Dat Band Review

We took a chance booking Dat Band without ever seeing them perform live, but it was one of the highlights of our entire wedding. My top priority when planning the wedding was the music. I wanted a band that could cater to all ages and offer a wide variety of genres. After reading reviews and working closely with Chad, we decided to go ahead, and I’m so glad we did.

From the beginning, Chad was incredibly responsive and thorough with communication. He took the time to understand our vision, made sure our specific song requests were heard, and had several check-ins with me leading up to the big day to make sure everything was aligned.

On the wedding day, Dat Band exceeded all expectations. The dance floor was packed all day long, and everyone had a fantastic time. Weeks later, I’m still getting compliments about how amazing the band was and how much fun everyone had. Dat Band played for three hours, and my only regret is not booking them for longer—I didn’t want to leave the dance floor or for the party to end!

I highly recommend Dat Band for any wedding or event. They’re easy to work with, incredibly responsive, and most importantly, they know how to keep the energy high and the crowd having fun. If you want your guests to have an unforgettable time, look no further!

Dat Band was nothing less of amazing and perfect! They were very accommodating and worked with my schedule to meet up to discuss everything! They even went as far as to make my dreams come true for a brass jazz band that played while our guest entered the reception! They were very entertaining and interacted with the guest. My guest have ranted and raved about how awesome Dat Band was! I would without a doubt book them for another event and recommend them to anyone who needs entertainment at their event!!
