What Makes Us Different
Planned Meetings
We’ll share our wisdom with you (because we’ve learned a lot over the years) while always giving you the final say. We will start you on your planning journey. We will lay out the road to party day success, and help you avoid common pitfalls. You will have a planning meeting with your hand-picked DJ/MC (aka your event day ally and party guru). During this meeting, you’ll get to know your DJ, and they will get to know you and your guests! We want to make your celebration uniquely yours.
Dancefloor Lighting
Lighting is very important! How important is it, you ask? So important that we include dance floor lighting with every package. Instead of dancing in a dark empty room, we prefer you and your guests enjoy an elevated atmosphere of fun by creating a dance floor experience. With lighting synced to great music, while washing your space in color, the result is a packed dance floor full of smiles.
Premium Sound + Microphones
Chances are, you’ve been to an event where the music has been too loud or kept cutting out. Maybe you’ve been to party where the announcements were nearly impossible to hear. At One Stop Party, we utilize high end line-array sound systems with subwoofers, which means that our systems can cover medium to large reception areas easily without overpowering guest conversation. Even Grandma will be able to hear the speeches, and your friends will love the fullness on the dance floor. All sound equipment is included in everyone of our packages.
Live Mixing
Not all DJs are the same. We have a team of real DJs. Not to go all DJ geek, but our skilled DJs can weave a soundtrack together consisting of your favorite songs with seamless transitions, packing your dance floor and providing an unforgettable dance celebration. Our DJs read the crowd and work hard to ensure all your “Must Plays” make it to the floor while keeping your guests included in the action.
Skilled Event Host
Every orchestra needs a conductor. Every event needs someone to help facilitate every detail on the day of the celebration. We are very detail oriented to ensure a smooth experience throughout your entire event including any announcements or formalities. We aren’t standup comedians. We are not the stereotypical corny, goofy, game playing-type DJs. Don’t get us wrong, we ARE interactive DJs, but we avoid uncomfortable, gimmicky tactics in order to make your event “fun“. Through training and our DJ’s skill sets, we are able to achieve an awesome result without the outdated, tacky techniques.
Online & Mobile Access
Maybe you’re like us, and would rather not track down an envelope and a stamp. Our booking and planning process takes place entirely online, so you can access it from anywhere. From initial contract to final planning guides, everything is easily accessible and editable (we think that’s a word) from your laptop, tablet, or phone. Of course, if you’d prefer to print, that’s always an option.
