We are so glad to have found Dayve and his unique services! Not only is he an incredible musician, his “No DJ” option was exactly what we were looking for! Having spent a good deal...
of time cultivating our wedding dinner and dancing playlists, we wanted the option to use those while not breaking the bank on a DJ who may not have had the same genres of music in mind for our celebration. And Dayve’s accompaniment on guitar was perfect for our outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour - he seamlessly switched from one style to the other and plays beautifully. His music added an element of elegance that was just what we had hoped for and more!
Dayve was also really easy to work with and very responsive. We loved having a chance to run all of our song ideas by him in advance. We feel like we made a new friend by the end of it. We’ll be the lucky ones if so!! Thank you so very much, Dayve!

perfect! Plus, he is so adorable! I would absolutely recommend Dayve for your wedding day music!
We got married at the Mountain Top in September, and had met Dayve at our tasting back in early 2020 (we postponed our wedding due to COVID, and Dayve was so flexible through that ...
process!). He was playing guitar during the tasting event, and we all loved his music – my dad and father-in-law especially. He was so friendly in person, and came so highly recommended by our planner, that it was an easy decision to hire him! Dayve and violinist Emily Sunderman played during our ceremony and cocktail hour. They learned a few songs for the ceremony, and had a great mix of oldies on rotation during cocktails. Our guests loved them, and I thought it was nice to have a mix of songs throughout the day (since our band played more top 40)! Dayve was communicative and helpful during the planning process, and very easy to work with. He has also played at the Mountain Top so frequently that he's very familiar with the venue and staff, and knows exactly what to do and where to go. He and Emily are both so talented – I would definitely recommend hiring them for your wedding!
Dayve is wonderful! He was quick to respond to every message, happy to chat on the phone, happy to meet in person (when I was in the area). He made the entire process so easy. Dayv...

Dayve was exceptional! He did a great job connecting with us ahead of time to discuss schedule, budget and songs. He offered to extend his time to play to cover our seated dinner. ...
He went above and beyond for our wedding. His musical ability and song choice is wonderful, all of our guest raved about the music. I would hire Dayve again for any event!

ork with leading up to our wedding and was very familiar with the venue, which helped a lot. He arrived on time to set up and worked with our officiant to make sure she was properly set up for the ceremony. The duo played beautiful music throughout the ceremony and cocktail hour and guests had nothing but great things to say. Dayve and his team are extremely talented and we hope to work with them again in the future! I would highly recommend booking Dayve for your wedding weekend!

music and we are so incredibly glad he did! He has a wonderful repertoire of songs that fit our tastes perfectly, and he was even more than willing to learn my husband and I’s favorite song (that was not on the list) and played it as I walked down the aisle. He is extremely talented, professional, kind, and accommodating, and he made our ceremony absolutely beautiful. The laid-back vibe of the cocktail hour music was exactly what we were hoping for and set the tone for fantastic conversation. We highly, highly recommend Dayve for your ceremony & cocktail hour music!!
