DJ Obie

5.0

Moline, IL
  • DJ
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Waterloo, IA

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 200 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.

“When it came to planning my wedding, there were a million things on my mind, but finding the right entertainment turned out to be a breeze, all thanks to DJ Obie Entertainment. From the moment we connected, it was clear that we were in good hands, but little did I know just how exceptional our experience would be. DJ Obie was more than just a DJ; he was a true professional who approached our special day with unmatched dedication and expertise. His level of organization and communication was unparalleled, easing my worries and allowing me to fully enjoy the lead-up to our wedding. From the get-go, he embraced our event as if it were his own, and that level of commitment was evident in every aspect of his service. One thing that truly stood out was DJ Obie's meticulous preparation. He had a comprehensive spreadsheet with all the necessary information, including details I hadn't even thought of. This level of attention to detail not only impressed me but also made the entire process smoother and more enjoyable. On the big day, DJ Obie proved himself to be the life of the party. He seamlessly coordinated with our wedding coordinator, ensuring that every moment flowed effortlessly. From the ceremony to the reception, his music selection was spot-on, keeping the energy high and the dance floor packed. Speaking of the dance floor, DJ Obie had an uncanny ability to hype up our guests like no other. People who I never expected to see dancing were out there, having the time of their lives. The atmosphere was electric, and the compliments about the party's liveliness are still pouring in. In short, our wedding wouldn't have been the same without DJ Obie Entertainment. His professionalism, talent, and passion for what he does shone through every step of the way, resulting in an unforgettable experience for us and our guests. If you want your event to be nothing short of amazing, I wholeheartedly recommend DJ Obie. You won't regret it.”

“We used for DJ Clife for our wedding 09/2023 and couldn't be happier! When looking for wedding DJs it can be tough to know what you're getting for your money. At first I was cautious as he is on the higher end of price ranges but noticed the higher ratings to match. I would say without a doubt DJ Clife Company was a perfect choice for us! We had several zoom meetings to discuss the vibe and creative view of our day and then focusing more on logistics and specifics for the night. Our wedding had some specific scheduling needs including a 15 minute dance session at the beginning of the reception, 2 dance numbers, choregraphed formal dances and other surprises. Clife Estores delivered on every detail that was needed from the beginning of the day until the end. Using the "Vibo" app helped us drop in songs and add information for our schedule to keep our conversations focused on what was needed - we enjoyed this process. Leading up to the wedding he was quick to respond to e-mails/texts with last minute questions or changed plans. My main concern was finding a DJ who truly mixed the music like you would hear in a club/party atmosphere with the best 2-3 minutes of the song played and rolling right into the next song. I asked for a constant variety of music genres so it didn't fall into that typical wedding format. Clife delivered some of the best music mixes I've ever heard! All of my guests commented on how great the music was and everyone from people who love to dance to those just watching all said how they really felt the party vibe. A couple commented that they planned to leave when the music slowed down and it never did so they stayed all night! He truly set the atmosphere in a positive direction and we had the best night of our lives! If you are unsure of the cost I can assure you he is worth the expense and truly created a great atmosphere for everyone! A few add-ons we used with DJ Clife: Room Uplighting, 4 moving spotlights and 2 sparklers - all enhanced the night! For anyone who has a lot of dancers in their guest list I would suggest looking into the LED dance floor with "Unique Events" in Cedar Rapids, IA. Pricey, but the DJ and dance floor were the most talked about from our guests.”

“Felix & Fingers was the best addition to my wedding! We had a BLAST. It’s the best mix between a live band and sing along karaoke (but you don’t want your uncle to get the mic, you know?). They did beautiful ceremony music, incredible sax jazz during cocktail hour to keep it classy. Then, they kept everyone engaged and entertained for the reception, from my aunt in a walker to my college friends twerking. We danced the night away but lost our voices from screaming along with the songs too. 10/10 you can’t go wrong with dueling pianos - DJs and wedding bands are out, Felix & Fingers is IN!”

“DJ DAS is one of our very favorite DJS. As a Venue Owner it is very important that the DJ our Booked Couples hire make their guests enjoy the evening. After 50 wedding+ we know that all DJS are not created equal. When we view our Booked Couples Wedding Planner they submit to us a few weeks before the wedding there are 2 places we quickly glance at to determine it is going to be a good event. The first is the caterer and the second is the DJ. If their DJ spot says "DJ DAS" then we know its going to be a good wedding reception. Because when DJ DAS is in the house everyone is happy!”
