Highly Recommend

We chose the jazz trio and DJ package for our wedding, and we absolutely loved it all. Josh and the team are professional, talented, and so kind. I was nervous because we didn’t know how to articulate the kind of music we wanted, but more of the vibe we wanted. We didn’t give them much direction, but they didn’t need it because of their experience. They put our worries to ease. Our guests raved about the DJ and band. One of the best decisions we made for our wedding and would recommend them to anyone.

The best wedding musicians ever

As wedding pros, we can't say enough good things about working with Toronto Jazz Collective! Their professionalism, talent, and the value for their quality of service is unmatched. We've experienced their music through soloists and duos on piano, guitar, vocals, etc. and have been so happy with every single experience. Their personable musicians have been a part of the vendor team at Pop-Up Chapel for quite some time, and always do an excellent job for hundreds of our couples. We trust them to the core for their consistency, reliability, beautiful sound, and friendly approach to weddings. Couldn't recommend TJC more, if you're looking for the right fit for live music on your special day, 100% give these guys a shout!

Nick was excellent!

We hired Nick from the Toronto Jazz Collective to perform solo jazz piano music at our wedding reception and he was fantastic. His performances really elevated our experience at the restaurant and he was also very friendly when we chatted with him during his breaks. As a fellow musician, I felt his sense of syncopation kept the room floating on a cloud. Thanks again!!

Really classed up the wedding!

The TJC were epic! Josh was extremely easy to communicate with, both by email and phone. He was very responsive, and was willing to be flexible for the timings of the sets, which was tricky given how much we wanted to jam pack into our day - which included a number of planned interruptions (e.g. speeches, first dance, etc). We booked the string quartet for our ceremony and the jazz quartet (piano, drums, cello and saxophone) for the cocktail hour and reception. Most of the songs were decided beforehand - We were provided with a general list of songs to choose from but had the option to get the bands to learn extra songs (which we didn't end up using, since they knew all the songs we wanted, even those not already on their list) The string quartet played hauntingly beautiful music during our ceremony. The Jazz quartet really classed up the ambiance of our cocktail hour and reception. It made a huge difference to our guests! It rained during our wedding, which really affected our plans, but the TJC was able to easily adapt with little to no input from us, and that was key during the stressful time. I'm no professional musician, but I have played classical and pop piano for half my life and I appreciate that all the musicians that played at our wedding were extremely good. Strongly recommend the TJC!

Amazing - Our ceremony wouldn't have been the same without TJC

My wife and I weren't sure if we needed to hire live music, but are so glad we did, and even more glad we decided to book with Toronto Jazz Collective! It was incredibly easy to talk through different pricing options to ensure we got what we wanted for our wedding. They also agreed to add a couple of songs to their repertoire for the ceremony at our request. Most importantly, everything they played sounded incredible. They were even flexible enough to move their setup inside during a brief rain storm, keeping everyone entertained while they stayed dry. Our guests couldn't stop commenting on what a nice touch they added to the ceremony. Thank you TJC!

One of the highlights of our evening!

My husband only had a few requests for our wedding, one of which was to have a live jazz band! The Toronto Jazz collective exceeded our expectations and provided such a wonderful ambiance for our guests during dinner. They were amazing and we would definitely recommend them!

Absolutely Fantastic!

I cannot recommend the TJC enough. I emailed them several months out from my wedding and they replied promptly with a number of wedding packages based on what I asked for, giving me a range of services and prices.

At no time did I feel any pressure to choose anything more than I was comfortable paying, and I think they actually ended up recommending a package that was in the middle of the range they offered. We ended up with a three piece ensemble for the ceremony and cocktail reception and a DJ for the dinner and dancing. Both were beyond excellent.

The ensemble had a selection of music to pick from and they even learned "Tale as Old As Time" from "Beauty and the Beast" as a special request for my wife!

DJ Duck was similarly awesome. He had no problem finding and playing our first dance song and he played a pretty excellent mix of music all night. I don't think the dance floor emptied out until we sent the last of our guests home.

Overall, we cannot thank them enough!

Outstanding!!

Josh and his crew were fantastic at our wedding. We hired them for a 3 piece jazz band and also for a DJ to get people dancing later int he night. Their music was incredible and really got the mood going! Everyone kept talking about how amazing they were. They fit in with our vibe perfectly and created a beautiful, romantic and fun evening. Josh was also very professional throughout the entire process and accommodated all of our needs and questions. 10/10 would recommend these guys! Worth every penny and more.

Amazing night!

Thank you to Toronto Jazz Collective for creating such a great atmosphere during our ceremony and dinner. The acoustic during our ceremony was exactly what we were looking for. We chose Saxophone and piano during dinner which set a nice ambiance for our guests!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
