Kelly productions gets a 5/5 stars! They stuck with me through the postponement of my wedding due to covid. But that's not all. John the owner was super responsive and always answered all of my questions! But I really wanted to give a HUGE shout out to DJ Willi who ran our entire evening from the ceremony to the last song. DJ Willi was super nice and listened to what we wanted on our big day which is so important.
I also appreciated that he would come over to us at the reception and let us know the time as well (to keep us on track - and asked what we wanted to do) because things can be SO chaotic during the reception. He played music that catered to all ages and everyone could not stop dancing! I still have people calling me a week later saying that it was the best dance floor and music they've ever experienced at a wedding. it was so amazing. Thanks DJ Willi and Kelly productions!

I was introduced to Kelly Productions from my wedding coordinator for a violinist on my wedding. The whole process from the beginning is just smooth! Kayla is so responsive and kind. She explained and answered all of my questions and concerns and helped us arrange the performance time. Dave is a wonderful violinist. He had a great performance on my wedding.
All of my guests are attracted to his performance. He is nice, polite, and humble. Kayla is beyond helpful and nice, Dave is such a talented violinist. I appreciate all of this. Definitely, I'll recommend this to my friends.

We hired Monterey String Quartet through Kelly Productions for our April wedding in Big Sur. They accepted all our song requests and even learned the processional song, it was beautifully performed and our guests loved the modern pop/rock music performed by the strings, and could definitely "name that tune" which was really fun! Having the live music truly helped establish the elegant yet fun atmosphere for our outdoor wedding.
Our ring-warming ceremony got a little confused, and the actual processional took a shorter time than expected, and the musicians handled the music cues flawlessly, seamlessly lengthening and shortening the songs as needed. Total pros! We were so excited for the live music under the redwoods, and they exceeded our expectations! I wish we could have been guests at our own wedding! :

Kayla was beyond helpful getting ceremony music booked for our wedding. Everything was easy and very organized. Loved that the website has samples of all the musicians. We chose Gypsy Moon with Robert & Dave because the combo sounded amazing. Listening to them upstairs waiting to come down was calming. The ceremony started 30 mins late and they kept the music going no issues. Highly recommend booking through Kelly productions.

I found this company listed on our venues recommended list of vendors. After researching all of them I found myself coming back to Kelly Productions, specifically for one of their artists: Mark Banks. His voice came out of my speakers with such depth I was amazed. Honestly his rendition of "Hallelujah" was so unbelievable I was in tears. But I loved the fact that not only did he perform DJ services, he performed with his guitar as well.
All of those reasons sold us.and we hadn't met him yet! But I was able to do so, and that only solidified our decision. Mark is a kind man with a gentle soul. He loves to perform and entertain that's clear right from the outset. His use of various instruments to change the tune and/or beat of songs is outstanding. He really is an amazing performer with a singular talent.
He made our wedding day so special, he kept the party going and all of our guests LOVED him (they couldn't stop raving about him). I'm so glad we chose him, and we look forward to seeing him perform in the future. Thank you Mark!

We thoroughly enjoyed working with Sugar (aka Amanda), our booking agent for the Monterey String Quartet. She was very helpful in getting all of the details sorted out for our ceremony music. The Monterey String Quartet is just fantastic! All very well-trained, professional players. They have such an extensive repertoire, everything from jazz to latin to classical to rock.
And they were even willing to learn a new song just for our wedding! They played beautifully and their presence added a real sense of elegance to the occasion. We're so glad that we hired them. Highly recommended!

Dj Kelly was by far the best DJ! He's very kind and sweet person who's number 1 thing is to make your event a great time! He married my husband and I and was the DJ for our wedding our wedding was a mixture of hip hop and r&b and the best Mexican music! What ever you want he has! And what ever he doesn't have he makes it happen to get it!
My husband and I would definitely recommend him anywhere! We got married at the del monte beach house! DJ kelly was amazing! Wouldn't have changed one thing! Our friends say he was the best DJ they ever heard for a wedding he made it fun and personal Ramirez wedding 2015! Severo and Ashley!

We booked John Sherry through Kelly Productions for ceremony and cocktail music for our April wedding. John was amazing! He even learned a new song for us! I would highly recommend him. The team at Kelly Productions was generally easy to work with and the rates were fair. I would have liked them to be a bit more responsive to email and phone calls, but I think they are dealing with some turnover issues. Overall, we had a great experience. Thanks!

We had the Outlook String Quartet play modern tunes for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour at The Holly Farm in Carmel, CA, in August 2015 and the musicians were fantastic! Everything was coordinated through my wedding planner, Michelle Lee at Simply Events, and I was delighted with the music on my wedding day - THANK YOU!

Through Kelly Productions, we got Mark Banks to perform at our daughter's wedding, and he was absolutely fantastic! He is a wonderful, talented person with a beautiful voice. I can't even count the number of people who commented to us about how great he was. One couple said repeatedly that they want to fly him to Southern California to perform at their upcoming wedding. I would love to have the opportunity to experience his beautiful music again!

Kelly Productions provided us Javier Sanchez for our cocktail hour after our wedding. Javier was superb. His beautiful style was a perfect fit for the evening. It' was balanced, beautiful, relaxing, simply superb. I wish our cocktail "hour" was longer. Wedding evenings go bye way too fast. Thank you Kelly Productions and Javier!

Peter Burkhard was the MC for my Wedding on August 11th at the Perry House. He was great. I have never encountered a better MC. His timing was perfect and he kept the part going. He is very in tune with the crowd and was able to play exactly the right songs at exactly the right time. Everything went better that we could have anticipated.
