Nicky Avalo Studios is AMAZING. DJ Redd kept the dance floor filled all night long. I was one of the crazy brides who had a veryyyyy long must play list and he did a great job at playing the songs that kept people singing & dancing. From the very start, it was such an easy process!! Nicky was so so helpful. I filled out the document and everything I asked for was done. Before the wedding, I had actual nightmares about who would DJ my wedding (no idea why… just mustve been what I was most nervous for?! LOL) and WOW those nightmares were all wrong. DJ Redd is the best & even joined us on the dance floor! Seriously I cant say enough good things. I told Nicky about the nightmares I had & he went above & beyond & showed up to our wedding to say hey which just made it even more special.

Drew from Crimson Events was our DJ for our wedding ceremony and reception. He did an absolutely phenomenal job! He worked with us beforehand to get a feel for us as a couple and what we wanted for our big day. He was very easy to work with both before and during the wedding. He kept our guests engaged and entertained. He was able to accurately read the room and tailor the music to keep everyone happy. When several guests requested karaoke (which was not discussed beforehand) he doublechecked that it was okay with us before moving forward. DJ’s at an event can definitely make or break an occasion. Drew definitely enhanced our wedding experience. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fun DJ.

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!

Hey! I'm Andres, the owner and DJ behind Mero Music. I was born and raised in Chicago with Colombian roots, so I bring a unique blend of cultural flair and big-city energy to every event. As a bilingual DJ (Spanish & English), I seamlessly bridge the gap between cultures through music, creating a dynamic atmosphere that speaks to everyone on the dance floor. Unlike larger companies, I handle everything personally—from initial consultations to wedding planning and being your DJ and MC on your special day. This ensures you receive dedicated attention and a tailored experience.

We had the best experience with Andres at our anniversary party! From the beginning, he was so professional, easy to communicate with, and really understood the vibe we wanted for the night. We booked him without much anticipation, but he made everything so easy and guided us through all we needed to know. Our biggest concern was having more than 130 guests of different ages and nationalities, but he read the dance floor perfectly and kept everyone dancing, seamlessly mixing Latin and American music! We know everyone had a great time because so many people complimented the music. He also provided the photo booth, which was a huge hit! We got to choose and customize the photo design and backdrop, and on the day of the event, the setup looked amazing. His assistant did a great job too, the photo quality was excellent, and everyone had so much fun taking pictures. Plus, he sent us all the digital versions afterward! If you’re looking for someone who brings energy, excellent organization skills, and amazing music to your event, Andres is the one! Highly recommend him for any celebration.

Considered a “Master of Genres”, he’ll make your big day a blast, regardless of your taste in music! A couple can expect a high-energy atmosphere for their wedding day! Not only will you feel the energy from DJ One Chance's fast-paced DJ style but his energy as an Emcee can be felt throughout your wedding day.

Just to preface - I take wedding dance floors extremely seriously. I think it is make or break for the reception. My fiancé and I were trying to keep costs as low as we could and had our eyes on a few other DJ’s that were within our price range and had been good at other weddings until I stumbled on DJ One Chance. I knew from the second I saw his Instagram that I needed to have him at our wedding. His energy, charisma, and ability to read the room is incredible. He was a bit out of our original price range (which was very low to begin with, keep in mind) and I can absolutely tell you that he is worth every single penny. Every planning meeting we had with him got us more and more excited to have him with us on the day of. He listened to the vibe and energy we were going for and could not have done a better job. My parents were blown away that for a bit of a tight dance floor and 200 guests, the dance floor was PACKED from 8:30 - Midnight. Some quotes we received from friends were “I haven’t danced that much at a wedding in a long time” - Rick, 59 years old and “Your DJ was insane. He knew which songs were hits with the crowd and kept the energy going” - MK, 30. He was a hit with every age group and we are forever indebted him for creating the dance floor of our dreams. I have never seen so many people compliment a wedding DJ or a dance floor so passionately. DJ One Chance worked with us seamlessly to make sure we were able to have the best day ever. He even let us request one more last song after the “last song” that we picked ourselves didn’t hit as hard as we wanted. If you want the best dance floor experience for your wedding - this is your guy. Could not recommend any more.

We are your dedicated selectors, vibe technicians, mood makers, event experts, all-service DJs. Let us help with your wedding, corporate event, birthday party, or your special event. We are ready to make sure your event is one to remember.

From our first interaction, the team at 45 RPM was quick, professional, approachable and accommodating. They made the planning process seamless by proactively contacting the venue, wedding planner & musicians and provided all mic’s & stands for the ceremony. They’re musicians themselves so they knew exactly how to manage the acoustics in a window/steel enclosed patio. They’re also familiar with both obscure and pop music so they knew exactly how match the vibe of my “eclectic middle-aged” guest list. They even arrived earlier than contracted per the wedding planner’s request. They went above and beyond! So grateful & Highly recommend!!!
