“Having a violinist for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour was one of the best decisions that we made, and Sweet Harmony made it SO easy. They were communicative, professional, and had a platform that made choosing songs and getting organized a breeze. It was affordable as far as wedding add-ons goes and classed up the wedding, our guests were all excited and impressed. Our violinist was incredibly talented and added an incredible flair. We chose a hip hop theme he nailed it (classy but also super fun and energetic). My only regret is that we were so busy that we didn't get to stop and truly appreciate it as much as we should have.

“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 booked Groove is in the heart & DJ Clare for our wedding. We had a wide range of music tastes and weren’t sure how it would all come together but Clare handled it effortlessly. She read the room, kept the energy going, and made sure every moment had the perfect soundtrack. From the pre-ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, to the dance floor, everything flowed beautifully. We didn’t have to worry about a thing Clare had it all under control and kept the party going. She covered everything from oldies and Suavemente to Blink-182 and somehow made it all feel cohesive and fun. One moment that really stood out was when we asked to include a specific meaningful slow song that was used as the first dance at my husband’s brother’s wedding. Clare was completely receptive and even offered to call them out before playing it, turning it into a sweet and memorable moment for everyone. Thank you Clare!!!”

We don't do cookie-cutter. We never have. What started as late nights of live funk on Chicago's club stages became a decade-long obsession with making every wedding feel like the best concert you've ever been to. Family-owned since 2014, we're a collection of Chicago's finest voices and players, and your night should sound like you — not the wedding down the street. No generic playlists. Every setlist is built from scratch. We scale from 6 to 15 pieces with ceremony strings, cocktail jazz, DJ hybrids, photo booths, and lighting, plus a music app that makes planning easy. Hundreds of weddings in, a full dance floor still gets us.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Funktastic Productions Llc. was an absolute hit at our wedding! From the very first interaction, their communication was quick, friendly, and super detailed - they clearly cared about making our day perfect. And that's exactly what they delivered. I chose to have live piano and violin at my ceremony and they sounded beautiful together. They played every song I requested with depth and precision- even the fairly new music (I requested Birds of a Feather for the recessional, and they NAILED it!) They provided mics to the musicians and the officiant stand, which ended up being a lifesaver for us. The DJ and violinist were both fun and talented, keeping the dance floor packed all night long. DJ Servaun in particular did an amazing job matching the vibes, emceeing, and balancing in the moment song requests with a killer playlist. Get the DJ with Musician accompaniment package!! The electric violin player lit up the dance floor & guests LOVED it! Quote: “Best wedding I’ve ever been to! I’ve never been to a wedding where ‘Not Like Us’ got a violin accompaniment”. I also used Funktastic for our photobooth service and it was one of the most popular parts of the wedding. People lined up at one point to take pics- and I was thrilled with the quality of the designs and service. Funktastic Productions provided incredible value and high quality entertainment that made our wedding celebration truly unforgettable. We can't recommend them enough!”

I structure wedding timelines in real time through cueing, sequencing, and continuous adjustment to guest response. Ceremony timing, introductions, and formal moments are kept precise, while I shape the reception moment to moment to prevent stalls or loss of momentum once dancing begins. The focus is maintaining clarity during structured portions of the day and actively managing movement and attention once the dance floor opens.

“We absolutely loved working with Trevor for our wedding! Would 1000% recommend him as your DJ. We first met Trevor at a West Loop Wedding Walk event, and we knew right away that he was someone we wanted to work with. He was so personable, knowledgeable, and genuinely excited about making our wedding day special, and that first impression could not have been more accurate. Throughout the entire planning process, Trevor was incredible. We had multiple planning meetings leading up to the wedding, and he was always organized, prepared, calm, and incredibly attentive to every little detail. He took the time to get to know us, understand the vibe we wanted, and make sure all of our music and timeline details were exactly what we envisioned. Having someone we could completely trust made the planning process so much less stressful. And on the wedding day, Trevor absolutely delivered! He kept everything running smoothly and, most importantly, BROUGHT THE BANGERS. The dance floor was bussin all night, and we had so many guests tell us afterward how much they loved the music and how fun the reception was. He did such an amazing job reading the crowd and knowing exactly what to play to keep everyone dancing. Trevor was truly the perfect combination of professional, organized, detail-oriented, and fun. We are so grateful he was part of our wedding and helped make the night so memorable. From the first time we met him at the Wedding Walk to the last song of the night, we knew we were in great hands.

After I finished my PhD in genetics and molecular biology at Yale, I left behind a career as a research scientist to pursue a lifelong dream as a professional sax player. While the pandemic was a roadblock to many musicians, I managed to gain momentum as a street performer when I began hosting outdoor concerts for the local entertainment-deprived graduate students. A few of my fellow graduates asked me to perform at their weddings, and even DJ, so I spent the next two years honing my skills and constructing a very 80's synthwave-style brand and equipment to match the vibe.

“Lucas was the life of the party at our Oak Hill Farm wedding and made our day truly incredible. From our first conversation, he was responsive and professional, getting back to us right away with thoughtful answers to all our questions. What really blew us away was how he learned multiple songs just for us and coordinated seamlessly with our DJ to create different vibes throughout the night. His energy was contagious and kept our guests dancing the entire time. We loved how he adapted the setlist and mood as the evening went on, from dinner to dancing. If you want a musician that will bring the fun and help create an unforgettable celebration, Nostalgia Rush is your answer. Our guests still talk about how much fun he brought to our wedding.”

“We had the absolute joy of having Stephanie play at our wedding, and she helped make the day truly magical. From the first note to the last, her performances were all amazing. Stephanie was fantastic to work with—super professional and incredibly kind. She was always quick to respond, worked seamlessly with our other vendors, and she was even able to make a custom mash up for us as a reflection of our multicultural wedding. The music was simply beautiful. Stephanie played each piece with such emotion and skill, creating the perfect romantic and upscale atmosphere that we wanted for our ceremony and reception.

“From the fist consult call to the day of our wedding, John made sure we felt heard and understood our vision for the day. He was always reachable when we had questions and showed real flexibility as we made changes to our plans. On the wedding day, John and David (the cellist) went above and beyond what we expected! They coordinated all of our music seamlessly and even created a special monogram on the wall that tied our whole reception together. Their organization and attention to detail made everything run smoothly, and both of them were an absolute joy to work with. We can't recommend them highly enough to couples looking for a DJ and entertainment team that truly cares about making your day special.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better band for our wedding! From the very beginning, they were incredibly helpful during the planning process and made everything so easy and stress-free. Communication was excellent throughout. Any questions we had were answered promptly and clearly, and they truly went above and beyond to make sure everything was just right. The performance itself was absolutely amazing. The band brought such incredible energy to the night and kept everyone on the dance floor from start to finish. We’ve received so many compliments from our guests about how great the music was and how much fun they had. The setlist was perfect, and their talent as musicians and entertainers really shone through. A special shoutout to Matt, who was awesome to work with – professional, friendly, and super organized. He made us feel completely confident going into the big day and delivered beyond our expectations. Also, Laura was a fantastic emcee! She kept the flow of the evening smooth and engaging, and her presence added such a polished, personal touch to the event. If you’re looking for a band that will elevate your wedding and create an unforgettable experience, this is the one. We can’t recommend them highly enough!”
