DJ Obie

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

Awarded Best of Zola
DJ Obie is a one of a kind person, there’s seriously no one like him. And the hard work, dedication and intention he puts into every aspect of his job to ensure that the excitement and joy of the night is remembered forever is literally unmatched. I’ve experienced DJ Obie’s work ethic over and over again for years and he has yet to disappoint and I’m sure he won’t ever! Great communicator, fairly priced and he always ensures his clients are happy!

Felix & Fingers was the best addition to my wedding! We had a BLAST. It’s the best mix between a live band and sing along karaoke (but you don’t want your uncle to get the mic, you know?). They did beautiful ceremony music, incredible sax jazz during cocktail hour to keep it classy. Then, they kept everyone engaged and entertained for the reception, from my aunt in a walker to my college friends twerking. We danced the night away but lost our voices from screaming along with the songs too. 10/10 you can’t go wrong with dueling pianos - DJs and wedding bands are out, Felix & Fingers is IN!

Awarded Best of Zola
- [ ] I couldn’t recommend Carter Events enough! I stumbled upon Carter Events in my search for a DJ. What I found was much more than that. I could not believe how many services were available from the same company. How neat is that?! Since we did already hire an officiant we did not need that service but would otherwise have taken full advantage. We did, however, utilize the day of coordinator along with the DJ and Photo Booth. I loved utilizing all three services with one main person to coordinate with; it made it easier and much less emails to write. Not only does Carter Events offer many services but they are top notch too! The communication was prompt and clear, and any questions I had in this unfamiliar territory were answered with an eagerness to help. Carter Events sincerely cares about your big day and will help ease the process in any way. My sister also utilized Carter Events for her wedding and I’d recommend to anyone planning their big day. We loved working with Steven and his crew. Some members I did not meet until the day of but I wasn’t worried because I knew, from all the communication and sincere care for our wedding, that anyone from Carter Events would be just as great at Steven himself. Thank you so much for making our day special!

Easy to work with and covered both our DJ needs and musicians for the ceremony. We met with Al initially and discussed our vision after filling out several things about our wedding. That week, our actual Dj, Alan, called us to introduce himself. He stuck with our playlist, but also did a pretty good job of reading the room.

I can't recommend DJ Felix Entertainment enough! Alex always makes the job of the photographer easier with clear communication and professionalism. He even helps set up a great dance floor shot or two during the night and makes sure that we can get our photos and the couple and their guests can enjoy the night. He is fun, keeps the timeline on task and keeps the dance floor filled all night long. All of the DJs at DJ Felix reflect the same professionalism and positivity as Alex does.

Megan and Logan were great to work with in the early stages, and then Ali & Drake took over about a month before! They all were fantastic to work with and I could definitely tell that Ali & Drake were the best match for my wedding. I wasn't sure what to think about booking a company that matches a DJ to your wedding after booking, but they really did take the time to find what music style I liked and which DJ was going to vibe the best. Highly recommend!!!! The entire planning process was so easy with them and the online portal was so simple to use! They truly made my day exceptional!

Cuarteto Guataca

5.0

New York, NY
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Jacksonville, IL for additional fees

Bassist and bandleader Josh Levine got his start in the professional music business busking in SoHo with The Flying Neutrinos in ’93, so when NYC shut down in Spring of 2020, he capitalized on his experience as a street performer and began to play regularly in the parks of NYC with percussionist and sonero, Jainardo Batista, renowned flutist Itai Kriss making his debut on Cuban trés guitar, and María Raquel on vocals and minor percussion. Before long, the quartet had generated some buzz, several venues hired them to play outdoors and pianist Gabriel Chakarji and Grammy winning flutist and vocalist Jeremy Bosch became staples of the group.

I have used Cuarteto Guataca both personally (birthdays, family events) and professionally as a wedding/ event florist and event planner for YEARS. Every time they manage to get everyone on their feet. They are super professional always and extremely easy to work with. Hands down, Josh and his band will always be my first choice for latin entertainment (any entertainment for that matter)!!
