Amanda Sent on 05/15/2024Pete is the BEST!
We hired Pete to DJ our wedding at Starved Rock Lodge in May 2024. It was one of the best decisions we made with our wedding! We had met him at the Starved Rock vendor expo the year prior and had loved his energy and vibe from the moment we met him. He utilizes an app that makes it so easy to plan all the important parts of the day with songs of your choice. His communication is great and he seems truly excited to help you have a good wedding day. He is organized, professional and so so friendly! He helped to keep our dance floor full and really seemed to read the room and play things that kept the party going! The photobooth that came with his DJ set up was a hit with our family and friends and loved that we could see all the pics our guests took. We highly recommend him!!PETES MY DJ's reply:

Pete had GREAT energy and really set the vibe for our wedding. We were recently married and we are so glad we hired Pete. Don’t cheap out on a DJ - they really can make or break the vibe of the reception and are instrumental in keeping things running smoothly. Our dance floor was filled much of the night. We love that Pete not only knows music and how to keep a party going, but also included a photo booth (BIG hit at our wedding) and sound setup for our ceremony/reception, and had us use an easy and helpful mobile app to answer logistic questions and set songs for first dance, processional, etc. This helped with communication and organization, and ensured we didn’t forget anything. He is a skilled professional, listened to what we wanted, was available for questions as needed, and set a final meeting to go over what we wanted for our night. Truly great energy, and we had a wild party. Thanks Pete!PETES MY DJ's reply:
Thank you so much Megan!! I really appreciate this super amazing review and across all platforms. I'm so happy everyone had such a great time. Congrats again!! -

Gina G. Sent on 06/14/2022Pete is the exact DJ you want for your wedding...hire him!
Pete is the MAN. He was so helpful in our planning process right from the start. He was always available to answer emails and hop on a call when we needed. Music at our wedding was very important to us and Pete absolutely killed it. He kept our friends and family dancing at the reception, did a great job with our ceremony, and played our curated playlists at our cocktail hour and during dinner as requested. He helped us stick to our timeline and was flexible with last-minute changes to accommodate anything we needed on the day-of. We also did our photobooth through Pete and it was a HIT! It was a self-serve digital iPad photobooth that all of our guests LOVED! We were able to customize the logo for the images and they all looked great. There were people in front of it all night because it was just so easy to use. The uplighting also looked amazing. Working with Pete was one of our favorite parts of the day and we would recommend him to anyone looking to book a DJ for their wedding or event. Thank you, Pete!!PETES MY DJ's reply:
Gina, hot dayum!! Thank you so much for this epic review. I know everyone had a blast that night including me. Congrats again and enjoy the married life!! -

Allie V. Sent on 05/20/2022Book with Pete!
I honestly cannot recommend Pete’s my DJ enough. Pete is incredibly talented and personable. He provided advice when we needed it, but gave us space to make the wedding our own at the same time. He made everything run smoothly on the day of and made sure we had the best dance party. Beyond his talent, Pete is organized and quick to respond while planning for your big day. Seriously, book with Pete, you won’t regret it!PETES MY DJ's reply:
Thank you so much Allie for writing up this amazing review. I'm so happy I got to be part of your day. Congrats again!! -

Let's talk about the best DJ I have ever encountered! He was a riot to work with (rather, laugh with!) throughout the planning time leading up to the big day. His special lighting and sweet photo booth helped to really create the party environment for our reception! He never skipped a beat with the music, and completely had the intuition to read the room's vibe to keep the party alive. We could have danced for hours more! Even better? He took sweet snapshots and videos of a few of the special moments!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!PETES MY DJ's reply:
Melissa!! You are super amazing and again I can't thank you enough for not only writing this review but sharing it across so many platforms. This truly has me in my feelings right now and could never thank you enough. Congrats again!! -

Joy S. Sent on 11/16/2021One of our favorite vendors!!
I don't even have enough words to explain how great Pete was for our 10/29 wedding!! From the initial conversation, to the very last interaction at the wedding, Pete was definitely one of our favorite vendors!! He really cares to help you create your perfect wedding day and lets you be as involved (or as not involved) as you want. I literally customized every single playlist because we are huge music fans, and he loved that we wanted to be involved! You can tell he really cares about his clients, it isn't just a business for him.
We didn't have to worry about a single thing with him. He's so personable and is just a great guy. He worked seamlessly with all of our vendors and built relationships with them. A few weeks before our wedding, he worked with our venue's manager to take a tour of the venue so he was familiar with the place! Our venue was in West Town, Chicago which is quite far from where he's from. We really appreciated that he went the extra mile and more!!
He even uploaded detail photos and videos/photos from the reception to his facebook page. It was nice to see some shots right away! Again, something he didn't HAVE to do, but a nice little bonus that we really loved. I would definitely recommend Pete to any of our friends/family/anyone getting married. You won't regret it!PETES MY DJ's reply:
Joy and Steven omg I can't thank you enough for this amazing review. I seriously had the best time ever with you guys and was so thankful to be part of your day. You guys made me feel like family, congrats again! -

Pete is the best!!
Hire Pete right now! We were recommended him from a friend who saw him at another wedding, and as soon as we met him we knew we wanted him to be our DJ. He takes care of so many details and gave us so much advice outside of what we expected from a typical wedding DJ. His communication was constantly great, he talked out all our ideas with us, and I cannot rave enough how amazing he was the day of. From making sure the ceremony ran smoothly, taking his own videos and pictures, to playing the best variety of music that kept our dance floor going all night! He was on top of every detail always. On top of that he even provided an amazing photo booth that our guests loved and so many little details from uplighting to even making a special mix of our first dance song. Everything was perfect and we cannot thank Pete enough for all he did for us!PETES MY DJ's reply:
Lauren!! Yes!! Thank you for writing up this awesome review. You rock! I had so much for getting to be a huge part of your day. Thanks again!! -

Pete was wonderful! He kept us all dancing and having fun all night! Our family and friends enjoyed his photo booth too! We highly recommend him!PETES MY DJ's reply:
Yaaaay!! Thank you so much Melissa for writing up a review. I had a blast at your wedding and so happy you all loved the photo booth -

Patti Sent on 04/21/2021Absolutely amazing DJ! Kept the party going strong all night!!
Thank you so very much for all that you did to make the evening absolutely perfect for Katherine and Brett! They had the time of their lives, and all of our guests had so much fun out on the dance floor. You kept the party going with just the right songs at the right times. You were a super Master of Ceremonies, and we got a lot of compliments on how you did. Your music system, speakers, up-lights and flashing lights were perfect for the venue. We sincerely appreciated you working with Mike at the Grand Geneva to execute the video presentation so effortlessly; the maid of honor, Christine, was thrilled that we could show her video gift to everyone in the room.
Thank you again for traveling up to Lake Geneva with us, and being so easy to work with! We will be recommending you highly to everyone!PETES MY DJ's reply:
Thank you Patti for this amazing review. It was an absolute honor being part of their day and working with you throughout the whole planning process. I had such a blast celebrating their marriage with all your friends and family. Thanks again -

Molly F. Sent on 12/07/2018Great experience
When I met with Pete he really new what he was talking about. He made me feel so comfortable by answering any questions we had. He sat with us talking for over an hour to make sure we were a good fit for each other. I haven’t had a vendor yet be so wonderful. Thank you Pete! I look forward to you hosting our wedding!PETES MY DJ's reply:
Thank you Molly!! This is amazing and I look forward to being part of your big day! I can't wait to start on all the planning and seeing what kind of music you both have in mind. -

Kelsey Sent on 08/08/2019How amazing is he?!
When we originally contacted Pete, he was going to handle our reception, however he actually referred us to a friend of his, because he knew she would work better for our reception with the style of music we like. Who does that?! Only amazing people : ) We were super excited when we were still able to use him for our ceremony though! Pete is super response, and a great price for an amazing value. I'd highly recommend him for any future event!PETES MY DJ's reply:
Thank you Kelsey!! I was so excited to have been part of the ceremony and got to enjoy helping Deena at the reception. It turned out to be an amazing day and watching your dad get out there all night and dance is what made our day. Everyone kept coming up and thanking us for the great music. Thanks again for trusting PETE'S MY DJ & R Wedding DJ LLC to be part of your big day. -

Bailey Sent on 11/11/2018Fantastic DJ!
We found Pete on a wedding Facebook group. We chose him based on his very reasonable packages and many positive reviews. Pete met up with us for a consultation, he was very easy to talk to and had tons of great advise. Like many other reviewers mention, he is truly just a great person who would do anything for his clients, we could tell this instantly from our first meeting.
All though I trusted him as our dj I had a lot of anxiety since he had never been at our venue before. He assured us that he gets to all of his venues very early and he knew other djs that have done weddings at our venue. I was still a little worried given my personality type. Thankfully, there was no need to be! Pete did a fantastic job working at a new venue. We had a different location for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. He was able to smoothly transition each part of our wedding and run it flawlessly BY HIMSELF. Your dj runs your wedding so it’s very important that they know how to set up their equipment properly, they set the schedule and keep everyone on time, announce names correctly, and keep the dance floor moving. Pete did all of these things and more! So if any bride is debating using Pete because he has not been at their venue before please set those fears aside and book him! Also if something is bothering you just let Pete know because he will always try to help you work through any issues or concerns!
We would highly recommend Pete for any event or wedding! Just book him, tell him what you want, and relax because you can trust he will take it from there!PETES MY DJ's reply:
Omg Bailey wow!! Thank you for such an amazing review! It means the world to me that you included so much detail. Thanks again! I can't wait until the 5 & 10 year anniversary lol
