    Steven did a great job with communication! With his Google Docs it made the day so much smoother! He helped coordinate so much which took another worry off our shoulders! He was also really flexible when we changed our send off to an earlier time! That was so helpful in its self! Would recommend to others!!

    Maddie, thank you so much! It was an absolute pleasure being part of your day! I’m so glad the planning documents helped take some of the stress off your shoulders—that’s exactly why I’m such a nerd about having everything organized ahead of time. 😂 And when plans change on the wedding day, we change with them! Moving the send-off earlier was no problem at all. Thank you for trusting me to help keep everything moving and for letting me be part of such an awesome day. Congratulations again to you both! ❤️

    The BEST DJ!

    Steven was absolutely amazing from the moment we had our consult call to our wedding day. He answered all of our questions and made us feel at ease throughout the planning process. Day of, he helped keep the good vibes going, helped us dance the electric slide, and ultimately was a huge part of what made our wedding day perfect. We would highly recommend Steven or anyone from his team for couples looking for a DJ!

    Steven Carter•Jul 5, 2026

    Victoria, thank you so much for this amazing review! From our first consult call through the wedding day, it was such a joy being part of the process with you. I’m so glad we could help you feel comfortable and supported along the way, and I loved getting to keep the good vibes going on the dance floor. Also, any wedding where we get to help with the Electric Slide is automatically a good one. Thank you again for trusting me and Carter Events and Entertainment with your day. Congratulations again!

    Steven brought the PARTY!!!!

    I cannot recommend Carter Entertainment enough! Steven was phenomenal!! He brought the energy, he had amazing ideas when my fiancé (now husband!) and I weren’t sure what we wanted for something. He got all our songs that we love in… he had us rocking on the dance floor all night and everyone had an amazing time!

    Steven Carter•Jul 5, 2026

Your wedding was such a blast, and I’m so glad we could help bring the energy, include the songs you love, and keep the dance floor rocking all night. It means the world that you trusted Carter Events and Entertainment with your day. Congratulations again to you and your husband!

    Such an amazing team!

    I cannot say enough good things about Steven, Angie, and the team! I booked Carter Events for my DJ and photobooth about a year and a half before my wedding. Even before booking, Steven was incredibly helpful with all of my questions. After about a week of back and forth, I felt very confident moving forward with them. About six months later, I decided I wanted a Day-of Coordinator and chose to go through Carter Events since I already had them booked for DJ. Again, every question I had prior to officially booking was answered quickly and thoroughly. They sent over forms to fill out (DJ, DOC, timeline), which gave me a really good starting point for planning. We had a couple meetings leading up to the day, and they were so helpful. We went through everything, which made me feel really comfortable going into the wedding. The energy Steven brought was amazing. Steven was great. His setup looked amazing, and everything we asked for was incorporated in a really tasteful way. My fiancé wanted pirate shanties at some point during the night, and Steven worked them into cocktail hour in a way that didn’t feel tacky at all. There were also things I couldn’t decide on, like the final dance, and I told Steven to just go for it—and what he came up with was amazing. All night, he played music that matched exactly what we liked. He turned away requests for songs he didn’t think we would like (and he was right), and overall just kept the energy up with bangers all night. On the day of, everyone showed up on time and got right to work. Angie was a huge help with everything—from decor, to managing people, to being the middle person between me and the vendors. She was incredibly friendly, but also very no-nonsense, which is exactly what you need. She kept everything moving and made sure things actually got done. She helped keep the groomsmen on track, handled communication seamlessly, and executed my decor exactly how I had envisioned it based on my notes. I have a hard time giving up control, but I felt completely comfortable putting everything in Angie’s hands for the day. From start to finish, they made the entire process seamless and stress-free, which made a huge difference throughout planning and on the wedding day. Overall, if I had to plan a wedding again (or any big event), I would 100% choose Carter Events for both DJ and Day-of Coordinator. They were one of the best decisions we made, and I truly feel like I got everything I paid for—and then some.

    Nicole… this one meant a lot. Seriously—thank you. From the first round of questions all the way through 3/14, you showed up ready to build something intentional, and that makes our job so much more than just “show up and press play.” You trusted the process, you trusted us—and that’s where the magic actually happens. I’ve got to say it straight: pirate shanties during cocktail hour could’ve gone very sideways 😅… but you gave us the green light to do it right, and that’s exactly the kind of creative trust we love working with. Same with the final dance—you let go of the wheel for a moment, and that’s usually where the best moments live. Angie’s going to smile when she reads this (and probably pretend she won’t). What you said about her being friendly but no-nonsense? That’s exactly her lane. She cares deeply, but she’s there to get things done—and done right. Hearing that you felt comfortable handing things over, especially when that’s not easy for you, is huge. That’s the goal every time. And from all of us—me, Angie, and the team—thank you for letting us be part of something that mattered. Not just the big moments, but all the little ones in between that people don’t always see. You didn’t just have a wedding… you built a night people felt. If you ever need us again—for anything—you already know we’re in. —Steven, Angie, & the Carter Events Team 🎧
