Best Wedding Band Out There!!!

We had the pleasure of having the Funktastics for our wedding and it was an all around amazing experience. They provide an easy to use app to pick music you do and do not want. They will also learn up 7 songs of your choice that are not on their provided set-list. One of our favorite things about this band was their openness and flexibility to do something new! Both my husband and I had some requests and they were eager to help! Everyone was also super responsive and willing to meet as much as we needed. Then at the wedding they absolutely exceeded all expectations. The dance floor was full the whole time. Amazing vocals, amazing instruments, and very engaged with the crowd. 10/10 recommend!!

Look no further, this is the best band for your Wedding!

Funktastic were amazing! It’s been a month since our wedding and people are still complimenting them. They are top notch musicians of course, but what my bride and I were really impressed by was their impeccable professionalism throughout the entire process. Simply said, they are remarkably easy to work with. From the moment you begin working with them, it’s clear they want to make your day special. They provide you with an exhaustive song list for you to choose from, and on top of that they actively encourage you to pick songs for them to learn for you. So back to their musicianship, all I can say is “wow”! While we had a relatively small wedding, Funktastic made it feel like it was a full on dance party! So no matter what size your wedding is, Funktastic will supersede all of your expectations. Bonus tip: we got their jazz trio offering for our cocktail hour and they were amazing for that as well. Well worth it if you’re considering live music for that part of your wedding.

Our dance floor was packed the whole night. Well worth the price, an absolute highlight of our celebration!
