I’m not even sure where to begin with how incredibly talented and amazing Pocket Change is! Choosing them for our wedding was one of the best decisions we ever made. My husband is ...
a musician, and music was a top priority for us. We first saw Pocket Change at a friend’s wedding last summer and knew right away we wanted them for own wedding this past May 2025. In fact, aside from our venue, they were one of the first vendors we booked!
From start to finish, everything was executed flawlessly. Dave was a dream to work with - so accommodating, responsive, and just an all-around great guy. The lead singer, Alexis, is mind-blowingly talented, and the cocktail hour duo, Andres and Andrew (guitar & sax), set the tone for the evening. Our guests could not stop raving about the music!
One of the highlights of the night was when the band let my husband live out his childhood dream by joining them for an encore song. It was such a special, unforgettable moment and I will forever be grateful to Dave and the entire Pocket Change crew. We love you guys. Thank you for making our day even more special!!!
We couldn’t be happier that we hired Pocket Change for our wedding! Our planner recommended them, and after seeing them play at a local bar, we knew they’d be the perfect fit. Lead...
ing up to the day, the band’s manager David, who was also their exceptional drummer, was great to work with—he made sure the flow of events was clear and everything went smoothly.
They nailed every part of the night: a guitar/sax duo during cocktail hour, soft piano and guitar for dinner, and then the full band bringing the energy for two straight hours of dancing. The setlist was tailored to our favorites, the vocals were incredible, and the dance floor stayed packed.
Pocket Change’s talent, professionalism, and versatility made our wedding unforgettable. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a band that truly knows how to keep the party going!
We booked Pocket Change for our wedding in September. Everyone we talked to during the event and since the wedding have told us how much they LOVED the band.
Dave was very easy to...
coordinate with. He took our preferences and direction for the ceremony, cocktail hour and rest of the reception and made it seamless. Their set up looked great, they were all as nice as it gets, and their sound was fantastic. I would definitely recommend without hesitation.
Pocket Change performed at our ceremony and they were so talented and super easy to work with. We requested 3 songs, including a very specific version of one of them, and they perf...

to work with. They are true professionals and made all music related aspects of the wedding go smoothly. They are extremely talented and had everyone at our wedding dancing the entire night. Our guest were raving about them and we could not have been happier. Thank you Pocket Change!!
Dave was great and easy to work with. We had a saxophone/guitar duo for cocktail hour which were amazing. We had requested a slower version of a song on their list for our first ...
dance which was fantastic! They also learned custom songs for our parent dances which sounded amazing. The dance floor was packed from start to finish & our family and friends were raving about them all night! Couldn’t be happier!!!
Incredible musicians and so easy to work with!! We have lost count of the amount of compliments and comments about how fun and talented they were! We feel like we won the wedding b...
and lottery with Pocket Change! We can’t recommend them enough because they were also so easy to work with and responsive!
There are genuinely not enough words to describe how AMAZING Pocket Change Tunes are! Truly the best wedding band we have ever seen and we are so lucky we had them for our own wedd...
ing!! Dave was amazing to work with - incredibly receptive to all our song requests (including customizing lyrics) and very on top of all logistics. The day-off could not have run smoother with them; they played perfectly, got our crowd SO excited and engaged (not every wedding band can evoke crowd surfing!), were amazing MCs and DJs (flawlessly queued ceremony processional/recessional songs), and were just incredibly sweet people. Our guests have talked non-stop about how they were the best wedding band they've seen - we had guests dancing non-stop all night. Each member of the band was so fabulous and talented, really unbelievable. Everything about Pocket Change is a 10/10, we wish we could get married over and over and keep booking them! If you book Pocket Change, you've just done the best thing possible for your big day!!!
Pocket Change and Dave were so easy to work with! From coming up with the set list to help with the ceremony music everything was great. We got rave reviews from all of our family ...
and friends.
Dave made the process SO seamless from the first conversation to the day of our wedding. We had last minute requests and changes and Pocket Change made it all happen for us. Our gu...
ests were up on the dance floor BEFORE dinner, so if that doesn’t sum it up then I don’t know what does!
We had their guitarist Andrés play the ukulele and guitar for our ceremony, and their pianist and sax player during cocktail hour. Highly recommend exploring these options. My husband and I can’t thank Pocket Change enough!
We were so very happy with Pocket Change! Truly, we cannot recommend them enough. From the beginning, the band was quick to respond and very professional. They helped us curate a l...
ist of songs to play during our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. We were thrilled by their kindness, proactive communication, and care. The reception was beautiful, with the music setting a romantic tone. They helped to make our cocktail hour jazzy and spirited as well! And then for the reception - oh my goodness they had everyone up and dancing! I still, a few months afterward, have friends and relatives saying how wonderful it was to have a live band. And what we loved the most was how the band engaged our guests, making sure everyone was laughing and dancing and having a wonderful time. David and the entire band were excellent - I highly, highly recommend them!
Pocket Changed performed at our wedding back in Oct. 2023. They were a blast, had everyone dancing from beginning to the end. Dave was so pleasant to work with throughout the whole...
process. I would absolutely recommend them for anyone getting married!
Our wedding reception was, without a doubt, an epic dance party thanks to Pocket Change. But their talents were on display well before the reception. Dave was a pleasure to work wi...
th and did a great job building a set list around our tastes, and editing based on our feedback. They learned a custom song for our entrance to the ceremony, and they did a top notch job sound mixing/mic volume-adjusting during the ceremony so everyone could hear well during a windy day. Cocktail hour was great with their tunes in the background.
When it came to the dancing, they totally excelled. First off, they learned another custom song for our first dance, crushed the delivery, and even let me get up and do a little rapping on the mic. From then on, the dance floor was packed the entire night - no hype needed.
And a big bonus - within a few days they had posted a really great video montage to Instagram. It was a nice treat to have that! Check it out: https://www.instagram.com/reel/CwSvw01qzX3/?igshid=MWZjMTM2ODFkZg==
Would definitely recommend booking with this group!
Pocket Change was professional, kind, courteous, lively and TALENTED. We had them play at our wedding last week and they did such an amazing job MCing the night. When they didn’t p...
lay they DJ’d for us. Their music was great, everyone was asking how we found them all night. One of our guests is even thinking of booking them for his daughters wedding. Highly recommend!
Excellent performance - a lot of fun and heard from all of our guests that they greatly enjoyed the band!
Plus they were very easy to work with and flexible
Everything about Pocket Change was a perfect addition to our wedding. Choosing our band was a major priority for us, as we know from experience they can make or break the reception...
. Pocket Change was everything we wanted, and more. From our first meeting with them, we felt comfortable and heard. They did a fantastic job of listening to our preferences and adapting that to what they were best at to deliver a great performance. They also did a great job of suggesting additions to our "must plays" that really went with the vibe we were looking for. Also, as a side note, the bride is a teacher, and we loved that Pocket Change is a band of music teachers!
In addition to being absolutely perfect as a wedding band, they were also extremely affordable! We worked with some amazing vendors all around, but Pocket Change is the first review we're writing, because we really wanted to thank them for what they did to make our day special. We had a miscommunication with our venue about who was in charge of ceremony audio, and Pocket Change was able to jump in last minute to provide audio for the ceremony. They also let one of the bride's best friends join them on stage to sing Dancing Queen, which was so special for the bride and groom. There was a small issue with the wireless microphone during speeches, and their technician was able to jump in and solve it immediately! They were great at going with the flow and making situations that could have been stressful not at all. In almost every conversation we have had with guests since our wedding, someone has brought up what a great band they were. Hire Pocket Change - you will not be disappointed!!!
Pocket Change was the perfect pick for my in-laws' 50th wedding anniversary party, and I'd highly recommend them for any wedding or big event requiring a band! Dave, the primary co...
ntact, is incredible and did a great job emceeing the event, speaking gracefully, carefully keeping the time to keep things on track, and accommodating just the vibe we hoped for with the music. Dave and band provide the perfect balance of professionalism and fun. Whether you're looking for light jazz or an all out dance party, Pocket Change is the BEST! Don't hesitate, definitely book them. You won't be disappointed.
