J Helbig Cheese-Free DJ+MC 
Rating: 5.0 (9 reviews)
Akron, OH
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,701

We’ve all witnessed this: A wedding DJ who thought they were the main event – the endless mic chatter, the forced games, the tacky props, and the "impromptu" dance lessons that kill the momentum of a perfectly good night. It’s tacky, it’s insulting to your guests and – quite frankly – I’m over it!   Which is why I built a brand that does the exact opposite with a different set of rules. A boutique, "Non-Cheesy, Non-Obnoxious" experience where the vibe is comfortable, inclusive, organic FUN and where the soundtrack doesn't suck. Because it reflects you! Just like your reception should.

“Jack was a true partner during our wedding planning and on our day. He worked with us on song selection (there were a couple of songs we drew a blank on), helped fine-tune the schedule of events and worked with our photographer and venue to iron out the details and make sure they were all on the same page. We kept the song selection up to him as much as we could, providing some "dos" and "don't" and he did the rest. We got several comments on the music after the fact from both friends and family, so he managed to please both crowds. I'd highly recommend Jack to anyone.”

We understand you want your event to be fun, yet elegant and classy – but most of all stress-free. We’re dedicated to putting on a fun, yet elegant show for you and your guests. We don’t make unbecoming jokes, perform cheesy acts or display tasteless advertisements.

“Streamcle is a preferred partner of By Request. We provide Livestreaming, event photography and custom production at many of their weddings and events. One of the best things about By Request is that their Djs are in constant contact with all vendors throughout the day, and they keep the guests informed too so no one misses a moment. By Request is small enough to provide a one of a kind experience but large enough to be able to staff and furnish equipment to multiple locations and large events on any given day. Couples and hosts are treated to custom service so no two events are alike. Their inventory is modern, clean, well maintained and frequently upgraded. We look forward to future events together!”

“We cannot say enough good things about Edd! He DJ’d our wedding this past September and absolutely crushed it from start to finish. He also DJ’d my sister’s wedding, so we already knew we were in great hands—and he still exceeded our expectations. Edd truly understands electronic-style music and can mix seamlessly, which kept the dance floor packed all night long. The energy never dipped, the transitions were flawless, and the vibe was exactly what we wanted. On top of his talent, he has an amazing personality—professional, fun, and so easy to work with. He knows how to read the room and keep the party going without missing a beat. He’s DJ’ing my best friend’s wedding this coming June. We’d recommend Edd to anyone who wants a packed dance floor and a DJ who has exceptional talent and skill! —Ashley & David Hudoba”

“Liza was truly amazing!! She was so patient with us, she unstood us as a couple. She knew I was so stressed picking out the music for the day. She was more than willing to sit and try to match songs up with what we already had picked out. She had found the best places for us to walk out to them . Liza even made a wedding day timeline for us! She had so many great suggestions for our day (ballroom blitz, her drone to take a photo, certain dance with people, a pho exit for photos, the list could go on and on.) Before you even meet with Liza she sends a huge list of wedding day tips which was a life saver for me. Lastly which was so unexpected, Liza was there making sure I was okay, and drinking water! What DJ does that?!? And then after the ceremony she greated me with a tequila sunrise. I have so many amazing things to say about Liza. Thank you so much for making our day flow and keeping the party alive.”

During consultation, he gave me confidence that he knew exactly how to provide us with a great experience from the type of equipment to bring, what type of music he would play, and how he conducted the reception. He gave us a questionnaire to fill out as well as a web portal to add all of our preferred and must play songs to. Including all of the first dance and introduction songs. For the reception he brought an awesome stage with a custom light up screen with our names on it. He really knows how to transition between different songs to create a fun flow to the night. A great mix of high energy songs and slow dancing songs. He even brought glow sticks for us to dance with as a throw in. Brandon Brooks helped make our night one that we will remember forever. We recommend Brooks Music to anyone needing a DJ for any event. He is a real pro.”

“DJ Motiv was extraordinary. I was so impressed by his professionalism, communication, and willingness to make sure our night was perfect. I was skeptical at first with some reviews mentioning that the DJ’s weren’t playing the songs they chose. I immediately reached out and that was informed that it would not be an issue. ALL of our chosen music was played, with some song requests of guests (with bride’s approval, per DJ motiv - loved that). DJ Motiv checked in with us constantly, even to make sure our food was at our table, if we needed drinks, if the music was going well, and if there was anything he could do. He was going above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed. I even threw in special requests during my wedding, including him stopping my parent dance half way (on purpose) as if the music turned off, to take the mic and give a short speech. He did it phenomenally. I had a game request, with him being the commentator and director of, and he took that role and ran with it. The wedding guests LOVED him. I have nothing negative to say about his services. Even the photobooth was done great! I also had a custom sign made, with our new last name, and it was perfect! Such a great item to be able keep, and you get a year warranty on it. Anyway, I highly recommend this DJ!! He MADE our wedding perfect. Everyone loved him.”
