Thank you guys again for everything my day was perfect!

John Covey was our DJ for our wedding, we are kind of untraditional, and he knew exactly how to roll with us for everything that was traditional to the things that weren't. The music was perfect! all the guests really enjoyed the song selection that we both kind of chose and I let him have free range with the genres I chose. it all went very smooth and was so perfectly timed! I would definitely give John a 10/10 and we all appreciate the services he provided. it was all amazing and appreciate everything that was done!!

High-Energy Dance Floor

If you want a packed dance floor all night, you need to hire Abe One DJ's! From the very first meeting, they were incredibly professional and really listened to what we wanted. They read the crowd perfectly and played a mix that kept all of our guests—from our college friends to our grandparents—dancing until the lights came on. The planning portal made organizing our timeline and must-play songs completely stress-free. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Perfect Choice

Abe One DJ's was the perfect choice for our wedding day entertainment. From the very first interaction, their communication was prompt, clear, and detailed, which gave us confidence that they would deliver on the day. And deliver they did! Abe One DJ's were incredibly affordable, yet their performance was anything but cheap. They were truly great entertainers, keeping the dance floor packed all night long with an amazing sound system and a knack for reading the crowd. My 90-year-old grandmother even got up to dance, testament to their ability to play all the right tunes. We couldn't be happier with the service Abe One DJ's provided - they truly helped make our special day unforgettable.

Best DJ Company Ever!

WOW... just WOW. I hired Abe One DJ's for my wedding, and he crafted an incredible entertainment experience that was simply the best I've ever encountered!! Understanding the significance of having a great DJ for my big day, I interviewed multiple candidates, ultimately choosing Abe One DJ's because he truly grasped my vision and exuded the confidence needed to bring it to life... And he definitely delivered!! My wedding had an incredibly diverse crowd, and he skillfully catered to everyone's tastes. Throughout and after the event, guests praised his ability to read the room, sustain the energy, and creatively transition between songs, keeping everyone dancing the entire time! At one point, over 50 guests (including grandparents) were out on the dance floor swag surfing together—a core memory that I replay in my mind and on video since he also captured this fantastic moment for us!! Additionally, he was an excellent MC, engaging our guests during downtime with entertaining anecdotes. He even joined us on the dance floor to teach us new line dances. His preparedness was impressive; for instance, I had pre-requested him to announce my college alumni for recognition but forgot to request our fight song. When I approached him in the moment and asked if he could play it, he had it downloaded and ready to go without missing a beat!! Lastly, I genuinely appreciate the platform he uses to orchestrate the entertainment experience for the day. It’s incredibly user-friendly and allows you to upload songs straight from your own Spotify playlists. I could not be more thankful for him sharing his talents and playing such a vital role in creating a day we'll always remember. Thank you so much, Abe One DJ's!

Remarkable Finesse!

Abe One DJs served as a vendor at my wedding, creating an unforgettable experience. True to its name, "all in one," the company offers a diverse range of services designed to elevate your event. DJ John Covey Cole was exceptionally considerate and meticulous throughout the entire occasion, ensuring everything unfolded seamlessly. He provided me with an app that allowed me to curate all the songs I wished to feature at my wedding, along with the event's timeline. Thanks to this innovative system, he was fully aware of any changes and my expectations as a bride. John was vibrant and made certain that everything adhered to the schedule, keeping everyone on the dance floor, reveling in the festivities. Beyond organizational tools, he also gave me a direct phone number for any last-minute changes or updates I needed to communicate. His offerings included an array of options such as strobe lights, dancing in the clouds, fun accessories for guests, colored lights, personalized wedding logos, and much more. I cannot express how grateful I was to have John at my wedding, hosting one of the most significant days of my life.

When it came to music, John skillfully reviewed and analyzed my chosen playlist, discovering additional songs that perfectly matched my musical taste. Unlike other DJs who simply play tracks without mixing or transition poorly, John seamlessly blended one song into the next with remarkable finesse.

John was fantastic!!

I wholeheartedly recommend selecting Abe One DJ's for any occasion! After my meeting with Spencer from Abe One DJ's, I realized that their DJ service was the ideal option! They are incredibly friendly, exceptionally organized, and we felt an amazing vibe from him. It was clear that opting for Abe One DJ's would ensure our DJ was cool and far from cheesy. Will took the time to understand our musical tastes and then picked John to DJ our special day.

John was fantastic. The audience loved him; he ensured that everyone was enjoying themselves, and our dance floor was packed for most of the evening.

Every penny spent was truly worth it!

To start, I must highlight the exceptional service we received; the DJing was flawless. This was one of our primary concerns for the wedding, as a poor DJ can quickly ruin the atmosphere. However, I can confidently say they exceeded our expectations and handled last-minute changes with ease. We even proposed a custom song for the Father-bride dance, and not only did they accommodate our request, but they also created the track for us. Yet, that wasn't even the highlight! Abe One DJs were absolutely top-notch and kept the dance floor alive. The photo booth was an essential addition! Our family and friends couldn't stop raving about how it was the best wedding they had ever attended, and Abe One DJs played a significant role in that. You absolutely need to book them—trust me on this. If you want your bride to enjoy a stress-free experience, this is the DJ you need. They also provided an impressive worksheet filled with suggestions and advice throughout the planning process. Every penny spent was truly worth it.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
