With years of experience under his belt, Alex helps newlyweds across the country celebrate their new chapter, creating personalized playlists that have everyone dancing all the way home.

My wife and I contacted Alex as we found his business on weddingwire. Once we reached out, Alex responded fairly quickly and a call was scheduled. He was very patient with us and very transparent of how he runs things as the DJ. DJ’s can really make or break your wedding and we wanted to ensure that we had someone good lined up. Alex was very specific on what his expectations were, which really put us at ease. During the planning process, he was extremely helpful in helping us make some decisions regarding what to have and what not to have. Alex surpassed both of our expectations on the actual day. The wedding flow was extremely smooth and he worked with us for our playlist. I would 15/10 recommend Alex. He is an amazing DJ for all your needs. Thanks again Alex!

Words cannot describe what an AMAZING DJ Jeff is and was for our event (including both the wedding ceremony and reception)! He was so thoughtful in the planning (made the planning process so easy) and collaboration with us prior to our wedding and was such a positive presence for our special day. Not only was he an exceptional DJ for our wedding in August 2023, he also helped plan the flow of the night, was a super star MC and ensured the timing of speeches and all activities flowed smoothly. Even though some speeches went a little longer than anticipated, he was able to get the evening back on schedule and was not flustered at all, which helped keep us relaxed. He had such patience with us, as we had a large gap between the ceremony and reception and he was so friendly about it and made the entire day so perfect. He was so easy to work with and friendly to talk to through the whole process and the day of the wedding that he made us feel so at ease and relaxed. We had some odd requests for songs (with the bride being a big Disney fan), but he was able to find all the songs we asked for with no judgment. He was so enthusiastic and up beat for all of the introductions at the reception and are moments we will never forget, especially when being introduced as Mr. and Mrs. Brown for the first time. He helped get the bridal party and groomsman in line before the introductions so everyone was aware of what would be happening, which was helpful! He provided a Photo Booth for guests, which they had so much fun in and send all the photos to us via email so we were able to have the photos since guests took 2 strips of the photos from the photo booth. He stayed in the back during the ceremony, as not to be in the way of photos during the ceremony, and the music during the ceremony all played beautifully, clearly, and perfectly on time as discussed in our timeline. Additionally, the microphones he provided for the Rabbi and Bride/Groom when sharing vows were great quality and very clear for guests to hear. We had most of the guests on the dance floor the whole night and there wasn't a point in the night the dance floor was empty except when the party was over and nobody wanted to leave because they were having so much fun! We had so many compliments from guests and they mentioned Jeff was the best DJ they have ever seen and the music was fantastic. The best part about it was that he really read our crowd. We had an absolute blast! We feel so lucky that he was our DJ and highly recommended for your wedding or event. We have found our DJ for any future events that come our way. We wish we could do it all over every weekend!! Thank you again so much, Jeff for being the best DJ, MC, and person ever :)

  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Carol Stream, 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.

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.

In planning for our wedding, Marcia has a questionnaire that we reviewed together and he had great suggestions for the schedule, realistic times for things, songs in areas we were stuck, and all of that was very helpful! Throughout the night, they kept the guests informed as needed, but was not an overbearing DJ, which is what we were looking for.

She pursued her formal education at the University of Michigan and DePaul University, where she earned her bachelors and masters degrees in violin performance. She has studied with many of the world's top teachers and performers, and is currently teaching 95 students of her own. Anna looks forward to working with you to create the perfect event!

Awarded Best of Zola
Anna is an incredibly talented violinist! We hired Anna to play violin during the ceremony at our wedding. We were initially only going to have the DJ play instrumental music during our ceremony, but ended up deciding to have a violinist instead and it was the best decision! We still had the DJ play some piano back tracks, but Anna blew away our guests. One close friend came up to my mom after the ceremony and said "as soon as the violinist touched her bow to the instrument, I had goosebumps from my feet to my head." Don't hesitate to hire Anna! Nothing quite compares to the "live violin" flare :)

We hired the duo to play our ceremony. Their modern spin on folk and bluegrass music set the perfect tone for our summery outdoor wedding. They went above and beyond by learning and performing a song I had written for my husband. I highly recommend Gussied!

Cuarteto Guataca

5.0

New York, NY
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Carol Stream, IL for additional fees

Bassist and bandleader Josh Levine got his start in the professional music business busking in SoHo with The Flying Neutrinos in ’93, so when NYC shut down in Spring of 2020, he capitalized on his experience as a street performer and began to play regularly in the parks of NYC with percussionist and sonero, Jainardo Batista, renowned flutist Itai Kriss making his debut on Cuban trés guitar, and María Raquel on vocals and minor percussion. Before long, the quartet had generated some buzz, several venues hired them to play outdoors and pianist Gabriel Chakarji and Grammy winning flutist and vocalist Jeremy Bosch became staples of the group.

Cuarteto Guataca is AMAZING. Every single member of this group is an absolute joy to work with, and their talent is beyond words! Cuarteto was our wedding band, and I don’t think anyone sat down the entire reception! Hire them now!!
