3rd Shift DJs

4.5

Elgin, IL
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves DeKalb, IL

3rd Shift DJs is an Elgin, IL-based DJ company that specializes in weddings and nuptial events. This budding business is owned and operated by Alex Dingmann, a DJ professional with a passion for adding thrill and excitement to parties through the sound of music. With years of experience under his belt, Alex helps newlyweds across the country celebrate their new chapter, creating personalized playlists that have everyone dancing all the way home.

My wife and I contacted Alex as we found his business on weddingwire. Once we reached out, Alex responded fairly quickly and a call was scheduled. He was very patient with us and very transparent of how he runs things as the DJ. DJ’s can really make or break your wedding and we wanted to ensure that we had someone good lined up. Alex was very specific on what his expectations were, which really put us at ease. During the planning process, he was extremely helpful in helping us make some decisions regarding what to have and what not to have. Alex surpassed both of our expectations on the actual day. The wedding flow was extremely smooth and he worked with us for our playlist. I would 15/10 recommend Alex. He is an amazing DJ for all your needs. Thanks again Alex!

DJ Obie

5.0

Moline, IL
  • DJ
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves DeKalb, IL

I got into DJing by accident. After learning that working as an Industrial Engineer in a fortune 500 company didn't bring me much fulfillment, a friend suggested I join his DJ company. His company supplied DJ services for over 200 weddings a year! After my first wedding gig I was hooked. It gave me purpose, and an outlet I never knew was possible. I quickly became the most requested DJ in the company and within my market. Now I DJ on my own, and I'm so blessed to be able to curate an atmosphere of joy where families can connect.

I booked Obie for my wedding on April 7. I knew there were multiple moving parts to making a wedding successful. However, I did not realize the magnitude of having a great DJ and MC until I had DJ Obie for both. I was incredibly impressed on how professional he was from the very beginning. From my past experience, many DJs were happy to be picked and paid for a job. DJ Obie was different. He not only appreciated taking on the job, but he strived to ensure that the wedding would be a moment to remember, and without a doubt, he accomplished that. During the wedding and days after, I continually heard my (and my wife’s friends) say that DJ Obie did an incredible job. Without a doubt, it’s the best job that I experienced and I look forward to working with you again. Thank you so much for making this a moment to remember.

The Good Kidds

4.5

Chicago, IL
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves DeKalb, IL

A Chicago based DJ that has worked events in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, New York City, Miami, and Internationally. He likes to draw from from his roots in Houston, New Orleans and current home of Chicago to create a fun atmosphere for his clients. Graduate of Xavier University of Louisiana and Tulane University in New Orleans, this former social worker knows a good party.

DJ Chriss was so great to work with for my husband and I's wedding day. We really took our time to create a more modern wedding playlist from ceremony, to cocktail hour, and into reception as we wanted a more upbeat and lively atmosphere that is in sync with who we are as a couple rather than your standard classic wedding playlist we've heard over and over that we can't really dance to the way we would like. He listened to us and appreciated the list we sent over while understanding our taste and adding some songs to it throughout the wedding day that made for an amazing time that our guests can't stop talking about! -Kristin and Ryan Roberts 6.25.22

Awarded Best of Zola
Steven is a true professional (with organized documentation on songs and day-of timeline, clear dates and payment expectations, and attention to detail). He is also a joy to work with (positive, high-energy, hyper focused on tailoring his services to the needs/wants/style of the wedding, creative, solution-oriented, willing to assist with additional mics/stands/timeline ideas where he can). He cares about the couple and the quality of his services; he hadn't done an event at our venue previously and volunteered to take time out of his personal live to make a day trip, scope the venue, and discuss setup with our venue coordinator. He wanted to ensure he was prepared for our event and could ensure his equipment/setup/audio would be top-notch on our day. We had a fabulous wedding with our favorite people and our favorite music :) Steven helped enhance the experience for us and our family/friends raved about him, his music, his dancing, and the fun he brought to the day for weeks following the event.

Awarded Best of Zola
We used for DJ Clife for our wedding 09/2023 and couldn't be happier! When looking for wedding DJs it can be tough to know what you're getting for your money. At first I was cautious as he is on the higher end of price ranges but noticed the higher ratings to match. I would say without a doubt DJ Clife Company was a perfect choice for us! We had several zoom meetings to discuss the vibe and creative view of our day and then focusing more on logistics and specifics for the night. Our wedding had some specific scheduling needs including a 15 minute dance session at the beginning of the reception, 2 dance numbers, choregraphed formal dances and other surprises. Clife Estores delivered on every detail that was needed from the beginning of the day until the end. Using the "Vibo" app helped us drop in songs and add information for our schedule to keep our conversations focused on what was needed - we enjoyed this process. Leading up to the wedding he was quick to respond to e-mails/texts with last minute questions or changed plans. My main concern was finding a DJ who truly mixed the music like you would hear in a club/party atmosphere with the best 2-3 minutes of the song played and rolling right into the next song. I asked for a constant variety of music genres so it didn't fall into that typical wedding format. Clife delivered some of the best music mixes I've ever heard! All of my guests commented on how great the music was and everyone from people who love to dance to those just watching all said how they really felt the party vibe. A couple commented that they planned to leave when the music slowed down and it never did so they stayed all night! He truly set the atmosphere in a positive direction and we had the best night of our lives! If you are unsure of the cost I can assure you he is worth the expense and truly created a great atmosphere for everyone! A few add-ons we used with DJ Clife: Room Uplighting, 4 moving spotlights and 2 sparklers - all enhanced the night! For anyone who has a lot of dancers in their guest list I would suggest looking into the LED dance floor with "Unique Events" in Cedar Rapids, IA. Pricey, but the DJ and dance floor were the most talked about from our guests.
