Book them!!!

One of our daughter’s desires for her wedding day was to have beautiful live music and that is exactly what David and Jennifer provided! From the very beginning of the planning process they were easy to communicate with, professional , and the music… just beautiful! They were with us for our entire event from the ceremony through brunch and played exactly what our daughter wanted. They even went out of their way to find a piece of music that she wanted that was not in their repertoire and purchased it for the event . I would recommend DJ Celli music services to anyone looking for quality musicians! They were amazing and added such style to our wedding brunch!

DJ Celli - Oct '23 wedding

DJ Celli performed during our ceremony and cocktail hour at our wedding in October. Guests loved that they included a variety of pop and classical pieces. DJ Celli incorporated two personal touches into our ceremony, which we are still so appreciative of. They learned a piece of music that had sentimental significance, and also incorporated another musical performance into our ceremony. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone who is looking to book cello musicians for any special event!

Incredible performance!

My husband and I booked DJ Celli for our August wedding ceremony this summer. David and Jennifer were so responsive and made the booking process a breeze! They provided recommendations and were able to perform a song of our choice for the bridal processional. Having them at our ceremony made everything feel like a dream. It was perfect! I would absolutely recommend them to anyone who is looking to hire cello musicians. They are a talented duo and it was our absolute pleasure working with them.

August 5th, 2023 Wedding Ceremony

DJ Celli totally elevated our wedding ceremony! We came across them after looking up different instrumental performers for our wedding ceremony. We wanted something different and elegant. After reaching out, they responded right away and were so accommodating and kind. That goes a long way for a bride and groom planning a wedding. We knew they would be great, but we were floored with how amazing they sounded that day. They kicked off our wedding in such a beautiful way and we are forever thankful for their talent. We have received so many compliments from our family and friends on their performance and have referred them to our loved ones getting married in the future!! Thank you Jennifer and David for making our day so much more special!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
