"I booked Lance to DJ my wedding, and he was great! We gave him a list of songs we absolutely wanted played, but otherwise just told him the vibe and he curated it. We couldn't have pulled off the fabulous wedding we did without the perfect soundtrack. Thanks again!"

Elizabeth Melvin

"Lance and his team are absolute pros! They crushed it at The National Auction Association's Block Party during our conference. The energy, flow, and vibe they created made a huge difference — not just for the attendees but for me as Your Association."

"Lance did a great job at our wedding reception! We gave him a playlist with some of our favorite songs, and he not only worked them in perfectly but also added complementary tracks that kept the energy going all night. The dance floor was packed."

"Lance DJ'd my wedding, and WOW let me tell you he knows what he is doing. Not only does he bring THE energy on the dance floor, but he comes dressed to impress and is all smiles. We gave him a wedding playlist along with a few special requests and he nailed it."

"Lance was the perfect DJ for our sangeet and went above and beyond what we were expecting! The additional sound and lighting made the night even better. He killed it with the music and had everyone dancing, setting the tone for our wedding the next day! He is someone I highly recommend for any event!"

"Lance George is always a standout to work with. As a DJ and co-founder of One Idea Entertainment, he brings his full energy and heart to every event. Every time he's behind the booth, he elevates the party. As a violinist, I've had the chance to perform alongside him many times over the years, and I'm truly grateful to know him."
