Best and only way to party!!!

My husband and I absolutely love dueling pianos, and it has been a big part of our relationship. When we were looking for wedding bands and saw this was an option, we immediately booked!! By far the best decision of our big day! It was the perfect way to get the party started, and once it did, it never stopped!!! The band was so easy to communicate with, and they were so accommodating! They took requests, let everyone that wanted to give a speech have the opportunity, and even let our best man take a stab at serenading us!! Could not recommend them enough!! What are you waiting for?! Book today!! They just add that extra fun to your already perfect celebration!!

Beyond amazing entertainment!!!

If you gathered the world's top scientists and created the perfect wedding reception entertainment in a lab the result would be AZ Dueling Pianos. Lark and Wes were amazing from start to finish. And when I say start, I really mean it. We met Lark a year before our wedding when she just so happened to be playing at the dueling piano bar where I proposed to my wife with Lark's last minute help. It was her perfect rendition of Bruno Mars's "Marry You" (which she learned on the spot) that really made the proposal perfect. We stayed in touch and were thrilled to learn that she played wedding receptions as AZ Dueling Pianos. We were even more thrilled when we realized that her very reasonable prices actually fit in our budget.
Throughout the wedding planning, Lark and Wes were so accommodating. They were responsive to all our requests, made helpful suggestions, and were incredibly flexible as we were constantly changing timelines and floor plans. They were even more amazing on the day of the reception. Our biggest fear was that people would not dance at our wedding (smallish wedding with a very plain venue) but those fears immediately subsided as soon as Lark and Wes kicked off the night. From the first note of "Livin' On A Prayer" to the last note of "Don't Stop Believing," the dance floor was packed and our guests loved every second. We lost count of how many people told us "best dance party ever!"
To top it off, halfway through the night Lark presented us with the exact request card I gave her the night I proposed to my wife over a year earlier. She had it saved in a small frame so that we could keep it forever. Which brings me to my last point. AZ Dueling Pianos will provide great entertainment no doubt, but what really sets them apart is the heart that they put into their event. We will cherish the memories we made with them forever.

Best entertainment ever

One of my husband's only requests for the wedding was live music. Let me tell you- THESE GUYS MADE THE WEDDING!

Wes was amazing to work with and is such a true professional. Our guests were on the dance floor all night, and no one has stopped talking about how much fun they had at the wedding.

They learned the songs we asked, kicked of our fireworks with a perfect rendition of Queen's "Don't Stop Me Now" and took every request all night. I'm talking EVERY REQUEST. We heard everything from NSYNC to old school rap to country. Every guest was out of their seat dancing all night. Our photographers said that they've honestly never seen such crowd involvement before.

If I were to plan my wedding again, this would be the very first vendor I would hire, and I would seriously design my budget around them.

(Also if you hire them for your wedding, please invite me- they were SO MUCH FUN!)

A big hit at our wedding!

My husband and I used AZ Dueling Pianos for our wedding in Tucson, AZ and they were a big hit! We still have guests from our wedding raving about Wes and Lark!! Wes helped us early on with booking our wedding date and keeping in touch with us through a year of planning. The performance of our first dance song was incredible and hearing it played live made it that much more special, plus they nailed it! Wes beautifully performed our ceremony music, provided cocktail hour music, light vocals and piano for dinner and the reception was a Vegas style Dueling Piano show, which was so much fun! They played a great mix of songs and accepted requests from us and our guests. My husband and I highly recommend AZ Dueling Pianos for any event, especially weddings if you’re looking to really impress your guests. We look forward to seeing them perform again in Arizona and California :)

Where do I begin? To say AZ Dueling Pianos MADE OUR WEDDING RECEPTION is an understatement! They were incredible! I didn’t think our guests were the dancing type of crowd, and a typical reception with a DJ just didn’t seem right for us. I wanted something different, more engaging and entertaining.

To be honest….when I considered a dueling piano show at our reception, I was nervous about it. I wasn’t sure if it would be well received by our guests. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Everyone LOVED it! Having piano players just brought a whole new level of warmth and character to our wedding that we never would have had without them.

Wes and Lark poured their hearts into a spectacular performance, and their enthusiasm was contagious.

We wanted the entertainment to begin during dinner, and carry on throughout the remainder of the night. Even our many “non dancing friends” were up and grooving (a few started dancing during dinner!) It was so much fun and people are still raving about it.

If you are considering AZ Dueling Pianos for your wedding (or any other event) don’t ponder any further, just do it! You won’t regret it!

Feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions. You can also check out a quick video testimonial I did about my experience with AZ Dueling Pianos https://youtu.be/EJi4FG7TJow

Thank you Wes and Lark!!!!

If you are looking for unique entertainment at your wedding or other event, look no further than AZ Dueling Pianos! Wes and Collin did an amazing job of keeping everyone entertained with catchy beats during my wedding reception and cocktail hour this past November. Watching them play makes me wish I would have kept up with my piano lessons! They are both so talented and they can play just about any genre of music requested. They are friendly, professional and great to work with. They took special requests for our bridal party grand entrance songs and kept everyone laughing and dancing along with some fun and light-hearted entertainment for a couple of our guests who were celebrating their birthdays. I highly recommend them!

What a terrific find! Wes and his partner did a great job during both the ceremony and reception. We wanted something different (dueling pianos) for the reception opposed to a band or DJ and AZ Dueling Pianos exceeded our expectations. The crowed had a blast, with many requests. Wes accommodated our iTunes music in between for breaks and it was absolutely perfect, Price very reasonable, hope to use Dueling Pianos for future events.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
