DJ Obie

5.0

Moline, IL
  • DJ
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Wheeling, 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 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.

Nick is not only a phenomenal human, but an amazing talented DJ. Nick knows the wedding industry, he helped guide us through every aspect of the day. He let us get as specific as we wanted for certain parts of the day, and then knew us well enough after our meeting that he handled the rest. He knew how to read the room, and kept everyone on the dance floor all night long. Seriously, the floor was PACKED! 3 weeks later, and I am getting so many compliments on my amazing DJ. He had HELPFUL relevant advice about the entire planning process. The most amazing hype man. His wife Susan did our photo booth and she was amazing as well. Such kind people. They genuinely cared about us and our wedding. He checked on us all night long, we love nick so much. Hands down the best. Do yourself a favor, and have Nick at your wedding.

Classy Jazz with that Old Hollywood charm. JB & the Showmance Band is a Jazz Ensemble covering a wide range of styles. Soulful melodies and fascinatin' rhythms will add magic to your event, party or session. JB & the Showmance Band features Broadway-caliber vocalists, songs that never get old and the top Jazz musicians in NY & LA and beyond.

Cheers!

The Showmance Band, a jazz ensemble with a penchant for covering a wide variety of music from the 1920s and Gatsby-themed tunes, recently graced the stage at a wedding event held at the Legacy Castle in New Jersey. As a vendor at the event, I had the distinct pleasure of witnessing firsthand the immense talent and showmanship of this exceptional band. It was clear from the outset that the Showmance Band had the crowd at their fingertips, as women were grabbing their husbands to dance and people were soaked in sweat from the sheer joy of dancing to the group's infectious rhythms. With their world-class musicianship, impeccable attire, and undeniable physical attractiveness, the players exuded an effortless cool that left the audience enraptured. What impressed me most about the Showmance Band, however, was the remarkable cohesion and tightness of their performance. They were clearly a well-oiled machine, each member contributing their unique musical voice to create a seamless, electrifying whole. This level of musicianship can only be achieved through years of dedicated practice and a deep understanding of one another's strengths and weaknesses. At the heart of this incredible ensemble is the band leader JB, whose spectacular performance was truly a sight to behold. With his captivating presence and dynamic energy, he commanded the stage with a confidence and grace that is the hallmark of a true musical master. In my years of attending live performances, I have never encountered a more exceptional and engaging live performer. In short, the Showmance Band is a jazz ensemble that represents the very pinnacle of musical excellence. Their performance at the Legacy Castle in New Jersey was nothing short of awe-inspiring, and I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone seeking an unforgettable musical experience.

Park Avenue Orchestra

5.0

Lake Zurich, IL
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Wheeling, IL

Inspiring Experiences With A Lifetime Of Memories! The Perfect Compliment To Your Wedding Reception! We offer a Complete Entertainment Package from a Seven Piece Band to a Twelve Piece Orchestra. We also provide Ceremony Musicians, Emcee Services, and a variety of Performance Packages for any size Wedding Reception. Our extensive experience will assist you with the outline planning for your Memorable Event. The Park Avenue Orchestra, featuring dynamic performances through high energy and enthusiasm. We invite you to visit our new website for all the exciting details of our services, at www.parkavenueorchestra.com

I truly don’t know where to begin to thank Park Avenue Orchestra for the most perfect wedding day we could have ever asked for. From the moment we booked them to the very last (encore) song on the dance floor, Hank and the Park Avenue Orchestra made everything easy, seamless, and most of all SO. MUCH. FUN! I have seen Park Ave perform at 2 other weddings, but nothing compares to booking them for your own wedding. There were many “best” things about working with Park Avenue, but something that was so unbelievably special to us was the custom songs they learned for us for our first dances. Our song as a couple is Shut Up and Dance by Walk the Moon and they created a slowed down version of it for us to dance our first dance to. It still brings me to tears when I watch our wedding video, it was just so beautiful and perfect. They also learned a Josh Groban song for my husband and his mom that was so special. For my dad and I, they not only learned a new song, but they created a transition from a nice slow Frank Sinatra song and went straight into Jump in the Line so we could start a conga line. It was AMAZING and such an awesome way to open the dance floor! However, the best part of the whole night was Park Avenue’s rendition of Shout. WOW. I don’t have enough words to describe the fun, energy, and EPIC DANCE PARTY that happens when Ricky Rainbow sings shout. Looking back at our wedding video, I think EVERYONE was on the dance floor! I actually got so “low” that I laid down on the dance floor in my wedding dress lol It was EPIC and a moment we will never forget!!! I think we’ve watched it about 25 times since we got our video haha Aside from Shout, the band brought my dad up to play drums, they brought my sister and I up to play cowbell…they really know how to get the crowd involved and make it a night full of the best memories. Hank made the wedding planning process so easy, simple and seamless. He thoroughly explained everything to us and made the planning process stress free. By far, he was our absolute best wedding vendor to work with and was our biggest advocate the day of the wedding- even bringing my mom a drink (or 2) when the venue didn’t quite do things right. He ensured our big day went perfectly and if there were any issues on the band/music/lighting/audio front, we never had to deal with it or even heard anything about it. He is a true professional! Thank you Park Avenue for creating the soundtrack to the best night of our lives, it wouldn’t have been the same without you!
