We had a great experience with Todd. After our initial call with him, to the wedding night, Todd…read moreexceeded our expectations. Our wedding was a small, 50-person event with both indoor and outdoor spaces in River North. Todd worked with that perfectly, providing a seamless sound system for both areas, along with a mic/stand for our vows and headset mic for the officiant. On the wedding day, we were running a bit flustered from photos when we arrived to the event space. We had not had a chance to meet Todd before that but once we arrived, he immediately put us at ease. He was already set up, dressed well, and greeted us in a warm, professional manner. He guided us through every moment of the night, from announcements to the first dances and cake cutting. It was a huge relief for the day. One of our biggest fears was that people may not dance much, especially with guests from different backgrounds. But Todd was exceptional at reading the room and getting the party started. He had excellent music selection and judgment. We gave him a small list of songs, including Albanian and Russian songs. He knew exactly when to play them, and our guests were on the dance floor until midnight. We received so many compliments on how much fun the DJ made the night. If you want a DJ who is professional, a great communicator, and an expert at keeping the energy high, Todd is a great choice!

He stepped in to help us DJ our dance on the last night of camp days before the event when we weren't sure if we could find a DJ last minute. Jason was new to us and was able to understand our needs quickly and adjust on the spot when things came up that night we needed. He went out of his way to add to the fun with special contests and made it easy for campers to request songs, even going out to the cabins to ask them directly to make sure everyone had the opportunity, We're so thankful to have Laser Sounds referred to us and hope to have them back at camp for years to come!!

We booked Tim with The Record Shop for our combined wedding ceremony+reception this past weekend…read more He came highly recommended from a trusted friend - and I'm incredibly glad we picked him. Don't let the relative lack of Yelp reviews put you off - he knows what he's doing. We met Tim once in person, and once via FaceTime. Each time I left with the impression that he's a person that just *understands* music at a deep level - and that's what you want in a DJ. Someone who can read the room and play the *right* song. We ended up trusting Tim to just play what he thought was right - we gave him a list of songs we liked, but other than that let him pick the music. It turned out to be the right choice - our dance floor was packed for hours, until we turned the lights up and made people leave! Some other things are notable too - Tim was very helpful when picking out a "first dance" song; he was able to provide good music at the very last minute for walking in/out of the ceremony (because we forgot to pick something!). He kept sneaking us drinks whenever he saw we were out. He coordinated a surprise as well - my now-husband sang a song to me on the dance floor. He kept it a secret and worked it in at the right time, and it made the night just that much better. I can't recommend him enough. He made our event so much better than it ever would have been without him!

He let us choose the time and location for our first introductory meeting and really took the time to get to know our story as a couple and understand what we wanted for our special day. He followed up to make sure we were on track and even gave us great song recommendations whenever we felt stuck or disagreed. Tim, thank you for going above and beyond to make our wedding day so unforgettable. We truly couldn't have had the day we did without you. Not only was he an incredible DJ, but he was also an amazing MC professional, engaging, and always keeping everything running smoothly and on time. If you need a wedding DJ, party DJ, or even someone for your next house event call Tim! From the ceremony to the very last dance, everything flowed perfectly, and he played such a huge part in making it all feel so special. His energy set the tone for the entire celebration, and we're still hearing from guests about how amazing the music was and how much fun they had on the dance floor. If you're looking for someone who can keep the vibe high and make your day unforgettable, Tim is the one. Highly recommend!

He kept everyone on track with the timeline even when we were not ready or very organized about it. I am Indian and we have hard names to pronounce.

Since he told me to find another DJ I did just that so we were set with Jaz Entertainment (Carlos is awesome). A-List sent a DJ at 6:30pm along with John's sidekick to ask if we still wanted their services. They tried to get me to say I didn't need a DJ but that isn't accurate since I did need a DJ and that's what I contracted them for.
