Awarded Best of Zola
“Our experience with DJ Jeremy B was exceptional from start to finish. He went above and beyond throughout the planning process and on our wedding day, and we are so grateful he was part of our wedding. From the beginning, he took the time to get to know us, our style, and our vision. He offered guidance when we needed it without ever making us feel like we had to follow a formula. His knowledge of music and the wedding industry gave us so much confidence throughout the planning process. What really stood out was his willingness to make our ideas work. We had some out-of-the-box, complicated ideas for our processional and recessional, and instead of telling us they couldn't be done, he came to our rehearsal on his own time to practice with us and figure out the best way to execute them. That level of care and effort meant so much to us. When an unexpected bump in the planning process put me behind on some final details, he responded with nothing but patience, grace, and kindness. He gave me the extra time I needed and reassured me that everything would be okay and that he had our backs. As a bride, that peace of mind was invaluable. On the wedding day, he delivered. His setup was clean and aesthetically pleasing, the music was perfect for our crowd, and he kept the dance floor full all night. He was professional, attentive, and completely in tune with the energy of the room. And one small moment perfectly sums up his attention to detail: he noticed I hadn't eaten my dinner and had it wrapped up for me so I could eat it later. He wasn't just there to play music—he was genuinely looking out for us. We could not have asked for a better wedding DJ. His professionalism, expertise, flexibility, and genuine care made a huge difference in our experience. He helped make our wedding day feel seamless, fun, and completely us. I would recommend him without hesitation!”

“We truly could not have asked for a better DJ experience for our wedding! From the very beginning, Alex made the entire planning process feel easy, organized, and completely stress-free. He was always responsive, helpful, and genuinely cared about making our day exactly what we wanted. Then came wedding day — and DJ Bob absolutely crushed it. He kept the energy high all night long and somehow always knew exactly what song to play next. Even during moments when the dance floor slowed down, he kept the vibe fun, upbeat, and entertaining so the party never felt awkward or dull. He also kept everyone laughing and made the whole night feel so natural and enjoyable. What impressed us even more was how professional and smooth everything was behind the scenes. There were a few technical difficulties during the night, and honestly, we never would have known if we hadn’t been told afterward. DJ Bob handled everything so calmly and seamlessly that the energy never dropped for a second. That level of professionalism made such a huge difference and kept the night running perfectly. One of the things we appreciated most was how much stress they took off our shoulders. We were able to relax and fully enjoy our wedding because we knew everything was in good hands. From keeping the timeline flowing smoothly to making sure our guests were having an amazing time, they went above and beyond.”

“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!!”
