We cannot say enough great things about Monastero Entertainment. Monastero was fantastic to work with from the start. They were timely in all communication and thorough throughout the planning. The planning form was easy to use. DJ Mike was amazing! He was wonderful about communicating with us throughout the event and kept our wedding timeline/flow and the dance floor packed throughout the evening! Transitions between songs were seamless and we received compliments all night from guests about how awesome our DJ was! We would highly recommend Monastero Entertainment.

We had the pleasure of working with Joe from Monastero Entertainment for our wedding. We initially coordinated with Roberto who recommended Joe for our event. We had a seamless transition to Joe taking over and met with him to discuss our music preferences. On the day of the event, Joe was a great MC and helped communicate to provide cues to keep us on schedule. He coordinated well with the other vendors and helped make our day run smoothly. The music he selected was a great representation of our taste and helped keep the dance floor crowded. We received many compliments on the music selection and were contacted by guests following the event for the vendor information due to their positive experiences. Overall, we had a great time working with Monastero events and would highly recommend them!

We got married downtown at River Roast and to say that the day was nothing short of exceptional... well, it was. Jessica at RR let us in on some of the best vendors in the industry and they did not disappoint. Pete and Miguel were our DJ and emcee crew - they rocked it. Super friendly, very knowledgeable about music, and extremely talented when it came to blending songs together, they were A+++. If you can hire them, do so asap. Rob (who I believe owns the company) helped us navigate the process. He even pre-mixed my dance with my dad - we surprised my dad with a 3 min mash-up of Beatles tunes that seamlessly transitioned from one song to the next. Guests loved it. We so enjoyed working with Monastero entertainment. Two big thumbs up.

We absolutely recommend working with Monastero Entertainment. Joe was the DJ for our wedding, and he did a great job MC-ing. People were dancing the entire night! We received so many compliments about Joe from our wedding guests Both Rob and Joe were wonderful to work with from the beginning to end - listening to our requests and customizing playlists to create an incredibly fun atmostphere.

Working with Rob planning the music for our wedding was great. Excellent communication and planning and he really made us feel at ease while planning everything. Our wedding DJ Mike was also fantastic and easy to work with. Our guest loved the music!

If you want an over priced club DJ, look elsewhere. If you want a real person (who is insanely talented) who is passionate about their craft and cares more about making your day perfect than their own instagram following - then this is the crew for you.

Working with the Monastero crew was such a breeze! They were by far the most enjoyable vendors we worked with during our wedding process - because they actually cared about us.

DJ Joe Medrano did a phenomenal job the night of! He was incredibly professional, wildly courteous (making sure all of our special requests were fulfilled and checking in on us throughout the night but in the most helpful way and never annoying), he was fantastic interacting with guests, and his song selection was off the charts! We tasked him with the difficult assignment of making sure no dance circles broke out - and he managed to do exactly that! Naturally he followed our must and do no play lists perfectly, but he really shinned in the middle - reading the room and timing songs perfectly throughout the night to keep the dance floor packed and keep our guests entertained.

Rob, the owner, was incredibly helpful throughout the planning process too! He gave us some awesome suggestions to help the day flow smoother, sent us examples of songs and ideas, and even helped customize some of our individual dance songs (eg father/bride, mom/son, 1st dance, last dance). On our first call rob explained that they don’t advertise because they get most of their business via word of mouth - and now I absolutely understand why!!

I cannot even begin to explain the quality of service DJ Mike gave us on our wedding day. I felt like I was a family member of his and he wanted to give me the absolute wedding of my dreams - which he did. My husband and I had calls with him beforehand which he guided and ensured every base was covered. He had a timeline, followed it perfectly and ensured my wedding day flowed effortlessly. I couldn’t imagine a better DJ. I’m so thankful for DJ MIKE!!!!!

We hired Monastero Entertainment for our wedding on 5/16/25; and we could not recommend them enough!! Rob was so helpful and communicative throughout the entire planning process. DJ Joe was amazing! He listened to our style and preferences and made sure there was a fun energy on the dance floor all night long. We also did a photobooth package which was the perfect addition to our day!

Truly can’t believe how amazing Rob was! He has a way with the crowd and kept them totally hyped all night. He was so kind and focused on us as a couple and sure that we were happy and taken care of all night. It was perfect, he did incredible mixes and mashups for us and even perfectly edited our wedding song. We also heard SSOOOOO many compliments from our guests about how great he was. Rob even sang for us and the talent that man has was incomparable. He added another unique and touching point to our wedding we won't ever forget.

We had Mike Sauciuc from the Monastero Entertainment’s team DJ our wedding in Chicago this past summer, and we couldn’t have been happier on our wedding day!! We have gotten endless compliments since about how incredible our dance floor was, and we truly have Mike to thank for curating the most fun dancing environment!! The way our music was mixed to flow smoothly from song to song was such a additive touch! If you’re looking to book a DJ for your wedding look no further. We couldn’t recommend this team more (and booked them after attending a few weddings that Rob Monastero DJ’ed)! Rob was also incredibly helpful in being in touch every step of the way to ensure everything was planned well in advance, providing a great website/platform to plan with, etc.
