The band itself was phenomenal! They sounded great and had a stellar mix of songs that they picked to match our requested genres. They played light music during cocktail hour and t...
hen full, big band performance after dinner. Everyone danced and they took a few requests from my groom’s parents. The musicians? Amazing. The band owner? Phenomenal, and he stepped in to make things right when we had an issue (that I will explain). The only reason this isn’t a 5-star review is because of a major communication issue with the band’s coordinator from 30 days before the wedding until 10 days before the wedding. She did a great job from 9 months before the wedding (when I signed the contract) until about three months before the wedding (when I sent back a revised song list). Then, 30 days before the wedding, me and my wedding coordinator did our regular contacts to all our vendors (me with one question about final payment; her with scheduling the final details call). We each reached out repeatedly over the next week until 13 days before the wedding, at which point we had left voicemails and emails but heard nothing back. My coordinator and I began talking about emergency entertainment backup plans, and I contacted the band’s owner on LinkedIn to see if he could help fix this. He contacted us and we almost immediately heard back from the band coordinator, but then she went radio silent again for three more days (10 days before the wedding). At this point, my fiance texted the band’s owner to explain that we still had a communication problem and to please fix this issue. Communication was simple and quick after this, and we didn’t have any further issues. Based on all the reviews, this seems to be an outlier experience, and the band really was phenomenal. So while I hate to ruin their 5-star streak, this issue did make us extremely nervous that we couldn’t so much as get a returned phone call from the coordinator less than two weeks before the wedding.
Bread and Butter were the absolute best band for our wedding!! We had a trio of strings for the ceremony and cocktail hour and a 7 piece band for the reception.
The strings were ...
beautiful and their playing of Shania Twain and Vampire Weekend as our processional and recessional songs were a weekend highlight. So many people have reached out after the fact to tell us how beautiful the strings were and how special it made the night.
The 7 piece band brought so much energy all night and played all of our favorite songs!! The guests loved them so much they cheered for an encore, and they delivered!!!
I can’t recommend them enough and will be telling everyone I know to book them for their events. Thank you for a super fun night!!

uch says it all. Plus we got a lot of comments about how good the band was. It wouldn’t have been the same without this band.

layed songs suited for all generations and kept everyone on the dance floor all night. Our guests are still commenting on how great the band was!
Bread & Butter was an EXCELLENT wedding band! We initially thought we would hire a DJ, but we are so glad we decided to hire a 7 piece band instead. Before the wedding, they sent ...
a questionnaire for us to fill out any special requests and specific songs that we wanted them to play (or not play). The day before the wedding, we decided to include some traditional New Orleans music and they were so accommodating, even with a very last minute request. I believe there may have been some initial confusion about a microphone for our officiant, but they remedied that so quickly that I never knew it happened until well after the fact. They perfectly spaced out all of their breaks so that they could cover our entire cocktail hour and reception. Even when they played recorded music during the band breaks, it was always fun and upbeat. When the band played live, they sounded great and kept the energy level way up! Everyone absolutely loved them!!
This band is amazing!!!! We chose a 7 piece band and they did not disappoint. They were very easy to work with and accommodated all of our requests, including our lengthy ‘do not p...
lay’ list and a special happy birthday request. They had the dance floor going all night long. They even endured a little colder weather to keep the party outside all night. So thankful for them being a part of our day, highly recommend!!!

Bravo!!!

r the reception. Our original band had to cancel with less than two months notice before our wedding day. THANKFULLY Bread and Butter was available and extremely accommodating with such short notice. The band was beyond professional and communicated very easily and effectively to make sure our wedding celebration would be the most special. My wife and I wanted a night where everyone was on the feet dancing the night away and B&B delivered exactly that! If you want an incredibly talented group of musicians to get the party started and keep the energy high, then book break and Butter for your wedding!!

in the wedding. Always a quick response time from the booking manager. Our guests kept asking who our band was the entire night! They have such a wide range of songs and played a mix of old & new, as we had asked them to. They really helped the "flow" of the night go perfectly and were aware of when to slow the music down or amp it up! The dance floor was packed the whole night, and even overflowed into the other wedding spaces! We cannot say enough good things about Bread & Butter Band. We would recommend them to anyone as they were worth every penny.

We hired Bread & Butter and when I tell you Alex and his band surpassed all of our expectations, OMG! We picked out songs, they knew them all! We were invited to listen to them per...
form before our wedding and we fell in love with every singer and band member. We hired them as a 5-Piece Band and I will definitely hire them for any of our family upcoming events! They played every song I wanted and to hear their acoustic set as I was walking down on the beach to meet my groom made me cry happy tears! Alex is professional, has the greatest disposition and was extremely attentive to our musical palate.
Our 1st dance began with my husband singing lead and playing rhythm guitar with the band. Alex and the band not only welcomed this but enjoyed it! I will never forget this moment for as long as I live! Our family has not stopped talking about our wedding and we owe so much of this to Alex and the band members...
I am just trying to think of something I can host to have them again!
We had an amazing time working with the band! Before we made our decision Bread & Butter invited us to hear a few songs while they were warming up at a local wedding. It only took ...
one song to convince me (and my parents) that they were the perfect fit for our wedding.
Alex has been running his company for many years and is very professional, responsive to emails, and a blast to work with.
The band plays a variety of genres and works with the crowd. We had a few guest that hadn't been impressed by wedding bands until they heard Bread and Butter! The guest were in love music and didn't leave the dance floor. We HIGHLY recommend Bread and Butter!
