Our wedding was the best night of our lives. Period. There are so many decisions that have to be made in the course of planning a wedding… and booking Heatwave to be our band was the best decision we made!
Your guests *might* remember the foo...d, or the cake, or details of the venue… but they *will* remember the band.
The music was such an important part of every moment of our day. From the ceremony, to cocktail hour, to first dances, and then having a celebration on the dance floor for the rest of the evening… Heatwave created the energy & atmosphere we wanted for every moment of our special day.
1.) They sound amazing. I’m a musician myself… I play piano, guitar, and drums, and have played in several bands. My dad played in a wedding band for 30 years. Myself and my whole family have been around music our entire lives… and these guys sound amazing. Each band member was exceptional, their chemistry as a group was outstanding, and the sound quality was superb.
2.) They can play anything. The song list that they gave us spanned every musical genre from modern hits back to the 50’s. We had them play a mix of old & new, including some demanding special requests... and they nailed every note. The dance floor was full all night, which was exactly what we wanted.
3.) Communication. There’s so much more to hiring a wedding band than just finding a band and booking them. You’ve got decisions about ceremony music, cocktail hour, introductions of the wedding party, first dances, and more… We even had a few special requests. The band was organized, quickly responded to any emails or text messages I sent them, and inspired confidence that they would deliver… and they did!
4.) Attention to details... and to us. Due to weather concerns, we waited until the last moment to make a final decision on indoor versus outdoor set-up. This is a big deal, as a band has to plan staging & equipment set-up. They were remarkably flexible, and gave us all the time we needed to make our decision. They basically planned the set-up for two separate venues and allowed us to make a call at the last minute based on weather. There were so many other vendors pressuring us to make this decision… meanwhile… these guys made it clear that their top priority was to make us happy... and bent over backwards to do so! :D
Do yourself a favor and book Heatwave. Whenever I talk to one of my wedding guests the first thing they say to me is… “Your wedding was so amazing… That band was incredible!”
