Description

"Ed was a wonderful addition to our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He works closely with you, makes thoughtful recommendations and makes sure that every request is met. All of our song choices were played beautifully. Ed's friendly and professional manner was raved about by our guests and we look forward to having Ed at another future event."
-Kim A, Wedding Ceremony/Cocktail hour 10/2/2010

"I just wanted to take a minute to drop you a note and thank you for making our wedding a very special event. We appreciate the time you took to gather the songs that we wanted to hear for our first dance and throughout our dinner hour. We also appreciate you being flexible as we were changing music on the fly at the beginning. All in all it was a wonderful event and you made it very special for us."

-Jeff and Brenda, Wedding Ceremony/Reception dinner 10/6/2010

Ed was extremely professional. He arrived early and his set up seemed seamless. He was the perfect background for the event we had. He was very accomadating and I would definitely recommend him. His pricing was more then reasonable for his talent and time. Thanks Ed!

-Christina W, 10/23/2009, Wedding Reception, Hackettstown, NJ

It was such a nice touch and set the atmosphere for our wedding. We could not be happier with our decision to use Ed. -- Kristen P, Ocean City, NJ, 8/28/2010
  • Ed was extremely professional. He arrived early and his set up seemed seamless. He was the perfect background for the event we had. He was very accomodating and I would definately recommend him. His pricing was more then reasonable for his talent and time. Thanks Ed! -- Christina W, Hackettstown, NJ, 10/23/2009
