    Cake cutting on the dance floor with All Access on stage.
    Mike B.

    Joel's 7-piece All Access dance band orchestrated and delivered an intimate, entertaining wedding evening for 80. Ken & Jason broke out the Guitar & Clarinet for the actual nuptial including Here Comes the Bride! The guests followed them to cocktails and Jason picked up his Saxophone to accompany Ken's guitar in an hour of lite jazz. At dinner, Mastermind Joel Nelson emceed the evening, ruled the keyboards and was joined by big Brad on trumpet, awesome Andy on drums, and lovely singers Vanessa and Peggy, front & center. After 5 1/2 hours, the band left everyone charged up, worn out or standing in awe at their performance. Well done, thanks for the prep, engagement and responsiveness to all your new fans. Oh, your tuxes and black dresses raised the bar for class and sass. Thanks!

    Dueling Piano
    Glen D.

    Joel and Daniel were excellent! I called them last minute on a Thursday to perform on Monday and they were there on time. The Dueling Piano was very good. The talent and stamina needed to sign and entertain everyone for 3 hours straight is amazing. Everyone enjoyed the event and were talking about it for days.

    DJ Roy working it out for our first dance.  He did a great job blending our two songs together, :-)!!!

    See all

    Our one request was to have a party and get everyone up to the dance floor after dinner, and that was accomplished!

Rigo was my main contact, and he was so friendly, caring, and incredibly easy to communicate with. Our venue had very poor cell service, which made coordinating a surprise performance a bit tricky--but Rigo went above and beyond. He even called ahead of time to make sure he had the exact location and understood where he needed to be so everything would go smoothly. Despite the challenges, they showed up right on time, patiently waited for the perfect moment, and completely made the bride's day. It was such a special surprise, and they executed it flawlessly. On top of that, they played an extra song so the couple could have a first dance moment--which wasn't even planned--and it ended up being one of the most memorable parts of the night. We will absolutely be hiring Rigo and the group again in the future. Highly, highly recommend!

    Midori was super easy to work with from start to finish. We found them through our wedding planner,…read moreand the whole process was very straightforward. They send over a sheet with their music selections, you fill out what you want, and send it back about a month before the wedding. One thing I'll say is that the music sounded even better in person than in the samples. So many of our guests commented on how cool it was and how much it added to the atmosphere. For our 2-hour City Hall wedding, it was honestly perfect. It really fills up the space and makes everything feel a lot more grand and special without feeling over the top. Based on their samples and advice from some of our musician friends, we decided to go with the trio for a fuller sound, and I'm really glad we did. Highly recommend going that route if it fits your budget.

    We used Corelli Strings for our wedding ceremony at SF City Hall and we were absolutely blown away…read more The space would have felt so empty without music, and since speakers aren't allowed at City Hall, having live violin and cello was truly the perfect choice. Their performance added so much elegance, emotion, and romance to our ceremony. The sound filled the rotunda beautifully and created the exact atmosphere we were hoping for. So many of our guests came up to us afterward raving about how amazing they were and how much the music elevated the entire experience. If you're getting married at SF City Hall or hosting any special event and want live music that makes a lasting impression, Corelli Strings is the way to go. They truly enhanced one of the most important moments of our lives and we couldn't recommend them more highly!

I knew exactly that I wanted to walk down the aisle to a violin playing in the background. There's something about live music, especially strings that add so much elegance and romance to the setting. For the most part, I worked only with Daphna from beginning to end. Bruce showed up ready to go at the wedding. Daphna was very professional and so pleasant to work with from the get go. Our process consisted of an initial meeting, which was a phone call in our case, and a final phone call closer to the wedding day to finalize music selections. We were not only limited to these 2 meetings, she was also available in between those times if we had any questions and she was always very responsive. Her vast knowledge in music was helpful when we couldn't decide for our recessional song. Additionally, she was more than willing to listen to our ideas and learn new music if needed. Her years of experience showed in the way she handled our questions (lots of it) and the outcome of our ceremony. I still get chills when I reflect back standing in my bridal room waiting to come out and I hear Daphna and Bruce start to play Pachebel's Canon in D. I couldn't be happier and I'm so happy I found them!

Our guests loved them, and they got super excited when they played the Game of Thrones theme song. Daphna and Bruce, thank you so much for making our day special!
