DJ Obie 
Rating: 5.0 (18 reviews)
  • DJ
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Illinois City, 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 250 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.

Our guests absolutely loved him! Our shuttle bus was overflowing at the end of the night because so many people stayed. We loved how the songs flowed and how he incorporated our song preferences.

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.

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!!

My focus goes far beyond just playing music. I believe a wedding DJ should not only bring the right energy to the dance floor but also act as a steady presence throughout the day. Helping manage the timeline, reading the room, and making sure transitions feel natural and stress-free. From the ceremony to the last song of the night, I'm there to support the flow of your celebration and keep things running smoothly behind the scenes.

Davin was INCREDIBLE! He was an incredible communicator, extremely organized, was on top of everything before our wedding day and during, and was incredibly talented. He played music that we requested as well as adding songs that matched the vibe. I really liked that he was actually DJing too. It wasn’t just like a Spotify playlist playing. I don’t know the right words to use but he used remixes and added beats to songs that would normally be difficult to dance to. My now husband and I didn’t want to leave the dance floor. There were plenty of times when we wanted a break from dancing physically but then another great song would come on so we just ended up staying on the dance floor. I even heard guests say they were getting some fresh air for a second and then the song would change and they changed their minds too and kept dancing. Honestly you couldn’t ask for a better DJ for your event. Such a talented and great guy!

We provide music for wedding receptions and corporate events, trade shows, conventions, social functions, charity events, benefits, galas, and private parties. Our band offers a mix of music that includes Big Band, Swing, Motown, R&B, Rock, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and today's current Dance Music. We invite you review our incredible song list. Our specialty is performing each song, note for note, creating a near perfect reproduction of the original recording.

The Connexion Band really made our wedding special and got everyone out on the dance floor. We let the band choose what songs to play and they killed it! They read the room and the audience very well. Ray was very responsive to all of my questions and easy to work with. I would highly recommend if music and dancing is important to your wedding guests. They added another element of fun to the night.

The BEST of the best! From the first moment that we exchanged emails, then calls, I knew we would be hiring Carissa and her team to be part of our wedding. We hired them for photography, videography and to be our DJ for ceremony and reception. We absolutely love our photos and are videos! Make sure to take a few sunset photos as these are our favorite. And our DJ was amazing as well! The guests had such a great time. Living a few hours away, Carissa helped me along the way giving me advice and resources. She always made time in her schedule to talk and help me when I got stuck. We did not do a first look and she helped me figure out the timeline to ensure we captured everything important to us. Her service is a 10/10!!!
