Best night of my life!!

My wedding was the best night of my life. A huge part of what made it so amazing and memorable was from the first conversation with Mike I knew just from his enthusiasm, to his very easy going manner and just how he was able to take the basics of what I wanted and turned it into something so magical. Elite Entertainment definitely is a fitting name for this company because everything from personalizing our ceremony in the most amazing way and really got what we wanted and made it very fitting for us. All of our guest could not stop raving about how beautiful the ceremony was. To the reception, we wanted it to be a big party celebration and that is exactly what we got. Great with helping with song recommendations and variety of song, Mike made this whole process so much easier because I knew I could give him the information he needed and he ran with it and it was hands down the best night of our lives so far. I have nothing negative to say. To wrap this up Elite Entertainement especially Mike who was our officiant, our dj, the man who brought the excitement and I have to say the Elite boys really brought the fun and energy to the reception. Not one guest had a complaint. Everyone loved the ceremony, the reception, the music, the vibe, all of it. No one was on their phones, everyone was dancing and socializing, and I was told by many people it was one of the best weddings they have been to. I would definitely recommend Mike to be an officiant and Dj his professionalism is out of this world and he is so captivating. You can not go wrong with these guys. Also there photo booth was a huge hit with my guests and the whole wedding party.

Great wedding DJ and MC

For your wedding hire Tom from elite entertainment. We had a mix of old and young people and he made sure everyone stayed on the dance floor. He was clear and professional throughout the planning process, all the way to the end of the night. He’s a great MC as well.

We didn’t have to worry about a thing and knew the music was taken care of.

Also, if you’re on the fence about it. Just get the photo booth. It’s worth it and so much fun.

Thank you Tom!

Vinny + Sarah Wedding w/ Dave Nase

Absolutely amazing experience! Dave was super responsive and organized throughout the entire planning phase, gave us great input and recommendations for our wedding day having done other receptions at our venue, and completely crushed it with his team at Elite Entertainment on the day of.

Dave did a beautiful job with the timing and music during our ceremony, and then had everyone on the dance floor all night. We absolutely loved the experience and our guests kept saying how much fun they were having and how great the music was.

Also, a huge shout out to Alan on the Saxophone. He was out on the dance floor almost all night; our guests and us were having a blast! We had so many people tell us how awesome he was!

Thank you Dave, Alan and the team at Elite for the perfect execution and really making our wedding day amazing!

Mike & Nicole's Wedding

Working with Elite Entertainment was one of the best experiences we could have asked. Planning a wedding entirely is a big challenge all together, but Elite Entertainment made it so easy on us when it came to finding the right DJ, meeting & planning for the event, and ensuring the best customer service and performance the night of the wedding!

As a couple who are both big music fans, with a wide range of tastes and likes/dislikes, we knew hiring a DJ over a band was the way to go. When we explained to Elite we wanted a wide range of songs/music/vibes at our wedding, we landed on Barry B.

From the first meeting, we knew Barry was a seasoned pro with a wide range of music knowledge and was ready to work with us on making the night perfect! When discussing walkout songs, first dance, and the different sets, Barry was very open to our requests while also giving professional recommendations along the way. When it came to MCing the night of, Barry B came extremely prepared and always kept us in the loop on what songs/vibe were going to be played in certain sets and if we wanted to tweak anything throughout the night. Everything ended up being so perfect that we didn't need to change anything!

During the night of, and the days following our wedding, I received well over a dozen compliments from friends and family on Barry's performance. Everyone appreciated the wide range of songs he was able to play and his ability to keep the energy and vibe throughout the night!

If you are a couple with a wide range of music taste, and are in need of seasoned professionals with planning your wedding night, Elite Entertainment and Barry B are the people to go to!!

Dave 5.31.26 Dempsey Wedding

We cannot recommend Dave and the entire team at Elite Entertainment enough! From our very first conversation, they were professional, organized, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our wedding day everything we envisioned.
On the wedding day, they absolutely exceeded all expectations. Dave kept the music flowing seamlessly throughout the entire event, read the crowd perfectly, and had our dance floor packed all night long. The energy never dropped, and every transition felt effortless.
Even after the wedding, our guests continue to rave about how much fun they had and how amazing the music was. We truly believe the entertainment played a huge role in making our special day so memorable. Thank you, Dave and the Elite Entertainment crew, for helping create a celebration we'll never forget!

Life of the Party

We cannot recommend Elite Entertainment and DJ Tommy Monaco enough! From the very beginning, the entire process was smooth and stress-free. We were thrilled when we found out Tommy was available for our wedding date because we had seen him at another wedding and absolutely loved him.

Throughout the planning process, Elite Entertainment was responsive, accessible, and incredibly easy to work with. Tommy took the time to understand our vision and executed it perfectly. He struck the perfect balance between incorporating our preferences and reading the crowd to keep the energy high all night.

The music truly made the night. The dance floor was packed from start to finish, and our guests are still talking about how much fun they had. Tommy created an amazing atmosphere and played a huge role in making our wedding unforgettable.

Best wedding dj!

Working with DJ Tommy Monaco for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. Working with Elite Entertainment in general was awesome, and Tommy took it home. As a company they are communicative and professional, and have high ratings for a reason.

We were really struggling with songs for a playlist, and met with Tommy a couple weeks before the wedding and he made us feel so much better. We told him we wanted to dance the whole night. He said “I’ll follow your playlist and add songs I see fit” and we trusted him, and he delivered. Day of the wedding came, and I had people literally come up to me on the dance floor saying how good the playlist was. The floor was PACKED with guests of all ages! Best night of our lives! You will not regret booking with Elite (and Tommy)
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
