Simply the best! All of my guests said so! They played different styles of music at the ceremony, cocktail hour, sit down dinner and then a dessert/dance party . They did not drop the ball once. They filled every space beautifully. Working with Ben was a pleasure. He was professional, thorough, and talented! We had so much fun! I can not thank them enough.

If you're looking for a sleek, highly stylized, with practiced dance moves, formulaic wedding band, keep looking. If you're looking for a Band that simply brings warmth, amazing talent, has a real life club feel, and can totally rock a room without blowing out your ear drums, look no further.
Amazing evening.... No one wanted it to end.

During the planning of any event, let alone a wedding, a lot of time is spent doing research, especially for a key expense like a top band. My bride and I were beyond pleased with the level of service and quality delivered by Café Wha: these outstanding musicians had EVERYONE rocking from start to finish. So our little advice would be: go see Café Wha perform a set and book them right away---stop wasting your time researching for a band; you're going to need it for everything else!
