What an incredible band! The dance floor was packed all night! At one point during our daughters outdoor wedding, the power needed to be shut down due to lightning. CCO didn't let that stop them as the horn section continued to play and kept the party going. All night long, our guests started every conversation with, "where did you find this band?" They were shocked to find out that they were a Central PA band. Everybody assumed they were from NYC or Philly. Everything was perfect! 10 out of 10

Having AMP Band for our wedding was an A Experience. For our wedding, we used the DJ/Band Entertainment for reception, along with the String Duo Violins for the ceremony. During the pre-wedding planning stage, Ana & Jimmy took the time to get to know us on a personal level and answered all of our questions quickly through emails and zooms. What I loved about the planning stage with them was their ability to incorporate our music suggestions, while also providing feedback on music through their expertise. On the wedding day, they absolutely crushed it!! During our wedding, it was a perfect mix of live and dj entertainment during our reception. They met all of our expectations music-wise and did a phenomenal job of playing music to all generations during the night. We had countless people raving about their performance in the days after their wedding. Can’t recommend them anymore!!!

  • DJ
  • Serves Maywood, NJ

Pure Event Group is dedicated to providing you first-class entertainment. We understand how important your wedding day is and treat it, unlike any other private event. Your wedding deserves to be different, plain, and simple. This is why Pure Event Group does not offer the same old "Cookie-Cutter" DJ packages. From our first phone call, you will have a custom experience with your own custom package based on your vision, venue, and our experience. There are times where less is more. And for those of you who are looking to add enhancements like Sparklers, LED Videowalls, Monograms, and Photobooths, Pure Event Group has you covered.

From my first conversation with Griffon, I loved his ideas, his thoroughness, and especially his enthusiasm! We worked with Griffon asking questions and making changes until literally the day before our wedding. Not only was he able to accommodate to all of our requests, but everything was done so smoothly! Because of COVID restrictions in NJ, we had to keep our dance floor outside of our reception ballroom, and we were worried about the separation, we’d lose some participants on the dance floor. Boy, was I wrong! The transitions between rooms was unnoticeable, and we had the entire group dancing all night long. Highly recommend for anyone who wants a true dance party at their wedding!!

Montes Productions 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,195
  • Serves Maywood, NJ

Hi, my name Is Juan Montes, I knew from a very young age I wanted to be apart of the hospitality/night life industry. As I grew as a DJ in the clubs, bars & restaurants in NJ/NYC so did my musical knowledge and ability to read crowds. I was able to apply what I learned into my company, Montes Pro, and ever since I have never looked back.

Awarded Best of Zola
After booking my venue, Montes Productions was the first vendor I booked. I did a lot of research and phone conferences with other DJs in NJ, all well known, for about weeks before deciding on Montes Productions. I was looking for someone who could go along with a “club” feel, but also incorporate a wide-range of music for my family. All the DJs I spoke to were pretty much the same, however, when I spoke to Juan…we just clicked. Montes Productions was recommended to me on the New Jersey Bridal Group on Facebook. Juan was probably the only vendor who I spoke with for 30 minutes about life and not just my wedding. He was super personable and was willing to work with my budget. I felt like I was speaking to a friend and not someone trying to sell. I booked with Montes Productions two years out, and Juan kept in contact with me for that entire time. He also worked with my husband and I a week before to go over all the small details for our wedding. Juan was very organized and knew his stuff for sure. I had a lot of little components to my wedding, and Juan helped me organize them! Which helped take a load off of my shoulders in the planning process. In addition, I’m very into Kpop and Juan took all my recommendations. I also booked a photobooth under Montes Productions and it was great. We chose the inflatable photo booth which was a big hit. Also, the guys who came with Juan were all wonderful. Montes Productions was fun, professional, and exceptional. The set-up on the wedding day was amazing, Juan even personalized signage to display on the screens that was definitely my aesthetic.. He also MC-ed the entire night and was a big hit with my friends and family. Juan is extremely well-spoken and has the best personality. I don’t know when I’ll ever have a big event like this again, but if I did, I would definitely hire Montes Productions again for a party!

Franklin & Alison Music In business for over 20 years. Not an agency, just one band to provide you with personal attention to detail and tailor the music to your needs and likes. I love to help couples pick out the songs for each wedding, everyone is different and we like to be creative.

I will just start by saying that hiring the Franklin & Alison Music Band was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding on 5/18/24 at the Atrium of Tenafly! We received so many compliments from all the guests for the quality of the live band we had; and to our joy, the dance floor was always brimming with people. We happened upon the band’s website via The Knot’s suggested music provider list and absolutely loved their sample videos, songs, pictures, and testimonials. From the get go, Laraine was a pleasure to work with - always clear, on point with her answers, considerate, personable, and compassionate. We spoke at length via several phone calls and email exchanges about our history as a couple and our music preferences and then we met in person to go over all the details and narrow down the list of our favorite songs, She paid close attention to the pronunciation of names, nailed the parent dance song suggestions and the timing of the different reception activities. Then Laraine, Keith and the band did an amazing job at compiling an extremely successful playlist customized to our wedding. Katrice’s voice is stunning and so versatile, Sam was the perfect host, Keith was just so fun to chat with, and everyone in the band was just phenomenal! We all had a blast and I couldn’t recommend Franklin & Alison Music highly enough! Hands down the best decision ever!

Raven Productions is an entertainment company that provides amazing, entertaining and engaging singers and musicians that have traveled the world and performed with the best recording artists and entertainers and when we hit the stage you see our passion with every performance.

Our 50th wedding anniversary was an event of a lifetime for us. We gathered fifty of the most important people in our lives for a black-tie gathering in New York City. Because friends came from all over the world, it was important to us to create an extraordinary evening for them to enjoy. The setting was magnificent, the food extraordinary and Patrice and the Show perfection. From our first meeting to that wonderful night, there is not one thing they didn't hit out of the park. Communication was prompt and clear and their logistic preparation flawless, which took a great weight off our shoulders. When I called Patrice two weeks before the event and told her I wanted to sing my toast to my husband, she was so encouraging and supportive. I sent a youtube video of the Tina Turner song I was going to sing, we spoke on the phone and that night it went off like we had rehearsed endlessly! If you have a chance to book them, don't hesitate. They are Simply the Best!

We saw the Jon Bates Band perform at our friends' wedding in Vermont a number of years ago. My now-husband and I knew (before we were even engaged!) that we wanted these guys to play our wedding, should we get to that point together. 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. I can honestly say that it could not have gone better, nor could we have enjoyed it more. I highly recommend this group of talented musicians.

Cause and The Effects 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $8,500
  • Serves Maywood, NJ

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!

(We are from California) I wanted to surprise my husband with a Mariachi Band (he loves Mariachi) that offered quality in service and performance. I have a M.M from Kyoto University for Music & Art, and I fully understand what I was looking for in a Mariachi band. I investigated each Mariachi band here in NYC, their quality as musicians, social media, reviews etc. Many mariachi bands stated, "they are the best" or "Number 1 in NEW YORK CITY", but I can assure you all from looking at their YouTube performances & social medias that they are NOT. A few did play back, had a CD recording of an actual PROFESSIONAL band in the background while these so called "Best in NYC" made it seem as if it was them performing, FALSE advertisement. Once I saw Mariachi Hidalgo NYC, directed person with a B.A in Music & History. (Having a degree in any accredited field is one way to ensure the person knows what they are offering.) I investigated everything about this ensemble before contacting. YouTube , Instagram, all their social medias in order to understand whom I was calling. After checking out everything, proper technique on their instruments and vocals, no play back, presentable, quality musicians. I knew this band was going to be AMAZING! From the moment I called to book them until the performance's date this is what I received. A very professional service to not just me but my husband and guests as well. Very detailed in terms of explaining the full booking process, punctual, proper technique on their instruments & voice, an amazing show that interacts with the crowd. This band had it all! Everyone loved it! Visual Aspect:/ Performance Technical playing, clean suits, well groomed, presentable. 100/100 If you are looking for a mediocre or an economical option or a group to just make noise regardless of how they sound. Then I would not recommend this band for your event. If, however, you are looking for a PROFESSIONAL band to make your special moments even more memorial. Then YES, I recommend this band too you, Mariachi Hidalgo NYC! You will not be disappointed. Overall: Quality, Punctual, Presentable, Professional, Show/Performance, Amazing service from start to finish. If we ever visit New York City again, we will definitely contract Mariachi Hidalgo again for all of our events. Best Regards, Kiyoko Nakamura Master's in Music, Kyoto University for Music & Art
