Fantastic all around service!
Our wedding celebration was elevated to great heights thanks to the incredible talent of Guys on the Radio. We had a suite of services from them and all were impeccable. We used Guys on the Radio for their DJ, Flash Foto Booth, Totally Kreative Video for videography, Sisters Stress Free Planning, and Adam Jamsa as an officiant., which was so incredibly convenient to have all together. This review will cover the first two, as the rest I have reviewed separately and were all phenomenal (and it will save space typing)
Kevin Kramer was our DJ. He was fantastic to work with and has a deep knowledge of musicality. We had an alternative wedding, so had a different style of music than is typical for a wedding played for our day, and Kevin did a phenomenal job seamlessly blending music that we wanted to play with crowd-pleasing hits, keeping the dance floor alive and our guests thoroughly entertained. I had guests comment on how it was the best music they had had at a wedding and was music they would have wanted to hear themselves. Kevin’s professionalism, responsiveness, and ability to read the room created for an unforgettable experience. Kevin truly made our wedding reception a party to remember, and we wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone in search of a phenomenal DJ.
We also had Kevin perform live for our cocktail hour and it was a beautiful touch to the overall ambiance. His performance was top notch and he has a great variety of songs to curate his live setlist with. We were thoroughly impressed and guests loved the entertainment while enjoying cocktail hour.
Finally, we had the Flash Foto Photobooth as well and guests were using it all night. They came with great props, a modern photobooth setup, and we loved that there were instant print outs for everyone and we got a book with all the photos and signed by everyone that took a photo plus USB with digital versions at the end. The entertainment and sentimental value from the photobooth made it well worth it.
I would highly recommend the Guys on the Radio for all of their services for anyone looking for convenience with extremely high quality professional output! -

During our wedding, we utilized JC--owner of Guys on the Radio--as our DJ, along with several branches of his company, including the Sisters Stress Free Planning, Flash Foto Photobooth, and the live Trio. Words cannot even begin to express just how thrilled we were to work with JC and his team! They made the entire day sooooo special and one we will truly NEVER forget :) This was made possible through several Facetime meetings with JC to discuss various details, texts with Kevin concerning our live playlist, and the Sisters emailing/calling to coordinate our arrangement details to ensure they were able to maximize their tear-down time. Wedding planning is not the easiest task, but Stress Free Event Group: Guys on the Radio 100% earned their name and deserve every bit of praise they have coming their way! Well done everyone and thank you for the forever memories :)
In addition to the entire team, if you decide to utilize JC as your personal DJ, please know that his second-first dance finale is one that you and your spouse will NEVER forget! -

From my first phone call with JC, I knew I was going to hire Guys on the Radio to DJ our wedding. Their email reminders and planning website were helpful at pulling out all the info they needed to make the day go smoothly. Upon meeting JC, I knew we made the right choice. He and his team are truly there to make sure you have the best day. He incorporated our eclectic mix of tunes effortlessly throughout the night. They even worked with us through a few quirky requests and made sure it all fit within our timeline. We received many compliments from guests on the music and the dance floor was lively all night. A sweet little bonus was what they call the “second first dance” which included a recording of our vows mixed with music. It was such a sweet little moment he created! We also took advantage of the Sisters Planning add-on package. It was HANDS DOWN the best money we spent. Ashley and her team did so much more than set up and take down decorations. She helped our rehearsal and ceremony go smoothly. She checked in on us and delivered drinks, offered to bring a second plate of food during dinner, and packed away everything as neatly as it arrived. Overall, they deserve 10 out of 5 stars and the only bad part was that the night seemed to end too soon! -

Jon did an absolutely amazing job at our wedding in January at Starved Rock. He was very easy to work with, flexible with changes made and kept the party alive! I relied on him to pick the last song of the night and he couldn't have done a better job. It was the most PERFECT ending to the best day ever. I also had Kevin for acoustic hour, which was amazing. Jon was nice enough to record all of our speeches, acoustic hour and even take some video's of the night so that we could cherish those moments! I highly recommend them! -

Marsha Sent on 06/13/2018We found Guys on the Radio at the Starved Rock Bridal Expo. We opted for the Diamond package which included a costume monogram, photo montage with 3 dvd copies, and 16 uplights. They also offered officiant services, which we opted for. We wanted JC to officiant our wedding ceremony and MC our event. He did a fantastic job! At the end of the night he had put together a special recording of our first dance song along with lines taken from our ceremony and best man & maid of honor speeches. It was so sweet. They also offer services for stress free set up and tear down with the Sisters. We did all our own decorations and centerpieces, and the sisters set it all up and tore it down for us and pack it up and placed it into our room. It was perfect! They handled everything so that we could relax and enjoy the night. We highly recommend Guys on the Radio! They are AWESOME!Guys on the Radio's reply:
Thank you Marsha and Matt for letting us be a part of your special day! It was a joy to work with you. We have to give props to the staff at Starved Rock for helping us knock out some of the setup as well! Thank you for the nice review! -JC -

Cierra Sent on 10/08/2017We loved working with Shap and Kevin! They played great music that kept everyone on the dance floor! They were super flexible with changes. They have an amazing online portal that you go to fill out most of your information for the wedding. So if you think of something at 3am you can log on and make a change. Also, I would recommend going with the diamond package! It came with amazing uplighting, unlimited time, a beautiful personalized monogram light and an amazing slideshow of you and your love. They work closely with you the day of your wedding to make sure that things run smoothly and as close to on time as possible. I will always recommend guys on the radio. My husband and I are so happy that we chose them to share our special day with.

Amanda Sent on 07/24/2017These guys were very helpful in picking songs and sending me links for ideas. I was able to Facetime for a meeting since we weren't next door to them. We had a slight hiccup in the beginning but JC handle it very professionally and I really appreciated it. I would definitely recommend them! -
User2670347 Sent on 07/01/2016Two weeks before the wedding, we sat down with Shap and he made sure he could pronounce names of the bridal party and to get final details ready. The online website was very nice to use as it had examples of top songs to choose for for mother/son dance, garter toss, etc. We used Guys on the Radio for uplighting and a custom light as well, that looked amazing. Shap was excellent at getting people on the dance floor. I highly recommend Guys on the Radio! -
User2211532 Sent on 07/05/2015These guys are absolutely great in every way. Easy to get ahold of and work with. Also, great at keeping the party going. I've been to a number of weddings that they did, including my brother's, and they are always wonderful and fun. -
User1922633 Sent on 11/15/2014Guys on the Radio are amazing DJs. The knew what music to play when to keep the party going, and had wonderful ideas for special dances. I would highly recommend them. They were so great to work with! -
User2063210 Sent on 03/10/2015The ONLY issue we had with them is they mixed up the songs for the introductions of the bridal party, other than that they were great. We had two DJ's that night and we definitely needed both of them. Jon even got us all drinks during dinner to make sure everything was going perfect!
