Creating the Best Dance Floor Everytime!

Slippery Band played at several of our family and friends weddings previously, and after experiencing their talent and FUN it was a no brainer to book them first as soon as we got engaged. First off, Chris is an absolute pleasure to work with - extremely organized, timely in his communication and thorough. We requested they learn three different songs not on their initial song list for our first dance and parent dances, and they were incredible! Learning Celine Dion and Maggie Rogers is one thing, but sounding arguably better than the original artists in another! After those dances they had EVERY wedding guest up an dancing and having the best time. They played everything from current pop to oldies and rock and had something in their repertoire to please everyone. A packed and fun dance floor was so important to us, and Slippery Band made sure it was the best ever!! Hire them for your wedding and you will not be disappointed.

Professional dancer approved!

We cannot thank Slippery Band enough for elevating our wedding to the next level! We were blown away by their talent, professionalism, set list, hospitality, and generosity with our crowd. Our family and friends will not stop raving about how magnificent the wedding was - how much fun they all had on the dance floor together. Generations of love all singing and dancing, thanks to the band! Thankful for the opportunity to sing on stage with the band - a moment we will all cherish forever and ever. We loved all the songs the DJ snuck in there - he truly HYPED up our crowd! He had us laughing sooo hard as a bridal party prior to our entrances. The guys felt like they were UFC MMA fighters coming out for their entrances. LOL! Our parents were so proud - and we loved that view from the stage! Wow. To stand and receive all that love and energy from our family - it was a moment we will cherish for the rest of our lives. We couldn't have imagined anything better. It was the grand party and celebration of our dreams. Thanks for working so delightfully with our full team of vendors. What a gift to offer LIVE music all night long to our family and friends - the joy you brought to our wedding was like none other!
