We recently had our wedding on May 3, 2024, and Jeff from BTSound was our DJ. Jeff was absolutely awesome to work with and really listened to everything we had to say. We had an interview with him beforehand, and it made me instantly want to work with him. As an avid music fanatic and house head, we didn't want just a "wedding DJ"; We wanted a real DJ, and Jeff truly is one. He has the background to back it up. Jeff was very easy to work with, incredibly personable, and willing to play whatever we wanted to hear. We couldn’t have found a better DJ for our wedding. If you’re looking for a DJ who understands music and will make your event unforgettable, Jeff from BTSound is the one to go with.

Nick and his team were the first vendors we booked once we set our wedding date! We knew we loved his style from my sisters wedding and we HAD to have them apart of our wedding day. He’s professional, so energetic, and goes above and beyond in every aspect! Nick and his team brought us our first drinks of the night, we’re so attentive to where my husband and I were during the reception - If we left the room for a moment, he didn’t play any of our requested songs he knew we’d want to be present for! The biggest compliment we receive from our wedding guests is still about Nick and the music - songs were played for just the right amount of time and he does an amazing job of keeping the energy up ALL NIGHT. One of my main goals for our reception was keeping the dance floor packed the whole time and Nick did just that. I honestly can’t say enough amazing things about Nick and his team at Impulse Entertainment. Impulse Entertainment is the vendor I recommend first to any of my friends once they get engaged. Thank you for giving us an amazing experience, Nick and team!

If music is a top priority for your event or you’re concerned you won’t find the right dj to fulfill all of your requests, worry no more. From start to finish Ken made the entire process a total breeze and we had fun while doing so! My husband and I were very specific on what we wanted for our wedding music production and Ken did not disappoint. Not only did we have full control of what would be played (& not played) throughout the evening but he made our night completely unforgettable. From his entire sound system which included a video screen that incorporated pictures and videos, to [up]lighting that went with our music, along with unique touches during first dances and our last dance, we were floored with how perfectly he executed our special day. It’s been over a year since our wedding and our guests are still talking about how we had the best dj and music. The only complaint we had was that our guests couldn’t leave the dance floor to grab a drink or take a break because the songs and energy kept getting better and better! I’d get married again in a heartbeat just to rebook Ken and dance the night away!

Our experience with Nicky Avalo has exceeded all our expectations. We had heard about Nicky’s services from friends who have attended previous weddings where Nicky’s presence played a large part in creating such fun and special memories. So my fiance and I were excited to get the chance to work with him. We have to say he lives up to his wonderful reputation. He has always been so accessible, responsive, and patient-making him such a joy to work with in the wedding planning process. Nicky has so effortlessly managed a huge deal of wedding logistics, from DJ services, photography, Photo Booth, working with other vendors, and helping us to think of timeline logistics from the very beginning to the very end of our wedding day. He is incredibly thoughtful and detail oriented and most of all considerate. We cared most about music and pictures and he matched us with a wonderful photographer, Jacquelyn Grace who was so kind, patient, and worked hard to capture the photo shot list we had and took amazing pictures of us on the skyline. So happy she was able to capture so many beautiful memories that we will cherish forever! Our photo booth was also a hit with the guests and the template he made matched our theme so nicely! He matched us with DJ Mike (Versatic) and MC Daniel who truly embraced our culture and made our Mexican American vision of a wedding come true. A true bilingual reception with music that weaved in and out our culture of Latin/Tejano music, to rock music like Bon Jovi, early 2000s hits, etc. Our guests had a blast! Nicky also went the extra mile when life made things a little overwhelming to plan our wedding on our own and we decided we needed a wedding planner. We felt comfortable enough to ask Nicky for help with our search and without hesitation Nicky helped us find a wedding planner within our budget. There is so much more we can say about Nicky and we cannot express enough how grateful we have been very his attention to detail that makes us feel assured that every moment of our special day will be nothing short of magical. Throughout our time together he always reminded us that our wedding was about us, and what we want, and was so thoughtful to make sure our wedding represented us as a Mexican American couple. He creates a lot of ease in wedding planning that provided so much comfort to us when wedding planning became inevitable stressful because we knew he was always a solid presence we could rely on. He even showed up to our wedding day just to check in that everything was going as we wished. Nicky's expertise, dedication, and knowledge about the wedding industry has transformed and transcended our wedding vision into reality. We are immensely grateful for his exceptional service and wholeheartedly recommend Nicky Avalo Studios to anyone seeking an stress-free and unforgettable wedding experience.

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.

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.

Whether it’s pumping up the energy during a wedding reception or creating the perfect vibe for a corporate event, he knows how to read the crowd and keep everyone engaged. Cheryl complements Darrin perfectly by ensuring that everything runs smoothly behind the scenes. She’s like the conductor of a finely tuned orchestra, managing the event with precision while also interacting with guests to keep the fun going. One standout feature of Premier Entertainment is their innovative photobooth options. They add a fun, interactive element that guests absolutely love, capturing memories in a unique way. What truly sets them apart, though, is their exceptional pre-event timeline creation. It’s far superior to anything I’ve seen, providing a clear roadmap for the event and ensuring that everything unfolds seamlessly.

Funk Almighty was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!!! From the beginning, Daryl, the band's manager, was a dream to communicate with – always quick to respond and incredibly accommodating to our needs. On the big day, they exceeded our expectations with one heck of a performance. Their setlist was a hit, blending different genres to cater to our very diverse group of guests. We gave them a heads up and they brought hits from the 70's all the way through the 2000's. What really set them apart was the band's chemistry and enthusiasm were infectious! They were having just as good a time we were and that made the dance floor the place to be all night! Despite a minor sound glitch at the start, they handled it with utmost professionalism. Their performance was a major highlight of our celebration that left us and our guests thoroughly impressed. We would wholeheartedly recommend Funk Almighty for their talent, but even more so the joy they'll bring to your wedding!!!! *Original review posted on theknot.com https://www.theknot.com/marketplace/funk-almighty-chicago-il-2062080

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.

Music Creations has been one of Chicagoland’s top D.J. services since 1977. Started by Charlie DiGiovanni in 1977 and now owned and operated by Tommy DiGiovanni who has been a professional D.J. for over 3 decades. We remain successful by using top quality sound and lighting equipment and always playing to the audience.

Music Creations was the best DJ service we could have asked for on our wedding day. From the start, their communication was quick, helpful, and responsive as we planned the music for our big day. When we were unsure where to start, they provided great recommendations that got everyone out on the dance floor all night long. The DJ kept the energy high with updated and fun music selections that had all of our guests dancing the entire time. Honestly, they were the best DJ we've ever experienced at a wedding - we couldn't have asked for more! We highly recommend Music Creations to any couple looking for an amazing musical experience on their wedding day.
