    Wedding DJ

    Joe with Amplified Events was the perfect wedding DJ! Professional, organized, and incredibly talented. He kept the night flowing and the dance floor packed! Couldn’t have asked for a better DJ!

    Mike with Amplified is Great!

    My wife and I can't recommend Mike with Amplified events enough, he was so easy to work with and open to our vision for what we wanted at our wedding reception! We even had a few specific music requests for intros and various other things that he was more than willing to accomodate for. The app that they use is super easy and user friendly as well and made selecting music leading up to the reception very simple and stress-free. Mike and Cole brought the energy all night and the packed dance floor reflected that. We had several people come up to us at various points complimenting what a great job they did. Again, cannot recommend Mike and Amplified enough!

    Book them IMMEDIATELY (you won’t regret it)

    If you’re even thinking about booking them do it. Immediately. Run, don’t walk. Your future self (and your dance floor) will thank you. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better DJ team for our wedding. The ceremony went perfectly from volume levels, sound cues, and mic levels. Then came the reception where they absolutely crushed it!! The whole day was handled perfectly.

    Micah was incredible at reading the room and keeping the dance floor full the entire night. Every transition was smooth, every song was a banger, and the momentum never dropped

    The mixing from start to finish was spot on with no awkward gaps or weird transitions. Since the wedding, we’ve had compliment after compliment from guests saying it was the best dance floor music they’ve ever experienced, which says a lot.

    We’re attaching some photos, and honestly they speak for themselves. You can see how packed the dance floor was and how much fun everyone was having all night!

    Overall, just an amazing experience and a huge part of what made the night so memorable. If you’re even thinking about booking them do it. Immediately. Run, don’t walk. Your future self (and your dance floor) will thank you.

    Five Stars Isn’t Enough

    We loved working with Joe at Amplified Events! From planning to the wedding day, he was organized, communicative, and made everything seamless. Our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception flowed perfectly, and once dancing started, the energy never stopped. He read the room so well and kept the dance floor packed all night — we got so many compliments from guests!

    We also loved the photobooth and are so glad we added it. Now we have amazing photos from the night to look back on forever. Highly recommend Joe and Amplified Events!

    Joe was amazing!

    Joe made our wedding night unforgettable! He was so easy to work with, listened to everything we wanted, and brought such great energy. The app used to help us plan was super easy to use too! The dance floor was packed all night, and everyone kept telling us how amazing the music was. Truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Highly recommend!

    Highly recommended!

    We held our wedding a few weekends ago and we used Amplified Events. Mike was amazing to work with, he accommodated all of our requests and the entire night ran perfectly on time. We believe the DJ at a wedding can make or break the evening and we chose Amplified Events after an extremely comfortable first meeting with Mike. Mike and his team delivered on every aspect of our day and absolutely nailed every detail. We had the time of our lives! We highly recommend Amplified Events!

    Awesome DJ!

    Amplified Events was absolutely amazing! Mike kept the dance floor alive all night and made sure everyone had the best time. He was easy to work with, receptive of our needs, and happily accommodated our request for Lebanese music. The mix of Lebanese and American hits was perfect and kept the energy going nonstop. Our guests are still talking about how much fun they had. Truly hit it out of the park. As a bride, I was so happy with our choice to go with Amplified Events. If you’re looking for a great DJ, Mike is the one!

    Best nwi dj

    We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Amplified Events! From the very beginning, their professionalism and work ethic stood out. Communication was seamless throughout the entire planning process—they were always quick to respond, super organized, and incredibly easy to talk to.

    They took the time to understand our vision for the day and went above and beyond to accommodate every request, big or small. Whether it was adjusting the playlist, timing special moments, or handling last-minute changes with ease, they were incredibly flexible and supportive.

    The energy they brought to our reception was amazing! Our guests had a fantastic time, and the dance floor stayed packed all night. On top of that, we also booked their Photo Booth, which was a huge hit! It added such a fun element to the evening, and the quality of the photos was top-notch.

    If you're looking for a DJ who is not only talented but also genuinely cares about making your day perfect, look no further. Highly recommend!

    Outstanding DJ Services

    Joe did a great job communicating with us prior to, and in the days leading up to our wedding day. He was extremely professional and approachable. Jeff also assisted us during the booking process, and helped us find the ideal package for our wedding reception. Both Joe and Jeff did a great job DJ'ing at our wedding reception, and overall helped make it an incredibly organized and fun evening. I would recommend Amplified Events to anyone looking for DJ services for their event.

    Jacob and his brother did an awesome job at our wedding! They setup and took down everything seamlessly, played a good mix of music that people danced to and were really good with communicating with us before, during and after the wedding! Highly recommend!!

    Jacob performed excellently

    Jacob had such a handle on the event throughout the duration that you could have told me that despite him not yet being 30, he had been a wedding DJ for 40 years. He was adaptive to changes, responsive to requests, maintained the exact vibe we wanted throughout.

    It took little effort for us to explain exactly what we wanted as he was able to understand nearly immediately. All in all, it was a great experience. Thank you, Jacob!

    Such a great DJ

    We hired Amplified for our wedding this past weekend and Chris DJ'd our wedding! We could not have asked for a better DJ. Everything ran incredibly smooth, he was great at managing the music at our outdoor reception, MC-ing the night, fielding song requests from guests based on what we wanted for our dance floor, and thanks to him, our dance floor was packed for the whole night! We also got a photobooth from them that our guests loved!

    Chris with Amplified Events absolutely NAILED it!!!

    Chris Zart DJ'd our wedding this past Friday and we cannot recommend him enough! He was super helpful in the planning process. Easy to communicate with. He had all the timing down and knew what needed to happen throughout the day! He threw in a photo booth the day of for us, and it was absolutely the biggest hit of the night. People raved about it. Many people said that it was the most fun wedding they have ever been to, and a lot of that has to do with the DJ keeping people on the dance floor and entertained throughout the night! Thanks so much Chris!!!

    Dancing the night away!

    We just had our wedding and we cannot stop thinking about how amazing our DJ was! We had so many compliments on the playlist and our DJ Jon was incredible. He's great at understanding what his clients envision, very organized, and professional. I'm not a dancer nor a lot of my guests but our DJ created such a great playlist and vibe its hard for not to go on the dance floor!

    The best!

    Amplified Events was the perfect pick for our wedding! The planning process was simple, Mike was so helpful, and the reception was an absolute BLAST. They kept the dance floor going all night, and Mike did an amazing job at mixing songs and doing all of the announcements that we needed throughout the night! I couldn’t recommend Amplified Events more!

    The Perfect Wedding DJ Experience

    I want to take a minute to thank Amplified Events for making my wedding day so special and fun for all of my guests! Mike took every song on my playlist and added in a few more I hadn't thought of that were perfect additions to an already fire set list, sequenced everything so perfectly and gave the dance floor an energy that had everyone moving from the first song to the last dance. The photo booth was a huge hit and the pictures we have from it are now beautiful keepsakes and will serve as reminders of how much fun all of our guests had! The lighting on the floor was gorgeous and set the tone for a night of love, laughter, music, and dancing, and I cannot thank Amplified Events enough for helping everything run so smoothly and seamlessly. I highly recommend them!

    Electric dance floor

    The dance floor energy that Mike and Jeff create is truly unmatched. They have a real talent for knowing how to sequence your song requests, how much of a song to play, and how to read the room. Mike went above and beyond to help us create cuts of our first-dance song and mother-son song and even gave me the opportunity to pick my top priority songs for the last 30 min of the night from my requested songs that hadn't been played yet (which he had been diligently crossing off throughout the night). The price point is super reasonable and our guests could not stop raving about how it was the most packed wedding dance floor they ever experienced. We cannot recommend Amplified Events enough! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Mike and Jeff for the electric wedding dance floor of our dreams!!!

    Awesome DJ!

    Amplified Events knocked it out of the park. One of my main goals for my wedding was to have fun on the dance floor and Chris absolutely made that happen. We had so much fun, and all of our guest have told us how much fun they had too. I cannot recommend Amplified events enough, they are fantastic!

    Flexible, Responsive, & Fun!

    We worked directly with Mike on planning & DJ'ing our wedding at the Dunes Pavilion in Chesterton. Mike was incredibly easy to work with and flexible in our wedding planning. His planning app helped us to set our own timeline of events and coordinate each event. Two things really stood out about working with Amplified Events was the extent that Mike was able accommodate our desired flow and make last minute adjustments. Our outdoor ceremony was weather dependent and we had to make a last minute decision. Mike was easily able to accommodate an outdoor ceremony for us. During the remainder of the reception he kept a great flow of music going based on our initial playlists and kept all of our Philly area guests up to date on the Phillies scores. His DJ equipment is sleek and modern so it blends in super nicely with any venue and looks fresh and polished. Would 10/10 recommend working with Mike and his team.

    We absolutely loved having Mike as our DJ/MC for our wedding! Mike had great communication and was helpful throughout the planning process. He was great at transitioning between songs and kept people out on the dance floor all night! Mike has the best energy and we highly recommend him!!
    We also booked our Photo Booth through Amplified Events and it was a big hit at our wedding! We loved the options their Photo Booth offers and how they made sure we received a copy of all pictures taken throughout the night!

    Amplified Events is the way to go!

    I will be recommending Amplified Events, specifically Mike Kane, to everyone! Mike was our wedding DJ and he was so so great! We had multiple consultations to go over everything we wanted and he fulfilled every single wish at a VERY reasonable price! The music and lighting was absolutely gorgeous. Mike was also so accommodating the day of - bringing me and my husband water and letting me use his portable fan because it was so hot out! He helped move the ceremony chairs so we could get pictures started right away. He was just phenomenal. Our wedding was absolutely perfect and Amplified Events played a huge role in that! I cannot say thank you enough!!!!

    Great outdoor wedding celebration

    Couldn't ask for a better way to organize our special day then with music. Amplified Events knocked it out of the park meeting our needs from our ceremony to our wedding party entries to our first and last dances. Thanks Mike for working with us for what we needed to fit our unique celebration. Highly recommend them for your next event.

    Best dj in all of chicagoland!

    DJ Mike was simply the best. He was so easy to work with throughout the whole planning process and was very attentive to our needs. Him and Joey did such a great job keeping the party going and played all our favorite songs. From the music to the photo booth and uplighting, everything was so beautiful and better than we ever imagined. I could not recommend Amplified Events enough!

    The best dj ever!

    Mike is INCREDIBLE. I am a photographer and let me tell you I am picky as heck. I had two issues with two DJs prior to going with Mike. Mike fixed all those issues and made sure I felt comfortable. He even included a surprise for me the day of to make up for my horrid experience with other DJs. Music is such an important part of my day and Mike made mixes for me and helped with his program which is unbelievably easy to add songs to! I honestly have never met a nicer and more professional DJ. He's so fun and so communicative. He had everyone on the floor all night and didn't guilt me for wanting the songs I want. If you want the best DJ NWI has to offer you NEED MIKE. The best of the best. 100/10.

    Great DJ to have for your wedding!

    Mike was great since we booked him! He was always professional, personable, and quick to respond. At our wedding reception, I have never seen a dance floor more energetic. Very happy to have him for our wedding!

    Great experience with young and exciting energy

    Chris absolutely killed it on 9/5/2022. Amplified events isn’t a typical boring wedding DJ. They use state of the art equipment and provided great sounding music and awesome backlighting to the dance floor. Chris listened to all specific requests and really ran the whole night since we did not have a wedding planner. Thanks Chris!

    Outstanding!

    Kyle was so great! Could not recommend more. Extremely helpful and flexible. We got the photo booth and our guests LOVED it, so many fun memories captured. Our venue had a big blank wall so we got the monogram projected on it and it could not have been more beautiful. It really added that personal touch to our day. Such a big thank you to Amplified Events for making our day!

    Jeff EXCEEDED Expectations!!!

    Multiple people came up to me to tell us our DJ, Jeff from Amplified Events, was the best DJ they’d ever had. I gave Jeff creative freedom for dance floor music and he killed it, we were thrilled with the quality of his song choices! The Photo Booth was super unique and cool as well! 11/10 exceeded expectations, and I hope I never get married again, but I would happily hire Jeff if I did 😂

    Book them now!

    Amplified events went above and beyond to make our day special. This team had amazing response rates for my questions and always got back to me in a timely manner. We had a mix of old and young at our wedding and apart from the songs that we chose on VIBO they were able to find great tracks to play to keep everyone on the dance floor. I recommended them for a friends wedding. They helped make our day very special and memorable.

    DJs with a personal touch

    Can not recommend Mike and his team MORE. My wife and I were struggling to find a DJ that we felt connected with us and the experience we wanted to have for our wedding. To be honest, there are a lot of big heads in the DJ world, but Mike was extremely warm, open, and easy to talk to leading up to the day, always pressing that it was our moment and he was there to support our vision more than anything, and that was just the planning phase! Day of, Mike was easy going and quick witted, keeping the music flowing and the people dancing. He even picked up on subtle inside jokes between my wife in I during our ceremony that he brought back into the reception giving it even more of an "us" vibe. Honestly can't say enough about how great he was. 10/10.

    Awesome DJ, was very professional and helpful, and made wedding day very special

    Mike and his team did an amazing job at our wedding!! We would recommend Amplified Events to anyone looking for DJ/ Videography services! He went above and beyond our expectations, and we couldn’t have asked for a better crew to make our special day memorable! He was very professional, and helped guide us through any questions or concerns we had.

    Amazing Experience

    Mike and his team at Amplified were so helpful in planning and executing an amazing ceremony and reception. The music was perfect and kept the entire wedding crew dancing all night long. They were super-accomodating for any special requests and made the night so easy for us. We cannot recommend Mike/Amplified enough if you are looking to have a great reception that people are raving about for years to come!

    Amazing DJ, great company!

    I couldn't have been more happy with Jon and his assistant from Amplified Events! We're not big dancers, and we had a morning/day wedding, so we didn't want a dance party. Also, our music tastes really aren't your typical pop/dance songs (I specifically put some of the more popular songs I've heard at weddings on the no-play list). At the same time, I didn't want guests to be bored, and I knew some of them would like to have dancing, so I was a bit worried about how things would turn out. Jon did an amazing job at selecting songs for the entire day based on the limited list I gave him for "must play" and "play if possible." He played some songs I hadn't heard in years but that used to be some of my favorites (I was super excited about that!), and he played songs that fit our genres and that also got people dancing. Everything was perfect, everyone had a great time, and Jon was a big part of bringing it all together! Finally, we had to delay our wedding twice because of covid. We're grateful to Mike Kane for being so accommodating and making the rescheduling as stress-free as was possible given the circumstances!

    We had such a great experience with Amplified Events! Mike was quick to respond to any of our questions and helped us pick the best package for our wedding! Our DJ Jon was wonderful and kept such a perfect flow of music to keep everyone out on the dance floor! We also loved using the Salsa Booth and our guests had a great time with it! We would definitely recommend the Amplified Events team and are so grateful we had them for our reception!

    Awesome DJ!!

    I can’t say enough great things about Mike and Amplified events. Our wedding was at Sand Creek Country Club this past summer and he was one of the vendors that was recommended by them.

    He had plenty of expert advice on what would make the ceremony, timeline, walk outs, speeches, and dances run the most smoothly but was also super open to any ideas we had of our own. He was detail-oriented which made us feel confident about how things would turn out and we were never left feeling like we didn’t know what was going on. He was timely with all of his responses and always made our concerns feel valid.

    On the day of the event, everything went off without a hitch. At one point, my mom got up to say a few words and forgot her reading glasses. She started to stumble and became nervous as most people would. Mike slipped right in to help her read without taking any of the spotlight from my mom. He’s a true professional and that meant so much to all of us.

    We received the most compliments about our DJ/Music compared to any other vendor (by far).Everyone had such a blast.

    Also the photo booth - just do it. It’s 1000% worth the memories and hilarious pictures.

    Thanks again Mike and Amplified Events!

    Jeff was our DJ and he was AWESOME! He communicated with me prior to the event to assure things would run smoothly. Amplified Events uses a cool music platform to allow you to pick out songs to fit your occasion. Amplified Events stepped up at the last minute when the previous DJ was not able to do the event. It went extremely well!

    Michael Kane and his team are phenomenal!! He was so “go with the flow” during the COVID craziness of our wedding. He was always accessible and willing to answer any questions we had. During the wedding, they were able to read the crowd very well to see what was vibing and what was not. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

    Best DJ Experience!

    Long story short - you should book Amplified Events for your event. They were, BY FAR, the most reasonably priced DJ we spoke with. On top of that, they were absolutely wonderful to work with. Mike was incredibly responsive with contract-related and preliminary discussions. Our DJ was Jacob, and he played the perfect combination of songs that kept our guests on the dance floor. You cannot go wrong with choosing Amplified Events! If we have a follow-up party of any kind, we're calling them again!

    What A Day

    We hired Amplified Events to DJ our wedding and we could not have had a better experience with Mike and Marc. Mike made the prep for the music selection and ordering of events for the wedding a breeze; in fact, it may have been our favorite part of wedding planning. From our phone calls leading up to the wedding to the day-of, Mike was friendly and accommodating and it elevated the day for everyone.

    Mike is a master showman. Multiple people confided to us on and after the reception that it was one of the most enjoyable weddings they had attended, and Amplified Events played a huge role in that. Spotlights on and transitions between wedding events were excellent and Mike knows how to seamlessly get a group of people onto the dancefloor. Thanks for making it a perfect day, Amplified Events!

    Mike from Amplified Events was seriously incredible! He was our DJ for our wedding this past weekend and I can not recommend him enough! He helped us through the entire planning process, was kind, professional, and the dance floor was literally packed all night. If you’re even considering going with Amplified Events, do it. You’ll thank me later!

    Amplified Events

    Wow, I don’t even know where to begin to describe the OUTSTANDING service, Mike, from Amplified Events provided us.

    Continuing with a wedding during a pandemic caused my husband and I to be extremely nervous and not know how the rest of 2020 would play out, so having reassuring vendors became a priority.

    Amplified events went ABOVE AND BEYOND. They were super responsive to emails and created the vision my husband and I desired. You don’t want a genre played at your wedding? No problem, Amplified Events got your back with the ‘do not play song list’.

    Our wedding day could not have been more perfect and we could not thank them enough. If you book Amplified Events, you will not worry about a song being played off cue or your microphone going out. They also provide much more than what we anticipated: lights, salsa booth, MC, Dinner on Vinyl, the Vibo app, and finally, their overwhelming positivity, support and reassurance.

    We were referred by a friend who hired Amplified Events for their wedding, so we will always highly recommend these guys to the future friends who become engaged as well. HIRE THEM, NO DOUBT.Read Less

    Great Experience

    I would highly recommend Amplified Events. We worked with Mike and Amanda for our wedding and they were outstanding. Prior to the wedding they got to know us and spent time planning for all of the details (many we hadn't even thought of yet). During the wedding, they were accommodating of last minute changes and helped the night run smoothly. They were incredibly friendly and professional. They are a great company and we were so happy with their services!

    Not a single regret

    Mike and his staff were incredible. Hiring them was one of the best decisions we made regarding our wedding by far. Mike was organized, professional, and kind through every interaction. He was an excellent MC and was flexible with any changes that we required and even took care of things that we didn’t think of. He kept the dance floor full all night and played exactly what the crowd wanted. We had an amazing wedding music and sound experience from the ceremony, to the cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. We HIGHLY recommend Mike and Amplified Events.

    Mike was AMAZING! We received so many compliments about how packed our dance floor was all night, and we know we owe that all to Mike! Several of our vendors even commented about how great the music was and how the crowd Mike was also incredibly easy to work with, checking in with us multiple times before the big day and carefully ensuring he got all of the details, names, etc. correct. He took all of our thoughts and ideas and made them work perfectly for the big day! We are so happy we went with Amplified Events!!

    Mike is Amazing!

    We recently had our October, 2019 wedding at Journeyman Distillery in Three Oaks, Michigan, where Mike and Amplified Events were highly recommended. Mike and his team were all amazing and we loved working with them.

    Mike was able to have multiple discussions with us to go over our musical tastes and what we wanted out of our wedding. He covered everything from "must" plays, "preferred" plays and "do not" plays, and he stuck to all of our suggestions at the wedding itself. He also was able to help us create specific playlists for the cocktail hour and dinner sessions which differed from the dance song requests. Any songs he did not have in his current playlist he was able to download beforehand. He even was able to mash together two specific songs for a specific dance based on simply providing him with the requested songs and time stamps for the music change. He was also able to supplement our suggestions with his own choices, all of which kept our guests happy and on the dance floor the whole night. We warned him that our family and friends loved to dance if given the right music, and he delivered! We had a lot of long and difficult names to pronounce in our wedding party, and Mike made sure to practice beforehand so he nailed each of them. And finally, in our opinion all of his services were offered at a very favorable and comparably affordable rate!

    Overall, we had a great experience with them and would highly recommend Mike and Amplified Events to anyone looking for a wedding DJ in his area!

    Everyone we worked with from Amplified Events was great! We had two main genre requests - county and latin. They did a fantastic job mixing the two and keeping the dance floor packed the entire night!

    10/10 would use again

    Mike at Amplified Events was incredible! He kept our crowd entertained and out on the dance floor all night. The Instagram picture printing was a huge hit with our guests! We will be telling everyone we know to choose him!

    Amazing DJ

    Mike was amazing to work with. He was prompt in communication. We were pretty particular about the type of music we wanted (mainly bangers) and Mike delivered. Everyone was blow away with his transition and the jams he played. We were thoroughly impressed.

    Amplified Events was Outstanding!

    My wife and I highly recommend Amplified Events. Chris was the DJ at our wedding reception, and did an outstanding job. He played all of our requests at the proper time, kept everything moving and kept everyone on the dance floor all night long! He carried himself professionally, and was easy to reach leading up to the big day to answer any questions that we had. Thank you so much!

    Awesome Wedding!

    Amplified Events is an awesome company that provided DJ services for our wedding. They were true professionals who worked to make our wedding truly special. They provided us with online planning tools that allowed us to put our personal touch on the entire night. The mood lighting set the tone for a fun reception and the music was at the perfect volume. Amplified Events also provided microphones and equipment that allowed our ceremony to be heard by all of our guests and the music as my wife walked down the aisle was perfect. Amplified Events is a superior DJ service with professional and fun staff.

    DJ Extraordinaire

    Look no further - the search for your DJ is over. I cannot begin to express how pleased my husband and I were with Amplified Events. From the start, Mike was incredible about communicating and getting everything in order prior to our big day. He was super accommodating to all of the requests either we or our family made, everything from special song requests/dedications, to incorporating a sound file into the father/daughter dance. During the wedding, the dance floor was constantly alive with people singing and dancing. We received non-stop compliments both during and after the wedding about the song selection and how much fun the night was! Mike & Joey, you guys rocked the house down - thank you for creating such a festive evening for us and our guests!

    The best dj literally ever

    Would I recommend Amplified Events to a friend? HECK YES! The first time we sat down with Mike we knew instantly leaving Starbucks that this was a one million percent yes with booking with him. He was an absolute asset to our day. I think he would be an asset to anyone's day. Music selection was absolutely spot on! Thanks for everything Mike

The lighting he did for our venue was beautiful and he was great at reading my unique crowd to play the music that kept everyone dancing! Would recommend him to anyone/everyone!

    The best dj

    Mike (& Eric) at Amplified events are absolutely incredible! from day 1, Mike was so helpful. He touched base, made sure he got to know us, and helped when we were forgetting certain details. My fiance(now husband) and I did all of our wedding planning on our own, so having someone so knowledgeable and experienced to DJ our wedding was very helpful! The day of, he played the PERFECT music for the whole night. He asked ahead of time for some song in categories of "absolutely play", "do NOT play", and "it would be nice if played but also ok if not". He had the categories titled differently, but you get the gist. He thought of things, I otherwise would not have and our wedding day was incredible because of it! My family and friends also raved about Mike!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

    Best of the Best

    Amplified Events exceeded our expectations in every way. Mike is a true professional and very easy to work with. He made sure everything ran smoothly the day of. We gave an example list of songs we wanted but let them take over. The dance floor was packed all night! We received so many compliments on the music from our guests. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

    Gem of a DJ

    From the day we booked Mike, he was very responsive and friendly. He was flexible in letting us plan most of the playlist and offered to meet us ahead of time to run through what we could expect for the day. This was super helpful and gave us lots of confidence in our last month of planning. It was after this meeting that we decided to add uplighting from him and it looked fantastic. Everything ran smoothly with Mike at the helm and guests were on the dance floor all night. We couldn't have imagined a better night!

    DJ? Look no further!

    Amplified Events did such an amazing job at our wedding! Mike is such an easy going guy and really just helped capture the perfect day for us. Not only was Mike our DJ for our reception but he was also our officiant for our ceremony! He made things so easy. He told us exactly what we needed to do and made finding the right music to use so easy! I felt like it was a couple things just lifted off my shoulders that I didn't have to worry about! Mike and Eric could not have been more fun for our reception. Everyone loved them! They kept people dancing the entire night and our reception went until midnight! There are so many different packages you can do when going with Amplified events but one I would not hesitate on is the up lighting! That made the entire venue look absolutely stunning! We had so many compliments. The venue is looking into their own up lighting now because of Mike! Thank you again for helping make our special day the one we always dreamed of!

    They set everything up and everyone that needed to be mic’d, were. The atmosphere was set perfectly! Everyone was able to hear and enjoy the music and fun! The additional items are worth every penny! If you are thinking about it, do it!
    Very professional, in and out with set up and clean up, overall could not be happier! And you know what they say, happy wife, happy life!

    Amplified Events did a great job at our wedding! First, they provided music and mics for our outdoor ceremony. Everything went smoothly! Afterward, they moved the speaker to our cocktail hour nearby and played our requested soft rock playlist. They set up their DJ equipment and lights in the reception room where we expected the dancing to happen. As the night went on, the party started moving outside so everyone could dance under the stars. They quickly accommodated by moving the speakers and lights outside to keep the party going! We received several compliments from the guests about the songs the DJs, Chris and Eric, were playing and how smooth their transitions were. We couldn't be happier with their service!

    Mike is as good as it gets! First off, he is so good-natured and really joined in the fun of planning out-of-the-box songs for the different time points during the reception; he really made the planning fun. The planning website is easy to navigate, which made making specific pre-event song requests simple. He even found very specific old-school GERMAN songs on the spot during the reception- so perfect for our crowd! The up-lighting really set the mood and he worked seamlessly with our venue. The quality of his sound-system was excellent. Seriously, if they're available for your event, book Amplified Events- you will not regret it!

    Okay, if you’re reading this, book Amplified Events! First off, everything was perfect! Chris and Ben were so amazing!!! I kept getting compliments from guests at my wedding on how good the music was! I haven’t seen my grandma enter a dance floor in years, yet they got her to dance out there with us!

    Chris was also excellent with communication! He was patient, picked up my musical taste instantly, and rolled with the fact that our time line got a little messed up perfectly.

    Also Mike is so easy to work with from the beginning. He is quick to answer and questions, he listens to your needs well, and is very professional yet fun!

    I could not been more pleased with how Amplified Events did and you bet I will be referring everyone I know in need of a DJ to them!

    A party is only as good as it’s music, and they crushed it!

    We booked Amplified Events for our wedding & couldn't be happier with them. They set the atmosphere perfectly all night with a great sounding system & a classy mix of music; we really felt that they understood exactly the mood we wanted & did a wonderful job rising to the occasion.

    They were also super easy to work with, providing a handy form in advance where we could make special requests or suggestions (including a "do not play" list, a blessing for those not looking to cha-cha slide on their special day.) They had no trouble handling some of our more unusual song requests & were able to fill in the gaps perfectly. Their attitude was professional, friendly, & courteous.

    On top of all this, they seem to genuinely enjoy & care about the art of the mix, always reading the mood of the dancefloor well & keeping the party moving smoothly. We had a nice blend of sentimental soul towards the beginning of the night that gradually made way to the more raucous fun stuff after the old folks & kids went to bed. I was particularly impressed after requesting "Music Sounds Better With You" (which I neglected to include on the original form) & they not only obliged, but seamlessly blended it into two other favorites. We were extremely satisfied with Amplified Events & would gladly recommend them to anybody looking for a DJ in the area.

    My husband and I could not have been happier with Mike Kane from Amplified Events. Mike was recommended to us by our wedding coordinator who could not say enough good things, so we already had a good feeling about him. After meeting with him, we felt Mike understood us and our kind of music and the kind of atmosphere we were hoping for. He made sure he could pronounce the bridal party and parent's names and he went over all the details of how the night would run. Mike was easy to get in touch with in the weeks and days leading up to our wedding and he always got back to us promptly. The dance floor was always full and people had a great time dancing. So many people came up to us during the wedding and afterwards praising Mike and the music, saying it was the best wedding ever. Mike not only took care of the music for our reception, but also officiated our wedding and took care of the ceremony music. He was very organized and fun to work with in all aspects. We highly recommend Amplified Events!

    From about five minutes into our phone conversation, I knew that we did not need to look any further for our wedding DJ. Mike definitely knows what he is doing. Easily the best DJ Tim and I have ever worked with. His professionalism was outstanding. He was able to fill in the blanks that we failed to even think about, and had awesome suggestions when were stuck between decisions. He is extremely organized and super helpful. His personality is one of a kind and meshed with us right away. He was able to transition all of the kinds of music we loved, as well as playing the roll of a sports announcer. Everything was perfect. We could not have had such a memorable day without him. Thank you Mike!

    We had such a wonderful experience using Amplified Events for our wedding! They were incredibly professional and service oriented. We felt as though they listened to what we wanted. They did an amazing job moving the evening along and creating a fun atmosphere. We had several friends and family who complimented on the spectacular emceeing and DJ experience! We highly recommend you book them! They know just how to get everyone on the dance floor and keeping the energy high. If you want a lame dance floor, you shouldn’t choose Amplified events. But it you want an unforgetable dance floor, then Amplified events is for you!!!

    Mike DJed my wedding in Sperryville, VA back in September 2016. I've known him for about 20 years.

    He is, simply put, the best DJ I've ever known and one of the most honorable and dedicated men you'll ever meet.

    Indeed, some of my guests, even a year later, still bring up how awesome he was when talking my wedding.

    A few examples of my time working with him:
    - Mike is cool under pressure. My wife and I planned the wedding ourselves and many of the little details we neglected until game time. Literally less than an hour before the wedding, Mike was helping me pick a few last songs for the ceremony. I gave him a very vague vision for what we'd like and he knew the exact right song. We couldn't have done it without him!
    - Mike has a canny ability to read a room and tailor the music to the mood and audience. You that moment in the wedding when people are still not really on the dance floor but need that little push to get the party started? Mike knew our crowd and played exactly the jams to pack the dance floor. ("Party in the USA" in our case.!)
    - Mike is a consummate professional. He's not one of those DJs that thinks he knows best and goes over the heads of the bride and groom. Indeed, he respected our music selections and kindly eschewed things we didn't want to do (like the Chicken Dance). Also, he knows how to delicately deal with the drunks who make absurd requests that will kill the party.
    - Mike understands the importance of the moment yet knows how to have fun. Between the first dance and the dance-off, Mike knows when to be serious and when to be silly, and fosters an atmosphere that enables both and creates memories that will last a lifetime.

    You will not regret using Mike as your DJ! He was awesome, really got the party going. I used him for my own wedding and have been to a few other's weddings where he does just KEEPS THE PARTY GOING! He's so good at reading how the crowd is feeling and will move the music to what they like.

    After attending all of our friends' weddings who had Mike DJ their event, we knew we had to snag him for our wedding! In all honesty, choosing him was by far the greatest decision we ever made during our planning. Mike and his colleague went above and beyond for my husband and I with not only exceeding our expectations in terms of music, but also keeping the event flowing smoothly and on schedule! Suffice it to say, if you're thinking about going with Amplified Events for your event - stop thinking and do it!!!

    Mike Kane and I were members of a trivia team that tried to get together on a weekly basis. He always impressed me with his music knowledge, but I had the privilege of seeing his true character right after my engagement. Mike took the time to make a detailed list of excellent vendors throughout NWI/Chicagoland. From the get-go, it was obvious that he’s passionate and very professional about his work.

    Shortly thereafter, we met Mike for lunch, and he walked us through the many options we’d have available on our big day. For some, planning the minute details of a wedding can be overwhelming, but having someone like Mike as a guide through each step made everything so much easier — and FUN!

    All of the vendors we worked with for our wedding were pumped to hear Mike would be working with us as well. That really meant a lot, and helped us make our decision.

    Mike was on-point any time I had a question regarding lighting and/or our playlist, which he took care of during the ceremony, dinner, and reception. He even played some of our favorite vinyl to add to the ambiance at dinner!

    If you’re looking for an experienced DJ, who will wow your guests and keep them on the dance floor, Amplified will not disappoint!

    Michael Kane was the DJ at our wedding in Aug. 2015. He made the planning so easy and was flexible to work with. The sound was fantastic. He had great lighting features too. His game idea was a big hit: raised our shoes for who did what. All of our guests commented how much they enjoyed the DJ. Overall we were very pleased with Michael Kane and are so happy we choose him!

    Mike was a DJ long before he decided to make a career out of it. Entertaining and hosting parties always came so natural. Some of my favorite college memories were at Mike's parties where he made certain everyone had an amazing night. "Epic" was often the word thrown around the next day.
    He's come a long way from those days perfecting his craft and turning his passion into a career. I have attended events as well as weddings where Mike has been the DJ and it's never a let down. He is extremely personable, accommodating, and most importantly gets to know his crowd. If you are a bride or groom he will get to know your wants and needs and deliver.
    Between his charisma and music choices which are thoughtfully selected with your event in mind you're guaranteed to have a packed dance floor. Amplified Events will certainly provide you with the night of your life. I can't recommend him enough.

    Mike Kane is the best! We hired him to DJ our wedding reception, and we couldn't have asked for better service. He was well-organized, responsive, and accommodating. Every time we spoke with Mike, we came away feeling confident that everything was under control (which is priceless while planning a wedding). When our big day came around, Mike kept everything moving along right on schedule and kept people on the dance floor until it was time to shut down the party. We would highly recommend him!

    Mike is hands-down the best DJ I've seen at a wedding. We all know it's more than just putting on the music and letting it play. He's a maestro of the crowd, manages the energy of the group extremely well, and ultimately extracts the most enjoyable time out of whatever event he's spinning for. Trust me, Mike DJ-ing for your event will make it an even better time - guaranteed. You'll not be disappointed.

    Easily the best money we spent on the entire wedding/reception process - worth every penny. We didn't know what we were doing when it came to the reception. Our DJ walked us through the process, got us thinking about what we wanted and didn't want and helped us create a music and event list that we loved. We barely had to do anything and Amplified Events tailored the music to our tastes and personally AND made our reception way more fun than we ever imagined.

    Amplified events made our wedding day so much more special. Mike made sure to listen and incorporate all of our ideas and requests. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better! Everyone had so much fun and the dance floor was busy all night. Thanks again!!

    We are so happy to have chosen Amplified Events for our wedding DJ. Music is very important to my wife and I so picking a DJ was an important step in our wedding planning. Mike worked with us to find out exactly how we wanted our day to go. He did a wonderful job with music and running sound at our outdoor ceremony. As far as the reception goes everything was perfect. Announcements and toasts all went great. Once the dance floor opened it was never empty the rest of the night. Mike took our list of requests and did what he does best and read the crowd and made sure our night was magical. Two years later and we still get compliments and comments about how much fun our wedding was. I can't recommend Amplified Events enough.

    Our experience with Amplified Events and Mike Kane specifically was everything we hoped for. Throughout the process, Mike was friendly and fun, yet still very professional and without being the least bit overbearing or unpleasant. On the day of our wedding, he ran everything smoothly, handled all the details we weren't concerned with, and fit in just about every single one of our song requests while keeping the party much more hopping than we had expected.

    Mike Kane is an excellent DJ, and especially so in all the ways don't involve playing music. He kept the energy alive without drawing much attention to himself, and from guest accounts afterwards, he was incredibly personable the whole reception without slacking on any of his duties. From our perspective, he was perfect at letting us know when we had dawdled too long on one stage of the reception without making us feel in the least bit rushed. An all around great guy to work with, and a fantastic choice for any wedding.
