The Barnstorm

Maplewood, NJ
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $22,500

The Barnstorm is an NYC-based party rock wedding band, best known for their electric and engaging dance party receptions. It's been said they're "not a real wedding band," but rather "an incredibly fun and engaging band that just happens to absolutely rock weddings!" Whether it's today's hits, top 40, hip hop, classic rock, Motown, and all things in between, The Barnstorm can do it all - putting their own spin on everything they do.

Awarded Best of Zola
We are completely obsessed with The Barnstorm! They are, without a doubt, the greatest wedding band in the world. From the very first note to the final song, they brought an energy that was absolutely unmatched. The dance floor was packed all night and our guests are still talking about them months later. They’re insanely talented, wildly fun, and just so warm and genuine. You can tell they truly love what they do and they care deeply about making the night unforgettable, not just for your guests, but for you. And not to be dramatic, but the bridezilla in me definitely came out when it came to the playlist, however the band handled it with such kindness and professionalism. They actually listened to what we wanted, learned and performed 3 or 4 songs just for us, and completely nailed them. That meant so much to us. They made us feel like total rockstars, hyped the crowd like pros, and somehow made every moment feel both epic and personal. If you’re even thinking about hiring The Barnstorm, do it. You will not find a more fun, more talented, or more genuinely caring band. We love them so much and will be forever grateful they were part of our day.

All I can say is WOW! I found out about Jason when he did my sister’s wedding (and many of her husband’s family members' weddings as well). It was a no-brainer for us to have him do our wedding as well. Our wedding pictures came out absolutely amazing and it’s hard to believe all of our shots were done by just him! He was able to capture so many amazing pictures and moments throughout the entire day. Also, we asked him to drive to Albany, NY to do our engagement pictures in my husband’s hometown and he said yes without hesitation! On a personal note, we can’t thank him enough for his kindness, open communication, and passion for the work he does. It was truly a breeze working with him throughout our entire wedding process. We couldn’t recommend him enough!

My husband and I got married on 6/15/2024. I handled majority of our wedding planning, but as an OCD bride, my biggest anxiety was not being able to be hands on for the day of our wedding. Everyone was telling me that as the bride I had to enjoy my wedding day, but all I could think about was “I need to make sure everything goes exactly the way I’ve been planning it for the last year and a half”. That’s when I knew I needed a day of coordinator. I came across Star Rose Creations and I’m SO happy that I did. Miranda and Kylie are absolutely gems!! They are both so professional, caring, and understanding. They were an absolute pleasure to work with. From the initial meeting, to creating timelines for the day of, to making sure that everything was setup the way my floor plan showed, to handling the vendors, to making sure we kept on schedule for the ceremony and reception… I mean they handled it all! And most importantly, they kept me smiling which helped to keep my tears at bay on the happiest day of my life! I can’t tell you how happy I was to have them both there on our wedding day! Even our bridal party talked about them after our wedding and how impressed they were that Miranda and Kylie were so attentive to my husband and I. Trust me, if you book with Star Rose Creations you won’t be disappointed!!

We're a husband/wife photography duo. We're college sweethearts and we're currently expecting our first child in June 2021! We are so happy to be in this business but we didn’t always know we’d become wedding photographers. Seth spent about 10 years in video production (aka the equipment expert) and Nicole is an advertising art director (aka the artsy perfectionist).

We hired Hyde Photography for our 11/15 wedding, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience. Both Seth and his second shooter, Drea, were absolutely incredible from start to finish. They had such a calm, grounding presence throughout the day while still keeping everything moving on schedule. They were flexible, attentive, and made sure we captured the handful of concept shots that were really important to us. On top of that, they were just a genuinely great vibe to be around, which made the whole experience feel effortless. We received our preview photos about a week after the wedding and they were so perfect — beautifully composed, natural, and truly reflective of the day. We’re already confident the full gallery will be just as stunning. Highly, highly recommend!

We cannot say enough great things about Nicholas Yee and his incredible team! Literally from the very beginning, he demonstrated unparalleled professionalism - answering all of our emails super quickly, and taking the time to ensure every detail was covered. He worked with us to create a personalized timeline that made our day run SEAMLESSLY. Most of our vendors worked off his timeline. This allowed us to focus on the joy of the moment without worrying about logistics. He’s also just a great person overall - we felt like we were talking to an old friend. :) What truly sets Nicholas Yee apart is his eye for capturing not only the big, emotional moments but also the quiet, loving exchanges and the spontaneous moments of levity that made our wedding day uniquely ours. We were blown away by the pictures and the moments he captured. We can only really describe the pictures as breathtakingly “cinematic.” 10/10!!! On top of his artistry, his organizational skills were impeccable. He efficiently coordinated all of the family and wedding party photos with incredible time management, ensuring everything was done quickly and beautifully. He budgeted extra time in the timeline for delays which was most appreciated! This allowed us to maximize time with our guests and enjoy the celebration while still getting every shot we had hoped for—and then some! If you are looking for a photographer who is professional, organized, funny, and, above all, an artist who can tell the story of your day with authenticity and heart, then book Nicholas Yee and his team.

We went with an acoustic guitar player for ceremony, electric guitar cocktail hour and reception along with a DJ (Josuel lead) for the reception. We also had the photo station Photo Booth which was perfect for the setting. However our biggest compliments go to Josuel who was our lead DJ. He was organized, prepared and had an excellent presence and composure. He even sorted our last minute changes with the venues matre de because we and guests were taking too long at cocktail hour.. he figured out little changes so I didn’t have to! Above and beyond.

My husband and I got married at the CKE this October 2024. There aren’t enough words to express our gratitude to their entire team for all of their hard work to make our visions and dreams come to life. Each and every staff member was kind, and helpful. If you had a question you’d get a response promptly and always with a “let’s see what we can do attitude”. Katherine (the owner) made you feel a part of the CKE family and always was looking to make the planning process seamless and easy for us and our family. The CKE floral and design team made our big ideas all come to life- we had a visions of big branching centerpieces with florals tucked in, that Jess and her team absolutely delivered on. On top of that, we asked for an installation over our sweetheart table. Jess and her team have many suggestions and shared they visited Home Depot at least 3 times to see how it would hang, and the final installation beyond exceeded our expectations. The talent and grace their team exudes is what ever bride and groom look for in a team. The planning process was also so seamless due to their amazing coordinator team. We worked with Katrina, the kindest, most professional coordinator we have ever met. Katrina was available at every step of the planning process, providing thoughtful recommendations due to her very obvious experience. Katrina also was there for our wedding day of helping to manage the schedule, set up, constantly checking in, and making sure it all went according to plan (which it did). In addition during the reception Katrina was checking with us throughout the night to see if we wanted to pivot anything or if we needed anything. We are extremely grateful for her support! In addition, Kyle was our maitre d’ for the evening and he did an absolutely wonderful job. He made sure to check in with my husband and I as well as our immediate family members. He was so kind and professional! Lastly but very importantly- the food and drinks! Most of all of our guests shared that this was the best wedding food they have ever had. It is no small feat cooking for large groups and every aspect of the food from the cocktail hour to the dinner course was absolutely fantastic. These are a few quotes from guests: - “The food was gourmet.” - “This is the real deal.” - “The sushi… Oh, the sushi! So fresh!” In addition, the bartenders crushed it! Everyone was impressed by the quality of the drinks and we never had a line at the bar- they were fast and catered to our guests. I would highly recommend the CKE to future couples getting married. The aspect of the family business really shows and ensures you have a tailored experience for your wedding. The entire staff is kind and down to earth- always willing to help. We wish them nothing but the best for their future wedding seasons!

The team knew exactly when we were needed and when we could be left alone to soak in the day. We heard nothing but positive things from other vendors about how LSC executed the day. They took tons of behind-the-scenes photos and videos as well to help us relive the big moments, which we truly appreciated. From the initial consultation, it was clear that Eli and her team have a passion for creating heartfelt memories and making every couple feel special. We are strongly recommending LSC Event Planning to all of our friends & family who are planning to get married. If you’re looking for a coordinator that will exceed expectations in every possible way, Eli and her team are on it!
