Our DJ Kevin was absolutely great for our wedding day. We gave him guidance but wanted him to feel the vibe of the guests and determine what kind of music was keeping people dancing, and he did exactly that! We got lots of compliments on the music and we are so happy we went with Kevin and Mike Staff Productions.

He was very professional, set up and tore down fast. I gave him playlists for everything and he followed them but also added some songs in similar genres and our dance floor was going all night long! We did run into some snags with our timeline and he was so helpful with helping us rearrange some things throughout the night and making things smooth. Would recommend!

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

I cannot express how wonderful Sean was throughout the entire process. From planning to playing a killer show, Walk of Love was arguably the best part of the reception! Sean does it all - sound, lighting, production, DJ, and MC. Not to mention being part of an AMAZING band. The dance floor was packed all night. Sean went above and beyond. I sent him a video I wanted played literally less than four hours prior to the reception and he not only agreed to playing it, but came up with a projector and a screen in such a short notice. From day one working with Sean was amazing. He was super responsive and spent a lot of time working with us to make sure he played a show we would love.

It's been 3 weeks since we got married and we're STILL getting compliments on our DJ Tim! As soon as we had our zoom call with him I knew he'd be a great fit. He was so calm and relaxed and brought our stress level down. We were a little worried because neither of our families are big into dancing and didn't want the DJ to pressure them like we've seen at other weddings. But we had people consistently dancing the ENTIRE night. They all said they had so much fun and that he had an awesome music collection. All of his announcements were spot on and the way he faded out the music for the processional, my walk down the aisle, and special dances were perfect. I chose Craig and his team because their website/team was so unique. It was fun and definitely caught my attention. Their communication throughout the whole process was outstanding! Every text and email they sent was so kind and not pushy at all. I highly recommend them and DJ Tim!

Rich and Avalon The Band played at our daughter's wedding. They were awesome! Rich's communications skills were great, prompt and informative. He lead us through what to expect and gave us insight as this was our first wedding we hosted. They were able to handle sound for the wedding ceremony and it was set up without having to remind or ask, which was appreciated. Rich helped us find a string duo to play during the wedding ceremony too. Rich guided us through the beginning of the reception and helped facilitate the order of speeches and again provided sound for that. The band is great, fun and people danced all night. Rich is kind, honest and works very hard to make sure we had what we wanted. What more can you ask for!

Hi there! I started my music education at 8 years old, starting with private piano lessons that spanned 12 years.. leading to a BA in Vocal Performance from Wayne State University, and study abroad in Rome, Italy. I’ve performed as a Soprano soloist/section leader for numerous churches throughout Metro Detroit, and have had the honor of singing with many great bands. I joined Trilogy Band 10 years ago, and truly fell in love with being a part of couples’ special days. There’s nothing like seeing their faces full of joy, and the energy of a packed dance floor! My Clients’ happiness is my priority.

LOVE LOVE LOVE! We had the absolute pleasure of having Trilogy Band play at our wedding, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with their performance! I cannot say enough wonderful things about this band! From the moment they began to play, they captivated our guests with their incredible energy and musical talent. Their attention to detail was evident in every aspect of their performance, from the seamless transitions between songs to the thoughtful selection of music that perfectly matched the vibe of our celebration. Each member is a powerhouse in their own right, and together, they created a sound that was both polished and dynamic! What truly set them apart was their ability to read the crowd and get everyone on their feet. They crafted an atmosphere of pure joy, ensuring that the dance floor was packed all night long. Our guests were raving about the band, and many commented that they were a highlight of the wedding! If you’re looking for a band that knows how to have fun and keep the party going, look no further. Triology Band exceeded all our expectations and made our special day unforgettable. We can't recommend them highly enough!

Bassist and bandleader Josh Levine got his start in the professional music business busking in SoHo with The Flying Neutrinos in ’93, so when NYC shut down in Spring of 2020, he capitalized on his experience as a street performer and began to play regularly in the parks of NYC with percussionist and sonero, Jainardo Batista, renowned flutist Itai Kriss making his debut on Cuban trés guitar, and María Raquel on vocals and minor percussion. Before long, the quartet had generated some buzz, several venues hired them to play outdoors and pianist Gabriel Chakarji and Grammy winning flutist and vocalist Jeremy Bosch became staples of the group.

Cuarteto Guataca is AMAZING. Every single member of this group is an absolute joy to work with, and their talent is beyond words! Cuarteto was our wedding band, and I don’t think anyone sat down the entire reception! Hire them now!!

I've known Ryan almost as long as I have been in the industry. The services he provides go well above & beyond just being a DJ! He cares about his clients & giving them the experience they are dreaming of. With a wide range of add ons from uplighting to customized song lists you can tailor your experience in partnership with him. In an industry where we see 20-30 new couples a year it means so much to him that you leave feeling like you were cared for but more importantly that you're family. From a vendor perspective Ryan adamantly believes in being part of the team, works swell with video + photo teams (like myself) to ensure we are staying on schedule for the day, but that none of your essential moments are captured!
