Wonderful DJ for our wedding!

Olivera Music & Entertainment was wonderful to work with! We had a DJ for our wedding--DJ Ray--and have received so many comments about how AWESOME the music was! He kept that dance floor hopping all night long, it was the best. Kevin and his team also helped with set up for our live musicians for the ceremony and cocktail hour. They provided additional equipment for them which was super helpful. All in all, A+ experience!

Hire DJ Brian and you won't regret it!

Kevin Olivera and more specifically DJ Brian are absolutely amazing! DJ Brian played during our rehearsal dinner and for our ceremony and we couldn't have been happier. Brian made sure that he was available to me leading up to my wedding to assist with anything and felt like family from the first time we met. I gave DJ Brian little guidance aside from genre of music to play and he didn't disappoint at all. All of my rehearsal dinner guests were singing and dancing along all night. I can't thank DJ Brian enough for a great evening.

Oustanding music and service

Our trio from Olivera was fantastic! they helped us choose classical music for our ceremony and reception and played upbeat jazz for our cocktail reception, not to mention a special arrangement of Mr blue sky for our entrance as a new couple. Kevin is amazing to work with and we highly recommend them for any special occasion.

Olivera Trio

Kevin and the Olivera Trio exceeded all of our expectations and my wife and I would recommend them without hesitation to absolutely anyone for any event. We greatly look forward to the next time we can hire them for something ourselves! Working with Kevin we got much more than just an amazing jazz band that could read the room and keep the lovely music going, we also got to work with seasoned professionals who made the entire reception run more smoothly; he met us after the ceremony to chat through the reception “run of show”, introduced us as a married couple for our entrance, helped direct guests when we were about to cut our wedding cake and gathered people for our hora dance at the end of the night. We were also very impressed with the song we asked the trio to learn for our first dance. As my wife and I are not confident dancers, Kevin came up to us before the song and asked how long we wanted the dance to last; we told him we just wanted a short piece and the trio absolutely delivered, playing for a beautiful 90 seconds or so while we danced but not so long has to make us feel uncomfortable standing up there swaying. So much more lovely and memorable than a wedding DJ, if you are even remotely considering having live music at your wedding or event go with The Olivera Trio; you will be very happy you did; they made our night!

Great music and great times!

DJ/MC Ray was the best! He was very knowledgeable and helpful when meeting before the event. Through the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception he did a wonderful job helping everything flow smoothly and keeping people on the dance floor. The guests had a fantastic time.
We had a number of special requests (specific music, some slightly obscure) and he weaved them in flawlessly. DJ/MC Ray and Olivera Music were the best and we'd definitely recommend them to anyone!

Chelle Fulk is Amazing!

I always knew that for my wedding ceremony I'd want a violinist to play, and I was so lucky to have Chelle Fulk be assigned to mine when the time came! Not only is she so incredibly talented, but she's professional, personable, and highly organized. She made it super easy to select the right songs, which if Classical music knowledge isn't your strong suit (like me), it can be daunting!

I'd highly recommend Chelle for your wedding, especially if you're looking for that classical, elegant touch that leaves few dry eyes as you're walking down the aisle :)

Vocalist/guitarist

We used Eddie who sang and played at our reception. He was fantastic!! He played the songs we chose and even learned some new ones that we liked! Our guests enjoyed him as well and we would use him again and recommend him without hesitation!

Fantastic Company

The company was very professional and very attentive. The quartet played beautiful music during our ceremony and cocktail hour. The DJ Ray Casiano was outstanding during the reception. Do yourself a favor and ask him about his gobos. Everything ran smoothly and effortlessly. I would highly recommend this company and will use them in the future!!!

Excellent service for farm wedding

We had DJ Alex MC our wedding reception at East Lynn Farms this fall. Alex was great to work with and talk to leading up to the event and worked with us selecting music. He reminded us of potential song choices we didn’t think of. Would highly recommend!
