As someone in the industry as a florist, hiring music for my own son's wedding was the culmination of gathered ideas. Boy and Bean was perfect for this garden wedding on our farm--our son's childhood home. Their music, vibe & experience was memorable. From cocktail hour to the walk down the aisle (garden path) was dreamy. ~Pam, Belle Flower Farm
Boy and bean are one of my favorite bands. Their music is jazzy and easy to sing along and dance to. We were so thankful to have them play at our wedding. They were incredible!!
We've been to a hand full of Boy and Bean shows around the PDX area over the years and I had always thought they'd be such a beautiful addition to someone's wedding due to their romantic and fun sound. Well, when it came time to plan for our own wedding I reached out to Boy and Bean and they were so accommodating and easy to work with! I sent them a list of my favorite songs that I've heard them play in the past and even included a special request of an instrumental-only version of "La Vie en Rose" for my aisle walk. Boy and Bean was one of the smartest decisions I made for our wedding and they really brought energy to the party! If you love a vintage, classy, and swoony music played by fun and smiling people then this is the band for you!
I met these folks a long time ago and was so happy to find them to play for our wedding. We had them play for the 1st hour as quests showed up during a happy hour of sorts. It was a great vintage flair and sound to compliment our day.
As an Event Planner, I've had the pleasure of working with this band for nearly 10 years. In fact, I enjoy them so much that I hired them to perform at my own wedding. Luke is great at communicating and is incredibly responsive. When on-site the band is professional, easy to work with and always a crowd-pleaser. They have been and will remain my "go-to" entertainment.
Boy and Bean made my wedding so special! They were so professional but also very personable and easy to communicate with. All of my guests loved them and keep commenting about how amazing they. I highly recommend hiring them!
