Spencer came highly recommended by our venue owner and hiring him for our wedding was the BEST decision we made. He’s thorough, professional, knowledgeable, friendly, easy going and a pleasure to work with. He was patient as we navigated the process and worked closely with us to create amazing playlists.

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.

I’m not usually one to write reviews but for Ashley Good and Fog City Entertainment, I HAD to! As a venue owner, I’ve met and had the pleasure of working with many DJ’s, but none have come close to touching Ashley. She’s ultra prepared, always shows up ahead of schedule, never needs anything for her set-up, and is genuinely eager to make each event better than the last. She works with her couples in advance of their big day to ensure song selections adequately meet the vibe they have anticipated and she’s always on point! Not only does she keep the dance floor full but she’s also an exceptional MC who ensures the pace and cadence of the party or reception is perfect. Ashley is fun, lively, professional, engaging, and fully “present” during each and every event and for her all of her clients. I highly recommend hiring Ashley or one of her fabulous teammates. She is absolutely our preferred vendor in this category and we are always excited for her next gig here! Call or request her soon for your next event! When you are as good as she and her team word gets out so her calendar tends to fills up quickly

Ceremony DJs did an incredible job with our recent wedding! We worked with Jamie, and enjoyed the entire process. We had multiple calls ahead of the wedding with him where he asked a bunch of questions to learn about our taste, our vision, and our family and friend’s tastes. He drove down from SF to the South Bay for a site visit to make sure there were no venue surprises and everything looked good. He was clearly invested in making sure that not only we but also all of our guests had a great time and that everyone hit the dance floor. As an indie music lover, I loved that I could trust Jamie to make my eclectic request list work! He played everything from Cocteau Twins to The Chicks to Donna Summer to MUNA to Talking Heads, and made it all work. I really felt like the wedding music from pre-ceremony to the end of the night reflected my taste and both of us received compliments from guests and family. Jamie nailed MC duties and killed it on the decks too. It was a treat to get an all-vinyl dance set and guests were super impressed! I would absolutely recommend Ceremony DJs to any couple looking for wedding music with a personality that really feels like them - and if you don’t know, trust Jamie to help you figure it out.

This team knows how to throw a party! We had a great time working with Chris in advance of our wedding and crafting the perfect vibes for our reception. Halfway through our convo, Chris just said “I got you, I see what you’re going for,” and boy did they deliver! Our guests were blown away with the quality of the music and the dance floor was always packed. The music was spot on, ebbed and flowed with the evening, and we were sad to see it end. One of the highlights of our wedding day was after our ceremony when the band was waiting on the dance floor with a New Orleans style celebration. It was so joyful and set the vibes high for the rest of the night. We cannot say enough good things about Golden Bell, it was an absolute pleasure working with them, and they truly made the night special. Hire them, you won't regret it.

Jackie was super flexible, shared her ideas and suggestions when I I didn't know what direction to go with songs ( wedding planning was stressful) but she made it easy to plan and make suggestions based on my song choices. I had her sing and play the piano for 3 different songs Father daughter dance, mother son dance, and cake cutting! Looking back, being someone who’s goal was to have more entertainment then speeches, id had her perform the whole time! Our guest raved about her voice, her performance, and how beautiful her renditions sounds. She was SO SO EASY TO WORK WITH.. With a wedding being crazy expensive..

We're live music experts, wedding enthusiasts, and party starters, infusing every event with energy and full dance floors. We're here to make your wedding the greatest party of your life! The Lucky Devils are a premium, customizable 3 to 14 piece band specializing in high-energy music–at a sensible price. Visit our website for upcoming showcase dates where you can see the band perform LIVE before booking. You can also tailor the dream band to suit your style and budget. Reach out to get started! We also offer Photo-Video services!

When my husband and I started planning our wedding two years ago, we agreed right away that we both wanted a live band for the reception - it was the most important thing for both of us, as we knew we wanted that kind of energy in the room. As we researched bands (mostly through wedding-themed websites like Wedding Wire and The Knot), we came across the Lucky Devils Band and saw all of their good reviews. There are a lot of other bands you can find in and around Los Angeles, but they had one really big advantage that most other bands didn’t - regularly scheduled showcases where you could see them perform live. LDB were actually the first band we seriously considered, but we still did our due diligence and looked into a lot of other bands. We said to each other - we can’t just book the first band we find! Well, we ended up doing just that, and it was the best decision we made! Not only do they make it easy for couples to come see them live, they are also talented, professional, and truly affordable. Mike Smirnoff, the musician/producer who was our main point of contact was super responsive, friendly, and remembered us from early on (we ended up attending a lot of their showcases because we just enjoyed hearing them live!). The small downside to the band is that because they are essentially a collective, you won’t necessarily know which musicians will be playing on the day of your event, however, Mike took into account all of our specific requests for certain members we saw at each of their showcases, and he secured everyone that we had wanted. We had a six-piece band, which included two versatile musician/singers (Andrew on guitar & vocals, and Jason on keyboard and vocals) so we got the most bang for our buck. Kaitlyn was amazing on vocals, and Mark was killer on sax, with Dimitri on bass and Mike himself on drums rounding out the band. We got SO many compliments from our guests all night long - including from his parents, who are VERY picky about music, and from other friends who are composers/musicians themselves. Our wedding was in March, right as the pandemic panic was kicking into high gear - and we were very stressed about the cancellations and our own fears, but when the music started playing, we forgot about all of it and danced until we couldn’t feel our feet. We highly recommend the Lucky Devils Band to all couples!! Get yourselves to a showcase and see for yourselves how great they are!!

My wife and I went in search of an incredible wedding band and we found it with Ruby Wedding and Party Band. The whole team, from the lead singers to the sound and light techs, was amazing to work with. Every step of the way they were courteous, on top of the details, and available to hop on a Zoom or respond to an email with our venue and our wedding planner. They took it upon themselves to make sure power and sound were all taken care of *and* they even tried to make sure we had tenting for the outdoor wedding (it wasn't even their job) just to take a load off of our plate. I'd hire this band again and again, and, if they'll do it for our 5 or 10 year wedding anniversary. Thanks!

Brooklyn, NY

After years working at a luxury entertainment design company in NYC, I noticed a void in live music, one where planners saw music as the background to the main event rather than something that can guide and elevate it. The bands weren’t listening to the room. We should make deliberate music choices based on the people in it, reacting to them. Not the other way around. My desire to create this harmony sparked the founding of Honey+Vinyl in 2013. Ten years in the industry, she began to dive deeper into the science of sound; how lighting, décor, food and timing interact with music, which drove her to establish the Sonic Sommelier™ service.

We hired Honey & Vinyl for our wedding and liked them so much we had them back for our anniversary party. Honey has an amazing voice and spent time with us to not only create a personalized song list but also understand the "mood" we were trying to create for our events. The group's performance at both events was nothing short of spectacular and really added the extra "wow" we were seeking.

Dan and the entire team were phenomenal to work with. Every thing we asked for, they delivered on, down to the confetti cannons. Don't overthink it- this team is amazingly professional, highly skilled and really, really fun!!! You won't regret booking them! We had a ceremony piano which was gorgeous on the beach and a string quartet that performed from the upstairs balcony during the cocktail hour - both of which incorporated our specific requests and more general stylistic requests (e.g., more modern songs that you might not expect to hear a string quartet play). The Hook Club really brought the party for our reception and after party- we had an incredible band with amazing stage presence and the after party DJ was great about taking our in-the-moment requests which made for an amazing night. I personally missed the confetti earlier on and Dan was kind enough to do a little more for me even as we approached the end of the night. Again- can't say enough good things. If you book them please invite me to your wedding so I can enjoy it all again!!!!

Ceviche worked with us to create a playlist that fit us. When we wanted a lot of control of the music, he gave it to us- when we wanted him to curate the music, he made the best playlist out there. Special props to Ceviche for suggesting a pre-dinner dance too- cant say how many of our friends have since emulated that move. All along, Ceviche was incredible to work with- clear communicator and made the whole thing easy for us. Cant recommend Ceviche enough!

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.

We got married last year and wanted live music, both to set the tone while guests arrived, and during our ceremony. We had talked with Dave about the type of feeling we wanted: both intimate and classy, and he gave us a full range of songs and material to select from, both with vocals and without. He showed up on time with all the equipment needed and worked independently with our coordinator without a glitch. He's a true professional-- on time and totally prepared.

If we asked each and every person what their favorite part of our wedding was, hands down it was the music.

So many people rushed to us to ask how we got so lucky finding them.

Weddings for me are the most rewarding events we play. I take very seriously the fact that the couple has entrusted us to be a part of the biggest day of their lives and there is nothing better than hearing the entertainment was the highlight of the reception. From allowing the couple to choose exactly what they want to hear from our song list to allowing them or their party goers to be a part of the show, my goal is to work with them to make sure the band exceeds their expectations. This approach has allowed the 80'z All-Stars and MSE to flourish for 20+ years.

As a live event production company, I have had the opportunity to work with thousands of artist over the years. I have had the pleasure to work with The 80'z All-Stars/Mama Said Entertainment for over 10 years at multiple venues and occasions. Their professionalism, ease to work with and overall performance energy is not surpassed.

We loved having Mehul DJ our wedding! We hired Mehul for both our sangeet and our wedding ceremony / reception. He was very organized and provided suggestions and templates to make sure everyone was clear on what songs should be played at which moments (first dance, cake cutting, entrances, etc.). He did a great job of incorporating songs we / our parents had requested and did a great job of balancing between newer music and songs that got our parent's friends on the dance floor too! He also made sure to find us at the end of our Sangeet and asked if we were happy with the music / if there was anything he could improve on before the wedding the next day - he did great but really appreciated that he did this to make sure we were happy! All of our guests loved it and we had a full dance floor all night, both nights!
