Best dj ever!

I just wanted to reach out and say that I have had SEVERAL people reach out and ask about our DJ. Also, throughout the night, I couldn’t keep track of the compliments. Chad went above and beyond for us and I cannot thank him enough!!!! Of all the weddings that I have been to this year, I have NEVER seen a dance floor so packed. There were moments that we had no room 🤣 I give ALLLLLLL the credit to Chad and you all at DJ-Chicago!!!! Thank you so much for everything!! We will be hyping you up to everyone we know!!!

Beyond Expectations

Nick at DJ Chicago truly made our wedding reception exceptional - no exaggeration. We were actually blown away by his ability to read the room and keep the energy high and positive from beginning to end. We received endless compliments from our wedding guests on the DJ's incredible song choices and ability to bring the party to life. He was kind, organized, responsive, and accommodating leading up to the wedding as well. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ.

Perfect - no notes

DJ Chicago killed it, our music and dance floor was one of the top things our guests have raved about since our wedding.

Nick was awesome, and helped match us with Chad. We had a call with them where we outlined some of the big picture cues that were needed, and must-play/do-not-play lists. We shared our vision and they crushed it. We had more than one person tell us that they had a hard time figuring out when to use the restroom, as they didn't want to miss out a on a single song!

We would recommend to anyone getting married (or honestly, just looking to have an event with a great dance floor) in Chicagoland!

Highly reccomend!

Highly recommend booking DJ Chicago for your wedding or event. We hired DJ Chicago for our may 2025 wedding and it was truly one of the highlights of our night. Music was the most important aspect of the wedding for us and Nick from DJ Chicago did not disappoint.

My fiance and I like pop/edm music, not traditional wedding music so finding the right dj was extremely important. From the start of working together, I could tell Nick understood the vision. The night of the wedding, he executed our suggested songs flawlessly and made sure to perfect details such as how to pronounce our last name, what everyone’s nicknames were, etc. these little details are extremely important in giving our wedding a personal touch.

We also hired a saxophone (John from Cagen music) to play with the dj and Nick worked seamlessly with him. The dance floor was packed all night and our guests are still talking about it.

Finally, Nick was patient and accommodating as we made last minute changes the week of and even day of the wedding.

Overall cannot recommend Nick from dj Chicago enough!

Can’t recommend enough!

Nick and his team were amazing! I wanted a DJ who could keep the party going and read the room without me having to pick every song I wanted. Nick delivered that and so much more! He was so communicative leading up to our wedding and was so helpful the day of. He made sure we knew what was going on, who had the mic, and made sure we liked the vibes of the music. He let my husband and I request songs if we wanted to but I didn’t even need to because I feel like he knew exactly what to play and our guests had the best time! We are so appreciative to Nick and his team for making our wedding what it was!

DJ-Chicago made our wedding so much fun!

We had a NYE wedding and brought DJ-Chicago (Chad) to Indianapolis (we paid a travel fee). I cannot recommend this company enough. We heard from many guests that ours was one of the most fun weddings they have attended, and that was definitely thanks to Chad. People of all ages were on the dance floor until the venue closed at 1 am!

Book DJ Chicago!!

Gil from DJ Chicago DJ'd our wedding last Saturday and he was such a blast to work with. We had an introductory call with Nick and Gil and went over our "must have" songs and "Do Not Play" list. We had a great variety of music due to different age/ethnic demographics at our wedding. Gil was fabulous at reading the room and the dance floor was packed ALL night.

Best Dance Floor!

Nick with DJ Chicago was AMAZING to work with! He was so responsive and super helpful in the planning process. At the wedding he checked in with us to make sure everything was smooth and everything went off without a hitch. Our dance floor was INCREDIBLE. Several guests said it was one of the best dance floors they'd seen and it was banger after banger. We had such a blast and Nick with DJ Chicago was a huge part of our perfect day!

Amazing!

There is a reason that DJ-Chicago has 5 stars... they were truly amazing. We worked with Nick for our wedding and he had our dance floor full for the entire night. Not only that, we had a lot of hard-to-pronounce names in our party and he crushed the pronunciation of everyone. Further, he was entirely respectful and extremely entertaining throughout the night. If you are looking for a DJ that will respect your song wish list but can also successfully read a room, look no further. 10/10 recommend this company for any and all of your future events.

If you want your friends to keep telling you how great the music at your wedding was, book Gill + DJ Chicago!

Having been a guest at a good number of weddings, we know how critical the DJ can be in making or breaking a wedding reception for the guests - and Gil made our wedding reception absolutely incredible. Our dance floor was packed the entire night and we have gotten so many compliments from friends and family on how great the music was.

We met with General Manager Nick prior to booking and he was knowledgeable and confident that DJ-Chicago would be a good fit for us. Shortly before our wedding we met with Nick and DJ Gil and we got good vibes from him right away. He carefully listened to our preferences and picked up on the pop-punk thread that we were going for. He was professional throughout the entire process and kept meticulous notes. We had several songs chosen for processional/recessional/introductions etc. and he pulled everything off flawlessly. We especially appreciated him taking care to follow the very specific instructions we gave him for our first dance, he did, and our first dance was perfect. At one point he suggested that we change the song we picked to open the dance floor and we trusted him, which was the right choice as he got almost everyone dancing right away.

His ability to read the room was second to none as he kept the dance floor full literally until our time ran out at the venue. You are in good hands with Gil and DJ Chicago! We will never forget the amazing time we had, and we have Gil to thank for creating that atmosphere.

Tied for my favorite vendor!

DJ-Chicago tied for our favorite vendor for our October 2022 wedding! Everything from our first inquiry to the end of the wedding was top-notch service. Personally, I didn't see a reason to spend more on a $$$ or $$$$ DJ, this was a category I wanted to stay affordable on. I'm so happy we chose DJ-Chicago (wedding websites labeled as $$) which was amazing quality for the very reasonable price! Cannot recommend these guys enough! Owner Nick was so professional and organized, very flexible even the 1-2 weeks before our wedding when speeches were still very up in the air! DJ on the day of our wedding was Chad who we truly LOVED both as a person and as a DJ, he couldn't be a nicer guy and perfectly mixed our song requests with his choices that kept the party going! Highly recommend hiring DJ-Chicago, you won't regret it!!

Best DJ Out There!!

Hiring DJ-Chicago for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made regarding our wedding! Nick was so friendly and easy going from the initial phone call to the day of the event. He was our DJ for the night and didn’t complain once about our long list of song requests. :) He did such an awesome job mixing our requests in with his own song suggestions to the point where our dance floor was packed until the very last song! He was a pleasure to work with and we cannot recommend him & DJ Chicago enough!

Best DJ for a packed dance floor!

My husband and I hired Nick from DJ Chicago for our December wedding and we couldn’t be happier with this choice! Nick nailed every aspect of being a DJ: he was a great MC and kept things moving, he did a great job at drawing in people of all ages to the dance floor, and he knew when the crowd was loving a song versus when to fade it early. Music was one of the most important aspects of our wedding day, and we had songs that we absolutely had to hear, songs we would like to hear, and songs we did not want to play at all. Nick did a great job respecting these choices while weaving in songs we hadn’t considered, all of which were a huge hit! Our family and friends are still raving to us about how they’ve never seen a dance floor so packed from start to finish. We can’t recommend DJ Chicago enough!

Best DJ you can book

We got married in October 2022. Working with Nick was an absolute breeze. We had a brief Zoom meeting a month before the wedding where we shared our must plays, do-not-plays, and shared a Spotify playlist of a few songs we liked as suggestions and he was super receptive. He has a clear outline of what songs are needed besides the obvious ones like first dance (ex. Processional song, recessional song, entrance to reception song etc.) and has some great suggestions for songs if we didn’t have one that came to mind.

Day-of, Nick was incredibly professional and kind and did an excellent job with the songs, announcements, and transitions. Everyone was out dancing the whole reception and he nailed all of the names with pronunciation. 10/10 would highly recommend booking with DJ-Chicago and specifically Nick!

Best DJ for a memorable wedding

Good music was a top priority in wedding planning for us, and DJ Chicago knocked it out of the park. Our venue and planner told us to book Nick & his crew and said they were the best in Chicago. I'm so glad they were available! The entire process leading up to the wedding was smooth and easy. My now husband had for years been compiling a playlist for cocktail hour / dancing, and Nick & Jordan (who DJ'ed our wedding) were enthusiastic to put together playlists that fit our tastes and vibe. Jordan also read the energy and crowd well and added in some songs of his choosing that worked perfectly. Many friends told us our wedding had the best playlist and fullest dance floor they'd ever seen. Thank you Jordan & Nick for making our day so special!

Highly Recommend!

Talk about the best music ever!! Our wedding was on 9/23/22 and Nick was our DJ. From the first inquiry to the end of the wedding night, Nick was great at communication and so kind. From the ceremony, to cocktail hour, to reception introductions, to dinner classics, to first dances, to partying until the end of the night… WOW he killed it! Everything was so smooth and we received so many compliments after the wedding. The dance floor was packed the entire night. We highly recommend Nick! He is great at what he does and very professional. Thank you again, Nick!!

Kept the Night and Dance Floor Going Strong

From the start, working with DJ-Chicago was as easy as could be. Everyone was responsive, kind, and clearly excited to be a part of our wedding team. We were so impressed with how naturally our DJ, Gil, worked with the Club's staff to manage the night, and his talent for keeping the dance floor partying goes without saying - we literally danced the entire night! One highlight of how great he made the event: we were completely surprised to see he had coordinated lights to match the mix our cousins put together for their dance, which set the excited tone for the rest of the reception. He also did a great job of balancing song requests while staying true to the atmosphere we wanted for the night. Our friends and family keep telling us that it was the most fun they have had in a long time. Thank you Gil and DJ-Chicago for keeping the process easy, fun, and true to our dream night!

Excellent DJ - easy to work with, created a great atmosphere

We hired DJ-Chicago for our wedding and they did a perfect job. Nick walked us through all the organizational questions and helped us set a schedule and playlist/style for the music. The DJ for the event, Jason, was prompt and created a fun atmosphere for the entire evening, adjusting when necessary to keep everyone entertained. Overall, our interactions with DJ-Chicago were universally positive and we highly recommend them!

Hire them!

The DJ-Chicago team was great from day one helping us plan and prepare for our wedding.

Our DJ, John, was awesome! He was very kind and communicative, making sure that our ceremony and reception went just as we had planned. The dance floor was full all night and he did a great job with the playlist. Wouldn’t change a thing.

A perfect choice to keep the dance floor rocking

DJ Nick was awesome!! We met with Nick a month or so before our wedding to talk about the day and he was very kind and thorough. On my wedding day he would come and check in on us every so often and let us know what was coming next in the schedule. When we met with Nick a month before the wedding, we didn't give him a ton of direction on what music to play. Nick was able to curate a playlist that was so perfect that our guests asked if my wife and I had specifically given him a list of songs to play.

Nick kept the dance floor going all night and a few of my relatives shirts were completely soaked from dancing from the first dance to the last song. DJ Nick is a perfect choice for your wedding, I cannot recommend him enough

Book this dj!

Stop what you're doing and book DJ-Chicago! Our wedding was a month ago and people are still talking about the music and dancing. Nick had everyone on the dance floor from the time it opened to the time the venue closed. Nick is an incredible DJ and also did an amazing job working with my planner to manage the flow of the night. This was the best decision we made. Do yourself a favor and book ASAP!

Amazing DJ!

100% recommend DJ Chicago, specifically Chad, for your wedding or event!! We had such an amazing experience working with DJ Chicago for our wedding. Our dance floor was full the entire night thanks to Chad’s amazing song selection and song transitions; every song was a hit! We were a little behind schedule (because of transportation) and Chad not only made sure we could still fit on our private first dance, which was a true highlight of our night, but also casually and professionally checked in with us to get us back on track with our timeline with speeches / first dances. In addition, the whole planning process was so organized from day 1 – DJ Chicago knows what they are doing and are true professionals! Also, even though they are organized and know what they are doing, they also were creative and helped us to a ‘reverse anniversary dance’ to get our guests out on the dance floor which was a huge hit!

Best DJ, guests loved him

Nick, our DJ was fantastic. We had a zoom meeting 2 weeks before the event where we went over the ceremony and things to be expected. He was able to accommodate all of our requests, evens with some out of the box ones. Day of, Nick was on time, prepared and ready to go. He kept us informed and up to date throughout the entire event. His playlist from dinner through the last song was on point and kept the dance floor full the entire night.

DJ Chicago is the Best!

Cannot recommend DJ Chicago enough! Nick was our DJ and absolutely killed it the entire night. Our dance floor never stopped and our guests continually raved about the mix of classic and modern bangers he played all night long. He also continually checked in with my wife and I regarding name pronunciations, music requests, and more. If you're looking for a professional, affordable, and outstanding DJ, look no further!

DJ Chicago was great to work with for our wedding. We had Gil as our DJ and he was fantastic. He was very professional and friendly and kept us dancing the whole night. We got a lot of comments that the DJ was amazing. Nick, the General Manager, was also great to work with. He was organized and great with communication. We were so happy we had DJ Chicago at our wedding.

Use DJ-Chicago! We're sure glad we did!

Nick from DJ Chicago was the DJ for our costumed Halloween wedding, and I seriously cannot speak highly enough of him. Our dance floor was as active for the entire night as I've seen at any wedding, and Nick was also very on the ball in regards to making sure the scheduled dances happened according to plan.

A few weeks prior to the ceremony we had a zoom meeting where we told him what we were looking for, and no request was too specific or too vague for him; it was clear he'd be cool to do the entire thing on a playlist or to pick all the songs himself, and I really appreciated that. We ended up doing a split of the two, and all the songs that Nick picked fit in perfectly with the event, our selected songs, and our musical tastes. He also had no issue finding and playing a lot of obscure music that we requested, which I also appreciated.

It's also worth noting that because of Covid we had to postpone the reception an entire year, and DJ-Chicago was totally cool about that and very responsive throughout.

The best wedding dj

DJ Chicago is truly the best and only DJ you need for your wedding! We learned about DJ Chicago when attending my friends wedding and having an amazing time dancing. I knew I wanted to consider them for our wedding as well. I am so glad we discovered them. Nick, the owner, was so easy to work with and the prices were very reasonable. Our DJ was John and he did an amazing job! All our favorite songs were played and people were dancing the entire night! Our guests had so much fun. Dancing at my wedding has been something I have been dreaming of for years and the music lived up to my dreams. I am so grateful to have found such a wonderful company and to have had John as our DJ. It was an epic dance party!

Amazing Party!

DJ Chicago made our wedding a true party in every sense of the word. Nick was very helpful and responsive with any questions we had at the beginning. Chad was our DJ on the actual wedding day. He nailed down exactly what we wanted to hear-- from the must-play songs to the songs we knew everybody would dance to. I think at one point we had every single wedding guest on the dance floor. I have never been to a wedding where that many wedding guests actually danced, but DJ Chicago made it happen. Also we had told Chad "no country" and when someone requested "Man I Feel Like a Woman", he found me and asked if that was OK! OK, Shania gets a pass! Only negative was the music was a little low for the cocktail hour-- but I think it was an acoustics problem in the venue we chose. Anyway, Chad and DJ Chicago rock and will make your wedding amazing, trust me!

Newberry Library/Washington Square Park Wedding

DJ Chicago did our wedding at the Newberry Library. Jared was an excellent DJ who read the room perfectly and played a great mix that got everybody up and on the dance floor. All of our guests raved about him after the fact. The lighting and sound system they provided for our ceremony in Washington Square Park as well as throughout the Newberry Library was excellent. We would highly recommend Jared at DJ Chicago to anyone looking for a professional and talented DJ.

Hire this company for your wedding

Wish we could give DJ Chicago and their team more than 5 stars! We got married on June 12, 2021 and used DJ Chicago for our music at both the ceremony, reception, AND afterparty. They made the whole planning process easy and smooth. Our DJ was Jordan - words cannot express how much we enjoyed having him at our wedding. He went above and beyond the whole time, music was amazing and the dance floor was packed throughout the night. We had an afterparty which Jordan worked as well, there was a piano and Jordan hoped right on singing and playing. Our guests LOVED it and have been raving about him ever since. We highly recommend using DJ Chicago and their team for ALL events, we will be using them moving forward for any event we host. Thank you Jordan and DJ Chicago team.

We had Chris for our DJ and he was amazing to work with. We’ve had several guests tell us how great the music was and he did a great job with timing the ceremony music, introductions and taking requests. Nick was so easy to work with throughout the planning and overall great people to work with. I would highly recommend!!

Best dj seriously!

Nick was amazing! He was personable, patient, and organized! The second we met Nick we knew he was the one!

He was able to incorporate everything we asked for even Salsa and Reggaeton since I am half Colombian Spanish music was a priority that we needed played at the wedding.

My family and friends could not stop raving about how good our DJ was. They kept telling us Nick was the best DJ they ever had experienced at a wedding and I felt so grateful that we were lucky enough to find him and that he was also available for our date!

I had another friend comment and say "out of the all weddings I have been to I have never seen every single person on a dance floor like tonight!" He knew what the crowd wanted and knew what to play to keep everyone dancing!

If you are looking for a DJ Nick will not disappoint I assure you!

The best in the industry

We are so glad that we hired DJ Chicago for our wedding. They are just the best in the industry! From the planning process all the way to our wedding day, DJ Nick was just simply amazing!
Music for our ceremony and reception is so important for us and we are very pleased with how everything turned out. It was all we had ever imagined and so much more.

We highly recommend DJ Chicago! Thank you DJ Nick for being a part of our dream team. We are forever grateful for making our wedding day a very memorable one.

Music made the reception

Wow. Nick was incredible. He was so fun to work with throughout the process and made the reception unforgettable. I have never seen so much dancing at a wedding, and every song was a lead up to the next amazing song. The energy grew all night because of his mad skill. I want to have another event just so I can hire Nick to come DJ. I will be recommending him forever to anyone getting married in the area. The night flew by, and Nick perfectly coordinated everything. I'm still in awe of how perfect everything was and how wonderful Nick is. I have so many moments that I could write about that give me goosebumps because of the songs and energy he pumped into the reception. Thank you doesn't cover it, but it is a start. THANKS, NICK!

Musical Magic

Nick was the best DJ we could have asked for. We had a multicultural wedding and needed music from two very different backgrounds, and before we could even start explaining what we wanted, Nick pulled up his extensive Indian music playlists and sampled how he would blend them together. He was very willing to work with us, and even had us build a Spotify playlist so he knew what types of music we wanted on the dance floor. At no point in the night was there a lull; he knew exactly what song to play next to keep everyone engaged and dancing without burnout. He cued up our processional music perfectly and even pulled together traditional Indian ceremony songs to play during our ceremony at the perfect time. He was extremely professional and had everything set up on time, had backup plans ready to go, and ensured our dance floor was packed the entire night. Would highly, HIGHLY recommend him.

Nick is awesome

We worked with Nick as our DJ for our wedding and we could not have been happier. We first met him when he DJ'd for our friend's Indian/Italian wedding and we were so impressed with his ability to mix songs back and forth between modern Indian pop music and modern American pop. He was very attentive at our wedding, checking in with us a couple times before speeches to make sure we were ready and asking later in the evening if there were any songs we were still waiting/wanting to hear. He is very professional and easy to work with. I would hire Nick again for any DJ needs!

Great DJ! Best Dance Party!

Amazing! Truly have nothing bad to say. We had Nick (the General Manager) for our wedding on 11/2/19. He was so kind from start to finish of the process. He was willing to meet later at night to accommodate our schedules and was super thoughtful in conversations to figure out exactly what we wanted for the music at our wedding. He was also super responsive to emails throughout the process. On the night of - he was awesome. We wanted to include a bunch of different kinds of music for our two families and Nick played a perfect blend of music throughout the night. All of our guests loved him and the dance floor was completely packed for the entire night. We also had an issue with the venue’s microphone - they had not let Nick use his own equipment. Nick immediately came to us and apologized even though it was not his fault, and then replaced the mic with his own for the rest of the night. Nick/DJ Chicago is GREAT, highly recommend.

A professional and a hit with the guests

We loved working with Nick at DJ Chicago. He made sure the night was about the music, and what music we wanted to hear. Dancing at my wedding was something I was very excited for, and he made sure I heard all the songs I wanted, and more importantly, nothing we didn't want. He didn't make it about him (I've seen DJs shout out their name and company during weddings and it is GROSS to me) and all of our guests kept telling us about how great the DJ was! If you care about what music is played at your wedding, you need to go with DJ Chicago.

Best Dance Party Ever

Nick created one of the most fun dance parties I have been to, and it just so happened to be my wedding! From the first time we chatted with Nick on the phone, we knew he was a good fit for us. He was clearly very passionate about his favorite music but also didn't feel the need to force a specific style or genre. He has an encyclopedic knowledge of all music and how to build off of our ideas and the crowd to find songs that we didn't know we needed to hear. He knew exactly what to play and for how long to keep the energy going and get everyone involved. Nick also coordinated with all of our other vendors and kept the festivities running smoothly. Nick also was able to quickly recover when he overloaded the venue's power supply with too much bass (a great problem to have!) Nick will crank it to 11 when the situation calls for it and deliver a memorable evening for everyone in attendance. We couldn't recommend him highly enough for any event, but especially weddings.

Awesome DJ

We decided to have DJ-Nick from DJ-Chicago DJ our wedding after he played at a friend's wedding. As soon as that night was over we went over and got his business card, and contacted him soon after. Nick did a great job of talking to us about the types of music we did and did not want during our reception before the wedding date, and put us at ease that the dance floor would be packed all night. Nick did just as great of a job for us as he did at the wedding we saw him at and we have received many compliments about the music since the wedding. Nick also did a great job of making sure our toasts, first dance, and everything else throughout the night was done on time. We cannot recommend Nick enough.

Amazing! Seriously, book Nick and DJ Chicago!

DJ Chicago was one of the biggest reasons why our wedding was such a huge success! We first saw Nick DJ at a family member's wedding a few years ago and we immediately knew that we had to book him when the time came. We thought he did such a great job at keeping everyone on the dance floor and we loved his entire set list. From the very beginning Nick and Charlotte who helps with wedding coordination were a delight to work with, super nice, funny, and really responsive. Nick assisted us with everything that went into the reception including the intros, speeches, first dances and send-off. He was so flexible and offered us lots of his advice and tips throughout. He was so open and willing to do whatever to help give us what we envisioned, while letting us know what would work and what wouldn't. We also could tell from our initial meeting that he really understood how to coordinate and DJ a wedding, he talked about how he would transition from different eras and techniques he could use to read the room and determine what would hit and what wouldn't. He also talked about how there's certain parts in songs that people loved, and other parts not so much. You know you've been to a wedding before where the DJ just cannot seem to get out of a decade or plays a song way too long.

He totally knocked it out of the park! Our dance floor was packed from the very first to the very last song. We had the best man come up to us the next day and say "I really needed to go to the bathroom but then another banger would come on and I needed to stay out on the dance floor." We also had another guest ask us for his information for a future wedding. We received so many compliments how he absolutely crushed it! When he announced that the last song was coming on, there were boos from the audience! He did such a great job at tailoring the set list to us as well, integrating our likes/dislikes and small comments that we made to him during our meetings to really make it seem like it was for us. We were talking to our family member (the one that he DJd at before us) and we were talking about fun it was at both weddings and how great Nick was at both weddings, but how it felt really different. A DJ, I think can be one of the hardest vendors to book for a wedding. Do yourself a favor and book Nick and DJ Chicago, I have no reservation in recommending him to anyone and everyone!

Better than I could have hoped for.

We found DJ-Chicago through another couple whose wedding we'd had a blast at, and I could not be happier with the decision to go with them for our wedding at Carnivale in Chicago! From the initial meeting to the end of our wedding night, it was a seamless experience. After the initial meeting, they match you with a DJ based on your personal preferences. We were paired with John, who was absolutely fantastic to work with. He was professional, kept us on track in the most unobtrusive way possible, and most of all he was fun! The dance floor picked up steam all night and nobody wanted to leave after the last song. We couldn’t be happier and HIGHLY recommend John and DJ Chicago to anyone who’s looking. Compared to what I've seen in the Chicago market, their prices are also extremely reasonable. Win win all around!

Fantastic DJ experience who kept the dance floor HOPPING!

Nick from DJ Chicago honestly was an integral part of making our March 16, 2019 wedding unbelievable. He dealt with some last minute changes with grace and poise, and kept the party going the whole night!!! Our dance floor was truly so full that people were dancing on the carpet beside it, and I attribute it to Nick's keen ability to keep the party flowing through song selection. I am so happy that we had Nick with us on our wedding day, and would HIGHLY recommend to anyone in the Chicagoland area. Thanks so much for everything!

Your search for the perfect DJ is over!

We worked with Nick for our outdoor wedding reception. We had two consultations prior to our event, one to go over high-level details (equipment needed, type of venue, general playlist, etc.) and one closer to our event to lock in final details (wedding party introductions, toasts, first songs, etc). Nick walked us through the entire process and took care of ALL of the miscellaneous behind-the-scenes stuff with the venue.

On our wedding day, Nick was all setup and ready to go well in advance of the start of our reception. He executed everything to perfection and went above and beyond in helping to keep the reception going when our venue dropped the ball on a couple of things.

Nick did such a great job gauging the dance floor and keeping people engaged, it was jam packed the entire evening and every one of our guests was disappointed when our dance floor ended for the night. We provided a very basic guideline for the types of music we would like to be played and Nick created the perfect playlist that he wove seamlessly into our first dances and requests from our guests.

This short review does not do Nick and DJ-Chicago the justice they deserve, I would recommend them to anyone looking for a DJ for their next event!

Best DJ In Chicago

Hands down, the best DJ company in Chicago! We got married in September this year at the Wyndham Downtown and Nick was our DJ. He was very responsive to our emails from beginning to end and was very patient as we changed our "must play" list and "father/daughter dance song" at least 10 times. During the wedding, he kept us informed of what was to happen next and where we should go. Most importantly, he absolutely nailed the music selection at our wedding. Many guests said that they have never danced so much in their lives. He knew how to read the dance floor. If a song was not being well-received, he would change it and kept the crowd dancing. He played all of our "must play" songs and timed everything perfectly. We also rented up-lights from them and the lighting turned out so well in our venue. Nick was such a pleasure to work with and we highly recommend him and his company for any wedding or event.

Mark from DJ-Chicago was the most valuable member our wedding team. He did everything, including providing high-quality music for the ceremony (it actually sounded like a string quartet in the background!), having microphones for us, our officiant, and for all the speeches; making a fun playlist of music to set the mood for cocktail hour, and most importantly having the GREATEST lineup of music for the reception. Both sides of our families and most of our friends are introverts that don’t dance, but somehow Mark kept the dancefloor PACKED all night long. He incorporates both songs that we like as well as songs that he thought would keep people on their feet. There was not a single moment or single song where people seemed to lose interest in the party. He made planning both efficient and high-yield. When we were deciding on music for our ceremony, he had several versions of each song which let us find the perfect music. He also let us use their projector and screen so we could do a slideshow, which our guests raved about for days after the wedding. The final cost of everything was unbelievably affordable. We feel like we underpaid Mark for all his services. Do yourselves a favor and let DJ-Chicago make your wedding an experience that no one will forget.

Highly Recommend! Nick was so great in helping coordinate our DJ services for the wedding, especially since we were out of state and could not meet in person. John was our DJ for the night and he was awesome! He worked with all the vendors and venue coordinator to make sure everything was running smoothly. Before I walked down the aisle I happened to be in the same room where he was set up and he showed me what he had planned for our processional. He was great and very knowledgeable! He checked in with us at the end of the night to make sure there weren't any other songs we were missing. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ and a better company. All the staff we interacted with were awesome. Make DJ Chicago your DJ!!!

Dillon was extremely professional and had a great playlist. He discussed our likes and dislikes before and was able to create something that we both loved, even though my husband and I have different taste in music. He also made a list of people we did not want to hear which was a relief to me. He was able to "read the room" and put on something perfect for the moment. We had a lot of compliments from many guests!

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ company for our wedding. The dance floor was always packed and everyone was dancing! Everything went off without a hitch thanks to our DJ Mark. He was enthusiastic, helpful, and kept our partying going all day. Booking Mark was one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planning process. The compliments keep flowing about how great our music and dance floor was! We will cherish these memories forever. Do yourself a favor and book DJ Chicago for your next event and have the best night of your life.

DJ Chicago was amazing! Chris did an amazing job of reading the crowd and helped us throw a great party! My only request was that he keep the dance floor full all night long and he more than delivered. Our reception was still going when the lights came on at the end of the night. He played a variety of styles of music which satisfied every taste. He also made a point to find me toward the end of the reception to ask if there were any songs that I specifically wanted to hear that he had not played yet. We were referred to DJ Chicago by my husband's cousin and were very happy with our decision to use them. We highly recommend DJ Chicago for future weddings!

We can't even begin to express how happy we were with our overall experience with DJ-Chicago, specifically Mark. Very personal, accountable, and organized. We gave a list of songs (must plays as well as songs that we like for him to work with)---he managed to get through all of them plus so many more between ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. He managed to blend from country to 2K hip hop back to Wilson Philips---well done, Mark! The dance floor was full all night!

DJ Mark made our wedding day work out perfectly! He was extremely organized and friendly from the moment we sat down with him to talk about our big day. He had great suggestions to help us get in everything we wanted to. He was flexible and helped us create our perfect plan for the day! On our wedding day he was informative and kept the day running smoothly. He did a great job ensuring that all our guests could hear during the ceremony and reception. He created the perfect mix of music that had every person at our wedding on the dance floor! We appreciate all of his hard work and would highly recommend him to others to be apart of your wedding day or event.

We hired DJ-Chicago for our wedding this July, and we couldn't be happier with our decision. Gil did an absolutely fantastic job, and we received so many compliments about the music and overall flow of the event. Gil was extremely professional, and took the time to be sure that he correctly pronounced the names of all of our family members and bridal party during introductions. He was great about helping to keep us on schedule but did so in a way that we never felt rushed. The dance floor was packed the entire night and he did such a great job incorporating our preferred songs with those that the crowd was enjoying. We would definitely hire Gil again and highly recommend him for weddings.

We had Dylan for our wedding and it was a great experience working wth him! He had knowledge of a broad range of genres and was able to incorporate a wide range of music superbly. Everyone enjoyed the music and dancing, especially us! He was always very professional and was able to adjust the timelines when we had to make some last minute switches. Super easy to communicate with. We would highly recommend the company as a whole as they were great when we first communicated over the phone- very real and professional. And of course we highly recommend Dylan!

We cannot say enough good things about Mark & DJ Chicago!! Our wedding was a month ago, and people are still reaching out telling us how amazing our music & dance floor was. Mark was so easy to work with leading up to the wedding - even when we made last minute changes! He coordinated the reception perfectly -- even when we asked him to announce 3 different HUGE group pictures. There was never a quiet moment between songs, and the dance floor was SO packed the entire night. We said all along that we just wanted people to have FUN at our wedding... And Mark totally made that happen. He picked the best music, played certain songs at the best time, and totally just understood us a a couple and portrayed that across in the song choices. Thanks for being such an important part of our day and making it amazing!!

Dylan was the absolute perfect DJ for our wedding! We were impressed with him since the first time we met as he genuinely wanted to be a part of our wedding. He was extremely professional and asked for our input so that our evening would be one to remember. As the time winded down on our wedding my husband and I wished we had even more time to dance the night away! We will continue to recommend DJ Chicago to our friends as they are starting to explore the wedding process. We will also continue to recommend Dylan. It was an honor to work with DJ Chicago and we cannot thank you enough for making our wedding night the best night of our lives!

You know it's a good party when the groom splits his pants from dancing so hard! We used DJ Chicago for our wedding on 10/15/16 and couldn't be happier - Mark is the best. He is professional and experienced, and not only did he ensure that everything ran smoothly, he made our wedding an absolutely outstanding party for us and all of our guests. From the cocktail hour until the very last song, Mark was excellent at playing exactly the right songs at the right time. The dance floor was FULL the entire night. He played all of our "must play" songs, and selected a variety of songs we didn't expect to hear but absolutely loved, based on our conversations with him before the wedding. So, so many of our friends and family commented on what an awesome DJ we'd found. We are so happy and grateful.

I would recommend DJ Chicago and Mark to everyone I know. If you're considering using DJ Chicago for your wedding, look no further. They are absolutely excellent, and - bonus - they're a great value too! Thank you DJ Chicago!

We worked with DJ Chicago owner Mark through the planning process and our DJ was Gil. Mark was great through the planning process, asking about what we wanted and listening carefully to our musical taste. We were pleased that he got excited about some of the songs on our final lists. At the wedding itself, Gil was WONDERFUL! He was very professional, obviously very good at his job and concerned about providing a high level of service. We really, really appreciated that he came to find us before he played the last dance, because dancing to that final song was one of the best moments of the whole night. He worked seamlessly with the house-mandated sound system and with our musician, who had to cut in to use the mic for the first dance. Everything went smoothly. He was a great sport and it was great to see his big smile all night. We would definitely recommend DJ Chicago and Gil.

A friend of mine recommended Mark from DJ Chicago and it was an awesome suggestion. The dance floor was filled til the very end of the night when we had to eventually kick people out. I was pretty vague in my suggestions of a music list and he did a great job selecting songs, a good mix of old and new. He even was flexible with some rather odd requests by my husband (the Imperial March may have made an appearance). You can't go wrong with Mark!

We could not have made a better decision that DJ-Chicago. From our initial meeting all the way up until the last guest left, Mark (the owner) and John (our DJ) were a breeze to work with and helped us plan and put on a really fun show! Some highlights included:

-In our initial meeting, Mark asked us if we'd thought about cocktail-hour music. We'd been so focused on reception/dancing that we hadn't given it much thought, but since our wedding was half-American, half-Brazilian, Mark suggested some bossa nova. It worked really well, and gave cocktails a fun, relaxed vibe before the reception started.

-When we arrived at the venue about half an hour before the ceremony started, John spotted us gave us an enthusiastic high five as soon as we saw him (we probably looked somewhat terrified), and that was exactly what we needed in that moment-- it was really encouraging and calming. My wife actually gave him a hug!

-John checked in with us repeatedly over the course of the night on what was coming up next in the timeline--we hadn't known he was going to do that, but it was really really helpful. I also believe (although I could be wrong, because the timing became a little bit of a blur) that he managed to get some things started ahead of time. When he saw an opening, he would check in with us on who the next toast-givers were, go find them to check in with them, and then go announce the toasts, even if it was a bit early, to allow for more dancing later

-The music choices themselves were perfect--everyone was dancing right up until the last song. As indie rock lovers, we thought it was great that he was able to sneak in a little Modest Mouse during dancing. It went over really well! He also managed to find pop songs that both the American and Brazilian guests could enjoy equally. My wife's 80 year-old, non-English-speaking grandmother told us in Portuguese that "all her jams were playing."

For all those reasons and more, thanks to Mark and John from DJ-Chicag

We cannot say enough good things about DJ Chicago! My husband and I just started looking for DJs, one of our friends had just gotten back from a wedding and could not stop talking about the music---DJ Chicago! After reading reviews, looking a their website (which is very user-friendly, has their music database uploaded, and walks you through their process), and inquiring with Mark, we knew that we wanted to book DJ Chicago. They have great customer service all-around. If you e-mail a question, you will have a response in less than a day.

Within a few weeks of your wedding, they will set up a meeting with you where you discuss the details together with the manager (Dylan) and your DJ (John). You can have it as custom as you want! My husband and I love music and had specific requests that were not in the database, during the meeting we would find the version we liked and they would download the song(s)! Also, they would make sure that they knew the order and pronunciation of everyone's names.

The day of the wedding, John (our DJ) was on time, set-up, and dressed professionally before we even arrived to the venue. He made the night flow so seamlessly! Everyone could not stop complementing on the music and DJ! The dance floor was packed all night--even our venue coordinator who has been in the business for over 40 years pulled us aside and said that she has NEVER seen the dance floor that packed for the ENTIRE night! We cannot thank John and DJ Chicago enough for making our wedding night amazing!

We reached out to Mark only after extensive research. By far, Mark had the best reviews in the Chicago area and couples consistently stated that he was easy to work with and knew exactly what type of music to play based on what was happening. We were very thankful to have Mark play at our reception. About 1 month before the wedding, Mark reached out to us to set up a meeting. I sent Mark the day of schedule before the meeting and I knew from our conversation that he reviewed it carefully before the meeting because he had follow up questions for each important segment. I appreciated Mark’s sensitivity to the music that should be played during our traditional tea ceremony at the reception. He actually sent me a list of instrumental songs to choose from after the meeting. I had a chinese song for my father-daughter dance that was available only on youtube. Mark helped me download it as an mp3 and sent it to me for review. I was working when we met with Mark telephonically so could not write down meeting notes. Mark sent me a pdf of all his notes for review and sent me reminders of what I needed to get back to him on.

During the reception, Mark was extremely professional. He was dressed in a suit. He coordinated with my photographers and videographer to keep us on track throughout the night. He would tell us, “this thing is next but you have some time so no rush.” He never rushed us, gave suggestions as needed, asked for permission to play the r-rated songs after most of the children and older folks left, and made us feel very relaxed. We received so many compliments on the music throughout the night and afterwards. The music was on point. I told Mark we hated the cheesy music that is overplayed at every wedding. He came up with a brilliant solution - to play the oldies. Our guests, young and old, all jumped out of their seats to get on the dance floor. It was awesome. We had so much fun the whole night because Mark really kept the party going. Thank you so much!

So I originally booked DJ Chicago based off one review I read where someone claimed they danced so hard at their wedding the groom ripped his shirt in half. Let me tell you, we danced so hard my father came very close to ripping his shirt! Our dance floor was PACKED the whole night. I literally didn't even use the bathroom all night because every time I tried to go, another amazing song came on. It was nonstop. Mark read the crowd and provided the most excellent performance. He wasnt one of those DJs who liked hearing his voice the whole night either.. He was just wonderful. Please don't look anywhere else, book DJ Chicago. Thank you, Mark!

DJ-Chicago, Mark (the owner), and Mark (the DJ) were all wonderful to work with for our wedding this past summer. As soon as we met with Mark, the owner; we knew that he was the top contender. My husband and I met with a lot of wedding DJs and they were all corny! When mark did not roll out a contrite video of people dancing to "Thriller" at a wedding, we already knew he was at the top of the list. Then, when he sent us to hear Mark (the DJ) at 3 dots and dash, we were sold. I'm Jamaican and my husband is a Southerner and I was concerned that no one was going to be able to make the music styles mesh. DJ Mark was a master mixer. He had the whole crowd on the dance floor all night long. My brother sweated through his shirt and split his pants the music was so good.

Mark was the DJ for our wedding on 10-10-15, and he was FANTASTIC! Right off the bat from the initial meeting, Mark was personable, friendly, and eager to get to know us. Throughout the process, he made sure he had everything correct and verified everything so that we were confident things would go just how we wanted. My husband and I had some unique additions to our reception that involved a LOT of logistics (i.e. placing a speaker outside, moving all 200 of our guests from the ballroom to the veranda for a firework show, which he also had to play the music for, and getting the guests back in the ballroom afterwards) That was no easy task, and Mark executed it flawlessly. On top of all of that, the dance floor was PACKED and I mean PACKED all night. I can't even tell you how many times people came up to us to tell us how great of a party it was and how awesome the music was. We would hire him again in a heartbeat! Mark was amazing!! THANK YOU!

Our DJ, Nick, was a HUGE hit at our wedding, we still have people telling us they miss it because the DJ was so awesome. Although we had some timing issues, Nick was spot on with the music we like while maintaining the dance floor full at all times. We could not have asked for a better DJ, he was so attentive and funny and our guests can't stop raving about him. THANK YOU!!!

I could go on and on about how fantastic Mark is. From our very first phone call, I knew he would be awesome to work with. I very much stressed to him how important it was to me for our reception to be a dance party. He made it happen! I can't tell you how many guests came up to me to tell me what a great DJ he was. From the ceremony, to cocktail hour, to dinner, to the reception, the music selections were flawless. I had given him some guidance on the vibe we wanted and the type of music we wanted to hear, and he totally ran with it. He helped us to create our timelines prior to the big day, and everything went off without a hitch!

Again, I would recommend him a million times over. Just a top notch guy who really wants to make your day special.

Thanks Mark!!!

We hired DJ- Chicago for our wedding on 9/19/15. After meeting with Mark the owner- I felt confidant that he would be great to DJ our wedding. We met with Mark again a week before the wedding- and he was SOO helpful in helping give us music suggestions and song choices as my fiance and I weren't very particular.

I only gave Mark one piece of guidance - and that was to keep the party dancing all night and that he did! He read the crowd, and kept all my guests dancing the entire night. I had so many people come up to me and say he was one of the best DJ's they've seen. He played a great mix of old & new - but not the lame old traditional wedding songs- he played some 90s hip hop that our whole group loved. He gave us great suggestions for our entrance song, pie cutting song, etc. after we told him the vibe we were going for that night. With his guidance we also ended the night with Bohemian Rhapsody - we had all of our guests screaming/singing along and it was hands down one of my highlights from the night!

Mark/DJ Chicago was extremely professional, reasonably priced and soo helpful. We would highly highly recommend anyone book Mark for their wedding!

When planning our wedding, my fiance and I agreed that the most important aspect to us was having a raging dance floor all night long. DJ Chicago MADE our wedding! Mark was our DJ and our contact person from start to finish. His work was FLAWLESS. While my new husband and I love to dance, we were pretty vague about what exactly we wanted to hear at our wedding. Mark made perfect suggestions every step of the way and accommodated every question and request we thought up.

Our initial meeting was smooth and the contract straightforward. The song list available on the DJ Chicago website was accessible and comprehensive. We got great ideas for songs and themes and in our final meeting it was clear that Mark had taken notes and made sure he understood what we wanted. I wanted specific versions of specific songs for our ceremony and Mark made it happen.

From the ceremony, to background music, to our reception entrance, all the music was on point. Mark checked on us periodically throughout the night, making sure we liked what we were hearing and giving suggestions based on his experience reading the room. When my bridesmaids asked to make a short, unscheduled speech, Mark made them check with me first. When dinner service was over a little early, Mark was ready to get the party started.

Within minutes of the dance floor opening, we had guests telling us they loved the music! Our dance floor was never empty. Every transition from one song to the next was seamless and made perfect sense. We heard everything from Queen and ABBA to oldies to 80s pop to 90s hip hop (all taken from our request list!) and nothing felt out of place. He even whipped out a random Rupaul song that my best friend decided she NEEDED to hear in the moment! In the days after the wedding, my family and friends have kept saying it was one of the best parties they've ever been to. THANK YOU DJ CHICAGO!

Outstanding! On so many levels. Mark (owner) and Chris (our DJ) helped make everything very special and awesome at our wedding. From pre-planning meetings, to their professionalism (while being very fun too), to the music at 3 sites (ceremony, cocktail, and reception) they nailed it all. Bottom line: I would recommend them to anyone, anytime. They also provided up-lighting for our reception, came early to set up everything up, and really really did an awesome job. This company is legit.

Everything was perfect, they are so responsive, accommodating, and easy to work with! I cannot recommend them highly enough!

We knew pretty quickly after meeting with Mark that we wanted to book DJ Chicago for our wedding. He was super laid back and extremely familiar with our venue. About a month before the wedding, we met with Mark to go over all the details as well as meet our actual DJ, Gil. Gil was fantastic! He kept the dance floor packed the entire night and we received a ton of compliments on how great our DJ was.

Our DJ, Mark, was outstanding! DJ-Chicago was recommended to us after several of our friends used them for their own weddings, and we couldn't have been happier! We decided to let Mark kind of do his own thing, instead of giving him every song to play, and we were so glad we did! Everyone was raving about how good the music was throughout the whole reception. The dance floor was never empty. Mark does an excellent job of reading people, and picked the right music every time! DJ-Chicago was also very reasonably priced as well. We will definitely be recommending DJ-Chicago to any one else we know getting married!

We had a great experience with Mark (owner) throughout the process. It was simple, smooth, and stress-free. Prices are reasonable and well worth it. Mark had great direction and recommendations. He was not available on our date, but he paired us up with a great DJ according to our music needs/wants.
We had the pleasure of having Gil as our DJ for our wedding back in March. He provided the music for ceremony, cocktails/dinner, and the reception. Gil was able to accommodate some last minute changes/requests without hesitation. Everyone loved the music, and the dance floor was packed until the very last second. We received so many compliments on Gil and the music from our family & friends. The DJ can make or break the party...Gil definitely rocked it!

I highly recommend DJ-Chicago!

We loved DJ-Chicago!! Mark, the owner of DJ-Chicago was by far the most organized and responsive of all of our vendors. Our DJ, Dylan, did a great job of combining two very different musical tastes for a very fun wedding reception. We would highly recommend DJ-Chicago for anyone seeking an organized, responsive, and talented DJ!

From start to finish, we absolutely loved working with DJ Chicago!

Firstly, the prices and responsiveness from this company beat its competitors without question. This company was extremely professional and timely in responding to any questions or concerns we had. When I was putting out price quote inquiries to other DJ companies in Chicago, I was bombarded by an exuberant price and pushy salespeople. That is the exact opposite of my experience with DJ Chicago. I never felt bombarded and was shocked/pleased at how reasonable the price was in comparison to other, less quality companies. My husband I went in to meet Mark at the Chicago office, and were matched with a DJ of our similar age and music taste. This was not something I had heard from our companies, which I feel sets DJ Chicago apart from the competitors.

I got TONS of compliments on the DJ during and after my wedding. We had Nick, who was an absolute delight. He was the perfect blend of informative in his announcements and fun, but also "on the sidelines" and out of the way, so to speak. All of my guests loved the blend of music Nick played, and his ability to read the crowd. Nick was a perfect match for us!

HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this company! We are so happy with our decision. Do not settle for a cookie cutter DJ that does not take your considerations into account. This company is honest, hardworking, and absolutely awesome! 5 stars all the way!

There's a simple reason everyone rates DJ Chicago five stars. Fair price for outstanding service. I spoke with at least two wedding vendors who had their own weddings done by DJ Chicago and that alone speaks volumes. If people in the industry are using it, you know the service is legit.

Like all things wedding-vendor, I expect you to compare DJs and meet with a few. Just make sure you include DJ Chicago. I'm confident that like us, you'll choose them over the other services.

Mark DJed my wedding this past Friday. They might as well have taken away the tables after dinner because once the music started, no one stopped dancing until they kicked us out. In DJ Chicago we trust. And so should you.

Mark at DJ-Chicago was a pleasure to work with from the very beginning. In our initial meetings, he was incredibly enthusiastic about the venue and our song selections. He offered great suggestions about what song choices work at weddings. He was incredibly professional in the planning stages and we felt very confident that he would be well prepared for the big day. Mark did an excellent job with the introductions, and again gave great advice as to when we should do speeches (we had everyone speak before dinner so that our speakers could relax while they eat). Once it was time to dance, Mark did an amazing job. The dance floor was rarely empty - if/when a song didn't work, he quickly transitioned to the next one. He took requests from guests, but was careful to honor our do-not-play list. His song choices were on point - we have had so many comments already from our guests about how much fun they had dancing. We had a blast dancing, and we would strongly recommend Mark and DJ Chicago to anyone getting married, or for any other event that needs a DJ.

We are so happy that we used DJ Chicago for our wedding.

My husband and I did not want a DJ that would dominate our reception with "cheesy" antics. Mark delivered. He was professional, kept everything on track, and most importantly played music that aligned with our tastes.

Our dance floor was packed all night, with the young and older guests alike.

Thank you!

If you're planning a wedding - hire DJ Chicago, it's a must! They are so good, they'll make the groom (that's me) split his tuxedo jacket in half from dancing so hard. Everyone will have an awesome time. Seriously. I literally split my tux jacket in half from dancing so hard. That's how good DJ Chicago is. That's how great of a time you will have. If you don't believe me, call up Modernly Formal Tuxedo and ask them about the split tux that came back.

Mark was GREAT to work with. He was receptive, offered good suggestions and did a really nice job following up with us if we went MIA for a few days (you know how wedding planning goes..) My wife and I met with him at his office twice ahead of the wedding - first to talk details, and secondly to review music options a few weeks prior to our wedding.

Nick DJ'd our wedding (at Artango) and he was AWESOME! So awesome. I highly recommend him. He knew just what to play during dinner to keep things classy, and what to play during the reception to keep the party going. Nick did and EXCELLENT job on announcements and introductions. He was genuinely interested in our wedding, our guests and in making sure we had a perfect evening.

Hire DJ Chicago, work with Mark and grab Nick to DJ your wedding - you will be glad you did!

Mark from DJ Chicago was incredible. Book him now!!

We have been to a lot of weddings over the past few years, and ours was the best dance floor of them all, by a long shot. The entire wedding was up on their feet - all ages - all night long. The dance floor was so packed, there were overflow groups among the tables. We'd never seen anything like it, and were absolutely over the moon.

In our pre-wedding session, Mark discussed our musical tastes and the artists that were special/meaningful to us - and it was amazing to hear him working in the songs/artists we discussed throughout the night, whether it was during dinner or on the dance floor. It truly felt like "our wedding."

We are still getting compliments on how amazing the music was, and it's already been a month! My mother's friends attested to the fact that they hadn't danced that much in 20 years, and our younger friends were practically crying with happiness by the end of the night. They had that great of a time.

So thank you DJ Chicago - you made our wedding better than we could have even imagined!

We were perhaps slightly biased because we knew Mark (the owner) in advance, but we had no direct experience at any of his events. My fiance set everything up, and while we were not able to get Mark that night, he promised us that we would not be disappointed. And boy, were we not! Chris was absolutely perfect - literally the best DJ I have ever seen at any wedding or other event. We met a little over a month before the wedding and threw a lot at Chris and Mark. My fiance and I like a variety of music styles, and Chris was able to get everything we wanted in during the evening at the perfect times. The dance floor was packed the entire evening with people ranging from 4 year olds to those in their 60s, many times with all on the floor at the same time. He found the perfect balance of oldies and current music, which was a concern to us given the age spread at the wedding. We would recommend Chris and DJ Chicago to anyone looking to plan an event where they want a fun, professional, affordable, detail oriented, personalized DJ.

They were awesome! My fiancé and I met with the owner, Mark and Gil (who DJ'd our wedding) and they were very kind and had helpful insights in the music world. They liked our song list choice and I was super excited that they were knowledgeable with my Salsa and Merengue options. Gil was great the day of the wedding with also being our M.C. My fiancé and I had a great time! We also had guests who said they loved the DJ and they too had a blast!

I cannot express how grateful my husband and I are to have had the opportunity to have DJ Chicago as our wedding DJ. John, our DJ for the night, was a pleasure to work with the evening of our wedding. He was kind, professional, helpful and made the night run smoothly from the introductions until the last song of the evening. Not only did he play great music, but he was the wedding corridinator for the evening. We decided to have some non-conventional dinner music played, which we provided a playlist and had John add additional songs as needed. Dj Chicago welcomed this list and did not make me feel like I was stepping on their toes as professionals. John rocked our dinner playlist songs and we received so many compliments on our choices. After dinner, he kept the dance floor packed-which was exactly what we wanted. I cannot rave enough about how easy it was working with both Mark and John and will highly recommend DJ Chicago to anyone looking for a DJ (and anyone that will listen :) ) I must say I am a very pleased bride with this vendor choice. HIRE DJ CHICAGO- YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED!

Chad at DJ Chicago provided the music for our ceremony and our wedding reception and did an excellent job. He expertly timed our requested music throughout the ceremony and kept the dance floor full throughout the reception. A good DJ is key to making sure a wedding is fun for everyone involved and Chad truly helped put our wedding in the fun category. We're still hearing from friends about how much fun they had at our wedding, especially on the dance floor.

I'll be honest, I booked DJ-Chicago because they were the least expensive. I could not honestly get my head around how expensive DJ's were and I figured the least expensive would be fine. But the thing that blew me away more than anything, was how fantastic they were. The DJ at our wedding was incredible! He read the room, took suggestions well, was nice and did exactly what we wanted. He played fantastic music all night and more than half of our guests commented on how great the music was. We had so many people dancing and having fun all the way to the end, and I know Chad had a lot to do with it.

DJ Mark of DJ- Chicago is amazing! I booked him a year ago for my old hollywood glam wedding. During the year we worked together, we had regular communication, which was important since I was planning this wedding from Portland, OR. I was beyond pleased when we were able to meet a few months before the event to hammer out some details. Mark is one of those DJ's that can get an impression of exactly what you want just by you naming a few songs that are important to you. I would say "what's that one song"... and he knew exactly what I was talking about.

The actual wedding was a smash hit, he had the crowd going and started off the reception with a bang. He also was able to wrangle my crazy wedding party during the lineup- he's a pro. I would definitely recommend Mark and his company for any event! Thanks Mark!

We hired DJ Chicago and their DJ Chris for our wedding. The music and dancing exceeded our expectations, and we would hire DJ Chicago and Chris again in a heart beat.
DJ Chicago was easy and fun to work with. We met with the owner and Chris a few weeks before the wedding, and they helped us modify our music selections which made for a better party. We picked a lot of great music but some of it wasn't great for dancing. We also neglected to pick music that would appeal to our parents and older family members. Making these changes really paid off because these were the most popular songs with all of our guests! At the wedding, Chris did an excellent job getting guests on the dance floor. We couldn't believe the number of people on the dance floor - everyone from kids to my friends to my parents and relatives. Chris kept people on the dance floor by playing song after song that resonated with our guests. Additionally, the mother of the groom was missing right before the mother-groom dance! Thank you Chris for keeping the party going (and us relaxed) through the dead time between the formal dances.

Can't remember if I filled this out - if not, I'm happy to do it again because I LOVED Mark at our wedding! Music is really important to me, and I really wanted someone special that would be able to give us the feeling of fun and love at our wedding and Mark did just that. He did an amazing job preparing us for the big day (plus I love his amazing office loft space). The day of he did all the announcements perfectly and the music was GREAT. At one point, Todd turned to me and said, "why do I love every song that is at this wedding?!" We had an amazing time and our family and friends agreed. Even when we were stuck with no sound equipment at our rehearsal dinner, Mark reached out to help us with anything we needed. Was so nice of him to go out of his way and just added to our love for his work. Thank you, thank you!! Will recommend you to absolutely everyone :)

Mark was the DJ for our Sept 19 wedding at Germania Place. We had a couple of meetings with him prior to the wedding, and he made us feel comfortable. He had great knowledge about the genres we liked, and was also so supportive of any special music requests that deviated from traditional wedding hits.

One of the main comments we've heard over and over from our guests is how great the DJ was! The DJ is SO important to any wedding, and we're just so glad that we chose Mark. He really did so much, as we didn't give him many titles to work with, mostly just vague directions.

The dance floor was packed all night (and our reception went until 1am), even to the very last song. There are event Facebook comments from guests that night raving about the DJ and dancing.

If you are planning a wedding or any other event - do yourself a favor, and talk to Mark!

Mark from DJ Chicago was AWESOME! He made our night. He is very well experienced and knew what to play when to keep our dance floor full the WHOLE night. He did a terrific job helping us plan songs for our ceremony, dances and our dance floor. He made sure the exact songs we requested were played. Also he did a fantastic job announcing our bridal party as they pronounce their names. We barely could leave the dance floor because the music was wonderful. We received compliments from wedding guests from several different generations stating how terrific the music was throughout our wedding day. We knew we wanted to use DJ Chicago for several years as 3 other friends had used him for their weddings (over the past 5 years) but it seems like every wedding he just gets better and better. We anticipate our friends will continue to book with DJ Chicago as the company is awesome and has always kept us on the dance floor!
