We had a string quartet for the ceremony, and they were lovely. Then we had a small DJ set-up for the cocktail hour which offered a little background music without being obtrusive. The DJ and master of ceremonies for the reception were very high-energy (because that's what we requested), and they kept people dancing. They had an excellent mix of music, and used ALL of our suggestions. Also, they were very accomodating with last-minute changes or additions, such as making announcements and being creative and interactive with the crowd. They even made my husband dance to earn the privilage of taking off my garter. It was a fantasitc night and hardly anyone spent the whole night sitting! They were too busy dancing!! They even threw in extra lighting that made for a very nice atmosphere.

They were the best DJ company ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We had the carribean musice for our cocktail which was a hit because it was something different. We upgraded to the plasma tvs which I think was the best thing we ever did cause all the guests loved it

I was so happy w/ our DJ & the MC. They weren't corny or cheesy. Our DJ met w/ us in his office, we had a great rapport. I felt like he took the time to get to know us, what we are like, what we were looking for. He made great suggestions, he was detailed, & everyone had such a great time. The music is key. I was so happy we went w/ them.

All I can say is Amazing. They do live music as well as DJ's. I had a dj with a keyboardist, male vocalist, sax player, percussions, lighting, as well as an MC. The owner, Tony, is wonderful and so is the entire staff. They are friendly and always made you feel like part of the family.

I did not need to search various DJ companyies or even know someone personally who used Bravura to book them. I saw them at my RH bridal showcase and was immediately impressed and sold on them based on their presentation and by spending a few minutes speaking to them. I knew they would be it. I feel very strongly against the cheesy, loud and showy DJ presentation which it seems many out there go with. Bravura is against that also. They are very professional, and have a classy presentation. They are all well spoken and take pride in what they do and realize that a wedding is an adult event and not a super Sweet 16. And their price was very reasonable and competitive. And they offer live entertainment... something most DJ's do not offer. I never dreamed that I would be able to afford a jazz trio for my cocktail hour but they made it possible. They sounded amazing and guests were very impressed. The reception was a hit as well. People danced all night. Me and my husband had a VERY hard time deciding on a wedding song and at our final meeting with them, they patiently spent 2 long hours sitting with us trying to find the perfect song. The only thing I would have liked different was that we did not meet with our Emcee prior to the wedding. That is the only reason I did not give 5 stars. This is something I should have requested myself and I'm sure they would have accomodated my request. I think it's important to meet with your emcee so that he gets an understanding for himself of what it is you want and what you are looking for. I dont know if it was not meeting with him or our late decision making of wedding songs that caused confusion with our spotlight dance but after all was said and done, it was a great success and you realize that some things may not go as perfect as planned. Guests had a great time as well as bride and groom! My brother will be meeting with Bravura for his upcoming wedding!

Bravura Entertainment was absolutely fabulous. The day of our wedding they surprised us with the TV's and the photographer that we wanted, but could not get because we called the very last minute. We wanted high energy and that is what we got. Our friends and family still say that it was the best wedding of the year, they all had a blast. I highly recommend Bravura Entertainment to DJ your wedding. If you are looking for a band they have musicians and singers as well.

Where do I begin??? This is the vendor that I was most excited for, and now that the wedding reception is over I can honestly say that BRAVURA exceeded all of our expectations. We received so many compliments during our cocktail hour with the cityscapes jazz group. The reception was unbelievable, we are so happy we went with all the extras at the reception. The percussionist was awesome and my grandmother was dancing with the saxophonist. All of our requests were played and the energy was crazy. I highly recommend BRAVURA, they are definitely the way to go!!!!

I can't praise them enough. They had everyone dancing all night long! They totally respected our wishes, and when something questionable was requested they asked permission first. I have received so many compliments from guests about how wonderful they were.

This review is for Raul, our DJ/MC: Raul was absolutely amazing, super friendly, patient, and accommodating. I had not met him before the wedding (I only dealt with Tony and Aaron setting up the arrangements) and was initially unsure of whether he would be good, but he exceeded my expectations. He accommodated my crazy cousins' request to put on a spontaneous choreographed dance number (as a "gift" to me, haha). He played the photo montage that my sister made, and then adeptly adjusted when it was clear that it was not professionally finished and WAY too long. He was helpful, friendly, fun, and sweet, signing our guest book and generally being an absolute dream to work with. No complaints, Raul was fantastic! On the management side, Tony was a very good, charming salesperson, although I didn't get the best vibes from Aaron in either of our 2 meetings with him (a bit condescending when I said our music choices included country, and generally just not as personable as Tony). Overall, Bravura delivered on their promise and kept the party going. Thanks, Raul!

My guests were on the dance floor all night. They did not play some requested songs and played a lot from a genre we asked them to stay away from. However, everyone loved them and had a GREAT time!!

We were very disappointed with Bravura. We were expecting high energy dancing all day long and got the complete opposite. Their ceremony music was great as well as the live steel drum for cocktail hour but when it came to the reception there was a lot of silence in between songs, half of our requested songs were not played, they played genre's we requested them NOT to play, and the crew went missing half the time and my bridal attendant searched for them and found them on cigarette breaks (OFTEN). Our MC left halfway through our wedding without saying anything and left two young kids to continue playing music who were extremely rude to our guests and rolled their eyes and complained when they requested songs that they had to "search" for. Overall, very disappointed, I would not recommend them and have steered many couples away from them. Don't be deceieved by their showcases!!!
