We saw The Acoustic Generation perform at another wedding a few years ago. I knew at that moment that I had to have them at my own wedding! Matt and Liz were amazing to work with!!...
! From our initial conversations to the end of our wedding night, everything was perfect. We got so many compliments about the music from our guests during and after the wedding! They sounded great during the live performances and rocked the DJ-ing! If you're looking for live music and DJ services, STOP RIGHT HERE. You won't regret it!
We had Acoustic Generation play during our cocktail hour and out of the whole day we probably the most compliments on how fun the cocktail hour was! We have family members trying t...
o book them for future gigs and constantly checking their schedule to see if they're playing somewhere we can go see them :)
We had a specific idea of what we wanted, we went to go see Acoustic Generation at a local bar to check them out. During their break we introduced ourselves and told them what we were looking for, when they started playing again they played a set specifically geared toward what we wanted! It was amazing and we knew immediately we wanted to book them.
Matt and Linsea did a stellar job DJing and playing/singing for our wedding reception!
I had a good feeling about them when we saw their website, and truly they went above and bey...
ond our expectations. I wanted to have some live music, but a live band through the whole reception wasn’t really financially an option for us. Matt and Linsea were the perfect choice, providing live music for our cocktail hour and dinner and DJing the rest of the evening. Guests continuously came up to us and commented on how incredible they sounded (a few people asked if they had an album), and they did a fantastic job of getting everyone up and dancing and leading the evening smoothly. I can’t speak highly enough of them. They are spectacular, and they really made our wedding something special.
Matt and Linsea absolutely made our wedding the huge, amazing party that it was! They sang and played live during cocktail hour, dinner, and our first dance, and then DJ'd for the ...
rest of the night. It was the perfect combination! We were blown away by how well they were able to take our music taste into account and read the room. The dance floor was never empty, and very few people were sitting in their seats once they started playing!
Matt and I spoke a couple of times before the wedding to go over song preferences, and to answer any of my questions. He made it really simple and easy to plan. They were very flexible about how many hours they'd play, and were happy to set up outside for cocktail hour and move indoors for the rest of the night. Matt made all the bridal party introductions, toast announcements, etc. and kept the night moving with ease.
We had originally heard them play at our friends' wedding a few years ago, which was more of a quieter wedding where the music was meant to be subtle, chill and in the background - Acoustic Generation adapted their sound for this perfectly. For our wedding, on the other hand, we told them we wanted our cocktail hour to be more like a happy hour with upbeat, louder music to get the party started - they knocked it out of the park, as well, and were the life of the party! Their flexibility and ability to adapt to every style of evening speaks volumes about their talent as performers and professionals.
Matt and Linsea were essential to giving the night the perfect atmosphere. They're very easy and fun to work with - I'll be recommending them to all my friends!
Let’s be honest, music makes or breaks a wedding and I am so glad that I found Matt and Linsea. The Acoustic Generation provides both live and DJ sets for your big day and they do...
a wonderful job at both. For my wedding, Matt and Linsea played acoustic guitar and sang during the ceremony, cocktail hour and through dinner. They were kind enough to learn our musical selections for the special moments; I walked down the aisle to Magnetic Fields ‘The Book of Love’. I knew I had made the right choice in booking The Acoustic Generation when people were dancing and it was only cocktail hour. Everyone at our wedding raved about the music and how Matt and Linsea really made the wedding. There may have even been a small sign along that happened during dinner when they played Sublime! If you want to have a fun wedding I would highly recommend booking The Acoustic Generation.
I searched and searched for the perfect music for my wedding reception. I could not decide between a bad or a DJ, then I found The Acoustic Generation and they did BOTH for WAY les...
s than anyone else I looked at. They are two singers, Matt and Linsea, who play guitar and DJ. They have awesome voices and really seem to enjoy what they do. Plus they were very accommodating. They learned new songs for my first dances and played everything I wanted to hear :) They are so nice and awesome people and great performers!
Matt and Lindsey were the perfect match for our entertainment at our wedding. I watched their videos online and was in awe of Lindsey's voice. We knew we needed them! And as an add...
ed bonus they DJ too. They made our wedding! Everyone was dancing and having an awesome time. I couldn't have asked for anything more.
