the party was remembered months later. By far I believe they are not just DJs but entertainers. We will definitely use them again for future parties. - Jenna and Aaron Tripoldi - Wedding 01-13-2018 read more

They say that music makes the party...and our DJs definitely MADE IT!!! What a great job they did!! We used Ultimate for our son's Communion party and kids and adults alike had a BLAST!! The DJs did such a terrific job at keeping our guest on the floor and entertained. They totally played to the crowd and made it so much fun for everyone! They truly made my son feel like a "star"! My family and friends couldn't stop asking me where I found my DJ! Rob was great to work with...very personable, professional, and organized! Thank you Ultimate Entertainment!!! read more

Thank you Ultimate Entertainment for DJing my 30th birthday party!!! Robert & Mike did an amazing job!! They not only played great music, but put on an awesome show for my guests and truly kept them entertained!! The night was everything I envisioned & more! I LOVED the 80s mix that you made & the trivia questions really got everyone involved. In fact, some of my guests asked for your information as they would love to book Ultimate Entertainment for their special celebrations as well! Can't wait for the next party! Thanks so much! ~Katherine~ read more

AMAZING!! For four hours Rob kept nearly 80 middle school kids completely engaged and having fun at our son's Bar Mitzvah. Rob has an extraordinary gift in what he does and we feel so lucky to have found him. His energy, creativity, enthusiasm....just amazing. We have been to so many events over the years and truly, nothing can compare to the feeling created by Rob and his crew. Dealing with Rob was a pleasure from start to finish and we look forward to working with him again in a few years for our younger son. read more
