  • Wow. What a party!

    We were absolutely thrilled with how our Drew tailored the music to the vibe of our crowd. He was super adaptive to every last-minute change, and honestly, his acoustic guitar sets for our ceremony and cocktail hour were just perfect. We got so many compliments from our guests, and he was truly a joy to work with.

    Drew with Crimson events was an absolute pleasure to work with! From the first zoom meeting, to booking, to the night of the wedding, he really showed that he cared about making the day great. He provided sound systems including mics for ceremony and reception, we added string lighting to our dance floor, and he had up lighting for the dance floor that really made the space pop. He met with us at our venue for a 6 month walkthrough, which helped conceptualize the DJ capabilities. He also utilizes a planning app where you can upload all your music, which made the collaboration process super easy. We received many compliments from our guests about the good mix of oldies and new music. We really enjoyed working with Drew & would definitely work with him again in the future!

    Wow! Drew knocked it out of the park for us from the very beginning. He is easy to talk to, and understood our needs and our music style flawlessly. His planning app made it super easy for us to add our music requests and style at our own pace. He captured our style so well and everyone was raving and had so much fun. He hope to work with him again in the future and will definitely recommend him to friends and family.

    Drew was one of the highlights of our wedding! He brought such a sense of calm to our day. He is a DJ that is there for you; it is YOUR day with Drew which I can't emphesis enough. We appreciate how organized and attentive he was during the planning process. It was very customizable -- leave it to him or plan songs yourself -- and the portal was easy to use and during our live touch bases he prompted us for things we wouldnt have thought of. He was a wonderful MC for the day. Our guests did NOT leave the dance floor and we got so many compliments about how well he mixed the music and was in tune with the vibe of the crowd. He anticipated our needs and helped the night run perfectly smoothly. You can tell Drew truly cares for his clients and loves being a part of making their wedding equally intimate for the couple and a blast of a party. You need assistants, Drew, because you're going to be a top wedding DJ in Chicago!
