3rd Shift DJs

4.5

Elgin, IL
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Hanover, 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!

Davis & Company Productions

5.0

Freeport, IL
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,000

Davis & Company Productions was birthed in a time of uncertainty during the pandemic shutdown of 2020. After years of being in the hospitality and service industry and quite a few weddings, I definitely found my passion for people only growing the more I got into it. From weddings and school dances to corporate and private family events, my goal with Davis and Company is to help create and execute magical moments meant to last a lifetime

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved our experience with Davis & Company! We are both small business owners, and we've both spent time working in the wedding industry to one extent or the other. So trust us when we say the professionalism of Lance and his attention to detail is unlike anything we've seen from a wedding DJ. Our discovery meeting was just that! We discovered everything we didn't have planned for our audio needs, which was humbling because we felt we had solid experience, as mentioned above. Lance walked us through step by step and ensured we felt fully prepared by the end of the meeting. He also worked with us to establish the vibe we wanted for the reception and the party! And yes, we mean vibe; trust us. If you want a wedding DJ you can trust to put on a great party and be there for what you need and make the process professional and painless, then look no further than Davis & Company!

DJ Obie

5.0

Moline, IL
  • DJ
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Hanover, 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.

We were absolutely thrilled with Funk Almighty at our wedding, especially with their incredible rendition of a Taylor Swift song!!! When we mentioned our love for Taylor Swift, the band went above and beyond and created an entire medley of her hits. This wasn’t just another wedding band playing covers, it became a whole show that added their unique funk twist. I can’t begin express how cool it was to watch our request come to life like that!! Daryl and the team's ability to transform our simple request into such an elaborate and memorable piece was incredible. Easily the highlight of the evening. And it was such a personalized touch that made our special day even more unforgettable. Aside from that working with them was a breeze. The rest of the night was great too but I really can’t overstate how much we appreciate them for going above and beyond with our request. That’s true talent and creativity so we can't recommend them enough for their exceptional service and making our wedding one of a kind! *Original review posted on theknot.com https://www.theknot.com/marketplace/funk-almighty-chicago-il-2062080
