Entertainment so memorable that hundreds of people are still cheering from the stands.

"Cherry Crush was absolutely phenomenal for our wedding! The boring stuff first - they were very professional and super easy and efficient to work with. Marty was extremely communicative before our wedding to ensure the flow of the night/songs would be perfect, and they worked with our venue to make sure everything was set up — which made our lives easier and gave us one less thing to worry about. And before they started playing the lead singer triple checked with us to make sure we were all on the same page. They also did a wonderful job emceeing during the start of the reception. We truly felt like we were in great hands. Now, the fun stuff - they were an absolute riot once the party started! We have not stopped getting kudos from friends and family since the wedding. They play such a great range of songs and kept all guests young and old on the dance floor. (I think I ascended to a new plane of existence when they mashed up Check Yes, Juliet into Mr. Brightside.) They are incredibly talented, better than any other wedding band we've seen before. All in all, one heck of a party - thank you Cherry Crush!"

We cannot rave about Cherry Crush enough! All of our guests were on the dance floor the entire night, they absolutely nailed it. From the very beginning, Marty was extremely helpful and answered all our questions, and guided us through the process. Thank you so much for helping make our wedding reception exactly what we envisioned, one EPIC night!

Cherry Crush went above and beyond. They made our wedding phenomenal. They went out of their way to coordinate learning and playing our first dance with my brother from across the country. Every person we talked to said that Cherry Crush was incredible and made the party. The energy they brought was unreal. We will definitely be hiring again! Thank you for making our special day PERFECT.

"Absolutely amazing If we could give a million stars we would. Cherry Crush was more than incredible and we would recommend and suggest them to anyone! Wedding, reunions - whatever. They’re the band you absolutely want. From the start Marty was incredibly kind, attentive and professional. He answered all of our questions, was so reassuring, took time to walk through my entire reception plan and vision with me and made suggestions and recommendations I probably would not have thought of. The band learned our first dance song and it brought me to tears. Their version is now my favorite version and it created such a special moment for us at our wedding. Prior to our ceremony Caitlyn was so calm and patient - she walked through everything she had to emcee and even proactively added call outs for our photobooth, QR code and after party. It was raining before I walked down the aisle and she offered me such kind words of encouragement, that meant so much to me because truly that was out of the scope of what she had to do and she still did it. Our guests are still raving about the energy the band brought, the incredible set list and how much fun the band was. Thank you all again for everything we can’t wait to see you all soon!"

We booked Cherry Crush through ECE and oh my god, they MADE the wedding! My husband and I were adamant that we didn't want a typical "wedding band" - we wanted more current songs, like a band you'd see at a bar. And Cherry Crush DELIVERED! They know all the classic wedding songs, all the current hits, and even have some awesome mashups. They read the room so well and I was so excited to hear what song they were going to play next - every one was great. Everyone was dancing and I didn't leave the dance floor all night. So many people were raving about them. They learned our first dance song without us asking and learned Taylor Swift's Cruel Summer for me - which was amazing! The singer, Katie, was an awesome MC as well. She had everything so well organized throughout the night and kept everyone hyped up!! The band never even took a break - they just go down to 2 while the other 2 eat dinner. If you want a super fun band that will keep everyone dancing all night, I can't recommend them enough!

The Cherry Crush Band were beyond what we could ask for in a wedding band. Marty was easy to talk to and extremely helpful with planning our wedding day music. The band kept everyone dancing the whole night - their energy was contagious. I HIGHLY recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding band.

Fantastic band performance. Only positive feedback from ALL guests. The core 5 are all great and we chose to augment with 2 additional band members to complement the sound with a male voice and a saxophone. Recommend WITHOUT ANY RESERVATION. Looking forward to finding them out and about at public venues.

We are so lucky to have found Cherry Crush Band to perform at our wedding! They sounded incredible and had every on on the dance floor the entire night. Truly everyone we spoke to said it was the best wedding they had been to and the most fun they've had on a dance floor. Not to mention everyone in the band is so kind and easy to work with leading up to our event (even with a tight timeline of scheduling 2 months before our wedding date)!

"HIRE CHERRY CRUSH FOR YOUR WEDDING. IT IS THE BEST DECISION I MADE. Cherry Crush made my wedding on 10/28/2023 the best day of my life. They brought SO much energy and the dance floor was packed for 4 hours straight. They played so many different genres that had people of all ages dancing until they were sore. My husband and I got on stage for a few sing-a-long songs and went crowd-surfing because the energy levels were so high. Us and all our guests were raving about the band all night. On top of that, the band was super communicative leading up to the event, learned new songs for our first dances, and kept us updated on their preparation for the event so I was never worried about logistics. I even had a few last-minute changes for the ceremony that they accommodated with ease. It's hard to put into words how grateful I am that I hired Cherry Crush and I cannot recommend them enough!"

"The Cherry Crush Band played at my wedding in Beach Haven, NJ and they were AWESOME. We had picked them without ever seeing them play live before or ever hearing of them, but it was the absolute best choice we made for our wedding! Marty, the band drummer and main of contact through the planning process, was a pleasure to work with - super responsive, checked in with us at all the right times, and made us feel super comfortable that we were in great hands with him and the band for the day of the wedding. The entire band is extremely talented. They played songs outside their song list that we had requested and they had super high energy throughout the whole night. I wondered how it would be possible to appeal to our crowd of all different ages without catering too much towards one genre of music, but Cherry Crush nailed it. They knew exactly how to read the room in their song choices and our dance floor was completely packed the entire night. If you're looking for a live band with high energy , I would recommend Cherry Crush Band !!"

Cherry Crush Band was amazing at our wedding! We really enjoyed working with Marty and the rest of the band. They were very easy to communicate with and worked well with us throughout the planning process. At the wedding, all of our guests were raving about the band and how great they were. They provided a flawless show that I know our guests will be talking about for years to come! We love Cherry Crush and would recommend them to play at any of our friend's and family's weddings!

Cherry Crush was so amazing for our wedding, we have zero regrets booking them! They had so much energy, kept people on the dance floor, and learned our first dance and mother/son and father/daughter dances and played them beautifully. We have so many people asking us for their information to pass along.

This band was exactly what we wanted for my daughter's wedding. They were professional and not only helped to pace the reception but kept the enthusiasm and fun going throughout the night. We loved having the solo acoustic guitar during cocktail hour. The band's energy was amazing. They are very talented and I have received so much positive feedback from guests about the band. It was nice to see everyone- all ages- dancing and having a great time. Thanks!!

I wish you had an option for "AMAZING" for overall experience. Marty and Cherry Crush were FANTASTIC...so accommodating and so easy to work with. They performed all of our requests flawlessly...some we didn't even give them until a couple of days before...from country music to pop and old classics to Metallica!!! And Katie's energy was contagious! Everyone was dancing and having so much fun. They even allowed my son to join them which was the highlight of my night. I really can't say enough about how much we (and our guests) enjoyed the band. It was probably the most nerve-wracking of our wedding decisions and I am over-joyed that we went with Cherry Crush!!! From the ceremony (that had to be altered at the last minute due to the weather) to the cocktail hour to the reception...they truly knocked it out of the park for us!!!

"In the most emphatic way possible: HIRE CHERRY CRUSH! We signed Cherry Crush to do a solo cocktail hour and the full band (including sax and two additional vocalists) for our reception. Our venue was Cescaphe Water Works in Philadelphia. Even in our tight turnaround, from the very first day, Marty (drummer and band leader) was overwhelmingly friendly AND calming. In the hectic environment of wedding planning, that makes a huge difference! The band put on a performance for the ages! Honestly, everything about it blew us away. Cherry Crush nailed the first dance song, the father-daughter dance and mother-son dance. We felt like the father-daughter song in particular came with a high degree of difficulty, but they crushed it! All night, we had people coming to us talking about how awesome they were (even the venue staff who see bands 3 days a week raved about them! “Where did you find them? They’re incredible!”). The quality of the performance, the FUN & enthusiasm (they were having just as much fun as us!), the song selection, and the interaction with the party were all perfect! Full disclosure, neither of us got to see much of the cocktail solo because we were being pulled in so many directions, but we did get great reviews from everyone we talked to for song choice and the general vibe. The one brief moment I walked by for like 7 seconds he was playing one of my favorite songs and in that short time I was totally jamming to it. Perfect vibe for the cocktail hour, the venue and time of year. And Caity (female lead & MC), oh my lord is her enthusiasm infectious! She was so awesome with us the whole night. Her announcements were great and she knew exactly how to play the crowd all night! And the fact that she let me (groom) come on stage and sing a song was really the “cherry” on top of the whole night for me! Then she got the bride up there for a song too! We got to be rock stars for a night! One under-the-radar thing that really impressed us (and I don’t think we expected) was that the band never really took a break except for dinner. They rotated in and out to make it continue for the whole night (probably workable because we got the additional musicians). We were also super pleased with the dinner music and the dance sets in between announcements and courses of the meals. There’s really no shortage of awesome things we could say. Cherry Crush was absolutely PERFECT for us and would be for any other wedding!"

"We first heard Cherry Crush after taking a trip to see them in Arlington Virginia, we were sold immediately. Their energy was incredible and both myself and my then finance were amazed with how diverse their song catalog was and super excited to have them perform at our wedding. Come the big day, my now wife and I were blown away once again. Cherry Crush stepped it up even further and exceeded all our expectations. Almost every guest remarked on the incredible energy Caty was able to sustain. So many people have gone on to tell us that our wedding was the funnest they have ever went to, and we couldn’t have made it happen without Cherry Crush. Guest young and old were up and moving, even the photographer remarked about how she had never seen such a crowded dance floor. The bass player played so hard he broke a string and wound up gifting it to us as a souvenir! Family members and friends have continued asking about the band in the weeks after! Thank you guys for helping us achieve the best night of our lives! I cannot recommend this band enough!"

Cherry Crush was the perfect choice for my daughter’s wedding. They were extremely accommodating from the start and did an outstanding job from the ceremony to the cocktail hour and the kept the energy going to the very end of the evening. This band is the real deal with top notch musicians and vocalists that played an incredible assortment of tunes from all eras and genres. Highly recommend Cherry Crush.

Marty was wonderful at communicating with me as well as very willing to fulfill all requests for songs as well as leaving out genres that were not wanted. The band sounded great, were tastefully dressed for our event and not overly loud so our guests could still converse without having to speak over the band. Many guests commented on how much they enjoyed Cherry Crush - would definitely use them again!

Hands down, the best wedding ever and a HUGE part of that was due to Cherry Crush. They were an absolute pleasure to work with, and made our wedding the best party. Thank you guys so much, we look forward to seeing you play in the future!!

Cherry Crush Band was amazing! Marty was our main point of contact - he was extremely responsive and beyond helpful throughout the planning process. My husband and I had requests for different lighting, a photo with every table during the duration of one song, a sprinkling of MP3 songs that were special to us, etc. They were extremely flexible, receptive to our ideas, and accommodating for all requests. Marty provided a lot of guidance and reassurance during the stress of planning - they were professional, on time, and took care of everything behind the scenes the day of the wedding. We had an absolute blast and received tons of positive feedback from our guests. I would absolutely recommend Cherry Crush band for weddings or events - they are awesome!

Kaitlin and the entire ECE team were tremendous communicators throughout the entire process! We could not be happier with Cherry Crush and the overall experience with this band! The communication leading up to our wedding was top notch, and we felt extremely comfortable throughout the entire process. The band leader Marty reached out to us several weeks ahead of time to answer any questions we had, and get to know us as a couple and what type of atmosphere we were looking for. Needless to say, they knocked it out of the park- the dance floor was packed all night with guests of all ages, and we heard from so many people that the music was one of the highlights of the night. Marty also played our ceremony music with acoustic guitar and a few members performed during dinner hour, everyone was great. The band was even willing to learn a few new requests that we had, which was above and beyond, and made our night even more special. I could not recommend Cherry Crush more strongly, you will not be disappointed if you book this band!!

We hired Cherry Crush Band to perform at our wedding in Newtown Square, PA this past fall. We found them based on a recommendation from another couple who had worked with Cherry Crush for their wedding, and they did not disappoint! Marty was very responsive and proactive in asking detailed questions about the ceremony and reception. The actual performance was awesome - we are still getting compliments from our guests about the band weeks later. Everyone had a blast. Definitely hire Cherry Crush if you want your guests out on the dance floor all night!

Due to COVID, we had to pick a new band for our wedding. But really, that was a blessing in disguise. We found Cherry Crush and immediately fell in love with their vibe. Once we got closer to the wedding and started interacting with Marty, their drummer and coordinator, things went so smoothly. My husband and I were very picky in our song selection for the wedding, and they stuck to our playlist. They even learned a few new songs that meant a lot to us, including our first dance song. Halfway through our wedding reception I was questioning whether we were at our wedding or a concert, as all of us were rocking out on the dance floor. I've never experience anything like that at any wedding I've been at. I can't say enough about this band, and how awesome they were. I've heard so many compliments from my guests on how they really made the night memorable.

Not only is Cherry Crush an AMAZING band to watch but they're extremely helpful and timely in their responses. We had a special request for my dad to sing our first dance song and they made sure that he was comfortable leading up to our wedding day! Marty checked in with us multiple times leading up to our wedding and made sure we were happy with all of our decisions! And then the actual wedding day was incredible with their performance! We CANNOT recommend Cherry Crush enough for your next event because you get quality communication and entertainment!!

Cherry Crush was the perfect wedding band for us! They played all the songs we wanted and were organized and professional the entire time before, during, and after our big day! They also learned several songs for us, highly recommend

Cherry Crush beyond exceeded our expectations! They got the party going and kept people on the dance floor all night. Even my 91 year old grandmother couldn’t resist getting out there to dance! Our guests are still raving about how great and fun the band was! In addition to being superb entertainers they made the whole process easy and personalized. Marty made sure they knew ahead of time what our must have songs were in case they needed to learn new songs just for our event. Kaitlin checked up on pronunciation on all the family names ahead of time to make sure everyone was introduced properly. They are a class act that made planning an event during a pandemic seem easy! We can’t thank them enough and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a fantastic wedding or event band!

Cherry Crush was the PERFECT band for our wedding in Long Beach Island! They are very versatile — One member set up the microphones and speakers for the ceremony on the beach and played guitar for the ceremony, two people played guitar and sang at the cocktail hour, and the full band played during the reception. They truly were a pleasure to work with. We had several calls and exchanged emails prior to the event to discuss logistics and go over what songs we wanted them to play. They learned several new songs for us, played for 4.5 hours straight, and read the audience and kept everyone on the dance floor. Cherry Crush is amazing and we would highly recommend them as a wedding band!

Thank you so much for helping to make our wedding amazing! We appreciate you taking the time to chat with us before hand. We knew we were in good hands with you so we weren't stressing about the music at all. You were very easy to work with and the music was perfect!!

Cherry Crush Band is the best wedding band ever. It’s been months since our wedding, and our guests are still talking about how great our band was. People only left the dance floor to replenish their drinks. The band was upbeat, but still played some slow songs for the couples. I can’t recommend them enough.
