Pete's My DJ

e!) to the big day, we had the opportunity to select songs that were must plays, banned (sorry YMCA), and all the songs that were part of our ceremony and first dances. Pete kept the energy alive and was SO SO PLEASANT to work with. Our day wouldn’t have been the same without him, so make sure you get him while you can! Thank you Pete ❤️

sonable, and attentive to every detail. He took the time to understand our music preferences and the overall vibe we wanted for our big day, and he absolutely delivered. The dance floor was PACKED the entire night! Pete knew exactly how to read the crowd and keep the energy alive, seamlessly transitioning between songs and genres to make sure every guest—from kids to grandparents—had a blast. The sound quality and lighting setup were perfect, creating the ultimate party atmosphere. Pete also went above and beyond during the ceremony and reception, ensuring everything flowed smoothly. His timing and coordination with our other vendors were flawless, which took so much stress off our shoulders. If you’re looking for a DJ who will make your wedding unforgettable, look no further than Pete’s My DJ. We are still hearing rave reviews from our guests about how much fun they had. Thank you, Pete, for making our wedding an absolute dream!

cess easy and stress free, but we couldn’t have asked for better day of service. My husband’s mom had a special last minute request to play a rooster crow for introductions into the reception as a memory of her husband and Pete happily made it happen as well as quite a few of our other requests. He understood the crowd and kept the party going all night long! Our wedding was the 3rd wedding we experienced with Pete as the DJ and each one has been amazing, receiving lots of compliments on music, announcements, and organization. We love Pete so much and cannot recommend him enough

ing too strong he is your guy! Our wedding was on a Sunday, which means lots of people were only intending on staying until 9 at the latest. Well- say that to our packed dance floor at 11 when our wedding was wrapping up. Out of everything in our wedding we have been told repeatedly by our guest how much fun was had and they always mention how great Pete was! Then to our surprise we had photos that he captured the next day to save for our memories on Facebook. If you want a fun loving guy who knows how to keep the party going. Pete is your guy!

for our wedding! From the very first meeting, Peter was professional, attentive, and genuinely excited about my playlist (which I painstakingly and carefully curated for over a year now big deal;)) and I know this sounds like a given, but *he actually played most of my songs* (which by the way, most DJs just throw out your playlist and do whatever they want but not Peter-this guy blended our favorite songs with crowd-pleasers that kept everyone dancing all night long and it was refreshing to not do any of the cliche line dancing songs for once 😅 On the day of the wedding, Peter arrived early, set up efficiently, and ensured everything ran smoothly. He was outside running the music and volume before the ceremony, then during the "speeches", he got it going and was there to "help pass the mic", but as soon as it was flowing... he "disappeared himself" back behind his booth. Sometimes (many times) I think DJs say some pretty sappy, silly stuff to "introduce" people and the First Dance - and all that - which he did a bit of, but not in a cringy way- and he was super respectful and very easy to get along with. Most DJs like that are never trained in "what to say" in those moments, they're just coppying the “play book" handed down from every other sappy wedding, so I was relieved when Peter just did his thing and let the party go on its natural course without all the gimmicky nonsense. Guests are STILL raving about how much fun they had on the dance floor! If you're looking for a DJ who can read the room and create an unforgettable atmosphere, look no further. We highly recommend Peter—he truly made our wedding magical! 🌹✨😎

eing busy with other wedding planning, we didn’t provide him a list of songs for the reception. I won’t lie, I was a little nervous because my side of the family is Mexican and my husband’s side is Italian/American. I had absolutely nothing to worry about! PETE HAD THE DANCE FLOOR GOING ALL NIGHT! I couldn’t be happier with how the night went. I also love how Pete helps guide everything at the wedding. He made sure I wasn’t stressed at all and reassured me before the grand entrances and first dances. Can’t thank Pete enough! A DJ can literally make or break a wedding in my opinion.

know the venue super well, but that didn't matter. Pete was very on top of everything. I didn't feel any bit of doubt that the ceremony and reception wouldn't be great. We had a call a few days before my wedding and made sure the app he had for all the music we wanted to be played was good to go. Day of Pete set up with my pastor, and the event staff beforehand, making sure the mics were good in both rooms and the dance floor was all set. The music was amazing, he took our selection and added to it, making the dance floor filled all night long! I barely left! Thank you so much Pete, I cannot thank you enough!!

losely with us to make sure we had the best possible experience.

r prior and had loved his energy and vibe from the moment we met him. He utilizes an app that makes it so easy to plan all the important parts of the day with songs of your choice. His communication is great and he seems truly excited to help you have a good wedding day. He is organized, professional and so so friendly! He helped to keep our dance floor full and really seemed to read the room and play things that kept the party going! The photobooth that came with his DJ set up was a hit with our family and friends and loved that we could see all the pics our guests took. We highly recommend him!!

g. His app used to plan our music and how it incorporated into our day was beyond helpful, and it was so incredible to know that everything we'd need was taken care of!

communication leading up to the wedding. His music app is very user friendly and is an easy way to organize the ceremony/cocktail hour playlists. He made sure our transitions between ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner speeches, and dancing all went smoothly and he kept our dance floor packed the entire evening - all of our friends have come back to remark how much fun the night was and how much they loved the music. Highly recommend!

dding day. He really goes above and beyond, paying attention to all details. On our wedding day, he met with our friend who was officiating for the very first time, making sure he was feeling comfortable with everything, asked if there was anything he could do to help, and let him know he’d be there to step in and take over for any announcements, etc if need be. When he noticed my husband and I didn’t have drinks for toasts, he ran and got some for us and continued to check in throughout dinner! From the very start, Pete is on top of things!! As soon as the dance floor opened, he got the party started and everyone had a blast ALL NIGHT LONG. I don’t think we ever took a break from dancing! We feel so incredibly lucky to have had Pete as our DJ. BOOK PETE!! You won’t regret it!!

we had a few songs that we wanted played at specific times and he already knew exactly how we wanted those songs played. We really enjoyed using the app that he had sent us, as it laid everything out and we didn't realize all the music we needed to have. Pete did such a wonderful job, and he even stuck around to play us our last final dance (just us, bride & groom, no one around), which is something we were unsure we would be able to do. Pete is top-notch and we highly recommend him.

for it! When it was time get the party going he knew exactly what to play. The music was perfect the entire wedding! I cannot recommend the Photo Booth package enough. I have gotten SO MANY compliments from my guests that the Photo Booth was their favorite thing! Having access to the entire Photo Booth gallery is awesome. I love seeing all the guest having fun with it! I would recommend Pete to anyone getting married!

right after and he was already booked for a wedding on the same day. (NO SURPRISE THERE) He seriously went out of his way to help me find another DJ and gave me recommendations. He was so understanding of what I was personally looking for, personable, and helpful. I am just kicking myself for not getting to him sooner! AMAZING GUY with AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!

o requests, and had us all scream-singing along. Absolutely the best. Thank you!!

weren't necessarily looking for a photo booth, however the one he provides is so interactive, easy and fun! We got such good pics and gifs out of it, which the photos surprising printed fabulously. We had a few hidden gems that he helped us execute wonderfully as well. I would absolutely recommend Pete for any wedding.

e vibe of the reception and are instrumental in keeping things running smoothly. Our dance floor was filled much of the night. We love that Pete not only knows music and how to keep a party going, but also included a photo booth (BIG hit at our wedding) and sound setup for our ceremony/reception, and had us use an easy and helpful mobile app to answer logistic questions and set songs for first dance, processional, etc. This helped with communication and organization, and ensured we didn’t forget anything. He is a skilled professional, listened to what we wanted, was available for questions as needed, and set a final meeting to go over what we wanted for our night. Truly great energy, and we had a wild party. Thanks Pete!

inator, he always made time to answer questions, calm any worries, and make sure that every piece of the day was aligned. As our DJ, Pete was extremely organized, perceptive, and knew how to keep the dance floor rockin’! We are so glad we entrusted Pete with our big day. He truly went above and beyond during our reception by graciously giving a pair of his noise-canceling headphones to my now-husband’s sister who has Autism when he learned she had forgotten her headphones at the hotel. This small gesture not only made her happy, but it meant so much to us that she could keep dancing and having fun. Pete helped make her feel comfortably in a very sensory-overloaded environment. We really couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you Pete!

a wedding, with suggestions as well, that made it so much easier picking music. We didn’t realize how daunting choosing the music for our wedding would be, but the app totally made it more manageable. From start to finish, it’s obvious Pete goes above and beyond for his couples- not only from a DJ standpoint, but in general, even including checking on us during dinner to see if we needed drinks or anything. He was very attentive to what we wanted in terms of music at our wedding and his music selection was perfect! We got so many compliments about Pete, particularly from our family members, who were SO impressed by how awesome he was. It’s also worth mentioning from an equipment standpoint, he has such an awesome set up and is prepared for everything- he does not take providing high-quality music lightly. During our wedding, we had an outdoor space for games and for some reason, the music wasn’t playing in that area. Without any hesitation, Pete magically came up with an extra set up for music in the space and it was perfect. He truly contributed in such a huge way to making our day special. And a super special thank you for thinking to set up one of our cell phones to record our private last dance- a touch we never would’ve thought of and it’s easily my favorite memory of our wedding. I’ve rewatched it so many times and it’s something we wouldn’t have had if it weren’t for his suggestion. When researching a DJ for our wedding, it stood out to us that Pete has so many reviews that aren’t just good, but are absolute RAVE reviews, and after having the pleasure of working with him, we TOTALLY get it! He’s amazing. BOOK PETE- you won’t regret it! Thank you again, Pete! Mr & Mrs Wallace

expertise kept our guests dancing all evening. Cannot recommend him enough!!!

to have an epic party, and Pete delivered! I don't think there was a single time when our dance floor wasn't packed! Pete's app for choosing songs really made this a simple process. But if you have any questions, he was there for help! Other than your typical songs you have to pick yourself, I really put my trust in Pete to do his thing! Knowing he would take care of good music for cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing, really helped keep stress off of us! Pete also helped be a point of contact during the day for our family helping set up at our venue since he is there a lot, and he even offered to get us drinks during our dinner so we wouldn't have to get up. His set up, and uplighting were beautiful. Pete is more than just a guy turning tables, he really loves his job and he really cares! Can't thank you enough, Pete! Can we do it again?!

as booking him back when he did my friends wedding about 6 years ago. He was super attentive and detail oriented then and was for my wedding as well! When I contacted Pete about doing my wedding, he was super great about meeting up and getting all the get to know you details. He gave me and my husband an app that helped to track all the music and details for the big day and was a life saver! He then did check up calls to make sure we were OK and staying on track and to offer any help if we needed it. Fast forward to the big day! Pete was on time and super professional and very helpful. He even had a photo booth that was a part of my package and showed me how to use it (and it was a huge hit!) He and my day of planner were on top of everything. He played all the music perfectly for the ceremony and dinner! We had a lot of different things going on at our wedding and he still kept people on the dance floor all night! Thank you for everything Pete! You are the best DJ ever and I'm glad you were a part of our special day and making it so successful!

as available for phone meetings, and really helped answer any question I had as well as give advice when I asked for it. He also went above and beyond with the setup including coordinating lighting ,a mic for the ceremony, and an epic Photo Booth. The music was perfect and kept everyone on the dance floor all night long! He even let me grab the mic and perform Cher in front of my family and friends 😂 We had the absolute best time and we couldn’t have done it without Pete!! I would recommend Pete’s My DJ to anyone and everyone. He’s truly passionate about his work and very professional as well. We would give him higher than a 5 star rating if it was possible. If we could do it all over again we would hire Pete again and again without a doubt! THANKS PETE!

ong choices to. On the big day, he worked flawlessly with our venue and other vendors to help move things along. Thanks to his help and great organization we did not feel the need to hire a day-of-wedding coordinator. He was very flexible as well! I got sick in-between the first dances with my husband and our parents and he was able to switch modes on the fly to give me some breathing space before we could continue. When not too many people were dancing yet, we were a little worried, but we had nothing to fear because Pete knew exactly how to get everyone on the dance floor! Definitely go with Pete, he has great knowledge/is able to read the room, is very very kind, and helps throw a great party.

n app where we could download all our music, timeline, etc. which made the whole process so much easier. He was very responsive and paid attention to the details so once we relayed any information we could forget it because he wouldn’t. His dj recommendation was amazing. She was friendly, professional, fun and made us feel at ease so we felt comfortable letting her take the reins for the night. It was obvious she communicated with Pete because she had the details down also. Truly an amazing experience.

a bit of a tipsy best man), but he kept the party lively and had everyone on the dance floor the entire time!! We had a hard stop time for our venue and he made sure everyone was ready to leave on time. He played great music and totally matched the vibe for every step of our reception. He also had an app that we could upload our music choices to before hand!!!! Pete was consistent with communication and checked in with us multiple times before our wedding too! 1000000/10 for Pete!!!

to go over details on the timing of everything for the evening. He utilizes an app where my wife and I uploaded songs for our night. Pete also did a great job the night of the wedding in helping MC throughout the night. Pete has a welcoming personality and connected with the guests well throughout the night. He made sure the sound was ready and worked during the ceremony and reception and also provided uplighting which really added a great element to the ceremony. Pete was very familiar with our venue at Starved Rock which helped the day and evening run smoothly. We highly recommend Pete's my DJ for weddings, we are very happy we had him at our wedding.

e day we got married, and answered all of our questions in a timely manner. One thing I learned while wedding planning and going to other weddings is who you choose as your DJ is one of the most important decisions you will make; who you select can make or break your wedding. I did not sit down a single time during reception once I got on the dance floor and most people didn’t either; it was one of the best things to see….especially at my wedding. I credit all of that to Pete! He played the best songs AND played all of the songs I wanted to play during reception, cocktail hour, and the prelude to the ceremony too. If you want someone who knows their stuff, can read a crowd and get anyone up on the dance floor, you need DJ Pete. Very thankful for everything he did for us for our wedding and 10/10 would recommend to everyone to use for their wedding!

videography. He made the whole process super easy for us. His hard work and dedication definitely didn’t go unnoticed. If you want the best night reach out to Pete and book him before it’s too late!

cting music. He was also incredibly helpful the day of the wedding and communicated so well with our other vendors to make sure the day ran as smoothly as possible. Lastly, he played amazing music and our dance floor was completely packed the entire evening. We recommend him for anyone looking for a fun and stress free day! Thank you so much Pete!!

go through the timeline of things and make sure he had down everything we wanted. Our Venue was pushing for their DJ service they use, but I am so happy we went with Pete! The floor was full the entire night, and he kept the night fun for everyone. Being in my mid 20’s, I have plenty of friends that are getting married soon. I’ve recommended Pete to all of them…and some of them have specifically gone out of their way and asked “who was that DJ for your wedding?” The big day is very stressful, and Pete makes sure that everything runs smoothly.

ty going so that dancing didn't stop all night! He also had the perfect photo booth set up! Would highly recommend!!

ttle late in submitting some song suggestions (Sorry about that Pete :)!!) and he was so accommodating and understanding. Everyone at the wedding was raving about the music!! I will be recommending him to everyone I know getting married moving forward. I truly can not thank Pete enough for helping to make our day so special!!

re we kept to our timeline and our vendors knew the plan. The next day all our guests could talk about was how much fun our wedding was and I owe that to Pete!

py, he truly went above and beyond. At one point of the night he even improvised our generational dance in a way that the longest tenured marriage in the room could give us advice, which was so special. I would recommend him a thousand times over!

w to get the party going and keep it going. He was such a pleasure to work with and definitely would recommend him to anyone who wants a stress free/easy planning process and wedding

y, I was always confident my day would be flawless. His up-lighting is gorgeous and makes the room look complete. His equipment was TOP NOTCH. Pete had me covered in 3 different areas without any issues. He knows how to read the crowd and will get people up (even the ones who might be a little hesitant. He knows what I am talking about). Pete felt like an extension of my family and friends on my special day. I honestly cannot say how exceptional his services were. You will not be disappointed. I 100% would hire him again, and 10/10 service. OH, and how can I forget? The photo booth was so much fun! Our guests loved it. Thank you for everything, Pete! It was the best night of my life. BONUS-- This man can throw down on some house music. We closed it down club style, and it was PERFECTION.

for your big day. When I was reviewing it, I was like “wow I would have never thought of that” which was really refreshing because I feel that Pete was able to cover it all. Pete always made my husband and I feel welcomed and excited about our music as well. He boasted about our music which made my husband and I so excited to work with Pete. Not only did he love our music but he also worked with us to make sure our special requests were made. Pete also made sure that everything we wanted to get done, got done in a timely and efficient manner. He was always on time and always communicating with my husband and I about what are the next steps and what else he could do to help us. Pete also went above and beyond because he was able to video tape my husbands and I last private dance together and our sparkler send off since our photographers were not there anymore. Pete combined the two videos together and sent it to me because he knew how important those two last events were to us. Don’t second guess, just book Pete as your DJ! He will do everything in his power to ensure your day is special. Thank you again Pete! :)

eally knows what he’s doing. Not to mention the extras he brought to make the sound system at our wedding TOP NOTCH. The music was amazing, and exactly what I wanted. He really listens to what you want and runs with it. He knows what he’s doing. BOOK HIM NOW. you won’t be sorry. Thanks again, Pete!!!

d from the start of the night all the way to the last song. He was so helpful with the planning process and introduced us to this App to select songs for all of the important parts of our day! We hope we're lucky enough to attend other weddings with Pete as the DJ in the future to dance the night away! Super professional, organized and so friendly!

planning process and through the wedding day Pete was incredibly helpful, friendly and profession. The app he showed us to help with the planning process and song selection was so awesome. Our wedding day was more amazing than we could have imagined and a giant part of that was having Pete there to help with the process, timeline and even last minute changes. Our dance floor was packed and truly so much fun. There were multiple times when I just took a step back, looking at everyone dancing, laughing and so full of joy that I started crying happy tears. You can tell he has a true passion for what he does and so incredibly talented. We are so thankful Pete was part of our day!

e to have him. He could have left it at that but he went ahead and not only recommended other DJs to me but actually reached out to them for me. I had 4 other DJs email me and I didn’t have to start a conversation with any of them. I have never had another professional do that for me and it’s just a testament to how amazing he is!

available to connect whether via phone or in person. Keeping the dance floor busy was super important to us, and Pete knew exactly what jams would keep our favorite people groovin.' We loved that he gave us the space to select must-have songs, yet also provided helpful recommendations in addition to running with his own list based on our music style. He even provided a sample timeline for us to build on which was so helpful. Pete is not only a very talented DJ, but is a great emcee who is incredibly professional, genuine and downright awesome. We received so many compliments from friends + family, and can't recommend him enough!! THANK YOU, Pete, for helping to make our wedding day so incredibly special!!!

e songs were played and added in so many great ones that we forgot about. He also did an amazing job of reading the room- when a song didn't hit with our group he transitioned quickly so the dance floor vibes never died. I cannot recommend his services enough.
