Book them, you absolutely won’t regret it.
They were one of the bigger ticket items on our budget and were worth every penny. These people are PERFORMERS, top tier talent and I can’t stress that enough. Not only are they singing, they are dancing, chatting with guests, starting dance offs, etc. 10/10 never looked back.
Blitz Nation played for our wedding reception and we were blown away by their energy and sheer talent. Everyone in attendance was raving about their performance. It was also an incredibly smooth process to work with them — from payment to song selection and everything in between, they were a breeze to work with (which, when you're planning a wedding, is a miracle). Highly highly recommend!
Blitz Nation performed at our wedding reception. I have one word to describe them - Phenomenal! Truly amazing.
Any questions?
We are so glad that we booked Blitz Nation for our wedding! They were fantastic performers, and all of our guests enjoyed their music! I also recommend the cold floor sparklers add on, as it made our grand entrance and first dance very special!
the best! made our wedding so much fun, my husband is already planning an anniversary party and booking again.
You will NOT be disappointed
We used Blitz for our wedding and absolutely loved them! The strings were perfect and learned the exact songs we wanted really quickly! The DJ and live accompaniment were so much fun, kept the night going, and kept everyone engaged and moving! 100% recommend!
We recently had the pleasure of working with Blitz Nation for our wedding reception at the Langham Hotel in Pasadena, CA, and they truly made our celebration unforgettable. From start to finish, their team was phenomenal, providing the perfect soundtrack to our special day and ensuring that our guests were entertained and on the dance floor all night long.
Blitz Nation went above and beyond our expectations in every way. Their DJ, Peter, skillfully curated a playlist that perfectly matched the mood and energy we wanted for our wedding. Every song choice was spot on, keeping the atmosphere lively and our guests excited. The seamless transitions and expert mixing kept the energy high from the first dance to the last song of the night.
What truly set Blitz Nation apart, however, was the incredible performance of their band members. They didn't just play music; they brought the party to life. Their interaction with the crowd was fantastic, creating an engaging and dynamic experience that everyone loved. The band members played along with the songs, adding a unique and personal touch that made the night even more special. Their ability to read the crowd and keep the momentum going was impressive and ensured that the dance floor was packed the entire evening.
Our guests couldn't stop raving about how much fun they had and how amazing the music was. Blitz Nation created an electric atmosphere that made our wedding night an absolute blast. Their professionalism, energy, and talent were evident in every moment, and we couldn't be more grateful for the unforgettable memories they helped us create.
We wholeheartedly recommend Blitz Nation to anyone looking for top-notch entertainment for their event. Their team is exceptional, and they will undoubtedly make your celebration as memorable and enjoyable as ours was.
Thank you to Blitz Nation for making our wedding day so magical and for keeping the party going all night long!
We loved having Blitz Nation perform at our wedding!! The vocals were excellent and all of our guests made sure to tell us the same. We wanted a party band and couldn't have been happier with Blitz Nation. Their entire team was great to work with and we were thrilled that they played all the songs we requested. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an awesome band for your wedding!!
UPDATE: We did end up getting a response with a thorough explanation and they did seem to want to genuinely make things right so this rating has been updated to reflect that.
This review will reflect the live musician services of Blitz Nation we experienced via booking Second Song.
We were beyond excited for the live music as guest entertainment was one of our top priorities for our wedding. There's no feeling like the one live music provides. In fact, this was the deciding factor for why we went with Second Song over the dozens of highly rated DJ vendors in the LA/OC/IE area.
The String Duo that showed up for our ceremony was great; arrived early, was very professional and played the selected songs wonderfully. Unfortunately, we could not say the same for Jay, the Saxophone player, whom we booked for 2 hours as the surprise performance and finale of our wedding.
On the day of the wedding, the Saxophone player was a no show. We got zero notice and he could not be reached by our planner. The ultimate nightmare right? We were told that Jay had a "once in a lifetime" opportunity to record with a prominent artist which went overtime and he selfishly notified Blitz Nation and Second Song at the last second.
Blitz Nation apologized for this and sent us a small $150 Ticketmaster gift card to make "new memories" and "put this behind us" only after we told them how disappointed we were.
Unfortunately, you will only ever have one wedding, there is never a second chance... Tens of thousands of dollars spent for this one day, just for your planned wedding night finale to go MIA. You will never have all of your family, friends, and loved ones (who flew in from out of the country, traveled thousands of miles, booked hotels) together at the same place and time to share this experience. This may be one isolated event, but this happened to us. If you ask me, for a wedding, one is one too many. When we think about this, we are still sad and disappointed.
We booked Blitz Nation for our wedding, and the team is incredible. I'd highly recommend them to anyone planning an event where music will be an key piece of the night.
Our ask from Blitz Nation was fairly comprehensive - we wanted DJ services across guest arrival, cocktail hour, and dinner; with a different vibe for each section. Then we had live musicians with a DJ (what they call Blitz Fusion) for 3 hours at our reception.
The team worked with us for months ahead of the event to craft the vibe. They picked a DJ (Bryan) who was the perfect match for our event. Then they selected live musicians who put together an amazing performance, interacted with guests, and hit the dance floor themselves (something we requested).
Specific shout out to Rob and Matt - they're the best and made our event go super smoothly! Couldn't imagine a better team to work with for our wedding night.
We worked with Blitz Nation for all of the wedding entertainment for our big day on the recommendation of our wedding planner. Rob was extremely organized and helped us with the details from start to finish. He was very responsive in answering any questions or concerns leading up to the big day. Blitz Nation made everything so easy and they provided all of the entertainment for our wedding: acoustic guitarist for the ceremony, DJ for cocktail hour and dinner, MC for announcements, an AMAZING band, and a DJ for late-night karaoke! The talent was extraordinary. Our guests could not stop talking about the music, and the band especially.
We hired the saxophonist + cello player duet for our wedding and they were awesome! Such a classy vibe. Highly recommend.
Blitz Nation and Fortune West Band transformed our wedding into a full-on concert experience! From the moment they took the stage, it felt like we were transported to the front row of our favorite music festival. Their presence was electric, igniting the atmosphere with an energy that was palpable throughout the night.
As the night unfolded, it became abundantly clear that we weren't just hosting a wedding; we were curating a once-in-a-lifetime musical extravaganza, and our guests knew it. The seamless blend of their setlist felt like a carefully curated playlist, weaving through genres and eras with the finesse of seasoned performers.
With each song they played, the crowd became more enraptured, swept away by the infectious rhythm and enthusiasm of Blitz Nation and Fortune West Band. Our dance floor was packed the entire night! To say that they were the highlight of our special day would be an understatement; this was a masterpiece.
They delivered a performance that transcended mere entertainment; it was a testament to their unmatched talent. Their ability to connect with the audience on such a profound level is a testament to their artistry and professionalism.
To Blitz Nation and Fortune West Band, we extend our deepest gratitude for infusing our wedding with the magic of music and transforming it into a concert experience that will be cherished for a lifetime.
If you're searching for wedding entertainment that transcends the ordinary and elevates your celebration to extraordinary heights, look no further—Blitz Nation and Fortune West Band are the epitome of musical excellence.
I have used Blitz Nation for several of our school events and a personal one and have never been disappointed. They are dependable, and the entertainment is high quality! I will definitely be using them again in the future.
UNBELIEVABLE! You can't go wrong booking this fantastic band.
Robert Corrall is fantastic! Highly recommend DJ Rob for your wedding. Rob was very thoughtful in planning and collaborating with us before our wedding. His music planner makes it so easy to add songs from Spotify playlists. Rob closely followed our desired playlist. We really wanted a wedding full of dancing and fun music and that is what Rob provided. While all weddings have last-minute adjustments, he thoroughly ensured everything proceeded smoothly. Rob dressed nicely and was very professional. Thank you Rob for being a part of our special day and for making it so memorable!
Rob & the Blitz Nation team were such an epic crew to work with! They made us feel like their number one priority from start to finish, and delivered an absolutely incredible experience making our wedding dreams come true. Every song was a crowd-pleaser; the Viva band was so lively and entertaining; I don’t think one person left the dance floor for 3 hours aside from refilling their drinks lol My wife and I got married at Cielo Farms in Malibu and even with a strict 10pm noise ordinance, DJ Rob completely nailed an unreal silent disco set — even the guests who had initial reservations re: the silent disco said they couldn’t believe how much fun it was. We cannot endorse Rob & Blitz Nation enough. 12/10 recommend through and through. Wedding of a lifetime.
I hired Zoie to come sing for my wife's birthday and she absolutely crushed it. Incredible voice, great personality, and lovely person overall. The whole restaurant was loving her. We're going to hire her again for sure.
Blitz Nation was a one-stop shop for all of our wedding entertainment! They were quick to respond throughout the entire wedding planning process and were more than willing to accommodate requests or wait for answers while I confirmed details with my venue. We were able to book our DJ, 9-piece band, full ceremony PA setup, and all lighting additions (up-lights, dance floor wash, and stage lighting trees) through them on one easy invoice. They also have the option of renting a photo booth! They were incredibly self-sufficient and low-maintenance - they were even able to do a near-silent soundcheck while guests were on premises! The DJ did a fantastic job on timing of important songs and was a great MC, being on the mic just the right amount.
THANK YOU FOR MAKING OUR EVENT MEMORABLE!
Super talented, creative, and kind. Highly recommend!
Super easy to work with, they were always responsive, and the music was fantastic at my wedding.
Blitz Nation made my wedding magical! They were on time, professional and AMAZING to listen to. Natalie's voice really set the atmosphere and mood we were looking for on our special day. Thank you again!
Absolutely fantastic performance from Fortune West! Star quality act! Star quality management!
We hired Fortune West for our wedding. We could not have had more fun, and a better experience. We wanted something that was not your typical Wedding band, and was going to keep the older guests dancing, but still give our friends the perfect kind of party too. Fortune West provided exactly what we wanted. All our guests said it was the most they had ever danced at a wedding, and we have got nothing but compliments ever since.
They are also very easy to work with, quick to reply, and made it a complete experience from start to finish. Hire Blitz Nation and you will have a packed dance floor at your Wedding!!
