    Jake's FretWorks is the best!

    We absolutely loved working with Jake (and Kristen!) for our wedding in May! All we knew going in was we wanted a DJ to handle the sound for our wedding and keep the flow going strong, but Jake brought so much more to the table. Jake's FretWorks can either DJ or do a live performance during the ceremony, and we opted for the DJ experience. We connected with Jake immediately, he heard us and brought ideas to make our day even better. He organized our thoughts, laid them out in a structured way, and was able to suggest music that fit right in with what we like. He also made sure the sound was spot on and everyone was mic'd up properly, which went a long way to relieving stress from us. I want to mention two things in particular. First, the screen logo they made for us. Knowing we're both gamers (and what our favorites are), they created a fantastic Final Fantasy-inspired logo/animation and had it displayed at the DJ booth during the reception. It was a great touch that really amped up the whole experience. Ask him for the screen logo, you won't regret it. Second, our private last dance. We knew what song we wanted to dance to for our last dance of the night, and Jake offered to serenade us live with the song instead of just playing it. Having the song sang to us was touching and emotional, and really ended the night on a beautiful note. I honestly couldn't recommend Jake's FretWorks more. Jake and Kristen are both absolute professionals and just real, down to earth people who want to make a wedding a night to remember. We went with Jake thanks to reviews and recommendations, and it was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.

    Wedding

    We couldn’t have asked for a better MC than Jake from Jake’s Fretworks for our wedding. From our first conversation to the last song of the night, Jake was professional, organized, and an absolute pleasure to work with. Not only did he keep our reception running smoothly and ensure every transition happened seamlessly, but his live music truly made our day unforgettable. His talent is exceptional, and the quality of his instruments and sound setup was impeccable. Every performance added a special touch that created the perfect atmosphere for both us and our guests. Jake has a natural ability to engage a crowd while keeping the focus on the couple, making everyone feel comfortable and involved throughout the celebration. We received countless compliments from our family and friends about his music, professionalism, and the incredible energy he brought to our wedding. If you’re looking for someone who can expertly MC your event while delivering outstanding live music, we highly recommend Jake’s Fretworks. Thank you, Jake, for helping make our wedding day everything we dreamed it would be and more.

    Amazing musician/DJ

    Jake was fantastic! From start to finish he was extremely professional and organized. But of course the highlight was on our wedding day listening to him play-just awesome! He helped us to customize our song selection for the ceremony and reception and then we switched to DJ mode for some dancing fun! Guests were able to make requests which we loved. Highly recommend Jake for your wedding or any other event! We will be having him back for future parties!

    Chtistian Wedding

    We hired Jake for our wedding and he went above and beyond to create exactly what we were looking for. We wanted a Christian focus and in addition to what he already knew, he learned some new songs at our request. He was very thorough and detailed and many guests commented that he was great.

Yes! We have the ability and willingness to learn YOUR song in whatever way you want! Whether stripped down or sounding like the original track, we do our best to bring the feel you desire!
As worship musicians at a non-denominational Christian church, we provide a huge collection of worship songs and hymns. We also play Christian contemporary. We are believers who fully understand Christian values and the intended message of the songs. While we consider this to be more "faith-based" than "religious", we will certainly consider providing music for a more traditional, religious gathering.
Being a standalone service who provides full amplification and microphones for your officiant and vow exchange, we arrive at least 1.5 hours prior to our first note. We like to be fully prepared with any kinks worked out prior to your big moment. Our price includes full setup and sound check.
Our regular price includes up to 25 miles from our home office in Elizabethtown, PA, 17022. After that, we charge $4 per mile to the venue. This covers any additional musicians as well.
First and foremost, we use backing tracks to help fill out the sound and emulate the original. This allows you flexibility and creativity you cannot get with a DJ, while getting the live music taste you want without breaking the bank with multiple musicians. This is unique to live musicians in the area. Secondly, most guitarists only play acoustic guitar, while we specialize in electric guitar. Electric guitar is a very versatile instrument that can play a wide array of genres, using the power of effects to create amazing spacial sounds and dynamics. Lastly, we specialize in providing worship during Christian weddings.
We have a list of vetted female vocalists that you can add to any service. We can also provide a violinist as an additional add-on.
