Tim and crew were nothing short of fantastic. They had the crowd on the floor all night long and learned a new song for our first dance that was absolutely perfect. Tim was always quick to respond to our emails (and there were many) and was very detail-oriented in ensuring that the day went off without a hitch. Our day would not have been the same without them!

Music was probably the most important thing to me for the wedding. I researched bands the most.From beginning to end they was fantastic. They were quick to answer any and all questions. Negotiated with the band to get all of our music included. The band was phenomonal. They kept everyone dancing ALL night.They were AMAZING! Everyone loved their performance and they were very willing to work with me in planning the reception playlist.Offer great bands and their agents are willing to talk to you and give you advice on what band will most likely fit your wedding and reception style and personal tastes! Highly recommend!

We booked this band through our wedding coordinator and were quite pleased. Their range is really wonderful. Our only complaint was a miscommunication in playing of our special requests for bride/groom and bride/father dance. We ended up having to provide our own music for this and it was a real headache but they did a fantastic job and we would highly reccommend them to anyone.

They even recorded the speeches and emailed them to us afterward!! What a wonderful surprise! Thank you!!
Spectrum Band responded with the following comments:
As always, we love great feedback like this with positive recommendations! I do recall the miscommunication issue and it was not the fault of the bride (or the band). We're always happy to learn a new song for brides. We include the statement on all our our literature that we need at least an 8 week notice so that we have time to write charts and rehearse the song. The wedding coordinator didn't make rmarieblunt aware of this until two weeks before the wedding. So, we ended up using a CD instead.

This is an example when using a booking agent or an event planner to coordinate with a band or DJ can be an issue. Almost all of our clients book the band directly and that eliminates any chances of miscommunication since in our case, I work hard to be very organized. It's also less expensive to book a band directly since you will avoid the booking agent fee that is typically included in the cost. Thought this might be helpful to those that are currently in the planning stages of their wedding. Have fun!

For the price I payed, the quality of service was great. They stayed longer than expected and preformed beautifully. This vendor is highly recommended by myself and my wife.

Tim and the band were amazing! Our guests screamed for an ENCORE at the end of the night. I used to book and promote bands in college and the service Tim provided exceeded all of my experience with professional agents/routers/managers (I booked Dave Matthews, Counting Crows, Bill Cosby...etc). I would highly recommend this band to any of my friends, especially those with as discerning musical tastes as my husband and I have.

Spectrum Band made finding a wedding band so simple and easy. My husband and I were debating back and forth with my parents over getting a band or a DJ. My parents won in the end and I have to admit they were right. The band made our wedding more elegant and kept the party going. The dance floor was full the entire evening. Tim Callihan was so easy to work with and gave us piece of mind. Thank you Spectrum Band!!

If I had to do it all over again, the first thing I would do is book the Spectrum Band!! Oh my gosh – they MADE the night!! I really would be rich if I had a dollar for all the compliments I’ve gotten. I truly can’t begin to explain how great Tim, the band manager, was to work with. They had everything planned and scheduled perfectly. The music was SO much fun, and so great for all ages! They even let one of my bridesmaids play on stage with them during one of the songs (she asked them if she could play the cowbell!)! It was hilarious!! The female singer came out on the dance floor a few times and had all the guests sing along – it was great! The dance floor was literally PACKED the whole night – the music made me smile all night long!!! They were wonderful!!! Book them NOW!!! www.spectrumband.net

The band played a variety of music styles, which was very important to us. We were really happy with the overall performance. One disappointment in that instead of wearing the formal attire as was planned, the female vocalist wore her cap and gown from her graduation that day. Very unprofessional and inappropriate in that aspect.
Spectrum Band responded with the following comments:
The female vocalist had agreed to perform at this wedding even though it was her graduation day at Washington University where she completed her doctoral program in pharmacy. Prior to the performance, the vocalist asked the mother of the bride if it was acceptable to wear the cap and gown and was told "certainly" and that it would be fun for everyone.
