Jay made the process seamless from start to finish. There are so many stress related things that come with planning a wedding but choosing Jay and On the Beat Fx was by far our best decision. There was not one thing throughout the planning process that wasn't easy - The online payment portal made things extremal convenient, his meetings were informative & fun, & the app is so easy to work with! He made sure that both times we met with him he left us with plenty of time to choose our songs and we left those meetings with such excitement for our big day because of his awesome and positive demeanor! He walked us through each and every step, helped us choose songs that made sense for us and our day, and his ideas and suggestions were perfect! Jay demonstrates clear experience and expertise when it comes to doing weddings. On the actual day of our wedding everything was so well put together, we were amazed! Our guests loved him and his team and he even went above and beyond by creating a customized background for our photobooth and hyped up the crowd to made sure we had even more fun! Mike and I are forever grateful for Jay and On The Beat Fx , we not only recommend them to anyone looking for a DJ for a special event BUT we will also use them for anything special event in the future!

Awarded Best of Zola
We can’t speak highly enough of Dan. The last thing we wanted was a cookie-cutter DJ for our small and intimate wedding and Dan was able to deliver. I was slightly concerned about the unusual set-up of our venue (dance floor on one side of the building and dining area/bar on the other) but Dan visited the site with us beforehand to coordinate with the General Manager about how best to set up for the event. Dan was able to accommodate our drastically different tastes in music without making the playlist seem schizophrenic. We provided him with an abbreviated list of “must plays” and we were immensely pleased with how he filled in the blanks. We knew things were going great when one of our guests gushed early on that this was the best dance music she had ever heard a DJ play at a wedding. This proved to be a popular refrain, as many of our friends and family complemented us on our excellent choice of DJ. With a healthy mix of Motown, pop and contemporary hits, Dan was able to please all of our guests. What impressed us the most was the fact that the dance floor was never empty, which is remarkable given the fact that we had a relatively small wedding. We’re so glad that we chose Dan and NyWeddingDJ.net as our DJ.

Based in New York City, The Hook Club is one of the tri-state area's most exciting and unique wedding bands. Owned and operated by a tight-knit community of musicians, they are known for their attention to every musical detail and the professionalism they bring to every event. Their unconventional group has mastered the art of creating a great dance party that keeps guests on the dance floor all night and then humming the songs the next day!

Awarded Best of Zola
DO NOT HESITATE to book The Hook Club! Words cannot express how incredible their performance was... you had to be there. We had many musicians in the crowd who were blown away with the talent on the stage. Not only did they display excellent musicianship, but their energy was unparalleled. They got the crowd on their feet over and over again, myself and my blisters included. The main singers came out into the dance floor during the bangers, which our guests loved. Each singer had a repertoire that perfectly suited their talents, and we loved how they exploited that. It was really fun to see them indulging in off-the-charts vocalizing. (And also rapping that had me shook!) We truly felt like they were having as great a time as we were. Jesse served as an excellent MC, introducing our toasts in a humorous and timely manner. Our communication was great, including on the spot decisions (we asked for an extra 15 minute break during dinner, because when they were playing, no one could stop dancing!). Jesse was calm, professional, and light-hearted. I was very impressed by how he carried himself. The planning process we used was thorough and simple, including only two zoom meetings. The Hook Club has tons of songs to choose from, and can probably learn anything you throw their way. Another huge bonus of The Hook Club is that they have so many members, so they can cobble a group together that best suits your desires. Again, I cannot recommend this group highly enough. I feel like they truly made the night, and we are indebted to them! Many guests said it was the most fun they've ever had at a wedding! Hiring this group might have been our best investment of the night. Props and endless thanks to everyone who tried so hard for us.

Where do I begin! From the moment we first met with Marcus, we knew he was the DJ for us. He is so charismatic and easy to talk to. He respected our vision and gave helpful suggestions when we didn’t quite know how we wanted things to go (how does anyone know what they’re doing when planning their first wedding?!). The music was flawlessly executed from guest arrival to the final song of the reception. I can’t tell you how many people commented on the music! The dance floor was packed all night long, so much so that we had late night dessert and I think much of it went uneaten because everyone was having too much fun to leave the dance floor lol. We had a few “unique” moments of our wedding and Marcus not only supported our crazy ideas but implemented them perfectly. Thank you Marcus for making our best day ever unforgettable!

Wow - let's start with that. We weren't sure if we wanted a band or a DJ for our wedding. We love music, so a live band was appealing but we also wanted the flexibility of song choice that DJs typically give you. Why not get both? Paul, Sebastian, and the Golden Bell team are insanely good at what they do. 100% flexibility in the planning process, discerning advice when you need it most, and incredibly talented musicians meant that we got a dance party we envisioned. Paul even made Beach Boys, Caamp, and James Taylor mashups for our first dances with each other, mother, and father!!! Who does that? We can't thank the Golden Bell team enough for making our reception an absolute blast. Book Golden Bell and never look back!

Awarded Best of Zola
I had a non traditional wedding of sorts, no wedding march, and a bunch of moody disco vibes during cocktail hour. I sent Zach one of my favorite Spotify playlists and he created the vibe I was looking for. Initially I didn’t have a song picked out for my processional, he was able to help me pick something that matched the overall feel of the event, laid back, intimate, and funky. With my permission, he even branched out to other genres during the reception and I was having so much fun dancing I didn’t sit down the entire night. My guests had a blast, and he was a pleasure to work with. Zach was responsive to all of our email communication, timely and professional at the event, he didn’t need any assistance setting himself up, and he also worked to mic up some guests for speeches. Overall I could not have asked for a better DJ, he really made the night special

Jesse and Justin have been playing music together since they met performing in a band at Disneyland in 2001. After moving to Beacon, NY around the same time, it made sense to start an official wedding music business to share their love of music with some of the many happy couples getting married in the Hudson Valley. One thing they love about playing music for weddings is the variety that is required of them. Every gig is different and they all happen on one of the happiest days of the clients' lives!

Justin was everything we wanted from our wedding DJ. He understood our needs (which were on the more low-key side of your typical wedding vibe) better than we did, and he got compliments from our guests both for his live music duo during cocktail hour and his DJing during the reception.

Scott and his team from the Music Boutique were absolutely amazing in everyway possible (total package of amazing people, professionals, and just so talented) . If you like, read no further and just hire them (seriously!!)! If you are like me and need to hear a personal experience for convincing; here goes: being a postponed 2020 covid bride who changed location within 3 months - working with Scott and his team was seamless . From my first email to the Music Boutique, Scott (the owner) responded within 24 hours with everything I had inquired about. We emailed several times since then with what I thought were annoying or silly questions, but he answered everything in full detail and even spoke on the phone with me several times. Going above and beyond, he even went as far as telling me about how the ceremony usually goes and what others have done (as I was pretty confused). He was able to play every random song I requested. He played piano along with a violinist for my ceremony, and had a awesome saxophone player, Geoff for part of my reception. Geoff was able to also play some pretty random songs (hooks to old school rap) along with my DJ (DJ Joey G from Jade Productions who was also great). Overall - I could not recommend Scott and his team more. Hope this helps you pick them!

I don't have enough good things to say about Big Ric. He is so good that we hired him right on the spot at my son's wedding a year and a half before my daughter's wedding. And both weddings were completly different so he can customize! Not only is he so nice and so much fun but he is amazing at what he does. He kept the entire wedding dancing all night and our guests kept raving about him days later. Ric was an absolute pleasure to work with and both my son and his wife and my daughter and her husband loved working with him.

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.

Aria melody assigned DJ Jaime to our wedding. Let’s just say, our dance floor was PACKED the entire night. We had two logistics calls leading up to our event so that Jaime made sure that he had all the details he needed to made our event flawless, which he did. Jaime listened to our preferences and curated a playlist that had our guests so exhausted from dancing that half of them didn’t make it to the after party!

I looked forward to every Tuesday night when my friends and I would gather at Brother Jimmy’s Murray Hill to watch The Barnstorm and dance until we couldn’t feel our feet. I knew in 2017 that one day I would get married and I wanted to recreate this wonderful feeling that I would get every Tuesday night. WELL, joke’s on me because I got that feeling and more. I do not even have words for the atmosphere that The Barnstorm created on our wedding day. Leading up to that day, Brooks was INCREDIBLY attentive to the hundreds of questions that I bombarded him with on a daily basis. He walked me through pricing, how the first dances would go, what kind of music gets played during dinner – every question came with an immediate follow up and a “how are you doing?” – completely above and beyond what a typical wedding band would provide. And that was before our wedding day even happened! The day of was indescribable. The atmosphere provided by The Barnstorm was absolutely electric and had every single person on the dance floor from 8 pm to 1130 pm. I genuinely feel like our wedding was one of the best concerts I have ever been to. The band is absolutely magnetic. To top it off about one week after our wedding, as we were reliving the day, I get a text message from a friend saying “we booked your wedding band!”. They are THAT freaking good. If you want to have the best night of your entire life PLEASE look no further than The Barnstorm.

With a DJ style thats both engaging & appropriate at all times, he understands not only what to play, but how and when to play it most effectively. Whether it be mainstream or alternative music, there will be dancing (and singing) ensuring your celebration is unforgettable. In addition to providing DJ services & sound equipment, Kevin will provide MC services, making any announcements and introductions throughout your reception.

Kevin DJd our NYC wedding in October. Best choice ever! Aside from, “congratulations,” “tune!” was probably the most shouted word at our wedding. Our entire wedding (pre-ceremony mingling and drinks, ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and dancing) took place in one location - a restaurant. That put a lot of pressure on the music since we needed to set and maintain a tone while tuning the energy for different phases of the evening. Kevin nailed it. From the first meeting, he was creative, collaborative, responsive and kind. We didn’t start with an exact vision for what we wanted, so he helped us refine our “brief” by asking thoughtful questions about us, our guests, etc. He proactively went on two site visits to our venue to meet the events team, understand the space and optimize speaker placement. He requested to come to our rehearsal (in the pouring rain) to ensure he hit certain music cues for our processional. I mean, above and beyond. In the end, he concepted and created the most PERFECT mix, which took us from café music and crooner vibes to yacht rock to the club. He played all our favorites, but it didn’t feel cookie cutter, and he mixed everything in a way that kept people excited and on the dance floor. We loved working with Kevin from start to finish and hope we have another excuse to work with him in the future!

Garrett & Tamara are a New York-based musical duo and songwriting team. The couple's journey began in 2015 after matching on the popular dating app, Tinder. The two quickly bonded over their love of music and began writing and performing together. On stage, they weave together a uniquely vibrant fusion of classic r&b/soul and contemporary singer/songwriter, rich with two part vocal harmonies and lush guitar arrangements.

Garrett and Tamara were perfect in every way for our ceremony and cocktail hour. They are so incredibly talented and our guests kept raving to us about how amazing they were. My husband and I spent the majority of our cocktail hour standing right next to them because they were so good! Not to mention that they are both warm, funny, kind, and just complete joys to hang out with. The pre-wedding communication with them was easy and professional. I can’t recommend them enough!

Matty was a pleasure to work with; he was professional and accommodating. Before our wedding, he was easy to contact and plan with. During our planning meeting, he listened to everything we had to say, noting the songs we wanted to hear and what our "vibe" was. My wife is a professional musician, so music is important to her, and Matty understood that. On the day of the wedding, Matty nailed it with the music. He played exactly what we requested when requested, and added his own mix that blended in perfectly with our vibe. He also made sure to check in with us multiple times, ensuring we were happy with the music and asking if we needed anything else. We received multiple compliments from our guests about him.

Kelton was wonderful to work with from start to finish. He stuck with us even when we had to postpone our wedding for two years due to the pandemic, so we really appreciated his commitment to working with us. Kelton has a great system for figuring out your taste, priorities, and run of show. He set up very quickly at our venue, which was key given we were running on a tight schedule, and he managed to produce nice sound in a very cavernous space (no idea how!). He kept us running on time and made all transitions seamless. His music perfectly matched the vibe we wanted, starting with a relaxed cocktail hour and dinner, and gradually increasing the tempo into a full-scale dance party as the night went on. And our friends and family had an absolute blast! He had everyone from 20 somethings to family in their 60s and 70s dancing until the very end! We got so many positive messages the next day, including one person who described our DJ as being "on fleek."

I grew up with family members that DJ'd most of my family's weddings CA. But since I got married in PA they weren't really an option and to be honest I am glad they weren't. Stefan was incredibly professional, detailed, and fun to work with. He was so flexible with all the things we had going on. He helped me immensely to ensure that everything was timed well throughout the day. He was a perfect MC, had amazing sound equipment. And more importantly played DOPE A** music. My husband is a skater at heart and so he loves the classic early 2000 music like Mr. Brightside. So much so that he had a whole list of songs he wanted Stefan to play in a series. And Stefan DELIVERED. the entire crowd was pumped up by the songs and it made the whole night that much more amazing. When I say that DJ Stefan is worth every penny I mean it. EVERY PENNY. You will not be disappointed and neither would your guests. Worry free, awesome music, that's where it is at. Thank you Stefan!!!!!!

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 found Ana & Jimmy immediately and were able to schedule a meeting with them the next day. We knew right away that they were right for us. They were extremely attentive and outgoing from the start. They answered all out of questions and addressed concerns we had. We booked them immediately because we didn’t want to miss out on the opportunity to work with them. We met with them several times through our 6 month planning process. They responded immediately to any questions that popped up along the way and even allowed us to make a last minute change the night before. They well exceeded our musical playlist, taking the songs we requested and tailoring the rest of the music to fit the vibe. There was a perfect mix of live songs and an awesome dj set. The amount of compliments my husband & I received about the band far exceeded anything we expected. All of our guests LOVED them (of course as did we). So many people reached out that night or the next day to say how impressed they were with Ana, Jimmy & the whole band. We also had an acoustic guitar player at our cocktail hour which was amazing.

My love of music started in the back seat of my dads car as he took me to daycare, with Marvin Gaye's "What's Goin On" on repeat. My love of music spans generations, cultures and genres, and has taken me all over the world, from England, Spain, St. Marteen, and Austria. My hope is that you allow me to curate a musical experience that will leave your guest talking about your wedding for years to come. As for me, I am a Brooklyn native, who during the pandemic was able leave corporate career to pursue my passion of music. My perspective, is to include and create, safe spaces for guests to feel young, and carefree - even if for a few moments.

Best decision we made regarding our wedding was booking Gregory. His energy, enthusiasm, and passion for curating the perfect music set for us was evident from the very start. He really cared to get to know us, our culture, and our musical styles—which was a very wide range! He really mixes all genres effortlessly. Like he’s truly an incredible artist. In addition to his musical talent, what’s most admirable is his love for music and passion for how music should make people feel. He put a smile on everyone’s face by interacting with the crowd and showing our guests new dance moves! Even though our wedding was 30 people the energy he created made it feel like a HUGE PARTY. Our other vendors even stayed beyond their contractual times because they loved the DJ and we’re having so much fun they didn’t want to leave just yet! Gregory is still the talk of our wedding, weeks later, guests have texted us randomly just to say how great the DJ was at our wedding.

Succasunna, NJ
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $250
  • Serves Astoria, NY

A stable and fun act that has been serving the New Jersey/NY market for over 20 years. Very dependable, very responsive and helpful when asked for assistance or suggestions. We encourage our clients to come out and hear us live to decide for themselves. Much better than viewing a video and trusting it was all done live in one take.

They were so amazing, responsible and attentive. My husband and I told them all we cared about was that it was one big party and they made sure to make that happen. They knew exactly what songs needed to be played at the right time and kept everyone on their feet all night. I can’t tell you how many people specifically complemented them specifically! Best recommendation I could make!

You've found THE ONE! Now You've found THE BAND! Boston Common Band + DJ ensembles are the most awarded entertainment group in all of New England over the past 10 years.

Our Band+DJ Packages are scalable from 3pc to 10pc and flex to meet your style and preferences!

If I could give these guys a million stars, I would! As a fellow wedding vendor, I do a happy dance when I see that we're working together because I know I'm not going to have any trouble getting some killer dancing shots! On a technical side of things, they are super accommodating for my needs (I do video and they allow me to get a clean audio feed out from their soundboard with no hesitation) and they always sound great! If you're hoping to get grandma up & dancing before the salad course comes out, this is your band. Their dedication to keeping the party alive all night is unlike any other band I've worked with, as they bring along their own DJ to cover when they are taking a much-needed break. They are worth every penny, and your guests will be talking about your wedding band for years to come if you bring them on to your wedding team!
