    Vineyard Wedding 9.23.23

    Working with Jon and J-Riz Entertainment for our wedding was truly a pleasure! From initial meetings to final details they were super attentive and communicative. They helped us out with everything from the sound system for the ceremony, to entertainment for our cocktail hour and the DJ for the reception. It was all so amazing and the best day ever thanks to them!!!

    Annual Company Party

    I was lucky enough to have John and his band provide the entertainment for our annual company-wide party this year. They rocked! Individually, they are incredibly talented musicians, and as a band they are incredible! John is thorough, prompt and attentive. Wouldn’t have another band play an event of mine!

    Best Band EVER!

    J-Riz is THE BEST band around. Jonny is so easy to work with and he made the planning process stress-free. We ended up using 2 pieces during the ceremony, 3 during cocktail hour, and 11 during the reception. They knew exactly what to play to keep our guests on the dance floor all night and we got so many comments about how good they were. I've recommended J-Riz to all my friends!

    J-Riz Entertainment

    My wife and I cant say enough great things about J-Riz entertainment. From the multiple meetings we had together to the conference call the day before our wedding to make sure everything was 100% set it was an amazing experience. The band really made our wedding the greatest night of our lives and we had so many of our guests reach out to tell us how amazing they were. I would recommend J-Riz to everybody, they were the absolute best.

    Amazing wedding band

    Hiring J-Riz Entertainment for our wedding band was one of the best decisions we made. Jonny was incredibly professional and responsive during the planning process and coordinated timelines with our many vendors on the day of. Our guests were on the dance floor all night and are still complimenting the band's performance. Highly recommend adding on the cold sparklers for an extra special touch!

    Best Wedding Band...Hands Down...No Questions Asked

    We first heard Jon's band perform at our friend's wedding four years ago - and they CRUSHED it - so leaving that wedding, my wife and I (still just dating at the time) promised ourselves we would use him for our wedding whenever that happened. He was that good, and we had no doubt. Fast forward two years when we started planning our wedding, and the first call we made - before caterers, photographers, anyone - was to Jon to lock in his 11-piece band for the most important night of our lives. It was the best decision we made...

    Jon's band was ELECTRIC and brought a whole new energy to our wedding day. They had every guest - even grandparents - on the dance floor all night, had our friends singing a capella mid-dinner with an acoustic electric guitar, and brought the house down with every dance set throughout the night. The instrumentals for the ceremony, jazz trio over cocktail hour, and full 11-piece squad were the highlight of the night. Months later, our guests keep talking about how good the band was...two of our guests have already booked him for 2023!

    Outside of having the best wedding band imaginable, Jon knows someone for everything...he hooked us up with dessert for 150 guests, a late-night food truck surprise, and a silent disco to close things our strong at the after party. And on top of all that, he is a blast to work with - he loves what he does, and brings contagious energy that makes all the planning fun.

    We could not recommend Jon and his band more, and can't wait to watch him bring the house down again and again for our friends' weddings in the years to come.

    This band is awesome! They have the perfect mix of energy and quality. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They even created a custom finale to end the perfect night!

    Amazing to work with !!

    Jon is totally amazing to work with. Due to the pandemic we had no choice but to postpone our wedding, so we had a small intimate one in our backyard and one at a venue later on in the year. We used him for BOTH and he did not disappoint. He was so accommodating and really made everything so perfect for us. He helped us not only with a dj but also helped us with photography and a florist recommendation as well. He really made planning our wedding so easy. I would recommend him again and again !!

    Amazing…..want to book him again for anything!

    JRIZZ and his team were AMAZING! From the start Jon and I hit it off and I knew he was gunna kill it at my wedding! He was so easy going and worked with me every step of the way through the planning process, set lists and then being post poned due to Covid. He was always available when I had questions by phone or text and I can’t even tell you how amazing he was the night of our wedding! He kept the crowd dancing the entire time and was super considerate in sharing some time with our Italian accordion player who was supposed to only do a few songs during cocktail hour but got stuck in traffic! I want to get married again just so that I can hear his band play but I would hire him again in a heartbeat no matter how much it costs!

    Outstanding Band! First Class Experience!

    My party was more than 2 months ago, and I'm still hearing from guests how incredible the band was. Jon Rizzo and his team made the entire process from planning to execution accommodating, comfortable, easy, exciting, and wildly fun! Each team member felt like a good friend who was looking to ensure that my wife, I, and our guests had the best night of our lives. They learned and performed songs for our party, had an outstanding repertoire of their own, and were professional, on time, and delivered an outstanding product. In COVID times, I can imagine many people have very valid safety concerns (I do! I work in an ER)- J-Riz entertainment has you covered. He and his team adhere to strict safety protocols, and my guests and I had not a concern in the world! Thank you so much to J-Riz Entertainment for bringing a kick ass band to play at our wedding and for keeping the party going all night long! I would recommend this band to anyone for any occassion.

    Best band we’ve ever heard

    I’ve been to a ton of weddings in my life and seen a lot of bands play. When we were planning our wedding we spent a lot of time researching bands and when we saw the video of J Riz entertainment, we were floored. Experiencing them live at our wedding was better than we could have ever expected. They absolutely rocked the house and almost everyone who came to the wedding has reached out to tell us how great the band was. Highly recommend Jon Rizzo and his band to any couple getting married.

    Highly recommended!

    Working with J-Riz was such a great experience and my husband and I are so very happy with our decision to use them for our wedding.

    First, Jon is so personable and easy to work with. He did a great job balancing our needs/wants with his knowledge and experience. He knew the recipe for great entertainment and created a schedule for the day with both his expertise and what we were looking for. He listened to our ideas and worked with us along the way to incorporate them into his system, and we were very pleased with the results.

    Second, he was considerate of our budget. We told him what we were able to pay and he was able to create multiple options within our budget. He also found ways to save money and also where to get the most bang for our buck!

    Third, simply put, the band rocked. Our guests raved about the music. The band kept our guests on the dancefloor and kept the party going through the night. We highly recommend this band for anyone’s wedding. We put our trust into their set list but Jon asked for specific songs we wanted to play and which we wanted to avoid. We were very happy with the music selection throughout the night.

    In conclusion, we highly recommend J-Riz for anyone’s wedding. We would emphasize how easy it was to work with him, how he made a night within our budget and how much fun everyone had on the dancefloor. Highly recommend!

    Best Night Ever!

    We are so glad that we hired J-Riz Entertainment for our October wedding. We had a live singer at cocktail hour, DJ & MC during the reception, along with a live drummer. Everything was absolutely incredible. I honestly can not imagine the music at our wedding being any better than it was. The MC had the crowd up and dancing and his energy was contagious. The song selection was incredible and the live drummer was amazing! I'm so impressed by the show that they put on. The timing of everything was great and the execution was flawless. Thank you so much for creating an absolutely amazing evening! :)

    The best of the best!

    Johnny was amazing to work with - we were very fortunate to have had him be such a special part of our day. He was always responsive and truly cared about what we wanted for our wedding day! During the first time meeting us, Johnny was attentive and showed his loud excitement! As the wedding got closer he went above and beyond to make sure that we felt comfortable with everything that the band was going to do. It was amazing the day of the wedding to feel so comfortable with him and his band. The band members came out to the crowd and truly blew everyone away by their performance!

    Off the charts band

    John and his band “brought it”! The music and energy level was through the roof. We had guests of all ages at our September 10 wedding and the band catered to them all and the dance floor was packed the entire night. At the end of the night the guests started shouting “one more song!’ That says it all!! A month later our guests are still calling and texting to comment on the performance of the band.
    Our wedding was postponed due the pandemic and John kept the same contract in place and was as professional and organized as can be. He took the stress off of us by creating our band time line and had it down to a science. He treated us like we were family and always made himself available
    For any questions we had. It is rare today to find a company that delivers on every level but John and his band did just that!! Thank you thank you!

    Great experience!

    Jonny is awesome! He was so great to talk to and plan out all the music details for our wedding. We had a DJ, MC, violinist, pianist, and a videographer with an awesome drone at our wedding. They were all punctual, very respectful, and the music was great all around- all of our guests had an amazing time! I would definitely recommend J-Riz Entertainment for any occasion.
