My wife and I had a vision for our small, intimate wedding, and beautiful, heartfelt music played with soul was at the center of our plan. The moment we spoke with Levi J, we knew we had found the perfect person for the job. We never needed to reach out to any other artist - we instantly felt confident about our choice, and Levi J delivered with so much authenticity that we feel like we not only had beautiful music at our wedding, but we also made a real friend. Levi J was patient and open when it came time for us to prepare a song list. He learned all kinds of new songs and played them beautifully. He accepted last-minute additions with enthusiasm and excitement, and was always available to chat with us about our plans. Levi J also helped make speeches and AV presentations work smoothly and with a smile. The most amazing thing about Levi J is that he is a truly talented musician who plays from the heart. We felt he connected with us, our families, and the vibe of our wedding from the first moment, and we can't wait to have another opportunity to experience his music.

Some bands are a hit or miss, but this one was definitely a hit! I will certainly be hiring them for future events. They were so much fun and I highly recommend them. You will not be disappointed.

The music created such a welcoming, heartfelt atmosphere, and it truly ended up being one of my favorite parts of the day.

We hired Victor Valencia, and from the very first chord he played, he set the tone for an unforgettable night. His incredible guitar skills, infectious energy, and fantastic song choices had the crowd completely captivated -- and before long, everyone was up dancing, singing along, and cheering like we were at a private concert. What really stood out was his ability to connect with the crowd. He read the vibe of the evening perfectly and kept the energy high from start to finish. Whether it was classic rock, pop hits, Santana, or even romantic songs, Victor performed with passion and flair. By the end of the night, guests were chanting for "one more song" -- and he delivered, big time! Beyond the performance, Victor was professional, friendly, and a total pleasure to work with. He helped make the party not just fun, but truly special. We're still getting messages from guests raving about how amazing our party was and how awesome the live entertainment Victor delivered was. If you're looking for a talented guitarist who can light up the room and turn a celebration into something extraordinary, Victor Valencia is your man.

Back when we were planning our wedding, he came highly recommended by staff from the Cliff's. Very glad we made the decision to choose him. Given that my wife and I live up north in San Jose, I thought it would be difficult to communicate with Jeffrey about our musical needs. I was delightfully wrong about that because Jeffrey is great with staying in contact with his clients. I believe 2 weeks before our wedding, I contacted Jeffrey and inquired if we could change the song of our recessional to the Game of Thrones theme (nerd alert) and he was kindly accepting of the request. Bonus: we inquired about a guitar and violin pairing - Jeffrey was able to delight our request with the likes of his daughter playing on violin. Highly recommend the duet as it sounds so beautiful. Our guests were entirely pleased and also impressed, especially for the GoT exit. Thanks again Jeffrey!!

Working with Dan was truly a great experience and he and the team at Come Alive Entertainment were extremely helpful every step of the way. He personally helped us build out our music plan for the big day and provided his expertise whenever we needed some extra help. Dan's live music during our ceremony is something that we will always remember and brought tears to our eyes and goosebumps to our arms. His music helped make the ceremony as special as we hoped for and those songs will forever be a part of our lives. We both will never forget our first dance and singing along as Dan performed exactly what we wanted. That moment is truly a highlight of the wedding and of our lives. After playing live music throughout the ceremony and cocktail hour, Dan helped us craft a great playlist for our dinner service and was the best DJ as we switched to the dancefloor. He made sure the dancefloor was packed all night long and played every song we wanted while also finding the perfect mix of songs for our guests. Dan was able to pivot when needed and was there for us in a way that we will always remember. Not only was Dan the best musician, emcee and DJ we could have hoped for, he is such a kind person and we could tell that he truly wanted to help make our wedding as special as possible. Thank you so much to Dan and everyone at Come Alive Entertainment for making our wedding so memorable and for giving us memories that we will always cherish. We highly recommend choosing Come Alive Entertainment for your wedding or special event.
