A Berklee College of Music grad, Sam has played countless gigs in rooms big and small and the large song list he plays from covers nearly any type of event looking for a solo acoustic vibe. For wedding ceremonies Sam is the perfect choice for those looking for more of a modern singer/songwriter vibe than the traditional wedding march. His cocktail hour sets are performed with precision and complexity while always maintaining a comfortable volume for guests to enjoy themselves and socialize, something his clients all appreciate.

I can't say enough great things about Sam. He is 100% professional but is so easy going and amenable to changes (which we were making up until the very last minute). He learned songs for us (including French songs - although we only asked him to play the guitar and not sing in a different language!). He was quick to respond, arrived early and even ran through some songs last minute with one of our friends who was singing. And, to top that off we had a quick change of location for the ceremony (was supposed to rain but ended up being sunny) and he didn't even bat an eye when asked to move his equipment to the exterior garden. Sam also did our cocktail hour, his choice of music was spot on and set the perfect ambiance. He has an obvious passion for his music which comes across as soon as he starts playing - it really made our ceremony that much more personal. We cannot thank Sam enough for his hard work and for his beautiful music! I would recommend him to anyone and everyone!

Awarded Best of Zola
I happened to find Grant on here (Zola) and he really lives up to his reviews, as well as his sound! Grant was an excellent addition to our wedding reception, and I heard nothing but rave reviews all night. He really is a one-man band with a big brass sound. I requested 2 specialty songs for the first dance and father/daughter dance, as well as a PA Polka bridal dance tradition, and he really came through. If you are looking for a live musician, I cannot recommend Grant enough. His punctuation on response and arrival, overall sound and professionalism, and quality of service is outstanding. I promise you the only thing you'll be disappointed with is not booking him sooner!

La Bella & The Beat 

5.0

Rollinsford, NH
  • DJ
  • Starts at $6,500
  • Serves Monterey, MA for additional fees

I’m Jay and I'm the owner of La Bella and The Beat. I spend my weekends entertaining, celebrating and partying with some of the best people I’ve ever met. Music has always been a passion of mine--from my boombox days in 1st grade, playing for whoever would listen from my neighborhood driveway, to when my DJing side hustle of 13 years became my full-time career in 2018. I’m a versatile mobile DJ serving New Hampshire, Maine, and Massachusetts (or really anywhere looking for a party). For the past decade, I’ve been rocking events all across New England. No my adventures even take the parties abroad.

There are endless stressors that go into planning and creating the perfect wedding day. Sam And I knew from the second we got off our first discovery call with Jay that he was our guy. Jay from day one helped us make a process that most think to be chaotic, SO MUCH easier. He started the party early during our rehearsal in getting everybody laughing during our practice of the ceremony. Between his technology in using the mobile app to plan all our songs, and the conversations and questions Jay goes out of his way to have in order to make sure he understands exactly what we wanted for our special day. Not to mention the absolute best lighting and sound setup in the business… Jay goes above and beyond and there are not words to describe what a awesome human he is. The team made our day so incredibly special, and even with some last minute (literally) changes to have one of my best friends throw flowers and white claws, he made it happen without question. All the music and the dance floor was full of smiles and happiness from the second we started. I could write a book of how happy we are with Jay, we love him and and hope others can experience the greatness of his work as we did on our big day.

The "Original" Moonlighters ® 

3.7

Washington, DC
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Monterey, MA for additional fees

Since 1990, The Moonlighters ® have been performing throughout the U.S. as one of the country’s best-loved and most authentic Motown and variety dance bands, covering all your Jazz/Blues/Oldies/Motown/Soul/Disco/Funk/Classic Rock/Pop favorites! Just close your eyes and you’ll swear the original artists are performing. But don’t close them for too long or you won’t be able to enjoy their outstanding dance moves and showmanship.

We're quite saddened by their google review, posted even before we had a chance to actually speak with them to clear up several serious inaccuracies. Our band has HUNDREDS of positive online reviews/satisfied wedding clients. And we'll always accept valid criticism. But this one is mostly false and unfair. As Zola does not provide the option for responding to negative reviews, the following are our comments: 1. Since the bride and groom hadn't hired a wedding planner everything was extremely disorganized as we received their timeline just one week prior to the event, but then they changed it twice more, including two days before. Despite asking for our bandleader's phone #, the groom never reached out to discuss any of these details. In other words, we were given minimal direction in regard to all of the last-minute changes. Even on the wedding day itself, our band was asked to set and reset their equipment multiple times because the bride and groom disagreed with the onsite coordinator's floor plan, moving/resetting the bride and groom table as well! 2. According to what the photographer told us, the bride and groom's limo driver was over 90 min. late, shifting the entire timeline and putting them in a bad mood from the very beginning, as noticed by our bandleader at around 5:15pm when he first introduced himself, prior to the band providing either live or recorded music. 3. Regarding the recorded music, it was only lacking for approx. 45 min. as the band discovered the phone battery issue at approx. 7:45pm, during their first break, quickly rectifying the situation by putting the phone on a charger and then continuing with the recorded music outside from approx. 8-10pm. Furthermore, they made up for it by keeping their system running for an extra 30 min., beyond our contracted time of 11pm. And those comments regarding the afterparty are also totally untrue as somebody from the band was manning the system, until a cousin of the bride or groom demanded that he use her playlist instead, and then she responded angrily when he finally turned off the system at 11:30pm. 4. As for the band's sound system, we do acknowledge some 'hum' issues as there was just one electrical outlet provided for the entire band, resulting in 'dirty power' which couldn't be fully corrected. And we deeply regret mispronouncing the various names as most were very unfamiliar and of Indian origin, despite our lining up the wedding party in advance and writing everything down phonetically. 5. Even though some of the client's emails mentioned solo keys during cocktails, we provided a duo, covering an extra 30 min. of recorded music from 4:30-5pm at no extra charge, as requested. While it's standard practice for a band to take a dinner break during an almost six hr. event, this was clearly-specified in our contract as well. And then we performed continuously from 8:30-10pm, including most of the requested songs that we had prepared well in advance. So their comments about seemingly just 'walking off a bus' are completely false and misleading. In other words, our musicians went 'above and beyond' in spite of some very challenging circumstances. 6. Fortunately, we did receive a 'happy reaction' with a crowded dance floor and TONS of compliments from the guests, some requesting pictures w/the band too, while even the bride and groom were singing along and dancing non-stop, which we were VERY happy to see, making their negative review even more surprising though!

5.0

New York, NY

Music makes the wedding! In fact, it's the centerpiece of your wedding - and a great, joyous, dynamic wedding band will make your event truly special and memorable. The Love Revival Orchestra is not your typical Wedding Band. We are able offer boutique-style service because we are a REAL band - with world-class musicians who've played hundreds of gigs together and are great friends!

Awarded Best of Zola
The Love Revival Orchestra was truly an enormous highlight of our wedding day! The band played for our cocktail hour with a talented Jazz Trio, a parade to get our guests into the reception (so cool and lots of kudos from the guests!!), and an outstanding reception performance. There was not one moment that the dance floor was empty and they truly brought the best energy and talent. Music was one of our biggest priorities for the wedding day and our expectations were blown away. David was very collaborative, helping us to plan the perfect set list and answering all of our questions leading up to the day. We were also so appreciative that the band was able to not only learn but perform incredible renditions of our first dance song, and themes from Vanderpump and Star Wars (truly amazing live!). The Love Revival Orchestra is a truly incredibly talented band that played everything from The Beatles to The Cranberries to Taylor Swift and so much more. We are so grateful for everything and have the highest recommendation for Love Revival Orchestra.
