Elite Pro DJ 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $995
  • Serves Nilwood, IL

Our highly experienced St. Louis DJ's pay attention to every detail of your wedding and prioritize the most important things to you. We are there to ensure an evening you can enjoy with your guests, have fun and dance the night away "Stress Free". Though we are a new advertiser on Zola as of November 2024, Elite Pro DJ has hundreds of 5-star reviews on other various wedding websites and Google. Reliable, premium quality and fully accredited by the BBB with a long standing A+ rating. We are not a franchise or nationwide company. We are a smaller St. Louis DJ company with a very select group of highly qualified wedding DJs.

I cannot say enough good things about our DJ (Jon)! My now husband and I had some concerns regarding some of our family members and we discussed them with Jon prior to the event. Jon respected our wishes and was so professional about everything. He handled things extremely well. We had an issue with the pastor who married us. We had asked the pastor a week or two prior to the wedding if he would at least come by the reception hall to say the blessing at the wedding (He said yes at the time.), and he no-showed. Jon had announced that the pastor would come up and say the blessing, and of course there was radio silence because we quickly realized the pastor wasn’t there. Once we told Jon that he didn’t show up, Jon said a quick blessing and our meal began. We started the dances, and we could not keep people off of the dance floor. Jon kept pace with the crowd so well and everyone had such a blast! What my husband and I didn’t realize at the time was that my husband’s Uncle Joe had a surprise song picked out for us as well as green Irish polo shirts made for all of us (inside joke) and we essentially had a bit of a flash mob at our wedding. Kudos to Jon for going along with his idea! That was so funny and it made our wedding so special. Overall, it was a wonderful evening and I truly hope every couple is blessed with a DJ like Jon. I don’t think he could have done anything better honestly. You will not find a better DJ in the St. Louis / Metro East area! Thanks Jon!

I am a professional DJ from Festus, Missouri. I am also blessed to be a husband and a father to two amazing kids!​ At the beginning of my career, I worked full-time in radio as an on-air talent. After a few years in the radio industry, I was given the opportunity to expand my abilities with companies such as ESPN, Fox Sports Midwest, & one of the top DJ Companies in the STL area! Eventually, after years of hard work, I decided to offer STL couples everything they had been dreaming of for their big day! So, in 2021 I launched my own DJ business... Matt Baer Media!

Awarded Best of Zola
Matt provided his services for my husband and I this past weekend for our wedding, and we have nothing but good things to say! When I started wedding planning, the two most important vendors to me was our DJ and photographer. After lots of research and talks with other DJs, I found Matt and I’m so glad I did. He listened to what we wanted and was super professional during the whole process. During our reception, I told him multiple times that I needed him to play something I didn’t know so I could get a break. We highly recommend Matt Baer Media for DJ services and even the Photo Booth. It was a huge hit at our wedding.

We customize a plan for your wedding, party, or event that incorporates both dance floor-filling DJ sets and live performances.

Awarded Best of Zola
There is no better DJ than DJ Martin. He had us fill out a questionnaire that helped guide us through planning our entire wedding day and ultimately the absolute BEST PARTY ever! I have never seen so many people on a dance floor as I did at our wedding reception. Instead of a head table, we put the DJ façade on the stage where the head tables would have been so that he was the center of attention. Ultimately, it was the best decision. He was able to be close to the dance floor, feel the crowd, and have a good time. He also listened to us on our music choices and guided us on things we were unsure of. We highly recommend Ultimate Beats Entertainment.

We stumbled upon these lovely ladies during a random bridal expo and they were nice enough to play us a quick little demo. We fell in love with them instantly and the thought of having them perform for our church ceremony. No shade on any organists out there, but this is the way to go if you want to stand out, have a unique ceremony, and be straight up classy. We got tons of compliments for choosing Beau Son Strings. The variety of songs they know how to play is astonishing. Not a dry eye in the church that day. We want to thank Emily and Sonja personally.

Rachel played PERFECT music despite our lack of clear directions. We hired her as both DJ and day of coordinator and she knocked it out of the park on both fronts, making our tables and room beautiful, coordinating with all of our vendors, helping us to figure out logistics we hadn't even considered, and figuring out a last-minute makeup artist when ours fell through. The music was great and she hosted a fantastic party. We were actually able to enjoy our own wedding, thanks to Rachel! Hire her, you won't regret it.

From the moment we met with Franco, we knew we were in good hands for our wedding. We quickly vibed with him and had similar music tastes. From start to finish, Franco kept the energy high!

Awarded Best of Zola
Jenna the dj kept the party hopping all night! She literally was so great in ensuring the guests were kept in the loop the entire night. The couple loved x files and she was made aware and went out of her way to play the x files theme song as a surprise for them. Also, there was an inside joke with a cardboard cutout of Danny Devito. When they did a couples dance she even joked about how if someone didn’t have a partner they could dance with Danny. She was very personable and even helped clear plates in her free time. In addition, there was an issue where the hired officiant didn’t show up on time. I called Live Events as a back up and the owner Dennis told me he was an hour and a half away at another wedding but would come immediately. He rushed to our aid even when I told him the other officiant finally showed up. He showed up ready to help in any way he could. This company is top notch in all they do. Professional, polite, friendly, fun and ready to exceed your expectations. The only mistake you could make on your wedding day would be not hiring them.

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.

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.

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!!

As a wedding vendor, you get a peek behind the curtain and see the best and worst of other vendors. Oftentimes, I see a side of DJ’s that isn’t pretty… uncooperative, unprofessional, unprepared.

Their talent and professionalism really made our reception a blast that people will remember for a long time. The music was pumping all night long thanks to the Wedding Crash Kings! For their level of communication, flexibility and incredible performance, I would give them my highest recommendation to any engaged couple looking for musicians that know how to throw an awesome party!

Absolutely amazing!!! People at our wedding still talk about them a month later! They not only brought great positive energy but were so sweet and kind to work with. They heard all of our requests and took them all into account. They were not only amazing to us but all of our family and friends. Would HIGHLY recommend. Also working with Utah Live Bands was one of our easiest vendors to work with - Stephen Tobian was always so responsive it was great for planning from afar! Book these guys early though they fill up fast!

Adam Clark & Derek Hughes created ‘The Nashville Wedding Band’ in Nashville TN to give their clients an experience of a lifetime. After 25 years of music city experience, performing and working together with some of the biggest names* in Country & Rock, this duo decided to take on a new and exciting journey of establishing a Nashville-based wedding band. With access to some of the best touring musicians and singers in the nation, they were able to compile a band unlike any other to take the wedding experience to the next level.

The Nashville Wedding Band was an absolute hit at our wedding! They had great communication leading up to the big day and were so easy to talk to, which put us at ease. This band is filled with professional musicians who have performed with top artists, and it really showed in their incredible performance. I've been to a lot of weddings, and the Nashville Wedding Band is hands down the best live music I've ever heard at a wedding or anywhere else. They were even kind enough to let my niece join them for a special song, which was a highlight of the night. With their amazing vocals, ability to play any song, and pure talent, the Nashville Wedding Band made our wedding reception an absolute blast from start to finish. I couldn't recommend them more highly!
