Tiffany & Brandon Grear - August 8, 2008

"I wanted to write to let you know how happy my wife and I were with the professionalism of both David and Chris. We had hired David upon first meeting him as he put both my wife and I completely at ease. From the word go we knew that he would do a great job, however we could never have imagined how great. David and Chris helped to make our wedding "the best wedding I have been to" on numerous accounts. Their professionalsm was second to none. The music selection was exactly as my wife and I wanted, which in turn kept the party going and was a perfect compliment to the theme we were striving for. David was more than extremely helpful in setting up, planning, and executing the event exactly to our liking. Not only was David's DJing amazing, but his MCing was just as impressive if not better. He controlled the room, and made sure that no guest missed any of our important moments. To say that we were satisfied with David would be an understatement of enormous proportions. David exceeded every expectation we could have had for a DJ, and we will be recommending them to any and all who need a professional who takes his clients more seriously than himself, which is a welcomed change in your industry. I could go on, but I have work to do. Amazing! David, thank you again. It was our sincere pleasure to have you there!"

Melissa and Bryan Goodwin - June 28, 2008

What else can I say about our experience with Sounds Abound and David Wilner other than spectacular!! Not only did Melissa and I feel like it was the BEST party we have ever been to, but everyone that we have talked to could not stop raving about what a great time they all had at our wedding. When you start hearing from older people (who have most likely been to many weddings) that it was the best wedding they have ever been to, you know that something went right. David kept the dance floor packed all night and several people, including Melissa, NEVER left the floor! In addition to the wonderful music that David played, he was truly a calming presence for Melissa and I as we got closer to the wedding date. We never worried about anything. We felt like although we only spoke to David 5 or 6 times during the wedding process, we were leaving the wedding reception with a friend. Amazing work David....and thanks Sounds Abound!!

Bridget & Brent Eickhoff - June 21, 2008

"After our meeting with David prior to the wedding day, we felt very comfortable and relieved to have a professional such as David working at our wedding. He did an excellent job and kept people on the dance floor the entire night. He respected our wishes of what songs that we did not want to be played contrary to several requests, while at the same time offering something similar that would work just as well. One thing that we both liked was that he was checking in with us from time to time throughout the night and making sure that everything was going well... it was the personal touch that really set David apart from other DJs."

Angela & Remington Marsden - June 20, 2008

"Our reception was amazing, thanks in part to our wonderful DJ! David Wilner did a fantastic job the entire evening and kept the party rocking on the dance floor! Everyone had so much fun and was sad to see the night end, which is a testament to how fast time flies when you're having so much fun. David was so helpful and a pleasure to work with leading up to the big day and we truly enjoyed having him there be a big part of the big day itself! Thanks to David for helping us throw an amazing reception. We've received endless amounts of compliments on the DJ and music for the evening and we will definitely recommend Sounds Abound in the future! Thank you for helping to make our wedding the best night of our lives."

Laura & Erik Turngren - June 14, 2008

"David Wilner and assistant Chris, were outstanding! From our initial meeting with David and our follow-up meeting just before the wedding, David listened to all our requests for the evening reception putting us at complete ease that our day would be special. In addition, David and Crhis worked together so smoothly that there were no interuptions in the flow of the evening. David was cognizant of the varied ages of the wedding guests and most definitely played to that mixed audience. Moreover, there was never a moment that music was playing that the dance floor was empty. In fact, we had a full dance floor up to the very end of the evening! Our wedding reception included all the requested traditional moments to the untraditional with ethnic selections AND an emotional and highly respected performance by a former Illini Chief! Finally, nothing speaks more highly about the professionalism and showmanship of a DJ and assistant than to have guests repeatedly rave about them as well as inquire about hiring Sounds Abound for future events."

Kate & Joe Rumley - May 25, 2008

"I could not have been more pleased with the performance and service we received from our wedding DJ, David Wilner. When choosing our DJ, it was very important that he get to know both Joe and I well enough that the music played would be just what we would have chosen (or better) - and we were not let down! David took the time to have several meetings with us along the way and genuinely understood what type of music we preferred and how involved we wanted him to be. We have received MANY compliments from our guests about the music and his commentary throughout the evening, and he really kept our party going until the very end! We couldn't be happier! Additionally, when we ran into a small problem during our wedding, I was so grateful to David as our DJ. His professionalism and problem-solving abilities were outstanding when it came to resolving the situation. He took matters into his own hands and did not allow me to worry in the slightest, which was wonderful! We have nothing but good things to say about his performance and service, so please feel free to use us as a reference in the future."

Stephanie & Joel Woodward - October 27, 2007

"Our wedding reception was perfect and that is due in a large part to David Wilner. David adjusted his schedule to meet with us the week of the wedding and was so friendly and had great advice and suggestions for us. The reception itself ran so smoothly and we never once worried about timing or if people were having a good time. David organized the event so perfectly and kept us up to date throughout the event as to what was coming next. The dance floor was packed all night long, I know we never once left the dance floor. We would highly recommend David to anyone getting married in the area in the future. We couldn't have asked for a more professional, friendly, fun, organized DJ to be at our wedding. Thank you so much David!"

Maria & Shan Liu - October 6, 2007

"We absolutely enjoyed our entire experience with Sounds Abound Entertainment from the initial meeting with our DJ, David Wilner, to the selection of music, to David's performance at our wedding. We have heard nothing but praise for his interactions with guests, introductions, and musical selections throughout the night. Our experience was exactly what we were looking for and we would not change a thing! Keep up the good work, professionalism, and dedication to making customers' experiences worth remembering!!!"

Lauren & Tom Cindel - September 29, 2007

"My wife and I got married in September and had the privilege working with David Wilner for our wedding. I appologize it took this long to respond, but I wanted to let you know how much we appreciated David's efforts that day. From the first time we worked with David, he proved that his only concern was making sure that our day went perfectly. Whatever we wanted, we got, and David was more than willing to give us excellent suggestions to make the night memorable. Every person that we have talked to about the wedidng claimed that it ws the most fun they ever had. David had a great variety of music that kept everybody dancing all through the night. His perfect balance of professionalism and humor make him an excellent choice of DJ and MC. Lauren and I were the first of our friends to get married, and we will definitely be recommending Sounds Abound, specifically David Wilner, as a top choice for a great DJ. I have been to weddings where the DJ has had a negative impact on the enjoyment of the guests: this was definitely not the case for our wedding. From Lauren and myself, we wish to send our deepest thanks to David for a great sales pitch about Sounds Abound in November of 2006, and following it up with a knock out performance in September of 2007. On a side note, please let David know that, ironically, one of our guests in attendance also had David as his DJ for his wedding: the ironic part is that Lauren and I attended that wedding as our first date in 2002. Again, thank you to Sounds Abound for a great evening: and thank you to David Wilner for maiking our wedding day everything we hoped it would be and more."

Talya & Scott Lindstedt - September 2, 2007

"I had a fantastic experience with Sounds Abound, primarily because of David Wilner who was the DJ for our wedding. David is courteous, professional, friendly and warm to others, and has an incredible perosnality. He was full of energy the entire night and I've never seen the dance floor so crowded at an event in my entire life. I received an endless number of compliments after the wedding about how much fun our guests had dancing, and many people told me that David had the best Hora (Jewish wedding dance) that people have ever seen. Even my frinds who aren't Jewish and haven't danced the Hora before said it was "the best Hora ever." David was fantastic and I would recommend him to anyone and everyone that needs a DJ/emcee for their special event. Thanks for everything David and Sounds Abound!"

Katherine & Daniel Pereda - June 23, 2007

"Sounds Abound did an outstanding job taking care of our musical needs! David did exactly as we had asked...he made our wedding reception into a party no one will ever forget! It was incredible to see how many people came onto the dance floor and never left. The sequence of selctions was outstanding and our guests were treated with the utmost respect. We are extremely grateful for the time David spent before the wedding getting to know my husband and I personally. Thank you for a job well done!!!"

Jullian & Brendan Gallagher - June 9, 2007

"David Wilner was our DJ. He was wonderful. We had so much fun when we first met with him to finalize our music for our reception. We walked out of his office saying how excited we were for our reception after we met David. He was an excellent DJ. He played everything on our list and made our reception a night we will never forget. He made everyone feel like a superstar that night and everyone at the wedding loved him. He talked with us throughout the night to make sure that things were going according to our plan too, which was very helpful. I come from a family of dancers, but there were a lot of people there who were dancing all night because of him! The dance floor was packed from start to finish. We have never had as much fun in our lives as we did at our reception. I will recommend your DJ services as well as David to anyone that is looking for a DJ. We could not have been happier!"

Katie & Steve Messina - June 2, 2007

"We absolutely loved our Sounds Abound DJ David. We had so many family and friends come up to us telling us that this was the best DJ they had at a wedding. Everyone enjoyed themselves. If I ever need a DJ again or any one I know needs one I will definitley give them your number. Thanks again for making our wedding a memorable one that we will remember. Thanks!!!"

Lindsey & Logan Ayers - April 28, 2007

"We were quite impressed with our DJ, David! He was excellent! He was responsive to all of our questions in the preliminary planning stages. David provided great ideas for song suggestions and helped us to plan the perfect line up. During the wedding reception, we liked the fact that David took control of the entertainmet portion, yet kept us posted on the sequence of events. This prevented us from having to worry and remember all of the small details. He was professional, friendly, energetic, and quite the eloquent speaker. The guests all enjoyed his performance, and the dance flooor was hopping all night long. We will certainly recommend him to all of our friends!"

Michelle & Steve Hohe - February 10, 2007

"My husband and I found out about Sounds Abound Entertainment while researching online for DJs for our wedding. Your website is inviting and one of the more well organized and informative sites that we had come across. We especially liked being able to watch videos of each DJ's performance, and found your pricing to be fair, so we made an appointment. We chose David Wilner as our DJ for our wedding and wanted to let you know that we could not have been more pleased with his performance. Not only was David a pleasure to work with, he always made himself available by giving us his cell phone number (which I was not afraid to use!) so that if ever we had a question or needed help with the online planner David was just a call away. After our wedding, we received many compliments on the songs that David played, and how the volume was loud enough to enjoy but not too loud for the guests who were not out on the dance floor to have a conversation. He paid special attention to the requests that we made for things throughout the evening and periodically checked in with us to make sure that everything was alright. People packed the dance floor the whole night and did not want the party to end. We had such a positive experience working with David that we will definitely be recommending Sounds Abound, specifically David Wilner, to our friends and family. Thank you so very much!"

Beth & Mike Goetschel - December 29, 2006

"There aren't words to describe how thrilled I was with David for my wedding. he was beyond fantastic. Our guests loved him as well, which is really important to me. I was completely satisfied!"

Lisa & Scott Sepelis - November 18, 2006

"We were VERY pleased with our Sounds Abound experience. We talked with a least 15 other DJ companies and once we found Sounds Abound we instantly knew you were the right company. David Wilner was fabulous, both prior to the event and during the event. he was very helpful with choosing the music that worked for us. We knew that there was nothing to worry about with David at the wheel. I will tell anybody and everybody about David and Sounds Abound. David is a Huge asset for Sounds Abound!"

Jessica & Guy Tiberio - October 7, 2006

"David's performance at our wedding was nothing short of perfect. Not only did he play piano beautifully during the cermony, but his skills as a DJ are great! He has a great voice, is always professional, and knows how to read the crowd. We had the dance floor packed all night, and he played EVERY song that we asked for. He also coordinated with the rest of the vendors to keep the evening flowing. I didn't have to worry about a thing. You can tell he loves what he does. You Rock David!"

Kimberly & Rick Jandrain - August 19, 2006

"David was absolutely fabulous. He was energetic, friendly, easy to get in touch with and took great care of us throughout the night. After I first met with David to go over the details for our wedding night, I felt so relieved to know that he would be in charge of making sure everything went smoothly. I was free to enjoy myself and never once glanced at the time. David was always concerned with making sure my husband and I were happy. He was very responsive to our music requests and the requests of our guests. The online planner was also helpful and easy to use. Rick and I visited the website several times to choose the music we wanted to hear and prepare for the day. Thank you for making everything so wonderful!"

Carrie & Nick DeMarco - July 1, 2006

"David Wilner was our DJ and he and his assistant were fabulous. He was very much in control and extremely charismatic, which put me and my wife at ease. His music selection was exactly in line with w3hat we wanted, and his command over the crowd in rewpects to moving along the essential parts of the reception was appreciated. I'm sorry that it has taken me this long to write this review, but I would say that of all the things we did for the reception we were most impressed and happy with our DJ. Thanks to David and his assistant."

Laura & Darren Enger- May 12, 2006

"David was so wonderful. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ. He played all the songs we chose in such a great order that kept all our family and friends out on the dance floor all night. I don't think there was a moment when no one was out there....the kids had a ball!! We have had one compliment after another on how wonderful the music was and how it was just the best party after a beautiful wedding. So, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our day so perfect!!"

Kelly & Roy Desmond - December 10, 2005

"I met with David before the wedding and felt so confident in his ability to make the evening memorable. I left EVERYTHING in his hands. He selected the PERFECT music for my guests, and surprised even me with the amount of people he kept on the dance floor all night (including me)!!! He completely understood what kind of party I wanted it to be, and he NAILED IT! What a fabulous time we all had!"

Marie & John Bucklar - August 6, 2005

"David Wilner was the utmost professional. He fully understood what we wanted at our reception and he far exceeded our expectations. We provided David with an extensive song list that he did play. In addition, he also played other songs of his choice, which we were also very happy to hear. He set the tone for the evening from the introductions to the very last song. The dance floor was packed all night long. our family and friends are still talking about how much fun they had at our wedding. Thak you David!"

John & Terri Palmer (Parents of the Bride)
Palmer / Binkowski Wedding - December 18, 2004

"David was the DJ for our daughter's wedding on December 18, 2004. He was AWESOME! As he will tell you, the dance floor was NEVER empty, partly due to our wonderful friends and family and a large part to his ability to keep things going. He was polite, friendly, courteous, sensitive to everyone in the room, a wonderful speaker and he commanded the audience. We have received many many compliments on his performance. We enjoyed him very much, we had a great time at "OUR" party and the good news for your company is that we were the first of many to follow, so we will recommend your company and David in particular. Thanks again."

Bill and Tracy May - September 18, 2004

"David did a fantastic job of keeping the dance floor packed - even past midnight. He also did a great job of respecting what music we didn't want to hear - even when it was requested. David's job with the music really set the tone for our evening, and we were thrilled with the service we received both before our wedding date and on the actual day of. I'd recommend you to anyone."
