Manny and his team were amazing. Before the wedding he made sure to ask if we wanted specific songs for different parts of the ceremony and reception. We didn’t have a ton of specific songs, but we made a list of music with the vibes we wanted. Manny took the list, ran with it, and really took care of us. The dance floor was packed all night! He even played Tagalog pop songs and managed sound for a Filipino folk dance group. We also loved the little details like the template for our photo booth photos, the lights for the dance floor, and our initials projected on the wall. Thank you Bay Pro DJs, we’re so glad that you were there to help make our wedding so special.

Awarded Best of Zola
We’re so glad we hired Spencer to DJ our wedding! He handled the audio for the wedding ceremony itself, MC’d the reception, played the music for the dancing, and also provided uplighting for the event space. Everything he worked on just went smoothly. The audio for the ceremony was high quality and just worked. He did a great job as MC, staying on time, announcing what was happening, and making everyone feel welcome. He did fantastically with the music too - we had a few specific requests, and he nailed them all, but most of the night we gave only vague instructions and he made a ton of great picks, keeping energy high on the dance floor. The uplighting he provided was beautiful as well and really elevated the space! Throughout the process, he was easy to work with, timely, communicated proactively, and was always on top of every little detail. We’d definitely recommend him for anyone looking for a DJ!

I am a wedding and event planner and have worked with Jackie Gage on multiple occasions. As a planner, there are a few things we always look for in the event professionals we work with: ease of communication, kindness, team players, easy to work with, excel and are passionate about their craft. Jackie checks off all these boxes and much more! Jackie is always warm and welcoming in her communications, it was so easy to plan together. On event days, Jackie is communicative and works seamlessly with our team with the common goal of making sure the day runs smoothly. And her singing music is amazing!

Talent matters, and All Ears DJs have shown up & showed out at more than 1000 weddings in the San Francisco Bay Area during the past decade.

cking a proper DJ for my wedding was probably what I was most nervous about, but I’m glad we found Richard because he killed it. We strayed a bit from the stereotypical wedding songs and instead went straight into party mode after our first dances. Richard kept the dance floor shaking until 1 am and blended our suggestions and “must plays” seamlessly with other bangers from his repertoire. If house, disco, booty bangers, and crowd pleasers is your jam, Richard has you covered. His communication was also always prompt leading up to the event and delivered the professional you’d expect.

Tyler is AMAZING. We found Tyler through our wedding planner and we are so glad we did. He is super responsive and deeply cares about making each couples wedding day important and tailored to them. For us the music was a huge part of our wedding day as we are both heavily into music as well as our parents. Tyler spent over 2 1/2 hours on our final call (originally meant to be an hour) perfecting the set and perfect types of music to play for each sequence of events throughout the entire wedding day. He created such a magical atmosphere from start to finish. The ceremony music was timed beautifully and the cocktail hour music was amazing when he started playing sax! He was a huge crowd pleaser all night long, especially on the dance floor. My husband and I are big into EDM and boy did he deliver the last hour playing music that had everyone so pumped up to the point where our wedding had ended and our crowd was SCREAMING for one more song! The day was absolutely amazing and we cannot thank Tyler enough for going above and beyond in his delivery and performance of music for our special day.

I had the pleasure to hear these guys play at a wedding I was photographing and they were AMAZING! I've seen plenty of bands play at weddings over the years, but these guys had a level of professionalism and talent that is rarely seen and heard. They had a great stage presence, their musicianship was on point, and everyone had a great time, including me! I will be referring these guys to anyone that is looking for a band to perform at their event.

I hired this band for my wedding and they were amazing. From our consultation to the day of the wedding, Patryce and Steve were with us. It did not seem like it was just business. I guess it's because they are a couple. The music was fantastic and the musicians were crème de la crème. I highly recommend them

DJ Gavin was very understating and accommodating for my wife and I. We decided to have him play music for our wedding ceremony a week before and he did that with no hesitation. Definitely would recommend!

Our DJ/BAND HYBRIDs are carefully crafted to your needs giving you limitless musical possibilities! Your event is right around the corner... Get amped and GET AMP!

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring AMP was the all time BEST decision we could have made for our wedding! We had immediate comfort and trust in them from the first time we spoke, and the show they put on for our day was better than we ever could have imagined. They were incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the whole process of planning and had no problem with even the most far-fetched ideas (including my wife surprising me by getting up and playing the drums with the band). If we asked each and every person what their favorite part of our wedding was, hands down it was the music. Ana, Jimmy, and the rest of the band had everyone dancing the entire night without question. It was hit after hit after hit with the whole crowd! So many people rushed to us to ask how we got so lucky finding them. Ana and Jimmy truly respected and acknowledged everyone’s pronouns and made everyone in our family and party seen and comfortable through the entire process. AMP put their entire heart and soul into every performance. Their passion is so evident with each song they play, and their energy is just contagious. You cannot help but smile and dance throughout their whole set. And the TALENT! The talent is through the roof! All of our guests were completely shocked at the level of professionalism and talent AMP brought to our event. I cannot stress enough how utterly amazing AMP is. Do yourself a huge favor and book them, you will not regret it for a second.

Sounds Elevated specializes in offering the best premium wedding and event services in the SF Bay Area and select destinations worldwide. We create exciting and unique events and go above and beyond to create a special experience for our couples and clients. We have a team of event professionals who specialize in DJ / Live fusion, world-class dance parties, stunning lighting design and high-quality photo booths. When good isn’t good enough and your worst fear is getting that cheesy DJ that your guests don’t like or won’t remember, Sounds Elevated is here to help!

This review for Zeb (and the whole Sounds Elevated Team) is long overdue. Zeb is not only an incredible musician in his own right but plays the role of musical conductor with equal panache. A true “Jack of All Trades.” Some of the many hats he wore for our wedding include: -He played solo guitar for our ceremony -Lined up a jazz quartet for the happy hour -Setup the party lighting (party but classy) for the reception -Setup a photo booth for guests to take fun photos (a big hit btw) -DJ’d with a live accompaniment combo for the reception - stayed up way later than we asked him to, and DJ our afterparty (which was a VERY different vibe than the reception). He was hustling for easily 10 hours straight. And every single element he contributed to the festivities was top tier. My older cousin, a professional musician for many years, was blown away by the level of talent. It’s been almost two years since the wedding and we still get compliments about the entertainment. He and his team went above and beyond. Easily the best “value” for anything we spent money on for the wedding. I strongly recommend meeting with Zeb and gearing his philosophy/approach to weddings/events.

  • Serves San Jose, CA for additional fees

Bassist and bandleader Josh Levine got his start in the professional music business busking in SoHo with The Flying Neutrinos in ’93, so when NYC shut down in Spring of 2020, he capitalized on his experience as a street performer and began to play regularly in the parks of NYC with percussionist and sonero, Jainardo Batista, renowned flutist Itai Kriss making his debut on Cuban trés guitar, and María Raquel on vocals and minor percussion. Before long, the quartet had generated some buzz, several venues hired them to play outdoors and pianist Gabriel Chakarji and Grammy winning flutist and vocalist Jeremy Bosch became staples of the group.

I have used Cuarteto Guataca both personally (birthdays, family events) and professionally as a wedding/ event florist and event planner for YEARS. Every time they manage to get everyone on their feet. They are super professional always and extremely easy to work with. Hands down, Josh and his band will always be my first choice for latin entertainment (any entertainment for that matter)!!
