From the very beginning, Karl was such a pleasure to work with. Finding a great band for our wedding was our top priority. We were a little apprehensive about pulling the trigger on any band without seeing them live, since videos don’t necessarily do the band justice. We made the decision to go with PopStyle almost entirely because Karl was so responsive and a great communicator. 6 months later, when it came time to iron out details, Karl was consistently professional and put us at ease. Knowing we could trust him to handle everything on his end was invaluable. Obviously we were a bit preoccupied on the day of our wedding, but from what we could tell everything was so smooth. They took care of setting up for our ceremony with a variety of mics and speakers for our officiant, readers, and processional/recessional music. They seamlessly transitioned to the cocktail hour (different location), then introduced our first dance plus family dances, and kicked off the dancing with so much enthusiasm. We absolutely adored their performance. They got everyone out on the dance floor! There were also times when a few of them came out onto the dance floor to really engage the crowd. It was awesome and unexpected. Each band member that I personally interacted with could not have been nicer. They all seemed so genuinely happy to be there celebrating with us. It didn’t feel like a client/vendor dynamic. Additionally, every other vendor we spoke with told us what a pleasure it was to work with PopStyle. Overall, we would 100% book PopStyle again for any event. If you are considering them at all, I would look no further. They exceeded our expectations in every category

We ironed out everything weeks in advance, but even during the reception she checked in with us regularly to make sure we were ready to move on to the next part. She was sweet, accommodating, and super helpful the whole way through. Would definitely recommend her and this company.

Our song list spans a wide range of genres and eras, so you can pick the tunes that mean the most to you.

First of all: during our reception, countless people came up and asked where we had found this band; they were that good!! This band kept our friends and family of all generations on the dancefloor. Tasteful Tea worked with us to add specific instruments that we wanted for our favorite music genres and had a great song list to look at for reference. They knew how to read a room and keep the party going (without cheesy get-on-the-dancefloor songs). So kind and really made our reception the blast that it was!

Guy Michel Music 

5.0

  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Russell, NY for additional fees

I perform on an electric cello that lets me move freely and interact directly with your guests, adding a dynamic and personal touch to the event. With a keen ability to read the room, I adjust the music in real time to create the perfect atmosphere, ensuring an unforgettable experience for you and your guests.

Mr. Michel is definitely a smooth operator. He knows how to work a room well. He knows how to get people to engage, and he knows when to blend into the background. He doesn’t act like a rockstar, even tho he easily could demand that type of attention based on his accomplishments. Simply a pleasure to work with.

Butch Gray, Disc Jockey/Entertainer, LLC 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,200
  • Serves Russell, NY for additional fees

There is an art to entertaining. To create a memorable wedding celebration, you need quality entertainment. Most events I do start with some common elements: guests, music and the client’s desire for the event to be successful. It’s the inspiration in the execution and preparation before the event that distinguishes me from the ordinary. While others may do events by number, I make each event an original, a unique reflection of my client…you! I take inspiration from your dreams and desires. I do not ask you to follow someone else’s format because I will thrive in yours.

Butch was simply phenomenal! He was able to keep our small wedding so high energy it felt like we had a room full of a hundred people! He was so flexible with us as we had so many changes throughout the planning process. He was willing to work with us regardless of what our contract stated, he just wanted us to have the best wedding we could. He was so helpful in planning meetings and his tool was easy and fun for us to use! We asked him last minute to do all the ceremony music and he was even willing to jump in the day of to marry us when we thought we were without an officiant. All of our guests raved about him! We can't say enough about Butch except to HIRE HIM! :)

Cause and The Effects 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Russell, NY for additional fees

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!

Mike was great to work with. We are an older couple, our wedding wasn’t the first for either of us, and we wanted a laid-back party vibe more than a THIS IS A WEDDING vibe and Mike totally got that. It wasn’t really that dance-y of a crowd, but he got people onto the floor and moving. He understood our musical taste and created a playlist that was familiar and engaging without being cliche.
