What is the story behind Groove Maestro?

Groove Maestro started with a simple question.. why choose between a great DJ and live music when you can have both?

I’m Matt Dolliver, a professional saxophonist, pianist, DJ, and the founder of Groove Maestro. After years of performing everywhere from weddings and private events to clubs, festivals, and corporate functions, I realized that the moments people remembered most weren’t just the songs .. they were the surprises. A saxophone solo in the middle of a packed dance floor. A first dance that felt completely personal. A cocktail hour that felt like live music instead of background noise.

Today, I provide a modern entertainment experience that combines professional DJ services with live saxophone, giving couples and clients the best of both worlds.

Just as important as the music is the presentation. My DJ setup is intentionally sleek, clean, and compact, designed to complement your venue rather than take it over. No bulky booths or distracting equipment - just a polished, professional look that fits everything from rustic barns to luxury ballrooms.

Beyond the music, I offer premium sound systems for ceremonies and cocktail hours, wireless microphones for officiants and speeches, lighting packages, and enhancements that help transform your reception into an unforgettable experience. As Groove Maestro continues to grow, I’ll be adding even more upgrades and production options so couples can create an entertainment package that fits their vision perfectly.

Above all, I believe your entertainment should feel personal. I take the time to get to know every couple, understand the atmosphere they’re looking for, and build a soundtrack that reflects them and not just a generic wedding playlist.

I aim to please.. We will keep the planning process easy, make your guests feel like part of the celebration, and make sure your wedding is a hit amongst your loved ones for years to come.

Groove Maestro is a wedding DJ and musician based in Charlotte, Vermont.

The BEST DJ We Could Have Had for Newport, RI Wedding!

We honestly cannot say enough amazing things about our wedding DJ! From start to finish, he was absolutely incredible. He was extremely responsive throughout the entire planning process, always quick to answer questions and make sure everything was taken care of. That level of communication made a huge difference and gave us so much confidence going into our big day.

But when it came time for the wedding, he absolutely BLEW US AWAY! He completely lit up the dance floor and kept the energy going all night long. Our guests had an absolute blast, and the dance floor was the place to be! His ability to read the crowd, keep everyone engaged, and create such an incredible atmosphere made our reception everything we could have hoped for and MORE.

And his saxophone skills?! Absolutely UNREAL! Having a DJ who can also play the saxophone at that level takes the entire experience to another level. It brought such a unique, exciting, and unforgettable element to our wedding that our guests will be talking about for a long time.

Your wedding day goes by in the blink of an eye, and having someone who can create such an incredible atmosphere and make those moments even more special is priceless. He absolutely delivered in every way possible. If you're getting married in Newport or anywhere in Rhode Island, DO NOT HESITATE TO BOOK HIM! You will not regret it.

We are so grateful we chose him to be part of our special day. If we could do it all over again, we would choose him a thousand times over. An absolute professional, an incredibly talented musician, and an all-around amazing DJ. If you're looking for a DJ who will take your wedding to the next level and keep your dance floor packed, this is your guy! 10/10!

Danced all night, and then some!

Matt from Groove Maestro was awesome! He DJ'd and played saxophone, and it was so much fun. Everybody loved him, and we danced all night.

What really stood out was how he honored our wishes until the very end, and then went above and beyond: he moved all of his equipment over to a neighboring bar to put on a great after party. We cannot recommend him enough!

HIRE The Groove Maestro NOW - The best "One Man Band"

I found Matt from his post in a Vermont Wedding Vendors Facebook group and after our first conversation we already knew he was gonna knock it out of the park for us. We got many videos of him playing saxophone of songs we were requesting, constant quick communication whenever we needed and was always willing to help. He played the instrumental piano version of two very important songs for us at the ceremony as well as made sure our mic was perfect for our officiant. He even created a playlist for our cocktail hour and adjusted our first dance song so we could hear the beats clearly. Our dance floor was ELECTRIC from 7:30-11pm. He read the room so well, played all the hits and even let my friend’s husband sing American pie to break up the dancing. It felt like he was another friend at our wedding who we just happened to hire to DJ and play saxophone. He was a huge hit everyone loved when he came out on the dance floor with the Sax. Multiple people have told me that was the best dance floor they seen and I attribute that to Matt. I would recommend him to any couple who wants an amazing dance floor, a very attentive knows what he’s doing DJ and someone to create the most amazing energy. Matt you were the MVP of our reception and we hope to see you up at Black Mountain this winter.

Best wedding DJ

Matt was amazing! Would 100% recommend. I told him that I wanted it to feel like a club and he delivered. It was hard for everyone to leave the dance floor. The saxophone was an amazing addition and my guests loved it. We also did a silent disco due to noise restrictions and Matt stayed and set up all the equipment, passed them out to ensure everyone had headphones and continued to DJ for the set. We have heard from many guests that it was the best music they have seen at a wedding. He also took videos and sent them the next day. 10/10 would recommend

Saxophone Legend

I can’t even begin to explain how perfect Matt was from the VERY beginning of the inquiry process to the end of the wedding night. Communication is top tier. His response time in responding to emails is so quick which is a must when you’re planning a wedding and trying to coordinate with a bunch of different vendors. The day of the wedding he was on time and had GREAT equipment. Speakers and mics during ceremony were perfect. Speakers during reception were loud and so clear. He got a list beforehand of artists we liked and he killed the playlist. Cocktail hour was more chill, relaxed, music and then by the end of the night things were CRAZY in the best most fun way. We really didn’t give much guidance on music- he just did a great job nailing every genre we wanted. We can not forget about his saxophone skills. This is an added service but an absolute must. He would come out on the dance floor and play with different songs and work the crowd sooooo well. Everyone came up to us and said how amazing he was and what an awesome touch to the reception he was. The last thing I want to mention, he had us include a list of “Do Not Play” songs and we had a lot (lol). When people would request them he respected what we wanted and stuck to the music we had in mind. This was huge to us. I was planning this wedding from Texas and Matt made the process so easy and smooth. He made our day so incredibly fun. HIGHLY recommend.
