About Bright Set Entertainment

“I hired Bright Set Entertainment for a client of mine, as music for her engagement party at The Inn at Longshore in CT. From the beginning, Cassandra was wonderful to work with, very communicative, responsive, helpful in answering my questions, and genuinely a nice person. Bright Set Entertainment offered many different options/ensembles for musicians to choose from and Cassandra helped me to narrow down my options and pick the best ensemble for my client's party. The musicians arrived early, were prepared, and played amazing Jazz music all afternoon. Plus, they had everything we needed for music during their breaks, mics for speeches, etc. I will surely be using Bright Set Entertainment again for any of my musical needs for events all over New England.”

“Cassandra was extremely professional, supportive, and beyond helpful. A delight and easy to work with, she basically became our unofficial therapist when we felt overwhelmed. We loved how smooth the entire booking process was. Cassandra listened to our wishes and needs, responded promptly, and accommodated us whenever possible. We had violinist Zoia for our ceremony and cocktail hour, and DJ Josh to kick off our reception. Both exceptionally talented and friendly, they played all the songs we requested and were flexible with our guests’ requests. Thank you Bright Set Entertainment for providing us with an effortless and wonderful experience. We will certainly use your services and talented artists at our next event.”

- Saly E.

“Cassandra helped us with our Magic Mirror Photo Booth and a cellist for our cocktail hour. She was very responsive, thorough, very helpful when it came to questions I had and when I would ask her suggestion or opinion, she was always spot on. Professional but down to earth…attention to detail and didn’t skip a beat! Loved her process (left me feeling reassured) and was stress free - would definitely recommend and use her services again. Thank you!”

- Melinda F.

“We hired them for our wedding a few weeks ago. They were very accommodating and were able to provide us with a live musician for our ceremony and cocktail hour, and a DJ for the reception. They both knocked it out of the park. Couldn't have been happier with how everything turned out. They were great to work with and I would recommend them to anyone looking to book with them.”

- Matt E.

“I have worked with Cassandra in the past for many events. She is incredibly detail-oriented, personable, and friendly, and has a strong focus on customer service. She is a pleasure to work with. Her DJs, musicians, and photo booth operators have the same dedication to customer service as Cassandra. I enjoy working with them and look forward to working with them in the future.”

- Lindsay H.

“My experience was amazing! AMAZING! We used Bright Set Entertainment for our Engagement party in Westport, CT in May 2021. Jonathan Ball on sax and Scott Arcangel on piano! They were extremely friendly, they played great jazz music, and they really elevated the entire vibe of the event! Classy and fun! We were considering maybe not having music, but we are soooooo glad that we hired this ensemble! They were perfect!! I would most definitely work with them again and I would strongly recommend them without any hesitation!!!”

“Bright Set Entertainment helped me plan the perfect music for my wedding. We had the option of combining any instruments or DJs for any amount of time throughout the night. We ended up having a violin and keyboard for the ceremony and cocktail hour and then switched to a DJ for the reception. The instruments did beautifully for my ceremony and DJ Josh was an awesome addition to the reception. He coordinated the events of the night and was able to read the crowd and get everybody up dancing! I was also able to Zoom with him beforehand and really get a feel for who he was and he could understand the vibe I was looking for. The entertainment company themselves were also very helpful and sent over many music suggestions for songs to choose from during certain portions of the night. A great experience overall!”

- Emily G.

“We absolutely loved working with Bright Set! From the start, Cassandra was amazing in providing us with entertainment options for our wedding ceremony and reception.

Everyone was extremely professional and on point at all times.”

- April C.

“I am a wedding planner (Something Bleu Wedding & Event Planning) and I recently worked with Bright Set Entertainment to source a classical guitarist for a client's wedding. Cassandra was great to communicate with and the guitarist, Robert did a great job playing ceremony music at the church. I would work with Bright Set Entertainment again and would recommend them for any of your wedding music needs!”

- Julie R.

“Cassandra was so helpful every step of the way. When I reached out, I was unsure of the type of band to have play at my dad’s surprise birthday party. Cassandra asked me a few questions regarding my interests and made the recommendation of having Hal Holiday and the Tones perform. She was spot on with her recommendation! People are still talking about how great they were and we could not have been more pleased. I highly recommend using Bright Set Entertainment to book your event band, as well as Hal Holiday and the Tones to be the band to play!”

- Kelly Boyle, LeslieJames Events

"Both my wife and I were genuinely intimidated by picking the right music and DJ for our wedding. While we were excited to find the right person, we weren't so jazzed about the process! Cassandra made it super easy to look through possible DJs and options, was helpful and communicative throughout the entire process, and helped make this piece of the wedding puzzle way less of a 'thing' than we thought it would be. Her recommendation for the reception DJ and violinist at our ceremony were excellent, and the music made our day into the best day we both have ever had! 🙂 I can't recommend Bright Set highly enough!"

- Doran D.

- Jodi C.

"As a sound engineer, I've been thrilled to work with Cassandra and the rest of Bright Set. I always know exactly what to expect walking into a gig, and all of the smallest details are taken into consideration. Any time something has changed, Cassandra is very timely at reaching out with adjustments to make sure everyone is on the same page."

- Greg D.

"We used Bright Set to book the bands for three of our events and I can confidently say that the music was by far the LEAST stressful part of the whole event process! Casey is incredibly detail-oriented, taking care to ensure that the band is a good fit for both your budget AND your vision. But the thing that really blew me away about working with Bright Set was the personal attention we got...We will definitely be using Bright Set Entertainment again in the future!"

- Janis H.

"DJ Josh created the exact atmosphere that we had hoped for, facilitated the flow of the event by being our MC, and did a fantastic job of reading the 'crowd'. At the start of every song, we found ourselves connecting with DJ Josh by giving a nod of excited approval or a thumbs-up. He did such a wonderful job of setting the tone for the night; his spirited enthusiasm, professionalism, and genuine positivity made the evening so enjoyable for all. We hope there will be another opportunity to hire a DJ, because DJ Josh will be our first choice without hesitation."

- Anne W.

"The girls were on time, very nice and played the hour and a half during ceremony and at my cocktail hour. The music was picked by my husband and I and sounded so beautiful. We had two violin players one of which was a student and you wouldn’t think she was because she played with amazing sound!"

- Amanda

- Brittney Davella, Rosaria Restaurant and Function Facility

"We used Bright Set Entertainment recently to book a band and found them incredible to work with. Cassie brought some great examples of musicians, and really was able to understand the vibe we were going for. I also loved how the samples she had were what they would sound like live, versus studio produced samples. She also was incredibly responsive and professional. I didn't even know where to begin when thinking about the right music and she made the process seamless."

- Lola M.

The venue coordinator spoke highly of you too, Cassandra, as you reached out to her and asked for an outline of the day. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!"
