Phenomenal in every way!

We were set to get married in 07/2020 but had to push it out one year due to the pandemic. I couldn't have asked for a more outstanding vendor to work with! Acoustic Generation was so accommodating, easy to work with, and communicative throughout the entire process. Liz was a guiding light during the planning process and really helped to structure our entire day-of schedule!

Aside from being superb professionals, Liz & Matt were also incredible musicians. On top of MCing and organizing chaos, they also played live music throughout our ceremony & our brunch reception. We heard rave reviews from all of our guests about the band. We wish that we could have had a dance floor (COVID precautions) because I have no doubt that they would have been fantastic as well!

Thank you for being a part of our incredible day.

Best day ever

When it came time to select a musicians, we thank our lucky stars we found you! We are still in awe when we look back on everything you and Matt did for us before, during, and after the wedding. Without your help our special day would not have been the picture-perfect event we always dreamed of. Your planning, preparation, and attention to detail was amazing. Thank you so much. We appreciate you more than words can say.

Matt and Linsea did a stellar job DJing and playing/singing for our wedding reception!
I had a good feeling about them when we saw their website, and truly they went above and beyond our expectations. I wanted to have some live music, but a live band through the whole reception wasn’t really financially an option for us. Matt and Linsea were the perfect choice, providing live music for our cocktail hour and dinner and DJing the rest of the evening. Guests continuously came up to us and commented on how incredible they sounded (a few people asked if they had an album), and they did a fantastic job of getting everyone up and dancing and leading the evening smoothly. I can’t speak highly enough of them. They are spectacular, and they really made our wedding something special.
