The song selections have ranged from the more traditional classical sounds to cool string covers of classic rock and even modern tunes! A bunch of us were impressed with their job and we had to ask what company they work with and it was Venus Ensembles. Some of them said they were Juliard trained which is like hiring a Rolls Royce. If you're looking for quality music for your wedding ceremony and your cocktail hour, look no further with Venus Ensembles!

I've seen Scott perform as both a solo guitarist and as part of a trio…read more As a solo artist, I saw him perform rock and funk classics from a diverse group of artists, including Stevie Wonder and the Lumineers. When he was with the trio, he played with a pianist and a bass player. All three sounded great together. I see that Scott Kacenga Music is listed under wedding planning--but I didn't see him play at a wedding. Although, I'm sure Scott's performance would serve as a nice addition to any formal/informal wedding.

Scott was great! We requested a specific song for when my wife walked down the aisle and he took…read morethe time to learn the song, tape himself playing it, and send us the video all before we even signed a contract with him! We had him on guitar along with a violinist from his company play during the processional at our wedding. The sound was perfect and we got a ton of compliments. He was also very communicative during the wedding planning process. I highly recommend him!

Despite how last-minute it was, he dove in head-first, learning the music we needed him to learn, accommodating our requests, and being flexible with our questions and changes. The music itself was played so beautifully (it brought my now-husband who never cries to tears!!) and perfectly, it felt like we hired him a year out as opposed to only a month. Thank you, Austin, for stepping in when we needed you and helping make our ceremony that much more special!

Nowhere on the website does it say how much the late fee would be. I explained that I was trying to persuade my son in continuing with the instrument - they did not care.

He responded to every email…read morepromptly, followed through on every request, and was consistently thoughtful, reliable, and incredibly easy to work with. And that was just leading up to the party! Once the party started, Jerry and his team were PHENOMENAL. The MC, DJ, and sports equipment were outstanding and completely transformed the evening. Jerry created a party where the adults were dancing and the kids were dancing--and everyone was having a spectacular time. It was amazing to witness. The energy in the room was incredible from beginning to end. The party was a huge success. My son ended the night by saying it was "the best night of his life." I cannot recommend Jerry Laskin highly enough. He is truly the best in the business, and if you are looking for someone to make your event unforgettable, hire Jerry. You will not regret it.
