Encore Entertainment & Ultrax DJ's: Entertainment, Photography, Videography and Photobooths!

Fantastic service. They provided the DJ, photography, videography, and officiant for our wedding. Everybody worked together seamlessly and mark was absolutely fantastic.

We definitely had a great time, I'm still hearing comments from guests that said the DJ was awesome. I also heard from one guest who said that she NEVER dances, but was dancing at our wedding the whole night! Thank you so much for your professionalism, to be honest with you, your service was better than the Marriott's, which I've expressed my dissatisfaction with them already. It was the little things that I appreciated most, like when you asked me what I wanted to drink and when you got my photographer to take a picture of my wedding party when they came up behind our sweetheart table. Thanks again and I will definitely recommend you for all of my friend's...

Hi Mark, The wedding was wonderful, and the staff at your company was very professional and personable. We enjoyed working with all of the staff for planning. They were clear about what they needed, and able to help us decide what choices would work best for us. Lauren was great about getting the pictures done before the ceremony and including everyone we wanted. She was even helpful with the wedding dress when no one else could figure it out. We can't wait to see how the pictures turned out. Billy did an excellent job getting the music that we wanted worked in, and anticipating what our guests would enjoy. Our family was impressed with the music selection as it offered something for everyone. He created a very comfortable and fun environment where everyone could really enjoy themselves. We also have gotten a lot of compliments on the short and sweet ceremony. Thank you for leading us through it. Over all our experience with Ultrax Disc Jockeys and Encore Entertainment was fantastic. Thanks again, Aly and Ryan 11-12-11

I am so glad I went with this company. I've never seen that many people get on the dance floor at a wedding! Everyone, and I mean everyone was on the dance floor! Mark's team did a wonderful job & exceeded our expectations! People constantly ask for his information. If you decide to go with Ultrax for your wedding, ask for Mark, he is the best!

"When we go out and attend a special event, we usually talk about the things that went wrong, the food and then what people wore. It has been 3 days now and all we can remember are special things - how the ceremony took place without a glitch, the long lines at the photobooth from start to end, all our guests (yes, all) lining up on the dance floor, how the video presentation took place without a slight mishap, and the way things went smoothly from start to finish that did not require any, if not minimal, effort from either of us. When we agreed to hire your services for the event, we envisioned that the coordination between the MC, DJ, Photographers and videographers will be seamless. Your familiarity with the Holiday Inn at East Windsor made things even simpler - you have the place and the people in the palm of your hand. You are indeed the Master of Ceremonies! We sincerely thank you and your team for making our wedding Very *Extra* Special. Noel and Margaret

Thanks again for everything. You and your staff did an awesome job getting the crowd to dance and making our wedding day a most memorable occasion. Everything went so smoothly and we couldn't be happier. You guys did a truly excellent job and we are so happy with everything. Thanks so much again!

Thanks again to you and your staff for making our special event so Wonderful. We would definitely recommend your company!"- Janet and Steve (The mother & father of the bride), The Bradford Estate, June 25, 2011

Mark, “You helped make our wedding day one of the best days in our lives! Everyone loved the music. You were able to get some people on the dance floor who never even dance. Now that’s an accomplishment! You really know how to throw a great party. I wasn’t too sure about the table game during the beginning of the reception, but you told me to trust you and I’m glad I did. It was great! We loved everything you guys did for our wedding we had a blast and everyone that came said the same. My favorite part was when everyone was dancing on the dance floor at the beginning of the reception. Everyone loved the music. I still get comments today about how great the DJ was that night." - Rayna & Curt's Wedding, The Pen Ryn Mansion, April 30, 2011

To: Mark Klatskin and The Encore Entertainment Team (Lauren, Ray, DJ Flip, Patrick, Barkley, and Viktoria): Shahriar and I did a lot of research prior to booking them as a vendor for our 2 day wedding event. Needless to say, we not only got a great value with the Triple Play package they offered us, but we got incredible service on all counts. I have received so much positive feedback on the entertainment for our reception at the Nassau Inn from our family and friends. Mark really kept things moving at a good pace and got everyone involved on the dance floor. Multiple comments from various age groups made statements in regard to the Ultrax DJs and Markl creating a fun and energetic vibe. We loved it so much, we had to extend our reception for an additional hour! Lauren and Ray (Our Photographers) worked with us for our church ceremony on Friday at Saint David the King as well as Saturday at the Nassau Inn. They were incredibly professional and personable. They complimented each other very well. They created an environment that was very comfortable and relaxed and really made the effort to take all of the photographs we requested. I was thrilled with a few of the shots they let us see to give us a sneak peek. I am really looking forward to seeing the final results! Patrick (our videographer) -- It was a pleasure to work with him as well. I know he was getting great footage of everything, but was very much out of sight as to not impose on the bridal party or guests. Barkley was our "day of" wedding planner. She was there to help organize the events of the day and worked closely with Marianne Bilski, our planner at the Nassau Inn. The two of them worked effortlessly together like a well oiled machine... Barkley took care of any last minute details and checked in with us regularly to make sure we had everything we needed when we needed it. Viktoria was very helpful in responding to email correspondance through our planning process and kept us on track with deadlines. Given the nature of our interfaith/cultural ceremonies, they helped make our wedding day(s) unique and memorable with a sensitivity to our needs. Each of their staff helped to play an important role in our day and capturing the memories for us so we can look back fondly on our wedding day for years to come! Sincerely, Michele Moore and Shahriar Mamun (Wedding Ceremony and Reception at The Nassau Inn - Princeton, NJ. September 25th, 2010)

Hi Mark, I just wanted to drop you a note and let you know that you and your company did a wonderful job with our wedding. There isn't a single thing we would change! Everyone loved how you involved everyone and got them on the dance floor. It made it fun and exciting instead of having people sitting around feeling bored. Thank you again for making our special day even better! Jacqueline and David Jobes September 18, 2010 - Wedding at Washington Crossing Inn

"I would like to thank you and your team for putting on a amazing and unforgettable wedding day. Your help and knowledge with music choices, putting the reception schedule in order, and making people join in and moving the night along, really helped relieve some stress and made us be able to focus on our night and enjoy ourselves. Everyone said that they enjoyed the music, young and old, and the games we played to help get everyone to dance was a hit. The photographer was also great, she made it painless and quick for all the group photos and captured all the great moments during the whole wedding. From the very beginning with the setup, to the very end when there was nothing left, GREAT JOB. Thank you!" From: Matt & Noemi Ross - Flanders Valley Country Club - August 6th, 2010

We are still getting compliments on these outstanding services! Mark was able to get everyone up and dancing and we all had a blast. Everyone is still raving about how much fun they had. Everyone hired/working for Ultrax was amazing and extremely professional. We loved hiring one company to do it all/it definitely made everything flow a lot easier. The best part was not wondering what your final "bill" would be once you got your pictures. Ultrax gives you CD's with FULL Resolution pictures on them as well as a print of every picture they shot as PART of the package. We are absolutely thrilled with our whole Ultrax experience and HIGHLY recommend them for any event. - Mr. and Mrs. Vella The Grand Marquis, June 19, 2010

“More than a few of my friends and family members told me that our wedding was the BEST they'd ever been to and they specifically raved about your ability to get everyone out of their seats and having a great time. My new husband and I love to dance to lots of different music and you played all the songs we requested and even more great ones. Amazingly, not only did the minister and his wife join us to get their groove on, but my little baby cousin also amazed everyone with his groovy moves on the dance floor. Incredible! It was a true celebration for everyone and we can't thank you enough!” -Lexi & Andy Ryan (Wedding Reception) At Washington Crossing Inn, May 30, 2010

Mark, I hope you remember Rob and I as fondly as we remember you (Nov 7, 2009). I wanted to share a story I think you'll like. Rob and I just attended his cousins wedding down in Texas. Several of the guests were also at our wedding. While the wedding was lovely, we heard many comments throughout the weekend about how nothing beats our reception and it was hands down the best party ever! Rob's uncle was still raving about how you got everyone dancing and had the best "flow" of music. At one point, the mother of the bride whispered in my ear, "I would have shipped your DJ down here if I could have." It made us smile, of course, but I just had to share the comments with you. Two and half years after our wedding, no one has forgotten Encore;) Coleen & Rob Itri Nov 7, 2009 The Windsor Ballroom At The Holiday Inn East Windsor

As nervous first-timers, the thought of “planning” a wedding was daunting. Our goal was to rely on industry experts who could guide us through the process, without it breaking our budget. From our first meeting with Mark, we could tell Encore Entertainment & Ultrax DJs was the fit for us. Not only was Mark genuine and patient in answering our many questions, but Encore’s packaged services allowed us to choose premium services at a reasonable price, thus eliminating the need to coordinate with numerous vendors. Encore provided our entertainment, photography (including photo sign-in and zap shots) and videography (including a “growing up” video montage). We even utilized Mark as our officiant and requested him as our emcee. Mark and the DJ were spot on. The music was a perfect mix, incorporating our requested favorites, and was played at a level that wasn’t overly loud or obnoxious to guests. We mentioned that one of our hopes was to have everyone up dancing, even though we knew the reality is not everyone dances. Mark found a creative and fun way to get nearly every guest up and dancing, without the pressure tactics I’ve seen at other events. Even our older, out of action guests were standing, smiling and clapping along. We were thoroughly pleased. I can’t even count how many guests raved about our reception (even months later) and asked about our entertainment. The rest of Mark’s team was skilled and very easy to work with. Our photographers and videographer listened to our requests and worked together with venue staff like they’d done this hundreds of times before. Oh wait…they have!! We didn’t have any of the problems or horror stories you so often hear about. Many of our guests commented that they loved the photo sign-in concept and the zap shots were fun to watch on the big screen. Finally, our deliverables were all we hoped for. I asked for my own personal “paparazzi” for the day, and that’s exactly what I got. Everything we asked for was captured. Our pictures were professional, with just the right flair of photojournalistic fun. It was amazing to relive the day, and experience the things we never saw, watching our professionally-produced wedding video. Best of all, we own our materials (pictures & video), which adds to the package value tenfold. We were able to copy and share our photos with friends and family, without paying additional, unexpected fees. Encore is extremely generous with the copyright and what deliverables they provide (electronic copies, hard copies, raw footage, professional videos and albums). It was an absolute pleasure working with Mark, Viktoria and their team, from wedding planning through completion of our albums and video. Even long after our wedding day, the team continued to accommodate sit downs to go over the final touches of our memories. We can’t thank you all enough! Coleen & Rob's Wedding Reception - November 7th, 2009 at The Windsor Ballroom In The Holiday Inn East Windsor, NJ

"My wedding experience with Encore Entertainment & Ultrax Disc Jockeys along with its photography and Videography at The Nassau Inn, has inspired me to say a few words. It will be a challenge, however, to express how impressed and satisfied I am with your services. In one phone call to you, I was able to book my DJ, photographer and videographer; three major components of my wedding which were causing me much stress. Talk about one-stop-shopping! And best of all? The price was EXCELLENT! A friend of mine paid the same thing for her DJ alone! Specifically, my biggest hope when booking my DJ was that he would make my wedding a blast. I’ve been to a few weddings which, quite frankly, sucked. I had family coming in from all over the country; Colorado, Illinois, North and South Carolina…all coming to attend my wedding on a FRIDAY! It had to be fun, and worth the trip for my guests. The problem is that all DJ’s sound great over the phone, but when the reception gets rolling….will they deliver? I thank my lucky stars for Ultrax. In the blink of an eye, the dance floor exploded. All I saw when I looked around were smiling faces. This was the best memory I have of my reception. Even now, a year and a half later, I still have people coming up to me telling me how much fun my wedding was. It was absolutely wonderful. My experience with your photographers was great. They were in there to get the important shots, and then got out of the way. I love the candid shots! Then, I got my album. My album is, hands-down, the best wedding album I have ever seen. I loved being able to pick my pictures and request certain ones in Black & White, Antique or Sepia. I also loved the fact I didn’t have to worry about arranging them. I just picked the pictures I wanted to include, and your photography team designed each page beautifully. Being able to have a picture printed on the front and back covers of the actual album was a unique and wonderful touch. Lastly, my most favorite keepsake of my wedding was without a doubt, my wedding video. I did not expect to see a picture of my husband and I printed on the actual DVD and cover. It was SO well done. The clever use of slow-motion and Black & White on certain segments of the video, really captured the emotion of the moment. It still makes my eyes water. Then we get to the part showing pictures of us growing up. It really is the cutest thing. Above all, I am so thankful to have the video. I know this is something a lot of people chose not to get, but your wedding goes SO fast and you miss SO much. The video allows you to see the things going on with your guests at your wedding or reception that you otherwise would’ve missed. Overall, I have and will continue to recommend you to anyone looking to hire an excellent and reliable company that delivers its promises. You can tell when someone does what they love for a living, and the people at Encore Entertainment & Ultrax Disc Jockeys are fortunate enough to do so." From the bottom of our hearts…Thank You! -Lisa & John Muentener Jr. - Wedding at The Nassau Inn - June 27th, 2008

Mark Klatskin is an amazing DJ. I highly recommend him for any event you plan. He has an incredible variety of music. And he is a fantastic emcee. He got everyone at my wedding - which was 150 guests - on the dance floor. Even little old ladies and people who I know hate dancing, got up and had an amazing time. Mr Klatskin is a lively entertainer who makes it his mission for everyone at your party to have an incredible time. He gets everyone up on the dance floor. He also provides dancefloor lighting and effects. And the best part of his DJ services is that he passes out party props such as top hats, maracas, straw hats and neon necklaces. I know the use of party props at a wedding may sound tacky or odd, because props are reminiscent of children's parties or high school dances, but believe me it was fun and tasteful and made for excellent wedding photos. Lighting, effects and props are extra. You also have to pay a booking fee for Mr Klatskin. He also provides ethnic music. We had an Indian wedding and Mr Klatskin brought along an Indian DJ who spun many Indian hits all night long. We had to pay an extra booking fee for the Indian DJ, too. But it was worth it. My wedding was a year and a half ago and I still have people coming up to me and telling me that my DJ awesome and they had a really good time at my wedding. If you want to have a great time and a party that everyone will remember, I highly recommend Mark Klatskin as your DJ.

Mark was incredible. To my greatest surprise he wowed me !!! Before the second course was served almost everybody was on the dance floor. We had the fusion with DJ and drummer...highly recommend!! All of my guests were excited and enjoying themselves on the dance floor. Very professional, goes over every detail of the wedding and really knows the business very well! Will to travel and honor any strange requests. Very highly recommend. I used Mark after a friend raved about him for her wedding and without even meeting him until the night of my wedding, I was a shoe in based on the reviews!

Encore Entertainment did a fantastic job on our wedding day. Our contract included photography, videography and dj entertainment. Mark was very professional and spent a great deal of time with us during our first meeting. Many of our guests said that they've never seen so many people on the dance floor at one time. We had a photobooth, complete with props, and it was a big hit. We're still waiting for our photos/videos so can't comment on them yet. The photographers/videographer were so easy to work with. We can't wait to see how the pictures came out.
