1,2 Step Entertainment

gy level very high! I have personally been to a lot of weddings where the DJs play a lot the of the same "typical" wedding songs and Gary made sure not to make our a "typical" wedding dance floor. Thank you for make our day the best day ever!

o check with us before playing any requests. We had a great time and so did all of our guests! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone else in need of a DJ. We would hire them again in a heartbeat if we ever have the need in the future! Thanks Tom!

, and he kept in communication with me the entire time leading up to our big day. We even met with him in person to go over the details so that everything would run smoothly. When the day finally came, he directed the entire thing without missing a beat. He helped to make our day so special and so much fun. The dance floor wasn’t empty once the entire night. Our friends and family are still raving about how fun of a wedding it was and how great the music was. He’s even doing my cousin’s wedding February 2020! Highly, highly, highly recommend!

ime conversations just to discuss music.. who would’ve thought it would be so hard to pick music?! Tom made it that much easier for us! I couldn’t recommend Tom and his crew more! They made our celebration amazing!

super reasonable, especially for the quality and level of service you're getting. The build-your-own-playlist software they have was really easy to use. We can't wait to recommend him to our friends!

a fantastic job at the wedding! Thank you for being accommodating and kind!

as packed the entire night! I really appreciate all Tom's hard work to make our reception amazing. He stayed on schedule and was the perfect DJ for our big day! He even mixed us a custom track for my dad and I dance to! Book 1,2 Step entertainment, now! You will not be disappointed! Thank you, Shelley and Rob

s. We could tell everyone had a ton of fun and that he kept the party going. So many of our friends and family came forward to tell us how much they loved our wedding and DJ Mo kept coming up! He was definitely a highlight of everyone's night. When people ask for suggestions on a DJ, we know who to recommend! We found him at our buddy's wedding a few years back and didn't look anywhere else. DJ Mo is one of a kind!

nces, cake cutting, speeches etc....the music selection was phenomenal and Tom read our crowd great, keeping everyone out on the dance floor! We had people of all ages busting out moves! Tom did our ceremony as well. He gave us suggestions as to what types of music to play for pre-ceremony and dinner/cocktail and he was spot on! I could go on and on about how awesome our night was because of Tom and 1 2 step entertainment! Our guests loved making requests and having them played in a very timely manner! Highly highly recommend! Tom was definitely the backbone to our reception running smoothly!

and that they would be there early to set up/ get to know us. Maurice (DJ Mo) was our backup and everything from our ceremony to reception went seamlessly. Maurice knew our music, accommodated us with a last minute request by playing a recording of the best-man toast and he made sure everyone was out on the dance floor all night long. He kept the energy going by actual getting out and dancing with us and our guests! What could have been a headache with other companies/DJs that don’t provide back-ups turned into one of the highlights of our night. Would definitely recommend 1-2 Step Entertainment.

because he played multiple line dances in a row. I love line dances but doing them all in a row was just too much and I was too tired. Other than that everything was great!

and it went off without a hitch! It was perfect. We had 200 people attend and by the very last song there was probably close to 100 people still there ON THE DANCE FLOOR! We even convinced him to sneak in one more last minute song ;) the floor was packed all night and all I kept hearing after the wedding was “your dance floor was packed from start to finish, we never see that. Your DJ was awesome!” Thanks so much 1,2 step and Suril!!!!!!!!

and my sister actually wants to book him for her wedding next September! Thank you!! Cheers!

otographers too. I'm really hoping that my sister chooses 1, 2 Step Entertainment for her wedding next year! I would have these guys at every party if we could! Everyone must have 1, 2 Step Entertainment at their parties!

til the end! I received so many compliments on how awesome he was! Thank you for making our day so special

d of and if guests would request them, he made sure they came to ask me first if they were OK to play. He had mine and Nate's best interest in mind at all times. I sent him our timeline for the day so he made sure to try and keep us on track as much as he could, which is amazing because he was not only a great DJ but also a coordinator. I will always recommend 1,2 Step to any friend or family!

ll out and the night was PERFECT! We had DJ Quincy and he kept people on the dance floor all night long! Definitely recommend!

ted and just really knew what he was doing. Do yourself a favor and book them as your DJ - you will not regret it!!!

th this company!

the “garter put on” part because we weren’t sure if the people who caught the bouquet and the garter would feel comfortable so Tommy suggested we could ask them that night if they would be willing to and I am SO glad we did because it turned out to be one of the funniest/best parts of the night. Thank you 1,2 step entertainment for being an important part of our wedding and for all of your hard work! You guys really made our night perfect!

ad a hard time contacting him, he was very unresponsive to emails. After setting up a meeting with him, we were told that he would no longer be our DJ and now Shawn was our DJ. Shawn was very prompt in his responses and was flexible and made our prior appointment with Quincy work within his schedule. During our meeting, I was a little worried that Shawn didn't understand the vibe we were going for at our wedding but the end my husband convinced me he would do a good job. The day of he arrived on time and had everything set up and ready to go well in advance. Shawn did a great job on the music but when I came to running the reception (which Tom, the owner, had mentioned multiple times in our original meeting that the DJ controls the flow of the reception) it really lacked direction. We specifically asked Shawn to announce and ask people to make sure they sign the guest book, as well as to let people know when the late-night snack and our dessert was served and those announcements were never made. I think my biggest disappointment of the night was the lack of hype around our special dances (Our first dance, father/daughter dance, mother/son dance and anniversary dance). There were no announcements to let guests know these were going on. Specifically, during the anniversary dance, there were many couples that weren't on the floor because the lack of announcements. When I asked Shawn to ask all married couples to come to the floor again and to start over he waited till the end then said something like "ooh well that didn't go how I wanted it to, let’s do it over", at that point I told him to forget. He didn't even call out my aunt and uncle who have been married the longest and ask for a round of applause or anything. I was VERY disappointed with the lack of direction during my ceremony.

email from someone in the company other than Tom informing me of my event DJ, that being DJ Gary. That was my first disappointment because I requested DJ Quincy. I had the understanding that it was not 100% guaranteed but before booking, Tom told me that DJ Quincy was available for that weekend and that “It’s very rare that a request doesn’t equal out to a client getting the DJ but in cases where personal conflicts/illnesses come into play, we have a back up ready for you.” It was at that point that I decided to book with them. So when I got the email about DJ Gary of course I asked Tom what happened to Quincy and he told me he was DJing another wedding in Makinac that weekend. He assured me that DJ Gary is amazing and travels to New York with him to do his families weddings. That was good enough assurance for me and I moved on. Gary was a really nice guy and accommodating whenever we talked to him but he dropped the ball soooo greatly on my wedding day that I ended my night in tears and didn’t dance at all (outside of my first dance with my husband and my dance with my father). I walked into the ballroom to see a preview of the decorations and the set up...and to my horror the uplighting was green...like a lime green or green with a hue of yellow. I asked Gary about it and he told me that was the closest thing to gold(which is what I requested) that they had. It wasn’t even CLOSE to gold no matter how you tilted your head or squint your eyes so I told him to just leave them white. I hated the white but green was NOT an option. He also could not use uplighting along one of the walls because there weren’t any outlets. Well maybe they should have extension cords or wireless up lighting. Nonetheless it was a complete waste of $300!!! After dinner, I informed the dj that my husband and I had to go and take some more pictures. We’d been working around hot, humid weather all day and it was finally cooler. I hated to be pulled away because the party music was just getting started. I also asked him to pass out the scratch off tickets or let everyone come up and get one. I said make sure you mention the theme of our favors “for richer or for poorer”. He commented back about how it was cool and clever and I told him I got the idea off Pinterest. I left at that point to go and take pictures. We were gone maybe an hour but we had a dj, a photo booth and we already greeted each of our guest at their tables. There was nothing left to do but party the night away. After we finished taking pictures by the water, I was zooming back to the building so I could get back to the reception. I bypassed all my guest outside thinking they were just hanging out outside(the bar was outside and the outdoor games we brought). Once I entered the building my friend asked where have I been and that she thought we left. I told her that we were taking pictures and let’s just go dance. I walked into the ballroom and its like the room stood still...ALL OF OUR GUEST WERE GONE. The decorations were being broken down and DJ GARY WAS PACKING UP THE UPLIGHTING rolling the cords up in his arm. I was sooo confused because it’s so early. Then some of our friends from outside came in to give us hugs, congratulations, and goodbyes. With each person that hugged me, I got more sad because just last year I partied the night away at their weddings. We spent so much money and here it is 8:30, and everyone is leaving. I asked my husband to go see if Gary passed out the scratch off tickets and a moments later he was walking back to me with a stack of 150 scratch off tickets in his hand. He told me that Gary said he forgot. So there’s another $150 wasted on scratch offs. I was trying to not let everything get to me, we still have the DJ for another 2.5 hours but then the venue cut all the lights on thinking that the reception was over because of course that’s how it appeared...and then that’s when I lost it. I ran off in tears. My groomsmen hyped me back up and we went to a club in full wedding attire and parties until 2am. I had a blast. This should’ve just been the original plan. The music/ dj is the single most important part of a reception. It’s a huge deal and it was a complete FAIL. Dj Gary did not mention to my guest that we were off to take pictures and would be back soon...causing everyone to think that we left. Also from what I heard from family and friends who were there is that they hustled to one song in the beginning and that his music selections never got the people back on the floor and that only the kids were dancing. So after an hour of an empty dance floor and not many guest left in the room, they started to break down the decorations and assume the night was over. I want a do over so bad but you only get married once, right?

ave been told by multiple guests that we had amazing music and it’s because the DJ’s at 1-2 Step know how to read the room and play the music according. I am so thankful to have had Tom and that he was able to make it such a memorable night for everyone!

asy to use and he played all the songs we loved! Thank you soon much again!!

and professional. He made sure details I didn't even think of were covered! The day of the wedding, we had Ryan and he was fantastic. He was great at communicating with us before the wedding, professional, and timely. He knew the right songs to keep everyone happy and dancing! We also used their lighting which helped with the ambiance of the venue. We are so happy we chose 1,2 step for our wedding!

n after the music turned off. It was a blast and I definitely would recommend them to anyone. Great DJs for a reasonable price!

othly! Him and his wife helped pick out some songs for us that I didn’t have time to sit and think about. They were awesome!!!! Great price for a great time!

Exactly what I was looking for! So happy we were referred to him!

where no one was on the dance floor. This was not the case at all, and several of my childhood friends spent literally the whole time on the dance floor because it was one good song after another. The online planning tool was a great way to plan for certain songs way in advance, and Quincy did an awesome job of adding great dance songs in with our "must play" songs. He was singing and dancing along with the music, and was clearly having a good time, which made it that much more fun for our guests. Even planning our wedding from afar was easy with this team, as we had an initial virtual meeting before booking with them and got all of our questions answered. Highly recommend 1,2 Step Entertainment!

l night, even if we got off of schedule. Thank you so much!

king with us when it came to any requests. The team at 1,2 Entertainment was great too, they were great at answering any questions and accommodating to our requests. They also made picking the songs and sharing our timeline really easy. I HIGHLY recommend them!!

wonderfully. Thank you guys for such a wonderful night! only wish I had more time in the night to have danced more!

t we had talked about and the flow was seamless. Everyone from the bartender to our priest was dancing! Kids, adults, from my parents and their coworkers, to my bridesmaids, everyone was having a great time. Tom played a great range of music so there was something for everyone. He was also a great MC and really helped that first part of the night go perfectly, from introductions to speeches, to the cake cutting and the first dances. Everyone at 1,2 Step is friendly and clearly masters at what they do! They helped make the day go smoothly and were such an awesome part of our wedding! Our guests have since told us over and over how great the music was and what a fun time they had! I wouldn't recommend anyone else! They are the best!

thing ran as smooth as possible. Our DJ was so much fun and kept everyone up dancing all night. I couldn't have asked for a better party!

ed on guests . He kept us informed of things we weren't aware of and even did what he could to fix other issues that came up. He was so genuine , patient, and caring .My coworkers were still talking about him today!

pany is VERY passionate about what they do and it really shows. The are also very affordable. For what they provide and their overall professionalism, you cannot find a better price. Lastly, they have a variety of music to choose from and are very accommodating with what you want to hear/don't want to hear. They make a personal online site for your wedding with a timeline, schedule and entire song library to choose from. We highly recommend them for your wedding day - you won't be disappointed!

d events around to make sure that my matron of honor/Sister would not miss any of the big events during the night due to her having to go and check on her baby. I could not have asked for a better DJ and company to work with. Tom made everything from the first meeting to the last meeting a piece of cake and made you feel comfortable to reach out during the process for any questions or concerns! A DJ that can get the non dancers out on the dance floor and have fun, is one great DJ!! You want to throw a party of the year and trust it will all go smooth? Then hire 1,2 step entertainment..you won't regret it! Thank You Tom and 1,2 Step Entertainment for an amazing day and putting my dreams into reality. Everyone loved the music that night!!

k! He even worked within my budget, and there are so many options, it'd be hard not to afford these guys. But that says nothing about the quality of their work! Fast forward to our first meeting with our DJ, Quincy. We could not have been happier. He is a great guy. Very professional, and also a lot of fun. He ran with every request we had. The reception was great and flowed perfectly, (even when our time line ran into some hiccups due to the limo showing up too early!) He read the crowd and the music was perfect. If I ever need a DJ again, I'll be going with these guys. Until then, I'll just be telling everyone else how great they are!

ked up there, he was dancing and I could tell he enjoyed himself, making everyone else enjoy themselves too! I highly recommend!!

st a nice, friendly person who worked hard to make our wedding great and make sure it was exactly as we wanted. I could tell throughout the day just how experienced he was at all this stuff and if you asked for something, Tom was on it. Great experience.

The staff at my venue said they have never seen so many people on the dance floor at one time! The online planning form was a great tool that helped me pick out the best songs to be used throughout the day. The staff at 1,2 Step were very attentive as well in helping with the planning process and they would send emails to help with picking out song choices or for planning ideas. I really wanted my wedding to be a giant dance party and that was definitely the reality I received. Thank you to Tom, Maurice, and the 1,2 Step staff for being so amazing!!

ertainment needs!

day of, and everyone commented on how great the music was! People were dancing all night! Tom helped keep us on schedule (it's easy to forget things when you're being pulled in 1000 different directions ) and even met up with us on FaceTIme to go over everything and make sure everyone's names were pronounced properly. Even willing to adjust on the fly when we changed our schedule a bit and had him announce an additional person... Overall great service, good price, Tom rocks!!

e aware of our schedule and timing. He was out on the dance floor whenever possible making sure everyone was having a good time and his music selection was on point. I had multiple people comment on the music and our MC. Tommy was even able to download some requests on the spot and made sure we were aware of any unusual requests from our guests. Overall we couldn't have asked for a better MC/DJ.

g with current song choices as well as always respecting our no play list, which was important to us. We couldn't have asked for a better Dj and would recommend him and his company to all of our family and friends!

for and kept the dance floor packed all night. The online planner was so nice to have and really helped us keep track of everything. I have had so many compliments from our guests on the awesome music that was played at our reception. Our reception was everything I ever hoped it would be and 1,2 Step Entertainment was a huge part of that. Thanks for everything!

nsive, accommodating, and helpful throughout the planning process. Coordinating a wedding from afar can be difficult, but their online system and willingness to call or Skype with us made it incredibly simple. Most importantly, DJ Mo did a fantastic job. He really listened to our vision and was able to make it a reality. He read the room perfectly, and the end result was a party that was fun for everyone in attendance -- even the grandparents! We can't recommend 1, 2 Step highly enough! :)

the way

t a fun dj we had and they have never been to a wedding where everyone danced all night long! Tom is amazing! I would highly recommend 1,2 Step Entertainment, you will don't be disappointed.

our wedding. Both my husband and I felt that music was one of the critical items for our big day, so we wanted to find someone that was professional, that we connected with, and that we trusted to make our party great - 1,2 Step met all of this criteria and so much more. Tom was even willing to meet with us a few days before the wedding to make sure everything was planned out. Not only did Tom play great music, but he kept the flow of our entire day going - from the ceremony all the way to the last dance. Tom paid attention to details that we didn't even know were needed until he did them! I would recommend 1,2 Step to anyone I know getting married.

ple ask us for his information as well. He was amazing-I would definitely recommend him and 1,2 Step Entertainment for your wedding. They were very reasonably priced and I loved their planning form online too. It made it very easy to organize all the information. We had a blast!

I already knew we wanted and save as I went. When I met with Tom, he already knew everything I had imagined for our night and combed out the last of the details. I never had to worry about a thing the entire night, Tom took care of it all. I loved every moment!

ts were on the dance floor all night long! They are definitely the group to book if you're looking to have a great time!

people dancing all night long. I will never forget at the end of the night when the bar had closed and the DJ was supposed to be done, I looked around the dance floor and 90+ people were still dancing like crazy! We ended up extending longer because we were all having so much fun. In addition to the incredible DJing, Tom is a good guy that is fun and easy to work with. He checked in several times leading up to the wedding and let us be as involved or hands off as we wanted with song choices. He also coordinated well with all of our other vendors and kept the night running smoothly. I've already recommended Tom to several friends and know you won't be disappointed choose 1, 2 Step for your wedding.

nytime I had any questions or concerns they would always get back to me very very quickly. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Thanks Tom for making our day so amazing.

ould definitely recommend using them at your next event.

looking for more of a mix of 70's disco, 80's pop, and 90's R&B/hip hop, Tom name dropped a bunch of songs that were already going to be on our must play list. So I knew he understood us. Also, we told him we didn't want any of the crappy music that is currently on the radio played at the wedding. We didn't even have to specify, we never heard one of those songs played all night. He played the GOOD new stuff, and the GOOD old stuff, and everyone kept complimenting how they really liked our DJ. He was on time, professional, fun, he made sure everything stayed on schedule, if was unsure about a song request he ran it by me first. Tom is also really talented and skilled at mashing up songs, people were really impressed with the different kinds of songs he would mix together and fade into each other. Sound quality was great, the GOBO design was really neat, pricing was very reasonable. I would not have changed a thing. Super happy we went with 1, 2 Step for our DJ, our wedding was honestly perfect and flawless and Tom definitely had something to do with that! Thanks, Tom!!!

stom wedding "gobo" were beautiful. They provide a wide range of music, per our request Tom and Moe played soft rock during cocktail hour, classical musical during dinner and then hyped up the party for dancing. We got so many compliments from our guests on the DJ and MC, the biggest compliments came from recent brides who wanted to know how we found them and said they wished they had known about them too! The best attribute is that they pay attention to what the guests are enjoying make sure they are having a good time, we couldn't ask for anything more! Thank you 1,2 Step Entertainment for making our wedding day a huge success! A++

time, got set up on his own, and was instrumental in making sure that we stayed on schedule and that everyone was having a good time. But most important... the dance floor was packed all night! 1,2 Step was more affordable than the DJs that any of my friends used and I can honestly say they were much better. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

took the time to meet with us in-person to go through our reception and our vision, and to make sure our day was as special as we hoped. At our wedding, Tom and Ethan did such a wonderful job, and we couldn't have been happier with how the night went! They were both so full of energy, nailed the emcee portions, paced everything out perfectly, and kept the dance floor packed all night long! All in all, an amazing party and we couldn't have done it without their awesome service. I'd hire their team again in a heart beat and highly recommend them. Thank you, 1 2 Step!

use to plan out the music and plan out the night. Moe, our DJ, showed up on time and kept everyone moving even when the time line fell apart because of the weather - it was 90+ degrees and it was an outdoor wedding. I would recommend them to everyone.

services!
