Hi Jon,

Just wanted to drop you a quick mail to let you know that Tony did a great job at our weekend party, really professional and the music he played worked very well with the band we hired, wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him for other parties.

Thanks

We celebrated our little wedding here with 200 of our nearest and dearest. My partner and I both have big families so it was difficult finding somewhere to cater for us all. Charlotte our wedding coordinator and the rest of the staff were incredible and managed to pull it off better than we could have imagined! The food was spectacular. The venue was beautiful everything was just the way we wanted it! All the staff went above and beyond they were all fantastic! Oh and I cannot forget to mention the best DJ ever! We have lots of party’s and have used many DJs but this guy was the best ever! A night to remember forever!

Hi,

We would like to say a massive thank you to Tony at Unit 1 Entertainment for doing a great job at our wedding reception. The dance floor didn’t clear once, and Tony read our wedding guests so well that the dancing spilled off the dance floor! Would highly recommend and definitely use in the future! Thank you!

Hi Tony,

Just a note to say a big thank you for DJing so well at our wedding reception at Styal Lodge a few weeks ago. Everyone had a brilliant time and you judged the mood really well including a rewind to some old school disco towards the end!

Can you tell me what version of the Emeli Sande (next to me) song you used for our first dance please? It wasn’t the same version we had heard – only slightly different – but we preferred the version you played in which the backing beat kicks in a bit sooner.

Thanks for providing such a great service.

Best wishes, Luke & Emma

Dear Unit one entertainment,

 I just wanted to say a big thank you for providing such a brilliant DJ for the UK Nail Excellence Awards this weekend. Tony was absolutely fantastic — really professional, helpful, and kept the atmosphere going all night.

 Tony Played a great mix of music, read the room perfectly, and made sure everyone was up and enjoying themselves. Please do pass on our thanks and appreciation to him for helping make the evening such a success.

 We’d definitely love to work with you again for future events!

 Kind regards,
