The Best Entertainment Company

ECE was one of the easiest vendors to work with! Sam and Mason were extremely communicative and enthusiastic when helping us book our wedding band. They made it easy and you could feel their excitement getting to help me book the Gentlemen and Their Lady. I could go on and on about the the band... my guests are still commenting on how incredible they were. They made our entire night magical and unforgettable!

Would recommend over and over!

We had the immense pleasure of including Jerad Romero’s incredibly talented guitar music during our outdoor, cocktail hour for our June 2026 wedding in Richmond, VA. From the very start, Jerad was easy to work with, incredibly considerate, and even allowed us to select a few songs that he would learn specifically for our day. He absolutely nailed it! One of the songs we requested was our parent’s first dance song- My mom came running up to me, beaming! I had guests come up to me all night saying what a beautiful touch Jerad’s music was. On top of his talent, it was also upwards of 90 degrees and fully outdoors. Jerad even stayed an extra 30 minutes to finish out our extended cocktail hour. There are no words of thanks that begin to cover his time spent with us. We are so appreciative of EastCoast Entertainment and thank you, especially, to Jerad! Our day was that much more memorable because of you!

The Best Wedding Band!

If you’re in the south eastern region you have to reach out to Big City Rythm! The best wedding band I’ve ever heard. So fun and accommodating!

Silver Bullets

The Silver Bullets were everything we could have asked for and more. As good as they sounded on their demo I thought they were even better in person. The guys were great, their energy was awesome and I think what may have impressed us the most, is not just how broad of a range of music they cover, but how well they do across different genres. And I jumped on stage with them during Friends and Low Places! That's when you know you've a great group!

It's easy to see why they are as in demand and as popular as they are. If we ever have any friends in the region looking for a great band for a wedding or other big event I'd certainly recommend them!

Uncle Jesse is the band you want for your wedding reception!

Uncle Jesse was perfect for our wedding reception on October 26, 2024! We went back and forth for a long time as to whether to go with Uncle Jesse or to hire and DJ and we are SOOO glad we went with Uncle Jesse!

My husband & I would both individually see them in Arlington before we met and then again together after we started dating. We are so thankful to have had Uncle Jesse travel down to our new home in Charlotte to perform at our wedding.

We had the BEST time & all of our guests raved about how awesome Uncle Jesse was!

A night we'll never forget!

East Coast Entertainment was wonderful to work with and took the time to help us select the right band for our wedding. We booked the Dundies and were absolutely blown away!! Their energy and engagement with our guests left everyone with a night they'll never forget. Our dream was for our reception to feel like a concert that kept our friends and family dancing all night and that's exactly what we got. We 100% recommend ECE and The Dundies for your next event!

Magical Experience with band, Good Shot Judy

In a word - dazzled. Good Shot Judy did what I dreamed of but never felt possible. Their music and charisma got my guests on the dance floor without anyone dragging them. What a vision for me to sit, finally eat something, look up and see all of my friends and family crowding the dance floor. What joy! Brett and his gang are amazing. Be sure to give them absolute creative liberty and you will not be disappointed! Good Shot Judy is perfectly responsive, charmingly professional and authentically caring. They made our wedding reception full of spontaneous joy. Thank you, Brett! And thank you, Stacy, for coordinating such a great relationship.

Professional and fun from start to finish!

Amir was FANTASTIC! He was very professional throughout the entire planning process and the day-of. We appreciate his flexibility and willingness to communicate with our venue contact as some details with our venue changed last minute. Our guests had a BLAST at our reception and Amir was definitely a major reason why. No one wanted to leave the dance floor. Amir listened to our requests, was great with our guests, and played all the right songs. Amir definitely made our reception memorable and we are so glad we went with him and ECE.

Night Years

Great band (Night Years) and great agent (Brad Strouse) Almost every comment that I have heard about the wedding references how great the band is, so I really appreciate the time and effort. We had a blast!

Amazing Experience!! 10/10 Recommend

Everything went perfect with the Dundies (through ECE) during our wedding weekend! They were an absolute hit with us and our guests, Danny's energy is unreal and unmatched! The Dundies were such a huge part of making our night be everything we wanted it to be and the dance floor was full and high energy all night long just like we wanted. 10/10 recommend to anyone that wants a lively dance floor all night long!

TFC Band and Show TFC Band and Show Wedding Bands

TFC Bands highly recommends EastCoast Entertainment. We have been exclusive with agency for 25 years. They are without question the most professional entertainment company in the industry, For weddings, they are the leading authority and are recognized throughout the industry to be the #1 source for wedding entertainment. One piece of advise, NEVER book a band directly, they will always tell you what you want to hear and very rarely can effectively judge their band versus others. The agency has always represented us well, placing us with the right clients and events that match our strengths. If we are not the right choice, the agency won't push to book, they'll offer options until they help found the best option for your big day. Most agencies are small Ma and Pa orginizations that often are in a band and really don't represent talent. Trusted resources like ECE are hard to come by
