EastCoast Entertainment

WOW. That’s all I have to say. EastCoast Entertainment introduced us to J Baxter & the Sauce. Between the dancing, singing, and overall energy-it couldn’t have gone better. We’re really grateful for them!

The Party Rockers were even better than we expected! They truly made our wedding! They are incredibly talented and so much fun! So many of our guests kept asking who they were and where we found them! I would hire them again and again! I cannot say enough good things about this band! Greg, the head of the band was so kind and so responsive! They said they could learn a few songs for us and delivered those so well! If you are looking for a fun, energetic, and absolutely talented band, don’t look any further! The Party Rockers are the best!!

Alison and I will be forever grateful for the show Blair’s West performed at our wedding. The band had our dance floor packed from the first song through the last, with everyone cheering for “One more song!” at the end of the night. The band brought so much joyful energy and artful musicality to the experience that we simply can’t recommend them enough. From an operational standpoint, they were ultimate professionals and helped us figure out everything from where to source electricity to coordinating the mic and equipment for speeches. From a music perspective, our guests—many of whom are accomplished musicians themselves—were so excited by the band’s incredible skills, talents, and clear love of music. They covered everything from country to the best of pop and rock from the 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, and beyond. What a fantastic and fun night. We’ll remember it forever. Thank you, Blair’s West.

We had the absolute greatest time for our wedding thanks to the Atlanta Showstoppers and EastCoast Entertainment! The band was amazing and so fun. We had seen them once before and they were even better this time around. Their energy is incredible and they brought immaculate vibes to the entire party. Everyone has told us how much they enjoyed them! ECE is an absolute pleasure to work with - they helped us find the perfect band and were incredibly professional the entire time. I cannot recommend EastCoast enough!

After I did an online search for wedding bands in Virginia and listened to some, I contacted the band Vinyl Headlights and they put me in touch with their booking agent Mason with EastCoast Entertainment to get the process started. Mason did an excellent job in explaining everything to me about booking the band. He sent me the contract and then put me in touch with the band to hash out the details for our big day. The band had a Wedding Questionnaire that I could fill out to help them get a better idea of exactly what we wanted. I communicated with John and Alex of Vinyl Headlights through email so we could become familiar with one another. They were very helpful and receptive to what we wanted. When our wedding day came, the band was at the venue early to set up, which was great! The guys knew exactly where to set up. When the reception kicked off, they were a hit! Everyone loved them and they were so entertaining. They kept the party going for about three hours. I highly recommend Vinyl Headlights to anyone looking to have a band at their wedding. Also, thank you to Mason and EastCoast Entertainment for making our big day even more special!

Brad Strouse & DJ Patrick Zurn: Brad was the most phenomenal wedding director! Bring a C*vid couple and cancelling, postponing TWICE, and finally having the big day 2.5 years later, Brad stuck with us through it all! He even answered my emails on his vacation! He went above and beyond and I won’t hesitate to reach out for other events. Anyone looking MUST book through them! Patrick not only stayed with us for the long haul, but he was so committed in planning calls and very easy to work with! He took our dreams of music and SHOWED UP! There was not one song that someone wasn’t on the dance floor! Patrick gave us the most special gift of entertainment for our long awaited wedding day and we will never forget it! Our guests have non stop talked about how amazing the DJ was!! A night we will be reliving over and over.

The Dundies made our wedding an incredible, personalized concert. They were so welcoming and somehow still made the reception about us as a couple, all while playing amazing songs that everyone loved. All of the guests we talked to after the wedding said it was the best wedding they had ever been to, thanks to the Dundies. We will cherish our night forever and will travel anywhere to see another one of their shows again. Thank you to ALL of you for being such amazing musicians and making us feel even more amazing on our day.

Brad Strouse at ECE was such a pleasure to work with. He was responsive and communication as clear. We also enjoyed the clear platform ECE has created for their online portal, making payment and contacts clear and most importantly transparent with no hidden fees. By hiring ECE you are guaranteed to be in good hands. Trust me you won't look back! Side note if you are considering a DJ, we can not recommend DJ Felton more. If you want your guests pulled to the dance floor there is no better person than DJ Felton.

We booked Elliott Ness to be our DJ for our wedding and he did not disappoint! He was awesome to work with and did an amazing job. He played a wide range of music and kept the dance floor filled all night! The google doc that he sent us to fill out is what my type A bride dreams are made of! The day went so perfectly thanks to Elliott!

East Coast Entertainment was very helpful throughout the process. They were very responsive and gave us insight into the right band for us. Trademark was the BEST BAND ever! We have never seen so many people on the dance floor at a wedding, all night long. They truly made the night the best night of our lives, and we could not be more appreciative. The songs were amazing, the lighting and acoustics were incredible. They are the best wedding band around!!

The InsideOut band was phenomenal at our wedding! They exceeded our expectations and kept our guests on the dance floor all night long! You will NOT be disappointed in hiring this professional band! Brad from East Coast Entertainment took the time to make sure everything was on point!

Holy crap Re Drum was AMAZING!!!!!!! Would do it all again!!!! Thanks for the best entertainment we could ask for.

Southside Station played instrumentals at our reception and cocktail hour. We requested a few special songs and I loved their version of our songs even more than the actual songs! They were nothing short of amazing. They took our vibe and ran with it. Music is so important to us and there was no better match for our wedding day, you made us laugh, you made us cry, and you made us dance! :) We want a recording of our song - you guys have no idea how much you killed it! We couldn't stop talking about how gorgeous the ceremony music was. My husband was so impressed with the wide range of songs you played. You cannot go wrong with this group 😁

ECE Entertainment’s portal to listen to different band demos was excellent, and after a recommendation from a previous client, we decided to reach out and learn more. John Wolfslayer was fantastic from the start. We selected a band, changed our reception date due to COVID, and then 5 days before our wedding reception, a few of our band members were exposed to COVID and we needed a new band. John called us with a great plan in place to soften the stress. He had already called another band that was available —and more expensive than our original band that agreed to play for the price we had already paid in full. Communication was effective, the portal was easy, and our experience was great— even with last minute craziness and multiple changes due to COVID. Would recommend for your band booking!

What a night to remember! Thank you East Coast Entertainment and Mason Owen for helping us select the best band ever! There were so many decisions that needed to be made because we had to change our venue from an indoor facility to an outside garden tent. Our band, 76 Degrees West was able to accommodated all of our needs and wishes and they were fabulous. Mason Owen helped put it all together making sure every detail was in order. We could not have done it without Mason and his help from East Coast Entertainment. If you want to book the best band Ever!!!! You need 76 Degrees West!!! You won’t stop dancing!

We had the best experience with DJ Patrick of Cruz Productions! Patrick’s agent, Brad was so easy to communicate with and made each step in the process of booking 100% stress-free. Throughout the whole process, Patrick was very organized and communicated with us every step of the way. The day of the wedding, his attention to details, timing, music selection, and DJing skills were perfect for both our outdoor ceremony and indoor reception! We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ and all of our guests (young and old) said he was the best DJ they have ever seen! We couldn’t recommend Patrick more!

Booking was super easy, and the band we hired knocked it out of the park! All our guests were raving about them, and they were surprisingly affordable for the quality of performance, and compared to what I've heard from other couples who looked at bands. Bubba (the drummer/point guy for Harley Boone) was great at communicating what they could do and making sure they knew what we wanted for the evening. Overall a great experience

Very professional company, helped me find the right band and took care of me throughout the whole process. Mason was an absolute please to work with. They did everything we asked and went the extra mile to assure our big day was special.

One of the highlights of our wedding was our band, The Hunts. They were truly unforgettable and our guests can’t stop talking about them. Our dance floor never cleared!!! Dealing with ECE was incredibly easy and one of the least complicated processes in all of our preparation.

EastCoast Entertainment was amazing! The process of finding the perfect band to match our wants/needs was so simple. We had the best night and our guests raved about the band.

THE.BEST. We could not have been more pleased with The Band Punch. They were absolutely amazing from beginning to end. No words could quite do it justice.. their talents are something that I have never experienced. They are a MUST if you are considering a live band! Thank you so much for providing the cherry-on-top of our perfect day!

Our agent at ECE, Mason Owen, was great to work with as we looked for a band for our daughter’s wedding reception. He was very responsive and knowledgeable about the bands that ECE represents and gave us good advice and suggestions. Mason helped us to find a great band within our budget. Moonshine, the band we hired, was fantastic and wonderful to work with. I highly recommend ECE/Mason Owen and Moonshine.

This band was truly amazing. They played classics during cocktail hour which were totally appropriate and comforting, but when it came time to dance, they had everybody up and moving. It was impossible to not dance and boogie with such fabulous choices, appropriate for all ages present. The singers as well as the musicians were wonderful. Worth every penny!

When it came to our wedding, a band was our top priority. We wanted a band that played all types of music, could MC, and could get the party going and keep it going. I started doing research and came across East Coast Entertainment. I started looking at different bands and seeing which ones I liked. After doing some research, I ended up in contact with Brad Strouse. After talking with him I wish I had contacted him from the start! He was easy to talk to, responded promptly to calls or emails, and made the whole process so much easier. I had mentioned to him a couple bands we liked, however they were either too expensive or already booked. After a few emails, Brad got a feel of what we liked, and recommended we check out the band Trademark. We fell in love with the band and immediately booked them. Finding wedding vendors can be stressful, however Brad took the stress away and made the whole booking process a breeze. He kept in contact with us the whole time, and made sure everything was good to go for the wedding. After the wedding he even checked in to see how everything went. Booking Trademark was the best decision we could have made. The band was absolutely amazing and the guests loved them. We are still getting compliments! Thank you Brad Strouse and ECE!!

Great vendor to work with professional and timely in their response. Jack with East Coast went above and beyond to make sure I had a band I loved on my wedding day! TFC Band and Show were my dream band they were excellent, not one person at my wedding didn't dance! My family is musicians and not easy to please when it comes to music, but they all commented on what a great band they were!

I had the pleasure of working with Brad from the Richmond East Coast Entertainment group. He is a spectacular person and was 100% dedicated to providing all the options we needed when choosing the right band for our wedding. We decided to book Trademark and let me tell you: it was the BEST band I have EVER heard! During our entire reception, our guests were complimenting them and saying how awesome they rocked the house! Shout out to everyone at East Coast but an even bigger one to Brad and Tradmark for making our night everything we dreamed and more!

East Coast Entertainment was WONDERFUL! We worked with Ellie and she was fantastic in helping us find the perfect band for the vibe we wanted. Men of Distinction was amazing! We highly recommend using East Coast Entertainment.

We had Modern Luxe play our wedding a few weeks ago, and I'm so glad they did! They were phenomenal! I have had so many people ask who they were and where we found them. I think we had one of their first gigs with the horn section who also killed it! We were referred from Kaitlin at ECE and couldn't be more grateful. Modern Luxe totally made our reception amazing! I 100% recommend them to anyone looking for a great band for any event. They were down to earth, easy to work with and did a great job not only learning new songs for us but also reading the crowd and picking the right songs all night long.

Working with Ellie was great from our inquiry to the contract to the actual event. The band we hired was fabulous and exceeded our expectations! Great experience.

Our experience with East Coast Entertainment could not have been more wonderful! Our agent, Chris McClure, was always prompt in his communication. The band, Black & Blue Experience, was perfect for our occasion. I've been to too many weddings where the band makes it about themselves (i.e. stopping the music for way too long during "Shout"). This band knows how to engage an audience without distracting from the celebration. They perform, entertain, and captain the party in the most professional way I've ever seen. Thank you, ECE!

Diverse Groove was exactly what we needed to make our day extra special. Hank from East coast entertainment and all of the members of the band were so nice and accommodating. All of our guests loved the music and danced the night away! They played a great variety that kept everyone having fun. We wanted a big celebration and with the help of Diverse Groove that is exactly what we got!!

I highly recommend using EastCoast Entertainment! We worked with Ellie out of the Charlotte office and she was amazing. We had a freak blizzard the day of the wedding and some of the roads were not passable. Ellie worked closely with my mom to make sure we would have quality entertainment for our reception. Luckily, the band we had contracted with (The Royal Suits) were able to make it to the resort. They were incredible! They will get your crowd up and dancing and create an unforgettable night! Great company and outstanding band!

Not only are they first class entertainers with incredible talent, they have exceptional customer service. I wish we had another wedding to plan!

We loved working with ECE Entertainment to book our band for our January wedding. They were very responsive to emails, and were great with suggesting bands that fit our price point and the music style we were looking for. We ended up choosing TFC Band, and could not have been happier with them!! All of guests thought they were FANTASTIC, and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a fabulous, upbeat band that kept all of our guests dancing all night long.

We had Papa Sol and they exceeded all expectations!!! They brought so much energy and we received so many compliments. Amazing!

Legacy was our first choice for our wedding band! They were so easy to work with and really listened to what we were looking for. The dance floor was packed all night! We had so much fun and would definitely recommend them to anyone!

Surround Sound is an amazing band! They really know how to get the party started. Zack was really helpful while planning the reception for my bride and groom. He made sure they were happy from the start and made it a night that everyone will remember.

ECE was so easy to work with. They represent the top bands. We hired the JAVA BAND for a wedding reception and danced the night away. Very happy we worked through ECE to find JAVA.

We used ECE to book our band. ECE was easy to work with but I really didn't talk with him much. After it was booked I worked directly with the band: The Royal Suits-- they were FABULOUS!!! It's been 2 months and everyone is STILL talking about our band. At the end of their set, all of our guests were cheering for them to do "ONE MORE SONG!" I am sure they will go up in price but they are WELL WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!

Blue Label Band was AMAZING at our wedding. They played a great variety of music, were very professional and easy to work with. Everyone was raving about the band!

Blue Label (Jefe) was fantastic! My wedding was on 11/5/17 and my now husband and I both went to the University of Delaware where we would see Jefe every Tuesday night at Deer Park. On a whim we contacted Blue Label to see if they were available. Sure enough we booked them and couldn't be happier. We had a dilemma with our venue and Blue Label was able to work with us easily. Laura was our point person and she is amazing. All of our friends and family keep saying how great the band was. We were up and dancing the whole night. Blue Label worked with us to include the Hora and other traditional Jewish pieces that we wanted for our ceremony, cocktail and reception. Highly recommend Blue Label! They are well priced compared to other bands and overall, just fantastic people with so much energy. No need to look any further, book Blue Label! <3 them all! Thank you for making our wedding day so special and so perfect.

I loved our band. We had In The Pocket as our band for our wedding and they were incredible. The group was always very professional in responding to emails and timely in their responses. They kept our guests entertained and played a wide array of music for us. They knew how to keep our guests entertained and when to play the slower songs versus fast songs. I had so many people compliment us on our band and tell us how wonderful they were. I could not have been more pleased than to have them as our band. What an incredible night of dancing and celebrating.

East Coast Entertainment was wonderful to work. They were very responsive, helpful and I could not have been happier with the band Java. They were awesome. I highly recommend to anyone getting married in this area to use ECE to find their band!

Larry Farber with East Coast was a pleasure to work with as I as the mother of the bride sought to identify a memorable band experience for my daughter's wedding at Boone Hall in Charleston. He listened to us explain the kind of experience we wanted for dinner and dancing at the Cotton Dock and then recommended a band that exceeded our wildest expectations, the Black and Blue Experience! I would never consider using anyone but East Coast (and the Black and Blue Experience). Everything was perfect.

The most amazing band! Easy to work with and they play ALL kinds of music genres! We didn't have a single person sitting when they started playing. Truly wonderful!

Great band, easy to work with!

The band exceeded all of our expectations! The ceremony songs were played perfectly and the cocktail hour was great too. They did an amazing job singing band of horses for our first dance (and that is not an easy song)! And every song they played during the reception was a hit! All age groups were on the dance floor and the dance floor was packed all night. We all wished they could have played longer! We were very happy with them and would definitely recommend them to other people!

They definitely know what they're doing! We had a great time.

My husband and I recently used EastCoast Entertainment for our wedding and contracted Big Baby Band. Not only were they extremely accommodating, the band went above and beyond and almost didn't take a break to ensure everyone was still having a good time!! They truly made the reception what it was and their energy was infectious!! I would recommend them time and time again!!!!!

To The Max was AMAZING!!! They were everything we could have hoped for and more; not only were they a dream to work with in the weeks leading up to the wedding but on the day of they brought the house down. The dance floor was packed from the start of the reception to the bitter end, to this day we’re still hearing rave reviews from our guests in reference to the band. To The Max brought the energy and the party, everything was perfect from start to finish. We could not be happier with our decision to choose To The Max for our wedding and we highly recommend booking them!

Transparent communication, talented musicians, passionate about what they do, easy to do business with. They have learned a first dance song for us and created the most positive, fun and joyful atmosphere we could have asked for. It was a pleasure to have them at our wedding.

We got married this past weekend and worked with Ellie to find the band. She recommended We Got the Beat and they were INCREDIBLE. Our dance floor was packed the entire night and our guests have been raving about them nonstop. They played a great mix of old school, classics and new hits. Couldn't recommend them enough.

ECE provided excellent customer service and communication. The band Mo' Money was exactly what we had hoped for. They were very professional and kept us dancing and entertained all night. Even the music they provided during their breaks was terrific!

For our wedding we hired American Delux (AMDLX), a band managed by EastCoast Entertainment. We originally saw them at my friends wedding, thought they were amazing and hired them from there. Throughout the entire process they were fantastic! We chose a none-traditional song for our first dance and at first were concerned the band wouldn't be willing to learn it. Honestly though, they didn't even bat an eye and played it better than the original band. Throughout the entire night they dazzled and the dance floor was never empty. We also hired them for the ceremony and cocktail hour. The guitarist for the ceremony added such a beautiful touch and really set the mood. And the trio for the cocktail hour were also amazing. Overall I just can't rave enough about how amazing this band was and would 100% recommend them to anyone looking to make their wedding amazing.

Our wedding day would have not been complete without the EastCoast Entertainment and the Shimmer Band!! We had previously seen Shimmer perform at a wedding my now husband and I had attended. My husband loved their performance so much that he took one of the contact cards when we left that wedding in 2016 and then we ended up booking them for our wedding this year! Hank Patterson is amazing to work with to make sure each detail and song selection is handled well in advance. The band is sounds incredible and people cannot be on the dance floor when they perform. Such a great group!!
