note the photobooth album only had 20 pages so we ran out of space quickly for guests to be able to add their photos and notes. Our disappointments mostly fall on our specific DJ, Josuel. He was a no-show for two of our meetings because he slept through them. This is really hard when you’re already coordinating your work schedules with your fiancé to make these meetings work without using PTO, and than just to not have him start the zoom TWICE. Also he played the wrong version of our first dance, it was the right song name and right artist but it was not the acoustic version, and considering the app had the exact song we wanted this shouldn’t have happened. Overall, even with those mis-steps we had a beautiful Wedding, and an amazing time!! Our guests still compliment the music played that night.

fall through after charging a crazy price. It was exhausting. Our venue, The Park Savoy, recommended a short list of professionals they trust. One of them was EMG . That recommendation changed everything. From our first conversation with Michael at EMG, we felt calm. His communication was clear. His presentation was professional. He listened. He gave us options. He guided us without pressure. We knew we were in safe hands. EMG introduced us to a few bands. We chose Electric Boulevard, because we wanted energy, variety, and range. Different styles. Different eras. Music for every age group. Then we spoke with Lavelle. One phone call was all it took. He is a true entertainer. Confident. Organized. Sharp. He understood our vision immediately and took ownership of every moving part. Lavelle and his team coordinated everything. The string quartet in the chapel. Lighting and sound. Timing and flow. Irish dancers and their entrance. Dance floor setup. All of it. The management team stepped in when we needed to cover and protect the dance floor for the Irish dancers. They handled every detail without hesitation. They removed stress so we could focus on the day itself. The result was unreal. Lavelle and the band had over 220 guests on the dance floor all night. Every age group. No gaps. No drop in energy. Pure momentum from start to finish. If you are reading this and feel anxious about choosing a band or entertainment company, stop searching. You and your guests will be taken care of from start to finish. Thank you for making our wedding unforgettable. Melissa and Duff

ob in every way, from MCing the night to putting on an absolute nonstop dance party he killed it. We got countless compliments about how good the music was both during and after the wedding. Not only was the song selection great, but he perfectly transitioned the songs and remixed them when needed to keep the energy flowing from one moment to the next. Furthermore every small detail that we cared about, from lowering the volume during dinner to where we wanted to start our first dance he paid attention to and executed perfectly. He was also a delight to work with. We also hired a keyboardist through EMG to play during the ceremony and cocktail hour. They did a fantastic job as well, I’m very impressed with how full the music sounded with just one person. I can’t say I know much about playing piano but friends of mine who do said they thought he was fantastic. Lastly we hired EMG for our lighting and they did a great job with this as well. All together I’m very happy we worked with them and can’t recommend them enough!

eception. We also had our photobooth & lighting through EMG! I don't even know where to begin as everything from start to finish was so seamless. In particular, Lavell (Electric Boulevard Band Leader) & the Electric Boulevard artists are truly masters of their craft. My husband and I were EXTREMELY picky about who we chose to perform at our wedding, as we wanted very specific types of music (not your usual, typical wedding songs). Not only did Lavell listen to us repeat this request multiple times and make us feel heard, but man did they deliver! The set list was EXACTLY what we were looking for. We did not stop dancing all night, and our guests cannot stop talking about how incredible the band was. We were beyond thrilled with their performance. I attempted to block them from leaving at the end of the night (lol) because I didn't want them to stop playing!! Truly unbelievable artists. I would recommend EMG, and in particular Electric Boulevard to anyone planning their wedding and looking for a group of incredible, classy, true musicians & performers. On top of that, they are fabulous human beings and were so understanding/adaptable with a minor family emergency happening on our wedding day. We couldn't have asked for anything more in the entertainment company for our wedding day!

h.

anted and executed it perfectly. He was very good at reading the room and whenever he noticed the dance floor emptying out he would switch things up. My husband and I love to dance at weddings. A packed and energetic dance floor all night was the most important thing to us and Jason gave us just that. We already have engaged and soon to be engaged friends asking for his name for their weddings, so I’m sure this is not the last time we’ll see him. Thank you EMG for helping to give us the best party we ever could’ve asked for!

t was fantastic. They aren’t a gimmicky large DJ company and run an amazing business. The app was my absolute favorite part of this experience because I had previously been keeping everything in my Iphone notes app. Having a location to put each piece of info with optional notes and your DJ having a direct connection to it is flawless. After we signed our contract we were connected with Travis as our DJ. Travissssss. Absolutely incredible night from the ceremony to the reception he crushed it. (He even handled a 2 minute ceremony like an absolute boss with a seamless transition to cocktail hour) From our first meeting with him, we knew we were all going to get along well, being into the same music and laughing about the same things, it was good vibes all around. Everyone kept making fun of me because Travis kept asking my opinion and I’d be like “yeah, whatever you want, you pick, I trust you” and would laugh because I just trusted his opinion wholeheartedly. Now let me tell you, he did NOT MISS ONCE!!! So many times I wanted to say “I love this song” and it was a song not on my list, pulled from a long lost archive of my brain. He nailed this.

and added on the trumpet, sax, drums and electric guitar. Just wow! The energy, talent, and seamless flow between live music and DJ sets made the entire night unforgettable. The musicians were incredible — the live instruments added so much depth and excitement and DJ John kept the dance floor packed from start to finish. Our guest have not stopped calling and texting, this was truly such an amazing performance and experience for all. We also did uplighting that made our tent look candlelit and had the social booth. Amazing additions. What truly impressed us was their ability to read the crowd and create the perfect balance of moments: fun and high-energy when it was time to party, and heartfelt and intimate when it mattered most. They worked closely with us ahead of time to understand our style, and then brought it to life in a way that exceeded every expectation. The Vibo app is everything! The ability to review/change/interact with your team before hand is a game changer! I said it once and I’ll say it again, guests are still telling us how amazing the music was — it really was one of the major highlights of our wedding. If you’re looking for a team that’s professional, unbelievably talented, and genuinely passionate about making your night extraordinary, EMG but especially DJ John Garcia is it. Just book them!

he way through. Their unique blend of both DJ mixes with live instruments was super cool live. We loved having the saxophonist on the dance floor with us. We also hired the mirror photo booth, which was also a hit. Our guests love using the it so much, we had a few stragglers for sitting down for dinner! Definitely recommend working with EMG, they made the whole wedding experience, from the planning to the big day, fun and easy.

o meet with our DJ Jony beforehand which was very helpful to go over all the day-of specifics. We absolutely LOVED having Jony as our DJ. We had the best, most fun night and our dance floor was packed all night thanks to him. We also loved having the addition of the sax and percussionist to make the night even more lively. We also had a photo booth which was a huge hit, and our attendant, Nicole, helped everything run extremely smoothly. We highly recommend working with EMG for your wedding to have an awesome and fun night!!

t and kept everyone dancing all night long. We also had the sax play during cocktail hour which was the perfect vibe. Not only is EMG an amazing DJ/entertainment company, but after we signed on with them we got access to a bunch of discounts for vendors they partner with, which also was so helpful and convenient down the line! We used their vendor connections discounts to book my makeup, our travel agent, and our wedding invitations. I am definitely proud to say I am an EMG Bride!

g process and how easy it was. We could even specify things like cutting our first dance short, who was giving speeches, etc. It was so organized - I’m type A so I was obsessed with that. Michael was our DJ and he was so awesome! He used my playlist and added in some other stuff and was able to seamlessly get people on the dance floor all night. He was amazing and everyone raved about him. I couldn’t be happier that we got him. If you can ask for him - totally do it! He’s great! We also did warm up lighting and I’m really glad we did! When the sun set the venue was just so warm and beautiful.

ent we booked with EMG, the experience was top-notch. Their team made everything feel seamless and exciting — we even got to attend a special night out for booked couples with live music, drinks, and giveaways (we won a raffle!). It immediately set the tone for how fun and professional this company is. As our big day approached, we had two planning calls with Jason, and he was a total hype man — he got us so pumped and confident that the music was going to be phenomenal... and it absolutely was. On the day of the wedding, Riverside (sax, guitar, drums) and Jason delivered a flawless, high-energy performance. Every transition was smooth, every set was perfectly curated, and the vibes were impeccable all night long! SOOOOO MANY guests have told us it was the best music they’ve ever heard at a wedding — seriously, people are still raving about it! We are beyond grateful to Jason, Riverside, and the entire EMG team for making our day feel so special and for creating a party we'll never forget. BOOK THEM — you will not regret it!

ssionist, and saxophone player, and each one brought their own magic to the celebration. Michael, the owner, was our MC and kept everything running smoothly while hyping up the crowd in all the right moments. The saxophone player was a total hit—dancing with the group, weaving through the crowd, and creating such a fun, electric atmosphere. I can’t even count how many guests came up to tell me how much they loved him! The percussionist was also incredible and even gave me a “main character” moment on the drums, which I’ll never forget. It was such a unique and personal touch that made the night feel even more special. We couldn’t recommend EMG more. Their talent, energy, and ability to read the room were unmatched. They truly helped make our wedding the party of a lifetime!

eryone knows how important music is to a wedding, and Travis absolutely delivered — our dance floor was packed the entire night. I’ve truly never seen anything like it! We also added a live piano player for cocktail hour and booked the photo booth, which were both huge hits with our guests. Since the wedding, the music has been all anyone can talk about. To quote my grandpa, “You set a high mark for the next wedding to beat.” Not a single person was sitting — the energy was electric from start to finish. Travis was incredible to work with: professional, reliable, and just so talented. Thank you, EMG, for making our night completely unforgettable!

al—he had a perfect balance of professionalism and energy, keeping everything running smoothly while creating an atmosphere that was both elegant and fun. We were recommended to Elegant Music Group by our venue, and it was clear why—they are experts in their craft and know exactly how to read the crowd. Tommy kept the dance floor packed all night long, and the vibe was exactly what we had hoped for—sophisticated, but with a lively, fun energy. For cocktail hour, we had the pleasure of listening to a talented sax player and guitarist, which added a beautiful touch to the evening. Then, later on, the addition of a drum player really took things to the next level. Every piece of the performance was perfectly tailored to our vision for the day. If you're looking for a seamless blend of elegance and fun that will keep your guests dancing, we highly recommend Elegant Music Group and Tommy. They truly made our wedding unforgettable!

s the best I've ever seen and double checked all songs we wanted played and the pronunciation of all names. EMG was fabulous to work with and I couldn't recommend any other DJ more.

ng and everything ran so smoothly! We loved it!

stop raving about him! The lighting and photo booth also added a really fun, polished feel to the night. That said, we do feel it’s important to share some context. As a gay couple, we were surprised and disappointed to see EMG launch their “EMG Bride” campaign—heavily promoted on TikTok—after we had already signed our contract. The branding centers exclusively on the bride and uses language that feels outdated and exclusionary to LGBTQ+ couples, grooms, nonbinary partners, and anyone who doesn’t see themselves reflected in that very traditional mold. Had the campaign existed when we were booking vendors, we likely would have gone in a different direction. While the party itself was a blast, communication with our DJ was a little bumpy. He missed our final planning meeting, and on the wedding night, he told us dinner wouldn’t be served for another 45 minutes—which was incorrect and caused a spike of stress right before the evening’s main events. Thankfully, our coordinator was nearby and quickly cleared things up. While we’re grateful that our guests had a great time, it would be hard to recommend EMG based on our overall experience and their current marketing direction. We sincerely hope they take this feedback to heart and work toward being more inclusive of all couples moving forward.

to set the vibe and how to entertain the crowd. Jony made sure to meet with us multiple times before the wedding to ensure everything we wanted came to life. So many of our guests complimented Jony and asked for his information. I highly recommend EMG, especially Jony. Working with EMG was so easy and so much fun.

racks of our favorite songs, The Gramercy brought something for everyone. We barely left the dance floor all night–and neither did our guests! One of our favorite parts about the experience was working with Cesar. During our first meeting, Cesar got us started with EMG’s app, which really helped us plan and craft our key songs and timeline for the day. And when we met again to run through our selections, he really understood the feeling we wanted to curate, beyond ‘must-plays’ and our ‘do not play’ list. Cesar acted as our DJ and MC, and was an absolute all-star. For our ceremony and cocktail hour, we had keys, and the vibes were perfect–romantic and thoughtful, and we’re so appreciative that they played a beautiful instrumental rendition of Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros’ “Home” for our processional. As the reception kicked off, Cesar hyped us all up, announced our special moments, and kept everything stress-free, working with us and the venue to make sure all our key moments ran smoothly. He was calm, thorough, and fun to work with–Cesar and The Gramercy even helped us pull off a fast-paced photo-blitz with 20 tables. It was something that could have been a stressful experience, but The Gramercy (along with our photographers and a couple of drunk cousins) made it a really fun experience. As the night progressed, The Gramercy had everyone from our 90-year-old aunts to the pre-teen flower girls on the dance floor. They shifted from well-loved wedding classics to 90s/00s jams, working in our favorite pop-punk, alternative and hip-hop songs. The experience was complete with amazing guitar solos, soulful keys, and a badass drummer, while Cesar created mash-ups that kept us jumping until the last song–Shout–riotously played. And while the dance floor raged on, the EMG Photo Booth allowed our guests to capture some of our favorite (and funniest) pictures from the night. We were happy to learn that The Gramercy plays alongside other EMG acts a couple times a year so that newly engaged couples and married couples alike can come and hear their music. We’ll continue to rock out with them (although now that we’re an old married couple, we’ll keep the head-banging to a minimum). We would recommend them to anyone looking for an incredible band. Thank you, Gramercy!

was very easy to work with and listened to our suggestions and music preferences. We love EDM, but knew we wanted to appeal to all, so we asked to mix in early 2000s and oldies. Jony did exactly what we asked for, and everyone loved it! The dance floor was packed all night. We also added on piano for ceremony, sax for reception, and a photobooth. The piano songs we chose were all covers, and they were perfect. The sax was such a fun addition and everyone loved it. The photobooth was a hit and it was really fun to get an album with notes from our guests afterwards. The communication and process with EMG was seamless and we can’t recommend them enough!

heir app to the details of lighting, special moments, and more, we are all thoroughly impressed! The music was the #1 thing we wanted to focus on and it was a huge hit! I strongly recommend having EMG as your entertainment for your special event or wedding. Their attention to detail is what made this part of our wedding fun and standout!

d drinks, and good music - it will be a great time.” But boy is there a difference between “good music” and excellent entertainment. It brought our wedding from a “great time” to an unforgettable time - for not just us, but for our guests. It’s been a month since our wedding, and our guests are still writing us raving about how much fun they had and how amazing our band was. Leading up the wedding, Lavell made us feel calm and confident in the party we were planning. He was detail oriented, full of energy, and willing to talk through every question and thought I had (there were many). Lavell was patient with me. We had a unique taste in music and Lavell and the band were able to curate the most amazing lineup of songs for the night, everyone was on the dance floor. If you are debating in, take this review as a sign to book Electric Boulevard. I promise you they will not disappoint. You will leave your wedding in awe of the time you had. Best decision ever.

tive to what your needs were & honest about what services would be best. During our cocktail hour, we did keys & a sax-- absolutely tremendous for classy Sinatra vibes! For reception, we had a DJ (Jony) and a sax and trumpet on the dancefloor all night. This was the PERFECT hybrid situation! Jony was so amazing to work with. We had our last meeting with him the week of our wedding, which was great and allowed us to feel confident he was going to deliver what we wanted. He had legit ALL of our guests on the dancefloor the entire night. Everyone truly had so much fun because he read the room & played the music accordingly, based on our playlist, too. The sax & trumpet players were such an elegant touch, our guests loved it. The best part of EMG is the app they use for you to add all songs, notes, etc. for your entire day. It made the process seamless.

ir app, we got so many compliments from friends and family how much fun they had. the dance floor was packed all night. Jason hit the right balance between music for the older crowd and the younger crowd. Jason was also on the mike the perfect amount. he didnt miss any of the annoucements we requested but also didnt talk too much and kept the music going. We also added on the string duo + keys for our ceremony and cocktail hour which we are so happy we did. it made our ceremony that much more beautiful and intimate and we got so many compliments on the live music too. thank you EMG! would recommend to anyone to use this company!

e loved having the live music for the ceremony, it made the songs we picked really special for us. Bryan was our DJ and he absolutely crushed it! He was very professional and enthusiastic. Our dance floor was packed all night. We wanted a blend of 80s/90s/pop punk and he totally got what we were going for. Guests are still telling us how much fun they had dancing all night. The electric guitarist that played at the reception was good, but didn't get into or interact with the crowd, which I expected. It didn't change the vibe of the dance floor, but I would've preferred he was more involved. Overall, we’re very happy with EMG!

and everything in between so the music was exactly what we wanted. Our DJ, Matty G, was so much fun. His enthusiasm was contagious and he did a great job reading the room. I rarely left the dance floor! Our ceremony/cocktail hour musicians were also absolutely fantastic. We had the string duo + keys and their arrangements were gorgeous. Overall, we were so happy with EMG’s services and professionalism.

ir, which affirmed our decision to go with EMG. Our DJ, Shawn, was incredible. He understood the vibe we were going for immediately. Shawn was very attentive to us on our wedding day and went above and beyond as a DJ. He even captured great footage of our day! We decided to hire a saxophone player relatively last minute, and Justin did not disappoint. He and Shawn kept our dance floor alive all night. We cannot recommend the EMG family enough.

y. He kept us informed of how our night would go and we appreciated that immensely. We were a little more unique as we wanted some video game music for our ceremony and our intro, but that was no problem at all! We hired violinists and harpist for our ceremony, jazz trio for our cocktail hour, and for the reception a DJ and Cityscape and the Park Avenue Horns, and they were all SO fun!!! My guests couldn't stop raving about the energy the band radiated and how engaging they were. We loved how they came onto the dance floor throughout the night to sing with guests! They even sang our First Dance song and it made my husband and I cry... absolutely hire EMG, they will keep your guests on the floor all night!! You can tell they absolutely love what they do. I also HIGHLY recommend getting the Air Photo Booth; that was a HIT at our wedding, it was crowded all night and you even get a guest book that guests can sign. Truly our best wedding investment!! We love EMG!

for us we won the raffle and got a free photo booth station. While EMG themselves are an amazingly ran company with a cool group running it, Rob our DJ was really the highlight! We hired him to do the music for our reception where we customized our wedding dance song and he nailed it. We communicated to him that we our reception will be mostly of our friends and as a result want music that isn’t played on repeat at weddings. Myself as the bride wouldn’t get off the dance floor the whole night! Rob is an incredible DJ, incredibly professional and overall great personality to be the MC. Feel so lucky that we found EMG and were assigned him. Shortly after our wedding I recommended him to do my coworkers wedding. Thank you again Rob for making it such a memorable evening!

omplete! Communication was quick & easy.

how phenomenal this band was. They were absolutely spectacular! Best wedding band I have ever seen! The energy, excitement and music was fantastic and they brought that level the entire night. Each song they played only got better. After their first set of the night you looked around the room and just saw jaws on the floor for how amazing of a performance it was and it only got better. This is no ordinary wedding band. They are the most professional and talented group of individuals. Each song they played was unique, engaging and kept us on the dance floor the entire night. It was the perfect mix and had something for everyone! This band loves what they do and you can tell almost immediately. Each performer and band member pours their heart into the performance guaranteeing an amazing night. We are so lucky we found this band! I could not have imagined our wedding day without them! They made our day so special and memorable. I am still in awe for how fantastic they were. From the amazing singers whos voices captured the guests, to the horns who engaged the audience and the guitars who absolutely killed it! We were dancing the entire night! Leading up to our wedding, Michael, was so easy to work with. He took the time to listen and explain the night making it feel so tailored to who we were as a couple and what we wanted the night to feel like. He also was so professional during our wedding ensuring the bridal party was lined up, knew what to do and how to make the night flow so perfectly! If you are looking for a wedding band look no further. I could not recommend them enough. If you want people on the dance floor all night book this band! if you want the most memorable night that people will talk about for a long time book this band! For any bride and groom looking for a band that kills every song book this band! They were the best decision we made to make our wedding day the most special and spectacular day that we will remember forever.

finish, they kept the energy up and made sure the music was exactly what we wanted. They were incredibly interactive with our guests, which really added to the fun. It wasn’t just background music—it was a key part of the celebration, and everyone felt engaged. They played every song we requested perfectly and seamlessly filled in with other tracks that hit the mood exactly right. The vibe was always on point, and we had guests commenting that it was the best wedding music they had ever experienced. Beyond their talent, they were also so easy to work with. The whole process was super streamlined, from submitting song requests and details through their app to coordinating with the venue. They were professional, responsive, and just an absolute joy to work with. One highlight was when they played "Shipping up to Boston" and all of the Boston College alumni went crazy on the dance floor! We had the best time, and the music made the night unforgettable. We can’t thank The Gramercy enough for helping us create such an incredible celebration!

, we had keys and sax for our cocktail hour, which created the perfect atmosphere for our guests. For our reception, we had a hybrid setup with Tom as our DJ and keys, sax, and drums. What a perfect combination! The live musicians were such a hit with our guests and elevated the entire experience. We also used the interior uplighting, digital seating chart, dance floor lights, after the final tone, and photobooth. Working with EMG is a guarantee of a perfectly executed experience and your guests will be on the dancefloor all night long! Can't express my gratitude enough to the entire EMG team for the professionalism, execution, and responsiveness throughout the entire experience. I am proud to say that I am an EMG Bride!

r primary point person from Riverside and he was really fun and easy to work with - he made sure all of our "must plays" were played that evening and did an incredible job keeping the fun going all night through the after party. Highly recommend!

se. We also had a planning meeting with Bryan a few weeks before the wedding, and had mentioned that we had heard a remix of Shivers by Ed Sheeran / Kiss Me Thru the Phone by Soulja Boy at a bar a long time ago but could not find it online anywhere. Bryan said he'd try to see if he could find it for our wedding. Not only did Bryan play this remix during our reception, but he told us afterwards that he made it himself and gave us a flash drive / email copy of the song. My husband said it was his favorite wedding gift! Clearly, EMG goes above and beyond for their clients. Our guests could not stop talking about how beautiful the string quartet was, and how fun the DJ was. We highly recommend booking EMG for your wedding!

the music selection and Matty really brought all the genres and songs requested together in such a great way! I also had a photobooth through EMG and the pictures came out amazing, it was a hit! I cant recommend him and the rest of the team at EMG enough.

station. Roderick went above and beyond to make sure everything was going perfectly throughout the night. EMG is very easy to work with, both before, leading up to, and during the wedding. The team truly surpassed out expectations and helped make our wedding day unforgettable!

hat - he was AMAZING. We met with Jony a couple of times leading up to the wedding and he understood our vision/vibe from the first meeting and the playlist that he curated could not have been better. Some of our guest have even asked us for the playlist! Our dancefloor was packed the entire night and we had a blast.

ional. We appreciated the attention to detail that is given using the VIBO app to help ensure all aspects of the reception were covered in terms of music, announcements, and timeline. The violinist did a great job during cocktail hour playing acoustic versions of Ed Sheeran, Luke Combs, etc. Unfortunately, EMG would only supply a speaker to play the music outside as well for extra cost. Travis was our DJ and we felt he did a good job keeping people engaged and played a good variety of songs. Leading up to the wedding Travis met with us twice to get a sense of our music taste and work on timelines for the reception. Overall, we had a great experience with EMG!

We have still been getting tons of compliments on how amazing the band was - everyone was dancing the entire time. Michael was amazing and so accomodating with our requests and he truly knew exactly what we wanted and made the night amazing! Every single person in the band was incredible and got out on the dance floor with the guests! I cannot recommend them enough!!

e also read the crowd on the dance floor. Our dance floor was always full of people dancing and enjoying. He always was very detailed with the song selections I had selected. I would love to use Frank again for future events.

We received so many compliments from our guests about the music and overall vibe. He also made the entire process leading up to the wedding so easy and stress free. Highly recommend for any special event!
