Great for Wedding Cocktail Hour!

We absolutely loved having Michele at Steven Vance Electric Violins play during our cocktail hour! She played such fun, popular songs that everyone recognized, which was such a fun and elegant touch to start our reception. It created the perfect atmosphere and was such a unique detail that our guests loved! Michele was wonderful to work with and we would highly recommend her for any wedding or event!

Would highly recommend!!

Liz was our violinist for our ceremony & cocktail hour, and she was amazing! She was able to play songs that I requested that she hadn't necessarily done before, and they turned out so beautiful. I couldn't have imagined our friends/family as well as myself walking down the aisle to anything else! She also added such an elevation to cocktail hour! Liz was also very communicative and easy to talk to :) I would highly recommend Steven Vance!

Perfection!!!

We got married 6.27.26 and used Steven Vance entertainment to book electric violinist for ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner service and dj services for after dinner until end of night and I could not have asked for anything to go more perfectly. Charles May was absolutely wonderful and the live violin made the ceremony feel so beautiful. He was so professional and played beautifully and it was exactly how I imagined. Dj Rick took over for announcements and dancing and he followed every list to perfection. Communication was amazing between the both of them and with our coordinated and they nailed everything. Worth every penny and I’d hire Steven Vance entertainment in a heartbeat again!! Thank you all so much for everything. We couldn’t have had a more perfect day!!

The best for our wedding!

Steven Vance and DJ Rick were the best! They had forms to fill out before our wedding, and even scheduled multiple calls to get everything right. Steven Vance as the Violinist really added something to the ceremony, Cocktail Hour and Dinner. DJ Rick was the best also! He got everyone excited and on the dance floor! Soul train was a hit!

Perfect for my ceremony

We heard Steve at Bella Terra and was impressed. When we went with him anyway and booked with Joyce who was an electric violinist. As soon as I heard her set up and began to practice for the ceremony, myself and most of my bridesmaids began to weep. It was absolutely beautiful. She literally did not make one single mistake, it was loud in the perfect way and resonated thought the whole ceremony hall. I’d have Joyce 100x over if I had to choose again. So thankful for her for making my day so special. Absolute perfection!!

10.18.25 - The Stables at Hartwood Acres

Working with Steven Vance Entertainment was seamless from start to finish. Both our DJ and violinist were professional and talented. A special shoutout to our DJ, Mike Russell — he did an amazing job balancing music and conversation. Even my 92-year-old grandmother mentioned how much she loved that she could still chat with guests while enjoying the background music during dinner. Excellent experience all around!

The best DJ and Violinist

Steven Vance played the electric violin during our ceremony and cocktail hour. He was absolutely incredible and we had so many compliments about his music. We had DJ Matt Nichols for our reception and he was fantastic as well. His song selection was perfect without us having given him a list and he had people on the dance floor all night. We had phone calls with both Steven and Matt the week before the wedding to go over timelines and final details. I would highly recommend Steven Vance entertainment!

Perfect day

We couldn’t have asked for a better entertainment company for our wedding! From start to finish, the team was professional, friendly, and incredibly talented. The music created such an amazing atmosphere. Our guests are still raving about how fantastic the music was! They truly understood our vibe and made the day feel so special. We requested to have the F1 theme song add to our entrance ceremony music and they did not disappoint. I was beyond thrilled when I heard it. We would recommend them to anyone seeking unforgettable live music for their event.

One of my very favorite professionals in the Wedding Industry! Steven is always the calm, professional, very helpful fellow. He and his musicans can play anything!! Literally, hum a few bars, and they will play it. I always know that we will have a wonderful day when Steven or one of his musicans is playing at a wedding we are servicing together. he is the best!! (and if you want a real treat, ask him to bring John Garrick on the keyboard along also).
