I had the pleasure of attending my son's wedding this past weekend, and I am beyond thrilled to share my genuine appreciation for the outstanding services provided by Nicky Avalo Studios. As a fellow wedding photographer, I held high expectations, and I can honestly say that Nicky exceeded every single one of them. The DJ was nothing short of phenomenal. He worked hard and kept the energy soaring and the dance floor packed throughout the entire evening. It was an absolute blast! The Photo Booth, which was an absolute hit among the guests. The attendant brought was a lot fun and there was a line of people all night. But what truly stood out was Nicky Avalo himself. From our very first consultation to the day of the event, Nicky proved to be incredibly responsive, accommodating, and went above and beyond to ensure that every single one of our needs was met.

We were absolutely thrilled with Funk Almighty at our wedding, especially with their incredible rendition of a Taylor Swift song!!! When we mentioned our love for Taylor Swift, the band went above and beyond and created an entire medley of her hits. This wasn’t just another wedding band playing covers, it became a whole show that added their unique funk twist. I can’t begin express how cool it was to watch our request come to life like that!! Daryl and the team's ability to transform our simple request into such an elaborate and memorable piece was incredible. Easily the highlight of the evening. And it was such a personalized touch that made our special day even more unforgettable. Aside from that working with them was a breeze. The rest of the night was great too but I really can’t overstate how much we appreciate them for going above and beyond with our request. That’s true talent and creativity so we can't recommend them enough for their exceptional service and making our wedding one of a kind! *Original review posted on theknot.com https://www.theknot.com/marketplace/funk-almighty-chicago-il-2062080

I can't say enough good things about working with Todd! I just got married October 14th, 2023 so we recently worked with him. Throughout the entire planning process he was super responsive and accommodating. I am a type A personality so I had put together an entire timeline of our wedding along with a list of songs to play and a do not play list. My husband likes grunge/Depeche Mode and I like Pop music- somehow Todd was able to play a good mix of everything that we wanted. I also had Persian music to mix in that I provided to Todd a few days before the wedding (my dad got it to me very last minute) and Todd had no issues with it. My only complaint from my guests is that he played so many AMAZING songs back to back that they didn't have enough time to breathe because they wanted to dance to every song- what a great complaint from our guests!!! I also didn't have a typical Coordinator or Wedding Planner which put me in a really bad situation- there were a lot of things that were forgotten because I didn't have a lead person. Todd saw the gaps and stepped in to help me every step of the way. He is such a great person. Both my husband and I were honored to have him with us on our big day! Looking for DJs can be really difficult and stressful. Take it from a 2023 Bride- JUST HIRE TODD. You won't be disappointed!
