Midwest Best DJs are truly the best! From start to finish they were so easy to work with.They made my 50th Birthday Disco Party 🪩 so much fun! They met all of our requests (we had...
quite a few). Every person we encountered from emails, phone calls, the day of the event, & after the party were kind & professional! The DJs & the Photo Booth guy were all great to work with. They adjusted the type & volume of music according to what was happening at the party. They made it really fun to dance! The guy running the Photo Booth did a great job making sure each person in the photo had a copy of the photo strip. After the party, I was having a hard time downloading the photos (I got digital copies of each photo strip & the little videos that were made as the photos were being taken- so great to have these memories!), Lindsey worked very hard with me to ensure that I had the photos downloaded. I would recommend Midwest Best DJs for any event you are having.

ave multiple DJs that you can get paired with based on your music taste. We had DJ Erik and he did an AMAZING job! The dance floor was filled the entire night and he did a great job reading the vibes of the room and knowing what to play next. We had so much fun and I would definitely recommend if you want to have a good dance floor vibe at your wedding! They also did a great job with providing mics for our ceremony and we had no issues with sound or mics - so important but sometimes gets overlooked :) Thank you Midwest Best DJs!!!
Hector and Lindsey were nothing short of incredible. From the planning process, to the wedding day, there was absolutely nothing we would have changed.
We received countless compl...
iments from guests about having the best DJ they've ever heard at a wedding. They raved over the song selections, ability to read the crowd, and keeping the floor packed all night.
I personally want to thank Hector for re-playing one of my favorite songs when I missed it being played the first time. It made my night to be able to dance to that song with my college friends. I'll also never forget being behind the DJ booth dancing and scream-singing Mr. Brightside!
You all made our night unforgettable, and we are forever grateful you could be a part of it.
If you are like me, you read every single review about a business. Let me reassure you on Midwest Best DJs. When we were looking for a DJ company for our wedding, I looked everywhe...
re. I compared everyone. What I truly wanted was for my guest to have the best music, the best mixes, someone who can read the room, and someone who could create a party. Now that we have had our wedding, I can say that Midwest Best DJs truly is the best in the business! From the initial zoom meeting, to the prep work, all the way to the day of our wedding, everything was flawless. Hector and team will make sure to fit the vibe you are looking for, play the songs you want and don't want. Even if you don't know what you want, they will make sure to make it a party! There are two main things that your guests will remember, the food and the music! I am so glad we decided to go with Hector and Midwest Best DJs for our wedding. Our guests were on the dance floor the entire night! Our grandmas were dancing, the kids were dancing, everyone was dancing! We had so many comments about how they had not danced that hard at a wedding in a long time!
I can guarantee you that Midwest Best DJs is worth every penny and a great choice for your wedding!
Hector and Lindsey, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you for making our day spectacular!

We truly cannot say enough amazing things about Hector and Lindsey! From the very beginning, they were organized, responsive, and incredibly professional. Every step of the plannin...
g process felt easy and stress-free because we knew we were in good hands. Professionalism and organization can be hard to find in a DJ and they are truly top tier!
What stood out to us most was their kindness and genuine care for our day. During the planning phase, they took the time to really understand our vibe and what was most important to us. And on the day of the wedding, Hector and Lindsey were both checking in on us, offering to get us a drink, a snack or anything we needed.
And the dance floor? PACKED all night long. We have seriously had multiple people tell us that it was one of the most fun dance floors at a wedding theyve ever attended. The transitions between songs were seamless, the energy never dropped, and every moment felt perfectly timed. They are unbelievably talented at reading the room, mixing songs, and creating a flow that kept everyone up and dancing. The lightshow on the dancefloor was another added piece that made it even better.
Beyond the music, they helped keep the entire day running smoothly. From the cocktail hour where they reminded guests to grab their placecards, to the very end, they brought a calm and joyful presence that allowed us to truly party and enjoy every moment.
We’re so grateful to have had such amazing people as part of our day. Thank you for sharing your talent to make our day so unforgettable.
We would recommend Midwest Best to any and everyone!!!

Hector and team communicated effectively from the beginning and helped guide us throughout the whole process. We felt very prepared going into the wedding day. They were extremely ...
professional the day of the event and helped beyond their responsibilities - asking to help carry things or get us something to eat/drink, etc. Despite it being a longer night for a NYE wedding, Hector brought the energy throughout the entire night and played all the songs we wanted at the right times. The night was seamless with no issues and great vibes. 10/10 recommend.
100% recommend!
From the initial inquiry and phone call, I felt an instant connection with Lindsey and Hector, and knew they would do a fantastic job getting the party going and ...
keeping everything stress-free along the way.
Our DJ was Erik, who did a great job of following our guidance while also reading the room and making sure the music was hitting. Amid the craziness of wedding planning, Midwest Best DJs was a vendor that I knew would always be responsive and easy to work with, and that I had the utmost faith would knock it out of the park. Definitely recommend!
We were so thrilled to have DJ Hector on board! He was more than anything we could have hoped for. He worked with us on every detail and killed it on the mic and he had a light sho...
w for the dance floor. His playlist was perfect for the whole night and every entrance was queued up perfectly with the music. Not only was he patient with us but he gave really good advice as well for song choices/wedding timeline. He checked on us multiple times in the evening to ensure we were having a good time and we were never without a drink. Thank you for everything. Cannot recommend DJ Hector more!
My husband and I LOVED having Hector and The Midwest Best DJs team at our wedding. Music was one of the most important things to us when planning our wedding and we knew we needed ...
to find a DJ we could trust with our playlist, who could mix and also read the vibes of the room. Hector did exactly this and surpassed all expectations. We had an absolute blast on the dance floor. From the first conversation we had with their team, we knew they were the real deal and we would be in good hands. They answered all questions right away, had open lines of communication throughout the year and a half we were planning, and even made a logo for us to use with a projector on our dance floor. We can't recommend this team enough, 10/10!!!
Hector was exceptional! We received so many rave reviews from our guests on his demeanor and performance, and he was absolutely incredible to work with from start to finish! Hiring...

ring to events and to have that in person at your own party is indescribable. They really did such an amazing job as a team. My new husband and I both feel like we hired them as DJs, personal assistants, and event coordinators! 😂😂 We can't thank them enough for such an amazing night. We 100000% recommend Midwest Best DJs for your next big event.

o incredibly energetic and receptive. I'm a sucker for a fun dance floor, and for my wedding, I'd say I hit the jackpot with my DJ! People were on the dance floor all night and that's all I ever wanted! Thank y'all so much for being so thorough and helpful throughout my entire wedding planning process. Noel was so great with assisting me when I couldn't find my photographer and a worker at my wedding and he made sure to coordinate and help me with anything I needed before the wedding and the night of. Like I said, I can't say enough about these amazing people! Absolutely blew me away! Thank you!
Midwest DJs did an amazing job. From the planning to the execution. I would definitely hire them again.

told Hector and Lindsey that I wanted our guests on the dance floor all night long, and they did just that. From our cocktail hour to dinner to dancing they hit every point. Not to mention they made our wedding entrance come to life. My husband and I still are gushing over how much we love Midwest Best DJs and will definitely be referring them out to people we know! -Lauren and Carter
We hired Hector as our DJ for our wedding this past weekend and he CRUSHED IT! Such a professional, I hope I have another event some day for him. His portal made the planning proce...
ss super easy and cover all of the important parts of the night in detail. Hector and Lindsey both were super responsive and helped us stay on track. They were flexible with our music requests and even helped make small edits to our songs, like our first dance song. The sounds system was perfect for our venue. I've been at some where the speakers are set up poorly and not everyone can hear toasts, but not with this group. Everyone could hear perfectly. The uplighting was awesome too, I'm really happy we went with it. I appreciate that he was able to link to our spotify and play our playlist, but also took over with his own choices to based on the crowd. Overall, can't say enough good things about our experience with him and his team.

ed from beginning to end. During our final zoom call, Hector asked if we wanted him to follow our playlist entirely, or let him “feel” the crowd and to use his best judgement for the music. I gave him creative freedom for the dance floor music and IM SO HAPPY I DID. One of the things I heard from my guests the most about our wedding was how AMAZING the dj and dance floor was, which is exactly what I wanted for everyone. One of the things that stood out to me the most about Hector was his kindness and genuine passion for what he does. He went above and beyond his roles as a DJ- checking on us to make sure we had drinks in our hand, that we had a fan on us when it was hot, and he even stepped in to carry one of our banner’s inside to the reception when another vendor moved it to the wrong place. I’m so happy with the turnout of our wedding and I credit a huge part of that to Hector & Lindsey. Thank you MWBDJ’s for giving us the wedding our dreams and for treating us like royalty from beginning to end. We are so grateful, and are excited to use them again for any event we have in our family going forward.

My husband and I have polar opposite music tastes and Hector was able to blend them together seamlessly.

d of wedding I wanted to have and for me I wanted it to be a party where people don’t want to leave the dance floor and that is exactly what I got! He was perfect, he knew when songs where not bring the energy that we wanted he changed them and brought it back up. He truly DJ our wedding and didn’t just put in some playlist and let it play.
Very professional with an easy to use portal. Our DJ Jakub set up meetings to ensure we got exactly what we wanted! He provided a night of music that left the guest wanting more!
Jakub was very professional and helpful. He made our wedding day special and we all danced the night away.

leasant! We used Noel for our wedding DJ and he was amazing! We had several meetings with him leading up to the day which was very helpful to keep us on track. He was also very attentive on the wedding day itself, and did a great job of keeping us informed of what was going on, and then once the dance floor opened he kept the party going all night!! Definitely recommend working with Midwest Best DJs

g. Hector completely nailed our vibe/vision for the music for the wedding (ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner & dancing) and we couldn’t even keep track of all of the compliments we were getting on the DJ/music the entire night. All in all, we couldn’t be happier that we chose to use Midwest Best DJs for our wedding & would recommend them to all other couples.
Do not hesitate to hire Midwest Best DJs for your event!! They are the BEST!! Our wedding was SO much fun - the dance floor was packed all night long! We and we are still hearin...
g back from our guests about how great our DJ was!
From the get-go, we had easy and accessible communication with Hector and Lindsey. They have a great website to help you choose music - very easy to search songs and also to see the top 150 requested songs. Hector was a great guide for us in areas where we weren't sure. We had full confidence in him and it was a stress reliever to know we were in great hands!
When you go on their website, you will see that there is a bit of an upcharge for Hector (and he is totally worth it by the way!) but after working with Hector and Lindsey (owners), I have no doubt that their other DJs would do an excellent job as well. You can tell that they are really tuned into their clients and that they would only hire people who would execute in the high standard they have established for their company. If you are considering them, reach out for an initial interview and I strongly believe you will feel the same confidence we had in them right off the bat!! Thank you Hector and Lindsey !!
Midwest Best Djs were absolutely amazing! From the second we hired them they were nothing but helpful. They are so communicative! They responded so quickly to any questions, chan...
ges, ir concerns we had. Our dance floor was only empty during dinner! Our guests were so impressed and had so much fun. I wish we could live this day over and over. We will definitely be hiring them for any future events we have and will 110% be recommending them to all of our friends and family.

friendly, organized, professional and dedicated to giving us an amazing evening. Erik provided wonderful music for our cocktail hour, kept the night moving by following our timeline, and kept our dance floor packed from start to finish! We cannot thank Erik enough for giving us the best night of our lives! We recommend Midwest Best DJs to anyone that need DJ services. Hector, the owner, is awesome and committed to making your event perfect. Thank you for everything Erik and Hector!
Sincerely,
Alex & Taylor
We loved working with Midwest Best DJs, Hector specifically. He was really awesome from start to finish. He was super responsive and did everything with a smile on his face. I love...
how happy is he all the time. Everyone had a wonderful time at the wedding. I had specifically asked him not to play certain songs, and he kept denying everyone that requested it, which I thought was hilarious. One of our favorite vendors to work with. Highly would recommend Hector and his team!
The best decision we made for our wedding was hiring Midwest Best DJs as our DJ. They make it so easy from the beginning by providing a portal to enter timeline / detail / song inf...
ormation and even song suggestions. The email reminders from 30, 60, 90 days out are very helpful as well.
They dress and handle themselves very professionally while being very knowledgeable and trustworthy. From the ceremony, to the cocktail hour / dinner, to the reception - everything was perfect from start to finish. They absolutely killed it!! Everyone couldn’t stop talking about how awesome they were and I can’t thank them enough! The energy was unreal. I will be recommending them to all of my friends and will forever be grateful for them making the planning process so simple and stress free.
P.S. - you have to get the package with uplighting - it really transforms the entire space especially for the dance floor.

We could not have possibly had a better experience with Midwest Best DJ's. From the first time we met our DJ, Hector, we knew that he wanted this day to be exactly what was right ...
for us.
We had several meetings with Hector to discuss everything from reception music, walkouts, cocktail hour, dinner, and much more. He gave us free range to request any songs we wanted, didn't want, and even allowed us to create a playlist and send to him to use. For the cocktail hour and dinner, we had no idea what type of music to use, but Hector sent us several examples of what to use. Not only was he a phenomenal DJ, was MC'd the entire night wonderfully. Everything was announced on time, correctly, and gave us all of his energy! Our wedding was truly made better from having Hector as our DJ and we can't wait to recommend Hector to everyone we know getting married.
