We recently had the absolute pleasure of working with John at Chicago Top DJ for our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the beginning, John was professional, personable, and really took into account our vision for the day. He was so easy to work with and made our reception unforgettable. The planning process was seamless. John took the time to meet with us beforehand to understand our preferences and what vibe we were going for. He helped us curate the perfect playlist, blending our favorite songs with crowd-pleasers that got everyone on the dance floor. He even took note what songs we wanted to avoid and he made sure not to play them. On the big day, John was amazing. His charisma and energy were infectious. He read the room and played exactly what the crowd needed over the course of the night. From the cocktail hour to the last song, the music was spot-on. He perfectly balanced the mood, starting with more relaxed tunes and gradually building to a high-energy party that had everyone dancing until the very end. John interacted with the crowd, hyped people up, and created an amazing atmosphere. He had great transitions and timing for announcements. We didn’t worry about a thing during the reception, he took care of keeping track of the timeline of events and made everything stress-free so we really could just enjoy. We and our guests had an incredible time dancing the night away. It was exactly what we wanted. John went above and beyond to make our wedding day special, and we’ll be forever grateful for the memories he helped us create. We could not recommend him enough, he knows how to throw an unforgettable party.

Nicky Avalo Studios is AMAZING. DJ Redd kept the dance floor filled all night long. I was one of the crazy brides who had a veryyyyy long must play list and he did a great job at playing the songs that kept people singing & dancing. From the very start, it was such an easy process!! Nicky was so so helpful. I filled out the document and everything I asked for was done. Before the wedding, I had actual nightmares about who would DJ my wedding (no idea why… just mustve been what I was most nervous for?! LOL) and WOW those nightmares were all wrong. DJ Redd is the best & even joined us on the dance floor! Seriously I cant say enough good things. I told Nicky about the nightmares I had & he went above & beyond & showed up to our wedding to say hey which just made it even more special. THANK YOU Nicky Avalo Studios for being everything we asked for & more. Attached pics of me & then DJ Redd doing the splits LOL

I found Mike via thumbtack & although on there it stated he was booked on my wedding date I thought I’d still reach out to him. I’m so happy I did because he put me in touch with our dj, thankyouteddy and he did an awesome job djing for our wedding! Mike was very informative and gave me plenty of information. He also has you do a questionnaire to help narrow down the right dj for you based off your music preferences. Mike will reached out periodically to follow up & also puts you in touch with the dj the week of the wedding to go over details. Teddy arrived on time and kept everyone on our toes throughout the night. The only thing I will say, is if you’re doing bridal party introductions it’s best to rehearse it if possible. Or give an exact time of the song for your dj to play when each couple comes out.

We chose Crimson Events for our wedding DJ and wow, what an excellent choice that was! Cannot speak highly enough of Drew; from the planning all the way through the actual event, he was on top of every detail. It is pretty rare to find someone who is both extremely professional/organized AND has the creative skillset that Drew has. He was really able to feel the pulse of the event & keep the party going, the dance floor was packed the whole night. Excellent emcee work as well throughout the day and into the evening, even with some unexpected last-minute changes. We have been getting compliments left and right from our guests about how fantastic our DJ was... and we agree! While we were really happy with all of our vendors, Crimson Events was hands down the best-spent money of the entire wedding experience. 5 stars!!

She was extremely responsive.Her way of putting together the music list both made sure we had a ton of songs that we wanted to hear and also a healthy mix of crowd pleasers and good vibes that we didn’t have to think about. She got the vibe we were going for perfectly at dinner and on the dance floor. She was also very helpful in getting us to think through what kind of music we would want for the ceremony. Also, as someone very familiar with the industry, she had good advice for helping us navigate things with other vendors we were looking at and we appreciated her experience. The best part was we ended up with a dance floor that stayed full and happy until the last song played.

Funktastic Productions Llc. was an absolute hit at our wedding! From the very first interaction, their communication was quick, friendly, and super detailed - they clearly cared about making our day perfect. And that's exactly what they delivered. I chose to have live piano and violin at my ceremony and they sounded beautiful together. They played every song I requested with depth and precision- even the fairly new music (I requested Birds of a Feather for the recessional, and they NAILED it!) They provided mics to the musicians and the officiant stand, which ended up being a lifesaver for us. The DJ and violinist were both fun and talented, keeping the dance floor packed all night long. DJ Servaun in particular did an amazing job matching the vibes, emceeing, and balancing in the moment song requests with a killer playlist. Get the DJ with Musician accompaniment package!! The electric violin player lit up the dance floor & guests LOVED it! Quote: “Best wedding I’ve ever been to! I’ve never been to a wedding where ‘Not Like Us’ got a violin accompaniment”. I also used Funktastic for our photobooth service and it was one of the most popular parts of the wedding. People lined up at one point to take pics- and I was thrilled with the quality of the designs and service. Funktastic Productions provided incredible value and high quality entertainment that made our wedding celebration truly unforgettable. We can't recommend them enough!

Our wedding guests are STILL talking about Todd and what an amazing job he did for us and our wedding a whole month later. My husband and I knew next to nothing about wedding music or what a DJ even does. We had no idea how much work a DJ actually does to ensure the whole day runs smoothly and all the announcements are made and all that stuff that people sometimes forget about. We picked only a handful of songs for the ceremony and reception and he did all the rest which made it really easy for us. Todd is not just a fantastic DJ, he is the nicest person. He ended up staying a whole hour later than what we booked him for because our catering service was late and it pushed everything back. He not only calmed the chaos of these unfortunate circumstances but he ensured everyone was still having a good time and (this needs to be repeated) HE STAYED LATE! Besides getting married, hiring Todd was the best decision my husband and I have ever made!

We had the pleasure of having Dj Azul at our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the very beginning, Dj Azul was incredibly professional and attentive to our music preferences. He took the time to understand our tastes and crafted a playlist that kept the dance floor packed all night long. The transitions between songs were seamless, and DJ Azul knew exactly how to read the crowd and keep the energy high. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the music, and many of them mentioned that it was one of the best wedding receptions they had ever attended. Thank you, Dj Azul, for making our special day even more memorable with your fantastic music and great vibes.

Like my title says, lifesavers! I had a really bad experience with my prior DJ that we had booked, and we had to terminate that contract 10 days before the wedding. That also meant we only had 10 days to find a new DJ! This company was the best, and we had an in-person consultation in Mike who helped match us with a great DJ. Calvin reached out to us, and we met in person to go over every little detail for the wedding day. It was a lengthy meeting, which was awesome, because he was asking us great questions and made sure we all had all of our ducks in a row. He kept in constant communication with us and our other vendors, and he made sure to check in with us throughout our wedding day. Calvin followed every little note we gave him prior to the day to a T. The dance floor was full all night long, and we received many compliments! We're so happy we found An Enchanted Evening, and Calvin truly helped us have the most magical wedding!

DJ Vestus (Erick) was absolutely amazing! From the start, he made sure to understand the exact vibe we wanted for each part of our wedding—ceremony, cocktail hour, and especially the reception—and he delivered perfectly. The music truly set the tone for the entire day, and Erick went above and beyond to make sure we felt like the #1 priority at our own wedding. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how great the music was, and we couldn’t agree more. Erick seamlessly read the room, kept the energy high, and made the dance floor unforgettable. At the very end of the night, I threw him a complete curveball request off-script, and he handled it instantly and flawlessly. Nothing ever felt like a big ask—he made the whole night flow effortlessly. We also added the photo booth and cold sparks through him, which made the evening even more magical. I am so, so happy we went with DJ Vestus. If you’re looking for someone who will truly listen, bring your vision to life, and keep the party going all night, Erick is the one. Highly recommend him to every future couple!
