Variety was awesome to have as part of our wedding day! They came recommended from our venue so it…read morewas a no-brainer to go with them as we felt they would be most familiar with the flow of the day - which was 100% the case. Variety had a beautiful all-white DJ set up and we were also able to hired our live musicians through them, which was so helpful. (Saxophone during cocktail hour was PERFECTION). MC Ray and DJ Tom made the day completely effortless for myself and my husband. They played everything we wanted (BIG SHOUTOUT to playing Italian music throughout our Italian dinner - our favorite part of the night), seamlessly blended genres, and had people of all ages on the dance floor all night. Guests texted us the next day saying how they "haven't danced that much in years", "every song was a banger", and "the music was SO good". Thank you, Variety for an unforgettable night!

LUXE helped make my daughter's and son-in-law's wedding this past New Years Eve a once in a life…read moretime event that none in attendance will ever forget.. They came with rave reviews but they somehow were able to exceed expectations. Dealing with Frank prior to the wedding gave everyone a great sense of security. And he most certainly lived up to his promises. The dance floor was jammed from the opening moment. The flow throughout the evening was awesome and the range of music gave all attending reason to tell us this was the best band they had ever experienced at a reception. This was not just my daughter's wedding, it was a New Years Eve party and LUXE seized the evening. Their energy was palpable and they in turn fed off the crowds response. LUXE musically is superb but their personalities and interaction with the crowd made it that much more special. We can not recommend them with greater confidence. Thank you LUXE!

He didn't announce at the entrance of the newly married couple "Mr. & Mrs. ...." He said only their last name ...no presence. Run ... do not hire them. All the additional musicians hired were worthless. Singer had a bad voice ... saxophonist didn't know what to do! A disaster.

Shalom Orchestra just provided the music for my daughter's wedding and we could not have been more…read moredelighted. We hired them because we knew they would deliver a knock-out 40 minute hora. I will be honest and say that I hoped they could handle the more contemporary music, but I wasn't sure since I hadn't heard them live before. They delivered beyond what I could have wished for.... Their vocalists just rocked it, their musicians are top notch and they read the crowd perfectly. Each song they played was perfection. Eitan was kind, patient and flexible to work with, even coming up with two extra sound technicians for us at the last minute. I will be hiring them again, and again. They are the consummate party band!

Sam, our point of contact, was super communicative and made us feel very comfortable about their services. They were professional and organized, providing a music map app to streamline our preferences and minimize back-and-forth communication. Most interactions were via email, but they were always available for important phone calls when needed. On the wedding day, Isaac, our DJ, and the performers coordinated seamlessly with our wedding coordinators, and everything went smoothly. They were kind and professional, and their performance greatly enhanced the vibe of the night. The live saxophonist and percussionist playing along with Isaac kept our guests engaged and energized the room. The music selection was spot-on, adhering to our preferences perfectly. We absolutely recommend Dark Collective. They were fun to work with, delivered everything we asked for, and maintained clear communication throughout. There was no miscommunication, and they put on a great show. We would definitely hire them again. - Professional and organized with excellent communication. - Seamless coordination on the wedding day. - Live performance enhanced the atmosphere and kept guests engaged. Thank you Sam + Thank You Isaac + Thank You Dart Collective Team!!!

We were late to inquire, and after a great chemistry call, they locked it in within the week. * Had a reasonable rate and worked with us to make it happen. * Their interface for sending references and preferences was easy and integrated, and most importantly WORKED. Our songs got played perfectly on the day. * Used our inspiration and built on it in a way that made the dance floor electric. * Gracefully avoided requests, but allowed the ones we wanted. * Came with 3 set ups, so all our locations were pre-set up in every location. * Zero feedback, awkward "is this thing on" moments, or struggling to hear speakers, even when they're bad with holding the mic. From the music, to everything in between, you can't go wrong. We triple-bid the project, and Dart was easily our strongest choice.

I just had my DREAM WEDDING here. It was like a fairy tale. I would give it 10 stars if I could!…read more When I first started wedding planning, I agonized, BOY did I agonize over how to have a cost effective wedding in New York. My now husband and I are in our early/mid 30's and were paying for much of it ourselves with help from our moms. So while we had plenty of help, we did not have unlimited resources. So many reviews of NYC wedding venues say, "Oh, I had my fantasy wedding here!" Of course you did. We can all have the Manhattan wedding of our dreams with hundreds of thousands of dollars. Anyways, there are many blogs about having a New York wedding on a budget. Have your wedding in the park and then go to a nice alcohol free brunch! Have a potluck in the park! Just bring cute umbrellas and galoshes if it rains, don't worry, the pictures will be SOOO CUTE! Have a wedding at the courthouse and then hire a food truck to feed all your friends, yum and sure to impress hipsters everywhere. I know, have it on a random Wednesday afternoon! I poured through countless blogs and articles about having a wedding in Manhattan on a budget....And I was just like....no. First of all, my husband and I could not be further from "shabby chic." A farm or outdoor wedding with mason jars etc etc was just not going to work for us. (Not that that is usually any cheaper, don't be fooled!) I wanted the REAL DEAL. An aisle to walk down. A place where I could have live classical music during the ceremony. Saturday night. Dinner. Dancing. A place where I didn't need a rain plan. THE WHOLE KIT AND KABOODLE. Of course, my now husband would have been totally cool with just going to the courthouse and calling it a day, but while I am no bridezilla, I was having none of that. Everywhere I turned (looking online and making inquiries etc), the prices were out of our budget, and the venue often worked with exclusive vendors, locking you in to whatever they charged. I discovered Landmark on the Park while perusing the New York Wedding Guide "Splurge vs. Save" feature on venues. The Angel Orensanz Foundation was the "splurge", Landmark being the "save". A church wedding without ACTUALLY getting married in a church? SIGN ME UP. For about five thousand dollars, I looked no further. Seriously, I called, met Darius, and gave them our deposit right then and there. I did not shop around or visit any other place. IT IS GORGEOUS! And I mean come on-the whole church but not a church thing was perfect for a non practicing catholic bride and non practicing jewish groom getting married by their gay presbyterian aunt .They will even cover the Jesus washing feet mural and Tiffany alter for you. I could have an aisle to walk down and a beautiful acoustic for live classical music, AND have the reception and ceremony be in the same place. Yes please! They run a tight ship-they pipe and drape off the main part of the cathedral where the tables are for the reception, and the ceremony is in the front of the church. Later those chairs move to the dinner tables, and the ceremony area becomes the cocktail reception, and later the dance floor. No muss, no fuss, no big break between the ceremony and reception. Tables and piano included, no extra charge. They also include chairs but we rented smaller ballroom chairs from out caterer. Darius was a dream to work with every step of the way. Friendly, helpful, positive, pro-active. We were in such good hands and I could not be happier to have found this place. He was very responsive to all of our questions whenever we had them. While it was more work for me to have a venue that was not all inclusive, it allowed me to shop around and hire the vendors we wanted, many of whom were already dear friends, or recommended by friends. All of our friends and family kept saying they weren't expecting our wedding to be so "fancy". It truly had a grand feel to it, given the sheer size and how beautiful it looks at night with candles everywhere. And right off Central Park-it felt very much like US. Very New York, and all of our friends in the city could come without schlepping to some random midwestern suburb that neither of us visit any more. The bathrooms are a little small and not fancy-I only mention this for anyone who has a crazy mother who's going to go in there and get kooky about it. Also, you only get the venue from about 5-10 PM. People were definitely NOT ready to leave by 10, everyone was having such a great time. No big deal, I'd always rather leave people wanting more than have it get sloppy, but in hindsight I would have paid 500 extra to have the space until 11. Our wedding came in at around 30K for 100+ people smack in the middle of Manhattan, with all the fixings of a traditional wedding. And it was NICE with really and truly a high end feel to it. We have Darius and Landmark on the Park to thank and we are so grateful. It was absolutely perfect and has our highest recommendation.

Where do I begin? If you're looking for an event space, look no further. Landmark is IT…read more This was the first and last place we looked at to host our 135 person wedding. We knew from the minute we talked to Darius that planning an event here would be easy as pie. He is beyond helpful and will go out of his way to ensure your event goes off without a hitch. And he is one of the most professional vendors I have ever worked with. It's refreshing when you find someone who doesn't give you a hard time and who genuinely wants to see your event be the best it can be. Then the space itself...it's impressive, to say the least. It's beyond accommodating and spacious, and our guests couldn't stop talking about how cool and unique it was. Working with a good uplighting company can enhance it even further, but even if you can't do that, the setting is so gorgeous you won't have to worry about dressing it up too much. One of the best parts is that your rental fee includes SO MUCH. Unlike other raw spaces, which charge thousands for an empty room, Landmark saves you money in the long run by providing tables, chairs, pipe and drape, even theatrical lighting. Their staff is professional and quick. We had the ceremony and the reception in the same space, and there were no issues with turnaround time. Not to mention, the location is right across the street from Central Park! You can't ask for a better setting when it comes to wedding photos. Check out some of mine :) All in all, Landmark is truly a hidden gem that should be utilized by couples looking to add a unique flair to their wedding, without breaking the bank. I owe so much to Darius and his staff. You'll have to provide the other services (catering, DJ, etc) but knowing you've at least got the space under control is one less bit of planning stress you'll have to deal with. Feel free to DM me if you want to know more!
