Brena Band fabulous!!

We hired the Brena band for my daughter’s wedding at Baypoint Inn and could not have been any more pleased with the music and professionalism they provided throughout the afternoon and evening, as a 50 year musician myself I was was amazed at the musical talents of all the band members, they were very accommodating to all and any requests and the wedding party and guests had the most wonderful evening, Brena comes highly recommend by me and they are sure to provide your party or reception with fantastic music and dancing, thank you Brena!!

Best Night of our lives!

Craig and the entire band are a dream to work with. We booked two years in advance and were not disappointed. They know how to keep the party going, control a crowd and help you make a grand entrance. We are so thankful to have gotten them to play for our ceremony and reception. No one sat down. Just danced all night long! Going to find an excuse to book them again!

Amazing Band

Hiring Brena was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. All the members are SO talented. Our friends and families raved about how great they were. Our dance floor was packed the whole night. They are also so easy to work with and are great with communication and organization.

Amazing Band!

Brena was professional and excellent from start to finish! EVERYONE was asking where I found them. (I think I found you guys a few new groupies!)
We had a great time dancing. Amazing sound, incredible vocals, and great diversity in their set list. My mother-in-law even requested a polka and they nailed it!

Amazing experience!

I hired Brena Band extremely last minute to play my ceremony music. I had planned on using my DJ and they encouraged me to choose live music. I'm so glad they did. Brena's string trio was perfect. They met with me beforehand to go over all the selections and were so kind and accommodating. And of course, talented! Couldn't have had a better experience with them.

The BEST wedding band ever! We found Brena on the knot and were able to watch them live at a few shows. We loved them so much we booked them almost 2 years in advance. They know how to keep a dance floor packed! With live and seamless transitions between genres, there was really never a dull moment on the dance floor. They took the simple direction of "keep the party going and play to the crowd" and did just that! I loved how responsive Craig and team were, how much fun they had playing our wedding, and how much fun the guests had. We had no less than 10 people ask for their contact information in the days after the wedding because they had such a good time! Also, amazing job emceeing the reception! They took the time to go over the timeline with us, get phonetic pronunciations for the bridal party, and work with us on the perfect timeline flow. Honestly, our wedding would not have been remotely as fun as it was without Brena. I would recommend them 1000 times over to anyone. Genuinely nice people who had a great time doing what they love, and it showed!!

Brena played my sister-in-law's wedding a few years ago and I knew I needed them for my wedding one day. I booked them before I even had a date, venue, or budget. They were incredibly nice to work with and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with them and stress-free. Our wedding was this past weekend and Brena helped make it absolutely perfect. I hardly left the dance floor all night and neither did our guests. I had people come up to me the next day and say that they were the best wedding band they have ever heard, and I completely agree with them. I am a budget-minded bride and let me give you some advice: splurge a little for Brena. They are worth every penny. I couldn't imagine our reception without them.

Brena Band is amazing! They did a great job at our wedding! Our guests and my husband and I agree it was the best music we have ever heard at a wedding. They play a variety of music and our dance floor was always packed! Craig was so professional and easy to work with during the planning process. We hired them for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. You will not regret booking with Brena! Money well spent!

I cannot thank Brena enough for playing on our wedding day! They played both our ceremony and reception and it was truly amazing. Not only are they extremely talented, but they are some of the nicest people I have met and so energetic- literally every one of our guests was on the dance floor because of them! If I had to do this all again, I would choose Brena a million times over!
