We used Dave for our wedding on April 15, 2023. We are so glad we did! He setup sound and music for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception and we did a few add-ons with up-lighting and the cold sparks. Dave review: He was extremely professional and has a perfect voice and presence for a hype DJ. He arrived on time and setup without any issues. We spent a lot of time on the phone discussing the wishes we had and building out the timeline. He made plenty of great recommendations for minor changes to make the night go smoothly. He even had no problems with a last minute change we needed to make when a bridesmaid didn't show up which required a script change. Dave had the dance floor packed all night from 7:30-10:30pm! Up-lighting: so fun! It syncs with the music and colors can change. It added classy effects during dinner and fun energy for dancing. Cold sparks: we didn't add these until a few days before the wedding as a last minute splurge! We wanted them but weren't sure it was worth the cost. We are SO glad we did it! There was a tech that came out to run them and it was so fun to have them go off for our announcement into the reception, our first dance, and other random songs throughout the night. We had so many guests mention how much they liked it! And it helped get people on the dance floor when they could see the sparks go off from outside through the windows.

Spark Notes

  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Sarasota, FL

Music is the language of our souls. Beyond our own personal enjoyment, we've spent time and effort to find like minded performers who are talented, energetic, and above all reliable. Professional and musician are two words that are not often imagined together: we aim a little higher and prefer the term "Full-time Entertainer" ;)

"I had the pleasure of having Alfonso & Gene perform for my wedding ceremony/reception. They absolutely rocked! I had a bit of a snafu when there was no where to plug in their equipment at the ceremony. Their quick thinking saved it. They played some soft acoustic music and sang softly in the background. They selected the perfect songs on the fly. I absolutely loved the song choice of Hallelujah during the ceremony! They are so creative and thoughtful in the way they perform. The mix of Pumped up Kicks with Seminole Wind blew my mind! I cannot thank you both enough. You made my day perfect and I would recommend your services to anyone in need of a rockin' party band. Spark Notes, is the best choice I could have made for great entertainment. Keep on Rockin!"

Then for the reception, he brought the PARTY as the DJ. He was able to really capture the vibe of what we were looking for as well as what the guests wanted to hear. Prior to the wedding, he was very attentive to what we were looking for in terms of song request and do not play lists. He also provided a very large song library of suggestions, as well as songs he knows how to play via Spotify- this made our lives SO much easier and was such a great resource!

We are still on a high from the most fun night of our lives all thanks to BeachNights band, Chris and DJ Connor!!! If you want to have music at your wedding that everyone will be talking about for years to come, book BeachNights for your reception and the DJ combo for your other music needs (ceremony, cocktail hour, afterparty). Booking BeachNights for all our music needs was the best decision we made for our wedding day. BeachNights far exceeded our expectations. Chris is so professional, organized, and easy to work with. They have so much experience in all types of venues; you will be glad you have a band who knows exactly what they need to do to put on a seamless performance. They keep the music process worry-free so you can focus on other aspects of wedding planning. A piece of unsolicited advice if I may, book BeachNights for everything: ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, afterparty. It was so much easier being able to talk to ONE person and coordinate all music through ONE group rather than having 4 music vendors involved in the planning process. They take time to learn about you as a couple, your music wants and needs, likes and dislikes so that every single song is exactly what you want and how you pictured your music on your wedding day. THANK YOU Chris and team for making our wedding dreams come true!

LIAT (singer/songwriter) 

5.0

  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Sarasota, FL

With her earthy acoustics, dark melodies, and rich vocals, singer-songwriter Liat has been captivating live audiences for over fifteen years. After years of performing in the pulsing cities of Philadelphia and New York, Liat moved to Colorado, where she drew inspiration from the folk music of the mountains. Her music evokes her itinerant life and Israeli-American heritage— 90s’ pop-rock meets 60s’ folk with glints of Middle Eastern desert soundscapes. She spins guitar acoustics with her powerhouse vocals for lyrical “dark folk” sounds that linger long after a performance.

My husband and I chose Liat to perform at our wedding and it was the perfect fit to make our reception memorable. My favorite part was Liat playing her guitar and singing as my husband and I shared an intimate first dance on the beach at sunset. Her voice was so beautiful and it made the moment perfect. She was easy to work with and extremely accommodating. She also was able to provide many different kinds of songs for everyone to enjoy. I would definitely recommend using her for your big day- you won’t regret it!

We picked some unique songs for our processional that typically have heavy orchestration involved but Bryan was able to arrange them to sound beautiful on just guitar. The bossa nova they played for our cocktail hour was also incredible, everyone loved it! Such great style and energy all around, we couldn’t have asked for better live music on our special day.

They even accommodated a late addition ask of them to cover the ceremony which as the Bride I had no time for. Couldn't be more pleased, Jakes communication was outstanding and really put my mind at ease knowing I wouldn't have anything surprises to worry about!

  • Serves Sarasota, FL

We’re live music experts, wedding enthusiasts, and party starters, infusing every event with energy and full dance floors. We’re here to make your wedding the greatest party of your life! The Bay Kings Band are a premium, customizable 3 to 14 piece band specializing in high-energy music–at a sensible price. Reach out to get started! Visit our website for upcoming showcase dates where you can see the band perform LIVE before booking. You can also tailor the dream band to suit your style and budget. We also offer Photo & Video services!

Between the professionalism, the communication, down to the loving and outrageously fun atmosphere this band will create for your wedding day, what I came to rave about was their ability to turn a bad situation into a memorable one. So many “audibles” had to be called during my reception as there were coordination mishaps and the timing for just about everything went off the rails beginning with dinner. Not only did Bay Kings Band keep the atmosphere light (to where my guests noticed NOTHING), our MC essentially coached me through the remaining timeline of my reception and turned what felt like a bad trip into the most incredible party I’ve ever been to (humble brag) which just so happened to be my own wedding. THANK YOU BAY KINGS BAND ️ if I could give you a million stars I would!!!

Jade Strings Entertainment 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Sarasota, FL

Cookie-cutter entertainment? No, thanks. You want to design an event that’s completely custom-fit to your story, which requires finding a group that’s equally comfortable playing Canon in D and anything in the Top 40. Cue Jade Strings.Our all-female ensemble of classically-trained musicians knows Bach like the back of our hands, and we can also put together a killer ceremony composition by none other than Beyoncé. When it’s party time, we’ll keep guests engaged with synthesis performances featuring an electric violinist or saxophone player and our secret weapon, DJ Tommy.

I had been following Jade Strings before I even got engaged. When we finally did get engaged and decided to get married in Florida, I knew they would be there. I reached out to Jade before we even booked our venue or had our date chosen. When it came down to choosing our date, I actually based it off of their available dates and am so glad I did. Hannah & Sarah played the harp & violin for our ceremony, electric violin for cocktail hour and the photobooth for our reception. We received so many compliments on how amazing they were and how different. Jade Strings is not your traditional string duo. They are beyond talented but also young, cute, and fun! I mean they played Doses & Mimosas during our cocktail hour on the electric violin!! It was so amazing and I wish I could get married again just to have them there.
