Our wedding guests are STILL talking about Todd and what an amazing job he did for us and our wedding a whole month later. My husband and I knew next to nothing about wedding music or what a DJ even does. We had no idea how much work a DJ actually does to ensure the whole day runs smoothly and all the announcements are made and all that stuff that people sometimes forget about. We picked only a handful of songs for the ceremony and reception and he did all the rest which made it really easy for us. Todd is not just a fantastic DJ, he is the nicest person. He ended up staying a whole hour later than what we booked him for because our catering service was late and it pushed everything back. He not only calmed the chaos of these unfortunate circumstances but he ensured everyone was still having a good time and (this needs to be repeated) HE STAYED LATE! Besides getting married, hiring Todd was the best decision my husband and I have ever made!

  • Starts at $995
  • Serves Elmwood Park, IL

I started DJ' ing as a kid with old fashion turntables and records about 30 years ago preforming at various dances, parties and events. I became a police officer 20 years ago but just couldn't give up my passion for DJ'ing , so I started up my own DJ company in 2010 and currently "patrol the streets by day and DJ by night" so to speak. Because I have a stable income source, I don't DJ just to make money , and its "not just a job to me". It's my passion! As a result, your event gets 110% of all my effort and attention because I love what I do and care that my clients are always satisfied.

Five-O DJ/Tom was the BEST!!! I reached out for quotes for our wedding and he was so responsive, detailed, and helpful. Once we started working together, it was clear that he was a very experienced DJ and a true professional. He also helped us with SO many ceremony planning items. I was considering hiring a Day of Coordinator, and I totally did not need one because Tom handled everything perfectly. Five-O DJ did our ceremony music as well as cocktail hour and the full reception, and I honestly expected to pay a lot more considering how many services he provided! I wanted our cocktail and dinner hours to sound like a live mariachi band was there, and he made it happen. His commentary was fun and set a great tone for the reception. He kept everyone in the wedding party organized and on time for all of the events and speeches. We even received customized remixes of our entrance songs so that the timing of everything flowed beautifully! We will definitely be hiring Five-O DJ again for future parties and events! I highly recommend.

We always ranked the music as the number one priority for our wedding, and we’re so glad we entrusted David Rothstein Band to bring our party to life. Planning a wedding during Covid had many challenges, including not being able to see the band live, but thankfully, David has so many live videos available where we can see the entertainment his band delivers day in and day out. Those videos, along with David’s passion for his work, made us confident to chose his team to make our day special. For our wedding, we had a classical duo during the ceremony, a pianist during cocktail hour, a jazz trio during dinner, and an incomparable 10 piece orchestra to dance the night away. From the first note to the final encore, we were BLOWN AWAY with the talent and energy that the band brought. We had a few special requests for the night - from a unique arrangement for our ceremony processional to a mashup of New York songs during the reception - and David’s team was beyond accommodating. We had dancing for 3 hours straight and not once did anyone leave the floor - the band was able to feel the energy in the room and chose the right song for the moment. I stumbled across the ingoing setlist after the party and was actually surprised to see that the band didn’t even stick to the songs they had picked - a sign that they adjusted based on what the crowd was loving. It’s been nearly a month since the big day and people keep telling us how amazing the music was, and we can’t stop watching the many videos David took from the night, reliving the magic that his band created. If you’re thinking about which band to have for your wedding, look no further than the David Rothstein Band - you won’t be disappointed!!

Michael is an accomplished band leader and producer in a broad range of styles – as one student put it, ‘The Indiana Jones of the music world.’ He has been performing jazz and pop professionally 25 years with the likes of Branford Marsalis, Eric Clapton, Clark Terry, Brian Culbertson, an Kat Parsons Group to name a few. For the past decade, Michael's group, UpBeat, has performed in clubs, corporate galas, weddings, social events, and festivals throughout Chicago land – UpBeat has performed for numerous celebrities / exceptional events, including Jennifer Aniston, Mayor Richard M. Daley, Vince Vaughn, and recently opened for Lionel Richie.

Michael & UpBeat were EXACTLY what we needed for our wedding. Michael set up multiple phone calls with us before the wedding to go over details and understand what we wanted for our day. The band set up rehearsals just to practice our exact set list. We decided on Piano & Violin for the ceremony, with additional Piano for cocktail hour. The full band played a wonderful and creative 3 hour set during our reception. Upbeat set up all of our sound equipment and did a comprehensive sound check early that day. They even had a sound tech on their staff. Upbeat customized our wedding to our exact requests. They ensured to perfect our precessional, recessional, and prelude music. We requested contemporary love songs in which they rocked!! Our cocktail hour was perfect and the guests were complementing how talented the musicians were. Michael was our emcee for the nights events and ensured to follow my timeline to a T. He checked in multiple times with our wedding planner, as well as me and my husband. The 3-hour reception was full of energy, talent, and craftsmanship. Upbeat performed multiple medleys allowing songs to flow seamlessly into each other. The vocalists were top tier and were able to sing a wide variety of genres. The instrumentalists all played a critical role in the feel of the party! I 100% recommend adding the horn to your band! It made every song feel rich & full. Shout out to Reid Spears, piano & vocals, THE TALENT IS POURING OUT OF HIM. If you're thinking about a live band, DO IT. This band is worth every penny!!! We will forever be a fan of UpBeat! Maddy & Sean
