  • Book Jennifer and David NOW! It was very important to me to have some sort of string musicians during our cocktail hour, and in luck we were able to find Jennifer and David for our wedding. Our wedding events occurred in the Buffalo area so we did incur a travel fee but even with that, they were affordable and very professional in their communications with us. We were able to select a number of songs to be played at the cocktail hour, one of which was “Married Life” from the movie Up. My husband and I arrived a few minutes late to cocktail hour, and within a minute or two of entering the song played, and my heart was so full. Jennifer and David are true professionals and were wonderful to work with throughout our process. If I ever need to use their services again I would book them in a heartbeat!

  • One of our daughter’s desires for her wedding day was to have beautiful live music and that is exactly what David and Jennifer provided! From the very beginning of the planning process they were easy to communicate with, professional , and the music… just beautiful! They were with us for our entire event from the ceremony through brunch and played exactly what our daughter wanted. They even went out of their way to find a piece of music that she wanted that was not in their repertoire and purchased it for the event . I would recommend DJ Celli music services to anyone looking for quality musicians! They were amazing and added such style to our wedding brunch!

  • DJ Celli went above and beyond to make sure our day was special. They were very responsive and had excellent communication throughout. When I last minute realized I needed one more song for our ceremony, they not only accommodated me, but also offered to learn a brand new song for me so that I could have a traditional Jewish ceremony full of meaning. I would highly recommend Jennifer and David to anyone looking for a classy ceremony or cocktail hour. We received tons of compliments from our guests! Thank you again for making our day so beautiful!

  • DJ Celli was an absolute delight to work with! They made our wedding ceremony magical and it was the most beautiful thing ever! Very professional and communicated well. I wish we booked them for the whole wedding day because they were that amazing!! I have to say it was the best decision we made for our big day. 100000% worth it.

  • DJ Celli totally elevated our wedding ceremony! We came across them after looking up different instrumental performers for our wedding ceremony. We wanted something different and elegant. After reaching out, they responded right away and were so accommodating and kind. That goes a long way for a bride and groom planning a wedding. We knew they would be great, but we were floored with how amazing they sounded that day. They kicked off our wedding in such a beautiful way and we are forever thankful for their talent. We have received so many compliments from our family and friends on their performance and have referred them to our loved ones getting married in the future!! Thank you Jennifer and David for making our day so much more special!!

  • My husband and I hired DJ Celli to perform at our August wedding. Jennifer and David were so responsive and made the booking process a breeze. They are a talented cello duo and it was our absolute pleasure working with them. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone who is looking to book cello musicians for any special event. Thank you Jennifer and David for making our wedding day so special!

  • Jennifer and David of DJ Celli are absolutely wonderful! Their music provided the cornerstone of our ceremony and all of our family were delighted by the beauty and richness of their cello duo. Jennifer and David were kind enough to learn a few new pieces for us (arrangements of Wagner, Couperin, and Schumann not in their list) which were tailored to our ceremony readings. Following the indoor ceremony, they set up outdoors in a garden setting and continued to charm us all. I cannot say enough good about them. They traveled several hours each way to make it to our venue at St. Lawrence University in Canton, New York. We are so grateful to have had them play for our wedding! They were crucial in achieving the magic we had hoped for.

  • Jennifer and David were so easy to work with. Always professional and quick to respond! They were absolutely perfect for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. They even helped with recommendations when we weren’t sure what we wanted and we were so happy with how everything turned out. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for beautiful music!!

  • I had DJ Celli perform for my wedding ceremony and it made it feel so romantic! I got so many compliments on the music. They were able to play and music you can thank of. Also, they were very flexible with planning the ceremony timeline and layout of where to perform.

  • I'm so glad I hired DJ Celli peform at my wedding ceremony! As a classical music fan, I knew I wanted something a little more off the beaten path than Pachelbel's Canon or Mendelssohn's Wedding March from A Midsummer Night's Dream. I told DJ Celli some of my favorite composers and eras of classical music, and they sent me an extensive list of options for my processional and recessional based on my preferences. I ended up choosing a couple of pieces from Italian Baroque composers I'd never have come across otherwise. The music at my ceremony was everything I hoped, and I've also heard from guests how much they enjoyed the music DJ Celli performed before the ceremony, as guest were being seated. My wedding was very low-budget and DIY, but I definitely feel like it was worth the money to have live music performed by musicians of this caliber.

  • Both Jennifer and David were SO kind and SO talented. They took time to learn a song that wasn’t on their song list and we couldn’t have been more grateful. We loved having them as part of our ceremony!!

  • Jennifer and David were the best vendors we could have asked for. We had a small non-traditional wedding, and coordinated everything ourselves. Last minute (like a few weeks before the wedding) my (now) husband decided we HAD TO HAVE cellists play at the ceremony...and cocktail hour...and then during dinner since we missed cocktail hour taking photos. Oh, and he wanted them to play all our favorite songs, none of which were on their standard playlist. Needless to say, I couldn't believe it when David and Jennifer agreed to it all! They were so professional, and played every song we asked for. It made the day so much more special, and our guests were over-the-moon. I really can't thank them enough for being part of our special day! We plan to use them again for any other special event we have in the future.

  • Working with DJ Celli for my ceremony music was a breeze. Not only did they drive to Buffalo to perform, but they were able to learn a specific song I wanted to walk down the aisle to. My only regret is I didn’t get to hear them play during the pre-ceremony time as I waited to make my entrance :-D

  • DJ Celli was amazing to work with! From start to finish, they were extremely professional and responsive. They were flexible to my requests and very clear in communication regarding their contract. Their song list is extensive and they will work with you for any other requests. Of all the wedding vendors we used, DJ Celli was the swiftest and most professional at communicating. I knew exactly what to expect on the day of our wedding and was never worried about them holding up their end of the bargain. They were on time (early actually), professionally dressed, and prepared. We received many compliments from guests on how elegant the music was! Highly recommend!

  • DJ Celli was wonderful to work with! They played for our ceremony & cocktail hour and their music was definitely a highlight of both! Their song list is extensive and full of classics and modern music. We also requested a few additional songs, and they were so accommodating. We couldn't recommend David and Jennifer enough!

  • The perfect pair for a wedding!! We found DJ Celli last minute on line for our wedding. They responded so quickly and were so professional from the start! What a great addition for our guests for our wedding ceremony! They helped pick out some great music selections along with a few of our own choices and were perfect! All of our guests truly loved them as they were waiting for the ceremony! And might I add quite wonderfully dressed!! Thank you so much DJ Celli for making our wedding ceremony so memorable!!

  • On a day that had already featured many surprises, your performance at my birthday party was definitely a highlight. I cannot say enough about the beauty of your playing and the lush purity of sound you coaxed from your cellos. I loved the Bach transcriptions especially, but enjoyed the entire range of styles you played. Thank you so much for sharing your musical gifts with all of us.

  • DJ Celli performed at my cocktail hour from 6-7pm and did a fantastic job. They were very professional to work with and were quick to respond. They did a beautiful job at our cocktail hour doing a mix of old/current songs and all the guests commented on what a nice touch they were.

  • DJ Celli performed for our public library's grand reopening on August 27, 2022. Jennfier and David arrived on time and played exquisite popular and classical music for our two hour celebration. We had so many compliments on these musicians. The musicians were professional and their music was soothing and uplifting at the same time! We would welcome them back at any time!

  • Jennifer and David are brilliant musicians, and particularly gifted at collaborating with the ceremony flow and unusual elements. At many points we had cello music interwoven with poetic readings. Their suggestions for music helped to flesh out the plans we had. Unambiguously terrific: patient and generous in planning with us, won the hearts of all present for this celebration.

  • DJ Celli was an excellent choice for our wedding. They had an extensive song list with a wide variety of genres to choose from, performed beautiful and elegant renditions of some classic songs, and were also willing to learn any additional songs we wanted to hear. In addition to performing during our cocktail hour, they also performed the songs we walked down the aisle to before and after our ceremony. They played continuously throughout the time we booked them for, so there was never a lull or even a second without music. Our guests absolutely loved their renditions - we couldn’t be happier with our choice to book them.

  • David and Jennifer were very easy to work with and helped create a beautiful selection of music. Their sound at the venue was excellent and were very professional. They arrived at the promised time and did a wonderful job. I would recommend them highly without any reservation.

  • My husband and I hired Jennifer and David for our small intimate fall wedding and it was the best decision! During the planning process they were super easy to work with and very helpful! When they played at our reception it was spectacular and our friends/families raved about how wonderful they were. We decided to have them play our first dance songs and it was so beautiful. We highly recommend DJ celli!

  • We hired DJ Celli to celebrate my grandmother’s 97th birthday. The mixture of showtunes and classical delighted all guests from age 5 on up. It was a magical sensory experience that will become our family’s tradition

  • Thank you so much David and Jennifer for being a part of our wedding day. Your music beautifully completed our vision and brought everything to life. DJ Celli were absolutely fantastic to work with, very responsive throughout, and worked with us to accommodate our chosen songs. Very reasonably priced too. Would absolutely recommend!

  • DJ Celli provided music for us at our daughter’s recent bridal shower. Jennifer, our cellist, played with the rare combination of delicacy and passion. She is a musician of the highest talent! Frankly, this beautiful music was a highlight of the day and most certainly brought a touch of class and serenity to a most joyous celebration of family, friends and love!

    — Ann and Steve M.

  • "Wonderful! So talented and professional. I booked them and then was busy preparing and didn’t have time to check in, but they didn’t need anything. They were on time, prepared, and sounded amazing. I got so many compliments and everyone said how great they were. So glad I booked them for my wedding! 10/10 would recommend."

  • We hired DJ Celli for our outdoor wedding this past weekend, and they were absolutely incredible! They were professional, showed up right on time, and displayed excellent musicianship. They even learned a new song by request for our first dance as a couple and it sounded amazing. They played a fantastic mix of classical and popular songs. I would highly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding- I assure you that you will not find any classier musicians to hire!

    — Rachel G.

  • DJ Celli played for our small wedding last December. They were very professional and easy to work with, including playing some specific music we sent them. Their playing was really lovely and made the wedding special, and we would absolutely recommend them!
