David did an awesome job with our wedding music! All of our guests had a fun night! He handled getting our wedding party all lined up and introduced! WE really enjoyed Sound by Design! Also the lighting was so beautiful!

Even our high expectations were exceeded! These guys are as good as they advertise - even better! We were so fortunate to book SBD when our original DJ disappeared. Recommended to us by our photographer, her description was simply, if you want the best, hire Sound By Design. We couldn't agree more.

They are amazing! Our dancefloor was packed all night long! The music they played appealed to all ages, and everyone had a great time! They listened to what we wanted, but they didn't need much guidance. They know what they are doing and how to keep a party going. They are the best there is!!!
I am Close too!

Bar none the BEST DJ you can get. If you want a DJ service that listens to what you want, plays what you want and keeps the party going. Sound by Design is the company to go with.
We had some pretty obscure songs we wanted to play during dinner and Ramsey without hesitation found them and played them all! The dance floor was packed all night long and thats exactly what we wanted! We also had the LED package added and man it was worth the little extra money. It made the room transform into a nice soft mood for dinner but once the dance started it turned into a downtown club. It was awesome, many compliments from our guests and we can not say enough great things about them! You want the best, then hire Sound by Design.

sound by design is by far the best dj in milwaukee! i met with paul at a bridal show because choosing a dj was the hardest thing for me in all the planning. after being bombarded by one too many cheesy dj's, paul and his brother david really stood out from the crowd...and there's a reason for it. they are so professional and really know how to read a crowd-they know what works and what kills the mood, so TRUST THEM! our dance floor was packed all night-my mom is still talking about how she's never seen a dance floor so crowded at midnight! plus, all my bridesmaids really enjoyed the cute eye candy :) (thanks again david! you were great!) they were really reasonable for our friday night wedding and also set up the equipment for our slideshow-seamless and professional.

Hands down best DJ in Milwaukee!! We were so pleased with their services. They did their job - played music - without trying to be the entertainer at the wedding. SBD was recommended to us by a friend, and we definitely are passing them along to everyone else we know getting married!

Sound By Design is the most classy, no-nonsense wedding DJ available. They are with the times and play music that is appealing to all age groups. Our dance floor was filled the entire night, from start to finish. Would highly recommend!

Excellent job!! We loved our DJs!! They did a great job with ceremony and reception music. They played great music, and if they ever sensed that a song wasn't going over well with the crowd they faded it and moved to another song. Great job selecting music and always checking with me and my husband about what we wanted to hear and playing our selections immediately. I would love to go to another wedding that they are djing at. We had at least two guest ask for their business card for their upcoming weddings!

Sound by Design did an excellent job. I loved the fact that we had 2 DJ's who were friendly and played songs we suggested. They have an excellent website that the wedding couple can go to before the wedding and enter all of their desired songs as well as the personal songs of the night. All of my guests had a great time, and I wish we could do it all over again.

We booked this DJ two weeks before my wedding when my other DJ canceled on me. The DJ was willing to accommodate me on such short notice. He was very professional on the wedding day. He did not do anything corny like DJs are known for. It turned out to be a very elegant event.

The DJ was great. I took a few days to get a reply when emailing or calling our DJ but I have to say the wait was worth it! Torey did an amazing job; he read the crowd great and played music that kept people dancing all night!

Torie from SBD ROCKED our wedding! He kept people dancing even though we had an outdoor terrace and the weather was gorgeous!! Keep up the good work guys. My only complaint was the lack of music during the fireworks. A few of our guests went inside and complained that there was no music played when most of the guests were outside. Some nice background music would've been nice. But other than that, good work!

Sound by Design DJ's did an amazing job at our wedding. The dancefloor was full up until midnight! All of our guests had a great time and all we kept hearing was how great the DJ's were. Sound By Design has done many of my friends wedding as well, and I would definately say that Paul Hackbarth and his team are by far the BEST throughout the greater Milwaukee area!

Very easy to work with. He let us give him quite a bit of music to play at the reception and did a great job working it in throughout the night. His website made selecting our special songs, must-play and do-not-play lists very easy!

This company only DJs for weddings. They are extremely professional and tailor their work to the couple's style and event. There is even a personalized website where each couple can add enter information about the wedding, and your "must play" and "do not play" lists. We met with our DJ a few weeks prior to our wedding, and we were able to call/email him whenever we needed to ask questions or make changes. Throughout the evening, our DJ checked in with us every hour to ask us how everything was going, to check if we needed to make any changes. Our guests loved the music and danced all night! We were both very happy with the whole experience.

Great DJs, kept people on the dance floor all night! A bit strong sales attempts on the "extras"-photo booth, travel agent, lighting, etc.

Sound by Design, We had our wedding at the Milwaukee Athletic Club on 09.24.11. Josh was our DJ and he was amazing!! We could not have asked for a better DJ. He made sure everything was on schedule and met all of our requests. And his shirt even matched our colors (not sure if you did that on purpose) :) :) Everyone told me how impressed they were with the DJ. AND the lights! The lights were worth every penny. It helped set the mood and looked amazing in the ballroom. Everyone danced, all night and when midnight came around no one wanted to leave, but we had to :) Thank you Zak for mixing our surprise first dance!! I can't thank you enough for being part of our special day! Thank you again! I would recommend you to anyone!

Overall great DJ service! We were very happy we went with Sound by Design for our wedding-the dancefloor was packed all night-literally! It was so fun to look over and see everyone having a great time. Slightly disappointed we didn't get to hear all the songs on our "must play" list but I think we just ran out of time. They also provided our lighting for an additional cost which we were also very happy with-the lighting looks really cool in the background of all of our pictures! Overall a great choice.
