“What initially drew us to his wedding package was the comprehensive nature of his offerings, all for one package price. This included everything from a drone (though we couldn’t use it due to rain… bummer), GoPro video from the day from various angles, fun lighting for the reception, and projection and recording of our vows, among other things. We loved that he offered some complimentary video services especially since we did not have a videographer. From our initial meeting, Michael made us feel comfortable and made the planning process super easy. The app that he uses to capture all of the information and song selections was easy and intuitive to use, allowing us to add details and songs throughout the the planning process. Michael was super flexible with the ceremony arrangements, accommodating our decision to hold the ceremony outside even though it was drizzling. He kept everyone MOVIN’ & GROOVIN’ on the dance floor, and many guests commented that it was the most fun wedding they had ever been to. He even let me (the bride) mix a song as the DJ, and even though I had no idea what I was doing, it made for some fun and memorable photos. We opted to rent his photo booth (which was an additional fee outside of his package… but SO worth it!), and it was a huge hit with our guests. The props he brought were unique and fun, and there was a line at the photo booth for most of the evening because everyone wanted in on the action. Michael really knocked it out of the park for us, and we were thrilled with how everything turned out. We highly recommend him for DJ services!”

“STOP, and do not look ANY further!!! INCREDIBLE! My husband and I were big on wanting an incredible band to lead our guests through an unforgettable evening. I spent endless days searching and searching for a band. So many of wedding bands, sound just like that, a wedding band. But Champagne Casanova is not your typical “wedding band.” They are just a straight up talented group of incredible musicians. We hired them to do music through our ceremony, perform at cocktail hour, and perform for our reception. They surpassed any expectations I may have had for our wedding. So many of our guests asked me how I found them, and were so floored by their performance that they wanted their business card. Daniel, Crystal and the crew were absolutely exceptional and I truly believe that if you don’t hire them for your wedding, you are doing yourselves and your guests a disservice. Daniel communicated with me through email and was incredibly friendly, helpful, and responsive through the entire process. I truly cannot say enough nice things about these guys!!!”

“When we were booking vendors, I wanted wedding professionals. I wanted people who knew the industry inside and out because we were DIY-ing our wedding and without a planner. When you book someone for your wedding, youre not just booking their service- youre booking their industry knowledge and Magnus has a LOT of knowledge and such a big heart. My example of this is within 4 hours of submitting an initial inquiry, we had an email with a scheduled time to call to chat about his services and our wedding plans to see if they matched. What really got our hearts though was before we agreed to work together, he helped me fine tune the schedule I had in my head for the wedding day. He helped us with our timeline not because he was trying to “sell” us on him, and he didnt say “if we work together I’ll help you with the timeline” which would have been perfect acceptable. He helped me because he cares about weddings and wanted to make sure regardless of who we went with for a DJ that we had a good foundation. After that call, I told Collin I wanted Magnus on our wedding team and we didnt need to even consider anyone else and let me tell you - that was one of the best decisions we made. Throughout the process he gave great ideas based on his experience not only for the party (DO THE 10-15 MINUTE DANCE PARTY!!!) but on other aspects of our wedding as well. You’re not just working with an “oh you got a *DJ* DJ!!”as my friend so excitedly said after the music started, you’re working with a professional big hearted person with years of experience who is here to help you have the best time. Our day was truly the best and Magnus was a huge part of that. Once the music started, our dance floor was packed and stayed packed to the bitter end! I will absolutely recommend him to everyone and we are still hearing about how great the music and vibes were. Pics for vibes *insert stars emoji since zola wont allow emojis*”

We have one goal when it comes to a party, and that's to keep as many people on the dancefloor as possible and to have guests leaving your event exclaiming that it's the most fun they've had in a long time!

“We couldn't have asked for a better band for our wedding day. From the very beginning, the team at Plush was exceptional. They started by taking us to breakfast to understand our vision for the day, ensuring every detail was perfect. Andrew, in particular, was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond his typical job description. His attention to detail and organizational skills were outstanding. We faced a challenge in finding a bagpiper for the church, but Andrew took it upon himself to find one at the last minute, seamlessly pulling everything together. At the reception, Plush truly rocked the house. Their energy was infectious, and they ensured everyone had a fantastic time. They collaborated seamlessly with our wedding coordinator, ensuring everything ran smoothly. My wife and I couldn't be happier with our decision to choose Plush. We highly recommend them to anyone in the New England area looking for an incredible band. Plush made our special day unforgettable, and we can't say enough good things about them.”

His communication leading up to the event was always amazing (even while he was on a cruise!). He was perfect as our officiant — the ceremony was just what we wanted. We didn’t provide a ton of guidance or make any special requests and Jimmy really knocked it out of the park; it felt like he knew us and kind of matched the ceremony to our personalities just from the few conversations we had with him prior to the wedding. Jimmy was also an excellent DJ! Our guest list was pretty small and he did an awesome job getting people on the dance floor and keeping the vibes up! He played all the songs we requested and he was super accommodating to special requests, like working with my best friend who played violin for the ceremony. Everything was seamless. Everybody loved him and spoke highly of him at the wedding — I heard he even had a little heart to heart with my dad. :’) 10/10 would recommend Jimmy!”

“From our first conversation with Elation Entertainment, John was responsive and easy to work with, which made the planning process stress-free. He showed real attention to detail when we asked him to cut our first dance songs to fit our timeline, and he nailed the transitions throughout the night. During the reception, John struck the perfect balance between keeping things formal for introductions and toasts, then switching gears once the dancing started to keep the energy high and our guests on the dance floor. His mixing was seamless and he had an instinct for reading the room, playing exactly what people wanted to hear. We were impressed by how professional yet fun he was the entire evening. We highly recommend John and Elation Entertainment for any couple looking for a DJ who actually cares about making their day special.”

“Business Time was absolutely fantastic to work with for our wedding! From our very first call, their communication was easy, quick, and personable. They really took the time to understand our vision and preferences. On the day of, they fed off the energy of the crowd and kept the dance floor packed all night with their fun, musically talented performance that spanned all generations. One of the highlights was when they split my father-daughter dance, playing a sweet song for the first half and then transitioning into our favorite upbeat song "All Star" by Smashmouth, which got the whole wedding up and dancing. We couldn't have asked for a better band to make our special day so memorable.The morning after so many guests came up to us raving about how fun they had dancing and singing. From the B52’s Love Shack, Zombie by Cranberries, to Chapelle Roan Pink Pony club- Business Time absolutely rocked it. Not to mention the acoustics for the ceremony made my husband cry. They truly have such talent on all ends. Cannot not recommend them enough, they made our wedding so memorable.”
