We LOVED the music Matt played at our wedding party. He was seamless is transitioning genres from when the party first started to end of the night. I had SO many friends at the party come up and say they were loving the music. Best part was he didn't play a single one of those classic wedding anthem songs that everyone has heard a million times (which was our worry). He nailed it, couldn't have asked for a better DJ for our special night.

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.

Our Dj, Terrell, did a FANTASTIC job at our wedding. He announced everything well, communicated with our wedding coordinator and the other vendors, played our requested song list, and consistently checked in on my (new!) husband and I throughout the evening to see if there was anything that he could help us with. On our song list, we noted that we didn't want any country music played (unless it was a specifically requested song), and when one of our guests asked him to play 'Cotton Eye Joe', Terrell even came up to me and asked me if it was okay because he wasn't sure if I considered that country music! Overall, we are VERY happy with terrell! My husband and I would definitely recommend to other couples who are planning a wedding!

When it comes to weddings, there's only one chance to get it right! It's why I care so much about each wedding and that I treat each one as if it were my own! THAT is the kind of passion I give each and every one of my couples to not only ensure the vision for their day comes to reality but that their ONLY 'responsibility' on their wedding day is to celebrate with their family and friends! Quite frankly, I LOVE weddings and I consider it an honor to be part of their day & assisting them in creating lifelong memories (not to mention the amount of trust that my couples place upon me).

Jack did an AMAZING job at our wedding. He is professional and incredibly helpful. His vast knowledge of the music industry and his outgoing personality was exactly what we were looking for. Jack listened to what we wanted and came up with an incredible playlist for the evening. His charisma and passion for what he does is so undoubtedly noticeable. We had so many compliments from guest about Jack; I would recommend him to everyone. There is nobody better! He also DJ my sister's wedding several years ago. Just as great now as he was then!

Overall music selection and sound was great, maybe a little too loud a some points but that may also be due to speaker placement. There was an issue with the DJ going to the wrong site initially. Our venue had 3 ceremony/reception sites, and he set up across the street at one of the other sites. This caused a delay in set up, but our coordinator and site manger were able to help him. I don’t think he verified with anyone when he arrived that he was at the correct wedding before setting up. Ceremony music sound was great. Microphones were provided which was great so everyone could hear us and our officiant

Erica reached out to me and I'm so glad she did! My least favorite part of most weddings is the cocktail hour and I didn't want that to be true of our wedding! Erica made sure it wasn't! She played a song during our ceremony, for the cocktail hour, and finally our first dance. We had so many friends and family ask who she was and said they really enjoyed having the live music to enjoy during cocktail hour. The live song for our first dance made it feel that much more special and tailored just for our big moment! She also was more than willing to fly all the way to MO from FL!

Working with Emily and Arch City Lights as a whole was truly a breeze. They allowed you to customize your experience with them as much as you need. Emily does a great job at keeping the timeline for planning etc. and initiating communication along the way. We had Arch City Lights set up sound for our Ceremony for which they did not play. Everything sounded great, was a very modern and minimal setup (they use computers for mixing etc. so it is not overly bulky). The quality was incredible and there were no squeals or sound problems. They were able to set this up very quickly and efficiently and the staff were calm, very friendly, and followed all venue rules etc. - only asking questions when extremely necessary. We also had Arch City Lights perform as a Jazz Trio for our Cocktail Hour. This was while the wedding party was taking photos, so I am very happy that we got a video. They were very engaging, extremely talented, and you could tell they had a great time playing. It really set the perfect mood for the cocktail hour. Emily was the Emcee for the entire wedding. Her "stage presence", calmness, and ability to roll with the punches made her the perfect candidate for this job and she worked hard to make sure she pronounced every name perfectly (which she did - even Metivier (haha)). She has a great voice and really added the narrator and vibe that we needed. She followed all cues and social prompts on her own and really took charge of the whole process - making everything go very smoothly and perfectly accompanying all of the wedding pieces with pre-chosen music that we determined together. They DJ all of the songs you want and make it very simple. Lastly, Arch City lights played us into the night and was truly the life of the party. They adapted their original schedule from 3 sets with 2 breaks to 2 longer sets with less breaks (I am assuming to keep the party going - thanks), and this show will be talked about for years to come. Every single attendee made sure to comment on Emily and the others' "pipes," and skills on their corresponding instruments. They did an amazing job playing songs that we asked for and keeping the party rocking. They had a full band with Horns etc. and everything about them was perfect and professional. If I had some constructive criticism to give, I really would, but Emily and Arch City Lights went above and beyond in so many ways to make this an unforgettable night. I would not have changed a thing.

From the moment they began to play, they captivated our guests with their incredible energy and musical talent. Their attention to detail was evident in every aspect of their performance, from the seamless transitions between songs to the thoughtful selection of music that perfectly matched the vibe of our celebration. Each member is a powerhouse in their own right, and together, they created a sound that was both polished and dynamic! What truly set them apart was their ability to read the crowd and get everyone on their feet. They crafted an atmosphere of pure joy, ensuring that the dance floor was packed all night long. Our guests were raving about the band, and many commented that they were a highlight of the wedding! If you’re looking for a band that knows how to have fun and keep the party going, look no further. Triology Band exceeded all our expectations and made our special day unforgettable. We can't recommend them highly enough! Special thanks to Band Leader/vocalist, Kylee who was a delight to work with and ensured we were taken care of every step of the way! XOXO
