Jay was our DJ (and friend) at our wedding at Renault Winery this past April. We cannot say enough good things about working with him! From the very beginning, he ensured us that he would make all of our wedding reception dreams come true and he DEFINITELY executed! He kept our dance floor full the entire night, he took care of displaying home videos on a projector during the daddy/daughter and mother/son dances, we booked a trio to play live music for the ceremony and cocktail hour, and all of this came out beautifully! We could not recommend Jay with his great energy and On The Beat FX more!!!!!

Jake was a fantastic DJ, he struck a great balance between keeping the party vibe strong without letting our guests turn the setlist into song request chaos. He helped us incorporate all of our unique wedding reception events into a seamless night. He also gave plenty of communication leading up to the event; we never worried that he would show up to our wedding without a plan or on a different page. He went above and beyond expectations bringing up planning considerations for our wedding we hadn't thought of ourselves. He even encouraged us to use him as a source of information for any and all wedding-related questions outside of DJ duties. Jake truly helped make our wedding a fun and memorable day.

And I wasn't upset with that at all - Loveday Band truly did an outstanding job, kept every wedding guest on the dance floor the entire night, sounded great, and were overall a lot of fun.

Tammy was an amazing choice for our wedding DJ! She made the process so easy. It was great for me as a bride who really wanted to personalize every aspect of my wedding even down to the cocktail hour playlist. She had some great software to organize the important songs of the day and did an amazing job of including our favorite songs and keeping the energy on the dance floor. Our guests raved about how great she was! I met Tammy/DJ Twin T through work as she was DJing in the store I worked at. Watching all kinds of people dance through the aisle of a department store can just show you what great energy she has! I couldn't recommend her more! We also got our photo booth through her and that was a great add on service, they even did took video and some behind the scenes photos along with drone footage of our venue that was so fun to watch!

The Barnstorm is an NYC-based party rock wedding band, best known for their electric and engaging dance party receptions. It's been said they're "not a real wedding band," but rather "an incredibly fun and engaging band that just happens to absolutely rock weddings!" Whether it's today's hits, top 40, hip hop, classic rock, Motown, and all things in between, The Barnstorm can do it all - putting their own spin on everything they do.

Awarded Best of Zola
The Barnstorm isn't a "wedding" band. They're a band. A really great band. And that makes them the best wedding band, in our opinion. We went to one of their live shows before booking them to play at our wedding and we knew immediately they were perfect. The band is 7 guys who you would want to be friends with -- which makes them blend in seamlessly at a wedding. Their range of songs is awesome. Everyone raved about their playlist, including a few of our guests who are huge music snobs. They also did an awesome job of getting everyone involved. People were dancing, singing along, even getting a second or two on the mic. It was like having a private live show at our wedding, which we loved and all of our guests loved. The vibe is much better than other wedding bands we've seen. On top of that they were incredibly easy to work with and accommodating. Brooks never made us feel bad for requesting songs, no matter how random, and they learned anything we asked them to that they had the right instruments for. Overall it was an awesome experience and we could not possibly recommend them enough. If every wedding we go to in the future has Barnstorm as the band, we'll be thrilled.

Mushmouth plays every show like it's Madison Square Garden! Lead singer Bill's energy is off the charts - a mix of Bruce Springsteen, Mick, Jagger, James Brown and a sprinkle of David Byrne all rolled into one! The band, a group of longtime friends, pulls off note for note renditions of all the songs while also adding to the on-stage fun. The Mushmouth show consists of big hits, one hit wonders and lost nuggets from the 70's, 80's, 90's and beyond. From Glen Campbell to the FOO FIGHTERS, Duran Duran to Eric Church.

Over the last couple of years, my wife and I hired Mushmouth for our employee appreciation parties. They are extremely talented and know how to work a room. Their energy is infectious and ensures that all in attendance are on the dance floor. All dance moves are welcomed… We highly recommend Mushmouth and look forward to our next engagement.

Hoi Polloi

A stable and fun act that has been serving the New Jersey/NY market for over 20 years. Very dependable, very responsive and helpful when asked for assistance or suggestions. We encourage our clients to come out and hear us live to decide for themselves. Much better than viewing a video and trusting it was all done live in one take.

Hoi Polloi - 10/10 having a band was super important to us. Hoi Polloi was everything we could have hoped for and more! They played all the music we asked for and were great to work with from the start. We booked them for our ceremony, our cocktail hour, and had 11 people with horns and a DJ. They were fantastic to work with and we loved working with them. Jim is super responsive which makes a difference. He made sure the band knew all the music we wanted to play and they even interacted with guests (which I loved).They are also VERY reasonably priced and should probably charge more! They were great. I think the biggest compliment is that people from all ages kept saying they loved them which was perfect to me. They opened with Runaround Sue which is one of the best wedding songs in the world. Everyone got on the dance floor once that song came on and they didn’t leave.

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.

The process was super smooth, very well organized, and the music the night of the wedding was absolutely perfect. I couldn't believe how easy it was to work with them. I received several compliments from guests on the music for the entire night (from my club-going guests to my professional musician boss).

Peter & the Master Keys is not only a great jazz band with vocals, it's also an energetic dance band specializing in the best soul, blues, and rock n' roll from the 50s and 60s plus a few more contemporary numbers to round out the set. Think Sinatra and Nat King Cole early in the night and then Ray Charles, Chuck Berry, Elvis and more later on. The idea is to play fun and energetic music that is timeless and can inspire guests of all ages to dance. We also perform as a trio and quartet for smaller occasions or cocktail parties. Packages include ceremony music, MC, jazz cocktail hour, and dance music.

Peter, along with all the incredible musicians in the band were amazing in every aspect. Before the wedding Peter and I worked through a variety of details and music ideas to create the night we imagined. With complete professionalism, they were on time, set up quick and each band member we met was truly a joy and excited to be there. This came through in the music. Once the party started we danced all night. I had a steady stream of people telling me how incredible the band is and asking, "where did you find these guys?" Barb and I had an amazing time and Peter and the band felt like friends that night. and their cool factor is 100. Your new fans. Barb and Alan

They played the all of the songs we requested, skipped the ones we did not, and read the room for the rest. No one left the dance floor longer than it took to use the restroom or grab a drink. As the night was coming to a close, we kept checking the time to do some mental math on how many more numbers we might have left. We simply did not want it to end. After the last song the crowd begged for one more. Jason and Excel obliged with an emphatic "F*!k it", and gave the crowd one additional song. It was amazing. Jason truly cares about the quality of the performance they deliver. He worked with our venue’s constraints to make sure it could be done correctly without compromising any quality. The band controlled the flow and vibe of the night and it was flawless. Their DJ Band Hybrid is a unique and unparalleled experience. We could not recommend them more highly or be more grateful for the night they gave us!!

We are now working with DJs to create the perfect package for everyone. Photo video and DJ packages can be custom to your liking. Cause of how many different ways you can customize your DJ packages we just have the bare minimum starting price that comes with Speaker/Mic system with basic uplighting. But you can upgrade the DJ package anyway which helps your special day stand out the most. From uplighting to dancing robots. We are LGBTQ+ Friendly

I know its a bit weird for me to leave a comment when this profile has the same name as mine. (I should of added DJs at the end) But I have to say that the hard work to come together to form a group of talented people that can give a client almost everything they want with just 1 group is awesome. The 3 DJs I'm working with right now, hopefully more to come, and the photo video crew we have been working with since last year of course, have really made each other's businesses whole in a way. Can't wait to see what we can do.

When my friends started to get married, the requests to DJ their weddings began pouring in. It made sense, they wanted to party, and I had helped them do it weekend after weekend all over NYC. It only took one wedding for me to realize that they needed a lot more help than what I did in the clubs. These days, I and my team help plan & entertain at all types of events (not just weddings), clients become friends (they don’t start there) and they benefit from our staff’s collective experience and the 10 years in the event industry Stem Productions has been active.

We were trying to plan a wedding in 4 months with no planner and luckily for us we had the absolute pleasure of working with Steve and Stem production for our wedding, and I can't recommend him highly enough! From the very beginning, he was an incredible resource throughout the entire planning process. Steve’s experience and insights were invaluable, not only for the music portion but for the wedding as a whole. He was always willing to share advice, tips, and his own experiences to help make sure every part of our day ran smoothly.
