Excellent all around!
Johnny was amazing to work with and was so understanding when we had to change our date 3 times due to COVID. Steven was our DJ and him and his assistant were great! Couldn’t be happier with their service. -

Dependable Wedding DJs did an amazing job at our wedding on 5/13/16!! Jason, our DJ, helped to keep everything organized and flowing the entire night! The dance floor was full from the time the music started until the very end - our guests chanted for an encore after our time at the venue was up! DWD's website was extremely user friendly and it was easy to choose and organize the songs and genres we wanted to play (and also make a list of the ones we didn't want to play!!). For each event throughout the evening and night (introductions, first dances, etc), their website provided spots to insert each song we wanted to play during those moments. Again, their website is so easy to use and incredibly organized! Jacob ran the photo booth which was absolutely great and was enjoyed by all of our guests! They have so many different options for masks, hats, signs, etc. for the photo booth and it was incredibly fun!!! My husband and I highly recommend them to anyone getting married in the Chicagoland area! -

A very dependable DJ indeed
Johnny was excellent! He did our ceremony and reception! He kept the music going, and he was a great MC, keeping the events at the reception going too! Johnny was very helpful when planning the music for our wedding. His easy going attitude made working with him a breeze! -

Johnny from Dependable Wedding DJs was a pleasure to work with! The level of service we received for the price was absolutely fantastic.
We gave him our "must play" list and he blended these songs perfectly with the rest of the evening. He also gave us some advice to make sure that our unique live recording of our first dance song would work.
Most importantly, I didn't have to worry about anything the whole night. He would always give a warning when an important moment was coming up and would find my husband in the crowd so he knew as well. The dance floor was crowded the entire evening and we heard from many, many guests about how great the DJ was! -

Had a Blast!
I was worried our dj might leave people sitting in their seats but that was not the case! Our DJ kept everyone on the dance floor and having a good time. He also listened to what we said our style was and played the perfect songs and just the right time of the reception. -

We were extremely happy with the dj services Dependable Wedding Djs provided for us! Jacob provided ideas for songs we could use when we weren't sure on some of them. He also helped put together a mixed track so that my husband and I, along with the bridal party, could do a flashmob for our bridal party dance. He played music that kept our family and friends dancing all night! He answered any questions we had in a timely fashion. He was a great pleasure to work with! My husband and I would definitely recommend him to others!Dependable Wedding Djs & Photo Booths's reply:
Thank you for the Great Review Justine! Your wedding was a blast and the Flash Mob was a huge hit! I wish you and Matt the best in your new life's together... -

Dependable wedding DJ's get great marks from my husband and me. Through their website my family and friends were able to request songs before the wedding day (we were able to also). They were very helpful with uplighting and setting everything up right and on time. You can personalize your package as much as you want-they provided a screen and projector so I could play my pictures of my father and me while we were dancing. Did a great job with name pronunciations and made sure to double check names before the introductions into the reception. He also was able to find/download odd song requests very quickly and kept my guests dancing. Everything was smooth and professional and would (and already have) request this DJ to any of my friends or family-or any bride looking for a great DJ service for a great price! Also, ask DJ about photographer (he introduced me to the one that took my pictures and the deal I got was amazing-as was the quality). -

Jacob did an AMAZING job for my wedding which was at a brand new hotel. We were only the third wedding at the hotel, so there were a lot of unknowns to work with. Jacob handled everything like a true professional, and the entire day ran smoothly largely because of him. Because I had no clue what my wedding reception room even looked like, I was completely unsure at to what kind of lighting I would need. Jacob took much of the lighting situation into his own hands, was extremely generous, and made the place look beautiful. My father-in-law wanted to perform a song for us, so Jacob ensured that equipment was set up for him. When it came time for the speeches, Jacob scoped out the maid of honor and best man to let them know that their time was almost coming up. EVERYBODY had a great time, and after the last song was played, Jacob played two additional songs because nobody wanted to stop dancing. I would hire Jacob again in a heartbeat! -

My family cannot say enough great things about Dependable Wedding DJs service. We hired Johnny P. To play at our Daughter’s Wedding and he was outstanding! He delivered everything we discussed... from lighting, setting up and showing a video, his fantastic deep voice introductions and of course the fantastic music system! He helped make our daughter’s wedding a huge success! We can’t wait for another event so we can hire him again! -

It was a easy decison when picking a dj for our wedding. We saw Jacob at two weddings before ours and we knew that he would do a great job!! We couldnt have been happier! Everyone was on the dance floor the whole night, and there was something for everyone. Even when he noticed some people leaving the dance floor he would switch it up and everyone would be back out there!! He was very helpful when picking songs and really tried to make sure he knew everyone in the wedding party. We have reccommended him to MANY friends and im sure we will be seeing him again. Thanks again Jacob!! -

Dependable Wedding DJs should be the only choice for your upcoming wedding! Not only are they reasonably priced, the DJ I worked with, Jacob, was very helpful and accommodating. Throughout the entire process whenever I needed a question answered or clarification on anything, he was always timely with his responses. Always professional, always upbeat, and always willing to go the extra mile! The company is very organized and an easy pick for anyone that wants to have a great time dancing the night away on their special day. -

Jacob is a great guy! He cares so much about you and making your wedding a day to remember. He covered our ceremony and reception with ease and I would definitely recommend him again. Our dance floor was NEVER empty. I stressed the importance of a large dance floor to my hall and they set up the biggest one they could and literally there was barely any room for my guests because Jacob had everyone always on the floor! -

I am so happy we chose dependable wedding djs for our wedding!! Jacob Lawhead did such an amazing job and kept the party going all night. I was a very indecisive bride, so the many emails that I sent to Jacob last minute, changing things, were answered right away. It really means a lot to be able to get in contact so easily with a vendor when you have a million other people to get a hold of during the wedding planning process. He was very helpful and very professional. My wedding night went so smoothly and I have to thank Jacob for that! Choose dependable wedding djs!!! -

Cannot recommend more highly! Johnny is the best!
Absolutely one of my best vendors! First they are very affordable! And you might be worried, "you get what you pay for" but this is definitely not the case with Dependable Wedding DJs! They were a great price and provided amazing service both leading up to and on our wedding day. I cannot recommend Johnny enough. He was so fun to work with from our first meeting and made our reception an absolute blast. The dance floor was full all night! -

100% pleased with our DJ, Jacob, at our wedding. He was absolutely perfect, and was great in the time leading up to the wedding as well. He made time to meet with us and really took our suggestions/requests seriously. He also gave us advice when we asked him for it - clearly he's been to a wedding or two! We also had a Photo Booth through them as well, and our wedding guests had a blast! We have a great coffee table book now, with a ton of ridiculous pictures in it. Overall - I would HIGHLY recommend Dependable Wedding DJs! -

We just got married 2 weeks ago and I am still getting compliments on Johnny!! He truly was an amazing DJ. As soon as the dance floor was open to everyone for dancing, we had a huge group of people dancing all night until the last song! It was an amazing night! If you need a DJ Johnny is amazing! He answered any questions I had we did a final run through of the night right before the wedding. He has an easy to use online form to fill out for songs. And it's reasonably priced. Not only did we like him, but so did our guests! Great DJ! -

I was probably the most nervous about selecting a DJ for our wedding because a DJ can make or break the whole experience! However, from the moment we met Jacob from Dependable DJs, our worries were at ease. He was patient, kind, and listened exactly to what we wanted. He was willing to go above and beyond to see our wedding venue, download music selections that we wanted, and meet to go over our exact ceremony and reception plan. He was extremely prompt over email as well and answered all of our questions! Our reception was a blast - we preferred a DJ who would play the music we requested and make a few shoutouts to the crowd. Jacob did exactly that and was not overly aggressive with the microphone or crowd! Also, when shopping around, I felt that this price was very reasonable comparatively. If you are looking for a relaxed, laid back, DJ who will listen to your requests, it is without a doubt that I would give my highest recommendation for Jacob and Dependable DJs! -

I decided to trust in this company for my not only the music for my ceremony and reception, but for my photo booth as well. I was very happy with the outcome and the photo booth was a hit! Jacob was not only professional, but personal as well which made me feel comfortable right away. I did not have the most "traditional" wedding, but he managed to mold all of my selections in for the night without a second thought. The whole process was simple but any questions I had were responded to quickly. I would definitely recommend this company to anybody I know :) ! -

DJ Johnny was excellent. On point with everything & even went above & beyond to make the event special. He helped with a picture slideshow I was trying to put together but had issues at the last minute. Johnny helped me load the pictures & turned it into a beautiful slideshow & even had a good song picked out to listen to during the slideshow.
If I'm ever in need of a DJ .... DJ Johnny will be the only DJ I will aim to book.
Thanks again Johnny! -

Johnny was fantastic! We gave him the basic idea of what we wanted and he played a ffantastic party! There were always people on the dance floor, and if I wanted something played he did it right away. He was great with all the announcments and activities and so flexible to our needs. Everyone had a blast with the photobooth as well! -

Amazing DJ
I had guest that didn’t want to get off the dance floor all night. Very on top of our details and plays great music. He was able to read a room to play music that people enjoyed and made sure to play all the songs we requested. -

Oh what can I say about this company (Jacob) that isn't amazing! He did music for the ceremony and reception, had a photo montage, dance floor lighting, and our up-lights. Working with him was so much fun and he fulfilled every request that we had. I would recommend him to everyone I know! -
