I am so glad we chose to use Full Swing Sound for our wedding day! We chose to use their services for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, and every single aspect was spot ...
on. Our ceremony string trio was elegant and sounded incredible, our cocktail hour was light and relaxing with the jazz duo, and our reception was SO MUCH FUN with our DJ. Communication was easy and clear every step of the way, and I couldn't recommend Full Swing Sound highly enough. You won't be disappointed.

J so this was the perfect option. I didn't have to worry about anything related to music on the day off, since I trusted Jim, which was a huge plus! The ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception music were all perfect. I could tell that he "got" my vision, and the live musicians were extremely talented.
Cannot say enough good things about Full Swing Sound! My husband and I originally decided to use them pre-covid and ended up needing to reschedule. They were so kind and so flexibl...
e in allowing us to do so, and luckily were still available for our rescheduled date. We had a string duo for cocktail hour and Jim DJed for us after that. We told him that we love to dance and that we wanted to keep the dance floor full. Even with a small wedding, he managed to do just that! We got so many compliments about the variety of music and that he managed to keep things flowing without making anything feel forced. I want to have another party so we can use these guys again!!
My wife and I currently live in Philadelphia, but had our wedding back in hometown Buffalo, which we thought would make for some tricky planning. However, as soon as we found Full ...
Swing Sound, Jim and Matt were not only extremely helpful in answering any questions we had, but they guided us through the music process to ensure a stress-free wedding! We went with the band and DJ package and could not be happier with how the night went. Chris was our DJ, and while we gave him a selection of songs we wanted to here, he was the master of ceremonies, and knew exactly how to get people on the dance floor. The end result was a room full of happy faces, with all ages in full sweat from dancing so hard. EXCELLENT NIGHT and EXCELLENT DJ/BAND for your wedding.
We had a great experience working with Full Swing Sound as our wedding DJ. We selected them because we wanted live music during our cocktail hour and then a DJ for dancing later on...
. They were really easy to work with and helped make the wedding planning process as least stressful as possible. They are very organized and were able to accommodate all of our requests! We were able to meet with them in person prior to our event which I appreciated; I like being able to put a face to the name and make the experience more personable! We are really happy that we selected Full Swing Sound and would recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding DJ and/or talented musicians to play for any part of their wedding festivities (cocktail hour or ceremony).
I can’t say enough about how great Full Swing Sound was. We looked for a long time to find the right DJ, and after we with with Jim we knew we were in good hands. He was incredib...
ly helpful in the planning process, and gave great advice. The night of our wedding, we got soooo many compliments from the guests about how good the music was. We also had the photobooth, which was a big hit with everyone. They really exceeded my expectations, and I strongly encourage anyone to hire them for their wedding! Thank you!
My husband and I went out on a limb and booked full swing sound without actually meeting them. We saw they had good reviews, they had everything we were looking for so we took the ...
chance and boy are we extremely happy we did! These guys were amazing!! They were so easy to work with and very responsive to phone calls and emails, they really make the entire process very easy. We had the 2 piece band for our ceremony and hor d'oeuvres. They asked me what songs I wanted for everything so I picked them and they had no issues with anything. Every song that we picked was perfect and sounded amazing. DJ Jim was great and had more people than I expected on the dance floor all night! We had the photo booth which was a huge hit with our guest and the uplighting was perfect they even did a personalized monogram lighting for us! I can't say enough good things about Matt and Jim. I highly recommend them to everyone!
After a look of research, my fiance and I went with Full Swing Sound for our wedding, and honestly it was the best decision we made for the whole wedding. I've been to my fair sha...
re of weddings and had pretty strong ideas of what i wanted for our entertainment. The best thing about Full Swing Sound was that we were able to have musicians for our cocktail hour and also dance music as well. We got so many compliments about it, and the whole night was just perfect. They were really professional and made the process really easy for us. Jim did a great job of incorporating my music selections, and everyone had an amazing time. They were so great, and I was so happy with their service.
Full Swing Sound was INCREDIBLE! Jim was so easy to work with, from booking to talking about our vision of the wedding, and the day of. Our venue had a lot going on - the dance flo...
or wasn't the main focus of the reception, but Jim did a great job of getting guests dancing and staying on the floor. We loved the music - he did a great job of making sure it was what we wanted and all of our guests were raving about it. Thank you Jim!!
Full Swing Sound did a fantastic job! We had a live band with a singer for the reception, and it was amazing. I really liked that they let me customize the songs for the live ban...
d, and they sounded so good! We also had a deejay and that was actually my favorite part. I made it a goal to have a list of nontraditional dance music, and they worked with me to make a playlist that I absolutely loved. They were really easy to work with and exceeded all expectations! I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Great group all around! Was recommended by my friend who also used their services. The live band was perfect for what we were looking for. We had a few last minute songs my paren...
ts really wanted to hear and they were totally accommodating and did an amazing job with it. DJ did an amazing job and played all of our requests. Dance floor was filled the entire time. Was very affordable and totally worth every cent.
We were so happy with Full Swing's service, and it was overall exactly what we wanted. I come from a pretty big musical family, so the live music was really important to us. We had...
a quartet with a singer for the cocktail and dinner, and they even let my dad sit in for a couple songs! The deejay was exactly what we were hoping for. He played all of our requests and worked with us to help with the planning. I was most worried about hiring the entertainment, and I am so glad I made this decision. Highly, highly recommend!
The two piece band was great. My ring bearer was enamored with the Saxophone and they were great with him allowing him to touch it. He was also thrilled with the DJ and the DJ let ...
him pick a song and wear the head phones. Not only were they great with the kids, but there were always people on the dance floor, which is exactly what I wanted. I couldn't have asked for a better DJ.
Full Swing Sound was everything we could have asked for! From beginning to end, they were wonderful. We had a four piece band for our cocktail hour because jazz music is incredib...

We chose Full Swing Sound for our wedding because we were looking for a company that could provide both live music and DJ services, and they really delivered! They were very profes...
sional, attentive, and responsive from the minute we contacted them all the way through the end of the reception. It was nice to have one point of contact for both the live music and the DJ. We had Matt and Jim play piano and sax during our cocktail hour and dinner, while DJ Jim played our song selections during the ceremony and during the reception. Guests LOVED the live music during cocktail hour and dinner -- very classy and elegant, but still fun. DJ Jim was perfect for what we wanted: he played all of our song choices for the ceremony (processional, recessional, etc.), and he played a mixture of our must-plays and songs that went over really well with our crowd. He didn't do any of that cheesy stuff where the DJ talks way too much and annoys everyone there -- he just played the music we wanted, and read the crowd to decide what would keep people on the dance floor (which was never empty). So happy we went with Full Swing!
