Wedding Musicians in Long Island

From the moment I commissioned Amanda Hawthorn Owner/Artist of Live Well Paint Often I felt I was in great hands. I asked Amanda to paint and capture a very special moment from my daughter and son in law’s wedding day and I knew we were in for something wonderful. She took the time to understand not just the details of the day, but also the emotions and sentiments that made it memorable. The result was a stunning piece that encapsulated the joy, love, and celebration that filled the air. Every brushstroke tells a story. From the intricate details of Andrea's beautiful sparkling wedding gown, to the love shared between Andrea and Chris. It’s a true reflection of the day, and it has become a cherished keepsake for our family. 💖

James is an exceptional cellist. He was flexible during consultation and performed at our wedding ceremony. Everyone was impressed! James was prompt and coordinated with the venue making the day seamless for bride and groom. We will be thinking of James for future events - we highly recommend!

They made our wedding magical. We split the evening. First part was a string trio for the ceremony, cocktail hour and part of dinner.  The rest of the night was a keyboard and sax. Everyone was incredible. So many of our guests commented on how wonderful this team was. Patricia was amazing at working with us and putting together this team. Could not have asked for a better night.  PS the strings even played Metallica for us!  Tell them what you want. They can do it!  

We couldn’t be happier with What the Pluck! We used them for our wedding ceremony on 8/10/25 and it was absolutely amazing. Their music added such an elegant touch to the day and it truly set the tone from the moment guests arrived. Everyone is still talking about how beautiful they played and how much it elevated the entire atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Fabulous music! Book vsmusic4u for your wedding and they will deliver top notch service as they did for mine. Communication was seamless, price was reasonable. Couldn't have asked for more!!

We found Dan at an expo our venue had months prior to our wedding. We are so glad we got his card!! Prior to the wedding, Dan scheduled a meeting with us where he sampled every song we were interested in having at our cocktail hour. He was professional, polite and super easy to work with. We had so many people come up to us and tell us how amazing the music was at cocktail hour!!! We will definitely be keeping Dan in mind for any future events!! What a great addition to our wedding :)

David on guitar and his accompaniment on violin were absolutely wonderful for our wedding. They provided background music that was recognizable, based upon a recommendation play list we presented in advance, and professionally performed. We received so many compliments from our guests. The business end was simple and efficient and David was exceptionally responsive and easy to work with. I enjoyed the music so much, I would consider hiring David again just to have at a dinner party! Thanks so much for making our special day so memorable.

Matthew was a wonderful addition to my wedding ceremony. I had given very little thought to what song, or at what speed I wanted to walk down the isle, but Matthew had that covered! He gave me 2 or 3 song choices and explained how each would "play out" during the entrances and exits. He was very helpful and involved throughout my ceremony. Matthew has a joyful and positive attitude and it was a pleasure having him play on my special day!

I found Andrew Gabriel on the Knot and since the second I emailed him he was accommodating and super helpful. Very easy to work with when choosing songs! He played for my ceremony and cocktail hour and while I was waiting to walk down the isle and I could hear him start to sing, it was truly a breathtaking moment. He was everything that I imagined and could have wished for. Everyone is still talking about how amazing he was and how perfect the songs were. I can't thank him enough for making my wedding so much more special! Highly recommend!

We had Sam Powell perform at our company holiday party last year and loved him so much we invited him back this year—and he was just as amazing! A true professional, Sam’s saxophone and clarinet playing created the perfect festive atmosphere. He delivered beautiful holiday classics, smooth jazz, and even played other genre requests with ease. His talent and professionalism truly elevated our celebration. Highly recommended for any event looking for exceptional live music!
