Where can I even begin? Alex wasn’t just our dj, he pretty much helped us create a timeline for our entire day. He was our host, support system and truly helped us throw the best celebration. Our guests LOVED him they are still talking about how awesome our DJ was. For months, we jumped on calls to perfect the experience we wanted and Alex was so incredibly supportive the entire time. A week before our wedding we had to change our wedding and he was one of the first people we called. Within minutes he had lists of places to call. When we figured out a new venue he did everything he could to become familiar with the new space and the owner. We arrived to the reception with our vendors all knowing eachother like they were friends all along - it was so unified like one family coming together. Alex was the glue that made our event as magical as it was. There truly isn’t anyone like him we are forever grateful.

From the fist consult call to the day of our wedding, John made sure we felt heard and understood our vision for the day. He was always reachable when we had questions and showed real flexibility as we made changes to our plans. On the wedding day, John and David (the cellist) went above and beyond what we expected! They coordinated all of our music seamlessly and even created a special monogram on the wall that tied our whole reception together. Their organization and attention to detail made everything run smoothly, and both of them were an absolute joy to work with. We can't recommend them highly enough to couples looking for a DJ and entertainment team that truly cares about making your day special.

Tony knew how to hit the perfect happy medium to keep everyone happy and the party going! Will recommend him to anyone I know is getting married in the Chicago land area!

I found my passion for music at a young age and knew that I was going to make a living doing it someday! I LOVE pleasing people with my piano playing &/or vocal skills and making their day special with the music that I provide and I also perform with a string trio or quartet and a jazz trio or quartet. I collaborate with the couple to find just the right pieces/songs for their special day!

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Robyn to perform at our wedding ceremony, and it was one of the best decisions we made! From the moment the first note played, it was clear we were in the hands of a true professional. She brought such elegance and emotion to the day – every piece was beautifully performed, perfectly timed, and added so much warmth to our ceremony. Robyn spent countless hours with us ahead of time to accommodate all of our music preferences with care and professionalism. She even traveled from out of town to be there for both our rehearsal and ceremony, which meant the world to us. Although we had some “not your norm” song choices, she took the time to learn new pieces just for our wedding. This made the experience feel even more personal. All of our guests commented on how moving and memorable the music was! If you’re looking for someone who is talented, reliable, and an absolute pleasure to work with, we can’t recommend Robyn enough. Thank you for making our big day even more magical!

Having a violinist for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour was one of the best decisions that we made, and Sweet Harmony made it SO easy. They were communicative, professional, and had a platform that made choosing songs and getting organized a breeze. It was affordable as far as wedding add-ons goes and classed up the wedding, our guests were all excited and impressed. Our violinist was incredibly talented and added an incredible flair. We chose a hip hop theme he nailed it (classy but also super fun and energetic). My only regret is that we were so busy that we didn't get to stop and truly appreciate it as much as we should have.

HiMotive Entertainment & Photobooth did a great job keeping our wedding reception fun and upbeat. While their communication was a bit delayed leading up to the event, they were ultimately effective in executing on the day-of. The DJ kept the party going all night with a good song selection, though they did play 3 Taylor Swift songs in a row at the start, which we would have preferred more variety. The MC's ad-libs got a little overbearing at times, but overall they did a nice job sticking to the schedule and making important announcements.

We didn’t have to worry about a thing Clare had it all under control and kept the party going. She covered everything from oldies and Suavemente to Blink-182 and somehow made it all feel cohesive and fun. One moment that really stood out was when we asked to include a specific meaningful slow song that was used as the first dance at my husband’s brother’s wedding.

We watched a lot of videos and felt confident they were going to be great, but they far exceeded our expectations.

So many of our guests said it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to and I credit a lot of that to the energy the band brought. On top of a killer reception, they also did incredible ceremony and cocktail hour music that made everything flow harmoniously. You just can’t beat a killer band for your wedding, worth every penny!

We don't do cookie-cutter. We never have. What started as late nights of live funk on Chicago's club stages became a decade-long obsession with making every wedding feel like the best concert you've ever been to. Family-owned since 2014, we're a collection of Chicago's finest voices and players, and your night should sound like you — not the wedding down the street. No generic playlists. Every setlist is built from scratch. We scale from 6 to 15 pieces with ceremony strings, cocktail jazz, DJ hybrids, photo booths, and lighting, plus a music app that makes planning easy. Hundreds of weddings in, a full dance floor still gets us.

Funktastic Productions Llc. was an absolute hit at our wedding! From the very first interaction, their communication was quick, friendly, and super detailed - they clearly cared about making our day perfect. And that's exactly what they delivered. I chose to have live piano and violin at my ceremony and they sounded beautiful together. They played every song I requested with depth and precision- even the fairly new music (I requested Birds of a Feather for the recessional, and they NAILED it!) They provided mics to the musicians and the officiant stand, which ended up being a lifesaver for us. The DJ and violinist were both fun and talented, keeping the dance floor packed all night long. DJ Servaun in particular did an amazing job matching the vibes, emceeing, and balancing in the moment song requests with a killer playlist. Get the DJ with Musician accompaniment package!! The electric violin player lit up the dance floor & guests LOVED it! Quote: “Best wedding I’ve ever been to! I’ve never been to a wedding where ‘Not Like Us’ got a violin accompaniment”. I also used Funktastic for our photobooth service and it was one of the most popular parts of the wedding. People lined up at one point to take pics- and I was thrilled with the quality of the designs and service. Funktastic Productions provided incredible value and high quality entertainment that made our wedding celebration truly unforgettable. We can't recommend them enough!

I’m Trevor Harris, founder and DJ at Total Harmony Entertainment, and I love helping couples turn their vision into a celebration they'll never forget. I structure wedding timelines in real time through cueing, sequencing, and continuous adjustment to guest response. Ceremony timing, introductions, and formal moments are kept precise, while I shape the reception moment to moment to prevent stalls or loss of momentum once dancing begins. The focus is maintaining clarity during structured portions of the day and actively managing movement and attention once the dance floor opens.

Awarded Best of Zola
Trevor was hands down one of the best vendors we chose for our wedding! From day one, he was incredibly communicative, responsive, and made the entire planning process so easy. The app was seamless to use and made organizing our timeline, song requests, and all the little details completely stress-free. He also offered a virtual Photo Booth, a better alternative for smaller weddings than a physical one. Trevor even added to that Photo Booth with videos he had taken throughout the night. We had a smaller wedding, and I was a little worried about keeping the dance floor full, but Trevor absolutely delivered. He knew exactly how to read the room and kept the party going all night. My husband loves rap, and I love alternative music, and Trevor blended both styles together perfectly. Every song felt like the right choice, and our guests had an amazing time. One of the most meaningful moments of the night was a surprise family dance that Trevor secretly coordinated with my husband. I had absolutely no idea it was coming, and it turned into one of my favorite memories from our wedding day. It was such a thoughtful surprise, and seeing everything come together so seamlessly made it even more special. It meant the world to me and my family. Trevor truly helped make our wedding feel like us. He brought incredible energy, paid attention to every detail, and made the entire night flow effortlessly. Our guests are still talking about how much fun they had, and we couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. If you’re looking for someone who is organized, talented, and genuinely cares about making your wedding unforgettable, Trevor is the one. Thank you for making our day more special than we could have imagined!

We couldn’t have asked for a better band for our wedding! From the very beginning, they were incredibly helpful during the planning process and made everything so easy and stress-free. Communication was excellent throughout. Any questions we had were answered promptly and clearly, and they truly went above and beyond to make sure everything was just right. The performance itself was absolutely amazing. The band brought such incredible energy to the night and kept everyone on the dance floor from start to finish. We’ve received so many compliments from our guests about how great the music was and how much fun they had. The setlist was perfect, and their talent as musicians and entertainers really shone through. A special shoutout to Matt, who was awesome to work with – professional, friendly, and super organized. He made us feel completely confident going into the big day and delivered beyond our expectations. Also, Laura was a fantastic emcee! She kept the flow of the evening smooth and engaging, and her presence added such a polished, personal touch to the event. If you’re looking for a band that will elevate your wedding and create an unforgettable experience, this is the one. We can’t recommend them highly enough!
