Bob has done many celebrity events in the many years he performed, from Kevin Bacons cousins wedding (which he was not allowed to play Footloose, LOL), to events with Mike Schmidt of the Phillies, and events for the Flyers, Eagles, Phillies & Sixers and to his favorite of all time, Jason Kelce & Kylie McDevitt's wedding. As you may know, Jason Kelce is the starting Center of the Philadelphia Eagles (NFL), Super Bowl Champion and Mummers Mayor of the Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl Parade. The wedding took place at The Logan in Philadelphia, with over 200 guests including Eagles players like Nick Foles, Zach Ertz, Brent Celek, Connor Barwin and Riley Cooper to name a few. His Brother, Travis Kelce (not dating Taylor Swift yet) Super Bowl Champion Tight End of the Kansas City Chiefs who spoke a hilarious 10 minute toast (or roast) to the newlywed's and also like his big brother Kelce, they danced a lot too. All About Events was the wedding planner off and on location and had it down to a science where they never missed a beat, we highly recommend them, ask for Sarah.

Mary ... There are not words enough to describe how ecstatic my husband and I are with this group. When our original DJ fell through, Bob and everyone at East Coast came through and saved our day. Even more, though, Bob was more than willing to help however he could, and he made our wedding day the wedding of the century! We are so blessed to have had Bob as our DJ, and we would recommend him and East Coast to anyone who would be willing to listen in a heartbeat!!
Cara ... DJ- Bob (Owner of East Coast Event Group) was energetic, crowed pleasing, and such a riot. During the week of our wedding, East Coast was very busy, so they asked Bob to come out and do our wedding, and he did not disappoint. The dance floor was filled during the entire reception. Every single one of our songs was played and the crowd could not stop commenting on how fantastic the music was. Bob allowed our dream wedding to come alive on the dance floor.

Bob Palio's Demo
Jennifer ... I used Bob & East Coast Event Group for my wedding photography, video and music. They were extremely professional, affordable and I was thrilled with each of their services. Finding one location for three major aspects of the day really made things less stressful during the planning and provided a more cohesive team the day of the wedding. I've recommended them to friends and family and none have been disappointed.

Christina ... We decided to use East Coast after two of my best friends used them for their weddings. We had such a great time dancing the night away. It was an easy decision! Eric and his team were very helpful during the booking process. They made it seamless. Bob was our DJ for our wedding. He was incredibly friendly and played a great mix of music throughout the evening. Bob really knew how to play to the crowd. He was very flexible and made sure everyone had an enjoyable time. Our dance floor was packed throughout the evening. The biggest hit was his 90s mix! I highly recommend Bob and Eric for your next event!!

Lindsay ... East Coast Productions was FANTASTIC! Hands down the best choice we made for our wedding entertainment! Bob Palio and staff were extremely helpful throughout the entire planning process. They provided their expertise and gave great music tips/advice. He played all the songs from our list and made the night flow very smoothly. The uplighting added a special feature and made the ballroom look beautiful. We had the best night of our lives...THANK YOU East Coast!

Erin ... Bob DJ'd our wedding and it was awesome! The dance floor was packed the entire time, even before dinner was served! He played all of our requested songs and the entire night flowed seamlessly. He was also a great MC! About 80% of our rather large bridal party had long/hard to pronounce names. We spoke on the phone a few days prior to the wedding to go over them and my friends were amazed that they were pronounced correctly! I would definitely recommend ECEG.
