3rd Shift DJs

4.5

Elgin, IL
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Rockford, IL

3rd Shift DJs is an Elgin, IL-based DJ company that specializes in weddings and nuptial events. This budding business is owned and operated by Alex Dingmann, a DJ professional with a passion for adding thrill and excitement to parties through the sound of music. 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!

DJ Obie

5.0

Moline, IL
  • DJ
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Rockford, 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.

And the hard work, dedication and intention he puts into every aspect of his job to ensure that the excitement and joy of the night is remembered forever is literally unmatched. I’ve experienced DJ Obie’s work ethic over and over again for years and he has yet to disappoint and I’m sure he won’t ever! Great communicator, fairly priced and he always ensures his clients are happy!

We hired Funk Almighty to help celebrate a double 40th birthday party for my husband and I. They were amazing to work with and their musical talent is extraordinary! The band was extremely flexible and accommodating when our outdoor event turned to indoors, due to the weather. Wish we could have heard more of them! Can't wait to see them play nearby someday in the near future. If you are considering Funk Almighty for a wedding or private event, don't hesitate to book them! You won't regret it!

We had Veronica play for our wedding ceremony and it was absolutely perfect. She was so great to work with, had amazing communication, very friendly, and played exactly what we wanted. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a classy, personal touch of elegance for their ceremony instead of tacky speaker music. So glad we chose her for our special day

Premier Entertainment is by far the best DJ we’ve ever experienced at a wedding!! They were SO easy to contact with any questions or concerns we had. They went above and behind for our ceremony AND reception and were very accommodating to any last minute changes we made. I don’t know what we would’ve done without their help! We have nothing bad to say about Darrin or his wife - they are wonderful people! They took pictures for EVERYTHING which was SO fun to look through. They even got some videos of the ceremony and at the reception after our videographer left for the night. We will cherish the videos and pictures forever! We cannot recommend them enough!!!

We had a very positive experience with Max 10 Entertainment and highly recommend them for your wedding DJ!! Marcia is very professional, easy to work with, responsive, and we were very happy not only with the planning, Melvin and Marcia did an excellent job day of!! He played beautiful ceremony music and kept the night flowing perfectly! 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. We really enjoyed working with Melvin and Marcia and highly recommend Max 10 Entertainment!!

The Good Kidds

4.5

Chicago, IL
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Rockford, IL

A Chicago based DJ that has worked events in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, New York City, Miami, and Internationally. He likes to draw from from his roots in Houston, New Orleans and current home of Chicago to create a fun atmosphere for his clients. Graduate of Xavier University of Louisiana and Tulane University in New Orleans, this former social worker knows a good party.

DJ Chriss was so great to work with for my husband and I's wedding day. We really took our time to create a more modern wedding playlist from ceremony, to cocktail hour, and into reception as we wanted a more upbeat and lively atmosphere that is in sync with who we are as a couple rather than your standard classic wedding playlist we've heard over and over that we can't really dance to the way we would like. He listened to us and appreciated the list we sent over while understanding our taste and adding some songs to it throughout the wedding day that made for an amazing time that our guests can't stop talking about! -Kristin and Ryan Roberts 6.25.22
