Chicago’s Wedding Entertainment Specialists
Not only is their pricing amazing, but the communication start to finish took a lot of stress off of the wedding planning. The website to add requested songs is super easy to use, the equipment is great, and the schedule planning and announcements really supported the role of day of coordinator. We had Matt as our DJ and he was INCREDIBLE. I couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our wedding- so fun, great at mixing, and pivoted very easily when we had to suddenly move our ceremony inside due to rain. Thank you!!

We had Mike as our DJ, and he was absolutely fantastic! He was a great emcee, and he was great at picking songs that fit the vibe of our wedding. He has a great mix of older classics and newer hits, and he made our wedding so much fun! He also provided quality sound and music to our ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner. My guests absolutely loved him, and I would highly recommend his services!

n events were starting. He also helped to line up the wedding party for our grand entrance. He kept the dance floor lively and fun the whole evening. We also got our name in lights and a backdrop behind our head table from An Enchanted Evening, which were nice touches. The photo booth was one of my favorite parts of the night. Our guests loved it and it was so fun to see the scrapbook of photos afterwards with people's handwritten messages. Honestly one of my favorite keepsakes afterwards.

d dancing! and he is not the dancing type of guy.. But the way Mike did his MC/DJ thing was no joke, he knew exactly what he was doing! The way he transitioned songs into one another and every single song that was played was absolute perfection! This was his first Albanian American fusion wedding and he understood the assignment and delivered!!! Thank you so much Mike for being such a VITAL part of our day! If you are considering using enchanted evening DO IT! I interviewed other companies and knew after talking to Mike he was the one to DJ our wedding and I would do it 100x over again if I could! He is very well spoken, reads the room very well and couldn’t have done a better job! So many guests pulled me aside to tell me this was the best wedding they have ever attended. The dance floor was popping all night long! THANK YOU x A MILLION!!!!!!!

re looking for as far as music, lighting, and planning throughout our big day. From the ceremony to the reception, everything was seamless and perfectly executed. Mike and his assistant didn't need any direction or hand holding, and are total pros. The music selection was spot on and the dance floor stayed packed all night. We’ve heard nothing but positive feedback from our guests about how great the music was and how fun the atmosphere felt. We couldn’t recommend An Enchanted Evening more highly!

ronounced our name and the wedding party's names correctly. He came early to set up and ensure everything was ready by cocktail hour. We upgraded our package to the dancing on the clouds, cold sparks, enhanced sound, projector and screen. Everything worked out smoothly and timing of the cold sparks to our choreographed dance went well too as they had an assistant controlling it. Music sound quality was great and the music portal was easy to use. Mike called us to go over every detail a week before our wedding day. Overall, I highly recommend An Enchanted Evening for your wedding or other events.

Calvin reached out to us, and we met in person to go over every little detail for the wedding day. It was a lengthy meeting, which was awesome, because he was asking us great questions and made sure we all had all of our ducks in a row. He kept in constant communication with us and our other vendors, and he made sure to check in with us throughout our wedding day. Calvin followed every little note we gave him prior to the day to a T. The dance floor was full all night long, and we received many compliments! We're so happy we found An Enchanted Evening, and Calvin truly helped us have the most magical wedding!

nitial Zoom call we had with them was extremely informative and helpful. A few months prior to the wedding, we decided that we wanted to add uplighting and they made it very easy to do so via email which was helpful as we were out of the state on vacation and couldn’t do a Zoom call. Their planning portal is super detailed and easy to navigate.
POST-WEDDING THOUGHTS: The DJ did a great job with the uplighting and was amazing during the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Our guests weren’t big dancers but he tried his absolute best to get as many people as possible out on the dance floor. He worked great with our planner, officiant, and photographers (was also super nice!). Overall, highly recommend!

The Photo Booth attendant was so personable and kind as well, and our guests (as well as us) really enjoyed the whole experience!

They checked in with us throughout the night to make sure everything was going the way we wanted it to. They played the songs that we requested and did a great job of reading the audience and playing music that people danced to all night. At the end of the night there we still people dancing and the DJ announced that he was going to play the last song. One of our guests requested another song and without hesitation the DJ played that song and another before he finished. We highly recommend An Enchanted Evening for your wedding or any other DJ needs.
