Music Mania, Inc. 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,400
  • Serves Fox Valley, IL

My career started in 1985 as a single-operating DJ company and I’ve performed at thousands of events in and around Chicago over the past 30+ years. In 2016, I started Photo Mania to accommodate the popularity of photo booths at weddings, corporate events, and social parties. And we’re still evolving to find better and faster photo booth technologies to create that buzz at your event. In my personal life, I was a volunteer firefighter for ten years and just retired from the fire service after a thirty-year career. Through my companies, we donate to various charities and events in and around Chicago to benefit the community.

Our first experience with Music Mania was 6 years ago at my sister's wedding. They did such an amazing job at her wedding that we knew we wanted to work with them for our wedding! Dwayne and the whole team was so fantastic to work with. We were supposed to get married last summer, however due to COVID, we had to reschedule. The Music Mania team was so flexible in changing our date and made it so easy for us in a time that truly wasn't easy. They were always so fast with responses to questions and so helpful throughout the planning process. We met with them about a week before the wedding to finalize things. The day of the wedding, they were amazing. We booked the DJ as well as the photobooth and everyone from the Music Mania team was great. They would check in on us to see if we needed anything (food, drink, etc.) and were in constant communication with our venue room captain. Our DJ was great about playing the songs on our "must play" list but also reading the room to keep our guests dancing the night away. Our guests had SO much fun going to the photobooth as well. There were so many props to pick from, we had guests going back multiple times. We had so many guests tell us it was such a great wedding, and I know Music Mania had a lot do to with it. I would recommend Music Mania to anyone looking for an amazing DJ & photobooth service!

Dancefloor Delight 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Fox Valley, IL

Welcome to Dancefloor Delight, the premier wedding DJ company dedicated to making your big day an unforgettable experience! Our team of experienced and professional DJs is committed to providing top-quality entertainment that will have you and your guests dancing all night long.

On the day of the wedding, Dancefloor Delight truly exceeded our expectations. They arrived early to set up their equipment and made sure everything was in place before the reception began. Once the party started, the DJ kept the energy high and the dance floor packed. They played a great mix of music that appealed to guests of all ages, and seamlessly transitioned between songs to keep the party going. One of the things that really stood out to us was how the DJ took the time to get to know our preferences and incorporate them into the playlist. They also did a great job of reading the crowd and adjusting the music as needed to keep everyone engaged. I would definably recommend!

Cuarteto Guataca 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Fox Valley, IL for additional fees

Bassist and bandleader Josh Levine got his start in the professional music business busking in SoHo with The Flying Neutrinos in ’93, so when NYC shut down in Spring of 2020, he capitalized on his experience as a street performer and began to play regularly in the parks of NYC with percussionist and sonero, Jainardo Batista, renowned flutist Itai Kriss making his debut on Cuban trés guitar, and María Raquel on vocals and minor percussion. Before long, the quartet had generated some buzz, several venues hired them to play outdoors and pianist Gabriel Chakarji and Grammy winning flutist and vocalist Jeremy Bosch became staples of the group.

Cuarteto Guataca is AMAZING. Every single member of this group is an absolute joy to work with, and their talent is beyond words! Cuarteto was our wedding band, and I don’t think anyone sat down the entire reception! Hire them now!!
