    The best!!!

    We hired Premier Entertainment for our wedding and couldn't have asked for a better experience. From our first conversation, they listened to what we wanted and took our feedback seriously. Everything was set up perfectly on the day of the wedding, and we barely had to lift a finger. The team was so nice to work with and made the whole process easy. Their work was amazing and really kept our guests entertained all night. We highly recommend Premier Entertainment to any couple looking for a band or DJ.

    Thank you so much Alex! Soo much fun at your wedding and we were glad to be a part of it!

    Premier Entertainment

    The absolute best DJ we could have asked for to have at our wedding! Communication with Darrin was easy and so in depth which resulted in the best outcome! The package we got included videos and pictures, and the pictures I’ll include but I’m SO happy we chose this. Such a fun memory and activity to have. We get to go back and look at it to relive those moments. You get to choose your design and all the other features. In addition to that, his wife, put in 100% effort to record the dance floor fun and took short clips that we also received and those are priceless. The DJ also had a live recording of the dance floor which is an even better bonus to see everyone dancing candid. The music was 10/10, kept the dance floor full and fun. Darrin exceeded our expectations for the day and kept the schedule smooth and party epic. If I had to do it again, I’d choose Premier Entertainment again without hesitation! Book them for your next event!

    Darrin and Cheryl are THE BEST

    Darrin and Cheryl are absolutely the best in the business!!! They had the party going at our wedding all night long. Our guests were insane on the dance floor. Truly, if you want your event to be fun, you need to work with them. We could not have had more fun or a better experience!

    Premier Entertainment review

    Premier entertainment made our wedding day so special. Everything ran so smoothly thanks to them. Everything was on time on schedule and the music and entertainment was great. They had our guests up and dancing, and even took pictures and short videos and shared them with us right away!

    Amazing!

    From our first conversation with Premier Entertainment, we knew they were the right choice for our wedding. Darrin made the entire process simple and straightforward, responding quickly to every question we had. He really personalized our experience by working with us on graphics, lighting, and song selections. The app made it easy to upload music we wanted him to play. On the night of our wedding, the dance floor packed from start to finish with incredible song choices and energy. We'd absolutely recommend Premier Entertainment to any couple looking for a DJ!

    Darrin Lee•Aug 7, 2026

    Thank you so much Ellie for your great review of our service! Your wedding was definitely so much fun. Congratulations again!

Real wedding inspiration featuring Premier Entertainment

Show all photos
We have been in Business since 2011! Our Dj’s have over 10 years professional experience. We require them to have experience DJing weddings, parties, and corporate events on a professional level, not just a hobby. What that means is that you will get an experienced event professional. When you book with Premier Entertainment, you can rest easy knowing your event is in good hands
Although this is not a normal occurrence, we do have contingency plans in place. First, our DJ’s back each up. Also, we partnered with another DJ Company that can be called upon to assist if needed. That way, in the (unlikely) event that something does happen to your DJ, you’ll still get a professional, experienced, and talented event or wedding DJ.
Yes we do! But we also filter requests we get from guests. So if we get a request for a song or genre that you’ve specified a “Do Not Play,” we won’t play it. It’s important to remember that your DJ is an event professional. They know which tracks get the dance floor going and which ones may clear it out. And since Premier Entertainment DJs don’t just show up and press play on a pre-made set, we have the flexibility to react to the vibe of the crowd. We also offer an online planning system vial Client Portal and also a Phone APP, Called Vibo, for super convenient music selection. This way you can specify your favorite songs before the event.
No. Breaks are not taken unless specified by the client. Premier Entertainment provides continuous music unless an announcement is being made on the microphone.
You can decide! The DJ may be dressed in a Suit or Vest and Tie, Polo, or Dress Shirt. Whatever you choose, you can be assured that it will be tasteful and professional. The following attire descriptions should help in making a decision: Formal: Suit/Vest & Tie to match event, Semi-Formal: Black Shirt and Black Slacks Business, Casual: Company Polo with Black slacks, Casual: Company Polo with Jeans We will never come to your event in jeans (unless the client specifies otherwise). We base our attire off professionalism which always include at minimum a polo with slacks.
We arrive at least 1.5-2 hours prior for setup so we can be sure our equipment is test and ready to go upon guest arrival. We will coordinate this with your venue prior to the event date.
It depends on the event, but required with the retainer is a signed Service Agreement which will reserve your date on our calendar. The balance is due 1 week prior to event. Our Retainers are not refundable. However, it can be moved to another booking within 12 months of the original date.
Yes! Premier Entertainment is covered by $1,000,000/ $2,000,000 in liability insurance. We strive to provide the finest entertainment and at the same time ensure the safety of you and your guests. If you need an additional COI for your venue, we can do that too!
We do not include gratuity in the final contract price. 10 – 20% is generally recommended if your DJ did a great job, but it is entirely up to you.
Yes. You see our reviews on our website, Google, or other source. We can provide you a list of satisfied customers as well as banquet managers references. We are preferred vendors at MANY venues all over Chicagoland! We are professional, flexible, and most importantly, know how to pack a dance floor!
