Fernando at Blanc Noir Event Group was one of the best hiring decisions for our wedding! Our friends and family are still raving to us about what a great time they had. We danced the WHOLE night and the “hora loca” blew everyone’s minds. Fernando also incorporated our song requests seamlessly, ensuring the vibe was right before playing anything. Given that it was a bilingual wedding, he also ensured that both languages were incorporated so everyone felt included and it wasn’t overwhelming on either side. I appreciated that a whole lot. He played a major role in making our wedding the most fun wedding, and was a pleasure to work with, and highly professional.

Johnny Herbert Music

  • Ceremony only
  • Serves Highland Lakes, NJ

A graduate from USC Thornton School of Music in Los Angeles, Johnny has studied and performed classical piano music for over 20 years. Since 2010, Johnny has provided music for more than 300 wedding ceremonies all over the country. With a set list of over 300 songs, Johnny can play and sing standards from Gershwin, Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder, and the Beatles. Adding live music will enhance and enliven your wedding ceremony, party or cocktail hour.

We hired Johnny to play during our Ceremony and for cocktail hour. It was one of the best decisions we made for the day. His music (ukulele and vocals) during the ceremony was absolutely beautiful. He was on the keys for cocktail hour and entertained with some classics and big-band music (e.g. Frank Sinatra). Hearing that my wife was a big Disney fan during our vows, Johnny switched to a Disney playlist halfway through cocktail hour and it was a HIT! The true sign of an top-notch musician is someone who can read the audience and adapt on the fly. Weeks later, our guests still rave about Johnny and tell us we should have hired him to play longer. (We agree!) Johnny was the ultimate professional throughout the entire process, from planning to the day of. He had a meeting with us to go over our music preferences and work through the flow of the ceremony. I HIGHLY recommend Johnny for your special day - you'll be glad you do.

These talented and experienced musicians are aiming to introduce a new conception of music with their large repertoire. The Loveday Band provides lighting and a sound system for the events that they perform at. The band is willing to learn new songs for couples who have their heart set on something specific.

We found this band on YouTube, we were digging there to watch some videos of wedding bands, and we were lucky. I, my fiancé, and some family members, were searching for bands, so we found Loveday Band, everyone loved the video, so we contacted them. Marcel is a great guy, he's the manager, he listened to my vision for my wedding, and after just listening to me, he starts to put pictures in the air illustrating my vision, he is amazing. From planning the timelines throughout the year to the big day, he did everything as we expected. He takes care of everything, he put a pianist and a violinist to receive all my guests at Park Savoy entrance, everyone still sometimes commenting on how beautiful that was, he created such a perfect atmosphere from the beginning. Our ceremony had a professional violinist and a pianist, they made us feel as if we were in a royal castle, and during the cocktail we had his Jazz Trio Band, they were professional musicians and the band as well. The Band had a memorable performance, seeing everyone on the dance floor, and looking that dance floor completely full, was the best answer about this band, I still having compliments for the performance of this band, as they said, I had a party of my dreams, we were lucky to have Loveday band in our wedding, thanks again, Love, Mariah & Jerry

We hope to inspire you to think big, to be different and most of all to be awesome. If you have seen it somewhere at an event, or can dream of something amazing - we can make it happen.

Hiring a DJ for our wedding was something that was difficult for us without seeing them perform. From the day we met Steve at a wedding expo, I knew he was the perfect fit. He sat down with us for quite some time to discuss their process, their capabilities, and their vision. The online portal made it easy for us to find and add songs we wanted played throughout our day. Steve even went as far as remastering a version of a song for my step father and myself to dance to! If I could, I would re-hire SG Productions over AND OVER again!! They truly made our day memorable, held us accountable to our timelines, and kept all of our guests on the dance floor. We are SOOO thankful!! Steve and his team are the best of the best!! HIGHLY recommend!!

  • Serves Highland Lakes, NJ

The Barnstorm is an NYC-based party rock wedding band, best known for their electric and engaging dance party receptions. It's been said they're "not a real wedding band," but rather "an incredibly fun and engaging band that just happens to absolutely rock weddings!" Whether it's today's hits, top 40, hip hop, classic rock, Motown, and all things in between, The Barnstorm can do it all - putting their own spin on everything they do.

Awarded Best of Zola
I looked forward to every Tuesday night when my friends and I would gather at Brother Jimmy’s Murray Hill to watch The Barnstorm and dance until we couldn’t feel our feet. I knew in 2017 that one day I would get married and I wanted to recreate this wonderful feeling that I would get every Tuesday night. WELL, joke’s on me because I got that feeling and more. I do not even have words for the atmosphere that The Barnstorm created on our wedding day. Leading up to that day, Brooks was INCREDIBLY attentive to the hundreds of questions that I bombarded him with on a daily basis. He walked me through pricing, how the first dances would go, what kind of music gets played during dinner – every question came with an immediate follow up and a “how are you doing?” – completely above and beyond what a typical wedding band would provide. And that was before our wedding day even happened! The day of was indescribable. The atmosphere provided by The Barnstorm was absolutely electric and had every single person on the dance floor from 8 pm to 1130 pm. I genuinely feel like our wedding was one of the best concerts I have ever been to. The band is absolutely magnetic. To top it off about one week after our wedding, as we were reliving the day, I get a text message from a friend saying “we booked your wedding band!”. They are THAT freaking good. If you want to have the best night of your entire life PLEASE look no further than The Barnstorm.

Imagine your guests entering your reception to the sounds of violins as they arrive to your venue, then enter your ceremony or cocktail to the sounds of a string or classical ensemble. Let us show you how to start your party off right and give your guests a “sense of arrival".

We had the pleasure of having Phase One perform at our wedding for the ceremony, reception, and after-party, and they absolutely blew us away! From start to finish, they were engaged not only with us but with the entire crowd. Their energy was contagious, and they knew exactly how to read the room, keeping everyone on the dance floor the whole time. The transitions between songs were seamless, and the variety in their set list kept all of our guests—young and old—dancing nonstop. We couldn’t have asked for a better band to set the perfect tone for our big day. Highly recommend Phase One to anyone looking to elevate their event with incredible live music! A special shout out to our Band leader Rich who made the process so easy!

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.

As one of the top New Jersey and New York City wedding DJs, we understand the need to offer our clients quality, club-style entertainment using the latest technology for your wedding day. After all, the success of your wedding reception is overwhelmingly dependent on the quality of your hired entertainment. We have a vast music library to suit every taste and style and only provide the utmost professional and experienced DJs and Emcees.

I used Gemini DJs for my August 2023 wedding, and I truly couldn't be happier with this decision. We worked with Michael, who was an absolute gem from the start. Within 5 minutes of chatting with Michael the first time, I decided to not meet with any other DJs. The process was super smooth, very well organized, and the music the night of the wedding was absolutely perfect. I couldn't believe how easy it was to work with them. I received several compliments from guests on the music for the entire night (from my club-going guests to my professional musician boss). Everything was tasteful, not overbearing from an MC perspective, and listened to everything we asked for, and very reasonably priced. Book Gemini, you won't regret it!

But you can upgrade the DJ package anyway which helps your special day stand out the most. From uplighting to dancing robots. We are LGBTQ+ Friendly

I know its a bit weird for me to leave a comment when this profile has the same name as mine. (I should of added DJs at the end) But I have to say that the hard work to come together to form a group of talented people that can give a client almost everything they want with just 1 group is awesome. The 3 DJs I'm working with right now, hopefully more to come, and the photo video crew we have been working with since last year of course, have really made each other's businesses whole in a way.

Our staff is dedicated to making sure your guests are entertained from start to finish, providing a modern, fun, and stress-free entertainment experience. GBE Events brings ENERGY and FUN to every single event and will help make sure your big day runs smoothly.

Worked with Matt and the GBE team for my wedding in September. We worked closely with Matt (our dj/MC) since the first introductory call and he was so friendly and SO helpful throughout the whole wedding process. We loved that there was a questionnaire to fill out about any detail you can think about for the wedding (a lot of ones we didnt even think about until seeing it on the questionnaire!). After completion of that and about 1-2 months before the wedding we had another video call to review everything and Matt listened so well to our taste. He understood what songs we wanted to be played and what were absolute no's during the wedding. Whatever you wanted - he will listen! Now to the wedding day. We pretty much did not leave that dance floor, only to breath and get a drink here and there because you gotta rest. Voices were lost by the end of the night and that is the best sign there is to a great night. The music was amazing. Vibes were spectacular. Lighting was great. Such a great dance floor and music!!! He also had 2 other guys helping out and they were an incredible team! They bring the energy to the wedding and it was just absolutely amazing. We also did the Photo Booth through them and the quality of those pictures were amazing!!! Also the man running the Photo Booth - he was AMAZING. Sometimes you run out of poses when doing the Photo Booth but this man did not let that happen! He guided you on what pose to hit and it was so helpful. That could be looked at as a small little help but it's such a BIG help. The Photo Booth had a line all night long. We also did the late night snacks (Wendy's) and the guy who set up and manned it was so incredibly nice. He did a great job and kept whatever we wanted off to the side so he was sure we were able to get some ourselves and not miss. It was the perfect touch after hours of drinking to have that snack when leaving.

When my husband and I started our wedding planning journey, we wanted to find a DJ that would be able to play music form both my culture (Haitian) and my husbands (Puerto Rican). During my search, his business popped up on IG. I went through his IG profile and knew he was the one I wanted. I sent his profile to my husband and he sold. What also sold us was all the extra services he had! Everything all in one place. In all I booked the sparklers, smoke machine, 360 Photo Booth, an Emcee, and gobo lights. My first dance, OMG. Guests are sending me videos they took. Being in the experience was one thing. Watching the videos, I couldn’t stop crying at how beautiful it turned out. The smoke machine and sparklers just brought everything together. Everyone RAVED about the 360 booth. And the MUSIC. We didnt stop moving all night.

One thing they love about playing music for weddings is the variety that is required of them. Every gig is different and they all happen on one of the happiest days of the clients' lives!

I cannot say enough good things about Skylark Music. They were one of the best vendors we had at our wedding. Jesse and Justin were professional, prompt, flexible, and amazing performers as well. They listened to all of our ideas and brought our vision to life. They arrived in a monsoon of a rainstorm to set up and never complained. Thankfully we had a pavilion, otherwise, it would not have been possible. I know that multiple guests asked for their information to book them for a future party. They were truly amazing and responsive throughout the entire process. While our wedding day was beautiful, the music that inspired it made it that much better.

Working with Philly Custom DJ was a blast. I wanted to give a special shout out to Adam in particular. He went above an beyond to make our wedding day special. He's incredibly responsive, provided extremely helpful recommendation, and brought so much energy to our actual wedding day. Please do yourself a favor and hire this man!

David was top notch!! He literally saved the day so many times. Not only was he an AMAZING DJ.. (very entertaining, top grade equipment, most professional Dj I’ve ever experienced) he actually stepped up & became wedding coordinator!! By the end of the evening he was family & I would suggest him to anyone & everyone! He has so much class & experience beyond most in the business who have 20 plus years experience. We absolutely couldn’t have done it without you David. Thanks for saving the day! We can’t wait to see what’s to come for this talented guy!! Look no further!! I promise you will find everything you can imagine in David!! And wake up sore the next day!!
