Excellent wedding performance - would highly recommend

We had an amazing experience with Tapestry (and Maud as their contact person). They were timely, professional, and very skilled musicians on the day of. Thank you for all that you did for our special day!

Perfect Night

Absolutely perfect! They learned our song, Islands in the Stream, kept the party upbeat and going, and even let our friend sing a song. Loved working with Tapestry and would do it again!

the MOST fun Santa Fe wedding band!

oh my gosh! I cannot say enough good things about Tapestry! To summarize, they made our wedding an absolute blast, they were responsive throughout the process and our guests could not stop talking about how great of a band they were!

To elaborate, I have to firstly commend Tapestry for even putting up with me ha! I asked about a million questions and also went through all songs on their list to give them an exact playlist of songs we wanted. We even asked if they could learn a few which they did. They were always very accommodating and flexible, and always super responsive and kind!

To be honest, I was a bitttt nervous about Tapestry, for no reason other than that they weren't the typical young and trendy band playing only pop songs, like so many fellow millennials hire for their weddings. Their song list leaned a bit older and we didn't know how our guests would respond but people ended up LOVING it and the band was just as fun and energetic as if they were in their young 20s haha! All my reservations went away the minute the first song started playing and literally our entire wedding got up to dance - even after the wedding, people were telling us that they've never been to a wedding where so many people people stay on the dance floor for so long!

If you're getting married in Santa Fe or the surrounding area, DEFINITELY use Tapestry!!!

Loved the Tapestry Band!

We had the best night with the Tapestry band at our daughters wedding in Santa Fe September 10th. The music was fantastic! So many people keep telling us how much fun they had with the band. People were dancing all night and didn’t want it to end. Maud was so pleasant to work with through the whole planning process. The horn section was incredible. Great selection of songs to choose from as well. We would highly recommend them!! For the amount of energy, experience and quality of music they were very reasonable.

Tapestry was Amazing!!

We hired Tapestry to play for a couple of hours during our wedding reception. Maud was a great communicator and was very responsive months before our wedding and leading up to it! On the afternoon of our wedding, It started pouring rain a few hours before our ceremony and reception, so we had to switch up some details. We were so grateful that Tapestry still decided to come despite the chilly air. As the ceremony ended, the rain stopped and we all ventured outside to enjoy the music and have our first dance. It was so much fun to see our guests laughing and dancing. I would 100% hire Tapestry again.

Fantastic!

I can't overstate how fantastic Maud and her band were! They were accommodating, professional, and easy to work with, on top of just being excellent musicians that play a fantastic selection of music. I received (and continue to receive) constant compliments about the music at our wedding, and how people never want to go to a wedding without live music ever again! So thrilled that we had them for our wedding; it truly made the night special.

Maude and her organization took all the worry out of planning. They were very professional, responsive and accommodated some special songs on mp3. A magical evening that had even the 80 year olds boogie-down. Highly recommend them.

They were absolutely fantastic! They got everyone to dance, even when it started getting cold. We were able to provide them a little instruction as to what we wanted and they helped to make it fun and special. The music selection they chose during each part of the wedding worked perfectly whether it was cocktails or dancing. I would HIGHLY reccommend them to EVERYONE!
