Tangled Vine

t talented musicians in Fairfield County. Professional and kind. Band Leader Kevin helped me with the do’s, dont’s and new trends of the wedding world helping me make decisions and taking the reigns when I just couldn’t make anymore. From Andy’s beautiful acustic guitar playing while I walked down the asile to the two piece jazz band in the cocktail hour the start of the night was more than perfect. Thanks to Kevin’s perfect thought out song choices and Lead Singer Chrissy’s amazing vocals the reception was a party where no one left the dance floor. Some guests did not even eat!! Exactly what I was going for. I received complement after complement about TV. The music makes the party and I have witnessed Tangled Vine deliver over and kkover again. I highly recommended them and wish I could do it all over again.

. What a perfect night! Thank you Tangled Vine!

thoughtlessly and rudely for the wedding big event that had been so carefully planned, in great detail, for well over a year - as it was a destination wedding, not local. When TV was hired, it was specified that lead vocalist, Christine Tambakis was to be the only vocalist performing, no substitute ( & this was into the written contract). The band arrived at our location the day before the wedding, more than 24 hours before the wedding. So as can be imagined, we were distraught & disgusted (& infuriated) when Kevin (musician & band leader/manager)approached us a HALF HOUR BEFORE the ceremony was to begin, to announce that Christine 'wasn't going to make it' - offering the lamest, most unprofessional excuses ever, thanks to Christine. The band would not have been hired if Christine wasn't going to available to perform, as Kevin & Christine knew. Totally unacceptable & rude to the max.. Although Kevin is a nice person, he was extremely hard to work with: very non - responsive and hard to reach, with no call backs. The same issue was also reported to us by the Venue's event manager, in writing to us. When the Bridal couple had FINALLY received the band's songlist & made choices and put in their personal requests, all was nicely agreed on. But since the band showed up to something as important as a formal event -for a formal destination wedding - with an unknown "substitute" vocalist, she apparently knew none of the songs that were supposed to be played. They sounded terrible- the disappointment had the Bride in tears. This was not some local bar scene, where a substitute can sometimes be acceptable. This was a prepaid-for event with a contract. This could not have been handled worst, with Christine's lack of respect for my family and by overbooking her schedule, AFTER having made a definite commitment to us, as her prior commitment, which should have superseded any other music event that came up later on her 'oh so busy schedule'. So unreliable. The lack of respect for a couple's wedding on Christine's part was unacceptable and uncool. And not being informed ahead of her likely 'no-show' status gave us no option or choice to hire a different band. We accommodated them extremely well, and this is how we were treated, like it was a last minute gig put into their schedules. Cannot express how disappointed & disgusted we all were/are.

the planning process and on our big day. Tangled Vine is made up up professional full time musicians; they have been together for a long time and play multiple shows every week. I loved that they didn't have the manufactured feel that I've seen at some other weddings that used a big wedding music company. We got so many compliments on them during the wedding and the day after. They played a perfect mix of classic rock, classic wedding songs and new pop music. If you are getting married in the CT, NYC, or Westchester area, I HIGHLY recommend reaching out to them and going to one of their weekly shows.
