Curated Music for Our Greatest Adventure

Live music was a must for us, and DeLeon delivered at every stage—from a string trio on the beach, to a dinner duo, to a full horn section dance band that brought the house down. They even learned a Grateful Dead song for our first dance—and let our daughter Bella jump in to sing. Now that’s personal service. Sheila and Anthony were amazing to work with from beginning to wedding. Hope to find another reason to book them again soon!

The ultimate wedding performance

The DeLeon Band was simply amazing. Anthony and Sheila were very responsive all through the process and not one detail was left out. From the ceremony acoustics, to the cocktail hour, to the ROCKING reception, they killed every aspect. My guests filled the dance floor the entire reception and we didn’t have one conversation with them that didn’t involve complementing the band. If you are on the fence about a DJ vs a band, PICK THIS BAND. You will not regret it!!!!

Best Decision We Made

We cannot speak highly enough of DeLeon! We booked an 8-piece band for our wedding (with a 3-piece jazz trio for our cocktail hour) and we were absolutely blown away. First of all, they answered all of our questions and made the process of booking a band painless and fun. They were responsive, helpful, professional, and assured us that they would make sure our wedding was one to remember. When our wedding day came, they did not disappoint! We wanted a mostly upbeat reception and DeLeon really brought the energy - the dance floor was full from start to finish! They are amazing musicians and know how to get a crowd pumped up! They played everything we requested and knew how to fill in the gaps – they even took requests from our guests!

We really felt they put a personal touch on our wedding night, and for that we are forever grateful. To this day, whenever people talk about our wedding, they ALWAYS mention our band first and talk about how it really made the night fun. We highly recommend their lighting package as well - it went perfectly with the music and overall experience. We were very nervous about picking the right band for our day, but DeLeon delivered everything we were looking for AND MORE - to say they nailed it would be an understatement.

Simply put – go with DeLeon – You won’t be disappointed!

Hire. This. Band.

Hire. This. Band.

Finding a band for our wedding was one of the hardest tasks, but after weeks of searching, we knew we found who we wanted the second we came across DeLeon based on their videos online. Sheila and Anthony were an absolute pleasure to work with for the months leading up to the wedding, which put us entirely at ease. We couldn’t wait to finally get to hear them live. When the band started to play the first song at the reception, I couldn’t tell if it was the band or a recording. They sounded THAT good. They played every song that we carefully selected from their extensive and phenomenal catalogue. They even learned a song for my sister and her fiancé, who are professional singers and songwriters, to sing with them, and absolutely nailed it. My sister described them as “one of the best bands she’s ever sang with,” which is high praise! They even played a song spontaneously that they had never played before and NAILED it. DeLeon had everyone out on the dance floor the ENTIRE night. Because of them, nobody even left the wedding early and the reception was an absolute dream come true. SO many guests have been texting us ever since saying how amazing they were and that it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to.
Additionally, for our ceremony and our cocktail hour, they provided keys and guitar and sounded absolutely magnificent.

It’s not every day you find a band with such musical talent that is also incredibly kind and a joy to work with. We couldn’t be more grateful to DeLeon. Don’t look any further than this band. We hired 9 players (including three horns players) and we wouldn’t change a thing.

THANK YOU DELEON!

Absolutely Amazing!

DeLeon Entertainment was AMAZING! They made our wedding so memorable and fun! From the string trio, to the cocktail entertainment, to the band during our reception...one of the best decisions we made was to book them for our wedding! Guests are still raving about the band weeks after the event. Anthony & Sheila were so flexible and easy to work with! Do yourself a favor and book them for your event, you won't regret it!

Best band ever

Everyone could not stop dancing! Deleon is the best wedding band you can find in the tampa area hands down. Our goal was to have the dance floor filled the entire night and it was! The next morning everyone could not stop talking about how much they enjoyed the band. They are able to play pretty much every type of music..and play it AMAZINGLY! Sheila and Anthony were a delight to work with leading up to the event and were able to achieve everything we asked for. I recommend booking them for any event you have where you need music! We used them for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and the reception and everyone was very impressed by their talent!

Excellent!

Sheila and Anthony, the leaders of the band, were a joy to work with. They answered all our questions, helped us through the planning process, and day of, made everything perfect. They did our ceremony music with strings, cocktail hour with a jazz trio, and a full 10 piece band for the reception, and all the music was fantastic.

Just amazing!

Played at our wedding on 5/21/22 at Opal Sands. This was our #1 compliment all night and the day after, " OMG WHERE DID YOU FIND THE BAND?!! THEY ARE AMAZING!!!!" Our entire reception was up dancing within seconds when dancing started, and we were even calling for an encore at the end. All night everyone talked about the band and how amazing they were. We cannot say enough great things!!! THANK YOU for making our wedding day so memorable! I also want to point out they were also very flexible as our reception was late due to ceremony starting later due from bad weather - They even stayed and played later for us! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best Band Ever

Deleon entertainment blew all of our expectations out of the water. We booked them for our wedding on 5/6/22 without ever hearing them play live and they did not disappoint. They are an amazing band and kept the party on the dance floor. Our guests absolutely loved them. We received too many compliments to keep track of regarding their performance. We would 100% use them again.
