Worth Every Penny!

Look no further for your wedding music needs. Cagen Music is exactly what you're looking for! Our wedding was in September, and our 200+ guests are STILL telling us: "Your band was amazing!", "That band was the best band I've ever heard at a wedding", "Your wedding was so fun, and that band?! Fantastic." I wish our guests had paid attention to all the details that well!
Honestly though, Cagen Music deserves every recognition. After having to reschedule multiple times due to Covid, we really wanted to dance the night away with our friends and family. They made sure our guests stayed on the dance floor all night long with a wide variety of songs. I'd even go so far as to say our first dance song sounded better than the original! Definitely choose Cagen Music for your next event, you won't be disappointed!

Outstanding! All around and in every way outstanding experience with Becky and her musicians.

In every way was this the perfect choice for our daughter’s wedding. Becky and her band made the night super awesome and so much fun! The music, the vocalists, outstanding. The kind of night that you never want to end.

This band will get the whole party started!

Cagen Music is fantastic! Becky called us prior to the wedding and went through the entire day from ceremony to reception and really listened to what we wanted. We had a few unusual requests and she helped coordinate everything. The music was so fun and our dance floor was full the entire night. The string orchestra was amazing and the band really helped make our day one to never forget.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
