Weddings
Adrienne and Zachary – 9/3/2022
Before I even start talking about the music I have to tell you that Cherry Crush (Marty in particular) had the most incredible customer service/email response time/”easy-goingness” of any vendor of our entire wedding by a landslide. We would do annoying things like change our wedding song the WEEK OF THE WEDDING after the band had already learned the first song and Marty replied immediately that it was no problem and they’re more than happy to accommodate. That is just one of many examples in how he shined; we were actually shocked to find out that he was in the band because the personal touches and email responsiveness led us to believe he was a full time band manager. Fast forward to our wedding night and wow, they were spectacular. Incredibly talented musically, knew exactly how to get the room dancing, helped organize our best-men, matrons of honor speeches. 10/10 perfect.

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!

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!!

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.
Brandy and Frank – 9/4/2021
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!!
Gwen and Colin – 8/13/2021
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!
Caitlin and Lindsay – 6/12/2021
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!

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.
Even Hammond – 10/4/20
This band was absolutely amazing for our wedding! My wife and I spent a lot of time in the Shore Point (NJ) bars after college and my family loves music (old and new). So it was important to us to find a band that played some of the music we love from those nights out with friends as well as some of the true classics. They could do it all! Not to mention they learned and played all of our songs (first dance, mother son, father daughter). Live music always sounds better than Spotify!We can’t say enough good things and that was echoed by our guests. They really made the night a blast for everyone. We will be sure to head out to see them when they are playing in some of our local spots!
Bryan & Ashley – Indian River Life Saving Station – 7/20/2020
We booked Cherry Crush for our wedding and they absolutely knocked it out of the park! They prepared music and provided equipment for our outdoor ceremony, came back and did an amazing acoustic duo for cocktail hour, did all the intros and MC duties for the entrances, then the full band played all night with not a butt in a seat. Such a fun time! Our guests can’t stop talking about how good the band was and how much fun they had. Thank you for making our day so much fun!!
EJ Pappas – Deerfield Country Club – 11/16/19
What an amazing Wedding Band!We were both so happy to have Cherry Crush as our wedding band. I contacted Marty the band’s drummer. He was very easy to work with. He had a form that we filled out to select our favorite wedding songs, first dances, cake cutting, Etc. He also worked with the venue with order of events. The band was ready to play as soon as we got to the reception. We also hired the band to do a cocktail hour. Caitlin and Alfie, the singers, play some beautiful acoustic music that didn’t overtake the reception. After all the formalities were done the band played for the rest of the night. Songs from every decade that got all members, young and old, to get up and dance. I would highly recommend the Cherry Crush band to play at your wedding. And their pricing was very reasonable.
Alex Hillman – Princeton Marriot – 10/26/19
Amazing, Superb Party Band!!!Cherry Crush and EastCoast Entertainment was the best choice we could have made for our entertainment! They provided us with ceremony music, helped us find a DJ/MC, and played a 2 hour and change set of our favorite party jams at our wedding! Marty, their drummer, was our main POC in planning our music component to our wedding day. He was responsive and easy to work with. He kept us on track and planned every detail with us, down to the minute and individual song for the reception. They also provided acoustic music during our cocktail hour. The group was exceptionally talented and very, very easy to work with. They caused us zero stress as a couple on our big day, especially compared to other vendors who need babysitting. I give Marty and Cherry Crush my highest recommendation! When we host our next party we will be calling them again!
Allie – The Lighthouse – 10/12/19
Unforgettable! Cherry Crush band was the perfect addition to our wedding. They truly made the night memorable and unforgettable. There were no dull moments- we danced all night. It felt like a live concert, full with the guitarist and singer coming in to the crowd. They listened to all of our requests and were super flexible with my last minute changes. I can not recommend them enough!!!!
Greg Flasserg – The Farmhouse – 08/24/2019
Best Night of My Life! AMAZING band in general and AMAZING band for weddings! My wife and I have seen Cherry Crush at local bars a number of times and they never disappoint. The experience was no different at our wedding. Such a fun party filled with dancing. The band is super easy to work with as far as song selection, intros, etc. HIGHLY recommend!

Marty and the Cherry Crush band were a pleasure to work with! They communicated well and were able to tailor the music choices and volume to our particular needs. The music was so much fun. Our party (the band, in particular) was all that was talked about the next day. I highly recommend Cherry Crush! It is really fantastic to have a client pre-emptively email us…that’s when you know the band really did an outstanding job! Thanks for all that you guys are doing: You’re geared up for a lot of success with us! Please give my best to the band: I really appreciate you guys!
Andrea – Big Brothers Big Sisters of Delaware
Lots of compliments about the event and you guys. One regular comment was your sound. It was loud enough for everyone who wanted to dance but quiet enough for those who wanted to socialize. We have great pictures of the band.
Regina – Meals on Wheels Delaware – Rollins Center Ballroom – 9/8/2018

Hey Marty! Thank you so much for coming Tuesday night. You guys were so great and so talented, everyone was raving about you guys. Honestly one of the best bands we’ve had in awhile. We would love to have you back in the fall for our big parties that are about 300 people!
