Panorama was incredible. We loved working with Ben, who leads the band. He was attentive and helped make our dream a reality: the band played a requested processional and recessional song, and was also game to participate in some Jewish ritual before our ceremony. We hired the brass band (not the jazz band) and had 10 players - they sounded tremendous. Since our wedding was Jewish, a hora was in order, and Panorama made it truly epic: we danced for 20 minutes straight in joyous revelry, while the band played at full speed and fury. It was a wedding highlight. If you want to get down to one of the best bands around, Panorama is hard to beat!

Panorama was outstanding for our wedding in the Marigny area of New Orleans. For our event, we wanted a band with tons of experience doing weddings, but whose sound, repertoire, and style are special outside the genre of wedding music. Panorama was perfect for us. The music was fun, interesting, and emotionally varied, at times bombastic and at others more contemplative. They composed new arrangements of a few pieces for our dances, including a Chinese pop song, and had musical guests asking for the lead sheets. A breeze to work with, would do it again if we could!

Panorama Jazz Band performed during our Welcome Party at The Columns Hotel on a Friday night. They were the life of the party, entertaining guests in their 20s and in their 70s. The positive experience with Panorama began even before the party started though - of all the vendors we had for the wedding, they were one of the most responsive, easiest to communicate with, and most friendly. We would certainly book Panorama again for another event in New Orleans. Their music quality, high energy, and professionalism all made them a smash hit!

Nothing but great things to say about Panorama! We wanted our guests to walk into a New Orleans jazz party and they brought it! They played beautiful processional music for our ceremony and got everyone on their feet dancing for the entire cocktail hour. Ben was a pleasure to work with. Thanks for making our wedding a true celebration!

My wife and I are big music fans living in New Orleans. We go out to see bands several nights a week, so we know the music of the city. When we were married, we asked Panorama to play our reception because of their unique and authentic sound. They don't play tired wedding-band music or tourist music - Panorama is the real deal. The players are all top-tier musicians, many of whom are stars in the local scene. Ben and the group were supportive and easy to work with in choosing a first song. They brought great energy to their performances on our wedding night. As one of the city's premier jazz ensembles, we hightly recommend Panorama Jazz Band if you want a fun, authentic, and high-quality music.

We hired Panorama for our Upstate, NY wedding, and they absolutely made our day. The music was amazing, the vibes were excellent, and it was all thanks to them. They even so graciously learned a special song that we requested to play us down the aisle. They are the best — don't do a wedding without Panorama!

We've known Panorama Brass Band for over a decade now, from past carnival celebrations in New Orleans. They never fail to bring it, so we hired them for our wedding. And bring it they did! We had them play one set after dinner and another one after we moved to another space and people just couldn't have enough. Our guests danced their booties off—even those who rarely ever dance at parties and those unfamiliar with brass bands. EVERYONE danced. It was truly joyous, and friends and family still bring it up. "Best wedding I've ever been to," I hear over and over again. And the band has a huge part of that. They just killed it! We love Panorama! Thanks Ben and team!

Having panorama as part of our wedding really took the whole experience up a level from just plain special to transcendent. They brought klezmer magic to our tisch (celebratory reception before the ceremony) and played throughout the ceremony. They were delightfully flexible about learning the Lord of the Rings theme song to play when we presented our rings to each other! All in all, we can't imagine our wedding without them.

Wow, where do I even begin to express our incredible experience with Panorama? These guys are absolute rockstars. It felt like they were just as excited about our wedding as we were, and that level of enthusiasm made all the planning so much more enjoyable.

What really set Panorama apart was their calm and flexible demeanor. Wedding planning can be stressful, but these guys were like a cool breeze on a hot day. They rolled with the punches, adapted to changes effortlessly, and always had a smile on their faces. They asked just enough questions to make sure we had our desires fulfilled but weren't overwhelming at all. It made us feel like we were in the best hands possible.

They also have an amazing ability to blend cultures. We were celebrating a Jewish and Cajun wedding, and knew that music would be a big part of the blended experience. Panorama seamlessly incorporated elements from both cultures, creating a celebration that felt uniquely ours. They even helped us brainstorm more ways to incorporate our heritages and personalities throughout the day. Their second line was awesome! Their hora was fantastic! Their ceremony music was beautiful, and their cocktail hour and dinner music was so fun. Their music brought everyone together and ensured we had the best party ever.

And speaking of the party, Panorama brought the house down! Their music selection was spot-on. We were a bit worried about "only" having an instrumental band, but we needn't have worried at all. The dance floor was never empty, and even our more reserved guests couldn't resist their irresistible tunes. It was a non-stop party, and we couldn't have asked for anything more.

If you're looking for a wedding band that's not just about playing music but creating an experience, look no further than Panorama. They turned our special day into a magical celebration that we and our guests will remember forever. We wish we could get married again, just to party with Panorama! Thanks, y'all!
