He made the entire music selection process so easy and worked with us to find exactly what we wanted." - Cynthia We looooooooooooove what we do, and would love to bring music to your celebration! "You don’t want someone that shows up on the day of and says, "I’m here, where do I set up?" Alex showed up from day one, at the wedding show and continuously after that, all the way till our big day! BUT, the best part about ALL of this is that he’s not just the guy that played at our wedding, we can now say he’s a friend, a friend for life! We can’t thank you enough Alex!" -Emmy "Not only was our experience with Alex seamless, but the professionalism displayed was the best of all our wedding day vendors. The whole experience was high quality, just like Alexander and his band. Working with Alex was a true joy, and I hope to use his services again!" -Ellen
