We also had a Photo Booth, which was set up quickly and worked perfectly. It captured all the important moments and was a great way to create lasting memories.
The team was very approachable, professional, and easy to communicate with.
We can highly recommend Extraordinary Entertainment for any event. They helped make our prom a memorable and enjoyable experience:)
Brian Sun, our main contact, was a pleasure to work with—responsive, thoughtful, and organized. On the start and end day of the event, the two gentlemen who set up and dismantled the stage arrived right on time, worked efficiently, and were both extremely friendly and professional.
The stage looked great and everything ran smoothly thanks to their excellent service. We would highly recommend Extraordinary Entertainment Inc. to anyone in need of reliable and high-quality event support!

The customer service is always excellent and we know we can count on the team to execute.
Even when we couldn’t decide what services to book, Matt was there every step of the way to help us make the right choice. His support and professionalism made the whole process so much smoother.
The photobooth was a huge hit at our wedding. It was a highlight for our guests and really added a fun element to the celebration. This all came together thanks to the amazing preparation Matt and his team put in behind the scenes to ensure everything was perfect.
On the wedding day itself, we had Ronnie take over, and he was absolutely fantastic. He worked seamlessly in the background and was there if we needed anything, but without being intrusive.
We also want to mention just how wonderful Matt was to work with on a personal level. Not only did he respond quickly to every message, but he took the time to speak with us on the phone and truly listened to our needs and answer questions. It was clear that he wasn’t just there to book a service – he genuinely cared about making our day as special as possible and giving us the best experience. His kindness and dedication made all the difference.
If you're considering a photobooth for your event (or possibly other services), book with Extraordinary – it will be 100% worth it!
For DJ entertainment, we had the pleasure of working with DJ Chalant and DJ Run It Back Jack, who delivered an incredible performance. They curated the perfect blend of holiday vibes and R&B hits, keeping the atmosphere lively and everyone singing and dancing throughout the event.
