Best Decision Ever

Alexander Ruwe and The Red Jackets were absolutely amazing to work with. From the planning to the execution, everything we dreamed of was accomplished even better than we planned it. From asking for a lot of songs to be done live rather than recorded and having their services during the ceremony, cocktail hour, and our reception, we were so happy with our choice in choosing the Red Jackets. They are so interactive and just lovely people to be around. I enjoyed every minute of it and enjoy seeing them at local St. Louis offerings; it helps us hold on to a little bit of the fun from our wedding day! THANK YOU ALEX, for making allll of our dreams come true. You made it ALL happen and I had a lot of asks 🙂 You could tell the band was having just as much fun as we were having. When catching up with our friends and family from our wedding day, they comment on how perfect the music was from our ceremony (thank you Alex!) and how fun and energetic the dancing was at the reception (thank you band!) we had the dance floor full all night long!! I think we are all still chanting *encore!*

Alex is the best!

Alex was absolutely amazing! We had to change our venue twice because of Covid and Alex worked with us through the whole process! In the end, we had a backyard wedding that was livestreamed and everyone there physically and virtually commented on how much they loved Alex! The acoustic music during our ceremony helped give it a super personal touch! Then, later in the evening when it started raining, Alex let us move him under a 10 X 20 tent and we kept the after party going for another 2 hours in the rain! We could not have asked for a better DJ! Alex truly cared about us and making our day the best day it could be! We 1000% plan on using Alex for any and all music needs in the future and he will be someone that we recommend to anyone who is looking for a DJ! Thanks so much Alex!!!

i.n.c. r.e.d. i.b.l.e.

Alex and his crew absolutely blew us away on our wedding day! They were so open and easy to connect with in the days before, and then they made our wedding day run so smoothly. We had acoustic sets during the ceremony and cocktail hour and then the full band during our reception. Our guests could not stop talking about how much fun they had and how incredible the band was!! I wish I could get married again just so I could watch them perform again! The dance floor was PACKED the entire night!! Our wedding day would not have been the same without them!!!
