I still remember when he “teared up” listening to our love story……he truly cares and wants to be a part of your love story to make the day perfect. He has your best interest at heart. He is an unbelievable DJ. He reads the crowd well and adjusts accordingly. We know he absolutely loves his work because he was always engaged and checking in with us routinely to make sure everything was perfect and he never stopped smiling when working on our wedding day. Our dance floor was full all night and never sizzled out, not even for one song. The CO2 cannons kept people cooled off on the dance floor.

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!

DJ Obie

Moline, IL
  • DJ
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Barrington, 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
When it came to planning my wedding, there were a million things on my mind, but finding the right entertainment turned out to be a breeze, all thanks to DJ Obie Entertainment. From the moment we connected, it was clear that we were in good hands, but little did I know just how exceptional our experience would be. DJ Obie was more than just a DJ; he was a true professional who approached our special day with unmatched dedication and expertise. His level of organization and communication was unparalleled, easing my worries and allowing me to fully enjoy the lead-up to our wedding. From the get-go, he embraced our event as if it were his own, and that level of commitment was evident in every aspect of his service. One thing that truly stood out was DJ Obie's meticulous preparation. He had a comprehensive spreadsheet with all the necessary information, including details I hadn't even thought of. This level of attention to detail not only impressed me but also made the entire process smoother and more enjoyable. On the big day, DJ Obie proved himself to be the life of the party. He seamlessly coordinated with our wedding coordinator, ensuring that every moment flowed effortlessly. From the ceremony to the reception, his music selection was spot-on, keeping the energy high and the dance floor packed. Speaking of the dance floor, DJ Obie had an uncanny ability to hype up our guests like no other. People who I never expected to see dancing were out there, having the time of their lives. The atmosphere was electric, and the compliments about the party's liveliness are still pouring in. In short, our wedding wouldn't have been the same without DJ Obie Entertainment. His professionalism, talent, and passion for what he does shone through every step of the way, resulting in an unforgettable experience for us and our guests. If you want your event to be nothing short of amazing, I wholeheartedly recommend DJ Obie. You won't regret it.

We didn't give him much direction during the planning process because we trusted him to do a great job, and he did! He was able to incorporate Serbian folk music, Croatian pop and rock, Reggaetón, hip hop, country, and pop into our evening, which kept all of our guests happy. We are so grateful for his work and we can tell he takes great pride in his business. We recommend Luniks Entertainment to anyone looking to throw a great and memorable party.

All I can say is the clue is in the name. If you know, you know. Evan & Anna were an utter joy to work with. Evan DJ’d our wedding on July 7 and he just knocked it out of the park. We dumped at 12 hour playlist on him, told him the vibes we wanted at each phase (e.g. cocktail, dinner, after party) and he did the rest. Absolutely nailed it. Played the perfect song at every moment and made our night so special. We love our music so this honestly the highest compliment we can pay. We’ve been to 25 weddings as guests and wish Evan could have DJ’d them all. Groove is well, and truly, in the heart!

The day of, not only was he energetic and warm, but he truly helped out reception be a success and I received so many complements! Right away, Steven helped us get ready for our grand entrance, organized with the venue and photographers, and made our wedding party feel so comfortable! He was so helpful in making sure our speakers were ready at the right time, and he was not afraid to reach out to people at the venue to keep things moving along as needed. I had guests who complemented his song selections, his transitions between songs, and the level of sound. My husband and I were so pleased with how the day went, and we would hire Steven again!

Me and my now Wife found William through Zola. He was very professional and very flexible as our wedding was on a private beach home and completely put together by Her and I and a couple family members. Needless to say, William was the most stress free part of our wedding planning, despite having to travel 3 hours and additionally having to learn a custom wedding song for us. I would fully recommend him to anyone needing a reliable, legit, and reasonably priced Musician!

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)!!
