Your wedding is a joyous time, and you want someone with tons of experience who knows how to read the crowd, dial into its energy, and keep everyone pumped (while also carving out a little time for older relatives and adorable toddlers to join in). The marriage is for the two of you, but the wedding celebration is for everyone!

So, who is Joe Nardi? He's the man who makes your music work and has a trunkful of testimonials to prove it. Chances are you've heard him at a wedding you've attended. He's worked all the best wedding venues in the area and knows the best options for setting up in each of them. 

It may seem daunting to find the right DJ for your wedding when so many come and go. But Joe has staying power, a proven ability to change with the times and the music trends, and a killer library of tunes. He's always been known as an innovator of the Chicago dance music scene.

You may also have heard Joe DJ in a Chicago nightclub or on the airwaves of Chicago's B96. You may even have heard him on the air during the B96 Eddie and Jobo morning show when Joe would often be sent out on the streets to perform crazy stunts, which contributed to his Joe "NAW-T-BOY" handle. His unique style of mixing has been igniting dance floors for years, just as it will at your Chicago wedding!

Throughout his DJ career, Joe Nardi has created some of Chicago's most legendary mixtape series, including Afterhours (It's 5 AM, do you know where your children are?), Heart Attack, Freestyles Most Wanted, Energy Anthems, and Club Anthems, just to name a few. 

While most of his weekends these days consist of DJ-ing some of the largest and most elite weddings in the Chicago area, you can also find Joe at many area clubs and lounges. Currently, these include Draft Bar Chicago, Gibsons Steak House in Oak Brook, the V-Lounge in Addison, and Taverna on Division St. in Melrose Park, along with many other guest spots he plays throughout the year. 

Joe Nardi is best known for his blend of old school and new school mixes. While many of today's DJs will play only the current TOP 40 hits, Joe will take you and your guests on a journey that explores many genres. That keeps the dance floor fresh and the energy level at an all-time high throughout the night. Things never get boring! Regardless of your style or wedding theme, Joe's multi-layered talent, deep library, and extensive musical knowledge will help you create a great reception and wonderful memories for everyone who attends. And that's why you want Joe Nardi, the best wedding DJ in Chicago, for your big day!
