The BEST music vendor we could have asked for

We are truly grateful for Music in Tahoe for making our wedding the most epic party! We had Isaac as our dinner and reception DJ, and two live musicians - Lucas on the guitar and Karl on the saxophone - for our ceremony and cocktail hour. We have so many great things to say about all three of them.

My now husband and I share a deep bond over music and we knew we wanted a DJ who had the same love and passion for music as we do. Isaac was our guy - from the beginning he was very involved in getting a sense of our music taste, walking through song selections prior to the wedding and validating the timing of when songs would be played. He even remade the song we chose as our first dance to cut out the first verse (at our request) and made the intro flow into the first chorus perfectly. His execution was flawless and our guests could have danced all night. We received so many compliments on the music and we owe it all to Isaac.

We also want to give a big shout out to the live musicians, Lucas and Karl. Lucas is an incredibly talented guitarist. He learned the songs we wanted for our processional and bridal walk (in an impressively short amount of time) and played them live beautifully. Karl is also an amazing saxophonist. Both he and Lucas were the best duo for the live music played throughout our cocktail hour.

Talented Musicians and DJs - You Can't Go Wrong!

Music in Tahoe is the BEST! We had such a fantastic experience working with Isaac throughout the wedding planning process, and he really delivered on our wedding day! I really appreciated Isaac's flexibility as we changed our package multiple times before the wedding, ultimately deciding to add live musicians and extend the DJ service until midnight. Isaac was immensely helpful talking us through different options for our ceremony (did we want a pianist? saxophonist? violinist?), and the acoustic guitar & violin duo we decided on was absolutely beautiful. The musicians Isaac found were able to learn and play new songs for our ceremony, including an instrumental version of "Ave Maria" to accompany one of our friends as she sang (they were even willing to rehearse with her beforehand!). He also spent an hour on the phone with me a few weeks before the wedding as I explained exactly what kind of music I wanted at the reception. At the reception, Isaac was a skilled emcee; he knew how to make important announcements without disrupting the flow of the evening and was quick to adjust when timelines shifted and plans changed. He even let one of our friends use his guitar for a song performance. The dance floor was LIT all night, packed with people dancing and singing, and we heard from so many people that it was one of the most fun weddings they'd ever been to. Isaac also seamlessly transitioned from our outdoor reception to our indoor after-party without skipping a beat. We highly recommend Isaac and Music in Tahoe for your wedding or any other event!

Reads the crowd and starts the party

All I wanted for my wedding was a great dance party and Isaac delivered that. He had us pick songs we wanted to play and then mixed them into danceable tracks. He is the all in one package since he also sings and plays guitar.

Utilize his guitar and voice for your ceremony and cocktail hour and then let him light up the dancefloor later in the evening for a night you'll never forget! He is truly amazing!
