Awarded Best of Zola
Just let me START by saying, I am a true customer who hired DJ Jeremy B for my daughter's wedding at Walnut Hall Estate in Carrollton, IL on November 16, 2024. Not a friend, not a relative, just a mom hiring a DJ. I have not been paid in any way for this review... it is 100% our honest experience. My daughter had been to a prior wedding at that venue and loved how Jeremy kept the guests dancing so he was unanimously their choice! Forward to the planning stages... my future son-in-law is a fan of Marvel and DC Comics, particularly Batman. My daughter had an idea of playing "The Batman" by Michael Giacchino for her wedding march and even chose a wedding dress that had a cape to give it a classy "Gotham" vibe. The programs were Newspaper "Breaking News" announcements also with a Gotham vibe. DJ Jeremy took that idea and CREATED a remix for the wedding march. I knew nothing of this until my daughter called and said, "MOM!!! You have to hear this... the DJ created my walk-in song and it is PERFECT! I cried it was so perfect!". She drove to our house so we could listen to it on her phone... OMG AHMAZING! The evening of the wedding, the ceremony started and after the attendants (all 8 sets) walked in, the doors shut... then a quiet drum build up to the doors swinging open to this big boom of a climax of the remix with my husband and myself walking her down the aisle. I WAS SO MOVED and it was SO PERFECT... I just can't even tell you. Jeremy is SO VERY TALENTED... he KNOWS the "feel" you're going for and NAILS it! Not to mention he's got this handlebar moustache that is just edgy and super cool. Our Groomsmen were commenting, "I want that stache!" You want the BEST DJ?... hire Jeremy! You will NOT be sorry...and if you do...ask to hear that song!! It is just crazy good.

Dan Moore from DJ Shark Attack was absolutely incredible. From the moment we met him, he exceeded all of our expectations. Not only was he an amazing DJ who kept everyone on the dance floor all night, but he was also one of the most genuine and thoughtful people we’ve ever met. We had a special request for a unique entrance into our reception, and Dan completely nailed it. He went above and beyond to make it exactly how we imagined, and it turned out even better than we hoped. On top of that, we asked if he could include last names during the wedding party introductions—something he doesn’t normally do—and he took the time to learn and pronounce every single name correctly. That level of care and attention meant so much to us. He also made a real effort to connect with all of our guests and made sure everyone was well taken care of throughout the night. While my husband and I were off taking sunset photos, Dan got us plates of food and even kept them warm—something we hadn’t thought about, but he did without hesitation. Dan wasn’t just our DJ—he was a huge part of what made our day so special. If you’re looking for someone who truly listens, cares about your day and delivers it on every detail, DJ Shark Attack is the way to go. We couldn’t recommend them more!!!

I've been a DJ since 1997 starting out on the radio in college rotating between the morning wake-up, afternoon drive and late night. I have been DJing weddings since 2005 and I love watching soon-to-be newlyweds, their friends, and families enjoy themselves and being responsible for leading those once in a lifetime moments.

First, Nate, thank you for making our wedding dreams come true. Not only did our family and friends love and adore you, but you also redefined what it means to go above and beyond and care about people. That is simply what Nate does best. There aren't enough paragraphs to describe our experience with Nate. He always went out of his way to care for us. We were the priority. The process leading up to our wedding was so smooth. We always looked forward to our meetings with Nate. He made them fun and introspective, and he's highly accessible. From our first meeting, my now wife and I were hooked. He has a wonderful personality, and he never stopped caring about us. He made sure that our vision was met and executed to perfection. Also, the extra attention to detail was the icing on the cake. He listened to our vision and music choices and helped make our wedding possible. What is so great about Nate is that we never once felt like we were a number. Through this process, we all became family. In terms of the ceremony and reception, everything was perfect. The audio, the music, the vibes, and especially the beautiful uplighting were immaculate because of Nate. Not once did his energy drop, if anything, he made sure the party continued, and it did. He took control and didn't miss a beat on our special day. Nate understood exactly what to play, and he made our day easier. That's exactly what a DJ is supposed to do and then some. Also, his love and knowledge of music is just phenomenal. I know the themes of this review have been about family, caring, and service, and that's exactly what you get from Nate. Also, we had an amazing saxophone player who was fantastic. He's a great addition to Nate's platform. Let me say this. If we could get married again, Nate would automatically be the person we'd go with. There's no one like Nate, and there won't be. Nate is special and is truly one-of-a-kind. He creates memories, and we're just waiting to be able to have him as a DJ at another family function. He deserves all of the stars, likes, you name it. His YouTube page is amazing as well. Like I said, he is family now, and we love you, Nate! Which is why Nate Jones will always be our DJ.

DJ Live Entertainment was fantastic to work with for our wedding. They had great communication throughout the planning process, always responding promptly to our questions and requests. On the day of, Jason did an excellent job of reading the room and crowd to keep the dance floor packed all night. Everyone raved about how much fun they had dancing the night away thanks to the DJ's music selection and energy. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ to make our wedding reception truly special.
