Miriam Sent on 07/16/2026Perfect Entertainment For Your Wedding
I know I’m probably the thousandth person to say this, but Elegant Music Group absolutely exceeded every expectation we had for our wedding. From start to finish, they were phenomenal, and they played such a huge role in making our wedding unforgettable.
Our DJ was James North, and we also hired several of their musicians for different parts of the day. Every single performer was incredibly talented. Even weeks after our wedding, people are still telling us how amazing the music was, how talented the musicians were, and how the entertainment created the perfect atmosphere from beginning to end. They set the tone for every part of the day, making everything feel elegant during the ceremony and cocktail hour, then turning the reception into an incredible party.
James was absolutely amazing to work with throughout the planning process. We had a Jewish-Persian fusion wedding, which meant there were a lot of moving pieces, traditions, and cultural elements to coordinate. He took the time to learn how to pronounce everyone’s names correctly, understand the flow of each ceremony, know exactly which songs needed to be played and when, and make sure that traditions from both of our backgrounds were honored. He seamlessly blended Jewish, Persian, and contemporary music into one cohesive experience that truly reflected us as a couple.
During the wedding itself, guests kept coming up to tell us how incredible the music was. People commented on how smooth the transitions were, how perfectly the energy built throughout the night, and how packed the dance floor stayed. Everything flowed effortlessly.
One of the biggest highlights was the saxophonist we hired through Elegant Music Group. Walking through the crowd, interacting with guests while playing, and bringing so much energy to the dance floor—it completely elevated the reception. People absolutely loved it, and it’s something our guests are still talking about.
Beyond their incredible talent, the entire team was organized, professional, responsive, and so easy to work with. Planning entertainment for a wedding can feel overwhelming, but they made the entire process stress-free and gave us complete confidence that everything would be perfect.
Another thing I really appreciated was that their pricing was fair and reasonable. We received quotes from other entertainment companies that were significantly more expensive, and I genuinely don’t think we could have received better service or talent than we did with Elegant Music Group.
I’m so grateful that friends recommended them to us because they were one of the absolute best vendor decisions we made. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Elegant Music Group again for future events, and I recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone looking for an entertainment team that is talented, organized, energetic, and truly knows how to create an unforgettable celebration. -

Evelyn Sent on 07/05/2026Unforgettable Experience!
There are simply not enough words to express our gratitude to Tom Gambuzza and the entire EMG team for making our wedding an unforgettable celebration!
From the very beginning, Tom’s professionalism, organization, and attention to detail gave us complete confidence that our day was in the best hands. On our wedding day, everything was flawless.
A special thank you to the incredible drummer, saxophonist, and pianist, whose talent brought our celebration to another level. The live music added so much excitement, elegance, and energy, creating moments that were truly magical. The combination of live musicians with Tom’s music selection kept our guests on the dance floor all night long.
We also want to recognize the amazing EMG support staff working behind the scenes. Their coordination, professionalism, and attention to every detail allowed everything to run seamlessly, so we could simply enjoy every moment with our family and friends.
Our guests are still talking about the music, the energy, and the incredible atmosphere. Choosing Tom Gambuzza and the EMG team was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. They didn’t just entertain our guests—they created an experience and memories that we will cherish for a lifetime.
Thank you, Tom, the talented drummer, saxophonist, pianist, and the entire EMG team, for making our wedding celebration beyond anything we could have imagined. You are truly the best! -

Megan Sent on 05/07/2026Josuel w/ EMG Was Great!
Josuel did a great job at our wedding. He completely understood our vision. We are big indie music lovers and frequent concert goers so the music was super important to us. While we typically don’t love wedding music, Josuel found a way to make us and our crowd happy, starting with some more popular songs we like and mixing in more of our favorites toward the end of the night. He read the room and the crowd and adjusted to keep the party going. He also found a good balance of music to make sure everyone of varying ethnicities feel included. We really loved all the songs he picked out and were so happy. Even though disaster had struck (a technical issue with the venue’s equipment that caused the music to cut out a few times), he stayed professional and apologized to us after despite it not being his fault. I would definitely recommend EMG and specifically Josual for anyone looking for a personalized experience that doesn’t alienate your guests. -

Emily Sent on 12/30/2025Nonstop dance party!
Hiring the right DJ for our wedding was one of the most important decisions for me and I’m very happy to say that John Garcia with EMG exceeded expectations. John did a fantastic job in every way, from MCing the night to putting on an absolute nonstop dance party he killed it. We got countless compliments about how good the music was both during and after the wedding. Not only was the song selection great, but he perfectly transitioned the songs and remixed them when needed to keep the energy flowing from one moment to the next. Furthermore every small detail that we cared about, from lowering the volume during dinner to where we wanted to start our first dance he paid attention to and executed perfectly. He was also a delight to work with.
We also hired a keyboardist through EMG to play during the ceremony and cocktail hour. They did a fantastic job as well, I’m very impressed with how full the music sounded with just one person. I can’t say I know much about playing piano but friends of mine who do said they thought he was fantastic.
Lastly we hired EMG for our lighting and they did a great job with this as well. All together I’m very happy we worked with them and can’t recommend them enough! -

We had the absolute pleasure of having EMG Elegance Music Group as our live DJ for our wedding party, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From start to finish, Bryan and his team were nothing short of amazing.
They brought the perfect balance of authenticity, professionalism, and charisma, all while keeping a laid-back and supportive vibe that made everything feel effortless. Bryan and the team really took the time to listen to our vision, understand our music preferences, and tailor the energy of the evening to exactly what we wanted!
Our guests haven’t stopped talking about how fun and unforgettable the night was and a huge part of that was thanks to the incredible atmosphere EMG created. They didn’t just play music; they enhanced the entire experience of our celebration!

Denise Sent on 10/13/2025Perfect Wedding Vibes
We loved working with Bryan, Milo, Victor and John. Bryan, our MC and lead DJ, met with us and discussed our timeline, special song choice and what vibe we wanted for our wedding day. He was able to take our taste in music and create the perfect dance party. The rest of the EMG crew was able to create an environment with their intelligent lighting that guests are still talking about!

Marty Sent on 10/10/2025Bryan + EMG - 5 Stars!
EMG handled all the music at our wedding and they were awesome! We worked with Bryan Festa - Bryan is really fun, nice, and easy to work with. Bryan DJ'ed the whole day and was accompanied by a Saxophonist and drummer for the reception. Our dance floor was packed the whole time and we got a ton of compliments on how fun the whole night was. I'd definitely recommend working with Bryan and EMG. Amazing experience! -

Riley Sent on 09/21/2025We Love Neon Transit!
We hired Neon Transit from EMG for our wedding music. They were amazing. James was super easy to work with and went out of his way to make sure we felt special and heard from all the way through. Their unique blend of both DJ mixes with live instruments was super cool live. We loved having the saxophonist on the dance floor with us. We also hired the mirror photo booth, which was also a hit. Our guests love using the it so much, we had a few stragglers for sitting down for dinner! Definitely recommend working with EMG, they made the whole wedding experience, from the planning to the big day, fun and easy. -

Emily Sent on 08/17/2025Best decision we made!
Working with EMG was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. The strings trio for our ceremony was absolutely beautiful and created the exact atmosphere we dreamed of. Later in the evening, Austin (our DJ) kept the energy sky-high from the very first song until the last dance—our guests are still raving about how incredible the music was and how much fun they had on the dance floor!
Beyond the talent, the entire EMG team was responsive, professional, and so easy to work with throughout planning. They truly took the stress out of the process and delivered above and beyond on the big day. We’re so grateful for everything they did to make our wedding so special and memorable. If you’re considering EMG—don’t hesitate. They’re the best of the best! -
![Rebecca]()
Rebecca Sent on 08/15/2025The Best Event Team!
As a bride, working with EMG made my wedding planning experience significantly easier! We worked directly with Tom Gambuzza who was professional, flexible and clearly an expert at what he does.. our evening with music - Violin, Piano, Saxophone and DJ Team - couldn’t have been better. Tom completely captured our vision. We also included the sparkler fountains and Celebrity Photo Booth to our package - both were a major hit with our guests! I couldn’t recommend EMG more - they know what they are doing, they are experts at what they do and they do everything with a smile. When you sign-on with EMG you are getting an entire team that wants your day to be successful and that doesn’t go unnoticed. -

Nicole Sent on 05/29/2025Look no further!
Hands down the best decision we made during our wedding planning process. Austin was our event lead and he was amazing both during the planning process and on the night of our wedding. We gave him very little guidance in song choices and told him we just wanted people to have a good time. He read the room flawlessly and kept people on the dance floor all night. We still have guests randomly bring up how fun our wedding was nearly a year later thanks for Austin and the EMG team! -

Ashley Sent on 05/15/2025The perfect wedding DJ
We couldn't have asked for a better DJ experience than the one we had with Tom from EMG. From day one, he exceeded our expectations. He was incredibly kind, professional, and made us feel completely at ease throughout the entire planning process — which meant so much to us since music was a top priority for our wedding.
On the big day, Tom was amazing. He checked in on us throughout the night, helped our first-time officiant feel comfortable with a sound check before the ceremony, and seamlessly mic’d up our best man and maid/matrons of honor for speeches. When it came to the music, he absolutely nailed it. He read the room and the dance floor perfectly — everyone was raving about the music and the energy never dropped. He kept the party going all night long.
The EMG Music Group app made it super easy for us to select songs for every part of the day, and it was clear Tom took our preferences seriously while also knowing exactly how to keep the vibe fun and flowing.
Tom was truly so great to work with, and we can't recommend him enough. If you're looking for someone who is professional, thoughtful, and will keep your guests dancing all night — he's your guy. -

EMG and Neon Transit made our wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner reception and dancing so incredibly fun and memorable! We entered wedding planning with the mindset of not wanting the wedding playlist to be the same as every other one we’ve attended. Neon Transit completely exceeded our expectations and we hope to host/attend another event where they are playing!! -

Travis from Elegant Music Group was absolutely amazing! From the moment the reception started, he had the energy high and the dance floor packed all night long. He read the crowd perfectly, played the best mix of songs, and kept the vibe exactly how we wanted. Our guests are still raving about how much fun they had! He made the entire process seamless, from planning to execution, and truly made our wedding unforgettable. If you’re looking for a DJ who knows how to throw an incredible party, Travis is the one!

Jordan Sent on 01/12/2025Jamming with The Gramercy (EMG)
The Gramercy (Elegant Music Group) brought the party! With the high-energy instrumentation of keys, a guitar, drums, and a DJ, and the authenticity of the original vocals/backing tracks of our favorite songs, The Gramercy brought something for everyone. We barely left the dance floor all night–and neither did our guests!
One of our favorite parts about the experience was working with Cesar. During our first meeting, Cesar got us started with EMG’s app, which really helped us plan and craft our key songs and timeline for the day. And when we met again to run through our selections, he really understood the feeling we wanted to curate, beyond ‘must-plays’ and our ‘do not play’ list. Cesar acted as our DJ and MC, and was an absolute all-star.
For our ceremony and cocktail hour, we had keys, and the vibes were perfect–romantic and thoughtful, and we’re so appreciative that they played a beautiful instrumental rendition of Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros’ “Home” for our processional.
As the reception kicked off, Cesar hyped us all up, announced our special moments, and kept everything stress-free, working with us and the venue to make sure all our key moments ran smoothly. He was calm, thorough, and fun to work with–Cesar and The Gramercy even helped us pull off a fast-paced photo-blitz with 20 tables. It was something that could have been a stressful experience, but The Gramercy (along with our photographers and a couple of drunk cousins) made it a really fun experience.
As the night progressed, The Gramercy had everyone from our 90-year-old aunts to the pre-teen flower girls on the dance floor. They shifted from well-loved wedding classics to 90s/00s jams, working in our favorite pop-punk, alternative and hip-hop songs. The experience was complete with amazing guitar solos, soulful keys, and a badass drummer, while Cesar created mash-ups that kept us jumping until the last song–Shout–riotously played.
And while the dance floor raged on, the EMG Photo Booth allowed our guests to capture some of our favorite (and funniest) pictures from the night. We were happy to learn that The Gramercy plays alongside other EMG acts a couple times a year so that newly engaged couples and married couples alike can come and hear their music. We’ll continue to rock out with them (although now that we’re an old married couple, we’ll keep the head-banging to a minimum). We would recommend them to anyone looking for an incredible band.
Thank you, Gramercy! -

Jony Kept Dance Floor Packed All Night!
EMG was a recommended vendor through our venue and they were amazing!! We had Jony as our DJ and he was amazing. Throughout the process he was very easy to work with and listened to our suggestions and music preferences. We love EDM, but knew we wanted to appeal to all, so we asked to mix in early 2000s and oldies. Jony did exactly what we asked for, and everyone loved it! The dance floor was packed all night.
We also added on piano for ceremony, sax for reception, and a photobooth. The piano songs we chose were all covers, and they were perfect. The sax was such a fun addition and everyone loved it. The photobooth was a hit and it was really fun to get an album with notes from our guests afterwards.
The communication and process with EMG was seamless and we can’t recommend them enough!

Tom and the entire EMG staff were super professional and went above and beyond to ensure our big day was everything that we dreamed of. We had live musicians for our ceremony and cocktail hour, and they did a great job playing all requested music as well as working in a variety of music. We had Tom DJ our reception, and he was willing to figure out all of our unique requests and ensure that everything that we wanted to incorporate into our day happened without any flaws. He had the whole party dancing the ENTIRE night, to the point where our photographer and videographer said it was hard to even work the dance floor it was so crowded. I would recommend Tom and the EMG team for any event! -

We booked CityScape through EMG for our wedding reception and cocktail hour. They were incredible and so easy to work with. The band leader, Michael, walked us through every step from planning to making sure we were happy day-of. We couldn't have been happier with the band's performance itself.

I am so serious when I say to look no further than EMG for all of your entertainment needs. Tom and his entire team went above and beyond to bring our wedding entertainment vision to life.

Emma Sent on 10/13/2024The Gramercy is Amazing!
We couldn’t have been more thrilled with the music for our reception and cocktail hour! We went with The Gramercy, a DJ/band combo, and they were absolutely amazing. From start to finish, they kept the energy up and made sure the music was exactly what we wanted.
They were incredibly interactive with our guests, which really added to the fun. It wasn’t just background music—it was a key part of the celebration, and everyone felt engaged. They played every song we requested perfectly and seamlessly filled in with other tracks that hit the mood exactly right. The vibe was always on point, and we had guests commenting that it was the best wedding music they had ever experienced.
Beyond their talent, they were also so easy to work with. The whole process was super streamlined, from submitting song requests and details through their app to coordinating with the venue. They were professional, responsive, and just an absolute joy to work with.
One highlight was when they played "Shipping up to Boston" and all of the Boston College alumni went crazy on the dance floor! See the pics below, from our amazing photographer Carolina Rivera (who we also recommend!)

The EMG Experience (specifically Bryan Festa) was absolutely incredible. We met with him multiple times in advance of the wedding and not only did he cater to our every need, but he provided us with some much needed guidance and advice on how to structure the night! He singlehandedly made our wedding one of the most fun weddings I and our guests had ever been to.
On the day of, he set everything up perfectly and he proceeded to play the most fantastic music, transitioning from song to song beautifully. I do not think anybody left the dance floor the entire night. He played all genres for all ages. It was a 10/10 DJ set
If you are looking for a DJ/emcee for your wedding, do not look any further. It would be a mistake to not go with EMG. -

Bryan Festa was our DJ and he played the perfect songs to keep the crowd on the dance floor while making sure the songs chosen reflected our style as a couple. We have received countless compliments on the music at our wedding and everyone said they had the best time dancing thanks to our wonderful DJ.

Jon K. Sent on 07/19/2024EMG made our wedding!
Tom and EMG absolutely crushed it for my wedding. We've gotten so many compliments about the music, and the dancefloor was packed all evening.
As soon as the reception ended, I made a beeline for Tom and asked "Where can we give you reviews?" I was eager to do it because he'd just made our wedding.
My wife and I went with an "enhanced" DJ package that added a drumkit and a saxophone. I wasn't sure at first how that would land, but it was incredible, and I'm so glad we went with that option. The live drums added so much energy, and the saxophone filled everything out. Multiple people commented on how much the live instruments added.
Tom himself was perfect as our DJ - just the right amount of MCing to keep things flowing without becoming intrusive, and excellent song sequencing to keep the party progressing.
The EMG team was friendly, attentive, and easy to work with throughout, and their use of an app to suggest and track songs really streamlined the process.
Very strong recommend. -

Josuel was an excellent DJ who had the whole room dancing the entire night! We can’t say enough good things about Josuel, and we got so many compliments on him from our guests. From the first call, it was obvious that Josuel cared about attention to detail and he made a conscious effort to understand what we wanted from our reception.

EMG was a hit!
Hiring Elegant Music Group for our Wedding was definitely one of our BEST vendor decisions! Music is extremely important to us so we definitely put a lot of emphasis on finding the best entertainment company. From the first call with Mike, we knew we didn't have to look anywhere else. The entire crew at EMG was professional, knowledgable and responsive from start to finish. Shawn was our Event Host and we were so lucky to have him! Not only was he extremely talented, experienced, and fun but he made the process so personal and customized. We trusted him instantly and when our wedding date finally came around, Shawn made sure our dance floor was never empty. We, along with our guests, had the absolute best time and everyone raved about the music. They still haven't stopped talking about our electric violinist (shout out to the incredible Tristan!!). We were fortunate to have Tristan play the violin during our ceremony as well. I walked down the aisle to the Jurassic Park Theme Song (a different request that the norm, for sure) and Tristan played it so beautifully. It was perfect & exactly how I imagined it. We cannot rave enough about EMG - definitely hire them for your next event! -

Band/DJ hybrid: Neon Transit
Yanko and his group Neon Transit were an absolute BLAST. I had to physically be pulled off the dance floor when I was needed for formalities because I did not want to miss a single song. They took our must play list and ran with it, reading the room and giving us the songs we needed when we needed them. Guests complimented us all night on the choice of this band/DJ hybrid, and were particularly impressed with the live musicians of the group.
Photo booth and dance floor lighting:
The Photo Booth was a huge hit! We saw people of all ages having fun with it throughout the entire night. The intelligent dance floor lighting was a last minute add on for us and I’m glad we did it, it really helped create a fun atmosphere without feeling “clubby” -

From the very beginning we felt so comfortable with the emg team. After interviewing a few companies. Emg made us feel like they can be apart of our family. We also went to their headquarters to opening night and had so much fun. This helped us pick the extras for the wedding. We ended up getting a violinist, keyboardist, up-lighting and of course… Bryan. Bryan was unbelievable! I want to have another party just to use them all again. I can’t even explain how many of my friends and family called me how great the music was. We couldn’t stop dancing. -

We used EMG for our wedding back in October and had an incredible experience! The team is incredible responsive, kind, and detailed! They also have so many incredible options- which is why they were an easy vendor for us to go forward with!
We hired two live musicians- a pianist and violinist- for our ceremony and cocktail hour- WOW. They not only played every song beautifully, but they also added an incredible touch to our day.
Jony Rahat was an amazing DJ and kept everyone on the dance floor all night long for our ceremony! It was important to us to play music for EVERYONE and he did just that.

We got married in September and Bryan Festa with EMG could not have impressed us more. Him and his team were extremely helpful throughout, and were seamlessly flexible on the day of. Their planning process is thorough, but were ready to change it up when the moment called for it on our wedding day.
Bryan was professional and could not have been nicer. He understood our vision perfectly, and *everyone* at the wedding was impressed with the dance floor, music selection, everything.
We would highly recommend Bryan and his team for your wedding any day of the week. Thank you so much! -

Dj matty g is incredible
The EMG staff was lovely and responsive, from our onboarding call to the last-minute technical questions. But the real star of the show, for us, was DJ Matty G.
Matty DJed our wedding in September, and he not only met our expectations but went far above and beyond what we would reasonably expect from anyone. He was friendly and easy to get along with; he understood our timeline and kept the party moving; he easily made adjustments/vamped when the groom's sister got stuck in a room (literally) and was running late for her speech; he gladly reordered our reception bridal party entrance after the ceremony; and he cheerfully let me (the bride) change my father-daughter dance song at the last minute (an actual 30 seconds before we entered the reception room). He knew when the energy on the dance floor was waning and what songs would pump some life back into it. When the reception was over, Matty was off the clock and packing up, and we were setting up karaoke for our after party, I realized I forgot to bring one of the cables for my own speakers. Matty came over, asked what was wrong, and dug into his already-packed-up gear to find the cable I needed. He said to keep it, that it wasn't a big deal for him to get another. Our savior!
THANK YOU, Matty and EMG, for making our day and night an exceptionally good one. To anyone considering hiring them, I encourage you to do it. And if you have the option of working with Matty, TAKE IT. You won't regret it! -

EMG and event host Matty were two parts of my wedding people could not stop talking about. EMG provided our DJ, our electronic seating chart, our photobooth, uplighting, and our audio guestbook. Working with them was so easy and I had nothing to worry about day of. We met with Matty twice prior to the wedding, just going off how fun and hilarious the meetings were we knew our wedding was in good hands. EMG uses an app for music organization and selection which was so easy to use. Day of, Matty KILLED it. People were on the dance floor the entire time, song choice and transition were impeccable, and overall it was just extremely fun. If I had to plan it all over again, I would choose Matty and EMG every time. -

Our wedding became an extraordinary celebration, all thanks to the sensational fusion band Neon Transit that graced our special day. They did more than keep everyone on the dance floor; they transformed our wedding into an electrifying dance extravaganza that left us and our guests utterly thrilled.
From the very start, their performance infused the atmosphere with an infectious energy that had everyone moving. Combining the live band's organic sound with the DJ's modern touch was a genius move, making their music irresistible and dynamic.
Their versatility knew no bounds, effortlessly spanning various genres and eras, catering to all musical tastes and ages present. Their engagement with the audience was magnetic, with the lead vocalist encouraging sing-alongs and spontaneous dance-offs, creating an inclusive and joyful atmosphere.
Our wedding had countless memorable moments, but it was this remarkable band-DJ fusion that took it to an entirely new level. They made our party unforgettable, and we'll forever cherish the energy and enthusiasm they brought to our special day. -

Marissa Sent on 09/09/2023Neon Transit EXCEEDED Expectations
I have nothing but amazing things to say about our experience with using Elegant Music Group for my wedding in August 2023.
When looking for vendors, we wanted a hybrid band but struggled to find a group that was responsive to what we were going for. From the get, EMG had their clients in mind, while still imparting their expertise and wisdom. We felt super confident with the team.
We ended up hiring Neon Transit, an amazing hybrid band, for our wedding. From there, we were primarily in contact with Yanko, who is a DJ/MC extraordinaire, who you could immediately tell has a passion for his work. I felt like I was in great hands with Yanko and trusted his suggestions. He guided us to work out the details and allowed us to not have to worry about the details on our big day.
Our guests were OBSESSED with Neon Transit. They loved the selection of music, the hybrid approach, and the energy the band provided. At least 3 people asked us for the website/contact information for their wedding or a friend.
20/10 recommend this vendor. They are easy to work with, extremely organized, and really keep in mind their clients when planning out your day! Thank you to EMG and Neon Transit for making our day so special! -

Emily Sent on 07/17/2023Excellent Band - CityScape by Elegant Music Group
We hired CityScape to play our wedding reception at Hotel LBI in LBI, NJ (8-piece band) and boy were we happy that we did!! The band sounded fantastic! Their performance was incredible. Lead singers, Remmi and Sammi, not only sounded excellent but also brought an undeniable energy that brought our guests to their feet. To start off the night, the band played a song and came out onto the dance floor and really got the crowd involved and the energy high. Remmi, Sammi, Michael, and the rest of the band are a very talented group of musicians that clearly have a ton of experience playing weddings. They were able to tailor their set to our individual preferences while also using their vast knowledge of weddings to help create a dynomite setlist. They have a wide range of genres that they can expertly play. They rocked it out and also jazzed it up! They beautifully performed upbeat pop music and soulful ballads. We received countless compliments from our guests after the event. The process was smooth and easy and we loved using their app to help build our musical preferences. We would absolutely recommend this band for your event with no hesitations!!!!!! -

Michael Sent on 07/03/2023Amazing DJ. Had the dance floor packed.
Tom our DJ was amazing. He made himself readily available before the wedding and made sure all the songs were organized and tailored to our specific taste (which was no small feat as he was able to include music for myself, the groom, my bride, my side of the family and my wife’s side of the family. It was a perfect blend that never left the dance floor empty. I highly recommend! -

Joanna Sent on 05/19/2023Best decision of our wedding planning
When planning our wedding, my husband and I knew the DJ would be the most important part of our night. From our first meeting with EMG we knew they were the right choice. They had a great vibe and were so helpful along the way. We could not have been more HAPPY with having Bryan on our special day. He was amazing with our parents and bridal party but made it the most perfect night. We truly never saw the dance floor empty and I owe that to him and his amazing team!! You will not regret working with EMG!! -

Flavio Sent on 05/14/2023Wow! EMG will do a show at your wedding!
EMG is the right vendor for entertainment! Josuel, our host, simply made a show, even surprising me with playing Brazilian songs I loved and I missed to request! He actually got what we wanted and made an amazing selection! The sparkles and the clouds took the party to another level, the musicians at the ceremony played beautifully and the photo boot was a blast! And more than what happened during the party, there is all the support they provided before. Musicians accepted to play the songs we chose, they recorded a mix we needed for the first dance a couple times until we got the perfect cuts, and Josuel ensured all the details we discussed in the planning matched. You will have peace of mind! I cannot thank EMG enough for all the amazing work they did and for turning our party into a success! -

Elegant Music Group absolutely NAILED IT at our wedding - and it was one of the BEST decisions we could've made for our big day!

Tom got the vibe we wanted EXACTLY right and people cannot stop talking about the music and what an amazing time they had on the dance floor. Tom and his team were professional, kind, classy and extremely talented. HIGHLY HIGHLY recommended EMG! -

Tom and his team at EMG were incredible. From the planning process to the big day, everything was seamless. I was worried about the flow of my wedding and timing, but Tom took the lead and kept it all moving, perfectly. We took advantage of a lot of the enhancements and talent that EMG offers, including live musicians for the ceremony and cocktail hour (keys and sax), digital seating chart, ballroom uplighting, the vanity photobooth and indoor sparklers. It is no exaggeration to say everything exceeded our expectations. And then there's Tom, owner, DJ extraordinaire. He is unbelievably nice and professional and knows how to throw one heck of a party. Our dance floor was PACKED the entire night. "Legendary", "electric" are just a few of the fantastic reviews I received from my wedding guests.
I would recommend Elegant Music Group to anyone looking to throw an outstanding event. They make the planning process easy and provide you and your guests an event they will never forget. They really are incredible. -

Edward Sent on 03/28/2023Amazing! All inclusive entertainment provider
We used EMG for our wedding in NJ and they came highly recommended by the venue. Austin was a fantastic host/DJ and made sure everything went along smoothly. We also added a string trio and live electric violin and saxophone - all the musicians were top-notch and were able to play by ear to match the background tunes.
For our ceremony, the bride walked down to a very specific anime song that was only available in piano format, but the string trio had no problem transcribing and playing it with strings - that was likely the first time in history our specific song was ever played by strings, and it was beautifully executed. Lastly, we added a photobooth from EMG and all our guests had fun. The support staff and coordinators ensured a smooth process throughout for billing, add-ons, and services. All questions were answered and this company is highly responsive and open to making sure customers are happy and have a perfect wedding.
