Unbelievable band

Take 2 Band played for our wedding and they were outstanding!! They played all the songs we asked them to and they knew how to read the room and play the right songs at the right time…as a testament to their talent, our guests couldn’t stop raving about them. They were talking about them a week later! Steve Bloom was excellent to work with, great customer service and professionalism. We cannot say enough good things about them. 12/10 would recommend.

Amazing Night

We were absolutely thrilled with TAKE 2 on our Wedding Vow Renewal! From the very first song to the last dance, they brought incredible energy and created such a joyful atmosphere. The music was fantastic—our guests couldn’t stop dancing all night!

They read the crowd perfectly, blending romantic tunes, lively hits, and everything in between. Beyond their amazing talent, they were also professional, easy to work with, and truly cared about making our day special.

We received so many compliments from friends and family saying it was one of the best wedding bands they’ve ever heard. Thank you for making our celebration unforgettable!

Amazing wedding band

Take2 was the biggest hit at our wedding! Their setlist was perfect based on music taste suggestions. They played each set nonstop! We heard from dozens of wedding guests that Take2 was the best live band they’ve ever seen at a wedding. Truly an amazing day and the best performance, we couldn’t recommend Take2 enough!

Best Band Ever

Take 2 did everything for us: ceremony music, MC duties, AV for speeches and ceremony, cocktail trio, and then reception band. During their break they even let me play my own playlist. They were so fun and interactive, we had tons of guests tell us they were the best wedding band they'd ever seen. Our reception felt like a huge party because of the energy and music the band played! They were very accomodating and helped us through the whole process. I'd recommend Take 2 to anyone looking for a wedding band!!!

Great band - had our guests dancing all night!

We hired Take2 for our September 2023 wedding and I am SO glad that we did! We had inclement weather and many challenges on our wedding day but the band remained super flexible and patient as we worked to create a plan B. Thank goodness that we did as Take2 was awesome - they had amazing energy and had our guests dancing non-stop. Many people commented on how fun and epic the music/band was. I also had a super positive experience working with Steve leading up to the wedding as he answered my many questions and helped me find the perfect band for my vision. Would definitely recommend this band!

Wonderful Band

The band was amazing. The set list was very tight and they sounded great together. The dance floor was packed all night. They also learned our first dance, father/daughter and mother/son dances, which was greatly appreciated. Highly recommend them!

Band for all ages/ demographics to enjoy!

Take 2 was a huge hit among all our wedding guests and were the vendors all our guests kept talking about!! My parents friends were dancing alongside all of our friends alongside all our family. Take 2 played songs that were huge hits across all ages, all night long, keeping the energy high and dance floor packed. Our wedding was at a private property with no running water and no electricity, yet Take 2 was flexible in the accommodations they requested and made it all work, despite the difficulties. Our wedding planner even commented saying Take 2 was the easiest band she's ever worked with. My manager at work and another close friend have both signed Take 2 for their upcoming weddings based off our reviews and experience.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
