Live Wire Entertainment

t asking what was most important to us, and the answer was always, "The Band." We listened to SO many bands and there was the clear winner, which is why we chose Live Wire. I wanted everyone to leave the wedding saying how amazing the band was, and that is exactly what happened. They had a 200+ person wedding on their feet the entire night. I have never seen a room erupt the way ours did when they went into the first dance set following our first dance as husband and wife. They are also true professionals. For one of the songs, there was a glitch with the venue sound system where their mics went out. NO ONE even noticed because live wire got on the dance floor with us, we all belted the words to the Whitney Houston song playing, and the drums played their heart out. Where most bands might have froze, they excelled and made it one of the best songs of the night! Anthony was a pleasure to work with. He was collaborative and helpful with song choices and even learned a few special requests we had that were important to us and made our evening so special. I cannot end this without mentioning Chantelle and her incredible rendition of Time to Say Goodbye. CHILLS. I wish I could go back and do it all over again. They truly are the best of the best.

hey are an amazing & talented group!!

the band was! Everyone danced all night, thank you so much for the amazing performance at our wedding. I would recommend them to any and every couple!

efore our wedding. Anthony was a joy to work with, answered every question quickly, worked well with our wedding planner and kept us feeling super confident and excited about our big day. We had an 8 piece band the day of our wedding. We had Live Wire play jazz music during our cocktail hour which was a perfect way to set the tone for the evening. Live Wire even learned to play our first dance song, which turned out beautifully. The dance floor was packed the entire night, people were dancing even before dinner started. We had family members, who never dance, on the dance floor the entire night, and the next morning, telling us it was the most fun they ever had at a wedding. We had older grandparents who stayed until the last song, because the band was that good. The crowd screamed for one more song at the end of the night, and we got it, along with the lead singers coming out onto the dance floor to make the night even more memorable. I wish they could have played for 5 more hours - Live Wire was amazing and made our wedding the best day ever.

d and he was using them. We immediately started to do some research on them and spoke with Anthony. From the minute we spoke with him, we knew they would be a good choice. He was very prompt, organized, helpful, and always willing to speak with us. This was very important to us since we were never actually going to have the opportunity to meet or hear the band prior to our event. Over the next couple of weeks, we heard clips of their songs from their website and heard back from my friend after his wedding. He loved the band and was happy to hear we were thinking about using Live Wire. Shortly after, we booked with Anthony. Over the next year, I would listen to clips of them on Facebook and each video got me more and more excited for the wedding. As we got closer to the wedding, the band provided us with a song list and allowed us to be VERY detailed with exactly what we were looking for. At times, I was scared I was asking for too much or had too many requests. With Anthony and Live Wire, no task was too hard. They were able to accommodate us in every way and helped make our reception amazing. There was a party atmosphere from the start of the night. The music was fantastic, they interacted with the audience (even sang with everyone at times), and worked with us and our families on a couple specials surprises various people had planned throughout the night. On top of all the fantastic music, the group was as nice as could be and they helped make our wedding more than memorable. I forgot to mention they traveled all the way to Harrisburg, PA from New York City. I recommend Live Wire for your wedding!

get phone calls about how great they were,and its been over a month since our wedding. Our sings were so amazing and talented, and so was the band! Everyone was their feet the entire night! They had a great song selection, and even played current songs, and learned other songs for us. It made our day so special. They are worth every penny!!

e played, the first word sung we knew that they would be our band. They are all a pleasure to work with and their talent is limitless. They nailed special requested songs, making for some pretty amazing highlights. They were so interactive and got our friends involved in the set. Do yourself a favor and hire this band. You won't regret it.

t my dad said actually. The dance floor was packed the entire time, even before dinner started. My grandpa who has been ill and in a wheelchair even got out to dance. Every genre and every song was covered to perfection. They NAILED our wedding song and a couple of other specific requests we gave them! They have such a great energy and even come out onto the floor to dance with the guests and pass the mic around. This was absolutely one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. You CANNOT go wrong with LiveWire. Book early though! We booked in July 2015 for our June 2016 wedding. I will recommend them to anyone planning any event with live music- they made me wish I could be a guest at my own wedding!

ct, they engaged with the crowd, and kept everyone up and dancing the whole reception! Anthony was a pleasure to work with throughout the process, and also helped coordinate amazing lighting for our reception. We could not have been happier with our choice, thank you Live Wire!

singing when Badia slayed our first dance "make you feel my love". Clurel was like MJ reincarnated and Michael did a great Billy Joel. They memorized new songs and killed Everlong. They sung a wide variety of songs and had such great energy. They didn't blast out your ear drums either. They genuinely were happy for my new husband and I. What an amazing night thanks to them. I would recommend them to anyone in the tro-state area and beyond. A great price for such quality value.

still receiving compliments now about how great the band was. We are hoping someone we know gets married soon so that we can convince them to use Live Wire too! We would recommend them again and again!

dditional favorite songs. They were such a huge hit that we had 3 guests book them for their weddings, that should say enough! Very reasonably priced compared to other groups this size.

at weddings). The band members are so talented and were able to play so many different songs of different genres. The band is also extremely interactive and really works the crowd well. They also play music that people want to hear and they never create a lull in the dancing. The band even learned new songs for our wedding and delivered live versions of the first dance, bride and father dance, and groom and mother dance that sounded exactly like the original versions. We can't say enough about Live Wire Entertainment, and neither can our guests who described our wedding as the most fun they have ever had. Live Wire Entertainment helped make our wedding so special and perfect and helped bring non-dancers on to the dance floor the whole night. We loved working with them and are so glad they performed at our wedding! Caitlin & Tom

k with. Anthony made the whole process so easy and very comfortable. He worked with us and kept constant communication to make sure everything was exactly the way we wanted it. On the day of the wedding, the band showed up very early to setup and practice and we're ready to rock by the time the reception started. Chantel first greeted us to go over everyone's names and give instructions. She was really nice and seemed genuinely excited about the wedding. Her voice and performances were so incredible. Our guests are still talking about her ability to sing and entertain. She also honored one of our requests during the wedding to sing a specific song and it was beautiful. Jimmy sang our wedding song and nailed it. It was a song that was not on their playlist, but he definitely took the time to practice and it sounded exactly the way we wanted to hear it. Clurel started off the night with a great dance song and really got all of the energy up. Finally, a big shout out to Ashanti who really surprised us with her performances. She came out into the crowd on many occasions to get all of the guests involved in the song. She even made it a point to come up to me and my beautiful bride on multiple occasions to see how we were doing and talk with us. Ashanti was definitely a big hit with our guests. Overall, I highly recommend Livewire for your wedding reception. You will not be disappointed!!! Evan and Denese Farkas

ing a song they loved, which everyone thought was the coolest thing ever, and they interacted with everyone and our guests really liked that. Definitely worth the money!

ngs for the couple . Friends and family are still talking about how wonderful Live Wire was a month later!! I would highly recommend them for your wedding reception. You will not be disappointed. Anthony and the entire band are wonderful to work with.

re able to have them as our band for our big day!

eryone was on the dance floor after our first dance and the dance floor was full the entire night. They read the crowd and performed an ideal mixture to please everyone from Frank Sinatra during dinner into crowd pleasing dance songs as the night grew to a close. Every guest at our wedding commented on how fantastic the band was and their incredible versatility. I really couldn't have dreamed it to be any better. They really made our day special. Call them today if you are looking for a band.

emo songs online and knew they were the right pick for us and we selected the 8 piece band. I know for some, there is a hesitancy to book a band as opposed to a DJ due to the variety of songs that you want featured at your wedding. To say that Live Wire is a diverse band is an understatement- they completely blew me away with their range. Our first dance was to a Foo Fighters song (acoustic then full instrumental- PERFECTION), I danced with my Dad to a song from the Dropkick Murphys (in which a band member whipped out a freaking PICCOLO for... unbelievable!!), and we were dancing all night from everything to Rihanna to Lady Gaga to Rolling Stones to B52s to Michael Jackson and everything in between. They exceeded my expectations on so many different levels; my friends and family cannot stop talking about how amazing the music was. Nothing beats the energy of a live band at a wedding and I would recommend Live Wire again and again and again.

They are extremely reasonable in price, easy to work, and even learned extra songs for us. Their singers are amazing! We had guests recording them because they couldn't believe that it was not actually Billy Joel singing. Our dance floor was packed the entire night. We had guests dancing at their tables and outside on the terrace. The compliments continue to come in about how great our band was and how much fun our guests had!

Chantal is amazing, as is Ashanti. All night long guests were telling us how awesome the band was. In fact, a groomsman posted on facebook the next day "awesome wedding band = awesome wedding." You know that means something when a guy posts about it on facebook!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

of entertaining. All of my guests can not stop talking about how well they performed and interacted with the guests to make the night so special for us. There were a few songs we were so eager to have performed and the band learned them and were awesome at them. I would recommend them hands down to everyone.

ontract (to be fair, she still sounded great, but still...). They ignored many of the song requests that we made on the form they made us fill out before the wedding. Finally, they were difficult to get in touch with when we had questions in the weeks before the wedding. As far as our guests knew, they were a great band, but we felt a little ignored.

re worth every penny.

amazing night ! Jeff & Steph

as packed all night long. They perfectly fulfilled all my special requests and did so with a smile. They made my wedding the most fun party I have ever attended. Please do not hesitate because they won't be available for long!!!!!

bad one can absolutely break it. I literally interviewed/sent my parents to over 20+ showcases in Manhattan. Show case after Show case, we were disappointed, UNTIL Livewire. They were reasonable, not cheesey, diverse, EPIC sound and most of all TALENTED. Every single musician was exactly who we saw at the showcase. Not like an agency where you don't know who you are going to get. Anthony was not salesy, was not pushy and was exactly the opposite of every band manager out there I spoke too (Yes 20+ band managers I spoke with). He was easy going and himself. He didn't have to sell them, they sold themselves. Livewire learned songs for us. Livewire played NON STOP. Livewire played every song we asked for and more. We had a wedding at Cedar Lakes Estate and the venue said they have never worked with a band that was so easy to deal with. From start to finish there was not a single person sitting all night. PLEASE contact me for any questions as I can not express our deepest satisfaction for this band. I went with the best choice and they made our wedding; worth every moment spent trying to find the best out there. You will not be disappointed. Thank you for making our wedding the best for all 250 guests.

ormance as soon as they started playing and over a month later are still hearing how great everyone thought they were! Jimmy, Julia, Chantele, and the rest of the band are immensely talented and bring amazing energy to their performance. Working with Anthony before and during the wedding was great. He was flexible with any requests we made and so organized he made us feel as if he knew the details of our wedding like the back of his hand. We could not be more impressed or happy with Live Wire. They helped to make our wedding day perfect (and I do not use the word perfect lightly!).

ead singers were out of this world and they encored three songs because the crowd couldn't get enough of them. If you want a quality band for a great price, this is your band!

rfect and they managed to get in most, if not all, of the songs we requested that they play. My father and I did a non-traditional Father-Daughter Dance to a slow song and then transitioned into swing dancing. The band pulled off the music PERFECTLY! I could not have have asked for a more entertaining, professional and talented band!

he top. Anthony was a pleasure to work with. My guests said after, wow, you guys know how to party. Thanks to Live Wire our wedding was the party of a lifetime for sure!

y do because they were so much fun!!!! I would highly recommend them.

r met with or heard in person. Result: They were AWESOME! Even better than I could have imagined! Each and every song sounded like the the artist was right there in the room singing to us. Unlike many bands/DJ's who just play a list of songs without paying much attention to their audience, LiveWire kept the crowd going ALL NIGHT. I have received many compliments since the wedding and I'd like to send a special Thank You for taking the trip to CT and performing for us that evening. BEST. BAND. EVER.

our guests following the wedding was "your band was awesome". They did NOT stop playing from the start of the reception to the end, and made sure everyone was on their feet dancing the night away. Thanks, guys, for making our wedding day so much fun!

sked and played all our requests. The maitre d' at our venue also told us that he had not heard a band this good play at their venue, that to me was a wonderful compliment. As I bride I danced continuously throughout the reception. Live Wire truly helped us create a dream come true. There is no doubt in my mind that we would have been happier with another band. The value for the band is amazing too.

very responsive and made everything so easy and stress-free. We will always recommend Live Wire :)

singers and will keep your dance floor busy all night ---- you just found them.

song (since it wasn't on their list) and it sounded like they had put on the CD of the song - it was incredible. They have such a wide range of songs in their repertoire and have some of the best voices out there. You would be silly not to check them out if you are getting married in the NY area. High energy and an all-around great band

vendor I booked after we set our date. It was so important to us to have them play at our wedding! My husband and I never left the dance floor our entire wedding, along with the rest of our guests! Live Wire played a huge part in helping us have the best wedding! I can't even tell you how many people came up to us at our wedding to tell us how amazing the band was. People are still talking about our band and I can tell you if you book them, people will be talking about them at your wedding as well! Live wire is flexible in learning new songs for you and their prices are great compared to other bands. I normally am not a review person, but besides the band, that was how I booked many of my vendors, which is why I decided to pay it forward! Thanks Live Wire for making our day so special!

together. They were willing to learn specific songs we wanted and they had our guests dancing and having a great time on the dance floor all night. We had flute and piano for our ceremony and trumpet and piano for our cocktail hour. They did a wonderful job. Our guests are still talking about how great the band was. We were so happy with Live Wire and highly recommend them!!

music and voices! The dance floor was always full! I highly recommend them!

ive music playing. Absolutely outstanding and their prices were the best we saw. They sounded true to every song they sang and had an incredible range from all decades. LOVED them!
