Then when the big day finally came he made every moment perfect. We were on the dance floor all night long and had an absolute blast!

The best DJ service in town! Nicky and his team went above and beyond to make our special day even better than we could've ever envisioned it. They offer anything and everything you could possibly think of for your big day and work with you to customize every detail to fit your exact needs. Nicky is so easy to work with, he is super friendly, professional and it felt like l've known him for years. We had very specific needs for our string quartet, had multiple areas for sound and mics at our venue, we also wanted a specific song list for the DJ... and every single request was done to PERFECTION, thank you! We danced on the clouds, which was MAGICAL, definitely add this when booking Nicky and his team, a must! Also, I have to give a huge shoutout to DJ JBlendz (oe), he has to be the BEST DJ I've ever heard at a wedding! He was enthusiastic, played all of our requests, had the smoothest transitions, read the room better than anyone, and even added his own touch to make the night an absolute blast. Amazing guy too! Thank you to Nicky and his team for making our wedding day the greatest day of our life, we couldn't be happier!!

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!

Okyne Medialab, Inc.

4.5

Chicago, IL
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,750

Okyne Medialab is a contemporary wedding DJ business based in Austin, Texas and Chicago, Illinois. This entertainment company strives to bring a fresh perspective to the DJ industry. While still taking the lead on the night, these DJs will remain true to your vision and expectations.

A few days before our wedding, I got a message from Al saying our DJ had COVID and that they were going to send someone else. I was super bummed because I had loved our original pick (DJ Marcus) who did a fantastic job DJing our friends wedding in 2021. The replacement DJ (DJ Jose) called us right away to review all the details of the night with us. I was still hesitant, but was beginning to feel more comfortable during the conversation. On wedding day, DJ Jose was kind, professional, punctual, and ABSOLUTELY KILLED IT on the dance floor!! No one sat down for the entire night and guests are STILL raving about DJ Jose! Many guests have even requested Jose's song selections for the entire day (ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception) because they loved it so much! Props to Okyne for having such talented DJs that can pick up events for each other and still do a fantastic job. Al was very responsive and easy to work with, as well! Smart choice for any couple that is looking for a party on the dance floor

Groove is in the Heart, and especially DJ Evan, made our wedding experience even more perfect than we ever could have imagined. Throughout the entire process DJ Evan was there to help us plan what we wanted and ensured that everything was prepared for our big day. He was so easy to contact and communicate with. We were worried that it would be complicated to plan our Chicago suburb wedding from Baltimore but it was a breeze with Groove is in the Heart. The day of our wedding was a dream because of DJ Evan. He completely understood the vibe and the mood of what we were wanting. Everyone complimented how great the music was and how he was able to get EVERYONE on the dance floor - even our grandmas!! I can not, and will not, ever stop talking about how happy I am that we found Groove is in the Heart DJS. Thank you thank you thank you for being part of the reason why our special day was so perfect.
