Backthird Entertainment exceeded my expectations. I reached out to them about a year and a half…read morebefore my wedding. Stephen stayed in touch with me for that entire year and a half, checking in on the planning process and asking how he could help. He even met with me for coffee a few months before the wedding because he wanted to be sure that he understood our vision, music tastes, etc. The dance floor was full all night. So many people came up to me afterward and commented that they had never seen such a creative DJ - his transitions between songs were so fun, and he was flexible and knew how to keep the party going. He also provided all of the sound equipment for the entire day. We played a video during the reception, and even though he wasn't responsible for the equipment, he quickly jumped in when it looked like the sound wasn't working. Honestly, there is no reason to consider using any other DJ. Backthird is the best of the best!

I originally checked out some other DJ companies but, ultimately, wanted a DJ who would provide…read moregood MC services for my reception. I manage events for a living and knew that, if I didn't have someone to do that, I would spend the night worried about the agenda. Nobody needs that on their wedding day. I came across Backthird Entertainment and these guys have weddings down. I filled out an inquiry and Robbie, my account manager, contacted me right away to discuss the details. He had great ideas about the flow of the evening and, after our discussion, he paired us up with DJ Andrew. Their online portal was super easy to use and we had the opportunity to add in all of the special events we wanted during the evening. Andrew was great about helping us coordinate everything, especially since our reception ended up being a bit of a variety show. I appreciated that Andrew and his assistant, Scott, took care of all the details. They showed up early to set up, kept us on schedule throughout the evening, and made sure to play our "must play" songs and other requests at the times requested. Robbie even made sure to follow up with me at various times throughout the process to make sure everything was going well. These guys are great and really care about their customers. They helped make my big day worry free!

Wow. Just wow. Jeff-thanks for Being the best DJ ever!…read more I went with Jeff after personally witnessing his "no frills and no cheese" service at a friends wedding and I was absolutely satisfied with his performance!! Jeff called days before our event to verify details and chat further about my expectations. In discussing my original choice not to select a specific cake cutting song, Jeff recalled that my fiancé Mark and I enjoy the Avett brothers and he suggested to use their song January Wedding! I hadn't even ever heard that song but way to go Jeff, it couldn't have been more spot on! We had a short must play list which was complimented by the most ideal selection of favorite music! The dance floor was abuzz ALL night! Thank you SO much for keeping the party alive!!! -Amy and Mark

He jived and grooved with the music, setting a vibe of "get down on it" and we enjoyed every single song we requested and he put in. We had him do the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception, and he set up and provided EXACTLY timing and songs as requested! Even our guests commented on the music choices and Jim. The gal in the Office, Taylor was sweet and answered the phone and emails all the time. I even physically went into their nice office in St. Charles with a list and payments. Everything was professional and just great!! Great job. Book them!!

I knew from the start it was going to be a great experience based on his interactions with the couple. He was friendly, polite, and thorough and very clearly experienced. The day of the wedding, he showed up with plenty of time to set up and came equipped with some really cool equipment and lights. He had a great personality without being one of those DJs who tries too hard or makes it about himself. He was really great at picking up on the crowd's vibes and adjusting his playlist accordingly. He went above and beyond at every turn to really breathe life into the party. You can tell he loves what he does because of how engaged he is in his work at all times. A great experience overall.

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.
