Jim has been so friendly and professional throughout this entire process — he’s made this a really seamless and exciting experience! Our DJ Rick was great at reading the room and adjusting the music from our curated track list to fit the vibe we were going for (we really wanted people to work the dance floor!). Lisa helped run our Photo Booth, and it was such a blast. We just got the pictures back and they’re so fun! They really capture the feeling, which I love.

J Helbig Cheese-Free DJ+MC 
Rating: 5.0 (9 reviews)
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,575
  • Serves Hartville, OH

We’ve all witnessed this: A wedding DJ who thought they were the main event – the endless mic chatter, the forced games, the tacky props, and the "impromptu" dance lessons that kill the momentum of a perfectly good night. It’s tacky, it’s insulting to your guests and – quite frankly – I’m over it!   Which is why I built a brand that does the exact opposite with a different set of rules. A boutique, "Non-Cheesy, Non-Obnoxious" experience where the vibe is comfortable, inclusive, organic FUN and where the soundtrack doesn't suck. Because it reflects you! Just like your reception should.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jack was a true partner during our wedding planning and on our day. He worked with us on song selection (there were a couple of songs we drew a blank on), helped fine-tune the schedule of events and worked with our photographer and venue to iron out the details and make sure they were all on the same page. We kept the song selection up to him as much as we could, providing some "dos" and "don't" and he did the rest. We got several comments on the music after the fact from both friends and family, so he managed to please both crowds. I'd highly recommend Jack to anyone.

We were thrilled with Beats By Brezo as the DJ for our wedding reception.

The ceremony music was perfectly timed and set the tone beautifully. Once the reception got underway, Seth did an amazing job reading the room and playing songs that kept the dance floor packed all night long.

We cannot say enough good things about Edd! He DJ’d our wedding this past September and absolutely crushed it from start to finish. He also DJ’d my sister’s wedding, so we already knew we were in great hands—and he still exceeded our expectations. Edd truly understands electronic-style music and can mix seamlessly, which kept the dance floor packed all night long. The energy never dipped, the transitions were flawless, and the vibe was exactly what we wanted. On top of his talent, he has an amazing personality—professional, fun, and so easy to work with. He knows how to read the room and keep the party going without missing a beat. He’s DJ’ing my best friend’s wedding this coming June. We’d recommend Edd to anyone who wants a packed dance floor and a DJ who has exceptional talent and skill! —Ashley & David Hudoba

We've been rocking weddings for fun since 2001, as a full-blown, state-registered business since 2012. Providing the best value in entertainment you will find. You'll find CHEAPER, but you won't get more bang for your buck anywhere else. We have an experienced staff that I've hand-picked and personally trained, I supply all the equipment to ensure consistency and upkeep, and we have back up DJs and equipment in case of emergencies. As the owner, I'm involved in each and every wedding. This is how I make a living and put food on the table so there's nothing more important to me than you having the best possible experience.

We didn't do anything traditional or on a schedule and they worked with it great. They had all the requested music, even some wacky stuff no one would know! Our DJ let us know when it was time to do things and how, and even when we were late getting the cake out - it helped a lot!

We understand you want your event to be fun, yet elegant and classy – but most of all stress-free. We’re dedicated to putting on a fun, yet elegant show for you and your guests. We don’t make unbecoming jokes, perform cheesy acts or display tasteless advertisements.

Streamcle is a preferred partner of By Request. We provide Livestreaming, event photography and custom production at many of their weddings and events. One of the best things about By Request is that their Djs are in constant contact with all vendors throughout the day, and they keep the guests informed too so no one misses a moment. By Request is small enough to provide a one of a kind experience but large enough to be able to staff and furnish equipment to multiple locations and large events on any given day. Couples and hosts are treated to custom service so no two events are alike. Their inventory is modern, clean, well maintained and frequently upgraded. We look forward to future events together!

I researched 75 DJs so you don’t have to!! Seriously, I made a spreadsheet with 75 DJs and this was the obvious decision from the very beginning. Best vendor by far that we hired. From the beginning to the end I can’t even explain how capable of hands we were in for our entire wedding team. Pantera provided the video team, Photo Booth, and DJ / MC! One of the biggest reasons our wedding went smoothly was because of this team. Not only amazing vendors, but turning into great friends.

Tyson is an industry favorite - MANY of us in the industry speak his praises. Between his ability to understand and gauge the audience correctly and accurately, to making pivots for crowd engagement - he never misses and always delivers. On a professional manner - Tyson is amazing to work with and I continue to look forward for ways to collaborate with him. He has offered assistance on a number of occasions when I am running around, he never ceases to think 3 steps ahead and he is in it for everyone at the event and for that - we truly believe he is one of the best.

I booked C-Town Entertainment at the recommendation of another bride, and I was so happy with Bob and his assistant! I may be biased, but ours was one of the most fun weddings I have been to. Everything ran smoothly and Bob did a great job reading the room and picking songs that brought people to the dance floor whenever needed. He checked in with me and my family/bridal party throughout the evening and made last minute adjustments as needed. He was professional and made sure we had all the moments and songs that we wanted. I have been to weddings with DJs who were not as skilled and it makes a big difference in the flow and energy of the evening. My guests started chanting “one more song!” at the end of the evening, and I think that says it all. I cannot thank you all enough for the care you put into our wedding!
