We danced the WHOLE night and the “hora loca” blew everyone’s minds. Fernando also incorporated our song requests seamlessly, ensuring the vibe was right before playing anything. Given that it was a bilingual wedding, he also ensured that both languages were incorporated so everyone felt included and it wasn’t overwhelming on either side. I appreciated that a whole lot. He played a major role in making our wedding the most fun wedding, and was a pleasure to work with, and highly professional.

It is an understatement to say that one of the best decisions we made during the entire wedding planning process was choosing DJ Taso for our entertainment. Everything that Taso did was top notch from his attention to every detail (ie. pronunciations of every bridal party and family member’s name and timing of songs to the second) and set up (DJ booth, lighting, sparklers etc.) to his seamless transitions from Greek to American music and everything in between. The dance floor was packed the entire night and everyone raved about the experience… many of our guests have even booked Taso in the short time since our wedding!

Imagine your guests entering your reception to the sounds of violins as they arrive to your venue, then enter your ceremony or cocktail to the sounds of a string or classical ensemble. Let us show you how to start your party off right and give your guests a “sense of arrival".

We had the pleasure of having Phase One perform at our wedding for the ceremony, reception, and after-party, and they absolutely blew us away! From start to finish, they were engaged not only with us but with the entire crowd. Their energy was contagious, and they knew exactly how to read the room, keeping everyone on the dance floor the whole time. The transitions between songs were seamless, and the variety in their set list kept all of our guests—young and old—dancing nonstop. We couldn’t have asked for a better band to set the perfect tone for our big day. Highly recommend Phase One to anyone looking to elevate their event with incredible live music!

The best part was when the singers would walk out into the audience and include us in the performance. We were singing at the top of our lungs and just having the bet time. Great performers, and great customer service on the planning side. Liz came through for us at every turn and knew exactly what to do, we didn't stress at all (not about the music, at least!! haha) In the end, I wouldn't have changed one single moment about my wedding.
