Very organized band with amazing stage presence!

We had high expectations for BWK and we were BLOWN AWAY by how amazing they were on our wedding day! We worked with Molly as our producer who was extremely responsive and on top of everything. BWK has a planning portal that we used throughout the process which kept everything extremely organized. They were extremely familiar with our venue which was super helpful as they were able to provide helpful recommendations on how to make the evening flow best music-wise.

We had a six-piece band which was a great size for our venue, with them performing at the cocktail hour and at the reception. They had amazing stage presence the whole time and really got everyone up and dancing. We were a bit worried that they play the same setlist for every wedding, but they really did curate to our music likes/dislikes (including the DJ portion). Our guests absolutely RAVED about them, and many guests said they hadn't danced like that in years!

Incredible band!!

We debated hiring a band vs DJ and we can truly say hiring Bluewater Kings was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Our 7 piece band blew us and all of our guests away - we couldn’t tear ourselves away from the dance floor! They read the crowd perfectly and kept the energy up the whole night. They are so talented and have a really wide range! The planning process was also great with them - Molly was very communicative and helped talk me through some of the questions and concerns I had with a band playing at our venue. We would highly recommend them to anyone who is even considering a band!! They truly made our night so memorable.

The Best Night of Our Lives

Words can't describe how grateful my husband and I are to Bluewater Kings Band for making our wedding day so special. It has been an absolute pleasure working with Molly and the Bluewater Kings Band. We wish we could yell from the rooftops to anyone and everyone who will listen about how phenomenal our experience was with the band. Our wedding would not have been the same without them. Our guests are STILL talking about how spectacular the music was, and I imagine they will continue to talk about it for years. I know we will. Thank you thank you thank you. Molly and the band have contributed so much to making our wedding day the best day of our lives.
