Sounds Abound

m insanely grateful to have had him for our big day! 

wd to keep the party going. Picking the right DJ was really important to us and Matt exceeded our expectations. 

e very last.  So many of our guests commented how great the music was and how much fun they had…going so far as saying it was the best music ever at a wedding.  Geoff listened intently to us during our planning meetings, took notes and was diligent in understanding our style and vibe.  We had a diverse genre of music from different decades including Christmas music and he wove it all together seamlessly.  Thank you Geoff for helping us make our reception so unforgettable and fun!!!

arket. However, when we came across Sounds Abound, we were immediately interested. After meeting with Tony, we knew we had found our DJ. We knew right away that we were in good hands. I never had to worry about anything music related through the whole process. It was very important to us to have a DJ that did not feel like we were in a club. He’s adaptable and can meet you with any style you desire. He was very professional, on-time, and did everything perfectly. The song selection system was very easy to use and all of our must plays got played. He was a wonderful emcee through the night and everyone raved to us how good the music (and the DJ) was! The dance floor was genuinely never empty. All of our guests had an amazing time. In our ceremony, we had mentioned an anime in our vows; without asking or prompting, Tony played one of the songs from that anime in our dinner music! It was such a thoughtful and sweet gesture that just shows how amazing Tony is. You won’t regret choosing Sounds Abound, as we cannot thank them enough for such an amazing service!

the night so much fun. If you want an incredible DJ, Tony is the one!

d him for both the ceremony and reception and everything was flawless. He even did a great job of getting reluctant guests dancing. Keith was truly the best. He was professional, kind, and on top of everything! I am so glad we booked Sounds Abound.

fectly. He was super involved throughout the night and truly made our wedding so special. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ thank you, Keith, for setting the perfect vibe for our day!

d's wedding in the Chicago suburbs and immediately knew that we wanted him for our wedding someday. Tony is truly a professional and master of his craft. During our planning call, I told him "dance party vibes with no downtime" and he delivered that all night long. There wasn't a single song that had the dance floor empty. He was able to handle last minute changes easily and he was so nice and fun to work with. His set-up was modern and he was able to manage our outdoor ceremony that transitioned to indoor dancing with ease. We all had so much fun and owe a lot of that to Tony!

ff took our playlists and threw in some of his own suggestions to make sure the dance floor was packed all night. We couldn’t be more grateful for him and the whole Sounds Abound team - we couldn’t recommend them more!  

brainer. He was an amazing DJ to work with from start to finish. He answered all of our questions so quickly and never made us feel silly for the things we asked (even when I feel like they might've been). On wedding day he was so sweet when we finally actually met in person, and he definitely knew what he was doing when playing music for the party. For our first dance, we hadn't rehearsed anything or told him how much of the song to play, so when we felt we were done I just motioned to him to cut the song and he joked that we were "out of moves" which I thought was very funny. We also didn't do traditional mother/son or father/daughter dances, but my husband and his mom still wanted a more special song to dance to, and he accommodated this with no judgement at all. If people weren't dancing, he knew to change the song pretty quickly. Some of the songs had specific notes on them, like that if he played Never Gonna Give You Up he had to BLAME the groomsman that requested it which he did, and we had a special requested song for our 10-month-old nephew, but he noticed that he left the party pretty early so he didn't play the song because it would have been weird for everyone else, but he still played The Dinosaur Song by Blippi for our 2-year-old niece who loved it. He also understood our whole timeline and accommodated small changes to the speech schedule, as well as the fact that we were going to sneak out for about a half hour to take photos down the road, so he knew not to play any of our (the bride and groom's) requested songs while we were gone.

had a great connection with DJ Mike Macie. He listened well and proved his statement of “I can find anything” by being able to find literally every single one of our niche, hard to find songs. He had people tearing up the dance floor all night and got nothing but great reviews from our guests. We highly recommend this company and especially Mike. Thank you for making our special day the best day ever.

e had to book them, too. From the start, Tony O. was wonderful to work with. Communication was always timely and efficient, and he went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. When we decided to add uplighting at the last minute and he didn’t have any available, Tony even helped us find another vendor so we could make it happen — such a thoughtful and professional gesture that meant a lot to us! We had Geoff as our DJ and John running the photo booth, and both were incredible. Geoff kept the night running smoothly, checked in with us about small details and last-minute changes, and made sure we always felt included in the flow of the evening. The dance floor was packed all night long — our guests are still talking about how much fun they had! Their online planning system is also super user-friendly. It made it easy to select our “must play” songs, note songs we didn’t want to hear, and organize all the key moments (first dance, father-daughter dance, etc.). It took so much stress off our shoulders, and the night couldn’t have gone more smoothly. I can’t recommend Sounds Abound enough — from start to finish, they were professional, organized, and genuinely cared about making our day unforgettable.

planning website, it allowed us to make our wedding unique to our music taste. Our DJ Geoff kept the dance floor packed all night and brought awesome energy to the reception. The photobooth was also a huge hit with our guests and was well worth adding on. We had an absolute blast thanks to the Sounds Abound team, and their services were worth every penny. We highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding!

I really appreciated. All the music throughout the night was exactly what we wanted and sounded amazing. He even made sure to play plenty of songs from my favorite artist, which was such a thoughtful touch! He also snapped a picture for his social media that ended up being one of our favorites from the day. Mike was such a hit too — he was amazing, made sure everyone knew what to do at the photo booth, and kept it fun for our guests all night long. We’re so glad we went with Sounds Abound for both — they truly helped make the night unforgettable!

playlist. I'm so glad we went with him. Sounds Abound was also fantastic - they responded to my emails within like an hour with all the information we needed. We also did uplighting and the photo booth, and I am so glad that we did it with them, they made everything so great. Hearing of other DJ experiences and how people didn't get what they wanted with other companies, we are so grateful for this team who gave my husband and I everything we wanted and more - we couldn't be happier with having Sounds Abound for our special day.

ond. Starting with the owner, Tony, his communication was incredible - he was so quick to respond to every email with a solution. Tony was also so accommodating and willing to support in whatever we needed help with, which was so appreciated in the stressfulness of wedding planning. We had multiple uniquely edited files that he worked with us to incorporate into our wedding, helped incorporate cultural music, and answered every question. Our DJ, Tim, was also amazing. I had several specific requests and only had to go over everything one time and he had it down. He was attentive, detail oriented, and actually cared about our wedding going according to how we wanted it. In fact, even when it started raining in what I hoped would be an outdoor ceremony, Tim stayed out there and was willing to accommodate to whatever we wanted for our day. Additionally, several things ended up not going according to plan during our ceremony but Tim was so attentive to everything going on that he seamlessly adjusted the music to the point where no one could tell. Tim also did a great job keeping the dance floor alive, adjusting music as needed, throwing in some cultural music that we had requested, and overall having a fun mix for our guests. Overall, such a great company and group of people- highly highly recommend!!

run smoothly and stress-free. His professionalism stood out—he was courteous and engaging with all of our guests, making everyone feel welcome and included. The music selection was incredible! He played a great mix of songs that appealed to all ages and kept the dance floor packed all night long. The energy never dropped, and our guests are still talking about how much fun they had. If you’re looking for a DJ who is organized, professional, and knows how to keep the party going, I highly recommend Sounds Abound!

the time to get to know us individually and as a couple. He asked thoughtful questions and used our answers to craft a beautifully personalized ceremony that we will remember forever. He was always professional, punctual, prepared, and brought a joyful, friendly energy that truly made the day special. We also rented the photo booth from him, and his assistant who ran it was incredibly kind and accommodating. It wasn’t just your typical photo booth either — we were able to create fun boomerangs and use a variety of digital backgrounds, which added so much to the experience for us and our guests. Music was one of the most important parts of the day for us, and Tony absolutely nailed it at the reception. He gave us great suggestions for our first dances and curated a playlist that kept our guests — including me, the bride! — dancing all night long. He was also an excellent MC, smoothly guiding the flow of the evening and keeping the energy high. We would recommend Tony without hesitation — again and again. He gave us his all, and it truly made our wedding unforgettable.

ff took the time to talk to us and knew our vibe completely. The Photo Booth was awesome, guests had so much fun and Joe was so helpful. I would recommend them to anyone!!

d all night, and multiple guests told us it was the best reception they’ve ever been to. He even went above and beyond to let a Pleneros band play for 30 minutes to honor my husband’s Puerto Rican tradition, which meant so much to us. He also trimmed our first dance songs so seamlessly, as we didn't want them to be too long! On top of that, the Photo Booth was such a hit—our guests loved it, and it’s been so fun seeing all the pictures afterward. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ experience. Highly recommend!

eoff using some guest requested songs (we added a song request option when they RSVPed) & his own song choices to match the vibe. The night was absolutely perfect and our friends and family are all saying it was the best wedding party they’ve been to in a long time (or ever!). Thank you Geoff for the incredible time! We’re so glad we chose you to make our day so special.

ding, and we are so glad we were able to work with them! Our DJ, Brian, was amazing, and he made sure that our wedding was filled with all of our favorite songs all night long! He took all of our requests and wove them into the night perfectly! I cannot recommend working with Sounds Abound enough!!

off was the first vendor we booked because we knew we wanted a full and fun dance floor. From the moment it opened to the last song of the night the dance floor was full of fun and questionable dance moves. We had an immense number of guests comment on how amazing the DJ and music was throughout the reception. Since our wedding (2.5 weeks ago) a couple guests have even reached out inquiring how to book Geoff for their upcoming weddings. Aside from Geoffs amazing DJ skills, he was attentive and communicative with my husband and I's requests. Geoff was able to calmly command the reception attention for speeches, as well as hype the crowd up on the dance floor. Working with Sounds Abound was easy and seamless throughout the entire process, we had immense faith in their abilities and would recommend them for any event!

as crowded from start to finish. For how expensive everything with weddings can be, Sounds Abound is a cost effective vendor I’ve been recommending to everyone. Highly recommend!!!

tly while keeping everyone on the dance floor dancing.

ast minute stress and ensures a successful event. Mike was early, prepared, and was engaged with the guests. It was a great event and we highly recommend Sounds Abound!

le to provide a Spotify playlist of Indian music so that could be played in addition to the rest of his set and he did a fantastic job of reading the room and knowing what to play when. I also appreciated what a great MC he was!

business. Our DJ for our wedding was Tim Yach. He was incredible! The dance floor was never empty and everyone complimented how awesome his playlist was. Going in, we only had a few requests, but he worked with what we wanted and mixed songs to make them blend seamless and keep people wanting more! It was everything we want for our wedding night and more! We even had a guest get his business card for her future wedding!

nds Abound again without a doubt. 11/10 highly recommend!

nline portal is easy to use and helps keep everything organized. The day of the wedding, Tony did more than just DJ for us. He kept us on schedule. He captured so many amazing moments throughout the night on video. He also kept our dance floor full. We truly danced all night long and that is all thanks to Tony. He went above and beyond for us. I would highly recommend Tony for any event and hope to work with him again in the future.

nitely recommend!

he best songs, had the best transitions, and had our guests singing and dancing the entire time. Guests of all ages were out there dancing and having the night of their lives. Our wedding was nearly a month ago, and guests are still telling us it was the best wedding they have ever been to! Tim received so many compliments. Tim is also an amazing MC and has a phenomenal speaking voice. He kept everything running smoothly - from speeches and first dances to the bouquet toss - giving us total peace of mind throughout the night. We knew we were in great hands. We’re also beyond grateful for Tony and Nicole, who helped coordinate everything behind the scenes. Their organization, communication, and support throughout the entire process was so helpful! Thank you so much Tim, Nicole, Tony, and Sounds Abound. We had the best night of our lives, and couldn’t have done without you!!!

that was provided was also a hit at our wedding. Highly recommend his services!

peeches, dances, and the rest of the party were flawless! He kept the party going all night! Highly recommend Sounds Abound and definitely recommend Matt!!

exact requests were included! He was AMAZING during the ceremony and reception and totally leaned into the vibes that we wanted for the night! We got so many compliments from our guests about how awesome our DJ was and how we had the best dance floor ever! I’m so happy we were able to work with Tony and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for great wedding vibes !

I was supposed to walk out to as the bride was switched with my bridesmaids processional song. For our first dance song, I had requested a specific acoustic version, but instead it was an instrumental version. Just a few mix ups. Photo Booth was great.
