  • Serves Highland Park, IL for additional fees

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.

Rhythm and lights exceeded our expectations. They were easy to work with every step of the planning process and very helpful. As a nervous bride this was very important, their attention to detail throughout was a huge weight off my chest, knowing I didn’t have to worry about anything. Mitch was our dj and he was absolutely amazing. The reception flowed flawlessly and the dance floor was full all night. (Ask for Mitch) I can’t imagine how different my wedding would have been if I hadn’t booked Rhythm and lights! Literally the best ️. Thank you!!!

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.

With regard to our 35th Anniversary Vow Renewal Ceremony & Celebration, we want to thank Gregory Wilson for his professional services and for lending his creative artistry to our vision! You listened to our desires and you delivered! The pre ceremony jazz was unexpected, unbelievably beautiful and it definitely helped relieve my stress(you pay attention). From the guest arriving, to the entrance of the groom and the officiants, to and including my entrance, the advice you gave and suggestions that you made about the music was spot on! As a matter of fact, your comments about the various transitions in music and the event runtime in general was invaluable. Thank you Gregory Wilson for the soulful sounds that you curated with us in mind! You kept the music flowing, your timing, your sense of humor and the way you interact with others is refreshing. You definitely left us all wanting another hour or two!!
