DJ Jeremy B was amazing to work with. Jeremy was great to communicate with and made the whole process so seamless. He was happy to fulfill any requests we had and also offered suggestions and advice where needed. At the wedding and reception, he managed the events of the evening extremely well and was great at reading the crowd. He kept the party going and had people on the dance floor the whole night.

HiMotive Entertainment & Photobooth did a great job keeping our wedding reception fun and upbeat. While their communication was a bit delayed leading up to the event, they were ultimately effective in executing on the day-of. The DJ kept the party going all night with a good song selection, though they did play 3 Taylor Swift songs in a row at the start, which we would have preferred more variety. The MC's ad-libs got a little overbearing at times, but overall they did a nice job sticking to the schedule and making important announcements. We'd recommend HiMotive to other couples looking for an energetic DJ.

We truly could not have asked for a better DJ experience for our wedding! From the very beginning, Alex made the entire planning process feel easy, organized, and completely stress-free. He was always responsive, helpful, and genuinely cared about making our day exactly what we wanted. Then came wedding day — and DJ Bob absolutely crushed it. He kept the energy high all night long and somehow always knew exactly what song to play next. Even during moments when the dance floor slowed down, he kept the vibe fun, upbeat, and entertaining so the party never felt awkward or dull. He also kept everyone laughing and made the whole night feel so natural and enjoyable. What impressed us even more was how professional and smooth everything was behind the scenes. There were a few technical difficulties during the night, and honestly, we never would have known if we hadn’t been told afterward. DJ Bob handled everything so calmly and seamlessly that the energy never dropped for a second. That level of professionalism made such a huge difference and kept the night running perfectly. One of the things we appreciated most was how much stress they took off our shoulders. We were able to relax and fully enjoy our wedding because we knew everything was in good hands. From keeping the timeline flowing smoothly to making sure our guests were having an amazing time, they went above and beyond.

I've been a DJ since 1997 starting out on the radio in college rotating between the morning wake-up, afternoon drive and late night. I have been DJing weddings since 2005 and I love watching soon-to-be newlyweds, their friends, and families enjoy themselves and being responsible for leading those once in a lifetime moments.

First, Nate, thank you for making our wedding dreams come true. Not only did our family and friends love and adore you, but you also redefined what it means to go above and beyond and care about people. That is simply what Nate does best. There aren't enough paragraphs to describe our experience with Nate. He always went out of his way to care for us. We were the priority. The process leading up to our wedding was so smooth. We always looked forward to our meetings with Nate. He made them fun and introspective, and he's highly accessible. From our first meeting, my now wife and I were hooked. He has a wonderful personality, and he never stopped caring about us. He made sure that our vision was met and executed to perfection. Also, the extra attention to detail was the icing on the cake. He listened to our vision and music choices and helped make our wedding possible. What is so great about Nate is that we never once felt like we were a number. Through this process, we all became family. In terms of the ceremony and reception, everything was perfect. The audio, the music, the vibes, and especially the beautiful uplighting were immaculate because of Nate. Not once did his energy drop, if anything, he made sure the party continued, and it did. He took control and didn't miss a beat on our special day. Nate understood exactly what to play, and he made our day easier. That's exactly what a DJ is supposed to do and then some. Also, his love and knowledge of music is just phenomenal. I know the themes of this review have been about family, caring, and service, and that's exactly what you get from Nate. Also, we had an amazing saxophone player who was fantastic. He's a great addition to Nate's platform. Let me say this. If we could get married again, Nate would automatically be the person we'd go with. There's no one like Nate, and there won't be. Nate is special and is truly one-of-a-kind. He creates memories, and we're just waiting to be able to have him as a DJ at another family function. He deserves all of the stars, likes, you name it. His YouTube page is amazing as well. Like I said, he is family now, and we love you, Nate! Which is why Nate Jones will always be our DJ.

At DJ LIVE Entertainment, we take your wedding music needs off your shoulders but never out of your hands. We are based in Chicago IL. ​ That starts with a personal consultation where I get to know the two of you – your style, your stories. Then we combine meticulous planning l to provide and become the master of ceremonies on your wedding day. Which leaves you free to relax and enjoy the most important day of your life. Got a business event or corporate party that needs a professional DJ? I do those, too

We actually booked DJ Live Entertainment's Jason after seeing him perform at another wedding and knowing we had to have him for ours. From our first conversation, he was so friendly and welcoming that planning the music felt easy and fun. Jason had us create our own playlist, then worked his magic remixing our songs for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and dance floor. What really impressed our guests was how he transformed everyday songs into dance tracks that kept everyone moving all night long. He's a true professional who knows exactly how to read the room and keep the energy high. We can't recommend Jason enough – he made our day feel personal and got everyone dancing.
