Booking the Flamethrowers to play at our wedding in NOLA was one of the best decisions that we made. They were very professional and responsive leading up to the event. At our request they learned the song that we chose for our first dance and executed it perfectly. Aside from our set dances (father, mother, 1st dance) we didn't provide them with any guidance, and they did a great job keeping the energy going all night playing a great mix of music that kept all of our guests (ages ranging from 18-80) dancing. Every time I'd look out at the ballroom I'd see nothing but empty seats because everyone was on the dance floor. My two pieces of wedding planning advice are 1) book the Flamethrowers, and 2) if you followed my advice on step one, then get a bigger dance floor, because these guys are going to pack it.
If you want to have FUN at your wedding then you must hire Flamethrowers as your band!! As a wedding planner I work with many bands and DJ's and I have to say that my wedding working with Flamethrowers produced by far the best results on the dance floor with a live band that I have ever seen! The band continued to surprise me all night long with awesome songs from different genres for every generation that was in attendance. At one point EVERY SINGLE GUEST was out of their chair and on the dance floor. I have the picture to prove it! :) And at the end of the night the band played a final song to celebrate the Bride and Groom's Friends and Family that had traveled to New Orleans for the big day! This resulted in a magical, spontaneous moment with all of the guests singing along with the band, while swaying arm-in-arm, and encircling the Bride and Groom while they danced. Seriously, it was MAGIC!! I will definitely be recommending Flamethrowers to all of my clients that want live music for their event!!!
This band is AMAZING! Hands down, could not have asked for a more fun band to play at my wedding in New Orleans. Our guests were on the dance floor as soon as dinner ended and didn't leave until the second line band came in. I had a great time, my husband had a great time, and our guests all raved about the band and the music they played. My husband sent them over a list of music we wanted to hear and things we didn't. They were really respectful and absolutely got the type of music we wanted to hear. This group is just really talented and I would not hesitate to recommend them again! If only we could have a second wedding (to eachother of course) we'd hire them in a heartbeat! Overall they just were outstanding.
AMAZING!!!!
This band was simply the best. They were very professional and accommodating to our every need. I was so impressed with the wide range of music played there was something played for everyone, kids and adults alike. So many people have told my wife and me how much fun they had dancing the night away at our wedding. Your wedding can be stressful enough to plan so I suggest hiring the Flamethrowers so you have one less thing to worry about. Thank you guys so much for a memorable night, truly one we will never forget!!
I am still getting compliments and inquiries as to who our band was that played at our reception. They did an amazing job keeping the crowd entertained and playing an eclectic array of musical choices. They even learned our first dance song so we could have a band play it instead of an iPod. If you're looking for an amazing deal for your dollar - look no further. This band is absolutely amazing!!
My son got married on 12/13/14 in New Orleans. He & his bride selected the Flamethrowers out of Lake Charles. I have been to a lot of weddings over the last few years and I can honestly and sincerely say that this band was one of the best, if not the best, bands I have heard in a long, long time. They played songs from many different genres and decades. I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone looking for a band for a wedding reception, or for that matter, any event. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed them. Based on the amount of people dancing, they were very popular with all the age groups at the wedding reception. Kudos and a standing ovation from this father of the groom. Flamethrowers are the real deal!!!
If you want a reception that will be talked about for years, this is the band for you! They will put on a show that will make you shed a tear for those special bride/groom/parent dances and then they'll make you wipe your brow because you're boogieing so hard! Every generation in attendance will be thrilled to hear songs they love! These guys are super talented and super fun!
I just love this band! My reception got rained out so we didn't get to enjoy them long enough but all of our guests talked about their performance for months after the wedding! They put on an amazing show and will get everyone excited! So much fun you will not regret choosing them for any event!!
The Flamethrowers certainly know how to put on a show!!! Tons of great party music kept the night going, and their crowd interaction was just so stinking fun. I'd recommend them for any party or reception, hands down. Can't wait to see them play again!
As a wedding planner, I am dependent on the band to help with the flow of the reception and working with the Flamethrowers is a piece of cake! It's obvious that each member of the band has a true passion for what they are doing and more than once they went above and beyond to make sure that the bride, groom and guests had a good time. They even learned a Celine Dion song for the Father/Daughter dance! They were very cognizant of my desire to keep to a timeline/schedule…for which I am always very appreciative! Aside from their professionalism, they are such a talented and fun band! They definitely bring the party and I will continue to refer them to my clients!
