Jim has been so friendly and professional throughout this entire process — he’s made this a really seamless and exciting experience! Our DJ Rick was great at reading the room and adjusting the music from our curated track list to fit the vibe we were going for (we really wanted people to work the dance floor!). Lisa helped run our Photo Booth, and it was such a blast. We just got the pictures back and they’re so fun! They really capture the feeling, which I love.

We could not have been more happy with our choice to use Buckeye Entertainment for our wedding. Our DJ, Jazmyn, was phenomenal and we continuously felt lucky that we were connected with her. Throughout the whole process she listened to what we wanted and helped us shape the music playlist when we were stuck. We felt completely confident throughout that she was going to deliver on the music and she sure did! 3 We also added a photo booth through Buckeye and want to give a special shout out to Sammie who did an amazing job helping and engaging our guests at the photobooth!

BOOK WITH BRAD!!! He was phenomenal. First of all.... he is just a cool dude all around, which means his personality is perfectly suited for throwing a sick wedding party. He is very thorough in his planning. We met with him several times to ensure we understood the vibe, timeline, and special songs. We felt so at ease knowing he had everything under control. When the wedding day rolled around, he absolutely SMASHED it. He MC'ed perfectly and organized the mic situation and the speeches so seamlessly. The dance floor was packed all night. The only time people left was to come to tell us how cool and amazing Brad was... literally. We are still getting compliments. He got through so many songs throughout the night; it was so cool to hear every song we wanted on our list. I honestly couldn't recommend Brad enough - he will not let you down. He will throw an epic party for you, and it will be the best wedding reception of your life - I promise.

She knew all the right questions to ask and accommodated every one of our requests, even learning the song for our first dance. All of the band members were fantastic and so talented. Our guests seemed to really enjoy themselves – many guests commented how impressed the were with the band.

You want your wedding to be a reflection of the thought and effort you've put into it. And you want your personalities, your vibe, and your love story to shine through in every last detail. That's the very reason why I host a creative session where we'll uncover the unique vision you've been dreaming up. And my part in making that dream a reality. We'll talk about expectations, music, and what would make this night a 5-star, raving success for you. Bottom line, I don't just want to be another DJ. And you don't want me to just show up and play America's Top 40.

Loren was totally amazing!! So professional and skilled at his trade. An empty dance floor was my biggest fear, Loren assured us that he would have everyone dancing all night long and he DELIVERED! I also had a few oddball songs on my must plays and he was able to throw them into the mix with no trouble at all. We truly appreciated his communication through the planning process, he made us feel completely comfortable and confident in choosing him!!

The harpist and violinist were absolutely incredible — truly one of the most magical parts of our entire wedding day. My husband and I were completely in awe, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful and cinematic the music was. It felt like something straight out of a movie, especially with the stunning ambiance of our ceremony location. From the very beginning, the process of choosing music through the company’s website was seamless. There were so many amazing song options to pick from, and we were so happy with our final selections. Hearing them come to life — especially on violin and harp — was beyond words. The musicians played so eloquently and gracefully, and their talent was unmatched. The music added a romantic, emotional, and elegant touch that elevated everything to a whole new level. Communication with the company was excellent. They were quick to respond, always friendly and accommodating, and remained professional and patient — even when unexpected weather challenges came up on the day of the wedding. They were flexible, understanding, and worked with us to make sure everything went smoothly. The quality of the performance was truly a 10 out of 10. Guests were completely blown away, and many told us how unforgettable and moving the ceremony music was. The transitions between songs were smooth and perfectly timed. I would 100% recommend this company to any couple looking to add something special to their ceremony. They are incredibly talented, professional, punctual, and just a dream to work with. We’re so grateful to have had them be part of our big day — they helped make it feel absolutely magical.

Louis Pettinelli Entertainment was an absolute dream to work with. I thought that a live band for our wedding would be out of our reach, but LPE was so easy to work with and what an incredible value! Our band, LPE Snapshot was incredible and our ceremony musicians were amazing too! The vocalists were high energy and kept the whole event moving. They were great Emcess and they even added some special non-traditional reception activities for us. They were super flexible and played all the songs we asked for- even some very “niche” tracks we asked for during the ceremony. So many of my guests said the band was their favorite part of the reception. I highly recommend LPE entertainment! (I am also a musician myself so I’m very picky!)
