As one of the most important parts of a wedding, I cannot recommend trusting your entertainment with DJ Ken enough. From the moment we began working with DJ Ken, he made our wedding feel like his biggest priority and that he was there to make our vision come to life.

DJ Obie

  • DJ
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Highland Park, IL

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
I booked Obie for my wedding on April 7. I knew there were multiple moving parts to making a wedding successful. However, I did not realize the magnitude of having a great DJ and MC until I had DJ Obie for both. I was incredibly impressed on how professional he was from the very beginning. From my past experience, many DJs were happy to be picked and paid for a job. DJ Obie was different. He not only appreciated taking on the job, but he strived to ensure that the wedding would be a moment to remember, and without a doubt, he accomplished that. During the wedding and days after, I continually heard my (and my wife’s friends) say that DJ Obie did an incredible job. Without a doubt, it’s the best job that I experienced and I look forward to working with you again. Thank you so much for making this a moment to remember.

It’s far superior to anything I’ve seen, providing a clear roadmap for the event and ensuring that everything unfolds seamlessly.

Drew from Crimson Events was our DJ for our wedding ceremony and reception. He did an absolutely phenomenal job! He worked with us beforehand to get a feel for us as a couple and what we wanted for our big day. He was very easy to work with both before and during the wedding. He kept our guests engaged and entertained. He was able to accurately read the room and tailor the music to keep everyone happy. When several guests requested karaoke (which was not discussed beforehand) he doublechecked that it was okay with us before moving forward. DJ’s at an event can definitely make or break an occasion. Drew definitely enhanced our wedding experience. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fun DJ.

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.

We worked with Biossat Custom Productions to contract a harpist (for the ceremony) and a live band (Rythmique, for the reception) to play at our fall wedding with 120 guests, and we cannot highly recommend them enough. From start to finish, the Biossat team worked closely with us to understand and execute what music we envisioned for our wedding day, even helping to coordinate us doing a special performance with the band, which was such a special treat. We felt heard and respected throughout the entire process. We adored our harpist, and the live band Rythmique was PHENOMENAL!!!!!!!!!!! We had high expectations, but the instrumentalists and vocalists truly blew us away. My jaw was on the floor the entire evening. Their rendition of Superstition was *truly* life-changing. They kept the energy up and the dance floor rockin'. We received SO MANY compliments from guests about Rythmique and so many questions about where we found them. If you're looking to add a special touch to your wedding day that will keep the party going, look no further!
