DJ Matt Griffo was absolutely terrific at our wedding reception. He emceed the event smoothly and read the crowd perfectly throughout the night. We dealt with some weather issues toward the end of the reception, and Matt was flexible and we pivoted indoors seamlessly. I highly recommend Matt and the rest of the GLT team!

We got married a couple of weeks ago in Chicago and used GLT to book both our ceremony/cocktail hour strings and our reception DJ. From the beginning, they made everything *so* easy. Imani from GLT made the process of choosing a DJ super easy, and they clearly know the individuals who make up their roster well – we wanted our wedding to be one giant dance party, so she recommended Matt Griffo (Griffo) because of his ability to read the room and make sure people are dancing. They also set us up with a trio from Chicago Street Strings for the ceremony/cocktail hour, who were amazing and easy to work with and learned a new song for us for our recessional for free. We got *so many* compliments on them!!! And, as wanted, Matt had people dancing the entire reception, honored all of our weird little requests, and stayed in contact with us in a behind-the-scenes way during the reception to make sure everything was perfect. GLT's pre-event music form also made everything so much easier. Would 100% recommend them to anyone!!!!

Our wedding DJ, Matt Griffo, through Green Line Talent, did a truly amazing job performing and selecting music for our big day! My husband and I cannot recommend his creative talent enough. If you are looking for someone to perform for your upcoming event or your big day, our loved ones were absolutely raving about how fun the music was and how there was a great balance of something for everyone! That included Polish and Italian selections that got some of our more stubborn family members out on the dance floor, too and was so special to see!

Matt is truly an outstanding musician, as he played the piano during cocktail hour for us and truly added to the magic and sense of ambiance that started off our wedding reception. He is incredibly talented as a pianist and a musician in all regards, though this musical ability truly added a special touch to our cocktail hour.

When it came time for dinner and introductions, Matt was enthusiastic and jubilant in a way that our guests leaned into as well! He did a great job setting the tone and getting the positive energy going right away. Matt's musical selections for the dance floor were, however, especially notable as all of our loved ones were dancing the whole night all the way to the point that we had to leave the venue! Matt's talent for music and truly knowing an audience as well as his genuine understanding and consistent check-ins with us throughout the evening made things run super smooth and made our big day an incredibly fun and successful event! Matt even shared some amazing video footage he got from his angle on the stage with us before we even left the venue and we were laughing and smiling at all of our family and friends' interesting and silly dance moves after we left the reception hall. It was so special he went out of his way to share those videos with us right away! He truly cared about making our wedding day extra special and was willing to go out of his way to do so.

Beyond the day-of, Matt was great at coordinating and collaborating with us and was attentive to our questions as well as our suggestions in order to ensure our day could be personalized but in a way that was well-guided by his expertise! He was beyond flexible and even called to check in and verify the details prior to the night-of. We are so thankful to Matt for knowing his stuff and to Green Line Talent for their well-organized services, dedicated team, timely responsiveness, and fabulous customer care! Thank you so much, Green Line Talent and Matt Griffo!

My husband and I chose to go with Green Line Talent for our wedding back in May and it was the BEST decision! We absolutely loved their dedication to finding the right DJ to fit our vibe. We worked with Matt Griffo and we could not have been happier. He was so easy and fun to work with. We had a movie theme wedding & he even surprised us on the wedding day with an extensive playlist of music from movies throughout the decades to start playing during cocktail hour. He exceeded all of our expectations and we 100% recommend him and Green Line Talent.

As a wedding planner in Chicago, I have had the opportunity to work with many DJs for all types of events.

We average 25+ weddings a year, and about 70% of the receptions will hire DJs for their wedding ceremonies and receptions.

I met Matt Griffo from Green Line Talent this past year, and he was a joy to work with. My clients had a very specific playlist, and Matt did an excellent job executing everything they wanted.

Working in the wedding industry for more than ten years, what I appreciate the most about Matt is that he’s dependable, always on time, and excellent at getting the wedding party together to do introductions (keeping things on schedule!) which is not easy when everyone is going in different directions.

In general, Matt is great to work with, and I look forward to doing many more events together.

Matt Griffo from Green Line Talent was the perfect DJ for our October 2021 wedding reception. He was a proactive communicator & was flexible leading up to our wedding day as well as during the event, making sure we were on the same page with the schedule and ensuring our guests had a great time. Our guests loved to dance and Matt knew how to deliver; our dance floor was packed the whole night! We loved working with DJ Matt and would absolutely work with him again.

We had the pleasure of working with DJ Matt Griffo from Green Line Talent for our wedding day. Matt was a great communicator both throughout the planning process and day-of, and I appreciated his flexibility and collaboration to keep the day running smoothly. He kept me up-to-speed throughout the event how we were tracking to schedule and made sure we were having a good time. Our group loved to dance, and Matt fully delivered on the reception playlist. Absolutely zero audio issues throughout all the speeches, too! Thank you Matt and the Green Line team for one heck of a party!

Green Line Talent is incredible!! We booked them as our DJ/MC for our ceremony and reception. They truly know music, and it was amazing how they were able to create so many different moods and vibes within our day. They are responsive to the crowd and seem to play the most perfect songs at the right time. They also really listened to our requests throughout the process while offering guidance on the timeline of our ceremony to guarantee everything went smoothly.

Green Line Talent was amazing to work with! Their speed at answering questions and emails is unmatched and they have a great selection of DJs and bands. After diving into my and my partner’s musical tastes, we were matched with Matt who was amazing! Matt was so fun to work with! He has great taste in music and was so knowledgeable that he even recommended albums and music that we enjoyed outside the scope of the wedding. Matt was excellent at reading our crowd and knew exactly when to switch it up to keep everyone enjoying themselves.​

We hired Matt Griffo just a week and a half before our wedding! We originally were going to go without a DJ but realized that with all of the little details day-of we really needed someone to help with the ceremony music, cocktail hour, and MC-ing for the reception. Matt came through for us right when we needed him and did not disappoint! We received compliments from multiple people on the music selection and our officiant even asked if we had a wedding coordinator (we did not) since everything went so smoothly. We attribute a lot of the "smoothness" to Matt and his ability to keep track of the schedule, when we were supposed to transition to dinner, and when toasts (we had a lot!) were supposed to happen. We couldn't be happier having Matt DJ/MC our wedding and highly recommend him! Thank you Matt and Green Line Talent!

Let me begin by saying that not only was DJ Matt the most talented DJ we have ever witnessed, but he exceeded our expectations in every way possible. From his piano playing at cocktail hour (and at midnight NYE!!!!), to outstanding performance as a MC/ DJ…Matt was nothing short of fantastic. He routinely checked in with us to ensure that everything was going to plan and helped us structure our wedding through his experience and knowledge.  His guidance proved essential to the success of the evening as Ash and I obviously lost track of time and any semblance of structure as soon as the reception began.

I will recommend DJ Matt to anyone who will listen and look forward to hopefully attending another wedding/event where you are playing.  Thank you so much for everything you did to help us out in preparation and for being such a great, wholesome company.
 
I only wish we would have thought of the Rap sooner so we could have practiced more and actually done it!!!
 
Ps- Ash wanted me to pass along her compliments to Matt for his “dapper” attire for NYE…inclusive of three piece suit and pocket watch!​

I had the pleasure of working with Matt Griffo twice this summer- the first time was at Chicago Botanic Gardens where we had a (whacky) family dynamic-  there was a band (full on 8-piece bluegrass family band) playing for cocktail hour- FOB decided at the last minute that the band would also play at dinner-  

Matt wound up having to switch up his whole program, make room for them, introduce them. Fill in when they went on breaks- it was crazy-  I have worked with many deejays and all I can tell you is that very few people would have handled this client's crazy change of plans so professionally.  Not only was Matt totally flexible and accommodating- he actually approached it with enthusiasm!! My assistant and I were both so impressed-- 

Fast forward to Cafe Brauer last weekend- where FOB waited until guest arrival (against my advice) to bring his DVD which he needed for his AV presentation/toast.. The media was not readable- (something was wrong with the disc and of course they only brought one copy) and It simply wouldn't work-obviously story short, we had some hectic, crazy moments of semi-panic then the woman who produced the video descended upon our night with a box of cables to help fix the problem.   This person was so rude and unprofessional-  very unfriendly to all of us, especially Matt-  she was not a wedding guest, she was only there for about 30 minutes and then finally she was gone like a bad dream- again, Matt never lost his cool and really was as accommodating as ever- a total PRO- I cannot tell you enough how lovely he is to work with!

​Dear Matt: 
Thank you a million times for your wonderful work that helped make our wedding as special as it was.  

As a psychologist and a writer, I spend a lot of time thinking about words.  But the purity and power of this wedding experience was so profound I already see I will never be able to adequately express my gratitude in words.  Your contribution to the evening, including allowing Eric to sing me one of the most special gifts of my life, is deeply appreciated.  

You and Al are consummate professionals and it was our pleasure to have you there on this most sacred evening of our lives.

Directly from the get go DJ Matt put us at ease. He met us at the cocktail hour, after pictures and said "everything is going great, we are all set - now how can I help you?".

The dance floor was packed the entire night, to the point that people were chanting "one more song" at the end of the night (being 1:30am). DJ Matt pleased the crowd by playing one more song. I think we could have gone on all night if the W would have let us.

​So many people came up to us and couldn’t believe how quickly the night went (great music will do that). Not once did my wife or I have to request or say anything to Matt. He progressed the night perfectly, read what the crowd was feeling and really controlled the party. At numerous points through out the evening even our 80+ year old grandparents were up there dancing.

​Dear Matt: 
Thank you a million times for your wonderful work that helped make our wedding as special as it was.  

As a psychologist and a writer, I spend a lot of time thinking about words.  But the purity and power of this wedding experience was so profound I already see I will never be able to adequately express my gratitude in words.  Your contribution to the evening, including allowing Eric to sing me one of the most special gifts of my life, is deeply appreciated.  

You and Al are consummate professionals and it was our pleasure to have you there on this most sacred evening of our lives.  

Julia & Eric

Directly from the get go DJ Matt put us at ease. He met us at the cocktail hour, after pictures and said "everything is going great, we are all set - now how can I help you?".

The dance floor was packed the entire night, to the point that people were chanting "one more song" at the end of the night (being 1:30am). DJ Matt pleased the crowd by playing one more song. I think we could have gone on all night if the W would have let us.

​So many people came up to us and couldn’t believe how quickly the night went (great music will do that). Not once did my wife or I have to request or say anything to Matt. He progressed the night perfectly, read what the crowd was feeling and really controlled the party. At numerous points through out the evening even our 80+ year old grandparents were up there dancing. 
 

Matt & Katie
