Bill's Toupee knows how to throw a party!

Just got married last weekend - we had found Bill's Toupee over a year ago, saw them play at a show in Monticello, and then booked them immediately.

In the month leading up to the wedding, we had multiple phone calls with the band's lead, Mike Andrews. He was super accomodating and helpful in ensuring us how the day and timeline would go. We opted out of father-daughter dances and requested they play a song from Rent, the Musical (our friends are theater nerds) and when they played it, the crowd went absolutely wild! Additionally, I requested that they close out the evening with "Last Dance" by Donna Summer which they absolutely nailed. Our friends had the BEST time and lots of guests have commented about how great the band was! 10/10 would hire them again!

Outstanding Wedding Entertainment!

We made the best decision by hiring Bill’s Toupee for our wedding weekend! In the months leading up to the wedding, the band manager Mike was incredibly responsive, collaborative, and accommodating. I could tell the band was committed to making sure our wedding night would be very special and exceed our expectations…and it absolutely did! Our guests were on the dance floor all night long and we received so many compliments at our reception about how amazing the band was. On top of all being very talented musicians, the band members are all very kind and wonderful people. We are so appreciative of everything and highly recommend Bill’s Toupee for any couple looking for wedding entertainment.

Blew our expectations out of the water!

Bill's Toupee absolutely blew our expectations out of the water!! Our dance floor was packed all night, the older folks even got up for a few songs! Every member of the band is extremely talented. They have multiple lead singers, and I especially loved the saxophone - such a fun unexpected addition to current songs! They were easy to work with, responsive and their price is unbeatable for the level of talent! They charge half as much as some other bands in the area, which made me a little apprehensive if I'm being honest. They absolutely blew our expectations out of the water! They put on a killer show at an amazing price and I am so happy we hired them! They handled our ceremony music and played beautiful acoustic music pre-ceremony. We made a playlist for our cocktail hour and dinner, but they happily made sure our music played at the right times. Everything was perfect, they made our wedding so fun, I can't recommend them enough!

In a time where bands and musicians come and go like the seasons, it is a pleasure to have the Big Kahuna Band provide the entertainment at any wedding that I have been at. As a thirty year, veteran, wedding photographer I can endorse them as great musicians that never fail to pack the dance floor. You will never worry about having a dull reception when you have the Big Kahuna Band. They have earned their name. There can only be one Big Kahuna.
