DJ Obie

5.0

Moline, IL
  • DJ
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Chicago Ridge, 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 hired Impulse Entertainment to DJ our wedding ceremony and reception. They were awesome and did not disappoint! Nick was our main contact throughout the planning process. In the 3 months leading up to our wedding, we had periodic updates to make sure the planning process was on track. They have an online planning portal that was easy to use and very helpful. John was the actual DJ for our event and rocked it! Super nice guys who know what they're doing and how to rock a party. I highly recommend! I had mixed feelings about getting uplighting, but was so glad we added that to the package. It really did make a difference!

  • Starts at $1,600

Awarded Best of Zola
We highly recommend Darrin from Premier Entertainment to be your wedding DJ! Darrin communicated clearly throughout the planning process, kindly reminded us of upcoming deadlines, responded very quickly to questions, helped us upload music selections in the app, and was professional, yet personal. A few weeks before the wedding, we had a meeting to go through details for the reception which we found to be so helpful. Darrin was knowledgeable and experienced which enabled him to give us good insight and direction for some things that still needed to be decided. The quality of the sound was incredible—the music sounded awesome but wasn’t too overwhelming for the room. This was perfect for making the dance floor both inviting and enjoyable for our wedding guests. Our reception space was relatively large so we were concerned about people being able to hear the speeches, so Darrin was able to bring an extra speaker so that everyone was able to hear well. Darrin even created song mixes for our special dances of the night which allowed us to personalize our special dances in a way that was meaningful and sweet to us. He truly went above and beyond every step of the way. Our friends and family were out on the dance floor the whole evening, and we got many compliments on how fun the music was. Additionally, Darrin set up uplighting throughout the perimeter of the room which made the atmosphere even more fun and lively. He even sent us some pictures and videos from the reception that were so fun to flip through and reminisce. We cannot recommend Darrin enough!! Book him for your wedding!

Hank and the Park Avenue Orchestra were absolutely amazing! Throughout the whole planning process, Hank was extremely helpful and patient. He made it very clear from the start that they would do anything to make our day amazing – and they did not disappoint. I was completely blow away on our actual wedding day. My husband and I, of course, watched all of their videos (which were great), but they didn't compare to the live performance. The whole band was incredible – the drums, horns, guitar, the singers. All of our guests danced the entire time. They were also able to accommodate some of our special requests – our first dance song was not on their song list, and they were able to learn it in time for our day. They also let my father and brother play a song with the band (drums + bass) – it truly made our day! I can’t recommend Park Avenue Orchestra enough.

We offer our Indian Wedding DJ services in Columbus, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Chicago, and destination locations.

Absolutely amazing experience working with this team! We had received several strong recommendations for Crown Ent when we were on the hunt for our wedding DJ and we are so glad we made the choice to hire them. We are so happy with not only the music DJ Samir put on for our baraat, ceremony, and reception, but also with his attention to detail, constant friendly communication, and willingness to go above and beyond what we asked of him. Throughout the planning process, Samir was readily available for input on all aspects of the wedding weekend (timelines, floor plans, song edits, lighting items, backup plans, the list goes on and on). He was always a quick text away for any clarifications/questions/recommendations—we believe this focus on customer service is something that sets these guys apart from the rest. Instead of going through the hassle of providing a song list, we had a quick conversation with Samir about what we were looking for and he took that and ran with it. Our guests had an absolute blast as there were no lulls on the floor which we loved. We cannot stress how lucky we feel to have had Samir as our DJ. If you are looking for a great DJ company this is your stop!

Brooklyn, NY

  • Serves Chicago Ridge, IL

After years working at a luxury entertainment design company in NYC, I noticed a void in live music, one where planners saw music as the background to the main event rather than something that can guide and elevate it. The bands weren’t listening to the room. We should make deliberate music choices based on the people in it, reacting to them. Not the other way around. My desire to create this harmony sparked the founding of Honey+Vinyl in 2013. Ten years in the industry, she began to dive deeper into the science of sound; how lighting, décor, food and timing interact with music, which drove her to establish the Sonic Sommelier™ service.

We hired Honey & Vinyl for our wedding and liked them so much we had them back for our anniversary party. Honey has an amazing voice and spent time with us to not only create a personalized song list but also understand the "mood" we were trying to create for our events. The group's performance at both events was nothing short of spectacular and really added the extra "wow" we were seeking.

The Hook Club is the real deal! We hired them to play the melodies for our ceremony, a jazz ensemble for the cocktail hour, and an entire set for the reception. The Hook Club was a huge reason why our wedding was such a success. Our guests had so much fun dancing to their songs and were so impressed by their performance. The band is usually the first thing our guests bring up when talking about the wedding. This group of musicians not only sounded and looked amazing but they were also extremely accommodating to what we wanted to hear. This was in part due to the fact that their repertoire is so expansive, being able to play almost any genre from any decade. Dan and the rest of the band worked tirelessly to perfect the set-list and make sure our day was perfect and I cannot thank them enough for what they did for us.

I looked forward to every Tuesday night when my friends and I would gather at Brother Jimmy’s Murray Hill to watch The Barnstorm and dance until we couldn’t feel our feet. I knew in 2017 that one day I would get married and I wanted to recreate this wonderful feeling that I would get every Tuesday night. WELL, joke’s on me because I got that feeling and more. I do not even have words for the atmosphere that The Barnstorm created on our wedding day. Leading up to that day, Brooks was INCREDIBLY attentive to the hundreds of questions that I bombarded him with on a daily basis. He walked me through pricing, how the first dances would go, what kind of music gets played during dinner – every question came with an immediate follow up and a “how are you doing?” – completely above and beyond what a typical wedding band would provide. And that was before our wedding day even happened! The day of was indescribable. The atmosphere provided by The Barnstorm was absolutely electric and had every single person on the dance floor from 8 pm to 1130 pm. I genuinely feel like our wedding was one of the best concerts I have ever been to. The band is absolutely magnetic. To top it off about one week after our wedding, as we were reliving the day, I get a text message from a friend saying “we booked your wedding band!”. They are THAT freaking good. If you want to have the best night of your entire life PLEASE look no further than The Barnstorm.

I have been a professional musician for my entire life. My mom was a music teacher & started me on piano at age 5. At 14, I discovered singing & the guitar. They have been a big part of my life since. I am an alum of Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA & toured the country extensively. Wedding receptions have always been my favorite because of the wonderful joyous feeling in the air. I enjoy putting on a great show & exceeding the client's expectations. I own a music school and understand that the customer is king. I've done over 300 weddings & always do my best to ensure that your special day is spectacular.

Hi I just copied and pasted this from the review I sent over. This band was incredible!! I’m so happy we decided to go with them—they rocked all night! The number one thing guests were commenting on, I can’t tell you how many times I was asked, “Where did you FIND them?!” The songs they played were perfect; you can really tell they pay attention to the vibe of the crowd! They offer services for all sound needs throughout the day (mics for officiant, ceremony sound, cocktail hour, etc). Rich is an all-around good person: professional, kind, easy-going. Typically responds within a day, which I was so thankful for! And they’re completely affordable, it won’t cost you an arm and a leg to have great live music!! We knew we wanted a band but I hadn't had luck finding anyone close to us that was affordable, responsive, and had wedding experience, so we almost gave up and had a dj instead, but I'm so happy we found Avalon! I cannot say enough times they exceeded all expectations and made the reception so unforgettable! Thank you for all the energy and talent you brought to our special day!

SO Rhythm & lights was founded in 1989. And the premise is really simple, simple pricing that includes everything we got. We only have two add ons. If you need the ceremony, and if you want a photobooth. Our teams going to setup all the lighting, and give you their all every single time, because the price doesnt dictate if they do that. We got you covered from every aspect. We do not do hourly rates, so no need to worry about the smallest details. BEcause we worry about the smallest details. You can just have FUN at your wedding.

Angie is such a professional! So very worth it to have someone who knows exactly what they are doing! She was so kind and professional and wow did she know her stuff and the details and had it ready! 10/10 would recommend her and this company!

My love of music started in the back seat of my dads car as he took me to daycare, with Marvin Gaye's "What's Goin On" on repeat. My love of music spans generations, cultures and genres, and has taken me all over the world, from England, Spain, St. Marteen, and Austria. My hope is that you allow me to curate a musical experience that will leave your guest talking about your wedding for years to come. As for me, I am a Brooklyn native, who during the pandemic was able leave corporate career to pursue my passion of music. My perspective, is to include and create, safe spaces for guests to feel young, and carefree - even if for a few moments.

Best decision we made regarding our wedding was booking Gregory. His energy, enthusiasm, and passion for curating the perfect music set for us was evident from the very start. He really cared to get to know us, our culture, and our musical styles—which was a very wide range! He really mixes all genres effortlessly. Like he’s truly an incredible artist. In addition to his musical talent, what’s most admirable is his love for music and passion for how music should make people feel. He put a smile on everyone’s face by interacting with the crowd and showing our guests new dance moves! Even though our wedding was 30 people the energy he created made it feel like a HUGE PARTY. Our other vendors even stayed beyond their contractual times because they loved the DJ and we’re having so much fun they didn’t want to leave just yet! Gregory is still the talk of our wedding, weeks later, guests have texted us randomly just to say how great the DJ was at our wedding.

  • Serves Chicago Ridge, IL for additional fees

When it has to be "once-in-a-lifetime". SoundFire DJ was established with a single goal in mind: to bring the next-level DJ experience to the Northeast Wisconsin market. A market that has otherwise only experienced DJs that emulated the radio, or what a regular person could do with an iPod. Now, more than ever, having a big music library isn't what matters about a DJ. It's about having a creative professional that knows how to lead a party, and bring it to a successful outcome with some class and pizazz!

Soundfire DJ did an exceptional job with our wedding on July 11, 2020 in Door County. The detail and hard work that was put into our ceremony and reception was really what put SFDJ above any other wedding DJ I have experienced. Shawn was excellent with talking to our guests and staying open to schedule changes throughout the night. He kept in contact with me throughout the entire wedding and was super fun and brought a great energy! Tyler’s music was amazing. I loved that he fused a bunch of songs that we requested together to make it more fun. He read the room and would play slow songs or fast songs at perfect times. Requests were always granted and they had an awesome selection of songs available. I loved that we were able to make playlists beforehand with their easy-to-use website. I also appreciated that we would get monthly emails with general wedding reminders of what is typically done that month during wedding planning. That was super helpful for myself who did not hire a wedding planner and had zero experience with planning events. SFDJ truly helped make our special day absolutely perfect, regardless of the COVID-19 pandemic. Since our wedding in 2020, we have been to several weddings of our friends and family that used SFDJ simply because of the experience they had at our wedding! I look forward to going to other events in the future with you guys!

He went out of his way to ensure we had the perfect day, and we certainly did. We had guests of all ages attending, and at one point there was hardly any room left on the dance floor because everyone was dancing and having a great time!
