Cause and The Effects 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $8,500
  • Serves East Durham, NY for additional fees

Based in Staten Island, New York, Cause and The Effects is an enthusiastic band comprised of young musical professionals ready to perform at your wedding. The band was founded in 2011 but the versatile members have been playing together and separately for more than two decades. You can choose between a seven-, eight-, or 10-piece band to perform at your reception, while smaller groups can perform during the ceremony and cocktail hour. Show-stopping music is performed with a variety of instruments such as horns, percussion, saxophones, flute, and piano. They are based in Staten Island but are willing to travel to destination weddings.

If you’re considering a live band for your wedding reception, look no further than Cause and the Effects. We hired the full 10-piece band to play at our wedding reception on 9/23/23, and that was undoubtedly one of the best decisions we made. From our initial calls all the way through the actual event, the band set themselves apart and proved to be far more than a standard event vendor. They were completely invested in giving us the best experience possible. Vin and Anthony took the time to get to know us, our interests, and how we wanted the event to flow, and used all of that information to put together an amazing set. Our reception had a few unique twists, and the band took each of our requests in stride with enthusiasm and professionalism. Leading up to our reception, Vin communicated with some of our other vendors to make sure any intersecting elements (for example, audio/video and lighting) went smoothly. And day-of, the full band’s talent and energy blew us away. Once the party started, it did not stop for a single second. We, the majority of our guests–and eventually, some of the band members & instruments themselves!--were going wild on the dance floor the entire night. Even the non-dancers in the crowd were sitting and enjoying the music with huge smiles on their faces. Throughout the event, many people pulled us aside so they could tell us how much they were loving the music…and in speaking to guests afterward, the first thing every single person mentioned was how incredible the band was. And talk about a personal playlist–not only did they create a completely unique rendition of our first dance song (Starlight by Muse) to match our dance choreography, but they also delivered a huge surprise. In our consultations, we’d mentioned how important the band Linkin Park is to us…so Cause and the Effects learned “In the End” just for us, and delivered a phenomenal performance as one of the closing songs of the night. It was so meaningful, and it’s something we’ll never forget. Please don’t hesitate to make Cause and the Effects one of the first vendors you book for your event. "Five stars" is not a high enough rating!

Actor/singer Elijah Bridges brings elements of bluegrass and rag with his soulful harmonica, acoustic guitar, and voice. Amos Rose is a world traveling multi-instrumentalist who also sings and plays lead Telecaster guitar, and was recently featured by Jazz at Lincoln Center.

Mama Juke was absolutely incredible at our wedding! They played for both our ceremony and cocktail hour, and their music truly set the perfect vibe for each part of the day. We had to make some last-minute adjustments due to rain, and they were so flexible and accommodating, handling everything with ease. From the moment we started working with them, they were easy to communicate with and completely professional. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how amazing they sounded, and they really made the whole day feel extra special. We’re so grateful to Mama Juke for making our wedding unforgettable, and we would highly recommend them!

If you’re thinking about hiring an a cappella group for your event, stop looking. You’ve found it. Seriously. I reached out to Echo several months before my wedding to help plan and ultimately perform a surprise song during my wedding ceremony. Kyle and the entire Echo group were a dream to work with. They were professional, thoughtful, responsive, and so helpful in planning what would ultimately be the highlight of the whole wedding! At a time when planning is stressful, especially planning a surprise for the groom, Echo made the process feel calm, cool, and collected. Thank you, Echo!
