The music for my wedding was my highest priority. My amazing wedding planner, Mike, got me in touch with Chuck from 17 South band and he immediately went to work getting me a set l...
ist, price quote and answered any questions I had. We had a lovely conversation the day before the wedding to iron out any last minute details and he kept me laughing the whole time. Such a nice guy! The day of the wedding, they were quick getting set up and were absolutely professional while also being relaxed, friendly to all the guests and putting on an amazing show. The sound guy was amazing, too. My only regret is not having someone record the whole thing so I can listen to this amazing band over and over. They were perfect and everything I dreamed of for entertainment on the big day!
17 South is an absolutely fabulous band! They played for our daughter's wedding and all of the guests had so much fun dancing to their amazing music-young and old!!!

have asked for a better band--they are extremely talented and were very easy to work with throughout the wedding planning stages. Over a year later and we are all still talking about how awesome this band was!
Thank you 17 South for making this a magical night for our daughter!
17 South exceeded our expectations in every way. They were responsive leading up the the wedding, learned a new song for our first dance, and brought the energy all night.
Amazing. Easy to work with. My neighbor had a wedding coming up and liked them so much that she booked them after hearing them at our wedding.
I saw 17 South at a fundraising gala and knew I had to have them at my wedding! They are great, and play a huge variety of music. They played jazz early in the evening, then pack...

I will start by saying, the guests enjoyed the band, and their music. It was at Francis Marion Colonial Room (amazing reception hall).

manager came over to me during the 2nd break and asked for their check, my maid of honor was upstairs feeding her newborn. Manager told me they will not play again until they get paid (did not respect that a newborn needed to be fed). The band took over a 30 minute break (per contract was suppose to only be 15 minutes). My maid of honor found the manager and 2 other band members just hanging out in the lobby, and she paid them.
Come 11 PM end of reception, the manager, came over and put his hands on my (the bride's) shoulder and was yelling at me that he was never paid. I found my maid of honor (who was 100% sober) and she explained to him that she paid him, and he starts yelling at her. My maid of honor found the 2 band members he was with, and they both agreed that she gave him the check (and they found it in his suit jacket). The band members informed us that this always happens. I will say majority of the band took advantage of the open bar, and were overserved.
As a bride this was 1 of the worst ways to end a fabulous wedding night, band manager hands on my shoulders and yelling at my maid of honor, all because he was so drunk and did not remember. I would not recommend this band as contract was broken, they drank a lot of the alcohol, and put hands on a bride, and raised their voices.
