Best DJ Ever!

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our wedding! The music was great, the energy was amazing, and the dance floor stayed packed all night. Everything ran smoothly, and James did an incredible job keeping the party going. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a DJ who will make their wedding unforgettable!

10/10 would recommend!!

James was absolutely AMAZING!! We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our wedding! He was so intuitive and knew exactly how to read the room and keep the energy going all night. The transitions were seamless and the music was great! He knew when to switch things up and kept the party flowing without us ever having to worry about a thing. He helped make our wedding so much fun, and we’re so glad we chose him to be part of our special day. He even did a freeze dance for the kids at the wedding while we were getting the night started. The online portal was so easy to use and was very helpful with planning. We had numerous people tell us throughout the night how much they loved our choice of DJ! We would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ who knows how to keep a party going!

Hire him!!

The best, affordable DJ! I don’t even know where to begin. James was fantastic from the start! Even with my first inquiry, he responded so quick and was so helpful. He answered all of my questions and was truthful about everything. The day of the wedding went so smooth with him. He has an online planning site which allows you to add music and a timeline which was beyond helpful. He was so nice, funny and upbeat. Our dance floor was never empty!! I seriously cannot recommend names more!

Best Wedding DJ EVER!!!!

We just had our wedding two days ago, and we feel so lucky beyond words to have had DJUJ (aka James!) as our wedding DJ!!!! We cannot say enough amazing things about him- he had such a major part in helping our day run so smoothly and all of the music was simply incredible!!!! He played music for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception- and everything was timed absolutely perfectly, it was beyond our wildest dreams!!! Not to mention, he helped facilitate some of our most favorite moments of the night, including a conga line with all of our guests and a group dance floor hug to Piano Man by Billy Joel!!!! He also provided the MOST beautiful uplighting for our reception space, we feel SO incredibly fortunate to have had him there on his special day!!! He is also the kindest, most amazing person, if you are looking for a wedding DJ, prepare to be absolutely wowed!!!!!!! Thank you DJUJ!!!

The Best DJ Around!

Jimmy was absolutely phenomenal! He was such a good MC and had a great mix of music for the reception! He was extremely communicative and his website for his clients is extremely user-friendly and helps you think of things you didn't even know you should think about when it comes to music for a wedding! I would definitely recommend using him. I cannot say enough amazing things about him. He is absolutely the best!! The only choice for a Chicago wedding DJ!!

Best DJ in Chicagoland

When discussing our wedding my husband and I couldn’t agree more that DJ UJ was our best vendor and is worth his weight in gold. Music is VERY important to my husband and I, so important that we get a custom record yearly. DJ UJ (James) made sure he knew that, respected that, and helped make our wedding about that. We had a LONG time of dancing planned, so long we were a little nervous people wouldn’t make the distance, DJ UJ made it to where the dance floor was active and insanely fun up until the very end. He also respected both of our families differing heritages and included some songs to bring both sides together, included songs of our favorite artists that were perfect for the wedding, threw in some phenomenal remixes, and his planning system was easy to use and made being a bride easy. As an MC he was just as great and kept our event on time, hype, and overall perfect. If you need a DJ, you need him!

I've worked with Jim both in a professional capacity and as a bride. In both situations, he has been completely professional, FUN, and a pleasure to work with. As a bride, I loved that he worked with me to make my music selection personal. He was open to playing songs that were slightly obscure (but important to us), as well as providing guidance as to other songs to fill the evening. As a photographer, I absolutely love that he gets the reception crowd partying... he makes my job so easy because everyone is out on the dance floor and laughing when he's DJing... It's just impossible to get a bad shot when people are having that much fun!
