    Book them!

    I got married on 10/21/23 and we had Steven as our DJ, and omg what a match made in heaven! First and foremost, I wanted someone that was energetic and fun, but wow, they exceeded any sort of expectations I had. Steven was professional, prompt, organized, a fabulous listener, and so FUN. He truly cares about the people he DJs for and he makes you and your requests/wants the priority and executes them. He kept everything on schedule, communicated amazingly with my other vendors, and even made sure to steal me away to make sure I had some time on the dance floor. He was so amazingly sweet and I couldn't have found a better DJ. I truly wish I could put all of the positive feelings I had about him into words, but what I will say for certain is, you won't regret booking them. They're passionate about what they do, and they'll make sure to help in any way they can to help make your vision come to life.

    Carter Events and Entertainment's reply:

    Hello Samantha,

    Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your incredibly sweet and heartwarming words! I'm overjoyed to hear that your wedding day was everything you hoped for, and I'm truly honored to have been a part of it.

    Your kind compliments about my energy, professionalism, and dedication to making your day special mean the world to me. Ensuring your requests and wants took center stage was my pleasure, and I'm glad I could keep everything on schedule and communicate effectively with your vendors. Stealing a moment away for you to enjoy the dance floor is always a priority for me!

    I'm deeply touched by your sentiments, and I appreciate your recommendation. If there's anything you need in the future or if you know anyone looking for similar services, please don't hesitate to reach out. Wishing you a lifetime filled with love, joy, and wonderful moments!

    Warm regards,

    They were awesome!

    If you want one of the best DJs & a fun Photo Booth for your guests, look no further than Carter Events & Entertainment!

    Steven the owner was our DJ & Sam was our Photo Booth operator & they were AWESOME! We honestly can’t say enough good things about our experience having Carter Events & Entertainment for our special day! Steven was so engaging & helpful during the planning process. On the day of he really helped keep things on track, was a funny & engaging MC, & we got so many compliments on the music selection & his DJing skills. (More than one guest said they were having a hard time leaving the dance floor to go get a new drink from the bar because there were multiple back-to-back great songs. 😂) Our Photo Booth was also a hit & we loved having physical & digital copies of all the photos!

    Carter Events & Entertainment helped make our day so fun & memorable & we definitely would recommend them. 🤍

    Carter Events and Entertainment = ONE STOP SHOP!

    What is there to say about Steven other than "WOW!" He was the life of the party and ensured that party never stopped. We are very grateful for the attention to detail Steven provided for our whole wedding day. The music for our ceremony was perfectly timed and the microphone work was outstanding. I would recommend Carter Events and Entertainment to any couple looking for a hands on, professional, FUN wedding DJ/sound service company! THANK YOU STEVEN!

    Even my dad was impressed...

    We hired Steven for sound and design services for our wedding this past month and - my goodness, there are simply no words to express how amazing our service was. From running onto the dance floor and joining folks in the merriment to snagging me (the Bride) for a spin around the dance floor, Steven's experience, professionalism, fun-loving energy and overall vibe is something I am struggling to articulate without leaving a 12-page review. My father, who isn't impressed often [hence the title of the review], was the first one to rave to me about Steven after the wedding. He was in awe of how smoothly everything went and the energy Steven brought to the dance floor. I truly felt heard and understood by Steven every step of the way and to say he went above and beyond would not do justice to the amazing support he showed us throughout the planning process. I'm already planning a vow renewal to have an excuse to hire Steven again. You will not be disappointed if you choose Steven + Carter Events and Entertainment.

    Carter Events and Entertainment's reply:

    Hello Rocio,

    I am beyond grateful for your incredibly kind words and am so thrilled to have been a part of your special day. Reading your review brought such joy to me, and I can't thank you enough for taking the time to share your experience.

    It warms my heart to know that you felt the energy and fun-loving vibe I strive to bring to every event. Your father's praise means the world to me, especially knowing that he isn't easily impressed. I'm elated that everything went smoothly and that you felt heard and understood throughout the planning process. Your satisfaction is the greatest reward.

    I'm genuinely touched by your plans for a vow renewal, and I would be honored to be a part of it. Thank you for choosing Carter Events and Entertainment. If there's anything you need in the future or if you know anyone looking for similar services, please don't hesitate to reach out.

    Wishing you a lifetime filled with love and beautiful moments,

    Steven

    The Best Vendor out there!

    I couldn’t recommend Carter Events enough! I stumbled upon Carter Events in my search for a DJ. What I found was much more than that. I could not believe how many services were available from the same company. How neat is that?! Since we did already hire an officiant we did not need that service but would otherwise have taken full advantage. We did, however, utilize the day of coordinator along with the DJ and Photo Booth. I loved utilizing all three services with one main person to coordinate with; it made it easier and much less emails to write. Not only does Carter Events offer many services but they are top notch too! The communication was prompt and clear, and any questions I had in this unfamiliar territory were answered with an eagerness to help. Carter Events sincerely cares about your big day and will help ease the process in any way. My sister also utilized Carter Events for her wedding and I’d recommend to anyone planning their big day. We loved working with Steven and his crew. Some members I did not meet until the day of but I wasn’t worried because I knew, from all the communication and sincere care for our wedding, that anyone from Carter Events would be just as great at Steven himself. Thank you so much for making our day special!

    Carter Events and Entertainment's reply:

    Hello Hannah,

    Thank you immensely for your heartfelt and glowing review! It was an absolute pleasure being a part of your special day and providing multiple services for you. I'm delighted to hear that your experience with Carter Events was everything you hoped for.

    I'm glad that the availability of multiple services under one roof made the coordination process smoother for you, and I appreciate your kind words about our prompt and clear communication. Making the wedding planning process as stress-free as possible is always a priority for us, and I'm thrilled that you felt the genuine care we have for our clients and their big day.

    It warms my heart to know that you and your sister had positive experiences with Carter Events. Your trust in us is truly appreciated, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to contribute to the success of your wedding day.

    Best Wedding DJ!

    We had used Steven + his company for my sister's wedding and it was a no brainer that we were going to hire him for our wedding! Steven is professional, easy to communicate with and we were so confident in his abilities to provide the music on our wedding day. Everything went off without a hitch and we were on the dance floor ALL NIGHT! Steven knows how to get the party started - and knows how to keep it going! He also played all our requested songs and truly did an incredible job. Don't hesitate - hire Steven for your wedding DJ!

    Book Steven!!!

    Steven was the absolute best choice we made for our wedding day (besides marrying each other)! He was our officiant while his lovely wife Angie did sound, and then he DJ'd our reception. He was incredibly punctual and communicative prior to the wedding and took all our suggestions and edits and ran with them. He was incredibly professional and organized for the rehearsal and day of. The day of, he was an incredible ball of energy and light and we had the best time! Our guests were so impressed with his energy and my husband and I couldn't stop remarking about what a great time we were having! Book Steven! He's worth it and more!!!!

    Carter Events was amazing!

    My husband and I booked Carter Events as a DJ for our wedding. We cannot say enough good things about them. Steven and DJ Adam were so fun to work with and very easy to communicate with. They responded to all questions very quickly and made us feel very comfortable throughout the process of planning. Regarding the day of, DJ Adam was amazing! He did our ceremony music, cocktail hour music, and emcee/reception music. We got compliments from so many of our guests about how well he did with keeping people on the dance floor. My husband and I were so impressed with how he flowed the music and kept it very fun. We would recommend Carter Events to anyone who looking to book a DJ for their wedding. They were great to work with and very reasonably priced.

    Would choose again in a hear beat

    Steven was nothing short of amazing. After seeing his work at a few of our friends weddings and hear great things from them we knew he’d be a great pick if available. Steven Kept the party going ALL NIGHT!! We got so many compliments from family and friends after. The dance floor was always so full. He was super accommodating to our taste in music and very easy to communicate with. 100/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a DJ for their wedding!

    Amazing Officiating and DJ Service

    We are so happy with the service we got for our wedding! We got DJ and officiant service, and got compliments from our guests on both the ceremony and the music. They were super friendly, flexible, and easy to work with, and built a great event for us even though we really didn't give much to work with. Very professional, while staying fun and open, and had questions prepared to help us build the event.

    Excellent company, amazing people

    I don't even really know what to say here. Our experience was INCREDIBLE. I'll break it down person by person
    Adam, our dj, was one of the kindest people we have met. He dealt with all of my crazy ideas and kept the energy going all night. He even called bingo for our cocktail hour!!
    Sam, our photobooth operator, kept the photobooth going all night with high energy. We love our photobooth photo album.
    Steven, company owner, was there for us through the whole process and really helped in the 45 days leading up to iron out details. Our zoom meetings were so helpful.
    However, no one compares to his wife, Angie. Angie served as our day of coordinator and my sanity. The detail, attention, and love we received from her was above and beyond.
    This company was truly a blessing to us and we will never forget your kindness

    Carter Events and Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this absolutely amazing review. It fills me with immense pride and joy to hear how much you enjoyed our services and the incredible people on my team. Your kind words mean the world to us.

    Adam, our DJ, is an exceptional individual, and I'm thrilled to hear that he went above and beyond to make your night unforgettable. It's wonderful that he embraced your ideas and kept the energy going throughout the entire event. And calling bingo for the cocktail hour? That's just the kind of personalized touch we love to bring to our clients' special days.

    Sam, our photobooth operator, is a true professional with a passion for creating memorable experiences. I'm delighted that he kept the energy high and that you love your photobooth photo album. Capturing those moments is so important, and I'm glad Sam was able to provide you with lasting memories.

    As for myself, I'm grateful that I had the opportunity to be there for you throughout the entire process. The 45-day period leading up to the event can be filled with details and decisions, and I'm glad our Zoom meetings were helpful. Your satisfaction and peace of mind are always my top priorities, and it's fulfilling to know that I played a role in making your experience smooth and enjoyable.

    But I must say, my wife Angie truly shines as our day-of coordinator. Her attention to detail, dedication, and love for what she does are unmatched. I'm delighted that she served as your sanity and provided you with the support you needed on such an important day. Angie and I are honored to have been a part of your journey, and we cherish the opportunity to bring joy and happiness to our clients' lives.

    Your kind words are a true blessing to us, and we are grateful for the opportunity to have made a positive impact on your wedding day. It was an absolute pleasure working with you, and we will forever cherish the memories we created together.

    Once again, thank you for your incredible support and for choosing our company. We wish you and your partner, Jessica and Ray, a lifetime filled with love, happiness, and beautiful moments.

    Knowledgeable and Friendly DJ!

    Steven was FANTASTIC! We are so thankful for all that he did to make our wedding day a success! His communication was so fast, I was never waiting or wondering if I would hear form him. He went above and beyond helping us pick out our music, and making sure that our timeline for the reception was exactly how we wanted it. His knowledge and flexibility shined through in all of our meetings before the big day. The day of, not only was he energetic and warm, but he truly helped out reception be a success and I received so many complements about what he did! Right away, Steven helped us get ready for our grand entrance, organized with the venue and photographers, and made our wedding party feel so comfortable! He was so helpful in making sure our speakers were ready at the right time, and he was not afraid to reach out to people at the venue to keep things moving along as needed. I had guests who complemented his song selections, his transitions between songs, and the level of sound. (Some guests could still have conversations in the space where the music was, without having to scream) My husband and I were so pleased with how the day went, and we would hire Steven again! If you are looking for a DJ who knows what he is doing, is willing to work with you to make your day your way, and someone who really cares about how your day goes, Carter Events and Entertainment is the way to go! We cannot thank Steven enough for all he did for us!

I absolutely enjoyed collaborating with you on the music choices and ensuring everything flowed smoothly according to your vision. Your satisfaction with the transitions between songs and the overall sound level is fantastic to hear.

    The Best DJ, Photobooth, and Officiant!

    My wedding was in June of 2023 and we hired Carter Events and Entertainment as our DJ, officiant, ceremony music and photobooth. Steve Naumann and Nikky helped us out and did an excellent job! Before the wedding, we had several phone calls and emails back and forth with Steve Naumann and Steve Carter. They helped us create a perfect script for the ceremony, selection of songs for the night, and even details about the photobooth. They also worked with us to bundle the services we wanted and offer discounts based on their service package options. On the day of the wedding, Steve played a big role in helping us move things along and try to stick to our schedule so we didn't miss out on anything! I would highly recommend Carter Events and Entertainment to anyone looking for great service for a great price!

    Just go with Carter Events! They rock

    Carter Events made our special day (mostly :P) stress free. Steven really helped to guide through the whole process. We also had Liz the day of coordinator. She allowed us just to enjoy the night while she took care of the clean up. Angela was fantastic and fun at the photo booth. Steven brings a lot of energy. If your lucky you might even catch him twerking on the dance floor. No promises though :)

    We are so happy we went with Carter Events!

    Carter Events and Entertainment's reply:

    Hi Libby, Thank you for your kind words about our services! It's always wonderful to hear that we were able to make your special day stress-free (mostly, lol) and that you found Angela to be fun at the photo booth. We worked hard to ensure that you could enjoy your night without worrying about the details. I am happy to hear that my energy added to the fun and festive atmosphere of your event. I am thrilled that you were happy with your decision to go with Carter Events and Entertainment! We wish you many more years of happiness together!

    Sincerely,
    Steven Carter

    Amazing company ran by Amazing people!

    Honestly these two men are amazing! Steve Carter likes to be in touch with all his customers! Steve Naumann was awesome the night of the wedding! His suit that I picked out for him really showed his personality and I chose for the DJ to be very interactive and he was! He knew all the moves to the group dances and did it so flawlessly. Steve Naumann and Ang Carter (she worked the photo booth) did amazing and made my night perfect! Honestly, the photo book they put together was so much better than my guest book because the photos help me remember the night 20 years from now! Amazing company! I'd use them again!

    Carter Events and Entertainment's reply:

    Miranda, your kind words have truly touched our hearts. We are incredibly grateful to have been a part of your special day, and we consider ourselves blessed to have crossed paths with you. Your appreciation means the world to us.

    It was an honor to contribute to your wedding and help create beautiful memories that will last a lifetime. Witnessing your love and happiness on that day was truly a privilege.

    As you embark on this new chapter of your life, we want to extend our warmest wishes for many years filled with love, joy, and cherished moments together. May your journey be filled with beautiful experiences and deep connections.

    Above and beyond, hands down the best!

    I had the pleasure of meeting Steven Carter at a wedding exbo in Madison. He was dressed in all orange and had a huge smile on his face! I knew I was in the moment I saw him! From then on, Steven had a few meetings with us to organize, plan, and to just listen to us vent. Steven became more than just a dj doing a job, he became a friend who cared. And this carried over to not just us but to all of our guests as well. Steven helped release tables during dinner, he kept conversation flowing with guests, and he wasn't caught without a smile on his face. He joined many dances and kept the night entertaining and purely enjoyable. He brought so much positive energy and fun to the evening! He also kept the bride and groom in his top priority. He was able to grab us both and pull us away from the hundreds of conversations so we could catch a moment together and get some beautiful sunset pictures! And during all of this, his wonderful wife kept the photo booth going and placed a copy of everything in a book for us to keep and take home. Carter Entertainment offers the full package and more! I am beyond lucky to have found this wonderful crew!

    Carter Events and Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words Miranda! We feel very blessed to have been part of your day and have equally found a friend in you. We wish you many years of love and happiness together.

    Carter Events & Entertainment, chanté, you stay

    In Summer ‘22 I stood in a wedding for which Steven was the DJ. My then fiance and I were so impressed with him that we took a business card and wanted to hire him for our wedding in Winter ‘23. He took considerable effort not only to understand how we imagined our wedding, but also sharing his expertise during our planning stages. He gave us insightful recommendations and one or two cautionary tales–never to scare us, rather to help educate us.
    When the day came, Steven made such a lasting impression on our friends and family. The dance floor was electric all night long! A year later people still tell my wife and I how much fun they had at our wedding reception, much of the credit owed to Steven. We recommend Carter Events & Entertainment to any of our friends who will listen!

    Carter Events and Entertainment's reply:

    BJ and Kenzie

    Firstly, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! I cannot believe it has been a year already.

    I can't thank you enough for sharing your incredible experience with Carter Events & Entertainment, particularly highlighting my role as the DJ. It warms my heart to know that your wedding was a joyous and memorable celebration.

    Starting from our first encounter at the Summer '22 wedding, it's been a pleasure connecting with you and your then-fiancé. Your appreciation for my efforts to understand your wedding vision and share insights during the planning stages means a lot. Collaboration and communication are key in creating a personalized event, and I'm glad to see it reflected in your feedback.

    Creating an unforgettable atmosphere is what I strive for, and I'm thrilled to have left such lasting memories for you, your wife, and your guests. I can still picture everyone participating in the time warp and soul train. Your kind words and recommendation are truly appreciated, and I'm grateful to have been a part of your special day.

    If there's anything more I can do for you or if you have future events in mind, please don't hesitate to reach out. Wishing you and your wife a lifetime of happiness and beautiful moments together.

    Warm regards,

    Steven

    This ain't Steven's first rodeo!

    We just had Carter Entertainment DJ our wedding reception and we could not have been more pleased with the experience! The price is reasonable, they're professional, organized, but most of all, FUN! There were little touches Steven added throughout the night that really stood out and helped our night run smoothly. Our guests and ourselves had such a memorable time on the dance floor with DJ Steven Carter! Thank you for giving us the best party ever!

    Carter Events and Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you so much for your kind words Katie! It was an absolute pleasure working with you and being part of your wedding story! I wish you and Adam many years of happiness together!

    The best DJ!

    When they say RUN DO NOT WALK!! We mean it, booking Steven as your DJ for your wedding or any event at all will make it a thousand times better than you would have expected. Steven goes above and beyond for his couples, he not only played the music we wanted BUT he danced with us, and even when no one else was dancing he kept it going and always brought us back to the dance floor.
    We are still getting compliments on him from our guests! Highly recommend Carter Events and Entertainment!!

    Carter Events and Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you Kailey for your very kind words! It was a pleasure to be part of you wedding story. I wish you and Jacob many years of happiness together. :)

    Worth Every Single Penny!

    Steve and Liz from Carter Events did an unbelievable job helping my husband and me get our wedding planned! They were able to get our venue decorated just as we'd hoped, helped us get about a million family group photos taken without a hitch, Steve did an amazing job MC-ing our bar trivia we did instead of a dance, and overall were a great part of our day! I'd recommend them to help plan absolutely any major life event!

    Carter Events and Entertainment's reply:

    Hi Emily,

    Thank you very much for your kind words! We had an amazing time with you and your guests and wish you many years of happiness together.
