    Memory Makers is amazing! We had a multicultural wedding (white and Hispanic) and the dance floor was packed the entire night! DJ Andre was extremely nice and patient with us, and worked the dance floor like a pro! You can't go wrong with any of the DJs that are a part of Memory Makers. They offer a great value with tons of experience and high quality equipment. Would recommend to anyone looking to have a memorable wedding!

    We had DJ Dean for our wedding music, cocktail hour/dinner music, MC services, and reception dance music. I was very pleased with Dean's responsiveness, professionalism, and willingness to have fun with us! Thanks Dean and Memory Makers for being a part of the best day of our lives!

    The owner is a bit difficult to get ahold of, we had a DJ change the week of our event which did not make me happy because the owner didn't notify us so the morning of our evemt we found out who our DJ was and given we had never met him before I was totally freaked out! Let me tell you though that Dean was TOTALLY AMAZING!! I would recommend him to anyone! Our venue has a DJ they like to recommend to brides and grooms and use for their own private events but told Dean that if their house DJ wasnt available they will be calling Makers and requesting Dean...dont let his age cool you, he may be young but he reads the crowd well...our guests had a blast thanks to Dean Jones from Memory Makers

    Best DJ EVER! I am so happy with how the evening went and everyone is still raving about how much fun they had that night. Dave is extremely friendly, super accommodating, and knew exactly how to get the party started and keep it going. We had a Star Wars themed reception and had bought lightsabers for each guest. I was so worried that no one would take them and that we would be going home with a ton of extras. Dave got one of my little nephews to hand them out to everyone (and being a kid he took it literally and handed one to EVERYONE hahaha) which then led to an epic dance party throughout the evening. At times I would look around and see the dance floor start to empty and he would find just the exact right song that would bring everyone back out to dance. It was wonderful. I am so happy with our experience and plan to recommend Memory Makers to everyone and anyone needing a DJ :)

    Memory Makers and Dave Woll are simply the best. They have been doing this for years and it shows why! Truly experts and professionals! A DJ does a lot more than just "play music" during your event. And the "more" is where Memory Makers and Dave Woll stand out above the rest! Our wedding was a blast and most all of our guests stayed till the very end because Dave Woll kept the party going and the crowd entertained! That is the most important element for a successful wedding! Thank you Memory Makers and Dave Woll!

    We won a free DJ at one of their showcases at the DoubleTree in Mundelein which I was super excited about. We weren't sure exactly who we wanted but we ended up selecting Dale. In the back of my mind, I was a little worried that because the DJ service was free we might not get the best quality or get a lot of attention leading up to the big day but I couldn't have been more wrong about that. Dale was amazing! He looks like such a young kid, I was shocked at how mature and professional he was in all of our interactions. He went above and beyond and even edited some of the songs we wanted to make sure that they fit and flowed for what we were looking for. Our experience with Memory Makers was great and if you are looking for a great DJ who takes his job very seriously - I highly recommend choosing Dale!

    I cannot express how AMAZING Andres Acevedo was!! There is NOT ONE thing I would change! The music selection, the announcements, the professionalism and overall entertainment was worth every penny. Andres, you killed it at our reception and if I ever have another event, I will not hesitate to contact Memory Makers. Thank you for your kindness and patience! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!

    DJ Dale was phenomenal. He spoke clearly on the microphone. He played all the songs I requested, and he kept the energy going all night long on the dance floor. The volume of the music was perfect, allowing older guests to carry on conversation without having to shout at each other the entire night. He went above and beyond the standards of the company to make our wedding night spectacular. He was dressed professionally, easy to work with, personable, and communicated with us throughout the night to make sure it was everything we wanted. DJ Dale gets a 5.0!!!

    A recommendation would be to update the photos on this site to include this awesome DJ!

    We could not be more thrilled that we hired Juan to be our DJ for our wedding, our dance floor was packed from the first song to the last! Juan and Memory Makers allowed for us to have a smooth, simple planning session and for us to hear the exact songs that we wanted to hear for both our ceremony and reception. Juan went above and beyond the ensure that we were going to have exactly what we were looking for. During the reception, Juan even joined our guests on the dance floor to bring even more entertainment. Thank you for truly bringing the party! I would highly recommend his services to anyone who is looking for a fun night.

    DJ Andres was phenomenal at our wedding! We had a mixed crowd of Mexicans and Americans, and he knew EXACTLY what to play throughout the night to keep everyone on the dance floor! He was great at explaining cultural customs to each crowd, as appropriate, which made everyone want to participate. On top of it all, he was a joyful person with whom to work, and he was amenable to all of our ideas. Highly recommend!

    Memory Makers Entertainment is such an amazing company to have DJ at your event! Right from the moment we spoke to these guys about being the DJ for our wedding we knew we would be taken care of and booked them right away. Andres was our DJ and everyone absolutely loved him! He kept the guests and wedding party happy, entertained, and played just the right music to keep the dance floor packed! Both my husband and myself were so pleased to see that Andres kept up with our requests and even went beyond to make sure everything went perfect! It was so nice to have practically all of our guests excitedly tell us how much fun they had and that they had not danced that much in a long time. And we still hear them talking about it! We are so thankful that we had this amazing company DJ for our big day! Definitely something we will not forget! Thank you so much Andres!!!!!!

    We used Memory Makers for our wedding and it was a great choice!! We had Tom as our DJ and he did an awesome job. There was huge crowd on the dance floor at all times and a lot of people stayed until the end of the night. A lot of our guests gave us compliments about Tom as he was very professional, courteous, and very well organized. I would highly recommend this company to anyone and anytime I need a DJ this will be the first place I look to.

    Dre, as expected, was fabulous. He handled my family tossing last minute changes at him like a dream. He kept everyone happy even when the early birds thinned out. It went off without a hitch. :)

    Outstanding doesn't begin to describe Juan's professionalism and performance! The music choices were fun and lively, and the dancing didn't stop (so much so that my wife's uncle actually broke his ankle from having too much fun)!

    We provided, well in advance, a lot of songs requested by our wedding guests. Some were goofy (such as the star wars theme...), and Juan somehow managed to fit them all in, with appropriate timing! Somehow people were able to dance to the star wars theme (granted it was the guest who requested it of course).

    I would absolutely, unquestionably, pay for Juan's service again and again if I could, and he should be considered the top choice for any event.

    Memory Makers and in particular Armando Bolivar were great to work with and did exactly what we asked without any issues whatsoever. Armando made everything easy, was a delight to deal with, had the crowd engaged, and was a great MC for the whole wedding. I would highly recommend them.
