10/10 Experience from Start to End

We heard of Show on the Road via word of mouth and have heard great things. We had Joe as our DJ along with Andrew and Bryana for our photo booth. Joe did an amazing job keeping the dance floor going and being our MC for the night. Show on the Road is very easy to work with and we would recommend their services for any event.

100% recommend! Great service and great people!

Joe and Chuck were absolutely amazing. Provided top quality service, very attentive and were able to accommodate to all our requests. We are so glad we chose Show On The Road for our wedding and we 1000% recommend them! 5 star service!

I think the price adjusted well to our budget and we got everything we wanted for our special day. Most importantly, both showed great professionalism but also brought great energy to our party.

If you are planning to have a wedding/big event in the Chicago area, I would definitely recommend you to look into working with them!

Dance the night away!

We had the best time ever with Show on the Road as our wedding DJ! From the very first song, the energy was perfect — Chuck had everyone out on the dance floor all night. The mix of millennial bangers and our personal song requests was spot on (I swear every song was a crowd favorite!).

Chuck was so kind, hands-on, and incredibly responsive throughout the whole process — he made everything feel easy and stress-free. The uplighting around the room looked amazing and really brought the whole vibe together. He read the crowd perfectly and kept the party going right up to the last song — no one wanted it to end!

If you want a DJ who knows how to keep the dance floor packed and make your wedding unforgettable, Show on the Road is it! 🎶💃🕺

Book them!!

We could not be happier with our experience with DJ Joe! He has now DJed three of our family weddings, and every single time he absolutely crushes it. Our dance floor was packed from the first song to the very last, and he somehow managed to keep guests of all ages dancing all night long.

Beyond just the music, Joe made sure the lighting and overall vibe of the venue were perfect. We took his recommendations on color choices, and thank goodness we did — the atmosphere was stunning!

We can’t recommend Show on the Road enough. If you’re looking for a DJ who will make your wedding unforgettable, Joe is your guy!

Highly Recommend!

We couldn’t be happier with Show On The Road! Joe did an absolutely amazing job at our wedding. From start to finish, he kept the energy up all night long. The music selection was perfect, with something for everyone, and our guests haven’t stopped talking about how much they loved the variety.

We originally hired Show On The Road based on a friend’s recommendation, and now we completely understand why. Joe truly knows how to read the crowd and keep the party going. We’ll definitely be recommending him to anyone looking for a DJ! Thanks again Joe!

A beautiful wedding made possible by an amazing DJ

I was the groom and can’t express in words how much Joe helped us the months leading up to and day of the wedding.

My wife had been to some events that Joe had DJ’d for and she wanted him for our wedding. Even before we signed the contract, Joe really took some time to clearly communicate with us about our expectations and how we can make our wedding into reality. He brought great ideas that we didn’t consider before and when we finally signed the contract, he provided a detailed list of what he required from us. I’m a punchlist type of guy and his organization/communication style lined right up with mine.

His forms helped organize our thoughts and the wedding timeline. This gave us a guideline to start our meetings and facilitate the discussion especially in the most minor of details. He provided insight into what works best in practice, how we can improve on our ideas, and things to consider. His experience as a DJ really showed.

On the day of the wedding, there were moments of confusion with our coordinator. When Joe noticed, he took charge and guided the bridal party through our entrances and also reminded us to have fun! Not only that, there were constant and clear communications throughout the night so there wouldn’t be any surprises for performances, dances, and other events during the wedding.

His song choices throughout the wedding kept everyone dancing and it was never a dull moment on the dance floor. When i say everyone, i mean everyone including our grandparents and my mom! It was so special to be able to give them that moment to dance and have fun with everyone.

If anyone is looking for a DJ that cares, that wants you to have a beautiful wedding as much as you do, that is professional, that clearly communicates, that loves making everyone dance their heart out… then i highly recommend Joe. It was a night that I will forever remember and i greatly appreciate Joe for all the effort he puts into his work.

They made our night- we were dancing the night away and everyone was on The dance floor! We were well taken care of and HIGHLY RECOMMEND. I am referring them to anyone and everyone that ask for a DJ. Thanks so much Chuck and Joe! .

Great DJ and Photobooth


We had this DJ and photobooth for our wedding. The staff was excellent and attentive. I received several compliments from our guests about the music selection. The DJ kept the party going and the dance floor filled. The photobooth was so fun, especially for our granddaughter who made sure EVERYONE got their picture taken!! I would recommend this vendor to anyone!!

The dancing did not stop!

We had a wonderful experience working with Joe and Chuck. We felt from the initial interview that we were in really good hands. We booked both the Photo Booth and DJ. They were very professional during the process and we always felt taken care of. On the wedding day they make sure you and your guests have the best time - the dancing did not stop at our wedding and our Photo Booth photos turned out great.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
