Description

Hello, My name is Lisa Martin, and I would like to introduce Main Event Productions to you. My husband Daniel & I have been in the Karaoke/DJ business professionally for almost 10 years now, and I can honestly say those years have taught us a lot. Even before starting our own business Dan & I attended over 30 shows learning what works, and what doesn't in this industry.We came to the conclusion that a good library,a good sound, and above all a great report with your guests is what sets you apart from others. We have prided ourselves on those 3 principals. We currently have over 32,000 songs to choose from, top of the line equipment such as Peavy, NuMark & Samson, and our client report goes UNMATCHED in the industry. My husband Dan has over 15 years experience in the electronics field interning at WXLC radio station. Myself, I have been a Karaoke junkie for over 20 years, so let's just say, I can honestly say I have been on both sides of the fence. Dan & I still attend other Karaoke/DJ shows to keep current with trends, and to just plain relax. So, as you can see, we are very involved in what we do, and it shows in our performances. The intent of this was to introduce ourselves to you, and give you a little background as to our experience.Dan & I would love to sit and chat with you more about this exciting phenomenon.We currently run our shows off of our computer which gives us access to unlimited resources. We are here to serve you, our client, in whatever your needs are.

Feedback

  • We were so happy with our choice of Main Event Productions. We thought our requests and taste might be a little odd and out of the normal, but Main Event Productions worked it into our wedding with all the classical wedding music more perfectly than we could have imagined, and at one of the best prices we were quoted on in our search. They're wonderful to work with, and know plenty of other professionals in the wedding industry to help with recommendations, and having possibly already worked with other people involved in your event. -- Joshua W, Wheeling, IL, 6/3/2011
  • Dan arrived early to set up-he was dressed in a fleece with the co. logo-I thought ok he will change for our event-set up went well and everything we had asked for was provided-we danced to a variety of music as requested.All enjoyed the evening. But he was still dressed in the fleece-a white shirt and dark pants would have been more presentable. his partner helped us line dance and a good time was had by all. Appearance is our only comment -- Peggy N, Deerfield, IL, 10/8/2011
  • main event was by far the most reasonably priced DJs around. they were very friendly, were very accomodating to our needs, kept the little ones busy with fun songs until we arrived (it was a surprise party)and we received many compliments from our guests saying how nice they were to work with & great about requests, games etc... -- Fran L, Schaumburg, IL, 10/23/2010
  • This couple put on an awesome performance! Everyone at the party enjoyed them and we could not have a better dj. We were able to chose everything and they helped guide us through everything. We were so happy with the djs and they made the wedding memorable. We were impressed, they are well skilled and were able to meet all our needs. -- Melissa V, Glendale Heights, IL, 7/17/2010
  • They did a great job with song suggestions when we were stuck picking songs for parts of the wedding. They were also great with working with last-minute changes to the wedding - our ceremony was supposed to be outdoors but was moved inside due to rain, and they were able to reconfigure their equipment in time..Everything was great. They did a good job getting people on the dance floor, and had just enough interation with our guests. They also adhered to the "do not play list" which was great! :) -- Robin S, Geneva, IL, 5/21/2010
  • Main Event Production provided us with exceptional service. From the initial meeting to the wedding day they were more than accommodating of our needs and request. We would defiantly recommend them for for another wedding reception! -- Lindsay V, Zion, IL, 5/22/2010
  • Great Job. They were setup on time, complied with our requests and co-operated thorughout the evening. Our guests were very pleased. They are reliable and efficient. A real pleasure to work with. The event is an annual one, and we will be hiring them again next year. -- William S, Chicago, IL, 3/6/2010
  • When i met up with Lisa & Dan from Main Event Productions I immediately felt at ease and like i was not just dealing with professionals but with a friend. They treat their clients with the highest respect and everything is our call. They meet up with your at your earliest convenience, they give you popular song choices and so much more to take the stress off, and put your mind at ease. At the wedding i was so impressed, we had a tough crowd, and they seemed to please everyone, and me being their toughest critic being the bride i was blown away. I would def. recommend them to any bride or couple out their looking for an amazing DJ at amazing rates. -- Daniel S, Buffalo Grove, IL, 1/8/2010
  • We loved that the couple worked as a team and played to their individual strengths. Our guests appreciated the musical selection and its volume. -- Greg F, Huntley, IL, 1/1/2010
  • They were pleasant and accommodating to our needs. Well worth the cost. Had a variety of music and willing to work with our requests. -- Lucy M, Des Plaines, IL, 12/5/2009
  • I used Main Event productions for two events within a month and was extremely pleased! They provided a comibination of DJ music and Karaoke at our wedding reception and then provided DJ services for a fund raising event at my workplace. They were very flexible to "on-the-spot" changes and requests while remaining professional in every way. I was so impressed that Lisa wanted to meet with me face to face, even though she lives in the next state, to be sure she understood my requests. They have excellent equipment and even helped us with a media presentation at the fundraiser. I would recommend Main Event Production to anyone needing these services! -- Laura D, Racine, WI, 10/16/2009
  • Main Event Productions was perfect for our event. The crowd loved the songs they chose. In addition, they surprised us with some games for the guests to play that were fun and went with our retirement theme. I would recommend them for your next event! -- Linda W, Gurnee, IL, 10/2/2009
  • I have a confession...I was nervous to hire Main Event Productions because they were so inexpensive. We all know the expression "you get what you pay for" well that was not the case with this company, we got way more then we paid for! They were kind, professional, classy, and sincerely wanted our wedding to be a success. We can not say anything bad about them. They came all the way to Milwaukee from Illinois to go over our contract and final details with us. They were available through email and over the phone, always responding promptly. They were very helpful and not "flashy" like some djs. -- Christy D, Milwaukee, WI, 8/15/2009
  • Main Event Productions made our day very special and fulfilled all of our special requests. We would recommend Main Event Productions for any of your events. They really know how to read the crowd and make your day fun for all. Thanks! -- Janet D, Mchenry, IL, 8/8/2009
  • They were polite and very curtious to the needs of our gathering. I really liked the fact they also had facts from 1959 and 1991. -- Charlotte W, Addison, IL, 8/9/2009
  • They did a great job! Played all of the right songs and were very accompdating. -- Derek B, Windsor, WI, 7/25/2009
  • Lisa & Dan did a great job at our wedding reception! We had several special requests (such as a guest announcer, the bride announcing the groom/mother dance with a twist, and an interruption for Chicago Style hot dogs, just to name a few), but Main Event Productions stayed on top of it with us and moved things right along. We had a great time that evening, and with so many things to worry about that day, it was great not to have to worry about the music. -- Emily J, Cicero, IL, 6/27/2009
  • My Name is Tina and we just hosted a post wedding reception. Lisa and Dan (Main Event)were great!!! They arrived on time and provided the atmosphere we were looking for. Our guests enjoyed the selections of music and other entertainment they brought. We will be hiring them for our next big event. If you want a great service, look no further!!! The price was excellent. I would recommend them to anyone for any event!!! -- Tina M, Zion, IL, 6/20/2009
  • I was extremely impressed and satisfied with main event productions! They did a fantastic job, props, games, little info tidbits etc. for my mom's 50th! They were great, and i had many compliments from friends and family who atteneded! GREAT JOB! THANK YOU! -- Brandy P, Elgin, IL, 5/16/2009
  • Did all we asked them to do and showed up for the event on time. Even helped with the catered food. Very friendly. -- Christine B, Glen Ellyn, IL, 3/7/2009
  • Main Event was very accommodating and willing to work with me over email and with a minimum of face-to-face contacts, which was very helpful since I was planning this event from a distance of 200 miles away. The choice and variety of musical selections were great to listen to and created a fun and energizing atmosphere, and those of my guests who were inclined to dance were consistently kept on the dance floor. The DJs were also very flexible to take requests both before and during the event. All in all, Main Event offers an excellent value for their services. -- Rachel M, Crystal Lake, IL, 1/3/2009
  • Great fun and music for everyone of all ages. They did a really great job on my Halloween Bash. Costumes and games for everyone involved. -- Jared B, Evanston, IL, 10/31/2008
  • They were fantastic. They had all the music we requested, and handled on-the-spot requests. Several people at our wedding inquired about them. I said that the DJ's were very helpful and accomodating. They had a questionaire that really helped us tailor their services to fit our event, which relieved some of the stress of wedding planning. They contacted the site manager and worked everything out with her, so I didn't have to. They even worked overtime when asked. They made my event truly memorable. -- Kristin B, Geneva, IL, 10/18/2008
  • WONDERFUL!!!!! I can't say enough! -- Janine S, Plainfield, IL, 8/30/2008
  • THANK YOU FOR HAVING THE PATIENCE TO DEAL WITH MY HUSBAND AND FRIENDS VERY THOUGH CROUD YOU GUYS DID A GRATE JOB I HIGHLY RECOMEND YOU -- Claudia K, Union Grove, WI, 8/2/2008
  • Rock and Roll music was great. My employees enjoyed themselves. Unfortunately it was very HOT, therefore we did not have alot of involvement from employees. -- Susan M, Aurora, IL, 7/31/2008
  • Main Event Productions was fantastic. They were extremely accomodating for our outside, backyard wedding; very professional, comfortable and well-spoken on the mike; played a great song-list; and kept the dance floor full all night (even later than originally planned...no one was ready to go home yet)! I would hire them again, and would recommend them to my family and friends without hesitation. Thanks again to Lisa and Daniel! -Amanda and Isaac Cowart, East Troy, Wisconsin -- Amanda K, East Troy, WI, 5/31/2008
  • Words can't express how wonderful Dan and Lisa were in all aspects of planning and executing my daughter's 11th birthday party. From the first moment I spoke with Lisa, I knew that Main Event was the right organization for our party. From the lengthy song list that my daughter requested, to the lighting, party games and prizes, and numerous other special requests, Lisa made sure that every last detail was met and exceeded expectations. I would hire them again in a heartbeat and recommend them to anyone and everyone. Main Event made my daughter's birthday a huge success. Lisa and Dan, thank you again for an outstanding job. -- Stephanie G, South Barrington, IL, 3/1/2008
  • Dan was very nice and very accommodating to our needs. -- Dawn B, Highland Park, IL, 11/2/2007
  • They were great to work with and provided fun for all the ages at our party. -- Erika S, Western Springs, IL, 9/22/2007
  • Main Event was very easy to work with and were very flexible in accomodating any requests during the day at our corporate event. The range of music they played was great - it had everybody moving to the music and really helped energize our group. Main Event Productions is very passionate about what they do - and it shows in their work. I would certainly recommend them and their services. -- Natalie M, Libertyville, IL, 9/20/2007
