I cannot say enough amazing things about our cellist and pianist! They played the music for our wedding ceremony and were absolutely incredible. Everything sounded so beautiful and elegant, and they truly helped make the ceremony feel even more special and emotional.
They were so professional, talented, and easy to work with from start to finish. The music was flawless and exactly what we envisioned for our church ceremony. We received so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful the music was!
I am so incredibly happy we chose them to be part of such an important moment in our wedding day. I would recommend them over and over again to anyone looking for live musicians for their wedding. Truly amazing!

We couldn't have asked for a better experience / band at our wedding. John helped us curate the perfect vibe and we were absolutely thrilled at how everything turned out. Our guests were extremely impressed and had so much fun dancing the night away! The vocalists were interactive with the crowd and kept everyone energized, entertained, and stunned by how talented they were. Our day wouldn't have been the same had we not hired D'Amico Entertainment. Look no further, this is as good as it gets!!

We cannot say enough good things about John D’Amico Entertainment! From the moment we booked, the experience was smooth, professional, and truly above and beyond.

m set the tone for our reception perfectly — the duet violinist and pianist during cocktail hour and dinner added such elegance and warmth, and then the playlist-style DJ set after was a total vibe! Every transition felt seamless and intentional.
They handled everything on their own, from setup to soundcheck, with total professionalism. It honestly felt like we didn’t need to worry about a thing. The music, the energy, and the flow of the night were flawless. You can tell they genuinely care about creating a perfect experience for their couples.
We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out and feel so grateful to have had them be a part of our day.
Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a stress-free, high-quality music experience for their wedding!

y were great about working with us to ensure the music played was what we wanted.
Most importantly, the night of they put on a amazing show, perfectly matching the energy of our wedding (not too loud at first before ramping up and getting dance floor going). If you can, hire this band -- they were a highlight of the night.

iculty with the mics during the ceremony but we weren't even bothered because of the quick and calm demeanor John had while fixing it. He was great in lead up to the wedding too, even learning our processional song from scratch! Highly recommend if you are looking for a solo acoustic guitarist at your wedding.

oughout the entire process. He was upfront with costs and flexible with our song choices and preferences. Our guests would not stop raving about how great he was at our wedding. He played acoustic guitar both at our ceremony as well as at our brunch reception that followed. He definitely knows what he is doing and did not require any oversight/set up help. Would highly recommend! Acoustic covers are PERFECT for any wedding.
