Owned and run by Matt and Marie

SoundWave started in Buffalo in 2008 as a DJ company. Today it is run by Matt and Marie Conta, a husband-and-wife team: Matt heads our DJ division and Marie heads our photo and video division.

Both stay involved in the planning and on the day itself, and you can meet with them before you book, by phone, Zoom or in person.
