Having worked with Diego for many years I was super excited to see him start his own company with Paradise Event Entertainment. His professionalism is unbeatable, but the most important thing is he brings so much energy and talent to all his events.

Hands down a top wedding highlight! We worked with The Hook Club for our Manhattan wedding in September ‘23, and the DJ Band exceeded our expectations - we had friends and family asking about the band well after the wedding and even following them on instagram! The Hook Club and Dan were incredibly professional from start to finish - they guided us through all key planning decisions, learned our first dance to play live, worked seamlessly with our planner and venue, and created an incredible dance atmosphere! Vocals and musicians (especially the sax!) were on point the whole night. We didn’t have much time for the band to set up during cocktail hour, but they were so professional working with the venue and ensured we didn’t have to give any thought to logistics. Look no further if you’re in NYC - this is your band!

Awarded Best of Zola
Cello Joe was great to work with throughout the entire process--from coordinating prior to the event to setting up and performing on the day. I originally reached out to Cello Joe to have him entertain my party with his amazing cello skills, but ended up hiring him to DJ due to my restricted budget. When my schedule went a little awry, he graciously kept the party going past our agreed-upon time and even busted out his cello to elevate the atmosphere while asking nothing in return. When you hire Cello Joe, you not only get a professional entertainer, you also get a solid event-coordinating teammate. Do not hesitate to hire Cello Joe for your event.

My husband and I knew that music would be one of the most important factors in our wedding. I don't know how we stumbled upon Christina, but I'm so glad we did. Cameron and I decided to book her live band for the dinner and DJing for the dancing after. Christina was so thorough, she asked us questions we hadn't even thought about. She perfectly tailored the music to our tastes and all of our guests had a blast at the wedding. So many people on the dance floor! Great vibes!

Awarded Best of Zola
I can't say enough good things about Dan from NY Wedding DJ! Right from the first consultation my partner and I were met with a friendly attitude and attention to detail, asking specifics about what we were hoping for during the reception. I've been to so many weddings where a mediocre DJ makes the reception drag on and on, but Dan's choice of music were totally catered to us and our type of crowd and it made the party bopping all the way until the last dance! Additionally, as an LGBT couple, we felt incredibly supported by Dan from NY Wedding DJ, and felt he offered a very inclusive atmosphere for us to be our comfortable selves around. I wish we could do it all over again just to have Dan throw another perfect reception!!

Through faith and hard work, Maui born local sensation Derick Sebastian continues to live his dream as an accomplished international ‘ukulele virtuoso. He's shared the stage with singer/songwriter pop star Jason Mraz, the melodic Raining Jane, powerhouse Trombone Shorty, country star icons Thompson Square and Sara Evans, and R&B sensations, Boyz II Men and Brian McKnight, and a highlighted private performance and ukulele lesson with Oprah Winfrey. Derick also has notable performances at many major sporting events and toured full-fledged around the globe, continuing his dedication to inspire lives through his music.

What can we say other than we absolutely love Derick! He is the best! We eloped due to Covid, and then about nine months later we did our family and friends ceremony. Derick graciously officiated both ceremonies, and 100% customized his officiating to fit our wants. His personality and presentation shine as he is a natural, sincere, and engaging. Then, there are his musical talents he incorporates into the ceremonies as an option as well. Simply said, he is hands-down the best at what he does with the ukulele! Derick is now part of the family as far as we're concerned! He's the best!
