Brian, our DJ was fantastic. He was so attentive and followed every request to a T. He was SO happy for us and truly genuine in his well wishes for me and my husband. He kept the dance floor packed all night, filled in the blanks where I couldn’t come up songs, and kept everything running smoothly! We appreciate him so much, and wish Mr. Brian the absolute best. Jim, the owner, was also extremely communicative and so easy to work with and kind. It’s more than just a business to them, they actually care about your special day.

ELEVATED EXPERIENCES | UNFORGETTABLE MEMORIES BRINGING MORE to the DANCE FLOOR SINCE 2009 Your wedding will be a celebration they'll talk about for years to come. But why they'll talk about it is what's got you worried. Good vibes. Epic music. A packed dance floor. Or, a party that falls flat? It could go either way. Which is why you need to know that those you've entrusted to help you with this once-in-a-lifetime party, actually know how to throw one. OUR STYLE IS: CONNECTION AND CREATIVITY. VISION AND PERSONALIZATION. ENGAGEMENT AND ENTERTAINMENT.

I'm so happy that I booked Kentucky Pro DJ for my wedding reception! From the very start they were so engaged and communicative, making the process leading up to the ceremony so fun and easy. DJ Matt Mason kept our guests smiling and dancing the entire reception. It was truly a 10/10 experience!

At Abe One DJ’s, we are passionate about providing the perfect musical backdrop for your special events. Whether it’s a wedding, private party, corporate event, or any other important gathering, our team of enthusiastic DJ’s will play the music you love and your guests will want to hear. With over four decades of experience, you can rest assured that we have the knowledge and expertise to handle any type of event, big or small. And because we have a team of DJ’s on hand, you never have to worry about a backup plan. We’ve got you covered!

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!

Lionel was the DJ at my wedding in 2018 and did an amazing job! He was prompt, communicative, and met up with us before the wedding to go over the songs we requested and what we wanted. Also, even though I was quoted a lower price that was not the wedding rate, he honored the price for us. Our wedding guests had an amazing time, and that was largely thanks to the music and Lionel being a great DJ. I recommend him!

Jeremy and his team at JD Entertainment are absolute professionals. I've worked with Jeremy on multiple weddings now, and every single time he shows up prepared, coordinated, and ready to execute flawlessly. He doesn't just play music — he works with me to manage the flow of the entire reception. He communicates with all of us vendors beforehand, knows the timeline cold, and adjusts on the fly when needed. What really impresses me is how he reads the room and keeps couples and their guests moving toward the dance floor instead of getting stuck in lulls. The energy he brings keeps the party going all night. If you're a bride or groom looking for a DJ who's a true professional and a joy to work with, Jeremy is your guy.
