He had held several nightclub residencies in the city of Chicago, an experience that enhances his performance at weddings. Today, DJ Persist has expanded his services to include A/V and Photo Booth services to become a well-known, award winning company. DJ Persist strives to give you the best in customer service by listening to your needs to provide for you an unforgettable event!

Our company takes great pride in not being an "ordinary DJ company". We are extremely passionate about what we do and that is why we NEVER just sit back and just play music. We truly believe in the successful execution of your event, we coordinate with all of your vendors so you do not have to worry about anything! When it comes to rocking the dancefloor, we know what we are doing! With our knowledge and talent, we are able to read the crowd and actually mix live, just like in a nightclub–no cheese, no corny games, just extremely fun celebrations.

    DJ Persist, Jesse, did a phenomenal job for our entire wedding. He was extremely easy to work with, very responsive, and has a user friendly platform. From the ceremony, to cocktail hour, to the dance floor. He kept the mood fun and the party lively! We have continued to receive compliments on how that was the best wedding with the best dance floor anyone has ever experienced. We explained to Jesse that we had a very diverse crowd attending, which required a diverse selection of music. He delivered beautifully! People sang during dinner and kept the dance floor full. Thank you for a fun time and a memorable event!

    We were thrilled with the services provided by DJ Persist for our wedding. From the start, their communication was great - they were highly responsive and worked closely with us to understand our vision for the day. On the wedding day, DJ Persist's performance was amazing, perfectly setting the vibes and energy we were going for. They helped keep us on track with the wedding timeline and made sure the dance floor was packed all night long. We loved DJ Persist's energy and they definitely helped make our special day even more memorable. We highly recommend them to any couples looking for an exceptional DJ for their wedding.
