“Book All In Entertainment!! Anthony is phenomenal! It's been well over a month since our wedding, and our friends and family are STILL talking about how fun the dance floor was. All because of All In Entertainment! Even our older relatives who couldn't really get up to dance talked about how fun it was to see everyone up on the dance floor having the time of their lives. On the day of the wedding, because we didn't do the bouquet toss and stuff, there was some extra time before dinner. Anthony did a fantastic job figuring out a plan to fill the time and worked with our photographer to make sure the evening went smoothly. He added no stress to our day and truly helped make it magical! I am thrilled that I booked All In Entertainment! And ending the night by joining us on the dance floor and dancing to Bye Bye Bye was a perfect cherry to the night!”

“We are so happy we chose The DJ Boutique to be our wedding day DJ! They **absolutely** nailed it at our wedding! We felt at ease from the first meet and greet with Jamie and impressed he came out to meet us face to face instead of keeping everything virtual. They are super friendly, communicative, and made us feel like we were in great hands. On the big day, the energy they brought was next-level. Our dance floor was packed all night, and the music was spot on!! We gave Jamie 2 spotify playlists of potential wedding music to play and he turned them into the perfect soundtrack for our day. Sooooo many guests told us how much fun they had and asked who our DJ was because they wanted to take note of them for their next event! The DJ Boutique showed attention to detail and joined meetings with our wedding planner and reception coordinator. If you’re looking for a DJ who’ll go above and beyond, this is it.

From a killer rhythm section to a stellar presentation, we promise to make your special day memorable and fun for all ages! Contact us here for more information.

“Choosing Kristin as part of the live band for our wedding reception was one of the best vendor decisions my husband and I made. From the very beginning, Kristin was incredibly kind and easy to work with. She even learned 5 new songs for us! She learned songs for our first dance, father/daughter dance, mother/son dance, and even learned Taylor Swift’s “Love Story” for me, a huge Swiftie! Kristin performed a whole range of songs, from pop to rock to even some oldies that pleased my older relatives! Everyone at our wedding found a song to dance to by the end of the night. Our guests kept coming up to my husband and I just to say how much they loved the band, but notably, Kristin! Needless to say, Kristin absolutely rocked it and created some special moments that my husband and I will never forget! She came out into the crowd to dance and interact with my two young nieces (ages 4 and 2), who, in turn, instantly became part of the show. We cannot recommend Kristin Trotta and her Wedding Band more highly as a live band for your wedding day. They will for sure make your wedding one to remember!”

Ash & Rose is a two person live acoustic cover band that specializes in warm and expressive covers of favorites from yesterday and today. With a catalogue of over 50 love songs to choose from, Ash & Rose is sure to have the perfect soundtrack for your love story.

“Ash & Rose Live Music was an absolute highlight of our wedding day. Their communication throughout the planning process was seamless, warm, and incredibly responsive—they made the whole experience feel personalized and easy. On the day itself, their performance was nothing short of incredible. Dan and I have been friends with Ash & Rose for years, dating back to our college days, which made it even more meaningful to have them bring that part of our relationship alive again. They performed my favorite song from the a cappella group Dan and Ash sang in together during college, and even reworked the ending to celebrate our “7 whole years” together. It was beautiful, personal, and unforgettable. They are not only two of the most talented singers I know, but also two of the kindest and most genuine people. That combination of talent and heart radiated through their performance and into every guest experience. My family and friends are still talking about how amazing, energetic, and joyful they were as a duo. You could see it on everyone’s faces as they rocked the house. (Just take it from me, the bride herself, in these photos.) Having Ash & Rose perform at our wedding was hands down one of the best decisions we made. They will treat you with the same incredible care, kindness, and talent they showed us, and they’ll make your day unforgettable. If you’re looking for wedding singers who can make magic happen, look no further than Ash & Rose Live Music.”

“Having a violinist for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour was one of the best decisions that we made, and Sweet Harmony made it SO easy. They were communicative, professional, and had a platform that made choosing songs and getting organized a breeze. It was affordable as far as wedding add-ons goes and classed up the wedding, our guests were all excited and impressed. Our violinist was incredibly talented and added an incredible flair. We chose a hip hop theme he nailed it (classy but also super fun and energetic). My only regret is that we were so busy that we didn't get to stop and truly appreciate it as much as we should have.

“From our first call with Ben, we knew we would be in good hands for our September 2025 wedding. After briefly discussing the type of music we love, Ben immediately understood our vibe and listed off several other artists he correctly assumed we were fans of. Leading up to the wedding, he was very easy to communicate with, taking time to understand what we were looking for and the different vibes we were hoping to create. We were impressed with just how well-versed he is in different genres of music. On the wedding day, Ben brought that same positive and energetic energy, which made our wedding so special. We trusted him 100% with the party he was creating, and he did not disappoint! We also rented a photo booth from NT Weddings which was, of course, a total hit. (photos attached).
