WHAT COUPLES ARE SAYING

Nothing means more to us than hearing how much our couples loved celebrating with Manhattan City Music.

Victor Lesser from Manhattan City Music was nothing less than incredible! He was highly recommended by our venue. After our first meeting with him, we knew he was the right choice for our wedding and he did not disappoint! Victor managed to have every single guest out of their seat and on the dance floor the entire night. His music selection was fun and varied and always kept everyone entertained and never had a lull period.
On top of being a fun and entertaining DJ, incredible and exciting sax player, he also has an amazing voice. He was so amazing that people couldn’t believe that he was singing live and was not a recording!
He really helped make the wedding what it was and it was nothing less than perfect and so much fun.

Victor Lesser was the perfect fit for our beautiful wedding! His down to earth and charismatic personality radiated throughout the night making our reception lit with tons of energy, fun, endless dancing and happy memories! He serenaded my mom so beautifully (.)) it warmed our hearts and made us cry. Hiring Victor for our wedding was a no brainer once we called him and realized how easy he made it for us to book his services. He provided an extremely useful music tool to choose appropriate songs for each event of the night and a cool state of the art photo booth which was a huge hit at the reception. Everyone left in awe after experiencing Victor’s incredible talent on the dance floor! Not only is he a professional DJ/MC, he sings beautifully and plays the saxophone along any song you just can’t stop jamming! Thank you Victor for our special and memorable night and thank you for fulfilling every one of our requests seamlessly. You truly are one of a kind!!! We are over the moon happy to have you celebrating our union with us!
