Best decision i ever made

There is NOTHING I love more than a live band and as a bride who had the privilege of having The Storytellers at my wedding, I can confidently say that it was the BEST decision I made during my entire wedding experience.

They not only have all the amazing talents that come with a band, beautiful vocals and unbelievable skills with different instruments BUT they have IMMACULATE vibes that kept everyone out of their seats, up on their feet and dancing.

Working with them was incredibly easy AND I had put my entire trust in them because I knew they know how to throw an amazing party! They have the longest list of songs I have ever seen with the widest range. The entire night they had songs playing that met every generation and didn't miss a beat!

This is now the second wedding that my family has booked The Storytellers and they have proven with each event that THEY ARE IT!

BRIDES! If you have the smallest inkling that you may want a band, DO IT, and do it with The Storytellers! YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!!!!!!

The best band out there

Hands down the absolute best band that ever existed. So wonderful to work with. From the first communication to the very last song, The Storytellers exceeded every expectation we had. Their talent is off the charts, their energy is infectious, and they brought so much joy to our wedding. Every single guest was raving—not just during the event but for days afterward—about how amazing the band was.

They read the crowd perfectly, kept the dance floor packed all night, and created such a fun and unforgettable atmosphere. On top of that, they were kind, professional, and a true pleasure to work with. We felt completely taken care of from start to finish.

If you're thinking about hiring them—do it. I can’t recommend them highly enough. They made our night absolutely magical, and we’ll be talking about them for years to come.

Most memorable night ever!

Candace and the Storytellers were absolutely fantastic! From the very first time we saw them perform at the Red Lion in NYC to our wedding day, Candace was super responsive, accommodating, and flexible. It's clear why she and her group have built such a wonderful reputation over the years.

The variety of music and the joyful experience they created made sure that everyone, including us, had an amazing time on the dance floor all night long.

Thank you so much, Candace, for helping to make our special day truly perfect! We can't recommend this incredible group enough!

The best band ever!

HIRE THE STORYTELLERS!!!!! You won't be sorry!
After we saw The Storytellers at a friend's wedding a couple of years ago, we decided we wanted them to play at ours. Candace was incredibly responsive, attentive, helpful, and accommodating from our very first interaction. She helped us plan our reception timeline to maximize dancing and gave us a list of songs to choose from to help us cater to our guests. People are still talking about the band a week later. Everyone was blown away by the music and our dance floor was packed the entire night!!! We've heard from multiple people that they were one of the "best bands they've ever heard at a wedding." I cannot say enough about this band and how incredible they are. Thank you Candace & team for the best wedding we could've asked for!!!

Best decision ever!

The Storytellers were one of the best and easiest decisions we made when wedding planning. It was important for us to actually be able to experience our band outside of YouTube clips before we made the commitment for wedding entertainment, and the Storytellers were one of few bands that offered live shows in the city. From our first experience we were sold, and we went back to see them 3 more times leading up to the wedding for a fun night out. By the time it came to our wedding night, we felt like we knew the band - but somehow we were still blown away by their incredible talent. The venue coordinator told us it was the first wedding she worked where most guests were up and dancing even before appetizers were served. Months later, we're still getting comments on what a great band we had. Don't hesitate to check them out for your event - they're kind, professional, and know how to keep the party going!

Best Brooklyn Band!!

Storytellers brought the fun to our Brooklyn wedding last month!! Everyone said it was the best band they ever heard at a wedding. We danced all night! They were such talented musicians and vocalists! Amazing song list! The band made the wedding so much fun!!

Plus, on the front end, Candace was sooo easy to work with and made the process very clear and easy. Of all the things we had to worry about for the wedding- music was not one of them!

Could not recommend them enough. Thank you Storytellers!

Best Band!! Best time.

We had the absolute best experience with Storytellers Band. My wedding was September 2024 and we couldn't have been happier. Candace was incredible to work with and made the entire process leading up to the event so smooth and seamless. The band crushed it start to finish, from the processional, through the cocktail hour and during the entire reception. Several friends and family even asked us for their name/card at the end of the night because they enjoyed them so much, too! No one left the dance floor the entire night, which says enough! Best decision!

Best band choice - independent, talented, and sound AMAZING

The Storytellers were the perfect live band choice for our wedding. Unlike the bands you find from bigger agencies where middle men and extra fees are involved, the Storytellers and independent & have the utmost chemistry with one another because they're not some part of some big corporate large roster that mixes and matches.

Special shout out to Candace. Ultimate band leader & point person from the band. She made us feel so taken care of during our wedding - they played jam after jam after jam!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

This band rocks! The voices are stunning and the musicians are amazing. I feel so lucky when I get to hear such talented musicians while I'm working both because it feeds my energy as a photographer and because it gets the guests moving like crazy with big smiles on their faces-which in turn makes my job of creating wild candid dancing images so much better. This band is a pleasure to work with, kind people, wonderful talent and passion. I look forward to getting to work by them again, I hope soon!
