One of the best decisions we made was hiring The DJ Firm. They were incredible and nearly every guest came up to me or my husband to compliment them! We hired DJ Jem and Rocky and could not have asked for anything better. The dance floor was packed all night and all age groups had a great time! Leading up to our wedding we had lots of communication from Ruben and Sarah about logistics and planning, and were able to meet with DJ Jem and felt confident he knew exactly what we were looking for and the vibe we wanted. I promise you will not regret hiring The DJ Firm - they are awesome.

For our big day, we wanted a couple things: 1. Our closest family and friends together - check. 2. Good food - check. 3. Everyone to have a good time - check. Number 3 was thanks in large part to the DJ Firm. Luckily, we've been to a good number of weddings/receptions in our lifetime. There always seems to be that "lull" at some point in the night, meaning people leave the dance floor and kind of collect themselves for a bit. Maybe have a cup of coffee - you get where I'm going. Throughout our night, we continuously looked over at the dance floor and everyone was just living their best life - for

What can I say that hasn't been echoed by other happy customers? The DJ Firm was *amazing* to work with. From day one, I felt listened to by Ruben and the rest of the DJ Firm team and after our first conversation, I knew it would be hard for other DJs to compete. Turns out, it was impossible. There was a lot of guidance and support throughout the whole process, which made the experience stress-free when it came to the music. My husband and I ended up going with DJ Daily, whose play sample on the DJ Firm website was like going home for us. I knew, immediately, that I was going to get the personal

Two days after our wedding and we are still getting calls from our guests about how we found this DJ and how amazing he was. He didn't just hit the play button like most DJs he mixed the music and it transitioned perfect. Erik you are amazing thank you. Your company and team are a real class A operation. You make weddings that much more special. Keep doing what your doing and thank you again.

The DJ Firm was awesome to work with. We hired them to MC and DJ our wedding reception and could not have been happier with how the night went. From the start, they were great at communicating and helping us plan the event, you could tell they've done this many times before and asked questions we hadn't even thought of. The day of, they coordinated all of the setup with our venue. Our DJ handled our introductions and speech schedule expertly. And then the music - they killed it. We provided some guidance and then let our DJ run with it and everything turned out great. The vibes at cocktail hour

We had the absolute best experience working with The DJ Firm! They were extremely organized in the planning process, leaving us feeling confident going into our wedding reception. We took a leap and mixed a DJ set with a saxophonist and drummer, all through The DJ Firm. SPIN, Rocky and DG Sax were incredible and exceeded our expectations!

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

The DJ Firm knows how to throw a party and an event! Even during this time, you can follow them on twitch and they have livestream Dj's I was lucky enough to go to the office last night and see the Dj live because of my friends birthday party so it was really great to see that. I've seen them before on different neighborhoods with some music just to get people through the day especially during this time. Highly recommend

We heard about DJ Firm doing free 30 minute pop ups around Chicago, so I contacted the firm and booked our pop up for last Sunday. It was amazing, the DJ's are awesome. They go all of the neighbors on their porches to bust out their best moves, strangers walking or driving down the street to do the same. We were so impressed with their professionalism, energy, music selection, and how engaged they were, it was infectious. My neighbors loved it, something we all needed amidst the sadness and sorrow all around us. Music is universal, and makes people feel good and forget their troubles

The DJ Firm is one of my favorite companies to work with! We hosted Eric Sampson and Edith Yokley for our chocolate event on February 21st and it couldn't have gone better! Our guests were consistently coming up to me asking where we found such an amazing duo and giving rave reviews. The music was exactly what we had envisioned and I couldn't be happier with their amazing service!

Eric and Ruben were very professional, answered all emails and calls quickly, and did an outstanding job at our corporate awards dinner. Eric played background dinner music, was the Voice of God for announcements and introductions, and was spot on with his timing for the walk up/off awards music. I will definitely use them again!

We had the DJ firm at our wedding, and DJ Sye was AMAZING!! Even before the wedding, we fell in love with Sye when we met with him when my mom was in town. He was extremely organized and kept us on track through the wedding process. We had all ages at the wedding, and he was a crowd favorite across ages! My friends dad made a point to come find me during the reception to tell me that She was the best wedding DJ he's ever heard - and he's been to a lot of weddings! Thanks for making our day awesome!

The DJ Firm, specifically DJ Sye Young and Ruben the account manager, were friendly, professional, and helped to make our fundraiser a success. The music was exactly what we wanted, and they both made the entire process seamless. This was not the first time we've partnered with them, and it definitely won't be the last. Thanks again for all of your efforts!

Hands down, The DJ Firm is the best! From the initial contact with the company, to the phone and in-person meetings with DJ Jem himself, this company was professional, punctual, and extremely helpful. DJ Jem was hands-on throughout the process, and he made me feel completely at ease with all of the planning. Our wedding reception was the best party ever, and I have DJ Jem to thank for that! Our friends and family have not stopped raving about the music, and how he moved from musical genre to genre, and era to era, so flawlessly, creating an amazing energy for all ages. My husband and I cannot stop

The DJ Firm was recommended to our company (a private equity firm) by the Director of Special Events for Rick Bayless' restaurants, so I had a feeling they'd be pretty legit!

Communicating with Eric (aka Jem) was easy, informative, and enjoyable. DJ Swiss Kid worked our party and was fantastic; professional, kind, and talented. Overall, we were beyond pleased with The DJ Firm and highly recommend them to anyone for any kind of celebration!

Eric and his team are amazing and fun. They're always willing to work with you to make sure whatever event you have is super successful, and they're willing to help you with your music selections if you have a very particular theme in mind.
