Award Winning Chicago Wedding DJ
Nominated by The Knot and Wedding Wire as Chicago’s DJ of choice, we’ve provided entertainment for thousands of events and over 500 epic wedding celebrations.
“Hot Mix was easy to work with. We had the best time. We danced, our friends danced and the music was exactly what we wanted!”
These guys are such pros! Of all of the people we hired for our wedding Hot Mix Entertainment was by far the best to work with. They were helpful, responsive and delivered. If I had to do it again Hot Mix would be on the top of my list. Thank you for contributing to the success of our reception.
Scott was a perfect 10! I can't imagine a better DJ for our wedding... We knew he was good when we hired him, but he honestly blew us away at the wedding. He NAILED it! Cocktail hour was full of our favorite music and set the perfect tone for the night. At the reception, his announcements were perfect, and it was obvious that he has many years of radio/emcee experience. But most importantly, our guests danced all night and so did we! We had the BEST time. I also heard from friends that he handled the guests who had less-than-awesome song requests really well. Scott is a consummate professional. He knows music and how to run a room, and he has all the best quality equipment. I could not be happier with our decision to hire Scott, and I will recommend him to everyone I know!
We chose Hot Mix because of Scott. We met at his office and we were so impressed. He’s such a pro at what he does. We couldn’t have been happier with the way our wedding turned out. He took care of our ceremony, the dinner music and the dancing. He kept people on the floor and played a great selection of music. Everything was just perfect.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Need I say more? You want a pro in the DJ industry here he is. Scott Smokin’ Silz.
Scott is a great DJ. I’m so glad we went with him. He kept the crowd engaged and dancing. He kept great music playing. He really put on an amazing show. It was everything we asked for and much more. Thanks for making our night so special!
My fiancee put me in charge of hiring a DJ which I thought would be a daunting task, until I met Scott. Hired him on the spot. Music was perfect and the dance floor packed all night.
