From the first note of your ceremony to the last song of the night
We handle every part of your wedding’s music—from the ceremony and cocktail hour to dinner and dancing—so you can relax and enjoy the moment. Just tell us your favorite songs, artists, and genres, and we’ll design a customized soundtrack that fits your style, keeps the energy flowing, and packs the dance floor all night.
Reception Ensembles
The Jazz Trio can be used for Cocktails and Dinner. They become part of the 8 or 11-Piece Orchestra. If you want to start dancing right away, you can use the Orchestra for both dinner and dancing with the Dancing Between Courses Schedule. The 11-Piece adds Trumpet, Trombone and 3rd Vocalist.
Ceremony Ensembles
These are separate musicians from those who play for your reception. You’ll get musicians who are experts in ceremony music. They will play until guests leave the ceremony room. The jazz trio starts at the beginning of your cocktails in the other room.

What Our Couples Say
DAVID LOVES HIS WORK
"Working with David was so easy and a breath of fresh air. Usually, I felt like with other vendors I had to pull information from them, however, with David, he was reaching out to us first and giving us all the info we needed.
He was so quick to respond to all our questions as well. I knew we made the right decision for our music with the way David handled everything leading up to the wedding.
David is so passionate about his work and loves what he does – it made the experience 10x more enjoyable.
The band was absolutely amazing and kept everyone on the dance floor all night long! Many of our guests came up to us after to let us know this was the most fun wedding they have ever had at a wedding in a long time – all thanks to david and his amazing, talented artists!
The investment into a band for your wedding is 100% worth it if you hire DRS Music!"
UNREAL TALENT!
"WOW! David Rothstein Band exceeded all our expectations at our wedding. If you want a packed dance floor, amazing talent, and a fun time, then you should book DRS! The vocal talent of the band is UNREAL! The sax player came into the dance floor and pumped everyone up while the band played SHOUT! They were interactive and I have never seen another wedding band do anything like this before.
My number one request was for a packed dance floor and DRS delivered! David gave us really great advice to make sure we got exactly what we wanted at our wedding. Planning with him was so easy - he always answered our emails in a timely manner and was willing to jump on a call whenever we had questions.
We are so grateful our venue recommended DRS and can't imagine our wedding without them! Run don't walk to book them, they're amazing!"
GUESTS ARE STILL RAVING
"We truly cannot say enough amazing things about David and his team! From start to finish, they absolutely blew us and our guests away.
One of the big reasons we chose DRM was because of the care and time that David took to truly get to know us. On our first call he was asking about US.
And David, wow, truly phenomenal. Warm, charismatic, and so in tune with the crowd. He kept the night flowing beautifully, hyped up the dance floor when it mattered most, and made sure we felt relaxed and cared for the entire time.
The band itself was outstanding!! They are talented, lively, and so fun. Our guests haven’t stopped raving about how amazing the music was!
Truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding."
WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND
"We can’t say enough good things about David and the band — they were absolutely AMAZING!
David truly made the night so fun and unforgettable.
We originally met at an Elton John concert, and in the most thoughtful surprise, he gifted us an Elton John poster with a picture of us on it for all our wedding guests to sign — such a special keepsake that we will treasure forever.
From start to finish, the band brought the energy and kept the party going all night long.
David’s attention to detail and organization really helped take the pressure off us and allowed us to fully enjoy the night.
Thank you for going above and beyond — you will come HIGHLY recommended from us to anyone looking to throw an incredible party!
Thank you so much for your performance!
It was everything we wanted it to be."
BAND BROUGHT THE ENERGY!
One of the best decisions we made during our planning process was hiring David Rothstein Music! The music was incredible and the band brought the energy!
The band played all our requests, and learned a number of songs for our wedding including our First Dance!
David even worked with a family member of ours who sang for the ceremony.
From the beginning, David was so helpful working with us on all aspects of our evening. He gave so many great suggestions on music and timing. He was always responsive and checked in frequently.
Thank you, David, for helping to make our wedding such an amazing night!
FANTASTIC ENERGY!
"My husband and I got married 4/12/25 at the Hilton. We were both very busy during the planning process, have been to a million weddings together, and are very passionate about our favorite musical artists and albums.
David was recommended to us by our planner, and we immediately hit it off with him. He is so kind, deeply invested in his couples and their events, and takes great pride in his work and his company.
He was thoughtful in getting to know us and our families, practiced pronouncing everyone's names to perfection, and donated all our flowers to a nursing home the next day.
We are so glad we went with DRS for the wedding, his team is worth every penny and really moves a wedding from being a good time to absolutely epic! We love you David, thank you!"
BEST DECISION WE MADE
"Our wedding reception was an absolute blast, and a huge part of that was thanks to the incredible performance by the wedding band. The musicians are HIGHLY talented and they know exactly how to keep the energy up throughout the night!
Leading up to the wedding, we had several meetings with David. It was clear he wanted every detail of our music to be perfect. He was very open to our preferences and made sure to add all of our favorite songs into the setlist.
Hiring David Rothstein Music was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. They not only met but exceeded our expectations, and we’re still receiving compliments from our guests about how amazing they were. If you’re looking to create an unforgettable atmosphere at your wedding or any event, look no further – this band is truly exceptional!"
