Sang Along Entertainment

Jay from Sangalong was the DJ at our wedding reception last Saturday. He did an absolutely fantastic job planning and coordinating with us in the weeks leading up to the big day. Very professional and receptive to our questions and input. Always responded back to us promptly. Sangalong offers years of experience in the industry. We selected the DJ and Photo Booth package and were not disappointed. Sangalong showed up and set up early, the music sound quality and song selections were great, and the photobooth pictures were a big hit. I would recommend Jay and Singalong without reservation to anyone looking for a good local DJ and possibly photobooth option.

4.5 stars — Best DJ and MC for the price. CEDRIC is the best MC I ever seen that also speaks Mandarin. He is very responsible, caring, and attentive to your needs. I would recommend Cedric if u are looking for a Mandarin speaking DJ that actually listens and is flexible to work with. He made my night a memorable one with fun activities and they were on time. The music was played as scheduled. I used SAE for playing a video slide show, DC, MC and basic lighting. I would highly recommend! The only bad part of SAE is their office location. It’s hard to find, inside a blg and doesn’t look safe. U can pay the final balance after the activity.

This is a long over due review, but I guess it’s better later than never! Our wedding was in October 2014, Jay and SAE were a critical part to make our wedding fantastic. When we started to search for an MC, bilingual is a must since our parents speak Chinese so are many of the relatives and guests, and at the same time we have guests and a groomsman who only speak English. We contacted a few MC’s and had a face to face meeting with Jay in their NY office, the process was smooth and we felt comfortable from the get go. Jay was really easy going and took time to understand what we needed and also gave his honest opinions on related topics. If he wasn’t sure about something, he would say that instead of making empty promises. We had a daytime wedding, so some of the equipment designed for evening use, e.g. neon light for dancing, was not needed, Jay worked with us to adjust the price. SAE has a website with their MC’s videos posted on line. It’s a good help since we can go online to look at some of the previous works they have done, and felt comfortable with the particular MC for our wedding. The wedding day couldn’t have gone any better. Jay and crew were there on time, set up everything as we agreed upon, even extra speakers at outside for our ceremonies without additional charge. They did a great job and we heard many good comments about them afterwards.
We are very happy with Jay and SAE. Thanks for helping make our wedding so wonderful with lasting memories. We will definitely recommend Jay and SAE.

A bunch of my friends had used SAE at their weddings and as a guest, I had a blast. When it came time for my wedding, I knew I wanted a bilingual Chinese-​English MC, and didn’t hesitate to go with SAE. Kenny (MC) was fabulous and had helpful suggestions with the timeline of events. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Kenny & the SAE team made our wedding perfect. It was a multicultural interfaith wedding and they provided excellent service… SAE had everyone dancing for hours, the tea ceremony was very special & the professionalism of the company ensured that our wedding went off without any problems.

We just had our wedding in August and everyone came to the wedding spoke highly of SAE team! Cedric and Jay are very professional and patient. They paid attention to your need and make every dream you have come true. I even had a minion photo booth idea and they made it! Also they played my favorite songs! The most important thing for me is that they can do bilingual and combined traditional Chinese style and modern American style in my wedding, and make everyone happy.
Thank you guys so much for giving me this wonderful memory, I really really appreciate it and highly recommend this dedicate team!

Amazing! We are from Boston and there’s not many MCs available in Boston. They are more cater to the «older» generation, so we ventured out. We found Sang Along Entertainment on Unilocal and saw all these great reviews and decided to drive to New York to meet them. Jay was very professional and personable at the first meeting, making the whole process very quick and easy. We trusted Jay and told him to pick the right MC for our late 20s early 30s crowd that likes to party and have fun, and he chosed Cedric for us. Excellent choice! All my guests had fun and enjoyed the entertainment provided by Cedric. Many of them asks where did you find him?! It was a blast, perfect wedding, perfect entertainment, perfect music! Thanks so much SAE crew!

We just had our wedding in July and was very happy with the SAE staff especially our emcee Kenny and dj Jay. They were super professional, paid attention to our needs and delivered. You can tell they are very passionate at what they do. Everyone had a great time. Thanks again for a memorable night. You guys are awesome.

We were recommended to use SAE from a cousin who used them for their wedding. We used the cake service, the MC/​DJ, makeup and photographer.
Overall, this is good for the price, but there were a few glaring mistakes that I find hard to overlook.
Photographer:
The photographer was very friendly and showed up on time. I can’t review the photos yet as they are currently still pending; Will update once I get them.
Cake:
The cake was delicious, huge, and beautiful. Delivery was on time and professionally done.
Hair/​Makeup:
Venus and Eunice did a great job on hair and makeup. Everyone looked gorgeous and the makeup lasted all night.
DJ/​MC:
The song selection was excellent. Kenny did a great job of keeping things going and was very polite and professional.
However, the parent/​child dances ended up being pushed to being at the tail end of the banquet, and I had to remind Kenny that we still had to do them.
Additionally, a bridal party group dance that we specifically discussed during the final meeting seems to have been mislabeled and overlooked. The music for this dance ended up being relegated to being background music during one of the games when I inquired about the song not being used.

Not happy. For the amount that they charge it’s really terrible. All I have to say is I had a list of do not play songs and lo and behold… the songs are played! Why in the world if I give you a ‘DO NOT PLAY LIST’ would you play the songs on that list?!

I don’t have an account and am using my husband’s.
I saw SAE work their magic at 2 weddings so it was in my mind to hire them before a date or a venue was decided on. Afterwards, we received tons of feedback from our guests about how great and professional SAE was. I believe a couple from our wedding plans on booking them too.
With all the chaos during the day, my husband and I barely had time to communicate with Kenny. But, it was all seamless due to their experience and how well well both Kenny and Jay paid attention during our meetings. Aside from entertaining, I feel like SAE went above and beyond. My husband and I were pleasantly surprise by the switching of our preselected game prizes to something we never thought of. (I don’t want to spoil it in case this might be applicable to anyone)
Kenny also has impeccable time management skills and ensured that everything went along smoothly. I was pretty vain being unable to pick just 3 dresses, which Kenny said it was impossible for 4 dress changes. However, he made it happen by tracking me down in the photo booth area and signaling me throughout the day on when to change to make sure it worked out. There were no awkward moments of silence or hiccups with SAE’s performance on the mic or with the music.
I have no regrets and highly recommend SAE.

We just had Sang Along (MC and DJ services) for our wedding on 9÷6÷14. The pre-​wedding meetings (3 meetings) were smooth and comprehensive. They have a vast bank of songs to choose from, and actually made some good recommendations.
On the wedding day, we did not have time to meet with the MC and DJ. However, MC Kenny went with the flow and kept the crowd moving and hyped up. There were no glitches with the music. Speakers have pretty decent quality. Songs played at the wedding were great.
We are happy with their service~

Our wedding wouldn’t have been as memorable if it weren’t for SAE! Kenny, Jay, and their team had total control of the reception, which flowed perfectly! They made sure that everyone had a blast! Thank you for all your hard work SAE! I’d recommend you to anyone, anytime.

Sang Along Entertainment was one of the best vendors we had worked with for our Memorial Day Weekend (5÷25÷14) wedding!
I had contacted them about a year out from my wedding, and had great communication from then until even now, a month after our wedding, with Jay, who handled the sales inquiry. He was super nice to work with, and was very responsive to emails (I was planning the wedding long distance and actually never met the team person until less than two weeks before my wedding). He was very nice with handling any concerns we had.
We had met with MC Cedric and Jay for our final meeting, and they were very easy to talk to. We were having a Chinese-​American wedding, and it was very important to me that our dj/​MC spoke great Cantonese well as English. They went over everything with us that night, and even offered suggestions for games in case our guests were not the dancing type. At that point, we had just let them know we were having a Pokemon themed wedding (yes, you read that right!), and they both got incredibly excited and came up with more ideas to help with our theme.
On the day of the wedding, they were super accommodating and all our guests loved the entertainment. They officiated our tea ceremony for us and kept the crowd engaged and happy the entire night! These are a great group of guys, they even sent me pictures of our wedding that one of the team members took during the event — much appreciated since we’re still waiting on our professional video/​photos to get back.
I highly recommend this team! They were fantastic from the very beginning through now, still. They do have a slightly high traveling fee in my opinion (we had them travel from Chinatown to the middle of nowhere– Shamong, NJ), but after the wedding I think it was definitely worth it!
THANKS!!!

From the first moment we contacted Sang Along, we knew we will have an awesome wedding and we did! We had such an amazing wedding (5÷31÷14) and its all because of the talented MC, Kenny and team! He’s professional, attentive, and crazy fun all night long! Couldn’t have asked for a better person to MC for us. Everyone LOVED you Kenny! Thanks again!!! Shout out to the DJ! you guys rocked with the songs selection and spinning!
Thank you thank you thank you for making our wedding day special!
We highly recommend Sang Along !!!

Flawless execution for our reception (4÷27÷14) by MC Kenny and the Sang Along crew! I would recommend the whole team without hesitation for all of your wedding needs! Their experience and love for their work goes a long way amid all the wedding planning chaos. I promise, you won’t be sorry!
MC Kenny is quick on his feet and his presence was well received by both our Cantonese speaking guests and our younger English speaking crowd. We were all a nervous wreck about our opening entrance, but he ironed everything out for us in a matter of a few minutes an hour prior to the guests arriving. Guests were thoroughly engaged with the game selections and even weeks after the wedding, we are still receiving comments about how much fun they had at the wedding. His organization skills with the schedule were immaculate. He kept active communication with us about timing and briefed us on what we should be doing next without fail. Finally, the most notable save was during the cake cutting. The venue staff threw out my allergen-​free cake slice that I brought in specifically for this part of the wedding. We were only told this under the spotlight when everyone was waiting for us to take a bite. Kenny sensed something was wrong and diverted the attention to my husband. I am grateful to have avoided an allergic reaction on my wedding night!
DJ Tony really had the crowd dancing and threw in a nice surprise that remixed a few songs from our first dance mash up. That piece was personal and it’s rare to hear creativity from a DJ at Chinese weddings! They usually just spin straight from tracks with no personality. You can tell he has really mastered his craft of DJing and can tailor it to your needs.
We also decided to add extra lighting and a photo booth 2 weeks before the event. Despite the short notice, Kenny and Jay were very accommodating. The lighting really dressed up the mood and made the venue livelier. As for the photo booth, guests were having so much fun with it. You can choose a theme or take a more general set up. Either way, the props were a lot of fun, pictures/​prints were really high quality, and the designs of the prints were forever changing so guests wanted to come back to collect more.
I would’ve never said this while wedding planning, but thanks to Sang Along we have wedding withdrawal from the amazing night they made it out to be! Thank you!

My wife and I hired Sang Along Entertainment for our wedding banquet, June of 2013, in Queens, New York, and the music slide video. It was a wonderful experience, as we both were in California, and they worked very well with our schedule. They were willing to answer questions over the telephone and worked around the difficult logistics.
Our music slide video was awesome! It was both fun and touching at the same time, and there was not a dry eye in the crowd.
At the actual banquet, Cedric was our MC, and we met with him before hand. He spoke fluent Cantonese and English and was very familiar with all of the traditional customs. He was super professional, and was able to handle «high-​stress» situations. When he got going, he really hyped up the crowd to the right mood. The dance floor was always full due to his energy and due to Sang Along’s wonderful music choices. My sister wanted their playlist.
They included games that most of my family had never seen before, but everyone got involved, and there was a lot of laughter.
Overall, my wife and I would highly recommend their services, and wish them the best!

Sang Along took care of my wedding last weekend and it was a blast. Kenny and Jay took care of all the details even though we were unprepared for our final meeting. They were able to get a feel for the audience and made it extremely entertaining. Our guests loved Kenny as the MC — he was funny and entertaining. Since we had a traditional Chinese wedding, Kenny also took care of all the games and our guests loved it all. More importantly they helped us with picking the songs and told the bride and groom exactly what to do at what time. We were extremely stressed out the last two weeks prior to the wedding so it was great not having to worry about a thing and had a blast!
Through Sang Along, we also hired the photographer/​videographer who were the best to deal with large families and told us exactly how to pose. Absolutely the best people to handle your wedding needs and to make everything fun!

We searched all over NYC for a MC that speaks perfect English, Cantonese and Mandarin, and a DJ who can spin music across all genres. A friend recommended me to Sang Along Entertainment; she said if I ask for Kenny and I won’t be disappointed. She was right.
First, I want to mention how accommodating Kenny and Jay are with our crazy schedule for meetings, and how quickly they respond to emails and phone calls.
We requested for Kenny for our back to back weddings that started in Westchester at 11am and ended in Flushing at 11pm. He made sure every last details were taken care of, and made sure every guests had time on the dance floor for games, dance and pictures. I love them for their passion and creativity. They had made my wedding (08/​31/​2013) so perfect and smooth. I highly recommend Sang Along Entertainment.

My wife and I selected Sang Along Entertainment for our wedding on May 19, 2013. We were looking for something that wasn’t too traditional with an emphasis on fun entertainment. After speaking with Kenny, we felt confident that SAE could provide us with what we were looking for.
SAE gave us an excellent fusion of a traditional Chinese-​styled banquet with Western Style entertainment. We had selected Kenny as our MC since he was fluent in Mandarin, Cantonese and English. Kenny has an excellent ability of keeping the night flowing smooth and upbeat. The music selection was excellent, and implementation of our custom-​selected songs was fantastic. SAE listens and works with your demands and offers excellent suggestions.
Aside from the MC/​DJ package, we had also selected their photo-​booth and stage decoration package — this included decoration of the bride and groom’s sweetheart table along with the reception table and runway. The setup was immaculate and proved itself again once we received out photos from the studio from the wedding night. Well worth the cost.
SAE are on point. They made our planning experience very easy and the results we were given well-​surpassed what we expected. Thank you SAE!
