Tony was an absolute dream to work with from the minute I inquired about pricing. He responded…read morealmost immediately with package prices, and answer any odd questions I had at the start of wedding planning. The booking process was simple and all done via computer. Once we made our first deposit, Tony sent us login info for our online client data base, which we were able to make our "must play, maybe play, and absolutely do not play" playlists. I LOVED that we were able to organize the music in this way, as I was much more at ease for what the evening would look like. For the entire year of our engagement, Tony responded to all emails within an instant. For my father-daughter dance, I had arranged it with my dad that he was to choose a song, and it would be a surprise to me up until the minute it played at our reception. Tony and my dad corresponded back and forth without me knowing, and this was pulled off without any issues! The day of our reception, which was the first time I was even meeting Tony, he put me at immediate ease. He came up to my fiance and I, introduced himself, and quickly ran through how the evening would go. I was worried about the amount of talking via DJ would be taking place (I HATE going to weddings and the DJ acts more like an emcee the entire night, rather than a DJ) but Tony was PERFECT. He checked in with us throughout the night and everything went as planned. Another thing I loved about this company was the way in which songs transitioned into each other. There was not a second where one song would end and silence took place. Each song went straight into the next. Our dance floor was full ALL NIGHT LONG! We also used Extreme Sounds for our reception uplighting. I had been emailing with Tony up until days before our wedding trying to nail down the color I was going for. I sent Tony two pictures of what I was going for, he said he would make it happen, and it was the exact amber color I was envisioning!

Tony is EXTREMELY dishonest and has horrible communication. For example, Tony said he is on the…read morevendor list for Trump Tower, Signature 95th, and Lasalle library. I checked all of their websites and/or called for references, and they each never heard of Tony or his company. Tony will also ignore you for days/weeks, even after multiple messages. I highly recommend avoiding this company that is deceptive, lies, and does not respond. RE: Business Owner's Reply- I do not know how you are surprised after ignoring me multiple times when I was ready to move forward with reviewing a contract. You ignored me over 2 weeks and we had a professional relationship. You also gave me 3 Wedding Venues that you said you are "preferred vendor" for, without me asking. I checked all 3 of them and you clearly lied to me. Also, Tony, you response to my review says "some of our reviews tells you that our customers were referred by their venues". This is factually incorrect of your Yelp reviews. I checked all 80 of them. None do. Another lie here.

I reached out and had an initial consultation call for my wedding in June. After the call, I was…read moretold I would receive a proposal, but more than two weeks passed without anything being sent. I followed up and was told I would receive the proposal by the end of the day, but I never heard back. I reached out multiple times over the following two weeks to everyone I had been in contact with and did not receive a single response. This lack of communication was extremely disappointing and felt unprofessional for a service costing $5,000+. I would not feel confident hiring a vendor who communicates this poorly for such an important event.

So I wait until October 17th and still receive no quote, so I reach out to them to express the urgency I needed this and that I was frustrated it was taking so long just to get an estimate that I was told would be sent over same day.. And they just didn't respond. Seems unprofessional considering they expect a 5k minimum just to book.

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!

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!

Alright, James has this down to a science. I've never hired or even seen a dj like this. You need a…read moredj, stop looking right now and go with him. So at first we walked into his office you see he has won awards. First thought was he is going to cost a lot. I'll tell you this right now, he was cheaper than the dj I hired 14 years ago. He gives you a timeline and explains everything into great detail. This guy has done thousands of weddings. You see it at the presentation and you can tell when he is doing it at the wedding. So onto the wedding, I don't want to bore you will all the planning details but trust me, it was easy. You'll have no problem with that. He explains everything to you and when he's doing it. Right before dinner we played a game called quest. He usually does it later but people had already been drinking and our ceremony was done sooner due to the weather. Right off the bat, he got people involved and I've never seen so many people cheer there person on. This game was outstanding because now people loved the reception right off the bat and could not wait until what the rest of the night would bring. I just cannot explain what he did for our wedding in words. He gets everyone involved. Dance floor was rocking the entire time. Hell even I attempted to dance and sing. Obviously not good at it. He's got games, there is a timeline that you get and he follows it to a t. If you don't know what song to use at a certain time, he can help you with that. My mom and mother in law have said this was the best dj they have ever seen. I agree. If you think there is better out there, you are wrong. Use him and use him now. P.S. If you use Versace on the floor for the garter toss, he got that idea from us. He said he was going to put it down on his list.
