Live performances are like nothing else for a special event. When you're throwing a big bash, a live band can give your event energy and spirit that's a fun kind of infectious. If you're holding a subdued event to honor someone's achievements, opting for a live band can give you precision and control over the mood of your ceremony. As a cover band, we have great number of songs to choose from for your event: from the classics and old standbys that you've come to love to something more unique or modern, we have options for every event and every kind of attendee. A special event band will work with you to find the right tone and mood for your event and its guests. Each event is different and has a unique purpose and set of attendees, so we want to ensure that you get exactly what you need to make your event special and memorable. If you have limitations on language, content, or style, we're glad to help you choose the right songs for your performance that will ensure that every guest has a wonderful time. We offer wedding live music that will alternately get everyone out on the floor, dancing up a storm, or enjoying the poignancy of the moment, appreciating the magic of love in each other's arms. Do you have song that's meaningful to you that you want to share with someone important in your life?...

To say they were "accommodating" is an understatement. They arranged a special version of my one of my grandmother's favorite songs to play for her at cocktail hour AND they arranged the most gorgeous version of my favorite Rolling Stones song, which my dad walked me down the aisle to. They went above and beyond all expectations - the perfect "wow" factor for any wedding.

We were so grateful the BSCE was available and could not imagine our wedding without them! (And they were so nice and accommodating throughout the process)

A Great Wedding Band…read more Wedding Date 2.1.25 As Father of the Bride, I thought that DSR Music was the best and that the music helps make the wedding reception a great and memorable one. The band members and vocalists are so talented and energetic in all genres of music making each song fun to dance to. The dance floor was packed all night and we received complements for weeks about the quality of the band and how much fun the wedding was. David Rothstein does a great job as the MC for the night but the benefits of using DSR start long before the wedding day. David takes the time to get to know the wedding couple and their family, understand what is important to them at the wedding, learn the type of music they are interested in hearing and provides special touches for the bride and groom. I think so highly of DSR Music that I used them for my oldest daughter's wedding in 2016 and my niece used them as well.

We found Dominic by recommendation and he just DJ'd our wedding this past weekend. We could not…read morehave asked for a better DJ for our wedding. Not only does he have just about every kind of music from all genres you could possibly conceive and not only did he conscientiously stick to all of our instructions for our big day, but he intuitively keeps things running smoothly. During an event which can be stressful for just about an entire year leading up to it, I can't even begin to articulate what a relief it was. At every juncture during the evening (and during the ceremony as we had both reception and ceremony in the same place) he courteously and promptly directed the proceedings. We never had to wonder how much longer cocktail hour lasted and when dinner service began, or when as bride and groom we were to have our first dance, father daughter, bouquet toss, etc. Dominic watched and managed the time. We really recommend Dominic Wayne's services. A professional like this is really difficult to come by and for all the added service he's just an incredible value. Always graciously taking requests, he also grasped what we wanted and just did it. He wears a sharp suit too. Can't recommend him enough. What a pro...

This guy's great . . . can I give him more than 5 stars?!?!…read more I used Dominic Wayne for a National Sales Meeting I coordinated this year (150 people held at the Renaissance Hotel in Chicago). Dominic is the DJ at Vaughan's Pub on Sheffield and also had a great resume of other company/corporate events & weddings that he has done . . . I knew he would do a great job with the music and when meeting with him I learned that he also did video production. We hired him to do our Kick off opening day module for meeting. We needed something that would get the employees excited and engerized for the next 3 days. Dominic created about a 5 minute video showcasing all of our brands in an extremely creative and upbeat way (all set to great music of course). The video was great and I actually received several requests for copies of it including one from the head of our Board of Directors who was totally impressed and showed it at the next board meeting. We also hired him to DJ our evening events . . . first night was the welcome cocktail reception, the second night was a casino/roaring 20's themed party. The first night was great, played great music and kept everyone mingling way past the end of dinner. The second night was even better than the first (and 7 mths later, people are still talking about him). We had a Roaring 20's themed night & Dominic was the hit of the party. He dressed up like a gangster, started out the first part of the night with appropriately themed music and then graduated into dance music and had the whole party on the dance floor . . . the hotel literally had to kick us out of the ballroom. We originally only hired him for 2 nights, but actually ended asking him to come back for the third night to DJ our award cermony. . . and again he was a hit. Dominic really brought some freshness and energy to what could have easily been another boring sales meeting. I'm looking forward to the next meeting or event or party I can book him for . . . unitl then I'll head to Vaughan's to hear him play.
