Hello,
I recently celebrated my wedding at Loews Portofino Bay Resort and had the pleasure of working with the Z Street Band. The evening was magical and everything was absolutely PERFECT. Mark was wonderful to work with and they set the tone wonderfully for the evening. I booked cocktail hour with their saxophone player which was a fantastic extra when the guests arrived and settled in. When my new husband and I arrived to the reception area, they introduced us perfectly and we went right into the first dance. My parents were celebrating a 40th wedding anniversary and my husbands were celebrating 50 years. We asked the band to please invite our parents to join us on the dance floor in honor of their anniversaries. Mark inviting them to join us clearly and quickly and it was an amazing dedication. The music was very mellow and romantic during dinner which is exactly what I wanted. They changed the tempo as the guests began moving around the reception area and indulging in cocktails. The evening moved to a more fun rhythm as the time progressed. With each hour, the band really seemed to read the mood of the crowd and changed the music tempo to match each temperament. At the end of the evening, all the guests started screaming “one more song, one more song,” and the band gave us exactly what we asked for. During the speeches, they professional and invited guests up gracefully. We had an ice-cream station and photo booth…both of which were mentioned to guests as “open” from the band…they really alerted everyone to what was going on in reception area…..which was awesome.
Our departure was through fireworks and the band bowed out gracefully. They also wore tuxes and Kathy was GORGEOUS in her gown which fit right in with my décor as it was black tie event.
If I could do it all over again, I would literally not change one thing about working with the Z Street Band. They made the evening a success and I could not recommend them enough. INCREDIBLE!!!
