Book Luv’D Up!! Making sure the tunes were bumping all night was a huge priority for us! Gemma and her team did an amazing job nailing our vibe - seamlessly incorporating our wide range of music taste & absolutely kept everyone (of all ages) on the dance floor! Our guests wouldn’t stop telling us how much fun they had. Gemma was also so great to work with leading up to our day - organized and fun!

We had a great experience hiring Seductionz Soundz for our PA wedding. Kevin was very responsive and professional right away to our requests which is why we chose him. The preparation was easy and straightforward via email and phone. The day of the event, everything went perfectly. We were particularly happy with some of Kevin's suggestions such as the table dash photos (which are so great to have) and all the guests rushing up to us on the dance floor, which was really fun and made for great photos. Our guests said the MC and crowd work from Kevin was something they'd never seen before and really enjoyed. He was so great at getting the energy up on the dance floor and keeping it that way all night. I highly recommend him!

I've seen Grant play at various venues and can't recommend him highly enough! He's incredibly professional and thorough, tailoring his set and performance to the tone of the event and blending in seamlessly. He has a beautiful singing voice and creates a really impressive one man band effect using his looping setup to layer in all parts of the song live in front of you. It's pretty incredible to see how he builds the song real-time without any backing tracks or pre-recorded stuff. I would feel confident hiring him for anything from a small cocktail party to a full wedding reception. Grant is the best!

The Hook Club 
Rating: 5.0 (118 reviews)
New York, NY
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $3,500

Based in New York City, The Hook Club is one of the tri-state area's most exciting and unique wedding bands. Owned and operated by a tight-knit community of musicians, they are known for their attention to every musical detail and the professionalism they bring to every event. 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
The Hook Club made our wedding dreams come true. My husband is Dominican and I am from New England, and therefore we were looking for a bilingual band that could play a very wide range of music - from American wedding classics, to Pop, to Reggaeton, to Merengue, to Bachata — and a group that could MC the evening in Spanish and English, and bring the energy to keep the party going.  We went with Hook Club’s 7 piece DJ Band, and they were above and beyond fantastic. They curated a setlist that somehow, despite the wide range of music, flowed together and was cohesive. I can’t express enough how talented they are vocally, instrumentally, professionally, and as performers. The dance floor was absolutely lit; even my brother who was on crutches and had a torn labrum couldn’t stay away. It makes me tear up thinking about how much energy, positivity, and happiness they brought to our night — they will always have a special place in our hearts. They are also true professionals - the planning process was easy, they were prompt in all communication, and on the day of they handled venue-related hiccups with grace. They were the first vendor to arrive to ensure a thorough set up, and the last to leave.  They are truly such a special, one of a kind group, and I cannot recommend them enough. Of all the many decisions we made in planning our wedding, choosing THC was by far the best decision of them all. Although our wedding was back in August; our friends and family are still talking about The Hook Club, exlusively referring to them as “ the best wedding band they have ever heard before”. We had a fairly diverse crowd in terms of age, background, taste in music and their ability to please that wide range of people is a testament to their talent. THANK YOU TO THE HOOK CLUB !!!

A 16-year veteran of the NYC club scene. I collaborate closely with couples to create their unique musical experiences for themselves and their guests by delivering a Sophisticated Savoire-Faire of seamlessly blended hits from past decades to what's currently in vogue; citing T-40 Dance, House, IndiePop/Rock, Nu-Disko, Hip Hop, Funk, Soul, Disco, Latin and Reggae as some of my favorites.

Awarded Best of Zola
The short version of this review: if you want the music at your wedding to be awesome and exactly what YOU love to hear, and without cheesey emcee vibes, hire Marcus! Marcus did such an amazing job DJing our wedding, we couldn’t be more thrilled. He is extremely thoughtful with his work. He took careful note of my husband and my musical tastes and preferences, as well as the vibe of our wedding, instead of playing a standard tired playlist. Per our request, he blended in some Latin music seamlessly. The dance floor was full and lively all night long, exactly as we had hoped for! He played songs we hadn’t requested but that we love, leaving me wondering how he could have known so well what to play. He also respected our “do not play” list, as I found out multiple guests requested songs on it and he politely declined. Marcus is very thorough and organized which made working with him so easy- he was on top of all the details, order of events/cues, even reviewed proper name pronunciation with us in advance. The event manager at our venue said she loved working with him and was very impressed. Marcus has such a kind and warm personality, and a really special talent- we feel so lucky that he was part of our big day!

Awarded Best of Zola
When my husband and I were searching for DJ's for our wedding, we were immediately impressed when we got to Dan's website. When we met Dan in person at an open house at our venue, the choice was made even easier. Dan represented himself and his company as professional, experienced and polished. He came across as a real and heartfelt guy who is just really passionate about what he loves doing, something we've found rare in our past experiences with DJs. As we began our music journey with Dan, he was consistently in touch with us with reminders, suggestions, playlists, timelines and was always ready, willing and able to take our questions and provide valuable feedback. Dan listened to our needs as a couple and really got to know us so he could make personalized recommendations, such as a private first dance so that we, as introverts, could have a few moments alone on a wonderful but overwhelming day. On the wedding day, Dan made sure every detail was ironed out and made us feel completely at ease throughout the entire process. Our wedding was phenomenal and every guest we spoke to had an amazing time! We would highly recommend Dan for any event and we are confident that he will surpass your expectations!

DJ Peter Piper 
Rating: 5.0 (24 reviews)
New York, NY
  • DJ

Music has always been my way of connecting with people. I’ve spent years DJing weddings and private events where the right song changes the whole room. I love working with couples who care about how their night feels and want their guests to feel included and alive in the moment. I do this because there is nothing better than seeing a room full of people celebrating together to music that feels like it was made for them.

Working with DJ Peter Piper (Peter Toussaint) was one of the BEST decisions we made!! We literally lost count of the number of people who told us afterwards that Peter was the best wedding DJ they had ever heard! Guests of all ages loved the mix he created and he had an amazing intuition for which song should come next and how to perfectly blend them together! People were on the dance floor literally the whole night and it was a blast getting to dance with everyone for such a long time. Peter was punctual, communicative and friendly throughout the whole process. Before the event, Peter had several calls with us, just to make sure he totally understood the flow of the evening and was happy to make any announcements we requested throughout the night. We gave him two Spotify playlists in advance, and he played many of the songs we suggested while adding several other songs we hadn't thought of ourselves but fit our vibe perfectly. It's also clear he LOVES his job and his energy and enthusiasm was infectious as he danced along in the DJ booth. We really hope he will be DJ-ing at other weddings we attend, because he certainly knows how to set a phenomenal vibe and throw an unforgettable party!!!!

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! We hired AMP DJ/BAND HYBRID for our wedding and they were one of the best decisions we made. From the start, they were so easy to communicate with, incredibly professional, and genuinely attentive to our family’s needs. They even added last-minute band members with total ease, no stress, just smooth execution. We wanted a big party vibe, and that is exactly what we got. The vocals were phenomenal, the musicianship was outstanding, and the energy they brought was unreal. The perfect blend of music kept the dance floor packed all night, and the band read the room effortlessly. They were also so open to our personal touches, like my dream of having a big group sing-along, and they embraced it with enthusiasm. At the end of the night, they were even flexible and kind enough to stay for one last song, making the finale feel absolutely magical. One of our favorite parts was how interactive the performers were. The saxophonist, trumpet player, and lead singers came out onto the dance floor, mingled with guests, and encouraged everyone to get up and celebrate. It made the whole night feel electric and personal. A special highlight was how graciously they welcomed a performance from one of our wedding guests, seamlessly bringing them into the band and turning it into a moment we’ll never forget.

Seamless selection. Superior sounds. Elevate your wedding with world-class performances by Groupmuse musicians. Our trusted team can save you the hassle of searching for and booking music, with stress-free, full-service matching to suit your every need. When you book with Groupmuse for Hire, we will hand-select the perfect musicians for your event from our roster of over 2,500 vetted professionals, featuring alumni of top conservatories and members of elite ensembles. We take care of the details of musician booking and planning, so you can relax and create unforgettable memories.

My partner and I discovered the utter magic of GROUPMUSE small musical performances less than one year ago - and we fell seriously in love with this superb way of bringing music up close and personal to ourselves and to our neighborhoods in San Francisco. The music is very low cost in a donation only, like from 5 to 20 for a single musician. Amazing when Symphony tix start at 100 and up? We have now attended 8 performances of superbly talented local musicians in a corner coffee shop, in the balcony seating 12 fir a tiny, romantic piano atalier, in an 40-seat art gallery, in the LGBTQ Center foyer — and we have hosted a musician 3 times at our small hime for keenly appreciative guests. We’ve even made new friends in our neighborhood! We convinced our branch library to provide a room AND find City arts funds to pay a musician and the library manager wants another concert this winter! It’s so easy and fun to host - and at no cost other than opening up your home or apartment to music and providing water and maybe a few light snacks if you want. Or invite a GROUPMUSE musician of your choice to perform at your 80th birthday party as I did —or at your wedding or graduation or for your parents 50 tieth anniversary! It’s stunning to sit five feet away from a harpist or pianist and actually hear every note and see the musician break out in smiles and dance in their chairs when they resonate to what they play and love! And chat with them afterwards. It really enhances music for my partner and I.

Their playing was the perfect touch to personalize the feel of our wedding, and remains a fond memory to this day.

Stars like Quincy Jones, Bill Gates, Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks, Muhammad Ali, Jerry Seinfeld, Steven Spielberg, Beyonce, Jayz, Colin Cowie, & even Presidents, etc to name a few, have witnessed and hired Eturnity to perform their events.

The Eturnity Band/Orchestra was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, they were professional, warm, and incredibly responsive to all of our questions and requests. Their quality of work and value was excellent - they worked seamlessly with our other vendors to put on a fabulous show from start to finish. The band's energy and talent kept our dance floor packed all night long, and many of our guests commented that they were the best wedding band they had ever seen. We are so grateful to the Eturnity Band/Orchestra for helping to make our special day truly unforgettable.

Tiffany Wu, the harpist we hired for our wedding, was absolutely amazing. Her communication style was direct, effective, and good throughout the entire process. The quality of her work was excellent, unique, and truly special. Tiffany added such a special ambiance to our ceremony and reception - I couldn't tell that it wasn't a recording, she was that good! She moved locations easily when needed, was on time, and was easily one of the top things people talked about at our wedding. I cannot say enough, she was absolutely amazing and I am so thankful we were able to have her be a part of our wedding!

  • Solo performer

Monica Re Martin is a in-demand NYC violinist, violist and strings arranger - and the perfect contractor for your wedding! Monica performs regularly on Broadway, with the NYC Ballet, and with top artists such as Andrea Bocelli and Kygo. She can be seen playing weddings on TV shows like "Summer House" and "The Real Housewives of New Jersey." Monica is available as a solo violinist, both acoustic and electric, and as an instrumental duo, string trio, or string quartet.

I hired Monica and her quartet to play during our wedding cocktail hour! Monica was professional throughout and communicated really well with me from the moment I booked her to the day of the wedding! She offered to arrange songs for me that may not be on her very comprehensive list. We requested pop songs on strings and the vibe was perfect! I would highly recommend booking Monica to contract and play at your wedding!
