Tom was so great and easy to work with! We used their DJ services for both the ceremony and the reception. Our ceremony and reception have a few hiccups, but our DJ was right on top of it. He did an amazing job and we couldn't be happier! Thank you so much!

Tom at Music Connection was incredible to work with! He was easy to communicate with and plan with prior to our wedding day. He made sure everything ran smoothly during our reception and played great music that kept the dance floor packed all night. Tom went above and beyond to make sure our reception was everything we dreamed of!

Tom at Music Connection is an absolute pleasure to work with! We used Music Connection for our photobooth, Tom worked with us and allowed us to be creative in how we wanted our pictures printed and he went above and beyond to help make our day so special! We would recommend him to all of our friends!

Tom at Music Connection did a great job of emceeing for the night! At our timeline meeting, he was very organized and even had suggestions that made our ceremony and reception flow more smoothly. We also got a photobooth, which the guests loved! Music Connection is the best DJ service in the quad cities, and we would definitely recommend them!

Tom the owner was so nice to work with. He provided great music, lighting, and DJ work! Made our wedding so much fun! The company is very professional, gives great ideas and advice, knows all the venues in town, and provides quality work. They don't advertise for themselves with big signs or announcements through the night like some of the competitors do. Sound was great too, not too loud where you can't hear people talk, but the right volume that you could hear throughout the room. Don't look anywhere else!

Music Connection was amazing to work with and makes your reception super fun!! They kept people on the dance floor all night long and everyone had a blast. Reasonably priced and exceeded our expectations!

My husband chose Music Connection, and I was so pleased with his choice! Our DJ (think his name was Tom) did a fantastic job! He talked to us through Skype about a week before the ceremony and went over the plan with us. This made us feel so confident in the plan for the reception, which went just perfectly. Many of my guests actually came up to me to tell me that they really enjoyed the music during the reception. Music kept people out on the floor the whole reception, and everyone was tired of dancing after the event!

Jim Rio and Music Connection did an outstanding job with the entertainment for our wedding in October 2016!!! It was one of the best decisions we made to have Jim as our DJ because he is experienced, professional, kind, responsive, fun and very easy to work with. Jim has done several events for my family over the years, and when our reception vendor recommended him also, it was a no brainer. Jim provided extra uplighting for the venue walls, dance floor lighting, and extra speakers (because he had DJd at our large reception venue before and knew exactly how to get the perfect sound to fill the large space with cocktail party Music, dinner music, and music that brought the party throughout the evening)! Jim provides playlists so you have an idea of what songs other couples had during their receptions....this was extremely helpful because it reminded my husband and I of all the great classics and hits that we wanted to include, but otherwise might not have remembered without a list. Jim was also kind enough to cut music for us so that each of our bridal party couples could be introduced to a unique song. He made suggestions for the timeline of the evening and did a great job emceeing and keeping things moving throughout the night. Our wedding was an absolute blast and people did not leave the dance floor because we had a great DJ. After we returned from our honeymoon guests were telling us how great of a DJ we had. We highly recommend Jim Rio for your wedding and party needs! Read Less

Justin was incredible and we were extremely pleased with how well he managed the reception schedule. We were fortunate to meet Justin before our wedding so he really understood our desire to have a personalized, laid back yet fun reception. He accomplished our wish and kept the dance floor hoping all night.

They mispronounced my fist name as they introduced the wedding party. Also, I had emailed them a list of songs/artists to play during dinner and I didn't hear any of them until I had a bridesmaid ask him to play the list. Other than those two things, they were great.

Our DJ, Justin, was great to work with. We met with him before the wedding and were able to discuss all the special additions we would have to our event. He was very diligent and asked a lot of questions to make sure he understood all the customs and traditions that we wanted to incorporate. The day of the event he was great and helped us stay on track ;)
