Great performance. Easy to work with 10/10
Souled Out did a FABULOUS JOB at our daughter’s wedding! We never got off the dance floor! They kept the party going with
a variety of pumped up, jamming, crowd pleasing tunes! Not only did they get the crowd involved in the performance, they joined us on the dance floor to really pump us up!!
Spectacular band! Amazing experience!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
Great Band. So Fun and Exciting! Had everybody on the dance floor !
Any questions?
Souled Out kept my dance floor rocking! I had multiple guests comment on how much fun the band was, and Dave was great to work with as well.
Just wanted to let ya’ll know how incredibly thankful that we are to have had Souled Out play at our wedding! We cannot say enough good things about y’all and will definitely recommend SOULED OUT to our friends! They were the best and made our wedding so special!
Such a fun band! The vibes were right and the party didn’t stop.
Best Wedding Band!
We had the absolute best time dancing the night away thanks to Souled Out! They had everyone on the dance floor the entire night thanks so their enthusiasm, interactions with guests, and of course great music selections. We will be forever grateful for Souled Out for helping to create the wedding night of our dreams!
Souled Out/The David Mouton Experience is the best event band you could hire!
I could not recommend Souled Out/ The David Mouton Experience MORE for your wedding or party. They were professional, incredibly talented, and more than I could have wished for our wedding. The music was soulful and funky, every band member was so incredible, they really bring an amazing New Orleans flare to their performance. They were all so nice and approachable. They brought and setup all of their equipment and literally played the house down. I wish it would have lasted forever. Hire them for everything before they get famous!
All of my wedding guests had the BEST time with Souled Out! Dave was very professional and responsive and made sure he had all of the information he needed from me before the big day. He played all the right music and read the crowd perfectly!! All ages were having a blast on the dance floor and were raving about the reception days after! I am so glad we chose Souled Out to play at our reception for our special day!!
BEWARE— inquire about double bookings prior to hiring!
For starters, we have seen Souled Out perform on prior occasions and they have been fantastic, however this was not the case for our wedding day in January. We had multiple issues with the band that led us to write this review. We paid $8500 for our 4 hour reception + ceremony music and we felt they did not live up to their price or standard that they advertise.
1. The band had another wedding the same night as ours and we were not informed of this fact. They got the singer we specifically requested, as well as the extra horns (including the owner with the saxophone). We only had 7 band members and not 10 like we expected. Only 1 horn and 1 female singer.
2. The owner ditched and left right before the ceremony and told my wedding planner on a whim. She then had to coordinate someone to play our ceremony music as their sound tech would not play it (even though we paid for this service). The venue staff had to jump in and coordinate our music.
3. Poor communication throughout the planning process. We practically had to beg to get a phone call in. Finally got in touch with owner to review our questionnaire that they requested 3 days before the wedding. Our questionnaire included first dances, specific song requests, & a “do not play” list which clearly was not reviewed by the band prior to our wedding. Or perhaps this was because we relayed all of this information to the owner who did not pass along that information and was not present during our ceremony or reception.
4. Technical difficulties! During their scheduled break, we sent over our pre-made Spotify playlist which was the band’s preferred music platform. They were unable to play it smoothly with various glitches and several minutes of silence and start/stop music. As it turns out, you cannot play 2 playlists from the same Spotify account at the same time. Apparently the other wedding was on a break at the same time. One of our GUESTS had to assist with the issue. If you “always book 2 events on the same night” (as we were told after the fact) you should have already known and anticipated that fact.
5. The band did not announce that our second line was happening after the reception, therefore some of our guests missed the entire thing. They even tried to stop playing 15 minutes early.
6. Contacted the owner after the wedding to relay our frustrations, and we were told that we would receive a partial refund since we clearly cannot redo our wedding. We followed up 2 weeks later and were then told to wait until the end of the month. It has been nearly 2 months now and we haven’t heard back since.
Like I said before, we have seen them before and they have been great which was our reasoning for hiring them in the first place. But even some of our guests who have seen them perform as well commented on how it wasn’t the typical Souled Out high energy that they have seen in the past. I do not want to discredit the band members who did show up as they did perform, however we were just expecting a male vocalist and other horns as well. We also paid for 10 vendor meals, and had to increase our stage size and our dance floor size ($$$) to accommodate their full band which was an unnecessary cost addition. If we would have known that there were 2 weddings on the same night and we wouldn’t get the full band experience, we simply would not have booked Souled Out.
My wife and I saw a Souled Out performance years ago when we first began dating. I remember being so impressed with their performance that I knew I would have them play at our wedding! We danced all night and had so much fun at just a local bar concert. Fast forward many years later and many other opportunities to listen to different bands. Some at the same venue, some at other venues, and others at different weddings. None made the lasting impression Souled Out did for me. I’ve always loved horn bands and man do they get the job done. Seven years later I proposed to my wife, shortly after we picked the venue, but I wouldn’t commit to a date until I made sure Souled Out was available. I reached out to Souled Out via social media and was contacted shortly after by David Mouton. He asked me some questions regarding what we were looking for and I told him the story. He wanted to give us the same experience we had on that night we first heard them. We booked them immediately. Then we had to wait a year for the actual date! Before the wedding, we were surprised when they announced they would be performing at the Ponchatoula Strawberry Festival. This was a little closer to our house than their hometown, so we were able to travel to see them from the first song to the last! Once again, a stellar performance! On the wedding day the band arrived well ahead of time, all of them were dressed to impress! My wife had some special songs she wanted for the wedding ceremony and David was able to accommodate us. As for the reception, my wife and I danced all night long and my guest had a blast! I can’t recommend them enough! Book them! Souled Out’s saying is “We are the party” and I couldn’t agree more!
I debated writing this review but felt the need to for weeks now especially now that I received my wedding video. When we got engaged, it was no question we were booking souled out. We had seen this MULTIPLE times and the energy and performance was unmatched. They played music for all ages and we truly enjoyed when they performed. Fast forward to my wedding on November 11, 2022 and disappointed was an understatement. The week before we had sent in a request list of songs we enjoyed that we have heard them play before. The night of my wedding none of the songs were played and I re-requested them during my reception. The band wasn't even playing an hour and my guest overheard them already talking about if it was time for a break yet. The band took a 40 minute break and played a so call "playlist" while they took this break. Mind you, My contract stated a 30 minute break or two 15 minute breaks. No one was next to the computer to manage the music that was being played. My dance floor was completely empty and people were beginning to become upset. My photographer went find the band twice to change the music which no one came until me, the bride, finally walked outside to complain and made someone come in which I received attitude for. The band played brickhouse three times and the singer at points was literally yelling/singing, I guess you would call it, into the mic at points to make the songs last longer. My husband and mother were furious. People at my reception began to talk and questioning if I even booked the right souled out. I called the manager the day after to state my concerns which was pushed aside. He then notified me that the girl lead singer was sick and could not make it. This was information was released to me the DAY AFTER. He came up with every excuse in the book and stated he would watch the tape and get back with me. He also stated he was not there but a band should be able to put a good performance without their manager. My mom called a few days after me also to complain stayed and on the phone with the manager for at least an hour. Again, every excuse stating the band did a "good job" it just wasn't what we wanted to hear YET I payed for this band and music I wanted should have been played. My dance floor should have never been empty; my guest are party type people. The next weekend they played at a wedding 45 minutes north of me and multiple people at my wedding didn't believe that it was even the same band. The bride was pulled on stage; the energy was amazing. It's just disappointing as a bride to watch exactly what you wanted and pay for happen not even a week later. We watched our wedding video and instantly was upset all over again. So as bride, be careful when booking them. I hope they play for you like they portray on the internet because I surely didn't get that for my wedding.
I have been sitting on this review for over a year, and honestly I’m afraid to say anything that isn’t a gleaming review bc the owner, David, does not take criticism very well. Without going into every little detail I feel like fell flat, we booked Souled Out for our wedding and there were a couple late performers, and when we were ready for our first dance (which were not live songs, they only required a press of a play button) David’s response was “weddings aren’t normally on time”. My husband and I spit outside in the cold for 20 minutes for him to get our first song playing. Not only was our first dance song not ready to play on time but my husbands dance with his mother song (also not live) didn’t play until an hour into our reception which took away from our schedule for him and I to eat together. When booking, David guaranteed we would meet prior to our wedding to go over logistics, so things like this didn’t happen, and that never occurred. We were emailed a song request list and form after asking him to go over the night beforehand several times. I have seen them perform prior to this and the energy and performance was great, but for us it was just flat. I never felt like a priority ever after bringing my concerns to him after our wedding. I would have felt a lot better had the owner not dismissed our concerns and made us feel listened to, and trying to discuss the ways in which we weren’t happy with his actions afterward really went sideways. He wouldn’t listen and didn’t care. The actual performance was fine, but the organization and the treatment we received was sub par. Several of our vendors took note of the lack of professionalism and backed us up that this was far from industry standard.

There are just truly not enough words to describe how amazing Souled Out is and how grateful we are to have had them as a part of our day! They brought the party and kept the dance floor rocking from beginning to end. They also played at each of my cousins weddings in 2018 and 2020, and they are consistently PHENOMENAL! Dave is kind and communicative, very easy to work with. We HIGHLY recommend Souled Out for any wedding or event you may have!
One of the best vendors you can hire to provide entertainment and a party vibe to your event. Our wedding guests loved them and they coordinated a private last dance where they performed“Can’t Help Falling in Love” and moved my groom and me to absolute tears. Thank you so much for the opportunity to have you at our wedding ❤️❤️❤️ we love y’all!!
From the beginning of my reception to the end, I had guest asking me who the band was and telling me how great they were! Thank you to Dave for all the communication during the wedding planning process. You guys rock and bring the party!
Run, don’t walk, and book Souled Out for your wedding! I first saw them at a wedding four or five years ago, and that was when I knew I wanted them for my own wedding when the time came. Our wedding was nearly two weeks ago, and we are still hearing from guests that are telling us how awesome the band was. They kept the party going all evening and kept the energy up, which was very important to us. They were extremely flexible to work with through two venue changes, one due to COVID and one due to weather (the week of the wedding). We couldn’t have been happier with our choice to go with Souled Out!
When Ryan finally proposed (after 8 years) I knew Souled Out would be providing the entertainment for the night. Who else could possibly do the job, when Ryan was the one up their entertaining people with them for 14 years. After attending countless Souled Out shows, I knew exactly what songs I wanted and they delivered. Ryan was even convinced to take over the mic for the epic rap battles that commenced. Souled Out is always a good time, from their song choices to their dance moves to their crowd interaction. Souled Out made our reception the party it was meant to be.
Souled out was so much fun to have at our wedding. They kept everyone out on the dance floor all night long and made sure we all enjoyed ourselves. Everyone keeps raving about them a week later. If you’re considering them, book it! They without a doubt made my wedding the best night of my life.
When I got engaged I HAD to have Souled Out play at my wedding. We chose my wedding date around Souled Out’s schedule. Then, when the pandemic forced me to change my wedding date AGAIN we chose an alternative date that allowed us to have Souled Out. They surely did NOT disappoint! These guys got the party started early and kept it going all night long! They interact so well with the crowd and match the energy. They could have played for 6 more hours and the dance floor would have remained packed. Our guests kept asking who my band was and telling us how much fun they were! Everyone had a BLAST and these guys exceeded my expectations! Dave was easy to work with, accommodating, and professional. If you are trying to decide on a wedding band BOOK THEM and FAST. I promise you won’t be disappointed!
Souled Out was the absolute best for our wedding reception! Everyone had the BEST time and I love how they get the crowd involved so much! Highly recommend these guys for any event, thank you so much for helping make our night so perfect!
This band was perfect for our daughter’s wedding. The guest were headed to the dance floor immediately and never left! Great entertainment and interaction with the crowd. Thank You Souled Out!
Excellent band, up beat, engaged with the crowed. They were outstanding, would highly recommend them...
Souled Out rocked the house for our wedding! Our guests were in awe of this amazing band all night. They play so well together and are so much fun. They made being a bride in 2020 a breeze. Even in a pandemic and two hurricanes, they still showed up and made our night perfect! We wish we could relive this night over and over to party with this band again! They were AMAZING!
We had first seen Souled Out at our friends wedding and LOVED them. 2 years later and they did not disappoint at all!! All of our guests kept asking us who the band was and giving them compliments.
Dave is fast to reply and flexible. Always quick to answer questions and extremely easy to work with. We had so much fun and honestly Souled Out is the reason for it. We love yall so much! I want to have another party just to have yall play again!
Souled Out was so much fun to have as our wedding band! The music they played kept everyone on their feet having fun. We especially loved how they interacted with the crowd! Two weeks later and everyone is still raving about how great they were! They made everything I planned come to life, especially surprising my husband by playing “Can’t Help Falling in Love” for our last private dance. It was so romantic.
Our wedding last weekend was the first big event for most of our family and friends since the COVID-19 pandemic began. Once Phase 2 was announced, expectations for a good time were high and Souled Out delivered! What makes Souled Out so special is not only their talent, but their genuine love for what they do. Thank you so much for bringing the party and making our wedding a fun, happy occasion!
Wow! This past Saturday’s wedding was absolutely perfect! We cannot thank you enough for your professionalism and sharing your talent. The entertainment is such an important component to a party or wedding reception and in my opinion the success is determined by whether the guests had a fun and memorable night. Since our dance floor was always full - I'd say it was a fun and memorable night. Claire and Guy had so much fun and could not stop talking about it the next day! Your group is very talented and my personal favorite is those horns! We love the way you interact and read your crowd. Your group did just as you said - Souled Out brought the party! I'm so glad we had the opportunity for a repeat booking.
I'd also like to thank you so much for providing your services in a time of great uncertainty of the unknown risk. The dedication to your craft and the commitment to your brides is immeasurable.
They were absolutely amazing to work with. I am still getting compliments on our band from our wedding! Everyone loved them and I couldn't have imagined a better band.
What a wedding night to remember! Souled Out played for our daughters wedding and they kept the dance floor active for the entire night. They were energetic and kept the crowd involved while on the stage and as they played in the crowd. Thank you allowing the groom to sing to his bride and for making this a memorable night 🎤🎷🎺🎸🥂
Souled Out was amazing!!! They kept everyone on the dance floor and were so interactive! Everyone loved them! They really made our reception everything we wanted it to be and more!
If you want a band for your wedding reception that will be dependable, flexible, and give a jamming performance, Souled Out is the right choice. We LOVED their show! They are not inexpensive, but are totally worth the price.
Where do I even start!?!
BEST BAND EVER!! I never had any doubt that it wouldn’t be awesome, but you guys exceeded any expectations! We didn’t want it to end!
I knew no matter what would happen, you guys would bring the party. From the second line entrance to the last song of the night everyone was singing and dancing! I will forever be fan and will be recommending y’all to anyone. We can’t thank y’all enough for making our night more than perfect. Y’all will Forever be part of our family! Can’t wait to hear y’all play again soon!
Souled Out was absolutely AMAZING! The dance floor was packed from the beginning to the very end! All of our friends and family danced All. Night. Long. thanks to Souled Out. We had friends and family members talking about our reception even weeks after our wedding! The manager is very easy to get in touch with and so personal on the phone, which helped ease a lot of wedding planning stressors. During the reception, he found me on the dance floor to check in and I respected that so much. He really cares about what is important to the couple. We told him from the beginning that we love a good party and love when bands interact with the crowds, and they did just that! This band is truly all around amazing! What really topped off the night was when my father came up to dance with me and he raved about how our reception/the band was the most fun he has ever had. You should just go ahead and book Souled Out before you even get engaged because you don't need question who you want bring the party for you and your guests on your big day.
Souled Out was such a hit!! they played exceptional music and kept everyone on the dance floor. I could not have asked for a better entertainer. after the wedding, I received so many comments from wedding guests asking about the band and other particulars.
Response from the Vendor on 10/07/2019
Thanks Nick! But two stars???
Souled Out was the BEST! From the first song to the last they brought the same amazing energy throughout the night. We received so many compliments on our band. Especially the sing off at the end of the night. Thank you for making our reception so much fun!
Souled Out was AMAZING!! I knew from the moment I started wedding planning they were the band I wanted. In fact, they were the first people I contacted to make sure I had them at my wedding! They did not disappoint!!!! They bring so much energy, and they created the atmosphere we wanted for our reception. The band members get the crowd dancing, and the musicians’ LOVE for there craft shows! I can’t say enough great things about them! I received so many compliments! Do not hesitate to book them for your event!!
Souled Out is simply the best! Right from the start, they set the tone for what turned out to be the most fun and amazing night of our lives. Their playlist was great and the band was even better. The dance floor was packed all night, and they even performed our first dance song for us. Everyone's first remark to us during and after the wedding was "Who's the band? They are incredible." I can't recommend Souled Out enough. They were the first call I made after getting engaged and you won't regret doing the same! Our special night would not have been the same without them.
Our wedding day was booked strictly on the availability of Souled Out. We had the absolute best time listening and dancing with all of our friends and family! Souled Out engages the crowd and makes sure everyone is on their feet dancing. Trust and believe your feet will be hurting the day after! Yo dogs gunna be barkin’!
These guys absolutley MADE our wedding night! Great music, great show, so much fun. They were so willing to work with every request we may have had and wanted to make sure we were happy at all times. Best decision we could have made. 10/10 recommend!
I received so many compliments!
My husband and I are both musicians. Souled Out is an incredible band and I highly recommend them! Easy to work with and so much fun! Great energy.
As the Mother of the Bride you want your daughter’s wedding to be memorable, beautiful and fun. The minute I walked into the reception and heard Souled Out playing I knew that this was going to be a fun party! Souled Out was at all times professional and entertaining. Souled Out picked up on the vibe of the crowd and ran with it. NO ONE could be bored at that reception, you were either up on your feet dancing or sitting down(not many) being thoroughly entertained. Bravo Souled Out!
Thank you and your group for the outstanding performance at my daughter's wedding Friday night! Souled Out was the best wedding band I have ever heard. Everyone at the reception was very impressed. My wife and I have said for years that what makes a great night is a great band, a top shelf bar, good food and a nice venue. We had all of these but particularly Souled Out was not just good but OUTSTANDING!
Could not be more appreciative of such a wonderful group. Exactly like everyone says in all their reviews, BOOK them!!!! All my husband and I wanted was a massive dance party and it's exactly what we got. We had the TIME OF OUR LIVES!!!!! Every single guest had all told us the exact same thing "this is the best wedding band I have ever heard!" Outside of their pure talent and awesomeness, they respond to emails, and phone calls almost immediately, so you never have to worry. Our guests want us to throw an anniversary party every year because they had so much fun.
Love love love love LOVE this band!!!!!
Oh baby you made my dreams come true!!!
5 out of 5 stars! They played for our wedding and were phenomenal! Can’t wait to go listen to them again! Would highly recommend them! Not only do they sound amazing but they are great entertainers as well!
This band knows how to get a crowd started, going, and remain on the dance floor! If ever we need a band for another event, they will be my 'go-to' band, hands down! Highly recommended.
Souled Out was the best band I have ever seen play at a wedding, and I have been to a lot of weddings. From the song selection, to the environment they create, to their big-time affordability, they truly bring the PERFECT party. People pay twice as much for bands that should not even be in the same conversation as Souled Out. My wife and I couldn’t have been more pleased. All of our guests said the exact same thing. I’ve already had 2 friends book them for their upcoming weddings. I seriously wish we could do it all over again. What a night. Thank you to Dave and the entire Souled Out krewe! Y’all gave us the best night ever. It was FLAWLESS.
Wish I could give more than 5 stars. After doing some research and watching videos of local bands, I was set on Souled Out. The range of songs played kept everyone on the dance floor the entire night. We had so much fun with them and I received tons of compliments throughout the night. They even went above and beyond to make sure to play my favorite song and make it special for us.
We booked this band a year and a half in advance for good reason. We wanted our out of town guests (which was the majority) to get the "true NOLA" celebration for our destination wedding and wanted our special day to be memorable. Souled Out definitely played a BIG part in that as our guests could not stop raving how spectacular our band was. We also hired a second line that did not show up and members of the Souled Out band saved the day by filling in at the LAST SECOND! Dave, the manager was very easy and kind to work with. Not only is the band EXTREMELY talented, but they are EXTREMELY professional. They not only perform music, they interact with the guests as they play. They are easy to get in contact with and also can accommodate your music requests. Look no further. They are WELL WORTH the bang for your buck.
Souled Out was amazing! I highly recommend them for any wedding. They learned the first dance song, the father/daughter dance song, and the son/mother dance song for no extra charge!
I listened to people all night tell me what I already knew...which is Souled Out is the best wedding band they have ever seen! Thank y’all so much for making our special day better than we could have imagined. We wanted y’all to play for 3 more hours! Choosing Souled Out was the easiest wedding decision I made. Keep doing y’all and enjoying every minute!
Souled Out is the best!!!! They got the party started and everyone had the best time. They were so easy to work with and I would recommend them to anyone and everyone. I'm already thinking about the next event I can book them for!
WOW! Souled Out, you made our wedding reception an absolute dream come true!!! We knew the minute we heard y'all play at Martinis, our wedding reception was going to be so much fun. Our guests were coming up to us the entire night saying how much fun the band was and everyone started chanting "10 more songs!" at the end of the night!! Book Souled Out and I promise you will not be disappointed!
I have had the pleasure of working with Souled Out both professionally as well as getting to experience them first hand at my own wedding. You can believe every word that you have heard about them. They truly do bring the party to your event. I have had friends tell me time and time again how amazed they were about how many people were on the dance floor at my wedding. If you need a wedding band for your event hands down pick Souled Out, but pick them early their dates go fast!
Souled Out was my first choice to play at my wedding and I'm so thankful that they were available. The entire band exceeded my expectations in every way possible. Dave was so friendly from the first time that I talked to him and the band even coordinated their breaks with our day of timeline. My guests are still talking about how much fun this band was and my only regret is that we didn't have four more hours to continue the party!
My husband and I first saw Souled Out perform on our first date and then again at a friend's wedding. I knew after that first time that I had to have them at my wedding whenever that would be. Despite my superstitious beliefs we ended up chosing Friday the 13th of April because it was the only day in April that I could line up the church, band, and venue. I told everyone to bring their dancing shoes and they all said that was by far the best wedding band they've seen EVER!!! Great group of guys to work with. They made it super easy and did everything I asked! The reception was a HIT thanks to these guys and of course my wedding coordinator! #SouledOutSuperFans #HappyBride&Groom
We were told about Souled Out a year ago by our Wedding Coordinator and found out that they were playing at a club near us so we had to check them out. They looked entertaining with the horns and all so we said lets book them. David was fantastic, easy to work with and quick to answer any concerns of ours. Well last night Souled Out played for my daughters reception and they were amazing! Our guest loved them! I heard from so many guest, even the ones that do not dance, how much they were enjoying the band. The energy was phenomenal and the dance floor was packed all night!!! When the time came to say good night no one was ready to leave. Thank You for making their night, a night they will never forget!
Souled out was amazing! We never wanted the night to end. My daughter and her new husband had the time of their lives. So many asked about the band. We had a wonderful time and I thank yall for making my daughter's night amazing!
We had Souled Out play at our wedding reception in New Orleans. They were AMAZING. The band is so much fun with so much energy!! My husband and I had and all of our guests had an absolute blast!!
Where do I begin... These guys are awesome ! From the day I picked up the phone to book them til the night of my wedding they went above and beyond. David Mouton you will always hold a special spot in my heart for what you did to make my dream come true, I cannot " Thank you all enough. My friends and family are still talking about our wedding. But mostly sharing our 12 year story was by far the Best !!! See you in February 2019 at the Mardi Gras Ball... one of many I hope.
"Souled Out was so fantastic! They put on a great show that made our reception so much fun. David was always quick to respond with any questions we had and work with us on some special requests we had. We would definitely recommend Souled Out for any reception. It will be a blast!"

From the day I picked up the phone to book them until the night of my wedding they went above and beyond. @dvmouton you will always hold a special spot in my heart for what you did to make my dream come true, I cannot thank you all enough. My friends and family are still talking about our wedding. But mostly for sharing our 12 year story was by far the best! - Marla, recent bride #SouledOutLA #wearetheparty #CouplesChoice2018
Souled Out played for our two daughters’ weddings. One church, more formal wedding. This past weekend they played for our daughter’s wedding at the beach. This band was such a fun part of both. We got so many compliments on them. They are not your typical band, they entertain, play the crowd, and most importantly...they play IN the crowd. They were able to get everyone on the dance floor and keep them there!!
If you are looking for the best wedding band, do not wait. Book them NOW!! With love and much gratitude!

Souled Out Brings. The. Party. I first saw them play a friend's wedding before I was even engaged and knew that I wanted them to be at ours! They play fun music that appealed to our guests of all ages and made my dream of people not leaving the dance floor all night a reality. Dave was super easy and professional to work with from booking all the way up until the wedding. If you want as many compliments on how great your wedding band is as we did, HIRE SOULED OUT!
Souled Out is the BEST wedding band in the New Orleans area. As a former competitive dancer and dance teacher, it was important for me to find a band that was a performance band - one that is entertaining, lively, and are true performers. I wanted a band that would get everyone on their feet and make sure they danced the night away - and our dance floor was full of people dancing the entire evening. Souled Out was everything I could have wanted in a band and more!
The entire night (and multiple times since the wedding) I was told by my guests that they were the best band people had ever heard at a wedding. Our guests continue to tell me how wonderful of a time they had at our wedding and I know it is because of how Souled Out kept the party going! Jared, Dave, and the guys of Souled Out definitely helped make sure I had the wedding of my dreams.
Dave was great to deal with throughout the entire planning process. He was always quick to respond to my questions and was easy to get along with.
Thank you to Souled Out for making this bride incredibly happy!!!! I will continue to recommend Souled Out to anyone and everyone!
The guys of Souled Out were absolutely amazing! They are extremely talented & entertaining & kept the party going from start to finish. We got married 4 months ago & our family & friends are still commenting on what a fun time they had. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND considering them for your wedding!
Souled Out was amazing at my NYE reception! They were so much fun! So many wedding guests have come up to me saying how great they were! They really made the night memorable! We couldn't have been happier!
Most entertaining band, and full of energy!! Great song playlist-- The band goes out around the reception and plays all the horns and instruments and really gets the reception on the dance floor! Every one talked about how awesome the band was...
We love love love this band! My brother had this band for his wedding and we had a blast so we knew who we wanted to play for us from day 1. Many of our families and friends have also hired Souled Out for their weddings and they really know how to get everyone dancing and having fun.
The band is very interactive and knows how to have a good time. I have wonderful photos of the brass members mixed in with our guests and everyone looks so happy. Great band!
amazing!!! They made our reception a blast
