HiMotive Entertainment & Photobooth did a great job keeping our wedding reception fun and upbeat. While their communication was a bit delayed leading up to the event, they were ultimately effective in executing on the day-of. The DJ kept the party going all night with a good song selection, though they did play 3 Taylor Swift songs in a row at the start, which we would have preferred more variety. The MC's ad-libs got a little overbearing at times, but overall they did a nice job sticking to the schedule and making important announcements. We'd recommend HiMotive to other couples looking for an energetic DJ.

The Bluewater Kings Band was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Kevin and the entire band were organized, professional, and incredibly responsive as we planned the music for our big day. They took the time to understand our preferences and created a personalized setlist that kept our dance floor packed all night long, even learning multiple songs so our first dances could be live!

Josh was absolutely phenomenal! He met with us multiple times after booking him, leading up to the wedding. Josh has an immense amount of experience and it was made clear in every way. He knew all the right questions to ask us, and even brought up topics we had not considered. His professionalism is a natural trait, and his organization made the whole process seamless. At the wedding, Josh was fun and kept the party alive, but didn’t go overboard like some dj’s do. His broad range of equipment allowed us to have the night we dreamed of, and his software made it super easy for us to upload the songs we wanted to sing and dance to.

Complete peace of mind We have 25 years of giving couples like you unforgettable weddings. We celebrate YOU!

We always ranked the music as the number one priority for our wedding, and we’re so glad we entrusted David Rothstein Band to bring our party to life. Planning a wedding during Covid had many challenges, including not being able to see the band live, but thankfully, David has so many live videos available where we can see the entertainment his band delivers day in and day out. Those videos, along with David’s passion for his work, made us confident to chose his team to make our day special. For our wedding, we had a classical duo during the ceremony, a pianist during cocktail hour, a jazz trio during dinner, and an incomparable 10 piece orchestra to dance the night away. From the first note to the final encore, we were BLOWN AWAY with the talent and energy that the band brought. We had a few special requests for the night - from a unique arrangement for our ceremony processional to a mashup of New York songs during the reception - and David’s team was beyond accommodating. We had dancing for 3 hours straight and not once did anyone leave the floor - the band was able to feel the energy in the room and chose the right song for the moment. I stumbled across the ingoing setlist after the party and was actually surprised to see that the band didn’t even stick to the songs they had picked - a sign that they adjusted based on what the crowd was loving. It’s been nearly a month since the big day and people keep telling us how amazing the music was, and we can’t stop watching the many videos David took from the night, reliving the magic that his band created. If you’re thinking about which band to have for your wedding, look no further than the David Rothstein Band - you won’t be disappointed!!
