CJ and Sean were completely wonderful throughout the entire process. They are super friendly and very easy to work with. Very understanding about exactly what we wanted for the cocktail hour, reception/dinner music, and Sean was awesome as a DJ/MC. Kept the party going, and didn't play a bad song the entire night! In fact, we had many people come up to us in the weeks after the wedding and tell us it was the best music and dancing at any wedding they'd been to. All in all, they're worth every penny!
Response from Caroline Joy Alegre Music:
Hi Chris!
We had a wonderful time playing music and DJing at your beautiful wedding. We're so glad you enjoyed our performance. Thank you for the positive feedback, and congratulations again on tying the knot!
Cheers!

I contacted Caroline to play ukulele for a vow renewal proposal that I was having after dinner on our anniversary. She was amazing! Caroline has a very classic voice, reminiscent of so many of the great female vocalists during the 1930s and 40s. All of the songs she played were as if they were originally written for a single female vocalist with a ukulele. She played as we walked up to the picnic area, and when I gave her the signal (a not so subtle head nod), she played "La Vie en Rose", and we danced for moment, then I got down on one knee, and asked her to be mine again (my wife, not Caroline!) We will be asking Caroline back next year for the vow renewal as well.
I highly recommend Caroline for any event. She was very professional, and always responded quickly to my messages. You will not be disappointed. Hire her today!
Response from Caroline Joy Alegre Music:
Thank you for the lovely review, Will! It was an immense pleasure to perform for you and your beautiful wife. Serenading you two, on that gorgeous hill overlooking Hawaii, is a unique and wonderful memory I will always cherish. I'm so pleased to have been included in your special vow renewal proposal, and I look forward to (hopefully) returning to sing for you again next year!
We have had CJ perform at 4 events at our store and every time she is very well received! Her sound is a paradoxical blend of soulful and playful. I don't know how she pulls it off, but she does! She is a joy to listen to and watch perform. One of the events was with her sister Lauren at which thy performed kid songs for a group of children. It was a lovely morning!
CJ is very warm and very professional. Communicates in a timely manner and showed up on time each time we had her perform.
I look forward to having her back at future events, and highly recommend her.
Over the last few years I've worked with Caroline Joy on a number of projects: from booking her for live performances, to studio singing, to album projects. She has a perfect combination of total professionalism, combined with a first-rate artistic gift that she has consistently brought to each endeavor. I could not recommend someone more highly for a live performance, songwriting, or session work.
CJ is tremendously talented with a powerful voice and thoughtfully cultivated sound. I have seen her bring tears to eyes with the emotional power she brings with her original songs and sing a longs and dance parties begin when she belts out a select and perfectly CJ-I died cover song. She has a wonderful sensibility for playing the right things for any occaision from wineries to fundraisers to weddings to kids parties (she's also fatastic with kids!) All of this and she's a professional to boot. You can't go wrong with Ms. Alegre.
Super tasty. Soulful, prime, real, enjoyable music. Always a good call.
