Best Band Ever!

I cannot say enough good things about Armando, Susan and their team at Encore!! They are incredible and so kind and fun and easy to work with. The band made my daughter's wedding!! It was absolutely perfect!! Their artists are so so talented! They provided all of the music for the entire wedding, from the strings for the ceremony to a fabulous rock violinist for the cocktail hour and a 10 piece band for the reception with phenomenal singers and dancers and a DJ/percussionist light show for the afterparty! it was absolutely incredible and so so fun! They even provided the photo booth.The band made the wedding and everyone is still taking about how great the music was. Everyone danced - the dancers and singers interacted with all of our guests and Armando was there the whole way making sure everything was perfect. They were incredibly flexible and thoughtful and kind- working with us on last minute changes due to having the wedding in the year of Covid and still staying on our budget. Many of our guests were from Dallas and Atlanta and all said Encore was the best band they had ever heard and would fly them to Dallas for their wedding. A huge thank you to Armando and Encore- the best band ever!!

Most fun, most professional, most amazing!

Could not possibly recommend Encore enough! Susan and Armando went above and beyond to make our wedding day spectacular. They treated our wedding like it was their own, and were so supportive, helpful and accessible to answer all of our questions along the way (and let’s face it - if you haven’t planned a wedding before you will have a LOT of questions). We had 350 people all on the dance floor all night long - which is exactly what my husband and I wanted! They also did a fantastic job with the string quartet at our ceremony - opposite vibes, perfect execution for each. If I could give 10 stars I would! They made our wedding incredible and hands down best night of my life. The most frequent comment from our guests after the fact was “Your band was amazing!” And it’s true. Our wedding felt like a concert, not just a band at our wedding. Worth every penny. Thank you Susan and Armando for being so honest, helpful, and fun to work with. Will recommend to every friend and relative that gets married!!

The level of service you get with Susan and Encore is out of this world. We had originally interviewed a few bands but once we spoke to Susan we could feel her energy. This energy carried our wedding the entire night! The dance floor was absolutely never empty and we had music that were crowd pleasers. I do truly think music is one of the fundamentals of a wedding and Encore rocked our wedding! We can't thank Encore enough!

Our party was "The talk of the Town". The music and talent was beyond our expectations. Thank you for organizing everything and adding the extra "love" to make my evening perfect. Honestly, my family and I can not thank you enough.
Happy New Year!

From start to finish we had an incredible experience working with Encore. We met with three other bands and decided to go with Encore for what we thought was an amazing value and also for how comfortable we felt with Susan. Through out the entire process Susan worked with our budget and was completely transparent about the breakdown of the final bill, further making us feel truly cared for. While we were excited to be getting such great value for our money, what really set Encore apart was the personal touches and suggestions that we received during planning. Susan came up with amazing suggestions to personalize our event and make it memorable for us and the guests, like inviting a member of the family with down syndrome up on stage for a special song. We were even surprised on the day of with party favors and props for the dance floor, which made for so much fun!

While these personal touches helped to set Encore apart, I can't forget to mention how phenomenal the actual MUSIC was! The entire band was incredibly talented and played to the energy of the room. One of the highlights of the entire day was feeling the energy coming from our guests as we made our grand entrance as husband and wife. I'm not sure anyone else could have pumped up the crowd the same way, making it one of the most memorable moments from the wedding.

The next day at our farewell brunch guest after guest commented on what fun the band was...the best they'd ever seen! Everyone noted how incredible it was to see every single guest on the dance floor. We asked the band to play a short set just before dinner to get the energy up and set the tone for the night. It was the best decision we made, and we were so grateful for Encore for everything they did to help make it work just the way we wanted it to. Our engaged friends have been asking for the contact information of Encore after the wedding and I couldn't give them a bigger endorsement then to book them.

Encore event entertainment exceeded both of our expectations! In addition to the band, Encore provided music during the happy hour reception and lighting for the stage. Susan and Armando were so pleasant to deal with and it's clear that they understand the music business like it's the back of their hand. Encore helped us with our wedding timeline and ensured ultimate party vibes for our guests the ENTIRE time which was wonderful! Our guests still rave about the celebration, which started long before dinner was served. We can still hear the music playing in our heads, and what a sweet sound it is! The performers were top notch and if you want to sprinkle in rap music into your party-don't worry Encore has you covered! Thanks again, Susie and Armando, you will always be a HUGE part of our special day. We highly recommend this band to anyone looking to blow the socks off of their guests :)

Dear Susan and Encore:

Susan:
Thank you so so much for working with us. I know we weren’t always the easiest to work with but you were always there to answer any questions we had and made booking a band the easiest task of planning our wedding.

Encore:
You guys were phenomenal!!!! You were very professional with everything and the energy and passion you showed really brought everyone to there feet. All night people were coming up to us telling Jesse and I that you guys were the best band they have ever seen at a wedding. Your transitions between songs were perfect I thought it would be trick with all genre of music we had recommended but you guys moved from song to song flawlessly. You made my wedding night a night that will never be forgotten!

Thank you, Thank you a thousand times!
Sincerely,

Kristina and Jesse
