    Take it from a Seasoned Planner - Definitely Hire The DJ Firm!!

    I have worked with multiple, various DJs and I always enjoy working with the DJ Firm! Talk about a professional, hard working, collaborative team, they are always on top of their game and bring the energy to any wedding or event. The most recent wedding I worked with DY Sye and he had everyone of all ages on the dance floor the whole time with his remixes, high energy and good vibes!

    From DJ Sye, to DJ JEM to their enable Off The Cuff you can't go wrong! The talent in remixing your favorite songs and their ability to read the crowd and determine what is needed at the moment will leave you speechless. You won't have to worry about a thing if you go with this team, take my word for it! I will continue to recommend The DJ Firm to all of my couples or clients!

    12/1/2023 Wedding

    The process from start to finish was easy and flawless. We had Hannah as our Dj and she was absolutely amazing! She not only followed our requests, but threw in her own vibe as well to make our wedding night amazing. Our guests mention her every time our wedding is brought up! We would recommend Hannah and any of The DJ Firms services!

    Best DJ Experience

    If you are planning your wedding and looking for a DJ, book The DJ Firm. There is a reason they have nothing but 5 star reviews! My husband and I had DJ Jem and he was phenomenal. He listened to our needs, got everybody on the dance floor, and most importantly, he noticed when people enjoyed a certain genre and continued playing it for a little while. The entire process was flawless—from speaking with Ruben about what we could expect and our options, to getting to know Eric (Jem), and setting up our final details with Sarah—it couldn’t have gone better. Our photographer/videographer have been doing weddings for 10+ years and they said DJ Jem was the best DJ they have ever witnessed in their career. We couldn’t agree more. Actual footage of everyone enjoying themselves thanks to The DJ Firm!

    Very talented

    DJ Jem (Eric) is so beyond talented no wonder he runs his own business. My guests are still talking about how great he was. From start to finish the process was easy and the online portal makes choosing songs seamless. The Photo Booth was perfect and having an attendant is a game changer. No feedback they were perfect!

    Dj sye is the best

    DJ SYE IS THE BEST! He turned our wedding into a true night club that our friends and family are still talking about! He went above and beyond to make our day truly special. He helped us navigate venue restrictions and helped us find a solution that worked for everyone. He gave us ideas and suggestions to get the party started that all our friends have already said they plan on stealing! The entire flow of the night was perfect, starting with an amazing entrance and dance set, which was something people said they had 'never seen before and got everyone in the mood to party'. He then layered on amazing song after amazing song. Other guest recounts said, 'I never got a chance to go to the bathroom, because every time I thought would be a good time to go, he played another banger and I couldn't leave the dance floor'! Then, after DJ Sye finished his amazing set at our venue, he CAME TO THE AFTERPARTY! He came with us, brought a CO2 gun and DJ'd a set at our afterparty venue. He was EXACTLY what we wanted for our wedding! All our of friends have already asked for his information. One friend even had the DJ Firm already booked for her upcoming wedding and said, 'seeing DJ Sye at ours gave her such a sense of relief and confidence that hers will be just as amazing'! THANK YOU DJ SYE, SARAH AND THE EVERYONE AT THE DJ FIRM! YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!!!!!

    15/10 !!!!!!

    All I can say is that hiring The DJ Firm for our wedding was one of the best decisions we've ever made. DJ Daily and his crew had our guests on the dance floor the entire night. Our guests were raving about him during the wedding and the entire next day. Even before our wedding, Sarah was so helpful in the planning process and what to expect. Highly highly recommend The DJ Firm for your wedding!!

    If you want a HYPE dance floor - this vendor is for you!

    When I said I wanted a club and festival vibe for our wedding DJ Mayhem DELIVERED. Not only were we super impressed but so were our guests. From his song selections, to his transitions and his ability to read the crowd - he exceeded our expectations. We had so many people say that was the most fun wedding dance floor they had ever been to. He was super attentive to us and I didn't want the night to end. Thank you DJ Mayhem!!!

    A memorable wedding experience

    Absolutely perfect evening. I can't count the amount of people that said it was the best DJ they've seen at a wedding. He had the place rocking and helped set the tone for a great time. Working with Sye was great as he was able to weave in what I liked/preferred while sending it to the next level. He exceeded all of our expectations. I will be keeping an eye out for events he does around the city because I will definitely be attending. Sarah was also a pleasure to work with leading up to the event. We appreciated her help, guidance, and quick replies. Truly was a great time and will be suggesting Sye and the DJ Firm to any and everyone.

    Absolutely Perfect

    We hired DJ Sye Young as our reception DJ and Patrick Jasper as our ceremony musician. I cannot begin to explain how perfect they both were, and how much easier they made our day.

    We had Patrick alternate between guitar and saxophone and it set such a relaxing mood for our outdoor wedding at The Honeycomb. He is an extraordinarily talented musician. He even learned a new song just for us. Between Patrick and the audio tech, we didn't have to worry about anything during our ceremony.

    DJ Sye Young had the dance floor packed the entire night. I don't know how to describe it, but he is absolutely different from your standard wedding DJ. He has an innate ability to inject life into the party. He involves the crowd, he plays hit after hit after hit, he jumps between genres, and he never stays on one song for too long. He has his finger on the pulse of the crowd all night. On a personal level, Sye is the ultimate hype man and will make you feel like the coolest person in the world at your wedding. He's someone you just want to be around because you know he's got your back and that's going to make you feel completely comfortable. He even showed up to our ceremony at The Honeycomb to see how we were doing before he set up for the reception at Galleria Marchetti (which is several miles away from The Honeycomb). Looking back, we think he was the most important vendor that we booked for our wedding.

    The DJ Firm is worth every penny. People will talk about your wedding every time they see you if you book The DJ Firm. Do everything you can to make sure they're behind the booth at your wedding. You will not regret it.

    So much fun!

    It was an absolute pleasure working with The DJ Firm for our wedding. Sye provided the vibe we were looking for and our guests had a blast. Our guests raved about how much fun they had at our wedding and how amazing the DJ was. I highly recommend The DJ Firm and Sye!

    Incredible!

    DJ Zel absolutely nailed it from start to finish. Super professional, fun, responsible, and kept everyone on the dance floor - was everything we could have wanted and more. They even made special accommodations to play in not two, but three separate rooms for us. Planning with Sarah was super fun and easy, and their website/planning software and packages are so well organized. Thank you for a wonderful experience. I don't know how you would go with any other company.

    Amazing experience

    Sye & team were incredible throughout our wedding weekend & in the planning process. They went above and beyond throughout the entire process and even worked with our band to play off one another which all of our guests have RAVED about.

    From planning to MCing and to finishing off the night as our dj we really could not have imagined a better experience than with the DJ firm!

    The DJ Firm - Wedding Planner Perspective

    Working with The DJ Firm as a Wedding Planner was an amazing experience! They were extremely communicative with both myself and the couple to ensure we were all on the same page leading up to the big day, which made the planning process simple and smooth. Their team is very organized, and full of helpful tips to make the day-of experience seamless and stress-free for everyone!

    DJ Jem was so incredible to have on the wedding day as a part of the vendor team! He was of course a very talented DJ, but also a great MC who helped guide the event along, without being cheesy or overly chatty. He had the dance-floor packed the entire reception, and it was an EPIC night for Nicole + Tom! HIGHLY recommend working with them for your wedding if you are looking for an awesome and high-energy party that keeps your guests dancing until the lights come on!

    If you want a party, go with the DJ Firm!

    Working with The DJ Firm for our wedding was incredible. From the start, we were taken care of with top notch service from Ruben and Sarah. They kept everything moving and confirmed all the details leading up to the big day. For the wedding day, DJ Swiss Kid was AMAZING! He was very professional and read the room so well. We got so many compliments about our DJ from guests. We also loved being able to work with the DJ Firm for up-lights and photo booth (as a take home favor). A one stop shop for wedding entertainment! Highly recommend the DJ Firm!!

    DJ Firm does not disappoint!!!

    We hired DJ Firm for DJ, photobooth, and cold sparklers and we loved them all! We had DJ SYE and he was wonderful! We received so many compliments from our guests about him. They were on the dance floor all night and he was able to accommodate music for all generations. He was also a very personable and interactive DJ, which we appreciated. The photobooth was a hit as well! It was really easy to use and you could get as many prints as you wanted. We received a digital copy at the end too and it was fun to see everyone’s pictures. Adding cold sparklers was a MUST for us and it really added a wow factor to our wedding reception! Thank you DJ SYE and DJ Firm for making our wedding a memorable experience for us and our guests!

    Wonderful live artist & DJ!

    The DJ Firm really enhanced our wedding day! With Adia on the violin during the ceremony and cocktail hour, and DJ Daily working throughout the entire event, it was an awesome experience to have them with us on our special day! They were such a great team to work with and made our wedding at the Chicago Botanic Garden so memorable!

    The most epic night ever!

    If you are like my husband and I, we NEVER wanna leave the dance floor when we are at any wedding- so we knew for ours- the DJ had to be absolutely EPIC! We were referred to the DJ firm, specifically SYE YOUNG, because of the amazing experience our friends had had with him! And THANK GOD we listened! The whole team over at the DJ firm were absolutely stellar! Ruben had a ton of calls with us and we were always 100% in communication with him over anything we needed at all. It’s super cool because they have a portal you put all of your special songs, song requests, and dedication songs in! It’s all so organized, and legit if we ever had any questions, Ruben was on it! Not only did we have great communication with him, but we got to video chat quite a few times with Sye himself! He actually made a special call with us because I wanted a specific part of a song played for when I walked down the isle, and for when we did our grand entrance. Talk about not feeling like there was any loose ends left untied- everything we wanted was exactly what we got! The wedding was absolutely insane- I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many ppl on a dance floor at one time- he really read the crowd!! It’s weeks later and ppl are still buzzing about how amazing our DJ was and we actually even had a friend cancel her DJ and loose out on their down payment just so they could switch to the DJ firm!! We cannot recommend them enough!!! The customer service and the actual talent of Sye was unparalleled to any wedding we have ever been to! We can’t wait to have more events with them!!! Thank you so much again to Sye, Ruben and the DJ firm!!!!!!

    You need the dj firm!

    Such a wonderful experience! I literally had no idea where to start with DJs for our wedding, but someone recommended The DJ Firm to me and it was the first and only call I made! They are the best! Ruben (Event Account Manager) and Eric (DJ Jem) are SO wonderful and nice and extremely organized. We very much enjoyed working with them throughout the entire process and Eric made certain the music at our wedding was perfect. We had so much fun and all of our guests did as well! I highly recommend The DJ Firm! If I ever need a DJ again, I’ll definitely be using them! Thank you to everyone at The DJ Firm for being a part of our day and making it so wonderful!

    Truly Amazing !

    We are so happy we went with The DJ Firm, especially DJ Daily for our wedding. They were very easy to work with and made sure the music was exactly what we wanted. We wanted to make it a big party atmosphere and that is exactly what DJ Daily provided. The dance floor was packed the entire night until the very last song. We received so many compliments from our guests on how awesome our DJ was. We would highly recommend The DJ Firm and thank you for making our reception perfect.

    Highly Recommend!

    We worked with DJ Daily from the DJ Firm for our wedding and loved working with the entire group! The DJ Firm came recommended through our venue, and we were so pleased with the overall experience. From the preliminary phone calls with DJ Sye, meetings prior to the event, to the actual wedding, the DJ Firm went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and that our guests were entertained. The DJ Firm worked so well with our venue and the other vendors. Thank you DJ Firm for an amazing night!

    Eric was awesome

    We booked the DJ Firm, specifically Eric, early in our wedding planning because we loved his work at another wedding we attended (our brother's). Not only was Eric professional and organized, his execution on the day of our wedding really helped make the day so successful. Thank you!

    DJ Sye took our wedding from great to amazing

    We were lost when trying to find a DJ since we were planning from out of town, and luckily our planner recommended the DJ firm. After taking a look at the DJ's I knew Sye should be our guy and saying that was a great decision is a huge understatement. There were so many recommendations he had to help make our day go smooth that had nothing to do with music, and had a relatively small wedding of 120 people from all over the country on the dance floor the entire time. He was not cheesy, kept energy high, and many guests asked for his info because of how memorable he made the night. Thanks for everything!!! We used them for ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception.

    Best DJs Around

    Cannot say enough great things about The DJ Firm & DJ Sye! I didn't have a lot of 'must-have's' for my wedding, but the one I was dead-set on was having an off-the-chain, non-stop dance party on the dance floor. I knew I didn't want a typical wedding DJ, I could NOT hear SHOUT one more time after attending 10 weddings last year... so after talking to a few friends, The DJ Firm's name came up and I reached out. I was so happy chatting with Sye leading up to the day because he really understood what I was going for. You have as much control as you want over which songs are played because they have a client portal (so cool, great for control-freaks, like me). Come wedding night, our dance floor was JUMPIN'. People didn't want to leave to dance floor in case they'd miss the next awesome song that was played. We had the time of our lives and that is due to Sye being a master at reading the crowd, and playing what the people want. Couldn't have asked for a better night! Thanks DJ Firm!

    Great DJ for a crowd that loves to dance

    The DJ Firm delivered a party for us! Carl was great with leading our reception. If you want an upbeat, positive, and high energy reception they are it. Very patient and kind to work with throughout the planning process as well.

    The DJ Firm is the best wedding DJ in Chicago!


    We cannot say enough great things about Kid Clay and The DJ Firm. They are the best wedding DJs in Chicago. We could not get our guests to stop dancing. Eric was so great to work with in preparation of our big day. He was super organized and made sure Kid Clay had everything about our ceremony ready to go. They made our night one to remember!
