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.

Our past clients include The United Nations, Lockheed Martin, Nationwide Auto Insurance, The Shell Oil Corporation, and many more. No event is too small or large for us. Louis Pettinelli Entertainment has musical ensembles that range from a soloist to a 15 piece party band, and everything in between!

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

Karl Knutson - Band Or Dj? Get Both! 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,259
  • Serves South Wilmington, IL

I love what I do. I have been singing since age 8 and DJing since 15. I found a way to combine the best parts of music for an amazing wedding experience! People are wowed at the elegance of live music during cocktails as a first impression. Then they are treated to their favorite songs on the dance floor with me as the dj! It’s a perfect balance!

If you are searching for a DJ, look no further. Karl made our reception flow so easily. Between his thorough questionnaire and past experience, he took our vision and made it into a reality! He engaged our guests and took it upon himself to make sure the dance floor was always full! I have been to weddings where the DJ does not adapt to the room, but Karl is the exact opposite! He made sure to sus out the music preferences and include all age groups. We loved having him and we are so glad we entrusted him with our special day!

We are a collective of highly trained photographers and DJs. Our photographers combine natural portraiture with a creative documentary style to tell a unique story for each couple that chooses us. Masters of their craft, C+A's DJs specialize in turntable DJing, giving your event an authentic music experience.

My husband and I absolutely love Cage and Aquarium! We utilized them for both photography and DJ services on wedding day. As for our photographers, they were incredible in their photography skills but also in supporting us on wedding day. They helped make the day run smoothly and were efficient in coordinating things such as taking large family photos and enduring our travels around the city between the ceremony and reception. As for our DJ, he was also amazing. He kept the reception running smoothly and was so personable and professional. I couldn't have been more impressed with the music selection our DJ chose -- so many of our guests said that we had the most amount of people dancing at a wedding that they'd seen. I can't recommend C&A enough.

  • Serves South Wilmington, IL

Considered a “Master of Genres”, he’ll make your big day a blast, regardless of your taste in music! A couple can expect a high-energy atmosphere for their wedding day! Not only will you feel the energy from DJ One Chance's fast-paced DJ style but his energy as an Emcee can be felt throughout your wedding day.

DJ One Chance absolutely exceeded our expectations at our wedding! If you are able to book him for your wedding date (or any event you need a DJ at for that matter), you are incredibly lucky. He immediately got everyone to the dance floor which was packed with people the entire reception. One of my favorite moments was our entrance to the reception. DJ One Chance hyped up the whole room so our entrance was very high energy and we were so, so happy. This man is gifted at what he does. We found him from a wedding we attended where he was the talk of the reception and that quickly translated to our wedding where yet again he was the talk of the reception for how incredible he was. DJ One Chance, THANK YOU from Steven and Sarah. You helped make our wedding day absolutely perfect and we congratulate any future couple that gets the honor of having you DJ for their wedding day.
