They absolutely exceeded our expectations of what we were looking for in a DJ. DJ Clife was worth every single penny we paid and then some! We requested 2 sparklers and the foam glow sticks. Clife brought 4 sparklers, a CO2 cannon and uplighting all over our venue. He was the life of the party! We had so much fun with him and our guests! If we were to do it again, Clife would be my first phone call.”

“If you're looking for a DJ who goes above and beyond, Mike is your guy. From start to finish, he was the definition of professional. Responsive, organized, and genuinely invested in making the day perfect. Communication was excellent throughout the entire planning process. Mike made sure to walk through the venue with us ahead of time so that every logistical detail was locked in well before the big day. He handled all the traditional wedding DJ responsibilities flawlessly, but he also embraced our more unique requests without hesitation. We asked him to play video game lo-fi music during cocktail hour and dinner, and he absolutely nailed it. We're also huge fans of metal and rock, and we were initially worried that might not translate well to a wedding dance floor. He was able to mix those songs in live and keep the energy high all night. It turned out to be one of our favorite parts of the reception, and honestly something we weren't sure we'd get to experience. On top of everything else, our guests couldn't stop complimenting his work. He kept the floor packed and the vibe exactly right from beginning to end. We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out, and we recommend Mike without reservation.”

Nostalgia Rush

  • DJ
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Coal Valley, IL

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.

“Couldn’t recommend this DJ more. Between the communication before the wedding and the energy and vibe he brought - Lucas is the best! My husband and I are dancers so we were very particular about our music and Lucas was our perfect match. He kept the dance floor full all night and so many of our guests asked for his info so they could recommend him to friends! We had friends who hired a different saxophonist to play over their DJ to mimic our wedding and it didn’t compare. If you want a fun wedding - Lucas is your man!”

“I had booked Andrew as our DJ for our wedding and I’m so glad I did! From the first phone call, he made us feel comfortable and heard. He felt genuine in a way that none of the other DJs that we talked to did. He does a great job catering to what the customer wants and personalizing their announcements and songs. Throughout the entire day, Andrew timed all the announcements perfectly. We are an America-Turkish couple and Andrew did such a great job mixing the songs and made the Turkish songs a huge hit! We also got the photobooth and it elevated the whole experience; we were so happy to see all of the pictures our guests took together. We had so much fun dancing at our wedding and I’m so grateful for everything Andrew did for us to make our wedding special. Andrew, THANK YOU!!”

“When it comes to Mike and Traci and their band Good Clean Fun Band, there is simply no better option. Mike and Traci are absolutely incredible, dedicated, loving and beyond talented. They gave us the performance of a lifetime at our wedding, one our guests are still talking about to this day! From the very beginning, Mike and Traci were the first vendors I hand picked for our wedding. We were dedicated to choosing a band and the hunt began very early in the planning process! We picked them due to their incredibly kind nature, beyond impressive soundbites, and RAVE reviews we are so honored to be able to now be apart of! The band offers an extensive song list offering and are even willing to learn songs for their couples and perform them like they are PROs!!!! Mike and Traci became our family when we started working with them and carried the fun of our wedding on their backs with grace. They made the night the night it was! They even let me join them for a song with my amateur harmonica skills and made me feel like a million bucks doing it! The ease of working with them goes a very long way in planning a wedding and they made it so easy. From all the phone calls, questions, and prompt responses they guided the musical side of planning with such ease. Our dance floor was packed the ENTIRE night. There was not a single moment they did not have us dancing. I am so happy we worked with Good Clean Fun Band to the point I’m now trying to figure out a way to get them back out to perform again for us! They are my favorite vendors, favorite people, and will always hold a special place in our hearts. We love you to the moon and back, Mike and Traci! Love, Your newest and biggest fans; the Farleys!”

“We always ranked the music as the number one priority for our wedding, and we’re so glad we entrusted David Rothstein Band to bring our party to life. Planning a wedding during Covid had many challenges, including not being able to see the band live, but thankfully, David has so many live videos available where we can see the entertainment his band delivers day in and day out. Those videos, along with David’s passion for his work, made us confident to chose his team to make our day special. For our wedding, we had a classical duo during the ceremony, a pianist during cocktail hour, a jazz trio during dinner, and an incomparable 10 piece orchestra to dance the night away. From the first note to the final encore, we were BLOWN AWAY with the talent and energy that the band brought. We had a few special requests for the night - from a unique arrangement for our ceremony processional to a mashup of New York songs during the reception - and David’s team was beyond accommodating. We had dancing for 3 hours straight and not once did anyone leave the floor - the band was able to feel the energy in the room and chose the right song for the moment. I stumbled across the ingoing setlist after the party and was actually surprised to see that the band didn’t even stick to the songs they had picked - a sign that they adjusted based on what the crowd was loving. It’s been nearly a month since the big day and people keep telling us how amazing the music was, and we can’t stop watching the many videos David took from the night, reliving the magic that his band created. If you’re thinking about which band to have for your wedding, look no further than the David Rothstein Band - you won’t be disappointed!!”
