Brianna Sent on 10/15/2023SO HAPPY we hired Yazz Events!
My husband and I are SO HAPPY we hired Yazz Events for our October wedding; each member is extremely talented. For our wedding, we decided to have a string trio for our ceremony, quintet for our cocktail hour, and a DJ for our reception. Amy and DJ Dale helped us every step of the way in planning our music for each part of our wedding; even making music recommendations when we felt lost. They were an absolute joy to work with and I felt like after each meeting/conversation we were always on the same page. This helped decrease our stress level :)
The event portal was user friendly and helped us organize the music and timeline for my event. I cannot say enough positive things about Yazz Events. Amy and DJ Dale were flexible in scheduling meetings, very communicative, and always responsive to any and all questions that we had.
Our guests absolutely LOVED the music and even mentioned that they could tell that we handpicked each and every song that was played on our wedding day. Every song that was played, our guests thoroughly enjoyed. During and after our wedding, we had several guests ask for their contact information, which we gladly provided. We hope to attend future events with you guys performing :)
All in all, Yazz Events is hands down THE BEST entertainment there is! We highly recommend hiring them for any event!Yazz Events's reply:
BRIANNA! Thank you so much! We truly LOVED working for you and appreciated all the faith in our team to be a part of your special day. Thank you for this lovely review! THANK YOU! We hope to see you again soon at another event! -

HIGHLY Recommend Yazz Jazz!
Amy and Dale at Yazz Jazz are AMAZING! They really listened to us and worked with us on our music selection! Dale played all of the songs we wanted and even threw in some surprises from our childhood. We received several compliments from our guests regarding the music that was played, Dale was also very helpful with other wedding details and kept us on track regarding our timeline during the day of. We highly recommend Yazz Jazz! -

The band your guests will rave about
We hired Heat Wave via Yazz Jazz for our reception, and the dance floor was packed all night long! What first drew us to the band was that they sing the songs the way you expect to hear them so the guests can sing and dance along to their favorite songs. When we met with Amy, we were sold - she was so organized and had a clear sense of how to make the reception successful and most enjoyable for our guests. She helped recommend a timeline for key reception events (cake cutting, speeches, etc.) and had an online portal that made it seamless for us to request songs that must and must-not be played.
Our favorite part was that my husband was able to play the trumpet with the band during the reception! The guests went wild and it was such a special, fun moment. We also had a guitar during our ceremony, piano player during our cocktail hour, and a DJ for the final hour of our reception. We appreciated being able to book all of this (plus microphones and backlighting) through one vendor for a very fair price!Yazz Events's reply:
Thank you so much Shannon!!!!! We are so happy that you and Paul chose to work with us and hope you had an amazing time! :) -

Perfection!!!
My husband and I worked with Yazz Jazz’s band The Experience (12 piece band), working directly with Amy leading up and to our wedding day in November 2022. Amy’s fun and spunky personality made it an absolute pleasure working with her leading up to our big day. She responded quickly to emails/texts or any communications answering any and all of our questions to make sure we felt comfortable. We even had a slight snafu the day of our wedding regarding a vendor delivery on the size of our stage. Amy was flexible and made everything work perfectly, despite the sizing challenges with the stage. The music The Experience produced on our wedding was perfect for our vibe, getting people to dance and left guests saying that it was the most fun and memorable wedding they’ve attended!
We are so happy we had the opportunity to work with Amy and The Experience, and highly recommend to any and all looking for a wedding band! -

The absolute best time ever! Yazz Jazz brought the party to our wedding day and made it even more special than we could've imagined! Their energy and musical talent was incredible, and the combo of DJ and Band meant there was never a break in the dancing. The song request/wedding schedule website was easy to use, customizable, and a huge help in planning out the night. Amy and DJ Dale were extremely helpful in the planning process and even a few last minute changes that saved the day! Thank you both (and the whole band!) so much for that one. My sister was able to join in singing on stage for a song and rock out with the amazing musicians, which was an awesome bonus and something really special for the whole family. We couldn't recommend Yazz Jazz enough, and wish we could dance the night away again with everyone!! Thank you guys so much! -

Best band ever!!!!!
Just had Yazz jazz at our wedding last weekend. It started with meeting Amy to go over specifics. From there forward it was nothing but an exceptional experience. From the ceremony music, to cocktail hour to the dancing after dinner. It was everything we imagined and more. The dance floor was never empty!! They were sooooo good. There is not one negative thing we can write. They were attentive, professional and most importantly so much fun and so talented They sounded so perfect for so many songs the guests commented that they couldn't tell it was a band it sounded so much like the artist. If you have the chance go Yazz jazz!!! Amy was amazing to work with. Her voice is beautiful and she is so fun.Yazz Events's reply:
Thank you so much Karol!!! We are so happy we were able to work for you. We know you had other options and are so grateful to have been given the opportunity! We hope to see you both very soon!!!

This band is a must!!! We were so lucky to get Amy and the entire Yazz Jazz for our special night. Yazz Jazz absolutely completed our evening. From the ceremony, to the cocktail hour, to the dance floor, they kept us going all night.
Yazz Jazz is spectacular. Amy is absolutely amazing at helping you coordinate your evening. Not only is her music knowledge phenomenal, and she knows how to get a room going, but as a person she is an absolute delight. I could not have asked for a more magical event.
We will forever remember fondly the special evening they gave us.Yazz Events's reply:
Thank you so much Kate!!!! We loved working for you! We were so happy and honored to be a part of your special day!!! -

Blown away by yazz jazz and the heat wave orchestra!
We cannot thank Amy, Brooke, and the entire Yazz Jazz group enough for making our wedding so spectacular. We had to reschedule original date in 2020 due to Covid, and Yazz Jazz could not have been more understanding and helpful to secure themselves for our new date. Amy and Brooke were always available to answer questions and help with song selection and setup leading up to the big day. We were blown away with the band's fun, energetic, and incredibly talented performance. The dance floor was packed ALL NIGHT LONG and our guests are still talking about how amazing our wedding band was. We cannot thank Yazz Jazz enough for making our wedding night one to remember forever! - Ann and MikeYazz Events's reply:
Thank you so much! What an amazing night! We are so happy and honored we were able to work for you both and look forward to seeing you at the next party! -

Absolutely amazing work by YazzJazz. They were incredibly sweet, the music selection was priceless. Great flow between songs and kept the songs genre based on who was on the dance floor. I would hire them again for another event! They were the best! Our wedding was one night to remember! -

Attendees from my event STILL compliment our band. If you're contemplating using Yazz Jazz for your event, you will not be sorry. Visit one showcase and you're set. Such a great experience working with them. -

BEST BAND & DJ IN CHICAGO. Stop, look no further, and BOOK! I have been to wedding after wedding and this band ROCKED MY WEDDING. They had 225 people dancing till 1am! Everyone adored them and their talent is off of the charts! They are a dream to work with and so thorough. They make sure every wish you want comes true. Amy is a gem and is there to make your day shine. I couldn't recommend them enough and wish I could see them weekly to dance to my favorite cover songs. Their talent is just outstanding and you will never find a better band who will work with your budget and give you the quality they gave us. 10/10! -

Amy E. Sent on 05/31/2021Best Music Vendor Ever
I can not say enough good things about Yazz Jazz and Amy. We hired them for all of our music needs, a string duo for our ceremony, a jazz trio for cocktail hour, and DJ (Dale) for the reception. They completely exceeded all of our expectations. Phenomenal experience to work with them. Not only did they deliver above and beyond on our wedding day, but Amy was so wonderful to work with from the moment booked. Very responsive to all of our emails and willing to help with everything including recommending other vendors! Thank so much!!!Yazz Events's reply:
Thank you Amy so much!!!! We were so happy to be a part of your day and look forward to seeing you and Matt again in the future!!!! CONGRATS and thank you for putting your faith in our team!!!! -

We hired Heat Wave Orchestra (part of Yazz Jazz) as our wedding band and could not be happier with our choice. They were incredibly accommodating from start to finish and even learned a song for us that was near and dear to our hearts. We wanted a band that kept our guests on the dance floor from start to finish and man did we get it! They are amazing musicians and it felt like we were at a concert all night. We received endless compliments. We definitely recommend them! We know we will definitely be hiring them again. . -

Absolutely Incredible! Memorable!
Yazz Jazz Music and Production made my dreams come true. I grew up playing the violin for many years and it just seemed so perfect to have a violinist and cellist play for our wedding day. I told my husband years ago, while attending another wedding as a guest (that also had a violinist at their wedding), I would love to have that at our wedding some day. When it came down to it, our plans changed so many times from our original wedding day, we were in search for a duet (a violin and cello) for our ceremony. The music was so beautiful and the musicians did an amazing job. Amy ran the business side and communications. She was so professional and responded to my questions and late night emails, almost instantly (in minutes). She was so accommodating and flexible with any change of plan we had during this crazy pandemic year to get married. Thank you Yazz Jazz Music & Production!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM!Yazz Events's reply:
Thank you Lee Ann! It was an honor and privilege to work for you!!! (Especially during the pandemic!) Sending you love and positive vibes and hoping for an amazing journey for you both! :) -

The best wedding band!
I cannot recommend Yazz Jazz Music & Productions enough!! Our guests RAVED about the band, saying it was the best live music they have ever heard at a wedding. We couldn't agree more. The talent they have in this group is NEXT level and the energy they bring had everyone out of their seats dancing the entirety of the reception!! Their vocalists could S-A-N-G! My husband and I were married at a plant nursery in the suburbs which I know was not the easiest location to set up a large band! Yazz Jazz went on without a hitch and made us feel completely at ease about the whole process. We also had to postpone due to covid and they were extremely flexible and supportive.
We are so glad we went with Yazz Jazz and couldn't imagine having our day be as special if they hadn't been a part of it. -

Jessica Sent on 08/25/2020Yazz Jazz is perfection!
Due to the pandemic, our wedding vision has to dramatically change, but the one thing to stay constant was the helpfulness that Yazz Jazz provided to us. Pre-Covid, we were just having Yazz Jazz provide our ceremony music as well as our cocktail hour music because their musicians are amazing. But because of Covid, we had to cancel our band and asked Yazz Jazz to also play during our luncheon and we were not disappointed. Our intimate day was made even more beautiful by Yazz Jazz. Also, Amy was so pleasant to work with and so helpful. She put many of our stresses at ease. I would hire Yazz Jazz over and over again! They were perfect! -

James M. Sent on 10/26/2020Stellar!!!!!
I have had the absolute pleasure of working with the beyond amazing Amy Yassinger (owner/stellar performer!!) at various weddings, many times. She exudes total professionalism but with a cool looseness that is crucial in making EVERYONE...on the big day, feel at ease. This not something that is taught or can be learned. It's the secret sauce/formula that cannot be faked. Of course she and her killer performers tear it up entertainment wise! Weddings are indeed so fun...but, if you do not know what you are doing and do not exude that rare vibe that people can latch onto...you do NOT last long in this business. Amy is a seasoned vet and just has that special quality that puts her and her company on a much higher scale. -
