Chris did a fabulous job working my birthday party. He played the hits I requested and was able to get the crowd on the dance floor. He was set and ready to go at the appointed hour and was a fun person to have around. Highly recommend him read more

Jorge with Spin did our wedding reception in September and we could not possibly be more satisfied with his performance. They sent us a link to an interactive form prior to the event whereby we could designate our must-play, can-play and don't-play lists, as well as lay out an itinerary complete with names and pronunciations, so that the event flowed seamlessly without the need to interrupt us in the mess of things. Jorge did an amazing job of reading the crowd and catering the playlist to that which our guests were positively responding. He brought great energy to the party. He was punctual, professional, and fairly priced. I would certainly recommend him and hire him again. read more

Spin is the best! The best music I have heard at a party. Shout out to Chris V, the greatest dj of all time.

We chose Spin Productions as the DJ company for our 7/24/10 based on the recommendation of a co-worker. Jorge was our DJ and he was FANTASTIC. To start with, Spin Productions' planning website is incredible and is very easy to use. They had almost every song that I searched for, and their planning sheet is very detailed. Jorge called us the week before the wedding to discuss the planning information we filled out on their website, and I could tell immediately that he was going to be great. When I met him on the day of our wedding, he was friendly and seemed excited for us. He created a playlist pretty much based off of my "no play" list that I made on their website (I didn't want any of the typical music - no Black Eyed Peas, Rhianna, Lady Gaga...I just don't like that music), and what he chose was fantastic. People were packed on the dance floor all night. I highly recommend Spin Productions! read more

Great music. Loved Chris Vittorio. Would 10/10 recommend over any other DJ in Chicago.

I booked Chris for my January 18, 2009 wedding reception. He was really laid back and nonchalant, which is cool. He wasn't pushy nor did he try to rush us. He played what we asked and a lot of things I didn't think we'd want to hear. I was glad he did. He catered to the crowd. He did a great job, and was easy to contact and easy to work with. If I ever require the services of a DJ again, he'd be my first call. read more

Whoop Whoop!! Chris made our wedding a SUCCESS. He was completely calm, cool and collected (which is AWESOME to have on a stressful and hectic wedding day). He dealt with our obnoxious family, and rowdy bridal party like a TOTAL professional. He also traveled to ALGONQUIN, IL to DJ for us. The venue where the wedding was held - the banquet manager position had recently changed, so the woman "in charge" always seemed flustered and unsure, but Chris was able to help guide the reception, from the introductions to the last song. He didn't rant and rave into the microphone, instead he let the music talk for him and the dance floor was NEVER empty. He took enough requests to keep the guests happy, and played the wedding classics that got EVERYONE moving. On the website, there is an Event Planning form, complete with song suggestions and a searchable database. And the day before the event I received a phone call from Chris to confirm all pronunciation. Chris seemed to do anything in his power to make sure that everything went according to plan, and everyone who attended the wedding loved him. read more

Choosing a great DJ was pretty much on the top of our list when planning our wedding a few years ago. Chris. Was. Awesome. My husband and I were beyond impressed by how perfectly you read the crowd and always knew what song to play next to keep the party popping -- and the dance floor packed! read more

Our wedding was on 7/9/21 and Chris at Spin helped to make our wedding perfect! We got so many compliments on the music selection and Chris as the MC. Music is a huge part of our relationship so finding the right DJ was very important to us and we hit the mark with Chris. Our venue was City Winery in West Loop and we had Chris handle the music for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. He was super easy to work with, very professional, and communicative throughout the entire process - even when we had to "replan" our wedding due to covid. We had specific vibes we wanted for each part of the wedding, and he completely understood and executed our vision flawlessly. We had a few must-plays that he worked in, but he knew the exact songs to play at the exact right time to keep the dance floor going strong all night. He also played the role of MC perfectly, working with our planner to keep the wedding on time and providing just the right amount of talking to enhance the event, make announcements and such, without ever stopping the flow of the evening. We highly recommend Chris and Spin! read more

We used Spin to DJ our wedding on 7/9/16, and had the pleasure of working with Chris, the owner. Chris is a professional in every sense of the word and exemplifies why it is worth the money to hire a DJ. He makes every step of both the planning and the event itself both easy and enjoyable. Would highly recommend to anyone. In terms of planning, he goes out of his way to understand your needs and also let you know exactly what they offer and how they'll make your wedding great. He's very thorough without at all being intrusive, with easy online planning tools and a very flexible schedule. For the event itself, Chris was the man. All the equipment was working perfectly right from the start, he was on time, and he kept us in the loop on anything we needed to know while letting us do everything else we needed to do and enjoy the evening. Most importantly, he kept our dance floor PACKED the entire night with great music and a fantastic flow to the evening, even with our special requests and add-ons. We received a ton of compliments on the DJ and music, and only complaints were that peoples feet were sore the next day. Spin is great, Chris is awesome, you could not do better than with them for your wedding! read more

We met with a number of DJs, and talked about music and ensured us that they would have the party popping. We weren't looking for any gimmicks and we truly wanted a traditional classic wedding party. And then we met Chris. We knew immediately our search was over. Chris promised, and delivered, he exceeded our expectations and then some. His announcing and style is classy and set a great vibe for our reception. And the music- he knows what works on the dance floor. We had the party bumping until the very last song. Even the waiters were dancing- that's how amazing our wedding was. He also honored our family tradition of limbo, and did a great job of announcing shuttles and the timeline of events. Thank you Chris for giving us the wedding of a lifetime, our friends and family told us how sore they were from dancing for an entire week after our wedding. Hire Chris, seriously you won't be sorry. read more

We were first introduced to Spin at a friend's wedding and knew we had to have them at ours! We knew from our first meeting with Chris that he would not disappoint. He understood what we were looking for and was quick to respond when answering all the questions that we had. We used Chris for both ceremony and reception music and it all worked out smoothly and he was fully committed on the day of. The dance floor was packed the entire time. He was able to read the crowd and choose music that everyone loved. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ for our special day and will be recommending Chris and his company to everyone we know! read more

I found most of the vendors for my May wedding online using yelp, wedding wire, the knot, etc. I scoured reviews and hoped the best! And with Chris, Jorge, and Spin Productions-- that's what I got. It was a great and easy experience working with Spin from start to finish. From our first phone call and email, Chris was professional and timely as he answered all my questions and concerns. He was very patient as I changed the date and venue, and then changed it back. The contract was straightforward and easy to understand and the price reasonable. I chose Jorge as my DJ and we spent the next few months slowly building our must play and do not play lists using our personalized and easy-to-use online planner. Jorge touched base a few weeks before our wedding to review timing, speeches, and special requests. He was always available with any questions or changes by email or cell. On the day of, he arrived hours before I asked in order to make sure everything was set before the ceremony. Jorge was nice, professional, calm and not at all cheesy. He stuck to the timing as well as our no play and must play lists while still honoring our guests requests. The best part? He had the dance floor packed all night. Do yourself a favor and call Spin. It'll be one last thing you have to worry about as you plan your wedding day. read more

Chris was referred to us by another couple, whose wedding was just a few months before ours. Chris DJ'd our wedding on 8/29/15. Chris was very easy to work with and didn't require much time or guidance in getting prepped for our wedding (which we liked!). He really customizes his approach to your preferences and made sure to play all of our "must play" list. We got a lot of compliments on the music played at the wedding, which was evidenced by the number of guests on the dance floor the whole night! read more

I have nothing bad to say about Spin! We found the company through rave reviews online and boy were they right! We had Chris for our reception and he did an impeccable job. From our first phone conversation a year before the wedding, I knew he was the right choice. We picked out 20 must-play and 20 possible-play songs and he took care of the rest. As someone who is a bit of a control freak, it was a little hard to relinquish controlling the entire playlist. But I am so glad I did! So many songs I wouldn't have thought of and all played at the perfect times. I can't recommend Spin and Chris enough. If you are hesitant, don't be! They are the right choice. On a day when you don't need any added stress, they will put you at ease and make the night a memorable one! read more

We know 4 other couples who have used Spin as their DJ for their wedding, and they all had nothing but good things to say. So really it was a no-brainer for us to use them as well. They lived up to everything we heard about them. I have heard a few things about needing to really lay out each song you want the DJ to play, I considered it but ran out of time. I am glad I did because Chris did a fantastic job picking songs that got our guests dancing. We even had a couple people ask about them for their upcoming weddings. We definitely suggest them. read more

We used Spin for my wedding on 5/13/17 as Jorge had been the DJ for my sister-in-law's wedding. 1. Their website was easy for generating our song list and Jorge and Chris gave us guidelines for how many songs to pick based on the timeline of our wedding. My wife had strict instructions to stick to the playlist as we knew some of our guests would want to play some songs like the chicken dance, so Jorge gently rebuffed any such requests. 2. Chris and Jorge were able to work with our venue on timing and setup of all the equipment. We had an outdoor setup for the cocktail hour and then moved indoors for dinner and dancing. Everything was setup and good to go! 3. Probably the most important thing, Jorge kept us on schedule! As you can probably imagine, it's near impossible to keep track of time, but Jorge made sure we didn't get lost and that we took care of all the toasts and ceremonies on-time. Overall, Chris and Jorge were very easy to work with, all the audio worked perfectly including the microphones for the speeches, everyone danced their butts off, everything went smoothly, and Jorge was essential in making sure we kept to schedule! read more

Best DJ I have ever seen! We hired Chris for our Oct 08 wedding. He suggested that we didn't pick every single song we wanted so that he could read the crowd and play what would keep people dancing. All night long the dance floor was packed because he was playing the perfect songs. He is very laid back which is refreshing when you are getting married. He was always super easy to contact and responded to whatever needs we had right away. Chicago needs more DJs like Chris! Also--the prices are great! You cannot find a better DJ for your wedding read more

My wife and I got calls for days after our wedding about how much fun our guests had, and Chris at Spin Productions has a ton to do with that. There are many positives to say: Let me begin with his reliability. Quite simply, he was at our appointments on time, responded to all our emails, and MOST importantly, he was already set up and playing music as the first guest arrived to the reception hall. He also dressed in appropriate attire, a black suit and a tie. Chris fulfilled all our requested music, special songs and dances, in addition to triple checking everything before the big day. Also, I really liked his system that removes your "don't play songs" from his database, so you definitely will NOT hear songs that you hate on your wedding day. Chris also used the microphone only when needed, and cut all the cheese out. Perfect for a wedding where you don't want an obnoxious DJ. If you need any announcements for pictures he will call certain family groups without a problem, and will announce special dances at your request (i.e. the Hora). Because of his music selection and his ability to read crowds, he kept people dancing all night. Most importantly, the main reason we chose Chris is because of his computer system. Not only does he have very advanced editing skills, but he also has a system that will keep the music playing all night. Instead of iTunes, he has a professional program that will fade one track into the next. He will also bring a back up hard drive and CD's as a failsafe, so you will definitely have music playing in any sort of technical crisis. Overall, great quality, great price, and great personality. HIGHLY recommended read more

I don't even know where to start. Chris is simply awesome! We could not have been more happy with our wedding! We had great music, and people dancing- what more can you ask for? Chris made the night fun and memorable- and that's all we asked for! He even did our up-lighting and the room looked GORGEOUS. Chris has been in the industry for a long time, he has a great reputation, and many people know and respect him- all for good reason! I did my leg work, and met with several DJs, but none compared to Chris. He knows his stuff, and with his organization, made everything easy. The song selections, announcements, everything went smoothly. Every meeting with him he made us feel comfortable, and that's the best feeling- to know you can enjoy your day not worrying or hoping and praying the music gets people up on the dance floor. I had no doubts, and Chris exceeded our expectations. We can't thank him enough. Hire SPIN and you won't be disappointed- I promise! Thanks again Chris- Andrea & Jimmy Cios read more
