Our wedding was planned very quickly, and we didn't have a lot of time to pick songs or anything. We told Peter Foti what we wanted, what kind of music we liked, and he gave us some ideas for a first dance song. It all worked out very well - he read the crowd well, and everyone thought he did a great job. We danced our buns off!

Our DJ, J Boogz, was fabulous. He was extremely flexible with a last minute venue change and always available to discuss ideas or music changes. On the day of the event, J Boogz was energetic and entertaining - he kept our party dancing most of the night - from kids to the adults. I would definitely recommend him.

Road Soda was great and really kept the dance floor alive the etire night. I must have listened to 50 different bands before finding them as I was very picky. They were by far the tightest band by far!!

Our wedding band, Now and the Forevers, was the most-complimented attribute at our wedding. They sounded excellent, were accommodating with requests leading up to the event, and were approachable and helpful throughout the night. We appreciate the help Kevin at BE gave us in finding them..great job by all.

DJ Shyne (Jeff Mader) was amazing! My husband and I have very different tastes in music, so he was perfect. He mixed our own version of our first dance song to incorporate two different artists doing the same song so that we didn't have to choose between the two.

I learned about my DJ through Kevin at BE. Kevin got in touch with me quickly through Wedding Wire, listened to what we wanted for our music and the type of DJ we thought would work best for us and recommended DJ Shyne (Jeff Mader). Everyone at BE was friendly, helpful, and very responsive and flexible. If you need help picking a DJ, contact BE!

DJ Ryan was very pleasant to work with. From the initial consultation to the final wedding night, he was very organized, respectful, worked with our tastes in music while offering his own suggestions based on past experience, and most importantly, had people dancing all night. I only have good things to say.

Groove Authority was the BEST band we could have asked for. We received more comments on the amazing band than anything else! A couple people got their info because they NEEDED to have them at their own events. The energy this group brings is like no other! People were on the dance floor for every single song. My favorite part is that they dance a bit themselves! A very unique band with amazing voices, and a perfect choice of music. I was just as blown away as all of my guests. Behind the scenes they’re very professional and experienced. I would certainly suggest this band for anyone looking to have a lively event!

This band played at my sisters wedding a few months back, and everyone had a great time. The selections we right on point and everything just sounded seamless.

Rick Colbourne was an absolute DJ'ing genius. He was the most easy-going vendor we worked with - kind, prompt in communication, and relaxed. Our wedding was an amazing dance party - dance floor was packed for the entire time, no one wanted to leave. Rick was amazing.

Steve and The Band Brandy were fantastic.
We had some issues with the person in charge of the facility but Brandy stepped up and took control of the situation.
People are still talking about the band and how they got everyone (and I mean everyone) up and dancing.
We would highly recommend Steve and the Band for any event.

> Kevin was very pleasant and very persistent - it totally paid off and resulted in us going to the HardRock showcase in Boston. Hiring the band was the SINGLE BEST DECISION WE MADE REGARDING OUR WEDDING!! The best D.J. in the world wouldn't have been able to provide the same vibe and we were complemented by each and every guest - of all ages - how amazing the band was...the song selection, the musical quality, the singers, the look - everything was EXACTLY what we wanted! Kevin had DJ options for us too but convined us that a band was worth its weight in gold and he was sooo right - without the live band, we couldn't have had THE BEST WEDDING EVER!!!
The band itself 'Now and The Forevers' were FREAKING AMAZING!!!
They were really the only band that we saw at the showcase that even came close to what we were looing for, and frankly the only wedding band I've ever seen that didn't seem like a "wedding band"...my husband and I have eclectic music tastes and we were convinced that we couldn't have both the music we love and make it accessible to grandparents, parents and friends all in one place - but this band proved us wrong. I cant get over the song choices: David Bowie, Biz Markie, Nat King Cole, Adelle, The Beatles... b-sides Talking Heads?!!! are you kidding me?! AMAZING!!! Somehow they took their already amazing list of songs and narrowed it down to the most perfect set of songs that seemed tailor-made for us. SO, SO, GREAT! I hope someone else that we know hires them and then invites us to their wedding!

Rick was great. We chose him out of a list of several vendors and we are so happy that we did! He's a great guy and is great with kids.

DJ Shyne was an excellent DJ! He was always easy to get in touch with both in person and by e-mail, and he was very friendly, helpful, and easy to work with. He was helpful in offering suggestions for music and the order of events for our wedding ceremony without being pushy. For the reception he had a great DJ personality that wasn't too "out there" but also kept everyone having fun and dancing. We even got lots of great feedback from our wedding guests about how great a DJ he was. The charge for our reception also seemed very reasonable compared to other DJs we reasearched in the area. Highly recommended!

We were originally going to have a laptop set up but changed our minds at the last minute. We decided that we needed an Emcee to keep the flow of the event going. We went to one of the BE wedding open houses at the Hard Rock café in Boston – just to check it out. We met Jeff Mader who heads up the DJ team and he said that DJ Ryan was available on our wedding date. He gave us a great price - $1200 for 6 ½ hours. Ryan played music at our ceremony, during the cocktail hour, dinner and dancing. From the beginning, we loved Ryan. He got that we wanted specific music and that we were non-traditional (we played an instrumental version of Friday I’m in Love by the Cure for the bridal march). He listened to us but also shared his wisdom. He even drove down from New Hampshire on a rainy night to meet us at the venue. We had concerns about location of the DJ booth during the ceremony so we met to discuss. He even sent a text when he was running late. He was the only vendor to follow up with me the week of the wedding (he beat me to it).
We had one glitch: the mother/son song was the wrong file. His computer screen said it was the right song but the audio file was wrong. He was mortified and apologized profusely. He also gave us an additional 30 minutes to make up for it. My husband told him that he had given us a moment to remember and laugh about later. Most people didn't even notice. Had Ryan not been so attentive during the planning process, we might have been upset but we knew it was an honest mistake. We would still highly recommend DJ Ryan.
The music was fantastic. All of our guests were on the dance floor (people ranging from 30 to 65) to the point where there wasn't any room on it. People are still sending my parents emails about how much fun they had dancing. My hubby and I spent the night on the dance floor. It was awesome!

GP Was amazing!! Only thing I'd chage is have the band eat when everyone else did

DJ Erik was exactly what we were hoping for! He was such a nice guy to meet initially that we had a feeling he would follow through with a great performance, and he did. So easy to plan our wedding reception with. He did a perfect job making announcements, introductions and keeping the night moving along. He is articulate and fun! When it came time for the dancing to really start he kept the good songs coming and kept the dance floor full! DJ Erik showed up early, looked professional and was a pleasure to work with. I would Highly recommend him!!
