Wedding Entertainment at Celestine
Bespoke DJs, bilingual MCs and live musicians beneath the Manhattan Bridge.
A skyline dinner party deserves a perfect soundtrack
Tucked beneath the Manhattan Bridge at the water’s edge, Celestine turns a wedding into the city’s best dinner party — floor-to-ceiling windows on the East River, a seasonal terrace under the bridge, and an Eastern Mediterranean kitchen running the night.
Genesis Events has curated entertainment for luxury New York weddings since 2008. Intimate buyouts run on mood: a terrace ceremony at golden hour, dinner music tuned to conversation, and a joyful, close-quarters dance floor to close the night.

What entertainment costs at Celestine
Entertainment for a Celestine wedding is quoted to your celebration, not sold off a shelf. A professional wedding DJ is the foundation, and many couples build from there with a bilingual MC, live cocktail-hour musicians, ceremony sound and custom lighting design.
Because every element is optional, the most useful next step is a tailored quote. Tell us your date, guest count and the moments that matter most.
