Awarded Best of Zola
10/10 - Highly Recommend - even a MUST HAVE at your wedding! If you want to have the most fun wedding, with the BEST music of all time - hire The Hook Club for your wedding. I have two experiences with The Hook Club - the first was when I was a guest at a wedding in the Hamptons, my best friend got married and they played the best music, the wedding was high energy, happy and all the guests were on the dance floor the entire night! After seeing them live, I reached out to hire them for my wedding in Manhattan (at the NYAC right on Central Park South). I was so impressed by how pleasant and organized Jesse Feathersone and Dan Vernam were to work with. They are true professionals, they know what they are doing and they even supported me on how the wedding reception should flow. They made the preparation process so easy for me, through it I never had to worry about the band logistics because Jesse and Dan gave me the utmost confidence. They have a massive library of songs to choose from and they even learned special songs for the dances (first, mother/son and father/daughter) and special songs to play for us throughout the night - that kind of custom experience is so unusual with wedding bands - I couldn't believe how easy and positive the Hook Club handled these special requests. Every single guest at my wedding could not stop talking about how amazing the band was during and after the fact. My guests were on the dance floor singing and dancing and interacting with them all night. I can't emphasize enough how talented this group is - not just as talented musicians but as talented business people. If you are looking for a stress free experience and a truly talented one of a kind wedding band - HIRE THE HOOK CLUB!!

The Metropolitan Players are a NYC-based wedding band collective, created by a husband and wife team, with a mission to help you make musical memories.

We want your guests to leave saying, “that was the best wedding we’ve ever been to.”

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring the Metropolitan Players for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. I would give them a 10/5 if I could. The first thing people mention when we talk about our wedding was the band, and how it was the best wedding band that they have ever heard. If you are looking for a band that will engage all your guests and entice them to be on the dancefloor all night look no further! Not only did the band exceed every expectation on the day of, but Erin & Drew were a dream to work with throughout the planning process. The best way I can describe the process is stress free and customized. Erin met with us several times to discuss our vision and get to know us as a couple. Drew then put the band together based on our top vocalist requests and music genre of interest. Even through a few COVID induced planning twists, namely changing our reception venue 2 months before the event, Erin & Drew worked with us every step of the way. Their flexibility and dedication to making our vision a reality went above and beyond. The Metropolitan Players’ ability to get to know their couples, bring your vision to life, and elevate the entire event beyond expectation makes them the all around best in the business. I am positive that you will love your experience with the Metropolitan Players!

As homegrown, native NYC-based wedding DJs, we allow the music to speak for itself in a way that is organic and authentic. We keep things simple and straightforward so you can focus on the most important part of it all — marrying your partner, soulmate and best friend. What you won’t get? A stereotypical, cheesy DJ stealing the spotlight and breaking up the music with bad jokes and unnecessary interruptions. You deserve better. Expect a personal and individualized celebration with great music, precise attention to detail and a fun-filled dance party — all based on 15 years of wedding experience.

Aria melody assigned DJ Jaime to our wedding. Let’s just say, our dance floor was PACKED the entire night. We had two logistics calls leading up to our event so that Jaime made sure that he had all the details he needed to made our event flawless, which he did. Jaime listened to our preferences and curated a playlist that had our guests so exhausted from dancing that half of them didn’t make it to the after party! Would highly recommend aria melody for your party needs!

Choosing a DJ for our wedding was hands down the scariest part of the planning process. We knew that a stellar DJ was imperative for a successful reception, and DJ Matty not only met but exceeded every expectation, making our dream day a reality! Early in the planning, Matty shared an app that was a game-changer to how we approached music for the entire day. This app became our musical headquarters, allowing us to build playlists on Spotify and seamlessly upload them and was so incredibly helpful throughout the process. In our final meeting leading up to the wedding, it was crystal clear just how seriously Matty took his role. He meticulously walked through every moment, discussing our music choices and must-plays to fully grasp the vibes we wanted for each part of the day. Any concerns we had about a surprise bad DJ vanished after that meeting. Beyond being our DJ, Matty also provided uplighting and live musicians for our ceremony and cocktail hour. They flawlessly played the unique songs we chose, setting the perfect tone. Matty's MC skills were phenomenal, keeping the reception flowing smoothly without any cringe-worthy moments – a vital quality for us. I might be biased, but our dance floor was the best I've ever seen. Matty effortlessly got everyone, from all age groups, onto the dance floor, blending our unique song choices with crowd-pleasers that kept the floor packed all night. Even my teenage nieces had the time of their lives! We've received countless compliments from guests about the fantastic music, and we owe it all to Matty. We are immensely grateful for him making our wedding the best day of our lives and will undoubtedly hire him again for future events!

The Brooklyn Beats

New York, NY
  • Band or Ensemble

The Brooklyn Beats is the inaugural event/wedding band founded by music industry veteran, Jon Shiffman. Jon is best known for his live work as a drummer for Grammy winner Jack Antonoff in the bands Steel Train and Bleachers. He has toured all over the world and his drumming can be heard on various National TV Commercials, and is featured in the 2024 release of Paramount Pictures’ Mean Girls movie. Since even before leaving the touring life in 2015, Jon has been a fixture in the New York private event/wedding band scene and has been a drummer, band leader, talent booker and event producer for the biggest agencies and bands in the area.

Do not sleep on booking The Brooklyn Beats! I’m positive this will be the most popular wedding band in NYC very soon! I was a big fan of Jon’s old band, Steel Train, and also saw him play drums when he was with Bleachers in 2015. Since then I’ve followed him on social media and when I heard he started his own wedding/event band, I couldn’t believe it lined up with me looking for a band for our big day! We debated a DJ versus a live band—but wow a live band is the way to go. They play every style of music which has everyone from your older relatives to your youngest friends singing and dancing for the ENTIRE night. The talent is unreal and the energy of a live band brings a night to a new level. Wish I could give more than 5 stars.

We’re an original band at heart with big dreams, but we’re also just passionate about playing music together in general.

After learning dozens of songs we curated, we decided to start playing as a cover/wedding band. We have a lot of heart and always try to bring the best possible energy to each performance we do. We mostly do billboard hits covers in various styles, decades and genres. We try and stay true to the sound and feel of the original recording but also try to modernize it and give it our own subtle unique spin.

Fortunately, they travel all over and were happy to come to Delaware for our 10/5/2019 wedding. Communication was smooth throughout the entire process, and they were completely open to working with us on our song list and catering to what we really love most. Their rendition of our first dance song was spot-on to what we hoped it would be. They played a consistently strong set all night and had everyone - and I mean everyone! - up and dancing.

They did everything and more! music while we walked down the aisle, walk out music into the reception, it was a dream come true the entire night. We keep getting rave reviews weeks after!

We had a vision of having my sibling sing one of our favorite songs as I walked down the aisle and Austin worked with them, learning the song, scheduling some practice time and made it happen seamlessly for what was a really incredible moment. I am so happy that we had him as a part of our wedding and would highly recommend him.

We can’t recommend Zach highly enough. Planning a wedding during the COVID pandemic wasn’t easy but Zach was more than flexible and accommodating with all the date changes. And when the date did finally come, he was extremely responsive to us regarding all the ceremony and reception planning and helped us with providing all the proper equipment (even some of it kind of last minute). When one of the songs we chose for the ceremony turned out to be a little too short for our procession, we let Zach know and he looped the song seamlessly to make it longer. He was punctual on the wedding day and prepared. He did a phenomenal job during the reception with the intros and announcing the toasts. And most importantly, the music he put together for the cocktail hour and reception was just top-notch. His music kept the dance floor packed from the moment the dance floor opened until the moment the reception ended. Several people mentioned to us how much they loved the music throughout the night and how good the DJ was. Do yourself a favor and book Zach for your event. You won’t be disappointed. We give him all the stars.

I highly recommend Electrified DJ Services if you are looking for a professional and energized DJ service. They go beyond the regular duties of a DJ to make your event (wedding, in my case) flow smoothly! There was an issue with the venue during my wedding, and we had to alter our timelines by over an hour. Ernest was so professional and helped to find a solution to this problem so my husband and I, as well as our friends and family, could enjoy our evening. The MC (Marlowe) kept the reception perfectly paced (even after the end of the event was moved up) without making my husband and me feel rushed or stressed. In addition, they did a spectacular job at choosing music that kept all our guests (of all ages) on the dance floor and having a wonderful time. I could not have asked for a better DJ and MC for my wedding reception.

If you need a DJ who can play ANYTHING and EVERYTHING you want - then Kelton is the one for you.

Awarded Best of Zola
Going into my wedding planning process, I knew that our crowd would skew older and probably not be too into dancing. This was a bummer for me as I love music and dancing! We also were blending two cultures (Hispanic and Russian) as well as an eclectic taste in music, so I was concerned that a DJ wouldn't be able to smoothly transition between all these "vibes". When I met with Kelton to discuss our wedding and these situations, he was so positive and reassuring that it made me feel a lot better. We stayed in touch over the months between the initial booking and the wedding, and he was always SO helpful and detail-oriented that it even helped other parts of the wedding schedule! On the big day, he arrived right on time and ready to go. He worked flawlessly with my venue and the officiant to make sure all the cues, announcements, etc were correct and timely. The ceremony went off without a hitch, but the reception was even better! Kelton managed to get EVERYONE - even our 65+ year old crowd - on their feet!! He had a huge variety of music, so there was really something for everyone. It was everything I dreamed of, made possible by Kelton's DJ skills and experience. Can't recommend him enough for your event!

We first encountered The Last Nites at one of my best friend's weddings in 2022 and knew immediately we had to have them perform for our reception as well. Communication with Waylan leading up to the wedding was seamless. He was responsive, attentive, and genuinely invested in understanding our preferences and the overall vibe we wanted for our celebration. Something that really stood out to us was the band's willingness to learn new songs for the occasion. The Last Nites were able to learn three specific songs for us and seamlessly incorporated them into their setlist. The level of dedication they showed in perfecting these songs added a personal touch to our reception that we will always cherish. Overall, the band just brought such incredible vibes to the reception. The energy they exuded was infectious, and our guests were on their feet the whole night because of it. 10/10 would recommend, our wedding wouldn't have been the same without them!!

The ceremony and cocktail hour music was exactly what we were looking for, and it was easy to see how much fun everyone was having on the dance floor. Justin also did a great job as an MC coordinating with us and other parties to keep everything moving smoothly.

BVTLive! was all around an excellent choice for our wedding. DJ Linx was amazing! His communication was incredible; he responded to our emails and messages quickly, usually within a few minutes to an hour. We ran through the whole night with him in a few video calls leading up to the wedding. We went through all family intro pronunciations and he double checked with everyone the day-of to make sure everything was correct. He worked with our day-of coordinator to ensure the timeline was correct and everything ran smoothly. We gave him a few spotify playlists that he stuck to very well, with a few additions that were perfect. He read the room very well and everyone had a great time - kids, adults, and older relatives. The midnighters were super easy to work with! They performed for both our ceremony and cocktail hour. They have a long list of songs they are able to play for the procession and recession, and learned one song from scratch for us - a song they had never played before - and it sounded amazing. We heard so many rave reviews from our guests about how great they were. We would highly recommend both of these artists and BVTLive! as a whole.

Dhoom Events DJed and emceed our Baraat and reception, did sound for our ceremony, and lighting at the reception as well. We are so happy with the service at all of these events. They were very accommodating when we needed to postpone our wedding multiple times due to the pandemic. When the day finally came for us to have our event, everything was perfect. DJ Milin did a great job getting the energy levels up at the Baraat, even on a chilly day. The reception music was perfect. Milin worked with us ahead of the event to make sure we would have a good mix of Indian and American music so that guests from both sides across multiple generations had a good time. He also helped us think through the logistics and timing of events, with valuable input from his experience with similar events. He did an amazing job the day of reading the energy of the crowd and keeping people on the dance floor all night. Having good music that guests would want to dance to was something that was super important to us, and we are so happy that we chose Dhoom Events to DJ and emcee our events! After the event, we got so many compliments on the music and how fun the dance floor was.

The Barnstorm isn't a "wedding" band. They're a band. A really great band. And that makes them the best wedding band, in our opinion. We went to one of their live shows before booking them to play at our wedding and we knew immediately they were perfect. The band is 7 guys who you would want to be friends with -- which makes them blend in seamlessly at a wedding. Their range of songs is awesome. Everyone raved about their playlist, including a few of our guests who are huge music snobs. They also did an awesome job of getting everyone involved. People were dancing, singing along, even getting a second or two on the mic. It was like having a private live show at our wedding, which we loved and all of our guests loved. The vibe is much better than other wedding bands we've seen. On top of that they were incredibly easy to work with and accommodating. Brooks never made us feel bad for requesting songs, no matter how random, and they learned anything we asked them to that they had the right instruments for. Overall it was an awesome experience and we could not possibly recommend them enough. If every wedding we go to in the future has Barnstorm as the band, we'll be thrilled.

How do we coordinate our wedding timeline with the band or DJ in New York City?

Communication is key. Your band or DJ should be in sync with your wedding day schedule, hitting the right notes at the right moments.
