Wedding•Reviewed on June 21, 2014•From North Bergen, NJ
Jay and Elysa Hochman are an amazing guitar duo! The guests and even the owners of the wedding venue were raving about them long after our event ended. They played before and during our ceremony as well as during the cocktail hour and their performance was simply perfect! I even requested that they arrange and learn a song they hadn't played before for my entrance (during the ceremony) and they simply created a magical moment for my husband and I that we will never forget! I highly recommend this vendor to anyone looking for an amazingly talented and classy duo for their next event. Michele & Jack

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 17, 2011•From Brooklyn, NY
Highly recommend this talented trio! For anyone looking for beautiful music to accompany any occasion, look no further than this group. Their music appealed to everyone, young and old, from many backgrounds. They were very professional from the start. They were very flexible, changing locations mid-way through the performance to accommodate the party, and also had a wonderful sense for the appropriate volume. Most importantly, the music was beautiful. My only regret is that I was too busy to sit and watch and listen while they played; I'm glad that my guests did, and they only had great things to say. Five stars all around for this group!

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on June 18, 2011•From Fair Haven, NJ
We hired Jay and Elysa to play during the ceremony and cocktail hour of our wedding. Not only were they helpful, accommodating, and easy to talk to during the booking process, but they also put on an amazing show! We got married in my parents' backyard and the neighbors (who were not even at the wedding) said that the music was so beautiful that they sat outside their houses to enjoy it as well! My mom proclaimed that the money we spent to hire the guitarists was, "the best spent money for the entire wedding!" We strongly recommend that you hire this duo to play at your event!
