He was the best DJ I have heard and I have been to many weddings! Also very responsive to requests, a lot of fun, interactive and he has a spectacular photo booth and a GREAT scrapbook he puts together from photo booth pics!. I can go on and on because he provided sooo many good memories for my Daughter's wedding! I can not even or ever imagine using any other DJ!!! He also had all the right music! Truly Amazing! Thank You Conquest Entertainment!

As a part time wedding planner, and sister/moh of the bride, if I could give Conquest Entertainment 6 stars across the board I would. Leading up to the wedding, Joel was nothing short of patient and understanding with the picky music selections and schedule changing. His flexibility and professionalism shined throughout the entire planning process and it was easily seen that he did everything he could to make it as easy on the bride and groom as possible. The day of the wedding, not only was he on time and prepared, he went above and beyond to make sure the entire wedding party was comfortable, ready and had everything they needed to make the grand entrance as grand as possible! The rest of the night went without a hitch, he catered to the guests musical requests while respecting the brides 'No Play List' wishes, had everyone dancing the night away with the great music selection and on point mixing abilities (yes, the mixing does matter!), and was a true contribution to the special night. I will suggest him to any brides I work with in the future, and would not use anyone else for my own wedding when that time comes!

I am so glad my husband and I decided to go with Joel and Conquest Entertainment for our wedding! He caem highly recommended to me by a co-worker and she raved about how quick he was with responding to emails and phone calls and that he gave her really good suggestions and ideas. After our first meeting with him, I could see what she was raving about! Within a half hour of my first email to him, he responded. He worked around our schedule to meet with us and after only one meeting, we booked him! He was the only DJ we interviewed, which some may think is risky, but Joel was able to instill enough confidence in us about his talent, passion and ability, we knew we had the right guy! Leading up to the wedding, he remained attentive and fast with his repsonses to emails. The day of the wedding, he kept us on track and made the whole reception flow smoothly, never allowing the guests to even suspect that there were any hiccups on my end with photos and wedding day business! Knowing that he had things under control made my day so much easier. Our guests loved the music and the dance floor was packed all night! He really was in tune with the crowd and had an amazing ability to know the right song to play at the right moment. Our guests loved every moment! Even my dad was impressed and wants to book him again and he can be a tough critic! Overall, Joel is amazing and really wants to make sure your day is special and exactly what you want. He offers great suggestions and ideas, remains cool and collected during the event and keeps your guests enterainted. BOOK HIM! You won't regret your decision. :)

Thanks Sam!

I had so much fun at your wedding! There was an incredible amount of love and energy in the room from your guests that connecting with them was very natural. Everything worked out and I couldn't have asked for a cooler couple to work with!

Joel at Conquest Entertainment was so easy to work with. He took all of our desires for cocktail hour and reception and made them happen! We were specific about the type of music we wanted and didn't want... he made sure to clear it with me when my mom decided last minute she want to hear the electric slide. Thanks for everything!!

My husband and I couldn't be happier for choosing Joel from Conquest Entertainment to be the DJ at our wedding. From day one he was professional, responsive, and clearly had a natural talent and love for music. He kept in contact with us during our wedding planning and provided us with a great online tool to make planning our music very easy. On the day of our wedding Joel came through for us and made our wedding reception perfect. We did not want a typical DJ and we certainly did not get one! He did not just play a playlist of songs and fade some in and out, he mixed the music and kept the crowd going. There was not a single moment when the dance floor was not packed with guests dancing, old and young! We have gotten so many compliments about Joel in the weeks since our wedding. We would recommend him to anyone getting married, you will not be disappointed!

FANTASTIC DJ! I would definitely use Joel again. Not only a great DJ but such a nice and accommodating guy. He has great ideas and suggestions for a fun but classy wedding and reception. Everyone at the party had a great time. No one was left out, music for every generation and style.
I look forward to our next party with Joel.

Joel was awesome! Not only did he make suggestions regarding my music selections but he was practically my wedding planner! he knew so much about the process and what would make the evening fun for my guests and recommended a photo booth which was a HUGE hit! Joel was extremely professional and kept my dance floor packed solid all night. His "set up" was a really nice looking, discrete booth compared to other DJ's I have seen with just a folding table and tablecloth and cords all over and sloppy. Most importantly my guests made really nice compliments about how great he was all night. Thanks to Joel and Conquest Entertainment, our wedding was amazing!!!!

We heard about Joel through a friend who had seen him at a wedding before, and boy was he right! Joel went above and beyond our expectations. He helped turn the daunting task of selecting ceremony music into a breeze with great suggestions that just fit perfectly. We have a very diverse group of friends and family and we were worried that people weren’t going to dance but it was the exact opposite! We couldn’t even pull people away from the floor for pictures, we had to take them right on the dancefloor. Even my aunts and uncles jumped into our “Soul Train line”.


Joel played all of our requests and even thought up some stuff we had forgotten about, it was a blur and it was perfect. I will never forget March 27th, 2011!!!!

Joel helped make our wedding reception what it was. We work late hours and he was more than happy to take calls late at night to help us pick songs for our ceremony and dances and helped us plan our reception. We got a lot of compliments on the dinner music, and my family was glad that he didn't exclude them from the dancing. There was something for everybody, the floor was packed all night everyone told us it was the most fun wedding they had ever been to! Thanks again Joel! :)

Describe your DJ style:
We are very fun and easy to work with. In addition to being very customer service oriented, we enjoy being able to personalize service based on your hobbies, jobs, and lifestyle. We believe STRONGLY in programming and flow, with a superior ability to mix and blend music.
Is there a limit to the amount of music that can be requested?
Yes and No. A DJ really only get to play about 60-70 songs after dancing starts, but I definitely take your request list into consideration. We work in as much of your requests as possible and play them at the perfect times. Any other music is based off of your requests.
What is your usual attire?
All black shirt, pants and jacket with a white tie, and often we will try to coordinate with your color scheme as well with respect to the tie.
If you do not have one of the songs pre-requested by the client, do you require that they provide it?
If I don't have it, there are a lot of avenues I can use to get the music legally. The cost is nominal to me and of no consequence.
How many other DJs do you work with?
I work with many high quality DJ's who share the same philosophy towards providing customer service as I do. In addition to sharing and learning, we all back each other up as well.
Is the client able to meet the DJ before booking?
It's a great idea to meet and greet! You'll be spending your whole day with your vendors, so it's important to know and like who you are working with.
Can the client submit a do-not-play list?
ABSOLUTELY!! Your Do Not Play's are just as important as your Must Plays.
Do you bring your own equipment?
Yes. All state of the art and well maintained. There is also back up equipment as well at every event just in case.
What (if any) special equipment, such as disco balls or lighting, is offered with your service?
There are upgradable options as far as lighting. Our standard package comes with one multi-functional light that provides the right kind of light for slow as well as fast dancing. (it's really cool!)
How much time do you usually need to set up? Do you require that the site or client provide a table for you to set up on?
I get to an event at least 2 hours early. This gives me more than ample time to set up and test everything. I also then have time to speak with other vendors and the venue staff.
Do you have a sign or banner that you use at events?
We do NOT advertise at your events. We don't even announce the company name over the mic. If someone wants to know who we are, they will ask us.
Do you usually emcee the event or talk between songs?
The mic is only used for important announcements, such as introductions, and announcements of first dances, cake cutting, etc. We keep it very low key, and do not make goofy or cheesy comments to your guests. We let the music talk for us.
How would you motivate the crowd if no one is dancing?
If a song doesn't work, we get out of it cleanly and quickly. We try and interact with your guests and bridal party during cocktail to find out more about what they like. We pride ourselves at reading a crowd, and we can always find the right music for the job.
What is your policy on taking breaks? If you require a meal break, do you require that the client provide your meal?
We certainly enjoy a meal, though it is not required. If you seat us at a table with guests, it allows us to interact more with them and therefore give us even more information to help program the music.
Will you arrange for recorded music to play during your breaks?
We don't take breaks.
What is your backup plan in case you become unavailable on the day of the event?
We are members of the ADJA and also work with some very reputable DJ companies in the area. There are always DJ's who are not booked, who are on "standby" in case of emergency. We handle documents in music in such a way that if your DJ becomes unable to make it to your event, a backup DJ can step in and perform with no problems.
Do you book yourself for more than one event in a day?
No. The DJ you book with is the DJ you have on your wedding day.
What is your overtime rate?
A DJ package includes 8 hours of time, so that way, if the party is rocking and if your venue lets you stay for a little while longer, you need not worry about paying the DJ. (excludes ceremony)
Do you charge for travel expenses? If yes, how much do you charge?
We DJ within a 50 mile radius of Chicago, there will be a small travel charge outside of that radius.
What is the required deposit to secure your services?
200.00 secures the date and the DJ
