    Wedding

    We couldn’t have asked for a better MC than Jake from Jake’s Fretworks for our wedding. From our first conversation to the last song of the night, Jake was professional, organized, and an absolute pleasure to work with. Not only did he keep our reception running smoothly and ensure every transition happened seamlessly, but his live music truly made our day unforgettable. His talent is exceptional, and the quality of his instruments and sound setup was impeccable. Every performance added a special touch that created the perfect atmosphere for both us and our guests. Jake has a natural ability to engage a crowd while keeping the focus on the couple, making everyone feel comfortable and involved throughout the celebration. We received countless compliments from our family and friends about his music, professionalism, and the incredible energy he brought to our wedding. If you’re looking for someone who can expertly MC your event while delivering outstanding live music, we highly recommend Jake’s Fretworks. Thank you, Jake, for helping make our wedding day everything we dreamed it would be and more.

    Amazing musician/DJ

    Jake was fantastic! From start to finish he was extremely professional and organized. But of course the highlight was on our wedding day listening to him play-just awesome! He helped us to customize our song selection for the ceremony and reception and then we switched to DJ mode for some dancing fun! Guests were able to make requests which we loved. Highly recommend Jake for your wedding or any other event! We will be having him back for future parties!

    Chtistian Wedding

    We hired Jake for our wedding and he went above and beyond to create exactly what we were looking for. We wanted a Christian focus and in addition to what he already knew, he learned some new songs at our request. He was very thorough and detailed and many guests commented that he was great.

Yes! We have the ability and willingness to learn YOUR song in whatever way you want! Whether stripped down or sounding like the original track, we do our best to bring the feel you desire!
As worship musicians at a non-denominational Christian church, we provide a huge collection of worship songs and hymns. We also play Christian contemporary. We are believers who fully understand Christian values and the intended message of the songs. While we consider this to be more "faith-based" than "religious", we will certainly consider providing music for a more traditional, religious gathering.
Being a standalone service who provides full amplification and microphones for your officiant and vow exchange, we arrive at least 1.5 hours prior to our first note. We like to be fully prepared with any kinks worked out prior to your big moment. Our price includes full setup and sound check.
Our regular price includes up to 25 miles from our home office in Elizabethtown, PA, 17022. After that, we charge $4 per mile to the venue. This covers any additional musicians as well.
First and foremost, we use backing tracks to help fill out the sound and emulate the original. This allows you flexibility and creativity you cannot get with a DJ, while getting the live music taste you want without breaking the bank with multiple musicians. This is unique to live musicians in the area. Secondly, most guitarists only play acoustic guitar, while we specialize in electric guitar. Electric guitar is a very versatile instrument that can play a wide array of genres, using the power of effects to create amazing spacial sounds and dynamics. Lastly, we specialize in providing worship during Christian weddings.
We have a list of vetted female vocalists that you can add to any service. We can also provide a violinist as an additional add-on.
