Darryl did a phenomenal job DJing our wedding reception. For starters, he was extremely easy to work with and very communicative. In the lead up to the wedding, we sent him a playlist of songs that we wanted to play. He expertly and seamlessly wove our playlist with his own improvisation to curate a vibe that kept the party going all night. I had friends that always avoid the dance floor tell me they danced virtually the entire reception, which prompted me and many others to pull him aside and let him know what a killer job he was doing. I would highly recommend hiring D2 Entertainment for your event!

Communication with Gerard at GrizzLee Entertainment was easy and he always had a quick response time. Gerard had the best quality equipment and sound, which really elevated our wedding reception. He used an app that made everything so easy and took the guesswork out of everything. We were able to share a playlist with him and give him an idea of what we liked, and he took that and took it to the next level. We highly recommend booking with Gerard and would hire him again!

If you are looking for an unforgettable addition to your wedding or private event, look no further than Hot 8 Brass Band. I first heard them perform at a concert in New Orleans. When my then-fiance and I decided we were going to get married in New Orleans, they were my first choice as performers. We're not from New Orleans and neither were the majority of our guests. We knew that if we were going to introduce the idea of a second line, we had to get it right. Hot 8 delivered! Right after our cocktail hour, guests were offered champagne and invited to line-up. As we made our way down historic St. Charles Avenue, Hot 8 played a medley of Teddy Pendergrass, Tems, Frankie Beverly and Maze, Bill Withers and more. Folks went crazy. After we returned to the venue, they went into an hourlong set that kept the dancefloor full. Even I popped up a few times to dance underneath the stars, with our stars! We're a month out and our guests, who were a range of ages and races, still can't stop raving about this band. If you want to ensure your guests have an out-of-this-world experience that they won't soon forget, make sure you book the Hot 8 Brass Band.

Keiko and Donald were patient and were willing to adjust without fuss or hesitation. I am looking for other opportunities to book them again. They are highly, highly recommended.

Not a single person was sitting at the tables while the Dickens were on the stage. They were very interactive with the crowd and even let the groom (a guitar player) get up there and jam out with them. This was such a fun addition to the wedding and we loved every minute of it!

We had an amazing experience with The Hook Club for our wedding. Dan and his team were so easy to work with, and their 5-piece DJ band was the perfect, fun switch-up from a traditional band for our June wedding at Greenpoint Loft. We also had a ceremony guitarist and a saxophonist with tracks for the cocktail hour, which added great touches to the day. 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.
