    Amazing! Your event will be transformed!

    This truly set our wedding a part from several others I have attended and also stood in (15 to date!) Who wants a dj….plug in a smart phone for that. What we got…an interactive performance. Professional from beginning to end…behind the scenes and during the wedding these pros will make your night the experience of a lifetime with the love of your life! Our MC was taken care of and made the night run smooth! Then into to dancing…where the true memories were made. EVERYONE raves about the band all night! EVEN AUNT PHYLLIS DANCED! Everyone will want to dancing and have fun from 8-85 they play it all! Easy to work with, can handle and accommodate all your needs, and talent to knock the socks off of AUNT PHYLLIS. You have found it…trust me!

    Wedding Band

    Spoken 4 was the band we hired for my son’s wedding in Milwaukee, WI. The wedding was at the Pilot House at Discovery World on 10/21/23. The band was outstanding! My son-in-law said that he never sat down the whole night! Many of our guests asked me who the band was because they had so much fun! The band played non-stop and played contemporary, fun music the entire night. They were even able to read the crowd and sprinkle Latin Music in.( My son-in-law is from Colombia) It truly was the party feeling we were looking for. I would recommend Spoken 4 enthusiastically!

    Thank you so very much for choosing Spoken Four to celebrate your big day. We had so much fun with your guests. It was truly an honor to provide the soundtrack for such a big life moment.

    Phenomenal

    All I can say is wow! I knew Maggie Speaks would be good but that was incredible. I had people coming up to me all night telling me how phenomenal the band was and that dance floor was packed from start to finish. Nicole and team made it truly special.

    Final Say-Great Band!

    First of all, if you are on the fence about hiring a band or DJ or trying to find the right band, please let me help you with your decision: HIRE FINAL SAY! These guys will blow you away! From the start, Robby the band leader, was the consummate professional. He was very attentive and listened intently to our concerns. We have a little bit of an older crowd and we were nervous that no one would be out on the dance floor. My adult kids were also encouraging us to get a DJ instead of hiring a live band. But we knew better. We had a few zoom calls with Robby and we relayed our concerns and he was so calm and patient and we were able to put all our trust in him.

    Fast forward to the wedding night…first of all, he was an EXCELLENT emcee. He brought the energy and even had to ad lib a bit since one of our speakers was a a tad late. He announced our bridal party (our kids) with enthusiasm and announced us with the energy that we had hoped for. But the best part was the party. We had planned for the band to start right after our first dance. Our first dance song was a bit on the long side so we had informed him that it was ok to fade it and then get everyone dancing. His segue was ridiculous! He sang the chorus himself as the song faded and then immediately broke into the first dance song inciting excitement from the crowd. The crowd immediately moved to the dance floor and never left. Everyone danced the entire night. The line of the night was from my husband who said, “These guys are relentless!” So true! Every song was better than the last and they would not let up. They sang, danced and interacted with the bride and groom and kept things entertaining and playful. We STILL get comments from our friends and family about how they were the best and most fun band they have ever seen. I also wanted to add that not only did they sing a little bit of the old stuff (blues, funk etc), they mixed in the newer pop songs also and got my kids and the younger crowd hyped. The next day my kids said to me, “We were wrong Mom, you were right. The band was a way better idea than a DJ! That was one of the best nights of our lives!” I can’t say it enough, these guys were great. The only way I can repay them for giving us such a memorable performance and giving us such a meaningful night, is to spread the word. These guys work hard and they are super fun and talented. Hire them and hope that they are available on your wedding date!!!!

    Maggie Speaks's reply:

    Cherrie! Thanks so much for trusting Final Say with the big day! We were so honored to have worked with you. Don't be a stranger and come see us at one of our public shows!

    Unforgettable Wedding Band: Final Say and the Incredible Robby

    Final Say, led by the dynamic Robby, brought an electrifying energy to our wedding day. As our contact, bandleader, MC, and singer, Robby's passion and talent shone through every moment. The crowd loved their performance, and they even learned "Come Sail Away" for our final song, making it a magical ending to an unforgettable night. Highly recommended for an incredible wedding experience!

    Maggie Speaks's reply:

    Neil, Thanks so much for having Final Say on your wedding day! We were so honored to have been the band on the big day!

    Amazing Experience

    We had Maggie Speaks at our wedding on July 1st, 2023 at the Chicago History Museum and they were absolutely incredible. They learned our first dance song just for us (Lover by Taylor Swift) and played it perfectly. They kept the dance floor lit for the entire night. They were especially good at doing 90's and 2000's punk rock. Multiple people at the end of the wedding came up to me and my wife and told us they were the best band they've ever seen at a wedding. They were worth every penny and I can't recommend them highly enough.

    Maggie Speaks's reply:

    Ryan, we had such a blast playing for you. We haven't played a lot of those songs in years, so it was great to dust them off and your friends loved them for sure! Come see us at one of our public shows again soon!

    50th Anniversary Celebration with Final Say

    My husband of 50 years and I celebrated our anniversary in La Crosse, Wisconsin on June 17, 2023. We had experienced Final Say at our son's wedding 6 years before and just had to bring them to Wisconsin for our celebration. Absolutely no one had ever experienced a night quite like this. They don't just play music ... they personalize the night, they choreographed every move, they blow the roof off, and even folks that are not generally dancers just cannot resist. From young kids to us old people, there was something for everyone. They were awesome to plan and conspire with to make sure everything went off as hoped and the schedule was down to the minute. In 50 years, when we do this again, we will definitely bring Robby and Final Say back to where our love story began. Pure Gold!!!

    Final Say was the best party ever!!

    Finding a wedding band can be so stressful because that is the entire party! If you are unsure who to book, STOP RIGHT NOW and book Final Say.

    While the wedding day can be a blur, I remember having the best time ever on the dance floor. The band was so engaging and fun to dance with- along with being just PURE talent.

    Robby is super helpful leading up to the wedding to great a vibe for what you want on your big day. This allows the band to really play to your guests to make sure they all have the best time. He was also an amazing MC and ensured the speeches, entrance, ext when very smoothly.

    I cannot say enough great things about this band, and neither can my guests who cannot stop raving about how much fun they had on the dance floor.

    Do not hesitate to book Final Say- you will not regret it when you are having the best night ever!!

    Amazing Band- Super Professional!

    We are an award winning wedding planning company and we worked with Spoken Four for one of our couples and they were amazing. They got everyone on the dance floor and the team was very professional! We would highly recommend them for any couple who is looking for a memorable evening! Love them!

    The only band you should hire!!

    Can't say enough good things about Dave and Magnificent Events!!! He and the band played our wedding recently; they not only got what we wanted exactly right, but blew our minds with their musicianship and versatility!! To boot, they took care of all logistics, equipment rental, transportation, lodging, etc., which was a huge help.Our friends can't stop talking about how great they were (this includes music professionals) and what an amazing party it was because of them. Also, some of the nicest people who were so lovely to be around. Run, don't walk!!

    Maggie Speaks's reply:

    Jen,

    We can't thank you and Rob enough for trusting us with your event. We had a blast and can't wait to see you guys at a future show!

    Outstanding

    Final Say is truly phenomenal. Robby and his team of talented musicians absolutely knocked it out of the park with their performance. Our guests (and my husband and I) are still talking about how amazing their vocals were, how smooth their transitions were, and how fun their stage presence was. I cannot recommend Final Say enough, the are true musicians and know how to bring the heat to the dance floor. Thanks for making our wedding so beyond special!

    AMAZING band -- our wedding wouldn't have been the same without them!

    Maggie Speaks is absolutely incredible!! Dave and his team were great to work with from the very beginning - kind, responsive, and reliable. They came up with an amazing setlist and really made an effort to understand my husband and me and the vibe we were trying to create at our wedding. It worked - our guests were obsessed with the band and the dance floor was full all night long! If you are planning a wedding in Arizona, look no further and book Maggie Speaks! Thank you, Dave!

    Maggie Speaks's reply:

    Julia, Thanks so much to you and Sam for having us at your wedding. It was so awesome to meet and entertain your family and friends. Thanks for jumping in on the first dance moment "You'll Be In My Heart"...I love that you told us about how you love to sing that part together on our music call and then we made it happen! You are the best!

    Amazing Experience with Final Say

    Final Say was everything we could have asked for in a wedding band and more! They took the time to meet with us prior to the wedding to make sure they understood what we were looking and truly delivered. They came prepared, kept the crowd engaged the entire time and were exceptionally talented. At the end everyone in attendance wanted more!

    Griffin C. we were honored to play your wedding! Thank you for sharing your special day and such kind words.

    Talk of The Town Big Band- Wonderful!

    There are not enough adjectives to describe how wonderful the band, show and lead singer Robby were. It exceeded my wildest imagination. The thing that especially jumped out to me is they knew exactly the right song to play and when to play it. Was the crowd feeling Backstreet Boys? Did it want Motown? How about a mash-up? It kept the energy thrumming the entire night.

    And the crowd responded accordingly. The dance floor was never empty. In fact, I've never been to an event where there almost isn't enough room for all the people who want to dance.

    Their bandleader Robby was the man at the middle of it all with slick dance moves and an effervescent spirit. He was easy, accessible and really made me trust him from our very first phone call.

    THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

    The BEST wedding band in Chicago

    I had wanted Final Say to play at our wedding for YEARS, ever since my now husband and I started dating. When I reached out to the band leader Robby with our proposed date, he immediately got the ball rolling. He and the entire team (including management) are so friendly and easy to work with, but they are also consummate professionals. Robby was easy to get in touch with anytime with any questions or concerns that I had leading up to the big day. You have input as to what you would like the band to play off of their set list, but they will also read the crowd and adjust the set as needed during your event.

    Now in terms of the band itself, all I can say is THANK YOU. Having live music was so important to us as my husband and I are musicians, and we could not have asked for a better wedding band to help us celebrate. The dance floor wasn't empty for one second and my only regret is that the venue wasn't open longer so that they could have played all night long! All of our guests commented on how amazing Final Say was and that our wedding was one of the best parties they've ever attended. They have the best, most positive energy, and they are all such talented musicians. I would recommend Final Say for your wedding or any special event. Thank you again to Robby and to the whole band!

    Amazing Band!

    When I saw the band perform at a friend's wedding, I knew they were special. We had Maggie Speaks (Enough Said band) perform at our wedding on 8/14/21 in Lake Forest and they knocked it out of the park! I've had multiple guests tell me how great they were. They send through an extensive list of songs for you to choose lists of must haves, nice to haves, and do not plays. They play all different types of music and know how to get the dance floor going. They also have incredible mashups. I would whole-heartedly recommend this band to everyone!

    Maggie Speaks's reply:

    Hi Elizabeth - Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We strive to make every wedding unique and magical and are so happy you enjoyed the music.

    Extremely talented wedding band!

    We hired Spoken Four as our band for our August 2021 wedding at Cafe Brauer and they were truly incredible! Our guests still rave about how talented they were, and we were so happy that the dance floor was packed the whole night. In advance, they send a huge song list that you can mark as must-play, do-not-play, etc. and we were even able to request the first song and last song of the night. My only qualm is that they faded in the recorded music for our first dance, which was a problem since we had very specific choreography, but thankfully we made it work :) So I guess make sure to specify if you don’t want fading in! We also used Magnificent Events to hire the pianist for our ceremony, and he did an excellent job as well. Huge thanks to Michael (the band leader) and his crew for bringing such great energy to our night!

    A Fantastic Experience with Maggie Speaks!

    We recently had the pleasure of having Maggie Speaks 13 piece ensemble for my daughters wedding reception. We couldn't have made a better selection! From the planning, to set-up to a fantastic evening of music, they were professional and wonderful to work with. I can't remember an event that had a dance floor that was as crowded from start to finish, as ours was. We were thrilled with the evening of music and received countless rave reviews from all of our guests. Maggie Speaks is awesome!

    Maggie Speaks's reply:

    Hello Leslie - We are so incredibly happy for Nichole and Paul and were honored to fill the dance floor for their special day! Thank you so much for leaving us such a glowing review.

    Maggie Speaks - Talk of the Town Big Band is simply the best!

    We booked Maggie Speaks Talk of the Town Big Band (14 piece ensemble) as our wedding band and were honored for them to be part of our special day! From the cocktail hour that featured The CoverGirls Violin Show, to the dinner portion of the evening, to the three hours of continuous music on our dance floor, Talk of the Town Big Band kept the energy high all night long. Talk of the Town Big Band is not only incredibly talented, but so unbelievably fun, too! We have never seen a more packed dance floor for all three hours of dancing. To this day, our family and friends just rave about our wedding band and we are so grateful that Talk of the Town Big Band could take part in our wedding day celebration. If you are looking for your wedding band, look no further -- Talk of the Town Big Band is simply the best!!

    We had Enough Said with talk of the town (10 piece band) at our wedding and I am not even sure where to begin with explaining how incredible they were. We have been to A LOT of weddings over the past few years, but I have never experienced this packed of a dance floor the entire night than at our wedding. They read the audience so well and played songs that kept everyone (of all ages and generations) dancing and jumping all night. We have had SO many of guests come up to us since our wedding telling us how they were the greatest band they have ever heard at an event. We are so grateful to Enough Said and will forever recommend them to anyone looking for a band for any event!

    Spoken four - you guys are amazing!

    WOW!! This review is for *SPOKEN FOUR*. This group of musicians is absolutely AMAZING! Domingo and the team are incredibly talented, and really know what they are doing. We saw Spoken Four at a friend's wedding last year, and from that moment we knew we had to have them perform at our wedding. They have SO much energy, the songs they play are hit after hit for every age group, and truly NOBODY leaves the dance floor! The dance floor was absolutely packed, and I just could not believe how much fun it was! Our dinner ran long so our timeline was a bit delayed, and Domingo made the call to play straight through so we didn't miss out on time with the band - THAT IS UNHEARD OF and the customer experience unparalleled! Beyond the music, Domingo and the team are a dream to work with. Domingo held several calls with us leading up to the big day, and he took the time to go through every single detail with us. He walked us through the night, made proper recommendations when we needed them, and was so professional yet made us feel like friends. He took care of everything, created playlists when we needed them during dinner, MC'd the speeches and the entire dinner, and just killed in. We trusted him completely and he delivered! We cannot say enough good things about this group - they are a treasure! 10 out of 10 for SPOKEN FOUR! WE LOVE YOU GUYS!
