I wish I could give Doug more than 5 stars! We helped make our day absolutely fantastic! He showed up early, knew our venue and exactly what was best to make ceremony and reception go amazing. Doug called us and helped go through timeline and sent us a link to make our own playlist. During the reception he helped us stay on track so our photographer could leave on time, he even offered to get us water or whatever we needed many times throughout the night. I can't recommend Doug enough!

Doug was a phenomenal DJ and person at our reception. He met with us before the wedding to discuss our preferences and followed them exactly. He also helped us with other things such as dismissing tables to eat for our buffet-style dinner. His process for ensuring a successful day is methodical and detailed so we felt like we had nothing to worry about. His price was very fair compared to other options in our area (eastern Iowa). His understanding of the crowd energy was great and he was a fun emcee to have for our introductions. Overall, Doug was very personable and flexible so our reception went exactly how we hoped it would. I would highly recommend Doug to be a DJ at anyone’s wedding if they want to ensure their music tastes will be respected and their ideal reception will be realized.

Review Summary
This AI-generated summary is a snapshot of this vendor's ratings and feedback.
The DJ was professional, organized, and highly communicative, using an easy online portal and honoring song requests and do-not-play lists. On the wedding day they expertly managed timing, mic levels, table dismissals, and pivoted as needed. They kept energy high as a fun emcee with a packed dance floor and are highly recommended.Faith H

Doug was very proactive about communication before the wedding and we appreciated the fact that he went above and beyond to provide a monogram when we inquired about one. He also k...
ept everyone on the dance floor all night! The reason we removed 1 star was because we had 12 uplights in our contracted price (which were also discussed at our pre-wedding meeting) that he did not set up nor explain why this was not done. Also, there was some mild irritation with him surrounding our cake cutting. We told him we were planning to cut our cake, he announced the event to the group, and then disappeared. We had a song we set to play during and couldn’t find him to ask him to start it so we just proceeded without to keep the night moving. Otherwise, he had a good party going.

Kaylie, I am sorry that you didn't feel I deserved five stars for my services. Looking bac...
k at my notes, I did see that I agreed to provide up-lighting, but the room was very bright and I didn't feel it would have been noticed. I do not charge for up-lighting. The room was so bright, that the custom monogram that I had made for you was barely visible until the dance started. I payed $75.79 for the steel custom monogram and did not charge you for it. Also, looking at your event planning sheet, there was no song listed for the cake cutting on the information sheet, or request list. I was there the entire time. I checked with the photographer, then announced the cake cutting to the crowd. I understand that there is a lot going on at a reception and I did not have time to explain the lighting situation. I always strive to go above and beyond for my clients and appreciate your explaining of the four-star review.

He served us champaigne at our table and kept us laughing the entire night. He engaged all age groups, the volume was perfect, and listened to what the guests want! To this day, if we are guests at a wedding and Mobile 1 isn’t the DJ, we are already bored. Thanks, Doug for making our day perfect!

r wedding as I hoped for him and my husband to pre-record aucustic versions of all the music. They did 8 songs that played during the ceremony where my husband sang and he played the guitar. It truly made our day special and was the talk of the night. I would highly reccomend Moble One Productions to any and everyone! I have done so already as he was the DJ for one of my Best Friends weddings that I was the Matron of Honor in.
