Corporate Function•Reviewed on November 11, 2019•From Austin, TX
The Family Feud style game show was fun and entertaining! We had Marc and his wife here in Austin for an offsite fun activity - they were accommodating and fun. My executive leadership team enjoyed doing something a little different and being the competitive bunch that they are, having the points and all the technology associated with the game made it even more fun! The photo booth was a riot as well with all the costumes and funny glasses, we had a blast and would definitely recommend trying them out.

Christmas Party•Reviewed on January 23, 2017•From Green Bay, WI
I booked Marc Simon for our annual company holiday party. He was a big hit with everyone! I had several employees tell me that this party was the best they had been to in a long time. He was professional, but entertaining and made the crowd laugh. Not only could he karaoke himself (quite well), but he also helped other groups out when appropriate. As an example, a group of women performed Love Shack, and Marc sang the male portions of the song. Family Feud was also very fun. The questions were appropriate for a company party and I approved them ahead of time. He will customize to your liking also. I would highly recommend him for anyone wanting to have fun.

Marc was fantastic! He was professional, accommodating, warm and engaging but best of all he had fun with us. My guests and I loved him. He brought joy to the entire family from the kids to the adults. He sang, danced, joked and laughed with us for hours. I would book him again and again!!!

We highly recommend them for any holiday Christmas party, graduation party, or fund raising event. Several of our employees expressed that this was our best Christmas party entertainment yet. Great value for the cost. Their equipment is top notch as well! Mark is awesome to work with and very accommodating to meet the needs of our party. We started the night with the game show, then a round of Montey Hall, and finished the night with interactive karaoke.

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 12, 2016•From Quincy, IL
Everything went very smooth, no issue what so ever.
Once they were hired they contacted the location of the event and made all arrangements for setting up.
They kept up informed as to their status.
If you hire them you can consider it one less thing to worry about.

We used Gameshow for a group party of kids and adults. The hosts were accommodating and did a great job at including as many people in the game as time would allow. The set up for the venue was impressive-as the players actually used jeopardy style set and props. The only change I would make would be to cater the questions and topics more specific to the group I had at the party - specifically for the kids. Overall, very pleased and would definitely hire them again! Thanks for a great party!

I hired Marc for my 40th birthday party this past weekend. He and Linda were very professional and kind. I had a blast playing the games and it also got rave reveiws from my party guests. The kids also had a great time doing karaoke. I highly recommend Marc's services and would love to hire him again in the future!

This was SO much fun! Having the game show, minute to win it challenges, music, karaoke, and photo booth was such a great variety, and fun for everyone! Once people saw the games, more volunteered to participate. People got into dancing and karaoke, and the photo booth was a definite hit with great props. We were very pleased with the entertainment for our company Christmas party! Thank you!

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 7, 2015•From Havana, IL
Marc Simon did an excellent job for our hospital Christmas party 2015! He was easy to work with and went above and beyond to make sure everyone was having a fun time. He showed up early with all of the equipment and tested everything to make sure the sound was right. He put on an excellent show with music in the background initially, then we had the Family Feud Show, he DJ’ed and we had Karaoke the rest of the evening. I would highly recommend Marc Simon if you are looking for great entertainment and hassle free set-up.

Recently booked this performer for a university event. Everything was handled very professionally and we were able to customize the questions without any trouble or added cost. If we were to do an event like this again, we would strongly consider bringing back this performer.

Holiday Party•Reviewed on January 13, 2016•From Highland, WI
Wow! Everyone had a great time! Marc was in constant contact prior to the show to make sure he had everything done that we expected from him! He arrived early the day of the show to make sure everything was set up in plenty of time. There was great interaction between him and our crowd! We played Family Feud with our crowd aged early 20's to 80's and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. The karaoke provided everyone an opportunity to make fools of themselves ;) We had a blast and would recommend him! I've already had requests to get him again!!

Marc was a wonderful game show host to our family party! Not only did he come on a last minute request, but he was very easy to work with. He answered all of my questions, was very helpful and eager to meet our requests. He was kind and professional. He was excellent at getting all the members of the game engaged, and encouraged much participation and laughter. We all enjoyed him so much, we invited him to join us at the gathering after the game. The whole family was grateful to have him with us!

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on March 13, 2016•From Woodruff, WI
Marc and Linda were extremely friendly and professional. They were gracious in accommodating our last minute requests and checked in several times throughout the evening with the line up of events to make sure we were on track with our desired entertainment. Marc engaged the audience and did an amazing job with spontaneous humor and making the participants feel good. We heard wonderful feedback from those in attendance and many enjoyed the party since it was something new that they had never experienced.

Lizzy,
We sure enjoyed working with you and your relatives and they made Linda's and my job easy with their light hearted attitude. We were impressed by the warmth of everyone's comments and we are thankful to have been able to be a part of your celebration.
Thanks,
Marc & Linda

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on April 7, 2017•From Oshkosh, WI
I searched the internet for local entertainers and found several interesting leads. None of them, however, was as personable and genuinely interested in what we were planning than Marc Simon. We ended up deciding on the Family Feud-type game and karaoke. Marc's questions and attention to detail impressed me. He wanted to know his audience to ensure that the music and game questions were age-appropriate. Our party was great! Our guests are still raving about it. Marc went above and beyond what I thought we were hiring him to do, too. He was the emcee of our party who helped guide the entire evening. He and his wife, Linda, were professional yet personable.

Marc was very accomodating in changing the game to meet our needs.
The karoke event after the game show was fantastic. He was able to really ignite the crowd and participate when necessary. Great energy.

Marc Simon was pleasant to work with, very accommodating. There were some "bugs" in the game show and a bit of confusion for the audience due to technical difficulties, but overall, very fun show.

Holiday Party•Reviewed on December 8, 2014•From Monticello, IA
Everything went really well. I was just a little nervous because of the technical difficulties that it may not happen. The team felt that sometimes Mark was hard to get ahold of, but would eventually connect.
Overall the best Holiday party we have had. It was a lot of fun and Mark rolled with the personalities of the group.

Holiday Party•Reviewed on December 4, 2015•From Saint Louis, MO
Marc was great - it was different and fun. Unfortunately, they had a few technical difficulties and communication issues, but in the end it all went pretty smoothly. We would definitely hire again!
:
We normally use all our own equipment but this clients' venue supplies audio,video and lights. Their video caused a problem with the projection to the screen and they weren't able to get the speakers at the stage area to work so we had to get our speakers up to the 17th floor of the building. The internet connection they supplied disconnected during the show so we had to pause for a moment and reset it to continue. We will use our own hotspot cell phone connection in the future to keep this from happening. After getting all the unusual technical problems resolved the show went smoothly and we had a great time with that games and the karaoke singers afterward.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on June 5, 2017•From Naperville, IL
The photo booth and props was great!!! The emcee of the game show could not read the audience and therefore, the audience became quickly bored and uninterested. Emcee kept his back to the audience while the game show games were being conducted. If not for the photo booth, those not playing the game would have felt lost. The pregame was poorly managed and lasted too long, which threw our entire program off schedule. Group would have preferred the photo booth, karaoke and music only. Game show was a bomb....
:
We made a poor decision by changing our regular routine that the client asked us to do. We felt that is was really not a good idea but we were trying to appease the client. We are the professionals in this situation and feel we know what works best from our experience. In addition to the changes, our client took one of our preset tables we arranged for with the venue so we asked for another one. Then she took another one later which took away more time for our setup. Finally, the client interjected between games and asked Linda to stop her from doing her responsibilities in the game and run the photo booth which was not allowed in our contract. A difficult night.
