We used Troy for our wedding and we were thrilled with the service! He is not only an amazing DJ but also a phenomenal MC! He interacts with the guests and makes sure everyone is up on the dance floor having a great time!

Wow! Wow! Wow! The Millennials were such a blessing for us. I don't even know where to begin! The music was tasteful and they just knew what to play next. There was never a dull moment, they kept everyone on their feet all night! The level of talent in this band is extraordinary. Our guest still mention them till this day. Working with Troy was seamless and never gave me a reason to feel worried. Thank you all sooooo much! Can't wait to find a reason to use you again. We love you guys!!

Troy Curtis Group's band IKONIX were the chosen band for my clients wedding this past weekend at Carlyle on the Green, and i must say how impressed I was by their sound, professionalism, and ability to get ALL of the guests on the dance floor for the majority of the party! As a wedding planner I have seen every band out there perform at affairs, and it is very rare to find a new band that truly blows it out of the water. The guests could not stop raving about the music and performers! I am truly excited to be able to tell my future clients about this band!

We booked the Ikonix through The Troy Curtis Group and all I can say is WOW! They absolutely rocked the house and we couldn't have asked for a better performance for our wedding. The band was able to feed off of the energy of the crowd and kept the dance floor packed all evening! They have an extensive repertoire and ensured that everything we wanted to be played was executed flawlessly! I highly recommend working with The Troy Curtis Group and this band to anyone planning a party. They are professional, responsive, creative, fun, and accommodating. THIS IS THE BEST WEDDING BAND I HAVE EVER HEARD, AND I AM HONORED TO HAVE THEM PLAY AT MY WEDDING!

Do not hesitate, this grout is amazing and will make your party one-hundred times better! My sister and I saw them at the JW Marriott anniversary party and absolutely loved them. My fiancee didn't hear them until the wedding day but afterwards he said that he was super impressed with them. He doesn't ever dance and he was on the dance floor the whole time... not just him, everyone was on the dance floor! They threw an amazing party and days later my guests are still commenting on what a great band they are. Troy is full of personality and super easy to work with! He helps you enjoy your engagement by not stressing and I'm a type A personality haha! Seriously best band ever! and totally worth every penny!!!

The band IKONIX was unbelievable. They stole the show at the wedding. They were the talk of the party the next day. They kept everyone moving and made the night the best of our lives. Cannot thank them enough!! Troy was a great help as well from beginning to end. He worked with us on every detail of the wedding and was so patient and understanding during the entire process.

This band was truly a MAJOR highlight of our wedding reception! Everybody loved them and, to this day, are still commenting about how fantastic they were! Troy lit up the room with his incredible stage presence & went above and beyond the call of duty to infuse the night with magical sounds, captivating performances & a REAL party atmosphere! I can't wait to hire them again! xxx
