For our wedding, we hired the Orchid Reed band, and we are very pleased with the band's work. It is a band made up of professional musicians, and our guests enjoyed the party just as we expected. They have a pretty wide range of songs. Totally recommended, it's a really great band.

We hired Orchid Reed Band for our wedding and they were the best decision we made! The dance floor was full from the first song to the last, and they had a great sense of when to keep the energy up and when to slow things down. Guests are still telling us how much fun they had! What I'll remember most, though, happened before the wedding. I wanted to surprise my husband by singing the opening of our wedding song, "Sweet Child O' Mine," and the band met with me privately a few times to rehearse. They were patient, encouraging, and made me feel like I could actually pull it off. On the night, they played it perfectly and the surprise landed exactly how I'd hoped. I'm so grateful they made that moment happen for us! If you're looking for a wedding band, hire them. You won't regret it!

We hired the Orchid Reed Band for our neighborhood “Around the World” community event, where four different houses each hosted a country featuring food, drinks, and some had music....

We were the final stop of the evening, combining Colombia and the USA, so we were looking for a band that could play both Latin American music and American cover band songs from 90’s to present. I reached out to Berklee School of Music, and within an hour, Santiago contacted me. He said that Colombian/Latin music combined with American cover songs was exactly what they specialized in, making them a perfect fit for our party. Santiago and the band were fantastic! They played a great mix of Colombian music and American hits, and everyone at the party loved them. Their music created the perfect vibe for our outdoor backyard celebration and really helped make the evening special. We would definitely recommend the Orchid Reed Band and would absolutely hire them again in the future!

everyone enjoyed the Colombian and American music. Food was delicious too! Thank you again for having us!
