We booked AJ for our wedding and he was amazing! He walked us through the process and helped us with our vows. He took the time to personalize the ceremony which was a huge hit! We are so glad we made the decision to work with him.

We were lucky to do this and I'm glad you found us. That was our favorite fundraiser we did this year. You folks were the so nice and very accommodating. We are looking forward to working with you again, and seeing all of your faces.
I though AJ, Ed Waugh, and Drew Dunn did a fantastic job. They stayed working my “PG-13” requirement as this was a corporate event and were still able to be funny.

You folks were great and the kids were great too. We've done a lot of these, but never have they had us sign autographs after. You guys made us feel special. Anything else you need, don't hesitate to ask.
I hired AJ Hapenny for my husbands surprise birthday party. He was professional and promptly responded to my many questions. His group arrived on time and gave us a great show with plenty of laughter. I would higher him again without hesitation.

This happened a year ago, but This is still one of my favorites roasts I've ever done, If not my favorite. Anything else you folks need, don't hesitate to ask!
Excellent Comedian! AJ can observe, relate and conform to any audience type. He is well respected and adored by his fellow comedians! As a professional he is very good at making certain all aspects of the event are well thought out and achieved, flawlessly. Goes above and beyond! Highly recommended!
Comedian
I have been lucky to have worked with Mr. Hapenny on several occasions. First and foremost, he is a class act. Mr. Hapenny behaves in a very professional manner with whatever event he performs. Regardless if it's a fund raiser, a birthday party, or a farewell extravaganza, he carries himself accordingly, always gracious to his hosts and benefactors. Second, his performance. Mr. Hapenny has mastered the art of winning over an audience. He is genuine and dynamic onstage, and he has no qualms sharing the stage with others. His stage persona and routine is constantly evolving and developing, allowing him to reach out to the crowd and connect with his audience. No question about it, AJ Hapenny is the right comic to call.
Emcee, Comedian
A.J has an attention to detail that is truly amazing he is a pleasure to work with and I'm excited to hire him again. I would recommend his service as a comic and producer to anyone who asks!
