Cover Story Entertainment

Rating: 5.0 (42 reviews)

“Wedding advice: hire Cover Story Entertainment! We worked with CSE for our July wedding. We went with the ceremony package, 6-piece band as well as their uplighting and photo booth services. Our experience with CSE from start to finish was 10/10. Chris and Elena are incredibly organized, communicative, and responsive. They always answered all of our questions (and I asked many!) Alec, Alex, Savannah, and the rest of the band members rocked it all night. One of the first things guests commented on about our wedding was how amazing the band was. One of our guests commented that they wish they could cancel their DJ and fly CSE to their wedding in Portugal because they loved them so much. Extremely talented musicians for an awesome price, which make a huge difference when wedding planning. When we reflect on our wedding day, Cover Story is a huge part of what made it such a memorable night. -MK AJ Dunne”

DJ Dan Fudim

“DJ Dan blew us out of the water from the very first call we had with him. His professionalism, communication, and positive, uplifting vibe was perfect for our evening. Constantly throughout the night our guests were complimenting how great the music was and how awesome Dan and his transitions were. He is the definition of a smooth operator.”

After 14 plus years DJing weddings across New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, I know the fear is not just bad music. It is awkward MC moments, dead air, generic playlists, and a dance floor that never connects. My style combines real wedding experience with NYC nightlife instincts: live mixing, clean announcements, calm planning, and room reading that keeps every generation included without making the night feel forced.

“John is an amazing DJ . Having him from the moment we chose him to the day of our wedding having the monthly check ins really helped make the process easier.

He has his own website accommodated to you where you can add any music you want through YouTube etc worked out well with our wide variety of genres our guests liked.

“Our wedding was perfect for many reasons but Jeff went above and beyond for our event as our DJ. We didn’t give much direction as far as songs but Jeff was so intuitive to our crowd that every song made every guest get up out of their seat. Jeff is a pro and the compliments are still being received on the music for the event.

His performance truly made the event unforgettable. As a wedding coordinator, having the vendors be so supportive and enjoyable to work with really does make it so special for not only the bride and groom, but for us too! From the moment we began working together, I was impressed by his professionalism and enthusiasm. He went above and beyond to understand the couple’s preferences and create a playlist that perfectly matched the vibe they were aiming for. His ability to read the crowd and keep the energy high was simply amazing. Not only did he deliver an outstanding musical experience, but he also made the entire process smooth and efficient. His friendly demeanor and can-do attitude made it a pleasure to work with.

“We booked Shaded Soul Band for our wedding this past March and couldn't be happier with the decision. A live band was an absolute must for our wedding day and Shaded Soul was the perfect choice. Renee, the band leader stayed in touch with us throughout the entire planning process and answered every question with helpful details. She worked behind the scenes with our venue and our schedules, providing a truly stress-free experience since the first inquiry. On our wedding day, the band kept the fun and energy up all night, our guests were dancing from start to finish with a perfect mix of songs. They're polished professionals who really know how to read the room and keep the party going. They even learned our first dance song (which they did a phenomenal job with). Renee also coordinated a song in honor of my late father which was so special and meaningful to myself and my now husband. We continue to receive compliments about Shaded Soul, even weeks after the wedding! Thank you so much to Renee and the entire Shaded Soul band for making a last impression on our wedding!”

Jacob was our DJ and he kept the party jumping, nailed all the 'classic wedding' moments of first dance, etc... while still playing music that all the generations to boogie too. We were delighted to work with Jacob and highly recommend his services. On top of being friendly & positive during set-up and take down, Jacob brought the party and had a big smile the whole darn night. My spouse and I loved meeting to prep, and felt like all our hopes about the playlist were respected (and amplified!). Jacob even brought party lights for us as a delightful surprise!! I very much hope to never get married again, but when I'm looking for my next DJ or sound tech for an event of any size, I know I'll be calling Jacob. (Photos by Benjamin Allen at HudValley Photo)”

Barattini Productions

“First of all, they were the first vendors we booked and can see why they come so highly recommended!!Jeremy was excellent in coordinating all things leading up to the wedding including the wedding day timeline, and he set us up with the absolute best group of people for our wedding day. The day of we had Nick as our DJ and Mike as our MC, they checked in with us a few days before to see if we had any questions or concerns and were so attentive throughout our entire wedding. They brought so much heart, energy, and fun to our day and I seriously can’t imagine having our wedding without them. People are still talking about the amazing music selection, the dancing, the crowd surfing, and the fact that they were the best DJs they’ve ever seen at a wedding. At one point, the smoke detectors went off due to someone smoking in the bathroom, causing the entire wedding to evacuate outside. As you could imagine this situation would normally be stressful, or cause low morale when entering back in after 15-20 mins of being outside waiting for the fire department, but I can’t emphasize enough how Mike and Nick absolutely KILLED it and immediately brought back the energy and dancing as if nothing happened. They played “we didn’t start the fire” and I swear I’m still smiling about how iconic that was. I can’t recommend this group enough, ESPECIALLY Mike and Nick. Thank you for making our night absolutely epic and unforgettable!”

Bright Set Entertainment

Rating: 5.0 (49 reviews)

“We cannot recommend Bright Set Entertainment enough! We used Bright Set for our wedding at Mountain View Grand in May 2026 and hired them for our DJ, photo booth, ceremony and reception audio, and piano music. From the very beginning, Cassandra was incredible to work with. We spent over a year planning together, and she was organized, responsive, detail-oriented, and always willing to hop on a call, answer questions, or help think through ideas. One thing that really stood out was how invested Cassandra was in making sure everything ran smoothly. She wasn't just someone behind the scenes coordinating logistics — she was actually onsite for our wedding day and felt like part of our team. Unfortunately, we experienced an unexpected fire alarm interruption immediately following our first dance that temporarily paused our reception and forced guests outside. Cassandra, alongside our day-of coordinator, immediately jumped into problem-solving mode. When we were finally able to return to the ballroom, she creatively had us reintroduced to "Fire Burning" by Sean Kingston, which turned a stressful situation into a funny and memorable moment that had everyone laughing. We were so grateful for her ability to stay calm, think quickly, and help keep the energy positive. DJ Dennis was fantastic and kept the dance floor packed all night. He did an amazing job reading the room and creating a fun atmosphere for guests of all ages. The photo booth was a huge hit as well. Guests loved the glow booth and the customized photo overlay, and we ended up with so many great keepsakes from the night. Entertainment-wise, everything was seamless. The ceremony audio, microphones, piano music, reception flow, DJ services, and photo booth were all executed beautifully. If you're looking for an entertainment company that is professional, organized, talented, and genuinely cares about your wedding experience, Bright Set Entertainment is absolutely the team to hire.”

DJ Ore Santana

Rating: 5.0 (40 reviews)

“Booking DJ Ore was one of the best calls we made for our wedding. From our first phone call to the last song at 1am, he was on top of everything — quick to respond, organized, and genuinely invested in getting our day right. We got married at a camp in the Catskills with the ceremony out in the woods, which meant some tricky logistics: separate sound for the ceremony in the trees, load-in with the venue staff, a timeline that kept shifting on him. Ore handled all of it and we never had to think about any of it. The music was unreal, and he kept the dance floor packed the entire night. Our guests basically refused to leave it, and we honestly lost count of how many people came up to us throughout the night to say how good the music and the DJ were. The thing I'll always remember, though, is how he made space for my Tío to play. My Tío sang and played guitar, and Ore made sure he had everything he needed to do it right. He and Chris brought so much energy and just knew how to keep the room going. If you want a DJ who's professional, easy to talk to, and cares about your day, book him. Thank you for everything, Ore — you gave us a night we won't forget. Cannot recommend enough.”
