My wife and I found ourselves planning our wedding smack dab in the middle of several other family weddings over the past year. Each event we went to was an opportunity for us to critique details of the ceremony, reception, and design choices that were made. We often saw things that we borrowed for our own wedding, and just as often, identified things that were definitely not our style or that we would do differently. One thing we consistently noted, was that the reception could be made or broken by the music choices, sound quality, and general atmosphere created by the DJ. Todd was our first choice. He was quick to reply, always professional, and very accommodating with our many specific requests. It turns out, we hired Todd without even knowing that both of my wife’s sisters had hired him for their weddings 10 years before! Todd was great. He really made our day special. We kept saying that the one thing we cared most about was our guests having a great time. And each of them did. We had friends and family coming up to us all night saying that it was one of the most fun weddings they have been to. We attribute a huge part of that to Todd and Dance Trax. The music was fun and just the right volume. The sound quality wasn’t all distorted or washed out. And Todd did a great job of directing guests, coordinating around events like first dance, cake cutting, etc. I cannot recommend him enough.
Tom was an absolute professional who brought a wealth of knowledge and expertise to our special day. From the outset, he made the planning process seamless, guiding us through song selections and timelines with ease. Tom's attention to detail ensured that every request we had was not only met but exceeded our expectations. His ability to read the crowd and keep the energy high throughout the night was remarkable.
Out of all the compliments we received about our wedding, Todd was at the top of the list! The dance floor was packed ALL night, the intros were spot on and hyped, and everything was kept perfectly on schedule. So many guests of all ages complimented us about our DJ choice! Would recommend Todd for any event! Was awesome to work with and wants to make sure you have the best experience possible. 10/10 recommend!
10/10 DJ! We are beyond happy we hired Todd for our wedding! Todd was extremely responsive and helpful throughout the entire process. Everything went perfectly from start to finish, and he got everyone up and dancing! See attached photo post a lot of fun and dancing. ❤️
We met with Todd several times before our wedding day. Every time he was super professional and kind, making sure he understood us and our vision. On our wedding day we were even more impressed! We have been to so many weddings and I have to say Todd is the best! He really is an awesome MC and DJ! Everyone could hear speeches clearly, his lights added a fun and unique touch, and his music was the best part. He could read the room and had our guests dancing literally the entire time. We got so many compliments about him even weeks after and we couldn't agree more. He is very good at what he does and you can trust him with your wedding. You will not be disappointed! Highly recommend!
I can't say enough good things about working with Todd! I just got married October 14th, 2023 so we recently worked with him. Throughout the entire planning process he was super responsive and accommodating. I am a type A personality so I had put together an entire timeline of our wedding along with a list of songs to play and a do not play list. My husband likes grunge/Depeche Mode and I like Pop music- somehow Todd was able to play a good mix of everything that we wanted. I also had Persian music to mix in that I provided to Todd a few days before the wedding (my dad got it to me very last minute) and Todd had no issues with it.
My only complaint from my guests is that he played so many AMAZING songs back to back that they didn't have enough time to breathe because they wanted to dance to every song- what a great complaint from our guests!!! I also didn't have a typical Coordinator or Wedding Planner which put me in a really bad situation- there were a lot of things that were forgotten because I didn't have a lead person. Todd saw the gaps and stepped in to help me every step of the way. He is such a great person. Both my husband and I were honored to have him with us on our big day!
Looking for DJs can be really difficult and stressful. Take it from a 2023 Bride- JUST HIRE TODD. You won't be disappointed!
Todd, did such an amazing job Dj-ing our wedding. He is very professional and great with guests. He got the party started early and kept it going through the night. He kept us on track with schedule. I highly recommend using Todd's services.
Todd was great to work with, fair price, and kept our guests on the dance floor the whole night!
Dancetrax/Todd did a fantastic job at our wedding. He was organized and patient during the planning stage. He is extremely knowledgeable about music selections and worked with us and our requests! He arrived early, set everything up, and communicated the schedule with everyone for us. During the reception he played our play list and found similar songs to mix in, and even alternated with our live band! Todd did a fantastic job as MC for the evening and went above and beyond physically helping our wedding party set up our sparkler send off. 10/10 we are so thankful for Todd adding to our special night!
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!
BEST DJ ever!!! You could tell he really loves what he does, and has been doing it for years! Very professional, yet fun! Worked amazingly with myself and my husband, and the guests and event staff! 12/10 recommend Todd as your DJ!!!!!
Todd was amazing!
I got married on July 18th, 2021 at Makray Memorial Golf Club and Todd was our DJ. Todd was absolutely amazing. He followed all of our wishes, while artfully choosing music that was appropriate for the night. He started with family friendly music and as the night got later he played more dance/club type music. Todd got everyone out on the dance floor. He has a great personality and was very welcoming and encouraging to all. After my wedding, I received many compliments from my guests beaming about how fun our wedding was and how great the musical choices were. Not only did Todd keep everyone dancing and having a good time, but he is affordable. I would recommend him to anyone. He is simply the best!
Todd did an amazing job with our wedding! He was prompt with answering any questions and was very easy to work with! He provided everything we needed to have a great wedding. We got several compliments at the wedding on such a great music selection! He even was so flexible with making day of changes that were needed! We would highly recommend hiring Todd!

Todd was very responsive when planning for the wedding. He did an amazing job with the music choices and the dance floor was never bare. All of our guests had a great time and they Todd had a lot to do with that. 100% would recommend.
After my wedding, I learned that one of the things people will remember forever is the music. More than the food, more than the location. If you can keep the dance floor full, it is a safe bet it'll be a hit. One of the best decisions of our wedding was hiring Todd Arcari as our DJ. We had the benefit of having the option to extend our wedding time from midnight until 2 if we wanted. Todd stated it would be smart to play it by ear as you want to end with a bang. Needless to say midnight came and went as fast as the night did. The dance floor was full from start to finish. The only reason we had to end the night at 2 was because of our shuttle had one more trip left. I put that success on Todd Arcari. He played hit after hit after hit and you can tell he felt the energy in the room and played songs off of it.
My sister-in-law then asked for his info for a graduation party which he was hired for and I have a cousin who wants to use him for a wedding all the way in Peoria. Clearly he made an impact on the guests as well.
Todd Arcari was one of the best decisions, on the happiest day of our lives. I'd tell you that you shouldn't have anyone else be your DJ.
Todd is amazing. We received so many compliments at my wedding that when my daughter got engaged, I immediately booked him for her wedding. Her event was amazing, as well. Book Todd and you can immediately relieve any stress related to your ceremony and reception sound and entertainment needs!
If you are looking for a DJ for your wedding, Todd from Dancetrax Mobile DJ Entertainment is the DJ for you. Todd came from Chicago to meet us in the suburbs while we were planning our event, and we could tell instantly that he had great charisma and energy. Todd told us to give him a few songs that we definitely wanted played, but to leave the rest up to him so that he could feel the crowd out and keep them on the dance floor. That is exactly what he did. From the moment the dancing started until the end of the reception, people never left the dance floor. You could tell that Todd was into it and truly enjoyed DJing for the wedding. He was extremely professional and it was very easy to work with him. Living in China, we were only able to meet with him for an initial consultation, and that didn't matter because Todd was so organized and efficient. We couldn't imagine our wedding without him!
We had such a wonderful wedding celebration with Todd as our DJ!! He did a phenomenal job and we all felt like he was truly a part of our family. His mastery of the craft of DJ-ing made us feel at ease and he made all of our guests feel welcomed. We had an international wedding and the medley of songs from our different countries that he had put together worked out so well as we all danced and enjoyed ourselves! Plus so many of our guests were complimenting our DJ!
He was very professional and worked with us very closely at every step during the planning phase! We are profoundly grateful for his services and talent!!! He made our celebration awesome and one to remember!!
Let me just say if The Knot had an option to have 10 stars, I would be leaving a 10 star rating. DJ Todd from Dancetrax was a truly remarkable DJ. Todd was the master of ceremony and DJ at our wedding in downtown Chicago this November. My now wife's main concern was not having people on the dance floor dancing the night away having the best time of their lives. I received a reference from a family friend but was a bit skeptical because the reviews online were fairly old for Dancetrax. However, apparently people just had a wedding and didn't get around to leaving reviews. We gave Todd a list of 15 songs so that he would have a sense of our taste and style and he built a song list of similar songs around the selection we provided. The dance floor was packed throughout the night and didn't ever have a lull. He was able to read the crowd and adjust the song according to the current atmosphere and type of people on the dance floor whether they were older or younger. Todd has a knack for reading a crowd and was able to keep the energy high throughout the night. Let's just say my now wife was very very pleased with the level of energy and making the dance floor the focal point of our night. Thank you again for making our special day that much more special. I would highly recommend DJ Todd from Dancetrax to provide the music for your next event!
Wow...where to even start! I had a very tight budget and explained to Todd what I was working with--he was so understanding and was the first vendor to be personable and patient with me as I was planning my wedding. We had to change our date from what we originally booked and Todd was flexible enough to still be our DJ on the new date. He was spot on with the kind of music we requested and was sure to keep the dance floor going until the very end. I'm a big dancer myself, so to know I was constantly dancing is a good thing in my book! My husband and I both agree that it felt like we knew Todd forever- he is so friendly, easy to talk to, and made the wedding planning process that much better (I didn't stress at all about the DJ!) I would recommend Todd and would definitely hire him again for any big events our family may have. Thank you so much for all of your hard work Todd!
Todd was our wedding DJ on September 30th at Guaranteed Rate Field! From January when we first signed up to work with him until after the wedding day when he checked in on how we liked everything, he was very professional, always quick to reply to e-mails and very enthusiastic!
Most importantly, our dance floor was full ALL NIGHT. At any given moment, you'd find people from 2 to 80 years old dancing! Everyone had a great time. We had very few guests leave the wedding early and they all commented on how great our DJ was. Thanks so much, Todd!
Todd at Dancetrax was AMAZING! My dancefloor was filled the whole night which is exactly what I wanted. Todd did an amazing job the whole night
Very easy to work with. Very professional for the wedding. Todd Arcari worked with us to put together a special and fun first dance. Any request we had he was very happy to work with us.
From start to finish Todd was amazing and I couldn’t be happier with what he added to our wedding. His process of preparation is extremely simple but it works. On the night of our wedding Todd was extremely attentive to my husband and me as well as our parents and bridal party. He made sure we were prepared and ready for every part of the evening. Of course he also played exactly the music we were looking for and our dance floor was never empty. The best part was when he played the Polka version of Bear Down Chicago Bears – my husband and our fathers went nuts! Todd made the party such a fun night….definite A++++++.
Todd Arcari was our DJ/Host for our reception at US Cellular Field. He did a fabulous job, able to find all the song we requested...keeps us posted during planning and took care of the little things we missed. Very pleasant and charming.
We hired Todd at the recommendation of our venue. He was the perfect balance of keeping the party going without making himself the center of attention. He did a great job of reading the crowd. I think he only cleared the dance floor once with a song he played and just right then and there changed it to get everyone back out there dancing.
Todd did an outstanding job at our reception on July 10th 2010. We had a multicultural wedding between Indian and American cultures. We wanted to incorporate both types of music and Todd did this flawlessly. We have had guests tell us that they couldn't stop dancing the whole night (including myself). I would recommend Todd for any type of wedding, he was wonderful to work with and completely professional the entire evening.
My family- old and new- have a wide range of music they like, so we set up the basic music and they took it from there. Our families danced so much we had to extend our time by 4 hours!!!
