Her willingness to incorporate our personal song choices into her repertoire was a beautiful and meaningful touch. Her attentiveness and responsiveness in the months leading up to the wedding were truly exceptional. On the big day, she surpassed ALL expectations!! Her performance was nothing short of magical, and our guests can't stop raving about her talent and unique style. She added a level of enchantment that made our special day truly unforgettable.

Awarded Best of Zola
he Hook Club is an amazing band that we wholeheartedly recommend. They performed at my daughter's wedding at the Pleasantdale Chateau on 3/27/22 and everyone loved them. Dan is a pleasure to work with and made sure the wedding went exactly as planned. The band's vocals are incredible - especially Brianna and LiMarco. The sound of the 10 piece band filled the ballroom of 250 people and the volume was appropriately loud without being deafening. So many of my guests asked for the band's contact information - they are that impressive. If I could give them 10 stars I would- they are the best!!!

  • DJ

A 16-year veteran of the NYC club scene. I collaborate closely with couples to create their unique musical experiences for themselves and their guests by delivering a Sophisticated Savoire-Faire of seamlessly blended hits from past decades to what's currently in vogue; citing T-40 Dance, House, IndiePop/Rock, Nu-Disko, Hip Hop, Funk, Soul, Crossover Reggae and Crossover Latin as some of my favorites.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you are thinking of hiring a DJ for your wedding, look no further. Marcus was attentive, courteous, professional, classy, and most of all, executed to perfection. He made sure no detail was left to the last minute through constant communication and knowing exactly what questions to ask through to process putting our minds at ease leading up to the big day (mood preference, ensuring procession songs were long enough, name pronunciation etc…). He covered us from the ceremony all the way through the end of the reception. But even before that, he helped us curate our cocktail hour and dinner playlists, and then completely hit the nail on the head for the reception and dancing - adapting in real time to the crowd across a wide variety of genres. I cannot recommend Marcus enough and thank him for being such an integral part of our big day. Brooke Casey

Lucas was dialed into the needs of our guests, the timings of the evening, and brought everything together seamlessly. If your debating getting a dj, don't. Get a Lucas, you'll thank yourself later.

Aria Melody

5.0

New York, NY
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,800

As homegrown, native NYC-based wedding DJs, we allow the music to speak for itself in a way that is organic and authentic. We keep things simple and straightforward so you can focus on the most important part of it all — marrying your partner, soulmate and best friend. What you won’t get? A stereotypical, cheesy DJ stealing the spotlight and breaking up the music with bad jokes and unnecessary interruptions. You deserve better. Expect a personal and individualized celebration with great music, precise attention to detail and a fun-filled dance party — all based on 15 years of wedding experience.

DJ Joe was amazing! Communication was clear throughout. He did a phenomenal job and we all had a great time! Would highly recommend

Kenny Fiesta

New York, NY
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500

My goal for your event is straightforward: to create a musical atmosphere your guests will enjoy, in a tasteful way to conserve your excellent reputation. I look to do this by curating my family-friendly music library with all genres, removing instances or entire songs with profanity, vulgar descriptions, and offensive lyrics. I want you and your guests to feel comfortable for the entirety of the event, starting with the mood music that represents your style, whether you've chosen every song or have a few key picks you want me to build a playlist around.

To start off Kenny prioritizes you and your guests before anything, so all the questions you have he has an answer. Any doubts we had about the ceremony and reception entrances he help guide us to the right direction. Sometimes with running around planning for your wedding, questions or changes may come up but Kenny was always there and available to help out. Working with Kenny brought relief to our busy schedule as he knew what we wanted from day 1. We love the sound system he brought to our wedding, he can be proud of that set up. We had a blast and our guests as well, we left the night sweating and even my hair in my hand XD (Karla). We look forward to working with Kenny Fiesta in the future!

It’s been almost a month since my wedding and all anyone can talk about (still!!!) is this band! They were fantastic, high energy, talented beyond measure and knew how to play to their audience. I’m so happy I found them. They were reasonable price compared to other bands we looked at also. Our manager, Hannah, was fantastic with coordination and hearing me out on all of my song requests. 12/10 would definitely contract with again!
