DJ Polish Mike was great! Our dance floor was filled all night! We had both Polish and American guests so having someone speak both languages was important to us.
DJ John is truly one of a kind! We looked at bands and DJs and have been to other weddings but nothing compares to DJ John! He knows how to read the floor and create exactly the da...

From the very beginning John was outstanding. Any question we had all we had to do was ask. He would be back with an answer within 10 minutes.
The music was outstanding. I had a t...

d him as the DJ for our wedding and the energy he brought was contagious, everyone fell in love with the production! Lights, sound, overall display was top tier. Any party needs a good DJ who knows what he is doing and that is the definition of John! Hire him you will not regret it, thank you John for such an incredible night that we’ll never forget!!
Mike was our DJ. He followed the playlist given but also added a few that made the dance floor more active. The floor lighting was pretty cool. We got many compliments.
DJ John was an incredible partner as we planned our big day. He knew the venue from previous weddings he produced and was able to give us tips/tricks on how to navigate it. He also...
knew many of our other vendors which made it truly feel like we were one big team. He is incredible on the microphone and helps everyone settle-in for their big speeches with his humor and empathy. The music rocked and we couldn’t have asked for a better day. You crushed it, DJ John! -AJ & Madison
We had John Marcopulos DJ our wedding and we couldn’t have been happier! John was so attentive to all our questions as we were getting ready for our wedding, whenever we would call...
him he would answer right away or call us back in 5-10 minutes. He was extremely helpful with navigating a mixed Greek and Polish wedding, with great recommendations and suggestions. During the day of the wedding he was extremely communicative, kept us in the loop of what was upcoming so we could ready! It made enjoying the day so much easier with him there, we cannot recommend him enough 10/10!
100/100 top notch entertainment & party guide. John caters to you & your crowd. If you would like a successful party, I highly recommend hiring him. My husband and I got married th...

cked the entire night! From all the pre-wedding meetings to the actual night, we truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Very reasonably priced and would recommend to all our family and friends!
Could not have asked for a better experience! John is a consummate professional, beyond considerate. He made sure every part of our evening had the perfect accompaniment.
My wife and I met John when he played one of our friends weddings last year. He did such a great job we wanted to get his information. We met with John and it was apparent that he ...
was knowledgeable, professional, and organized (the exact things you want from your wedding vendors) - not to mention just super friendly as well. John would give us his input on things he’s seen go over well and things that don’t go over well, but never tried to push us one way or another. He was super flexible with our requests leading up to the wedding and especially the day of. We were planning on having an outdoor ceremony but the weather did not hold up. We had everything set up for the outdoor ceremony and amongst all of our vendors, John was again not trying to pressure us one way or another and just wanted to do what we wanted. We ultimately flipped to indoors, but knowing that John wanted us to have what we wanted meant a lot to us.
In my opinion, the DJ is not somewhere to skimp on for the wedding and John is worth EVERY dollar. Our dance floor was rockin for 4.5 hours and we got so many compliments about how much fun everyone had. I’d HIGHLY recommend John to anyone!!
Our wedding would not have been as amazing as it was without the stellar work John did. Not only was he highly detailed and accommodating in the prep leading up to our day, but was...
adaptable day of and ensured both our ceremony and reception went off without a hitch. The dance floor was a nonstop party, and every 10 minutes I had people coming up to me asking who our DJ was. He did a great job at reading the crowd and keeping the energy high. We had a blast on our special day, and John was a critical part of that. Thank you so much!!!
DJ John was absolutely amazing! From start to finish, he was super responsive to all our questions, which made planning so much easier. He brought the perfect energy, kept the danc...
e floor packed all night, and played such great music that no one wanted to leave. His pre-dinner dance party was a brilliant touch—it totally broke the ice and got everyone in the mood to celebrate.
So many of our guests came up to us raving about how fun the night was and how awesome the DJ was. If you’re looking for a wedding DJ, go with DJ John—no need to look anywhere else!
DJ John provided everything we needed to create the most amazing atmosphere and dance floor on our special day. He was accommodating, communicative, and made the planning and the d...

ll night long! At the end of the night when the lights came on, most of my guests were still there and didn’t want it to end. Mike kept a great time line and kept the wedding moving along just how I wanted it! Couldn’t be happier with how the night turned out
John is extremely detailed, thoughtful and honest with clients to help them have fantastic entertainment. From state of the art equipment, music selection, and lighting, Fantastic ...
DJs truly has it all! John was willing to meet as many times as we needed to ensure every reception detail was perfectly thought out and executed.
We felt completely confident going into our wedding that John would take care of our music and timing from cocktail hour, through dinner and dancing. Sooo worth the investment to be stress free and have a packed dance floor all night long. You will not regret booking with John!
Thank you for everything!

ally has a true passion for his job, and it shows. I will be recommending him for all my friends and families weddings.
Let’s be honest here… a DJ makes or breaks your wedding reception. It doesn’t matter how much money you put in decor and all these extra little things- if your music stinks, everyt...
hing else will follow suit. With John, it made our ENTIRE night a MILLION times better than imagined . It’s very rare to find a DJ that genuinely enjoys what he does and wants every single person on the dance floor. John is one of those rare people. He listened to what we wanted our vibe to be and the type of music BOTH my husband and I loved and made it come to life! He listened and didn’t play ANY of our “ no play” lists ( even though it was pages long, haha!). He played every single one of our favorites while we were actively on the dance floor. He was so attentive and cooperated with our coordinator. And the remixes he had were AMAZING! 10/10 best investment towards our wedding was hiring John. Literally had guests saying our NYE wedding the best they’ve ever been to and that the music was awesome. HIRE JOHN!
John was phenomenal to work with! We were blown away by the fact that while looking for DJs, John actually has you come to his home where he has his complete set up in his garage! ...
For events you get to taste food before booking and tour a venue before booking so it was just a great feeling to get to experience how he would be as a DJ! We knew right then and there John would be an incredible addition to our wedding. The dance floor stayed packed all night and he made everything seamless to work with!
John was “FANTASTIC”! Best wedding ever. The dance floor was packed the entire night and beyond. Guests did not want to leave and John worked with us to extend out contracted ti...
me. Something I had never experienced before — dancing started before toasts and dinner. It set the vibe and had everyone wanting more after dessert. We danced for more than 4 hours and the feedback we received regarding the music was outstanding. John’s services and ability to keep the party going are unparalleled. Worth it for sure!
Fantastic dj's, specifically Mike and John are phenomenal. Mike was our m c and DJ and he exceeded expectations in every way! Completely on top of everything going on at the party ...
absolutely perfect song list, and just a wonderful energy with extremely thorough follow-up. John is a wonderful guy overseeing the operation who is extremely fast to respond and just a good human being who wants to make people's events memorable. I couldn't think of him a wonderful pair to provide services for a wedding or any other party! The next party I have I can't wait to have them there maybe as guest this time lol! I highly recommend these guys and this vendor absolutely outstanding in every single way!
Dj John did a great job! The ceremony ran very smoothly and the introductions at our reception were fun and on point. He was very flexible throughout the planning process and we go...

We reached out to him because he was a “recommended vendor” from the ven...
ue. From the moment we reached out, he was incredible to work with. He has great communication as well as recommendations.
So many of our guests said they had never seen a dance floor so crowded and stay so crowded for the entire night of dancing. John’s ability to mix music is absolutely incredible. I had a few friends reach out after the wedding asking for his contact info. My husband and I will forever be grateful to John for making our night truly amazing!
Absolutely amazing! DJ John is everything you need and more in a DJ for your big day. He goes above and beyond in his role and so well versed he knows the ins and outs about everyt...
hing! We completely trusted him and his input and knew we could go to him for anything. There was not one time during our reception the dance floor was not crowded! People continue to compliment the music and environment the DJ brought. DJ John was amazing in announcing the bridal party and worked very closely to ensure everything was how we wanted! He had amazing suggestions on what works vs. not works when it comes to the reception. His quality of work goes above and beyond and people will talk about how amazing he was for years after.
John was born to DJ. If I could give him 6 stars, I would. He was so helpful in both planning and on the day of the wedding. He kept things moving along and the dance floor was con...
stantly filled the entire night. I’ve received dozens of compliments on the night and specifically Fantastic DJ’s. I will be recommending him to my family and friends for upcoming events.
John is an absolutely phenomenal DJ. His set up is one of a kind. For both my wedding and my sisters wedding, he quite literally had the dance floor packed the ENTIRE night. I rece...
ived several compliments from wedding guests about John. He takes the time to meet with you prior to the wedding date to discuss all details and to show you his robust equipment. He is professional, hilarious, and such a pleasure to work with. Thanks to John’s expertise, we had the most amazing time at our wedding. He has our highest recommendation, 10/10!!!
All I can say is WOW! John went above and beyond to make our wedding day so so special, he is so attentive, so professional and SO MUCH FUN!!! Our dance floor was packed all night ...
all thanks to him! Aside from being an amazing DJ, he also took the responsibility to be somewhat of a “day of coordinator” by taking on tasks such as making sure our bridal party was on point for their walkouts, speeches, etc. I would highly recommend him, as I already have to all of our newly engaged friends and will continue to do so. Every single one of our guests went out of their way to mention how great of a DJ we had. He is easy to work with, and will accommodate your wants and needs, whatever they may be! 12/10!
John, I couldn’t wait to text you today. That was seriously the best dancing I’ve ever seen at a party. You are beyond amazing. Thank you so much. We have been receiving nonstop co...
mpliments on you all day. You are really the best! What a party! I have never in reception or any event where there were that many people out on the dance floor, all night! You are a master!
Omg this so so amazing 😱🥹♥️ John you absolutely KILLED IT last night. Every single person there was telling us how amazing the music was and just all of the ambience in general....
You were an absolute star to work with and you made our day so so special ❤️😭😭😭❤️
Professional and communicative. Made sure everyone had a great time! We are super happy
DJ John was AMAZING!! He kept our dance floor going all night & played music for all guests to dance too! We had so much fun & heard guests raving about the music all night and for...
weeks to come afterwards. John was extremely professional throughout the entire planning process and gave us suggestions and helped us make decisions that made our wedding night the best night! We would recommend John to anyone who wants an AWESOME dance floor full of energy & love! John truly cares about your wedding as if it was his own and knows music so well. We LOVE JOHN!!!!
John was AMAZING to have as our wedding DJ!! I originally met him when he did my brother and sister in laws’ wedding and it was immediately evident that he had serious talent in wh...
at he does. When it came time to book our wedding, I KNEW that John would be our go-to guy! He truly went above and beyond for us, and was so easy to work with. John has the biggest personality and his good energy shines and truly pumps up the dance floor! He knows how to get a party started, and is insanely good at reading the room. Throughout the reception, he would remind me when we need to do certain things (such as the bouquet toss, father/daughter dance, etc.) So, I never once had to worry about what I was supposed to be doing, and he made everything flow so perfectly. While we crafted a playlist based on what we wanted to play, John had SO many suggestions for things I wasn’t sure on - and let me say that his suggestions were SPOT ON! He had awesome suggestions for the ceremony music, pump up jams to get the dance floor going, etc. He even did our up lighting for us (chase bank blue) and it made the room glow and look truly like a fairytale! The whole night my guests kept saying how much they loved our DJ and how great he was. I will DEFINITELY be recommending John to all of my friends and family!
DJ John was a blessing to our wedding. From the first moment we contacted John he was immediately responsive and had such a positive energy! He has a very busy schedule on the we...
ekends with all the weddings he is working, and he was so kind and willing to make time for my fiancée (now wife) and I to come to his home to formally introduce himself and show us his DJ setup. He knew our first song “Wonderful Tonight” by Eric Clapton and played it on his system…..and the rest is history! We were sold!!! Our wedding reception was at Venuti’s in Addison, and DJ John was so amazing at coordinating the entire night! EVERYONE WAS ON THAT DANCE FLOOR!! DJ John is without a doubt the best in the business, and we highly HIGHLY suggest booking him for your wedding!
DJ John was so amazing to work with for our wedding day! He was always so welcoming and made leading up to the day very exciting! He was great at communicating with any questions o...

packed the whole night! John gave us a great party set list and let us mold it to fit our family and friends ahead of time, but also read the crowd really well and knew when to change it up to meet the crowds vibe. I would recommend him to anyone looking to dance their whole wedding night!

to hear. I loved his setup with the lights and the loud place. He has plenty of options to choose from based on your price range. THANK YOU JOHN for an amazing wedding-YOU KILLED IT!
DJ John! In the last three years, my now-wife and I have attended almost 15 weddings, none of which had DJ's that compare in the way of music or presentation to DJ John Marcopulos....
From day one, DJ John's attention to detail and concern for our individual needs stood out from all of the other vendors and DJ's we'd met with about emceeing our wedding. DJ John showed a genuine understanding of the atmosphere we were trying to create, and he had a physical setup that complimented our vision and which no other DJ we met with could hold a candle to. DJ John's knowledge of crowd favorites, and his understanding of generational music varieties, assured us he would be able to read the dancefloor and keep everyone from toddlers to grandparents engaged and entertained throughout the night. John helped us craft a custom playlist that accentuated each of our personalities while paying homage to the classics of our parents' generation, and he never hesitated to meet with us as we navigated the ever-changing environment throughout this tumultuous pandemic. Never before have my wife or I been compelled to compliment the music at our friends' weddings, BUT since our wedding day we've received an outpouring of praise and requests for DJ John's contact information from dozens of our wedding guests!!! Throughout our special night, John kept the dance floor alive and made sure our wedding was the once-in-a-lifetime event my wife truly deserved. I can't thank DJ John enough for his support and attention to detail, and I would recommend him in a heartbeat - HANDS DOWN - as the only DJ you should consider for your future wedding. If DJ John is unavailable, you need to reschedule, he's that good! Thank you so much John, and congratulations to all the future brides and grooms who go with DJ John on their special night!

DJ John - you are like family to us now - OPA! WE LOVE YOU!

Brides need to book John as their DJ for their special day. He listens and over delivers! 10/10. He made our day special and kept people on the dance floor. He listened to our requ...
ests and made me feel special. He heard our vision and made it a reality. His personality, professionalism, and price he takes into his work shoes how passionate he is about YOUR special day. I can not recommend him enough. Brides will NOT be disappointed. Book him while you can! We can’t say thank you enough.
Due to Covid we had to reschedule and ultimately cancel our reception. That said, John was amazing to work with. He was flexible and worked with us during this unprecedented time. ...
Out of all of our vendors I enjoyed working with John the most. I strongly recommend John and Fantastic DJs & Photo Booth!
If you find yourself searching for an outstanding DJ look no further than John Marcopulos of Fantastic DJs! My now husband and I hired him as our DJ for our wedding and he was AWES...
OME! He really does deserve all the positive reviews he receives and picking him as my wedding DJ was one of the best decisions I made when planning my wedding. He really knows how to get the crowd going and keep people on the dance floor all night. He also helped us with the schedule and timing for our reception that night and made sure things ran smoothly and on time. I also really appreciated being able to meet with him and see his set up prior to our big day. He was also very communicative with me throughout the months leading up to the wedding to touch base on all the details of what we had discussed. If I ever need a DJ for another large event in my future I will 1000% hire him again! Seriously... I can't emphasize enough how awesome he is!
Book with confidence!! All the 5 star reviews are accurate. (John is very open, direct, and has very reasonable fees.) He is a true professional and will keep your event running...
smoothly. He takes your input and really personalizes your event. He offers suggestions too.
On the night of the event, he takes responsibility to make sure your photographer and videographer know when special dances and announcements will occur. Our dance floor was packed all night. He is a blast and will ensure your wedding is fantastic! Seriously, look no further. John is the BEST!
Fantastic DJ's is a wonderful company and John was the best DJ that I have ever heard. He made the music part of the reception easy because he is very talented on being able to rea...
d the crowd and play the right music at the right time. He’s so personable that he makes you feel like you hired a friend. Besides his music talent, his gear is insanely amazing! From the lights to the speakers to the homemade photo booth. The music was clear, the lights were on point, and we got to keep a copy of every photo that everyone took in the photo booth in an album. John and his team are the best and should be used for any and all events that require music.
John at Fantastic DJ's was AMAZING! We met him at his home for our initial meeting and then were able to do our communication through phone or email. John made our reception SOO mu...
ch fun. He kept everyone on the dance floor the entire night. Our guests kept saying "I was going to sit down at the next lull song and there was never a chance- every song was worth dancing to!". John was super friendly, helpful, and a blast to be around. We would highly recommend him for another event!
I recently got married and John was our DJ for our wedding and let me tell you he did an AMAZING job!!! He has a great personality and is full of energy. You can tell that he loves...
what he does and cares about making your day special. We have heard from many of our guests what a great job he did. I have some friends telling me already that they will want John to be their DJ when they get married. I HIGHLY recommend using John for your wedding! You won't be disappointed. John, thank you so much for making my wedding night so special!
My wedding is the third family wedding John has done, and of course he did an amazing job! As always, my family loves you and you even won the hearts of those stubborn Belarussians...
! He was able to blend the American and Belarussian cultures wonderfully with music, the floor was packed all night long. What a blast!
