The Big House Band

use Band!!

ails to assist with making a set list for our wedding. The music was absolutely perfect for our guests, covering all genres for all ages, even down to the music played during their set breaks. The band was professional, and an all around joy. We had requested two songs for our first dance to be a mash-up, which they cut seamlessly. They even learned Mr. Brightside at our request and performed it as their last song, and our guests are still talking about how much fun they had!

nd Big House brought it! Guests raved about their talent and music selection.

nd is second to none. By far they are the best wedding band I’ve seen. They also know how to keep the dance floor packed. My wife and I have gotten complements on them from guests in their 20’s to guests in their 80’s. The song variety is amazing and their energy is unmatched. I cannot praise them enough. I strongly recommend them to anyone that wants a great band for their wedding. You will not be disappointed.

lly knows how to keep the party going all night! We first saw the band down the shore and knew immediately we had to hire them! From the beginning, the management team made planning easy and worked with us as we postponed our wedding due to COVID. Jimi was great to work with picking our songs and they played our first song so perfectly someone thought it was the original track! If you want to throw an amazing party —look no further - you have found your wedding band!

alled it “Panic Control”. I was starting to fret and panic a week before the wedding, thinking I didn’t plan well but everyone involved on the band’s end was extremely calming and accommodating. Jimi, the band leader even offered his personal cell number to text or call with any questions or concerns I had. When we connected via phone call and I spoke with him, it gave me such a wonderful sense of comfort and reassured me that he had it all under control. It truly was such a nice conversation and we had a connection with his love of the band that my late sister loved as well. I had sent a very specific list of songs to be played thirty minutes before the ceremony so Jimi prerecorded those songs and played them for the guests as they were arriving and getting seated. Then the instrumental for the processional and also sound and an amp and microphone for my daughter and stepson for the number they played as my son walked me down the aisle. It was so so special!!! The band played lovely music for cocktail hour and dinner. And Jimi’s emcee skills are top notch! My guests commented on his smooth and awesome voice. As each of our members of the bridal party were announced, we all had a clip of a specific song and a little “number” to get the party started. The Big House Band also performed our song for our first dance. They were just phenomenal!!! This band does not disappoint!!! Thank you so much Big House! ☺️

ted on how amazing they sounded and how fun it was.

more seamless process. Thank you all for making our night even more perfect than we had imagined. Talk about TALENTED! Book this band if you want have the most amazing time at your reception.

d was kind enough to give us one more. They arrived on time, kept everyone dancing all night, and were full of charisma and talent. They also accommodated several of our last minute changes. The only complaint we had regarded the music that was played while the band was on break. The songs kept stopping suddenly about 30 seconds before they were finished. It would have been better if they let each song finish completely or if they had some sort of transition like a DJ would.

hem!

ancing all night long.

years together, and it shows! Their catalogue of music far surpassed other bands we met with - who were twice the cost. We loved being able to work directly with Jimi and planning was a breeze. They handled cocktail hour acoustic music, which was beautiful, and also served as the MC for the night. They learned a few songs for us, which made the reception even more special. You're crazy to book anyone else. Thank you Jimi + BHB!

helpful. While we truly enjoyed having the band play at our wedding, communication was a challenge at times. The easiest way to communicate for me during wedding planning was via email. There were times when my emails weren't answered for 4-5 days (which is fine leading up to the wedding but not when the wedding was a week away) and other times where I didn't receive a response at all. We had a miscommunication a few days before our wedding and I had to call the band's manager to make sure everything was in order. Other than some communication issues, the band was fantastic!

modating and friendly! Our wedding was at Omni Bedford Springs which was quite a drive for the band and we were SO thankful! My husband first reached out via email and was able to book with the manager. He was then given Jimi's email and phone number. Unfortunately email is not the best form of communication because the band is truly so busy - so we often called or texted Jimi which worked great for us! I first spoke to Jimi via a phone call about setting up a surprise for my husband the night of the wedding! He was super accommodating!!! He even ended up having a surprise set up with my husband where him and his groomsmen did a dance and accommodated their request as well! The band was able to learn the song we picked for our first dance and did a great job learning our music style in order for us and our guests to enjoy the night! The Big House Band was also able to provide a keyboardist for our ceremony and cocktail hour which was HUGE for us so we didn't have to work with another vendor. Thank you, thank you, thank you Jimi & the rest of the Big House band for making our night SO special! We cannot thank you enough!!

them live in Philly, we knew we needed to have them as our wedding band. From the first time we spoke with Jimi, he made us feel at ease and worry free. The Big House Band sounded fantastic and had everyone of all ages on their feet dancing all night. They played the perfect variety of songs and played them flawlessly. They even let my husband come up and sing Wagon Wheel with them at the end of the night. They truly helped make our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception perfect. We can't wait to see them again soon.

some pretty specific and non-traditional requests for the band, and they accommodated every one of them. It has been 5 months since our wedding and people are still telling us how much they loved the band. Jimi did a great job as emcee. Our family loves to dance and they kept everyone out on the dance floor the whole night. The band even went out of their way to learn an extra song to surprise the bride! We cannot say enough positive things about the band and would highly recommend them!

ntacted the manager about hiring them for our December wedding. The entire band is very friendly and personable. Their skills are astounding and memorable. 5 months later, everyone is still talking about how great the band was, even clearing our busy schedule when they are playing a local venue. Two words....HIRE THEM!!

ly made our wedding! They brought amazing energy throughout the entire evening. Their set list was spot on - crowd pleaser after crowd pleaser that kept the dance floor packed from start to finish. Jimi + team were also extremely flexible with a few special requests (both space constraints/logistics and unique song requests) and supported us during all aspects of the wedding (mics for ceremony, music for cocktail hour, dinner and reception). Would recommend them over and over again!

based only on their amazing reviews and on YouTube videos--hint book fast, their schedule fills up fast. From the start, Jimi (band leader, voice of an angel) confirmed we made the right choice. Months after we booked, we saw the band at the Windrift--they were, as reviewed, amazing--and Jimi spent over an hour after the show to meet us, to get some insight on what we wanted at our wedding, and to get to know US as a couple. From there, Jimi followed up regularly to check in and to ensure the band got everything right for our big day. And boy did they. They played our first dance live--Can't Take My Eyes Off You (another hint, have them play your first dance song, better than any recording), and kept our reception rocking all night with music that kept every guest happy and dancing. On our request, they even played Scenes From An Italian Restaurant (a song about divorce) because 1) it is a favorite of mine and 2) Jimi can PLAY the sax...not just play....really PLAY. And its not just Jimi, the whole band is incredibly talented. Like SERIOUSLY talented. Stephanie and DaNica can legitimately bring the house down, guitarist Jeff and bassist Tim can simply shred, Dave's keys wowed everyone from ceremony music to reception, and Bob kills the drums. At the end of the night, the band closed the reception to bring us up on stage to sing Living on a Prayer. It was a very special moment for my wife and I to look out over our guests and see them singing along with us. Certainly something we will never forget and something we owe to the Band. To this day, almost 4 months later, our guests still rave about Big House Band. We do too. We still see them every month, we stay the whole time, dance like its our wedding again, and their show never gets old. And, beyond all of this, the Band is just full of truly fun and kind people who are devoted to making your night one you will never forget. Do yourself a favor, book them now, see them later, love them forever. You will thank yourself for it, your guests will thank you for it, the Band will thank you for it, and you will never forget the night Big House rocked your wedding.

le I have ever met. From song selection to the actual affair, Jimi will assist you with anything you may need. No need to look elsewhere if you are on this page stop the shop and reach out. They will make your memorable day that much better.

easonable for how fantastic they are and the vocals are phenomenal. We wish we could hear Jimi sing our first dance song again as it was perfect! We went and listened to the band down the shore before booking and knew immediately they were the right choice for our wedding. The band provides such a great assortment of songs that got ALL of our wedding guests on the floor at some point during the night. We are still getting complements on how much fun our guests had at our wedding and they all attributed that to the amazing band! They did such a great job of reading the crowd throughout the night and even ended the night with inviting my husband and I on stage for the final song and our guests loved it! I would highly recommend the Big House Band if you want to be dancing the night away with all of your guests! We cannot thank the Big House Band enough for making our wedding reception so memorable for us and our guests!

nce floor all night and Jimi read the room perfectly!!! People are STILL TALKING about how much fun they had dancing to the Big House Band!! I cannot recommend Jimi highly enough!!!!

g the event and they definitely kept our guests on the dance floor all night. People of our ages, from our friend to our parents and even grandparents were out on the dance floor as they played music everyone enjoyed. After the wedding, the number one comment we received was how awesome the band was. We definitely recommend them!

and concerns. We had seen the band live once before our wedding, but they played even better than we ever could have imagined. Thank you to the big house band for making our wedding so special and a great time!

ring them play at various bars through the years. I honestly never thought I'd hire a band for my wedding, but I am soooooo glad we did! They were super easy to work with, and very reasonably priced. All of our guests have been telling me what an awesome time they had at the wedding and how much they loved the music! We have had many people ask if we can do it all over again even! Thank you Big House for making our perfect day even more amazing than we could have ever imagined. I highly recommend booking the Big House Band for your event!! They will, without a doubt, have every guest up on the dance floor!!

way by how good they were. The wedding staff even said they were the best band they had ever had at their venue. Jimi and the band even learned 3 songs that they did not have in their expansive repertoire. The dance floor was jammed all night. They were very easy to work with and total professionals. They are very reasonably priced too. Thanks again to Jimi and the band for such a great time. Book them you will not regret it. Phil & Yvonne

ey were one of the best wedding bands they had ever seen. The range and mix of music kept everyone on the dance floor all afternoon. The talent is amazing, you won't be disappointed. Do yourself a favor and hire The Big House Band so that you don't have to worry about a thing, as you know you and your guests will be in great hands!

ow to get the crowd out of their seats, and everyone commented on how they did not stop dancing until the end of the night. Jimi is so easy to work with, and made the music one of the least stressful parts of wedding planning. We loved the band so much we followed them to Avalon to hear them again for our 1 week anniversary! Thank you so much to the band for making our wedding so incredibly special. We are grateful and cannot wait to come see you play again!!

Jimi is fantastic at getting guests to dance and made our July 4th weekend wedding a blast. The band did a cover of "Shape of You" by Ed Sheeran and my guests went INSANE for it. I mean, this cover sounded as good--if not better--than the original. We didn't want their music to end! Also, myself and my family are generally quite sensitive to overly loud music, and the Big House Band was careful to strike the perfect balance. They really are true professionals. My sister can't wait to hire them for her own wedding!!

nk back on my wedding, some of the top memories are dancing the night away. These artists are professionals and have done SO many events, that it is just second nature for them - they seamlessly pull off a flawless performance and I am so thrilled that I chose them as our wedding band. You will not regret choosing The Big House Band!!

as the men entered. Moments later they gasped as the keyboardist meticulously played the rhythmic sounds of Emeli Sande's "Next to Me" as the bride and her father walked down the aisle. At the reception, our loved ones gathered cheered, danced, and sang-along to beautiful musical renderings of songs ranging from Frank Sinatra to Bruno Mars and everything in-between. A wedding is an event that celebrates the deep and persistent joy that has brought a husband and wife together in love and matrimony. Jimi and The Big House Band ensure that everyone man, woman, and child in the room (or any other venue!) feels that sense of joy and celebration. Jimi read our crowd perfectly in order to select songs on the go and he and the rest of the band perfectly executed each and every one, often with pleasantly surprising personal twists. The instrumentation and vocals were incredible and our family and friends are still talking about and watching videos of the band over a week after our wedding! Besides that, they are just genuinely kind people. We had numerous conversations with Jimi before, during and after the wedding and were always left thinking "He is so nice"! We could not be more pleased with our choice of band. Thank you to Jimi and all of the members of The Big House Band for making our big day even more memorable. We are actively looking for excuses to book you again! You literally rock!

with all of the songs we requested before hand. The band also incorporated many other songs that kept guests of all ages on the dance floor celebrating all night. When we caught up with our wedding guests after the honeymoon, they raved about the band even more than the venue, food, or other entertainment. They did such a wonderful job, and I wouldn't hesitate to book them for your wedding.

how AMAZING they were. We’re big into music and one of the hardest things about a wedding is finding music that’s really appealing to ever generation. When we saw the expansive list of songs that Big House plays we were blow away and knew they were the band we needed. Their ability to read the crowd to see what songs/genres are the biggest hits are spot on. The vocals of all 3 lead singers are beyond compare. The overall musical execution was flawless. And to cap off the most amazing day of our lives, the bad surprised us and called my groom and I up on stage for the last song. We got married at World Café Live at The Queen (a small concert venue) so being up on stage with the band and looking out to see all 200 of our guests still there rocking out until the very end took our breath away! The band crushed it with Bon Jovi – Livin’ on a Prayer for the last song which was the perfect sing along for every generation…and we felt like rock stars! We cannot rave about this band enough – they gained 200 new fans at our wedding and we’re so excited to reminisce about our wedding when we watch them at local shows in the future. If you’re thinking about booking them for your wedding/event, stop thinking and book them now – you will not be disappoint. The Big House Band is guaranteed to make your event one your guests will NEVER forget!

me in mind as we planned our wedding. BHB hosted a showcase event about 10 months before our wedding date where we, and other prospective wedding clients, were able to watch a mini-performance and interact with the band. Immediately we knew that BHB was the perfect fit for our wedding. Leading up to our wedding, we were in direct contact with the band leader Jimi and he was extremely responsive and helped us to outline the perfect musical lineup for our wedding. Jimi went above and beyond in making sure our wedding day was absolutely perfect. He helped ensure everything was set up for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception and we didn’t have to worry at all about the music in the days leading up to the wedding. During the reception, the band was open to suggestions and requests and kept all of our guests dancing for the entire 4 hour reception. With our input, the band played a perfect mix of typical wedding music and current hits as well as a number of mash-ups featuring songs from our high school and college days – truly something for everyone! We were even able to have a few of our more musical family members sing special songs with the band. In the end, the members of the band were extremely friendly and helpful before, during and after our wedding. So many of our guests commented and complimented the band and party atmosphere of our wedding that we would absolutely recommend the Big House Band to anyone planning a wedding! Thanks for making our special day so unforgettable! – Gloria & Melissa

future :)

We would highly recommend The Big House Band for your wedding! They were professional and very easy to work with. Thank you The Big House Band for playing at our wedding and for the memories that will last a lifetime.

hearing the first set, Jimi came down and I introduced myself. We spoke for about 5-10 minutes during their break, and he asked me to pick any song I could think of and if they knew it, he would play it for me. I obscurely went with Your Love by The Outfield (gotta love the 80's). He nailed it, and three minutes later I called my fiancée and told her to sign the contract. Everyone at my wedding (and I am not exaggerating one bit....EVERYONE) loved this band! You would be crazy to pass on them if they are available on your special day, whether it be a wedding or a 50th anniversary party. I will happily give them 5Stars and a standing ovation...!

de our reception so incredibly fun and perfect! In the planning process, we knew we wanted a band at our wedding but we didn't want the traditional "wedding band". We didn't want to pay a small fortune for a 10 or more piece band and we wanted it more to feel like going to a bar to watch our favorite band. We seriously couldn't have made a better choice! When looking at our options, I found that The Big House Band was highly rated and recommended and we went to see them perform at a couple of bars around the area. It only took one listen (we went and saw them at Sugarhouse Casino) and a great conversation with lead singer Jimi to seal the deal that this was our band. In the months leading up to our wedding, we would take our parents and friends to see them at some of their other gigs around the area (Tir-Na-Nog, The Adelphia, even down the shore!) and it got us even more excited to have them at our wedding. In the months, weeks, and days leading up to the wedding, it was great communicating with them and working out the final details. They were able to learn our first dance song for us (Hey Pretty Girl by Kip Moore) and agreed to have my father-in-law play the drums for 2 songs during the reception (a HUGE hit!!). I do want to point out that the song list on their website is definitely not all inclusive of what they can do. Especially when it comes to more of the current hits, their website is probably not updated with all of their current songs because I was so excited that they were able to play more current songs like "Shut Up and Dance", "Happy" and "Raise Your Glass" all during our reception. They definitely got the feel for the crowd early and there wasn't a single song that wasn't perfectly timed and performed throughout the night. I can't wait until the next time we get to go see The Big House Band perform and I would definitely recommend booking them for your wedding!

n how great they were!

leader, was easy to work with. I sent him my song request and the day of the wedding everything was perfect. They learned the few songs we requested. During the reception my dance floor was never empty. They played everyone's favorite songs and many different generations.
