HiMotive Entertainment is a Event/Wedding entertainment service company operating out of North Carolina. From highly skilled photographers to DJs, Our ultimate goal is to handle all of your audio-visual needs.

David with HiMotive Entertainment was easy to communicate with leading up to our wedding. He was direct in answering all of my questions. Unfortunately, he came down with COVID shortly before our big day. However, he assured me he had a replacement available. I didn't learn until afterwards that his replacement drove all the way from Florida to Virginia through Tropical Storm Debbie to ensure he could perform at our wedding! This level of dedication was so appreciated. Both musicians were prompt, friendly, and helped make our special day feel even more special. The music really brought our venue to life and set the tone for a fun, romantic evening celebrating with our nearest and dearest.

When it comes to weddings, there's only one chance to get it right! It's why I care so much about each wedding and that I treat each one as if it were my own! THAT is the kind of passion I give each and every one of my couples to not only ensure the vision for their day comes to reality but that their ONLY 'responsibility' on their wedding day is to celebrate with their family and friends! Quite frankly, I LOVE weddings and I consider it an honor to be part of their day & assisting them in creating lifelong memories (not to mention the amount of trust that my couples place upon me).

Jack did an AMAZING job at our wedding. He is professional and incredibly helpful. His vast knowledge of the music industry and his outgoing personality was exactly what we were looking for. Jack listened to what we wanted and came up with an incredible playlist for the evening. His charisma and passion for what he does is so undoubtedly noticeable.

Born and raised in the Metro Detroit area. DJ iamchase is not just the #1 Celebrity Dj in West Michigan. He is also a Tour Dj, Record Breaker, and a Host. All while DJing Weddings, Corporate events, Concerts, and Night Clubs.

Our Dj, Terrell, did a FANTASTIC job at our wedding. He announced everything well, communicated with our wedding coordinator and the other vendors, played our requested song list, and consistently checked in on my (new!) husband and I throughout the evening to see if there was anything that he could help us with. On our song list, we noted that we didn't want any country music played (unless it was a specifically requested song), and when one of our guests asked him to play 'Cotton Eye Joe', Terrell even came up to me and asked me if it was okay because he wasn't sure if I considered that country music! Overall, we are VERY happy with terrell! My husband and I would definitely recommend to other couples who are planning a wedding!
