Amazing entertainment!

We hired Bongo and B Entertainment for our wedding and couldn't be happier with our choice! The modern jazz trio provided the perfect, elegant ambiance during dinner, adding a sophisticated touch that our guests thoroughly enjoyed. Later, the bongo performance was a fantastic way to kick off the dance floor and brought incredible energy to the evening! Chris was a pleasure to work with – always responsive, easy to communicate with, and genuinely committed to making our day special. We would definitely recommend Bongo and B Entertainment to anyone looking for memorable, high-quality performances!

Highly recommend!

We went with Bongo & B Entertainment for our Band and DJ at our wedding. We LOVED the band and DJ - they really set the energy for the night and made it so fun!! We received so much positive feedback from our guests on how incredible the music was. The consultation process and prep calls with Bongo were some of our favourite. Chris guided us along the way and advised us if we needed help making a decision. Music/entertainment was really important for us for our wedding, and we were very happy. Highly recommend Bongo & B!

Amazing live musicians and DJ

We had live entertainment from Bongo and B for our wedding at the Cambridge Mill and they were all awesome! From the very beginning, the consultative services provided by Chris were fantastic. He met with us virtually to go through all of the musical options for our wedding. We ended up picking a cellist and harpist for our ceremony and cocktail hour, as well we a DJ for the reception. The musicians and DJ were all absolutely awesome. The musicians were so talented - their music was beautiful and our guests had so many great things to say about them. The DJ was awesome - he took requests and kept the party going. From start to finish, we were so glad to have picked Bongo & B. It was so easy to go with a company that had both live musicians and a DJ.

Simply Incredible

We hired a DJ and saxophonist from Bongo&B, and they were absolutely flawless! Corresponding with them before the wedding was easy. Chris Romano helped guide us through the process with thoughtful questions and a wealth of industry knowledge. He was always responsive and we never felt like he was pressuring us to spend more or change our vision. DJ Dave and the saxophonist got our dance floor energized (despite our wedding being a daytime affair). If your venue permits fire, I would highly recommend you include the flamethrower saxophone in your entertainment package. Every guest (whether 9 months old or 90 years old) was amazed and entertained by the interactive show. Their prices are more than reasonable given the quality of service, and I am 100% glad we went with this premium company.

Amazing talent and experience - DJ services

A huge thank you to Bongo & B Entertainment for making our wedding memorable and bringing the exact vibe we were looking for. Chris was pleasant and attentive during the consultation, booking and entire process. We appreciate the professionalism and experience we received. We booked a dj who played exactly what we asked for and you could tell he was experienced and talented. Everything went seamless and we couldn’t have asked for anything more. We would highly recommend this company! They are on-time, reliable, consistent and talented!

Excellent! 10/10

Bongo & B took care of all our music needs for our wedding day.

Chris Romano went above and beyond to help us plan, offer advise and support throughout the entire process. He is immensely knowledgeable and personable.

We hired two musicians & a DJ for our wedding. All were incredible. We received countless compliments all evening about how amazing the DJ was. He kept the party going, ensuring everyone was on the dance floor all night long. There wasn't a lull in the evening.

We would heartily recommend Bongo & B to anyone planning their wedding. You can rest easy knowing that everything will be top notch.

Amazing strings for ceremony and cocktails and fantastic DJ

Bongo and B was great! The process beforehand was really straightforward and Chris and the team helped us select our songs for the day of. On the day, the strings were amazing and the ceremony and cocktail reception was great. At night, DJ Tage killed it and the dance floor was never empty! Highly recommend this group for any party you are planning!

Guitarist/Singer Entertainment

We are returning customers of Bongo and B, our first experience was phenomenal with hiring their Samba dancers for our wedding. Chris provided exceptional customer service from our initial phone call and you can tell he cares about his customers and is passionate about what he does.

This time we hosted a surprise party for my grandmother. We called Chris asking for ideas for entertainment and he set us up with Alessandro, a guitarist who could sing Italian songs at our event. Alessandro was fantastic, he had an incredible voice, sang Italian classics (that gave me goosebumps) and had a great variety of music. He was very kind, friendly and really set the tone for a classy, sophisticated and fun Italian style event for my grandmother. We received tons of compliments about Alessandro and I highly recommend hiring him for your event and working with Chris to bring all the magic together to match your vision.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

With an honours degree in Jazz Performance from the Humber College Music Program, I have many years of experience performing and managing Corporate, Social and Private events from a small to large scale.

As a Jazz Drummer & Pianist, I've brought over my artist talent, to talent development and expanding our incredible roster to bring Toronto the very best of Musical wedding talent.

Bringing together some of the best musicians I know in the city who are touring and performing at the highest level, allows me to excel Bongo & B to the #1 Choice when selecting your special days Live Entertainment.

Personally, I find communication and education the MOST important thing when I talk to all my brides and grooms. So many people like to just send an email without explaining anything behind the talent and WHY they are as good as they are.

For so many Brides & Grooms, this is often their first time hiring Entertainment, and I personally want to show them all the available options.

My passion for my clients and being a dedicated musician provides the chemistry for the flawless execution of performances. Knowing both sides of the same coin is an extremely valuable asset most people in this industry do not have. Having both Business, Management, Organizational and musical expertise, I always exceed my clients' expectations on all facets of an event from beginning to end. These unique dynamics build client relationships for years to come and allow for the proper execution of our talented showcases delivering unforgettable experiences that resonate long after an event is over!

Over the past 10 years, I've begun to amass a portfolio of Happy Clients with Hundreds of happy brides & grooms. It's been great seeing some of them years down the road with their children coming back to us to now take Music Lessons!

I can't wait to chat with you about your special day and how we can find you the perfect talent to suit your mood, budget, and make some forever memories!

I started performing music and player well over the last 20 years. Studying Afro-Cuban, West African and Caribbean rhythms from master drummers that reside in our beloved city to their homelands in Cuba always was a calling for me.

Understanding the power of the instrument and how it elevates the energy of all human beings is an undeniable force to the core of what Bongo & B represents.

“I wanted to bring this beautiful artistry to the forefront, and since its conception, it has provided dance floors with incredible energy and countless magical moments.” Peter BonGiovanni

Entertaining hundreds of thousands of people with a countless number of events, My expertise spanning from corporate, weddings, and private events, to Toronto’s hottest nightclubs, provided us today’s knowledge base that helps us educates our clients on what it takes to put on spectacular 5-star performances.

Our time-tested and award-winning consultative approach to meeting with a corporate business background are the building blocks that makeup Bongo & B Entertainment. My communicative skills, years of experience paired along with a genuine love for his clients and music is what makes for a unique client experience and spectacularly memorable moments for all of our clients.

The most satisfying feeling after a performance is seeing the glow and smiles on our client’s faces”. Hearing them say you made a tremendous difference at the event is the most gratifying feeling and pushes us to strive for excellence every day.
