I have to say, picking music for a wedding is one of the most stressful parts of planning. My husband and I went to a few bridal expos and left every one disappointed in the DJs and bands we saw. I was very specific in not hiring a "hype man" and simply someone who would keep my guests dancing without constantly yelling into the microphone. Jon DID NOT disappoint! I could go on and on about how phenomenal he was. We had him play acoustic guitar and singing during our cocktail hour and then MC with a DJ during the reception. His voice is incredible and he kept my guests dancing the entire night! We got married 2 months ago and I am still getting phone calls from friends and family asking where we found our DJ because "he was amazing!" I actually found out after the wedding that guests from another wedding at our venue heard the music from our room and crashed our wedding to dance. We wanted super simple for our music but J-Riz Entertainment has everything! I highly, highly recommend them! You will not be dissapointed.

Jon and his team were definitely the best decision my husband and I made to make our wedding day the day of our dreams! We loved the fact that they were so friendly and professional and so patient with us through all the decisions we had to make. They made us feel at ease and completly confident about how are day would go and we knew we didn't have to worry about a thing. Jon's talent is like no other and as I was walking down the eisle his voice and acoustic guitar made me feel like I was in a movie/fairytale which is exactly what I wanted. The vibe we went with was exactly what he delivered and we can't say how many people were blown away by him and his team. We would definelty recommend him to anyone looking for entertainment for their wedding/event and we would use him again in a heartbeat! -Melissa & Eric Oceanside NY

After Countless meetings with other entertainment companies we met with Jon. Immediately he understood exactly what we were looking for and made the entire planning, and decisions making process seamless. He was able to produce and deliver every single request that we made. Not only did my husband and myself enjoy the entertainment throughout the evening but Jon made sure to keep the guests totally engaged and enjoying themselves as well. Aside from the music, we also chose to use his photographer Juliet Rose Our photos were beyond perfect. She completely captured us. She was able to be everywhere and capture some of the best photos without them being staged and awkward. She was lovely, and it was a pleasure to work with her as well. I would 100% recommend this company, and am looking forward to working with Jon and Juliet in the future.

The best band that completely transformed my wedding

This band is the best wedding band ever. Our guests are still raving about how amazing J Riz is. One of our guests said "this was not only the best wedding, but the best party I've been to." Other than stipulating our first dance, father/daughter, mother/son songs, we really put the night in Jonny's hands. He is truly an expert, a professional, and worked well with our other vendors. He is extremely responsive and put us at ease. The band traveled from NY to Newport RI for our wedding almost overnight as they had a Friday evening wedding the night prior. They made it happen and brought so much energy - everyone was dancing at our wedding! They did a 90s set at the end of the night and that was far and away one of the highlights of our day. I would refer this band to absolutely everyone.

Best Band EVER!

J-Riz is THE BEST band around. Jonny is so easy to work with and he made the planning process stress-free. We ended up using 2 pieces during the ceremony, 3 during cocktail hour, and 11 during the reception. They knew exactly what to play to keep our guests on the dance floor all night and we got so many comments about how good they were. I've recommended J-Riz to all my friends!

I've used Jon for a few events and have always had an overall excellent experience. The most recent was the most important one though... My Wedding.
I was in a pinch, I had a vision and was getting a lot of push-back from the venue on what I wanted that vision to be. Not only did Jon say "absolutely, no problem", he said he'd do it himself.
I explained everything I wanted and without even blinking an eye, he picked up his guitar and started playing and giving suggestions. The relief was overwhelming. Within a 24hr period I went from almost having a bridal breakdown to having my exact vision with the owner of the band no less, right there to make sure it was done perfectly.
The day went off without a hitch and the music was amazing. I can't wait 'til the next event!!

Amazing wedding band

Hiring J-Riz Entertainment for our wedding band was one of the best decisions we made. Jonny was incredibly professional and responsive during the planning process and coordinated timelines with our many vendors on the day of. Our guests were on the dance floor all night and are still complimenting the band's performance. Highly recommend adding on the cold sparklers for an extra special touch!

We couldn't thank Jonathan enough for helping us plan our wedding. My husband and I wanted a nontraditional wedding celebration. Jonathan truly took his time in meeting with us to get a feel for exactly what we wanted. After meeting with Jonathan and getting his input and ideas on the venue we booked, he was able to incorporate something for everyone of all ages. He truly made the wedding a blast from the music to the photo booth. Since we already knew of Jonathan's musical talent (which is beyond extraordinary), we knew he would be able to help us integrate the right musical fit and he did! We used Jonathan's Then & Now Band which gave our event the relaxed yet fun rock vibe that we wanted. Our guests are still talking about the band and they want to know where they will be performing next just to hear them again. They sounded so amazing, better than the original artists!! We are so happy that our wedding turned out even more stunning than how we envisioned it to be. Thank you again Jonathan.

Where do we even begin?? Jonny Rizzo was our secret ingredient when it came to our wedding night. We knew how talented he was and we couldn't wait to unleash him onto all of our closest family and friends. He put on a true show, exceeded every expectation and was an absolute dream to deal with. We had so much fun planning our big day together — Jonny understood exactly what we wanted, got to know us and our personalities, and catered the entire night's performance to just that. We have not had one conversation with our guests — who danced so much we actually temporarily broke the dance floor! — since the wedding without them telling us, "Your band was AMAZING!" Our response, "We know!" We cannot say enough great things about Jonny — when it comes to booking a band for a wedding, he is an absolute no-brainer. He is a true professional and pleasure to deal with, an absolutely joy to spend time with and, above all, an unbelievably talented performer and MC! We cannot thank him enough for letting us live out our dreams of hopping on stage and closing down the best show we've ever been to :) -- Jackie and Alex Reiff (5/5/18, Philadelphia)
