Why choose between live music and a DJ for your wedding when you can have both?

Bands are great, but they’re expensive – and they only know so many songs. DJs will bring the dance party, but pre-recorded music, especially in those intimate moments, can lack that genuine, human connection that your love story deserves.

We’re here to make things simple:

We play live music. We DJ. And we help create unforgettable moments that are uniquely you.

​Picture this: soft, elegant live music leads you down the aisle. Later, your cocktail hour is buzzing with the sound of loved ones while live acoustic versions of your favorite songs are played for everyone to enjoy. And when you’re ready to turn the volume up, you watch your guests flood the dance floor for a dynamic, high-energy DJ set that has you partying all night long.

If you’re ready for a soundtrack for your wedding day that perfectly complements your vibe, delivered to you in a totally unique, no-compromise entertainment package, we’ve got you covered.

The BEST time!

Joseph and Erika were way beyond amazing! They were incredibly easy and fun to work with on music. I was worried about how we were choose songs and how hard it would be, but they have an app that is very helpful and fun to use, and you get to pick out all your music right on there for the whole night! We didn’t end up choosing most of our dance floor music and just told them what types we liked, and they ABSOLUTELY nailed the dance floor music! It was hard to find a time to go to the bathroom because every song was too perfect! All our guest said how great they were and how much fun the music was! They are also incredibly talented and our live songs were so beautifully done. I cannot recommend these two more! They truly made our night so special with their beautiful music!

A great Singer Guitarist we highly recommend!

After listening to many musicians on the internet, we decided to hire Joseph to play at our wedding ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner, since we really liked his voice and performances that we saw. It turned out that it was the best choice we could have made.
He was very professional right from the beginning and arranged a phone call with us to share our ideas and vision for our wedding before providing us with a clear and concise contract. He then gave us his user-friendly event App, which allowed us to select specific songs for the different parts of our wedding ceremony and reception. Through the App we were even able to provide information for him to use as our Master of Ceremonies (MC) for the event.
Although Joseph has an extensive list of songs in his repertoire, there was one particular song we wanted him to perform for our first dance that wasn’t on his list. He was more than happy to learn this specific song just for us and we just loved the version he came up with.
On the morning of the wedding, Joseph arrived over an hour early to set up his equipment in both the ceremony and reception venues. His beautiful voice, skillful guitar playing and very pleasant personality during the ceremony and reception was enjoyed by everyone. We couldn’t have asked for a better singer guitarist. All of our guests told us how much they enjoyed his music, and how he made our wedding extra special. His MC skills were also very impressive. We strongly recommend hiring Joseph for any event where you need a very reliable, friendly and professional musician with a beautiful voice! Thank you very much Joseph for making our wedding so special!!

The BEST Wedding Band!

Absolutely phenomenal! Joseph and Erika are not just a wedding band; they are true musical magicians who made our special day utterly unforgettable. From the moment they started playing acoustic melodies during our cocktail hour and dinner, their talent and warmth set the perfect tone. Their music added such a special touch, creating an ambiance that was both intimate and enchanting.

As the evening progressed, they seamlessly transitioned into high gear with their full band, igniting the dance floor and turning our celebration into an epic party! Their ability to read the vibe of our guests was uncanny—they played the perfect mix of songs that kept everyone on their feet and filled the air with infectious energy.

Joseph and Erika's professionalism and genuine passion for what they do shone through every note they played. Their musical prowess is matched only by their wonderful personalities; they felt like part of our wedding family from the very beginning.

Our guests haven't stopped raving about them since. Every comment we've received has been overflowing with praise for the band's talent and the incredible atmosphere they created. Without a doubt, Joseph and Erika were the heartbeat of our wedding day, and we are endlessly grateful to them for making it as magical as it was. If you're looking for a wedding band that will elevate your day to unforgettable heights, look no further—they are simply the best!
