“I selected this DJ because I was on a budget. Other DJs were high ranking in reviews and expensive. I honestly didn't expect my experience to be so good for the price but they had my whole family jumping all night. Hit throwbacks, sound and energy was on point, easy to talk to, great communication.

“We truly cannot say enough amazing things about DJ Hooded Wolf! Our guests raved all night about how it was the best wedding music they’d ever heard, saying it was a “no-skip” set from start to finish. From the beginning, he was such a pleasure to work with. He listened carefully to everything we shared during our prep calls, remembered every detail, and made sure our vision came to life. At the wedding, he struck the perfect balance of being both professional and incredibly fun. His energy was contagious, and he kept the dance floor packed the entire night. You can tell how passionate he is about what he does. The planning app he uses made the process so seamless (one of my favorite parts of planning!). Jake (DJ Hooded Wolf) brings so much excitement and joy to a celebration. We also got to see him at a nightlife gig recently and he was awesome! We only wish we had another reason to hire him again soon!”

“Anthony was a pleasure to work with. We loved his easy going personality. My husband and I hit it off with him immediately. We loved how he let us customize our entire wedding playlist which was so impressive. His portal for uploading music was so easy to use. Anthony was very thorough leading up to the wedding. He was great at communicating. Anthony was able to make a lot of special requests like having my husband sing at the wedding. A few minor things happened at the wedding like the mic did not work, but Anthony was able to work through it. My venue also didn’t let him dim the lights down initially, but he eventually figured out a way to do it, so the dance floor can be lit. All in all, we are so happy we booked All in Entertainment for our wedding.”

“I have always envisioned my wedding day with a violinist playing during the ceremony. Before I walked down the aisle I could hear the violin and the song I envisioned walking down to. Hearing the violin in that moment drew tears to my eyes because it was better than I envisioned it. It was one of the best decisions I made on my wedding day. The violin made our ceremony beautifully emotional, raw, and alive. It added a depth that truly brought a lifelong dream together perfectly. I would highly recommend.”

“I will just start by saying that hiring the Franklin & Alison Music Band was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding on 5/18/24 at the Atrium of Tenafly! We received so many compliments from all the guests for the quality of the live band we had; and to our joy, the dance floor was always brimming with people. We happened upon the band’s website via The Knot’s suggested music provider list and absolutely loved their sample videos, songs, pictures, and testimonials. From the get go, Laraine was a pleasure to work with - always clear, on point with her answers, considerate, personable, and compassionate. We spoke at length via several phone calls and email exchanges about our history as a couple and our music preferences and then we met in person to go over all the details and narrow down the list of our favorite songs, She paid close attention to the pronunciation of names, nailed the parent dance song suggestions and the timing of the different reception activities. Then Laraine, Keith and the band did an amazing job at compiling an extremely successful playlist customized to our wedding. Katrice’s voice is stunning and so versatile, Sam was the perfect host, Keith was just so fun to chat with, and everyone in the band was just phenomenal! We all had a blast and I couldn’t recommend Franklin & Alison Music highly enough! Hands down the best decision ever!”

“Due to being able to save a decent amount of budget money on various other parts of our wedding day, my fiancé (at the time) decided that we should get some live music for our wedding if we could manage. After some careful research, I happened upon the Keith Franklin Jazz Group. After speaking to the band manager Larraine, and explaining our needs, she suggested that instead of the wedding band that they normally send to weddings, we hire the jazz band. Then she invited us to come see the band play at the Witherspoon Grill in Princeton NJ. My fiancé and I loved them and decided that their vibes were exactly what we needed for our wedding reception. Larraine was phenomenal to work with and she was gracious and patient with me despite the fact that I was losing my bridal mind and dropping balls everywhere in the chaos. She suggested that we get the regular 4 piece jazz band and that we add a horn and a second voice (a male vocalist to duet with the female vocalist) to it. She also had their sound engineer come and set up the speakers and microphones. She was absolutely correct in all her suggestions, and the band absolutely made our night. It wasn't overly loud and was in fact very relaxed and romantic, and the vibes were immaculate. People did dance to the music sometimes, but mostly everyone just sat back and enjoyed themselves in the amazing ambiance. They were perfectly suited to our venue choice, and there was absolutely nothing they could have done better. It's definitely not the norm to have a jazz band at your wedding, but trust me, it's a fantastic choice and was by far the best choice for us, and also well within budget. Thank you, Keith and company, for such a wonderful night! If I could remember everyone's names, I would call you out each by name because you were all so wonderful and absolutely made our wedding day the best it could possibly have been!”

When the artistic mastermind meets the Jane of all trades, there's no telling what may they come up with next.

“From the moment we started planning our wedding, Seiko Studios made the process simple and easy to work with. They listened to what we wanted and kept us in the loop every step of the way, which meant so much during all the planning stress. On our wedding day, they absolutely brought the party—the energy was incredible and they played the perfect mix of songs that got everyone on the dance floor. Their pricing was straightforward with no hidden fees, and the quality of their work was wonderful. If you're looking for a DJ, MC and awesome Photo Booth do yourself a favor and book with Seiko Studios!”

“Base Entertainment Group was an excellent choice for our wedding DJ and band. From the start, their communication style was easy, flexible, and attentive. They provided helpful lists to guide us in choosing the perfect music for our special day, and were even able to play customized Portuguese music that was meaningful to us. Our DJ was particularly attentive, making thoughtful recommendations we hadn't considered that ended up being perfect for our wedding. The entire Base Entertainment team contributed to making our day truly memorable. We highly recommend them to any couple looking for a professional, responsive, and talented group to bring their wedding vision to life.”
