We had an amazing experience working with Slic Vic and Toussaint Productions for our wedding entertainment. Their Vivo app was incredibly user-friendly and helped us plan and time our reception flawlessly. Slic Vic was energetic, charismatic, and really seemed invested in making sure our celebration flowed smoothly and reflected what we envisioned. Their song selections were spot-on and kept guests of all ages dancing all night long. We felt Toussaint Productions provided top-notch service and talent that exceeded our expectations while their clear communication made planning a breeze. Slic Vic was also very approachable throughout the night and ensured we were happy with how things were going.

We worked with Summit Events for our wedding and had an amazing time! Ben was our DJ and was involved through the entire process (from booking all the way through our event) - both during and after our wedding our guests raved that Ben was the best DJ they’ve ever had at a wedding! We also used Summit Events for a Photo Booth at our reception and our guests loved it. They kept one of each photo from the night and added them to a guest photo book that we got to take home with us at the end of the night!

It doesn’t get any better than Signature DJs. We booked Signature DJs for ceremony/reception music, Photo Booth, and uplighting. Brandon and Kellie were more than helpful during the wedding planning process. Signature DJs periodically sent me emails to remind me of anticipated steps to keep me on track. I had already booked my Day-Of Coordinators, but had I not I definitely would have booked Kellie! On the day of our wedding, Signature DJs arrived early and easily set up. Meredith with the photo booth was amazing! Our guests loved the customized photobooth strips! We are so glad that we booked Signature DJs because our wedding would not have been as perfect as it was without their services!

The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band.

Kelton from Marquee Artists is awesome - he killed it dj-ing for the clients, the dance floor was non-stop going nuts the whole time! His demeanor is super low-key and easy going, and he was very easy to work with, which means a lot in this field. Weddings have lots of moving parts and can be chaotic, but having vendors that are kind and willing to work as a team makes the day go a whole lot smoother. The couple had lots of requests for songs in completely different genres, but he managed to keep the party going with no awkward pauses and seamless transitions. I highly recommend hiring him if you want someone that's going to work well with everyone and make sure to light the dance floor on fire!

For our wedding at Keswick Vineyards, we were given a list of prospective DJs to choose from. After inquiring about their recommendation for a DJ that knew how to throw an amazing dance party, we were given TD’s information. From the detailed pre-wedding questionnaire and phone conversations to the day of our wedding, T.D. was very professional, knowledgeable, and a lot of fun. We also used T.D. for our ceremony amplification. We are happy to report that we did not have any microphone malfunctions! Most importantly, the reception was truly a party from the time we were introduced until the time we made our escape. From the lighted monogram initials, choreographed dances, and a variety of music, he made sure we had everything we asked for. T.D. kept us to our timeline and kept the guests aware of the happenings around the venue.

I love knowing that we make sure our clients’ wedding or event is not just a great memory, but an amazing experience that they will cherish forever.

If I could give Prime Time Event Group 6 stars, I would (and it still wouldn't be enough). Frank and his team kept our wedding reception on the dance floor all night, through not only a playlist of bangers but also an acute sense of what song to shift into if the previous one seemed a little lackluster with the crowd (which only happened once anyway). Working with him was so easy and he's so personable; he truly made us feel more excited about the wedding every time we talked. We will be recommending him to everybody we know getting married in the area! They're amazing!

A little something that stood out: Our pastor that officiated our wedding is retired and had not done a wedding in 6 years, and it was the first one he had done without his wife of 57 years there with him. Devail and Nikki took time out of their busy schedule to share some video footage with our pastor so that he could show his wife. Talk about making it a personal experience!!

The uplights they brought for the room were priced very well and created a beautiful atmosphere. The music planning worksheet they provided was incredibly helpful, and they offered valuable advice on the timeline and flow of the reception, which was a huge help. They were fun to work with, and on the night of the wedding, they absolutely crushed it. The music was fantastic, they kept the vibes high, and their crowd engagement was excellent.

If you're looking for a band that is organized, energetic, talented, and personable, look not further. We had Fresh Take perform at my wedding with the addition of 2 horns & they were truly exceptional! Daniel, head of Fresh Take, was amazing during our planning process and the band was absolutely phenomenal during our wedding! We had seen this in a previous review so we asked the band to have the horns lead everyone outside to our cake cutting & had surprise fireworks. The 2 horns played a melody leading my husband and I, and our other guests outside. I will never forget the look on everyone's faces as the horns played - amazing! At the end of the night the trumpist and saxophonist also guided our guests out to the sparkler exit. It was the perfect extra touch to really - WOW- our guests! They even included some personal touches with our first song- learning the lyrics to "Love like crazy" and changing a few words making it increasingly intimate! Throughout the night and in the days after our wedding, it was a consistent theme that everyone LOVED our band - obviously my husband and I did too! I cannot thank Fresh Take Band enough for bringing the energy & intimacy on the most magical day of our life!

Grant was absolutely phenomenal! My husband and I, along with our guests, were blown away by his talent and his exceptional ability to accommodate all of our notes and requests. He worked closely with us to ensure everything was perfect. I highly recommend him for any event or occasion. People are still talking about his performance, and our only regret is that we didn't get to hear him for longer. It was truly magical.

Having AMP Band for our wedding was an A Experience. For our wedding, we used the DJ/Band Entertainment for reception, along with the String Duo Violins for the ceremony. During the pre-wedding planning stage, Ana & Jimmy took the time to get to know us on a personal level and answered all of our questions quickly through emails and zooms. What I loved about the planning stage with them was their ability to incorporate our music suggestions, while also providing feedback on music through their expertise. On the wedding day, they absolutely crushed it!! During our wedding, it was a perfect mix of live and dj entertainment during our reception. They met all of our expectations music-wise and did a phenomenal job of playing music to all generations during the night. We had countless people raving about their performance in the days after their wedding. Can’t recommend them anymore!!!
