Their unconventional group has mastered the art of creating a great dance party that keeps guests on the dance floor all night and then humming the songs the next day!

Awarded Best of Zola
We booked The Hook Club for all of the music moments for our big day in February 2023. Very easy process - They sent a google sheet with questions and for us to comment on music options, so they could get a good sense for our unique preferences. We loved the process & organization, as it made it really easy to collaborate. There was also an opportunity to add requests for songs outside of those they listed - they ended up performing the majority of our special requests! Extremely talented musicians - they performed unique versions of the songs across a very wide range of genres (from classical to 60s to soul to Latin to EDM…). We started with a solo cellist for the ceremony, the funky trio for the cocktail hour, followed by the DJ Band for the reception. All were fantastic, and each helped set the tone for the different parts of our event. Guests had a blast! They danced all night and kept asking us where we found the band as they said they were the best one they’ve ever heard at a wedding! The musicians interacted with the guests on the dance floor and we could tell they adapted their set based on the likes and energy of the room.

Marcus DJ’d my 50th birthday party and I found him after 2 DJs quit on me. Boy, am I glad they did. He completely understood the assignment - from my musical taste right down to his fabulous blue smoking jacket to match my “festive attire.” Working with him was a pleasure. He was so professional and attentive from minute one to the end of the night.

My fiancé and I were very close to not hiring a DJ for our wedding, until we were recommended Lucas, and now I can't imagine how we could have had our party without him! He was fun, easy to work with, and most importantly played the music we wanted to hear! He curated the vibes perfectly of every segment of our wedding from the ceremony to reception, and we had so many guests tell us he was the best DJ they'd ever experienced at a wedding!

Cheers!

I can’t believe how lucky I got with JB. He really came in asking what I wanted, I told him what I liked and he pulled together the most incredible selection of musicians, playlist of songs and order of service. My husband wanted a few obscure film scores in the ceremony, and JB not only knew them off the top of his head, he arranged them all for strings! I didn’t know what music I wanted for the recessional so I just told him what kind of thing I liked, but that I’d prefer something unknown. He pulled out three amazing options. Literally every wildest dream I had, he delivered. I even played him an old English comic song which I knew my parents would love, and he ROCKED it. I loved working with him, he’s such a professional and music is clearly his life. Showmance were a real highlight of our wedding preparation, the day itself and now of our wedding video and photos. I’m just so delighted that we found him!

We saw the Jon Bates Band perform at our friends' wedding in Vermont a number of years ago. My now-husband and I knew (before we were even engaged!) that we wanted these guys to play our wedding, should we get to that point together. Fortunately, they travel all over and were happy to come to Delaware for our 10/5/2019 wedding. Communication was smooth throughout the entire process, and they were completely open to working with us on our song list and catering to what we really love most. Their rendition of our first dance song was spot-on to what we hoped it would be. They played a consistently strong set all night and had everyone - and I mean everyone! - up and dancing. I can honestly say that it could not have gone better, nor could we have enjoyed it more. I highly recommend this group of talented musicians.

Jesse and Justin have been playing music together since they met performing in a band at Disneyland in 2001. After moving to Beacon, NY around the same time, it made sense to start an official wedding music business to share their love of music with some of the many happy couples getting married in the Hudson Valley. One thing they love about playing music for weddings is the variety that is required of them. Every gig is different and they all happen on one of the happiest days of the clients' lives!

We hired Justin for our wedding at The Garrison on St. Patrick's Day 2019. Amazing! The hiring process was very simple, and Justin was very easy to work with. Justin and his crew were on time, set up in an awesome area, worked well with the wedding coordinator and put on an amazing performance. The guests, children, everyone thoroughly enjoyed the music. The music at our venue sounded exactly how it did on Jesse's website or even better. I would highly recommend Justin for any wedding!

It really set the vibe for the day and everyone genuinely enjoyed the music.

A graduate from USC Thornton School of Music in Los Angeles, Johnny has studied and performed classical piano music for over 20 years. Since 2010, Johnny has provided music for more than 300 wedding ceremonies all over the country. With a set list of over 300 songs, Johnny can play and sing standards from Gershwin, Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder, and the Beatles. Adding live music will enhance and enliven your wedding ceremony, party or cocktail hour.

We gave Johnny a complicated set of requests: perform 3 songs (singing, guitar, ukulele), but perform them with different family and friends we had selected for each song --who could only meet the wedding weekend. We needed him to arrange the songs and coordinate the rehearsals. We knew it was a lot. But Johnny’s modest confidence and professionalism earned him the respect of those we asked to perform with him, meant that the performers loved the rehearsals, and gave us an end result that was so much more than we expected. Johnny is a talented musician and arranger, and a strong leader. We are truly indebted to him for making our somewhat crazy musical vision come to life. We can't recommend him enough.

Awarded Best of Zola
I looked forward to every Tuesday night when my friends and I would gather at Brother Jimmy’s Murray Hill to watch The Barnstorm and dance until we couldn’t feel our feet. I knew in 2017 that one day I would get married and I wanted to recreate this wonderful feeling that I would get every Tuesday night. WELL, joke’s on me because I got that feeling and more. I do not even have words for the atmosphere that The Barnstorm created on our wedding day. Leading up to that day, Brooks was INCREDIBLY attentive to the hundreds of questions that I bombarded him with on a daily basis. He walked me through pricing, how the first dances would go, what kind of music gets played during dinner – every question came with an immediate follow up and a “how are you doing?” – completely above and beyond what a typical wedding band would provide. And that was before our wedding day even happened! The day of was indescribable. The atmosphere provided by The Barnstorm was absolutely electric and had every single person on the dance floor from 8 pm to 1130 pm. I genuinely feel like our wedding was one of the best concerts I have ever been to. The band is absolutely magnetic. To top it off about one week after our wedding, as we were reliving the day, I get a text message from a friend saying “we booked your wedding band!”. They are THAT freaking good. If you want to have the best night of your entire life PLEASE look no further than The Barnstorm.

I cannot recommend FM3 Entertainment enough. Steve and Frank are phenomenal. Our wedding was in Stone Harbor, NJ but our families and friends are from New York to the suburbs of Philadelphia and we needed a company that would keep the party going for everyone from 20-90 years ago, and they did just that! They are an experienced duo that had great recommendations and asked us questions that you may not think of during the planning stages. They listened to all of our song requests as well as, more importantly, our do-not play list. When hiring a DJ you don't always think of how the company you choose will also be the MC or "host" of the night. Steve added special touches throughout his announcements while sticking to the flow of the night AND keeping the party going! The dance floor was packed all night and I continue to receive rave reviews from friends and family on how great the music was at our wedding. I recommend FM3 Entertainment for all your event needs!

Whether it be mainstream or alternative music, there will be dancing (and singing) ensuring your celebration is unforgettable. In addition to providing DJ services & sound equipment, Kevin will provide MC services, making any announcements and introductions throughout your reception.

Kevin DJd our NYC wedding in October. Best choice ever! Aside from, “congratulations,” “tune!” was probably the most shouted word at our wedding. Our entire wedding (pre-ceremony mingling and drinks, ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and dancing) took place in one location - a restaurant. That put a lot of pressure on the music since we needed to set and maintain a tone while tuning the energy for different phases of the evening. Kevin nailed it. From the first meeting, he was creative, collaborative, responsive and kind. We didn’t start with an exact vision for what we wanted, so he helped us refine our “brief” by asking thoughtful questions about us, our guests, etc. He proactively went on two site visits to our venue to meet the events team, understand the space and optimize speaker placement. He requested to come to our rehearsal (in the pouring rain) to ensure he hit certain music cues for our processional. I mean, above and beyond. In the end, he concepted and created the most PERFECT mix, which took us from café music and crooner vibes to yacht rock to the club. He played all our favorites, but it didn’t feel cookie cutter, and he mixed everything in a way that kept people excited and on the dance floor. We loved working with Kevin from start to finish and hope we have another excuse to work with him in the future!

I grew up with family members that DJ'd most of my family's weddings CA. But since I got married in PA they weren't really an option and to be honest I am glad they weren't. Stefan was incredibly professional, detailed, and fun to work with. He was so flexible with all the things we had going on. He helped me immensely to ensure that everything was timed well throughout the day. He was a perfect MC, had amazing sound equipment. And more importantly played DOPE A** music. My husband is a skater at heart and so he loves the classic early 2000 music like Mr. Brightside. So much so that he had a whole list of songs he wanted Stefan to play in a series. And Stefan DELIVERED. the entire crowd was pumped up by the songs and it made the whole night that much more amazing. When I say that DJ Stefan is worth every penny I mean it. EVERY PENNY.

With her earthy acoustics, dark melodies, and rich vocals, singer-songwriter Liat has been captivating live audiences for over fifteen years. After years of performing in the pulsing cities of Philadelphia and New York, Liat moved to Colorado, where she drew inspiration from the folk music of the mountains. Her music evokes her itinerant life and Israeli-American heritage— 90s’ pop-rock meets 60s’ folk with glints of Middle Eastern desert soundscapes. She spins guitar acoustics with her powerhouse vocals for lyrical “dark folk” sounds that linger long after a performance.

My husband and I chose Liat to perform at our wedding and it was the perfect fit to make our reception memorable. My favorite part was Liat playing her guitar and singing as my husband and I shared an intimate first dance on the beach at sunset. Her voice was so beautiful and it made the moment perfect. She was easy to work with and extremely accommodating. She also was able to provide many different kinds of songs for everyone to enjoy. I would definitely recommend using her for your big day- you won’t regret it!

For the past 30 years, Jimmy Dee Entertainment has consistently set the standard in quality, class, experience and fun. Our mission is to inspire and collaborate with our clients to produce unique and engaging events invoking emotion, excitement and energy for the newlyweds as well as their families, friends and guests.

So thankful I went with Jimmy Dee for my wedding. We just don’t have enough good things to say about them! From their App that allowed me to add and remove song options and make specific notes so anything I wanted in a very specific way was easy and clear. After that, our team took creative control and when I tell you my guests did not sit down for even a second!! Dinner was being served and they had to make an announcement for everyone to sit. So glad we went with them and they truly made our wedding the BEST NIGHT EVER!

The Blaire Band was absolutely incredible. Our friends and family are still raving about the band. Blaire worked with us to define the vibe for the night, and she and the whole band nailed it perfectly. Our dance floor was filled the entire night. I still remember the feeling of walking in to their rehearsal before the reception began, and getting chills. They really are that exceptional! We feel so lucky to have had such a wonderful band play at our wedding. I cannot recommend them enough!

If you want to have an amazing dance party at your wedding, book DJ Mariko! She delivered our theme “bangers only” with a creative mix of songs and played a crucial role in giving us our dream wedding. We received so many compliments from our guests, including one who exclaimed “I guess we are going to have to bring DJ Mariko to every party going forward!” She was great to work with from day one - super organized, very professional, prepared for every meeting, and had a great way of getting to know us so she could set the right mood and pace for our wedding. There was never a moment - from the cocktail hour, to the dinner, to the two dance sets, where we weren't delighted with her song choices. She was excellent at reading the room and getting everyone up dancing and kept the energy high all night. She thought of so many little details that made planning easy, and still made a point of checking in with us and the venue night of.

Words can’t express how much we loved working with Ana & Jimmy and the entire Amp DJ Band Hybrid. My husband really wanted a band while I really wanted a DJ, Amp DJ band was the perfect mix. We found Ana & Jimmy immediately and were able to schedule a meeting with them the next day. We knew right away that they were right for us. They were extremely attentive and outgoing from the start. They answered all out of questions and addressed concerns we had. We booked them immediately because we didn’t want to miss out on the opportunity to work with them. We met with them several times through our 6 month planning process. They responded immediately to any questions that popped up along the way and even allowed us to make a last minute change the night before. They well exceeded our musical playlist, taking the songs we requested and tailoring the rest of the music to fit the vibe. There was a perfect mix of live songs and an awesome dj set. The amount of compliments my husband & I received about the band far exceeded anything we expected. All of our guests LOVED them (of course as did we). So many people reached out that night or the next day to say how impressed they were with Ana, Jimmy & the whole band. We also had an acoustic guitar player at our cocktail hour which was amazing. If you’re debating getting a band for your wedding because your heart is set on a DJ, seriously look no further than Amp DJ Band hybrid. You will not be disappointed. I want to have another event just to work with them again!

If you're getting married in or around NYC and nerd out over tunes as much as I do, we might just be a perfect match. I'm all about curating playlists that hit the right note, blending tracks with slick transitions, and keeping mic chatter to the bare minimum. My couples tend to be fellow music nerds who envision a wedding that dances to their own beat, valuing a top-notch musical vibe over traditional clichés. Let's make your big day sound unforgettable with some killer tunes.

Matthew DJ'd our wedding and was simply perfect. Multiple people told us after the wedding that it was the best wedding music they'd ever danced to! He effortlessly turned our personal tastes into a danceable mix for everyone to enjoy. Would highly recommend him for your event.

Packed dance floor, non-stop party, every guest raving after the last song; if this is your vision, say hello to Mod Society!

We have been established in the NY tri-state area as "a band for music lovers" and we proudly cater to clients who appreciate the difference between a good band an unforgettable musical experience.

HIRE MOD SOCIETY! You will not regret it!! From start to finish, everything about working with Mod Society was incredible. Firstly, Claudio is truly such a pleasure to work with- he is extremely responsive, organized, and kind! He made the entire process very easy and I could tell that he was genuinely invested in his clients. Secondly, the talent of the band is truly unbelievable. We had multiple different configurations of the band during our wedding- duo during the ceremony, jazz quartet for cocktail hour, part of the band during dinner, and then the full 9 piece band during the dancing. At every point in the day, they were amazing! The full band played the perfect set list and with such incredible energy that pretty much every guest was on the dance floor jumping up and down and dancing the night away. It was truly the most epic wedding party thanks to Mod Society! We had multiple guests tell us it was the best wedding band they had ever heard and some have already told us they they want to book Mod Society for their own weddings/events! I can't say enough wonderful things about Mod Society and would highly recommend them for any wedding!

Peter & the Master Keys is not only a great jazz band with vocals, it's also an energetic dance band specializing in the best soul, blues, and rock n' roll from the 50s and 60s plus a few more contemporary numbers to round out the set. Think Sinatra and Nat King Cole early in the night and then Ray Charles, Chuck Berry, Elvis and more later on. The idea is to play fun and energetic music that is timeless and can inspire guests of all ages to dance. We also perform as a trio and quartet for smaller occasions or cocktail parties. Packages include ceremony music, MC, jazz cocktail hour, and dance music.

music makes the difference between a normal wedding and an unforgettable wedding. From our first conversation to the last note that the band played, they were truly unforgettable. The first time we talked, Peter told me that his goal was to get everyone dancing, from the youngest to the oldest. All I can say is that all of my nephews spent the entire night on the floor and the grandmother of the bride got up to share a special moment dancing with her grand-daughter. They were nothing short of outstanding, and I can't speak highly enough about them. If you want a group that is talented, easy to work with, and care about their client, then look no further!

Topu Lyo and Randy Bergida began performing together in 1999 when their friends and siblings started getting married.

They have been collaborating in their musical endeavors for 20 years and now they have a diverse, ever-growing repertoire ranging from The Beatles to Fleet Foxes, Elliot Smith to The National, Depeche Mode to Django Reinhardt and everything in between.

As a professional wedding officiant, I am always relieved when I see that NY Ceremony Music will be providing the music for a wedding ceremony. Randy and Topu are brilliant musicians, affable gentlemen, casual, classy, creative, improvisational and just a joy to work with. My ceremonies often include creative elements with musicians, and they are always quick to catch on to what I want to accomplish. I love them. I can't say enough good things about working with them!

enjoy! has been providing live music for all styles of events for close to 20 years along the Jersey Shore. The band has performed over 300 weddings in it's tenure and has carved out a unique niche in providing powerful performances for the live music lover.

We first saw Enjoy! playing a show at one of our favorite local bars the summer before our wedding and after a few songs, we knew they would be our perfect wedding band. Not only are all of the members extremely talented, but they played an awesome combination of songs that we love dearly from artists like Phish, Jimi Hendrix & Talking Heads. Once we met John and the rest of the band, we knew their personalities meshed so well with ours and it was the perfect match. They were extremely easy to work with when we planned out our song list and gave us great recommendations. When it came to the actual wedding day we were blown away! Not only did they do an awesome job on the songs we requested, they added some more that they felt would keep the party going. We still get comments on how awesome our band was to this day. We could not have picked a better group of guys and we highly recommend them to anyone who wants their music to make their wedding! And added bonus: they are great guys - a ton of fun!
