DJ Milk was the best to work with for our wedding. He was easy going and fun to work with and listened to all of our requests for music and what we did not want played at our wedding. He was flexible and accommodating throughout the entire process as well. My now husband and I cannot be more happy with our decision to have him as the DJ at our wedding. He played all the music and songs we wanted and had our guests out on the dance floor the entire night. He also made sure that every single person's name in the bridal party was pronounced correctly when doing their entrance and was flexible and willing to work with my bridesmaid for a special song surprise they had planned for us. Several of our guests also told us how fantastic he was and that he was the best DJ they have ever encountered at a wedding. He also did a fantastic job at following our wedding day schedule and making sure people were giving speeches, doing dances, etc. when they were supposed to, which was so helpful and important to me because I did not have to worry about a thing!

I got into DJing by accident. After learning that working as an Industrial Engineer in a fortune 500 company didn't bring me much fulfillment, a friend suggested I join his DJ company. His company supplied DJ services for over 200 weddings a year! After my first wedding gig I was hooked. It gave me purpose, and an outlet I never knew was possible. I quickly became the most requested DJ in the company and within my market. Now I DJ on my own, and I'm so blessed to be able to curate an atmosphere of joy where families can connect.

When it came to planning my wedding, there were a million things on my mind, but finding the right entertainment turned out to be a breeze, all thanks to DJ Obie Entertainment. From the moment we connected, it was clear that we were in good hands, but little did I know just how exceptional our experience would be. DJ Obie was more than just a DJ; he was a true professional who approached our special day with unmatched dedication and expertise. His level of organization and communication was unparalleled, easing my worries and allowing me to fully enjoy the lead-up to our wedding. From the get-go, he embraced our event as if it were his own, and that level of commitment was evident in every aspect of his service. One thing that truly stood out was DJ Obie's meticulous preparation. He had a comprehensive spreadsheet with all the necessary information, including details I hadn't even thought of. This level of attention to detail not only impressed me but also made the entire process smoother and more enjoyable. On the big day, DJ Obie proved himself to be the life of the party. He seamlessly coordinated with our wedding coordinator, ensuring that every moment flowed effortlessly. From the ceremony to the reception, his music selection was spot-on, keeping the energy high and the dance floor packed. Speaking of the dance floor, DJ Obie had an uncanny ability to hype up our guests like no other. People who I never expected to see dancing were out there, having the time of their lives. The atmosphere was electric, and the compliments about the party's liveliness are still pouring in. In short, our wedding wouldn't have been the same without DJ Obie Entertainment. His professionalism, talent, and passion for what he does shone through every step of the way, resulting in an unforgettable experience for us and our guests. If you want your event to be nothing short of amazing, I wholeheartedly recommend DJ Obie. You won't regret it.

Funk Almighty was no doubt the best booking we made for our wedding. The band was electric and had a sound that can only be made from a group that plays together consistently. Their old funky classics and new hits were excellently played and made the dance floor the place to be! Some of our guests said their favorite part of the reception was the band, just watching them play and entertain was a great show. From initial inquiry, to final performance, they were responsive and professional. They performed live the songs for our first dance along with the father/bride and mother/groom dances as well. Overall they are a major talent and perform a terrific set, all while remaining in budget. Let this review be the one to get you to book this band, you will not be disappointed!

The name Funktastic is more than a genre of music - it’s a tight-knit family of stellar talent with a finely and meticulously curated repertoire spanning every style of music. 6-15 Piece Bands, Live DJ Hybrids, Photo Booths, and more, Funktastic is reserved for those who have a refined musical taste and need for having the best night of their lives. A collection of Chicago's finest black voices, musical authenticity comes from within the music. Musical authenticity comes from what's within the music. By tributing legendary artists with inclusion and diversity, we help preserve the African-American art form of Motown, Hiphop, Pop, and more!

It’s been 2 months since my wedding and I still have no words… Funktastic is by far the best wedding band I’ve ever heard (and yes, I’m biased so take it from the nearly 30 guests that told us the same)! Mike was so fantastic to work with, answering all of my many questions and putting me at ease. Amber was so incredibly organized and beyond helpful in working with us to create the perfect setlist. And now the band… while I was referred to Funktastic by some friends and coworkers, the thing that really sold me was the energy that the band brings, the band members’ MANY masters degrees in jazz (like what, music theory is so hard!!), and their insane ability to captivate an audience with their talent. Our singers were some of the best that I’ve ever seen, putting in these incredible riffs and belts that is practically unfathomable. Our band members were so in sync, vibing off of each other and putting a unique spin on every song. Needless to say, if I have any excuse to book a band for an event, I will 100% come back to Funktastic. Mike, Amber, and the entire band - thank you so much for making our music vision come to life! (Here’s to hoping all of our friends book you guys so we can keep seeing you perform)

Okyne Medialab is a contemporary wedding DJ business based in Austin, Texas and Chicago, Illinois. This entertainment company strives to bring a fresh perspective to the DJ industry. While still taking the lead on the night, these DJs will remain true to your vision and expectations.

A few days before our wedding, I got a message from Al saying our DJ had COVID and that they were going to send someone else. I was super bummed because I had loved our original pick (DJ Marcus) who did a fantastic job DJing our friends wedding in 2021. The replacement DJ (DJ Jose) called us right away to review all the details of the night with us. I was still hesitant, but was beginning to feel more comfortable during the conversation. On wedding day, DJ Jose was kind, professional, punctual, and ABSOLUTELY KILLED IT on the dance floor!! No one sat down for the entire night and guests are STILL raving about DJ Jose! Many guests have even requested Jose's song selections for the entire day (ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception) because they loved it so much! Props to Okyne for having such talented DJs that can pick up events for each other and still do a fantastic job. Al was very responsive and easy to work with, as well! Smart choice for any couple that is looking for a party on the dance floor

The DJ effortlessly mixed genres, catering to all ages, while the band brought that lively energy that really got everyone involved. Our LED dance floor was a showstopper, literally sparkling under the lights as our friends danced the night away. The various photo booths offered by Highland Preferred were an absolute hit! Each booth had its own unique props and backgrounds, allowing our guests to capture fun memories throughout the evening. And I can’t say enough about the photography and videography services—the team was unobtrusive while perfectly capturing every moment. Just a few days after the event, we were delighted to receive a sneak peek at some of the photos—they were simply stunning! Moreover, their up lighting and decor services added an elegant touch to our venue. They truly transformed the space into a fairy tale setting that we had only dreamed about. Everything was reasonably priced, especially given the level of service provided. I genuinely felt like we got so much value for our investment.

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

EST 2015 Owner Brad has aspired to build this business on the love and knowledge of his Uncle’s 30 year wedding business, and add the modern mixing & lighting today’s couples deserve. We don’t view other companies as competition, but rather collaborators to grow with. Every client deserves the right fit for their DJ.

If you are looking for a DJ that is easy to work with, super friendly, and listens to exactly what you want then you need to use Brad! We gave him a list of songs we 100% wanted played (they were all over the place in genre, beat and tempo) and he made them all fit in perfectly! We also gave him songs that we did not want played which were not! Almost everyone at my wedding was on the dance floor because of the fun exciting atmosphere he made! He has multiple different packages you can choose from and you can also add things to your package if you don’t see it on the one you like! The lighting he also has to offer was amazing and made for some cool pictures as well. You can get ahold of him easy whenever you have questions or concerns as well.

David Rothstein Music was started in 1999. David believes each couple/client deserves to get exactly what they need for their specific event. DRM has a wide variety of ensembles and song choices to make every event meet and exceed your expectations!

We always ranked the music as the number one priority for our wedding, and we’re so glad we entrusted David Rothstein Band to bring our party to life. Planning a wedding during Covid had many challenges, including not being able to see the band live, but thankfully, David has so many live videos available where we can see the entertainment his band delivers day in and day out. Those videos, along with David’s passion for his work, made us confident to chose his team to make our day special. For our wedding, we had a classical duo during the ceremony, a pianist during cocktail hour, a jazz trio during dinner, and an incomparable 10 piece orchestra to dance the night away. From the first note to the final encore, we were BLOWN AWAY with the talent and energy that the band brought. We had a few special requests for the night - from a unique arrangement for our ceremony processional to a mashup of New York songs during the reception - and David’s team was beyond accommodating. We had dancing for 3 hours straight and not once did anyone leave the floor - the band was able to feel the energy in the room and chose the right song for the moment. I stumbled across the ingoing setlist after the party and was actually surprised to see that the band didn’t even stick to the songs they had picked - a sign that they adjusted based on what the crowd was loving. It’s been nearly a month since the big day and people keep telling us how amazing the music was, and we can’t stop watching the many videos David took from the night, reliving the magic that his band created. If you’re thinking about which band to have for your wedding, look no further than the David Rothstein Band - you won’t be disappointed!!
