DJ's Couture

DJ’s Couture was founded in July, 1995, by Eric Ciepluch, the current CEO and owner, operating just one system of equipment. While working for other companies in the area previous to ownership of DJ’s Couture, Eric felt a need to offer something different to clients in the Southeastern Wisconsin area. While in college, his parents, David and Deborah Ciepluch, encouraged him to start his own business. Year by year, DJ’s Couture has slowly expanded its operations.  By 1998, it had blown into a full-time business, which surpassed the original plans of just being a part-time business to help put Eric through college.

In 1998, Eric was nominated for the the Collegiate Entrepreneur of the Year Award by one his professors at UW-Whitewater, Bill Lowell, owner of Business Development Directives. Much to Bill and Eric’s delight and surprise, Eric won 2nd place for the entire state of Wisconsin. We will always be thankful for Bill Lowell’s thoughtfulness…thank you, Bill!

In late 2005, Eric met his wife Ilona Ciepluch, and she immediately joined the DJ’s Couture team, becoming an instrumental and vital part of the ‘behind the scenes’ operations, handling everything from accounting to marketing, and most importantly, producing the slideshows/montages that are beautifully displayed at receptions and parties. It was Ilona’s passion and vision to create the licensing dream of DJ’s Couture. Because of all this dedication and hard work, she has now elevated to the level of CEO…congratulations, Ilona!

In 2007, The Knot.com (a national publication and website for brides) chose DJ’s Couture a Top Pick by local brides for the state of WI.  Thank you to all of you who voted for us.

Most recently also in 2009, Wisconsin Bride chose DJ’s Couture as the Best of 2009 in the disc jockey category as the ONLY company chosen.
