Amazing Band, Professional Operation

We got married in September and the 1999 did so much more than just provide amazing music. They were the glue that brought all the pieces of our day together to make it magical. Alex, the MC, and the whole operation was so well organized, responsive, and communicative. Alex heard our ideas for our special day and provided feedback and guidance to help make it better than we could have ever imagined. From the ceremony to dancing and everything in between, The 1999 will ensure your day is the perfect day.

Not your average wedding band

When you hire The 1999, you’re getting so much more than just a band — you’re getting a team of professionals who truly care about making your day perfect. From start to finish, they were incredibly organized, responsive, and proactive in communication. They went above and beyond to make sure our timeline flowed seamlessly and that every part of the evening went off without a hitch.

The music was phenomenal, the energy was unmatched, and our guests are still talking about how much fun they had. We can’t thank The 1999 enough for making our wedding night everything we dreamed of and more!

Amazing Experience

Working with the 1999 was one of the best decisions we made in the entire wedding process. They were super accommodating, attentive and easy to get ahold of with any questions. They let us do some extra surprises for our guests and the energy of the night was amazing. Every member was incredible from the singer to the guitarists, drummers and manager! I would highly suggest them for any event in the future

Blanca and Joey Wedding

The 1999 absolutely rocks and we are so happy we were able to have them play at our wedding! From our first contact with Rob, communication was clear, concise and we always felt we were in great hands. Rob made himself available for any questions we had no matter the time of day or night.

On the wedding day, they exceeded all expectation. From the ceremony piano to the cocktail hour, to an unforgettable live band/DJ set, they nailed every moment. The dance floor was full all night.

So many guests came up and told us how unbelievable the music and energy was all night. They also really enjoyed the photobooth and telephone messaging that the band brought as well.

The 1999 made our night truly unforgettable, and we’re so grateful!

You NEED to book the 1999 live!!

I cannot recommend the 1999 live enough!!! Andrew and I knew after seeing them perform at our friends wedding in 2022 that when we got married we wanted them to be part of our special day.

We cannot say enough amazing things about Rob, Alex and everyone that is part of the 1999 Live — they were truly one of the highlights of our wedding! The compliments have not stopped since our wedding day and the texts keep flowing in on how much everyone enjoyed them. The energy they brought to the night was unmatched — the dance floor was never empty, from the first song to the very last.

They knew exactly how to read the room, keep the momentum going, and make sure every single guest had the best time. We even had a minor hiccup with our venues power and they made sure no one even realized. On top of the energy, they are extremely organized which is very comforting to a type A bride like myself.

If you’re looking for a band that will make your wedding unforgettable, look no further. We’re forever grateful to them for making our celebration so special! We love you guys!

Out Wedding Must Have!

It was abundantly clear that the 1999 Band and DJ team's pride and joy was making sure we (and all our family and friends) had the best night of our lives. From the beginning, they made the planning process organized and stress-free, helping us with booking, check-in meetings, and walking us through their music planning form.

Their day-of event management was seamless, keeping everything on track so we could just enjoy the moment. Most importantly, they killed it with incredible vocals, instrumental talent, and a DJ set that was curated perfectly to our music taste. We were blown away by their overall professionalism and incredibly fun vibes start to finish.

At one point, I ended up with red wine down the side of my wedding dress, and Viana came running with a Tide Stick in hand. They seriously do it all. We’ve been getting nonstop compliments and have already had newly engaged friends asking for their card.

By the end of the night, the 1999 Band & DJ combo felt like family. They exceeded all expectations and truly went above and beyond!

Best band ever!!!

Almost 2 months later and our friends and family are still talking about the dance floor. We LOVED The 1999 - we wish we could give them 100 stars!!! From our first phone call to the end of our wedding night, they were incredible to work with. They were super involved in the planning process – sending over a detailed questionnaire, setting up prep calls to understand our vision, crafting a timeline for the day, answering all our questions, and providing helpful suggestions. They really took the time to get to know us before the wedding. They created a custom processional song for our bridal party which was so thoughtful and special. They also accommodated our very unique and specific music taste. On the day of, they took care of all audio needs – including ceremony, acoustic cocktail hour and MC’ing at our reception (thank you DJ Alex!!). The dance floor was PACKED all night – the band is so talented and keeps the crowd engaged! There was such a perfect mix of music – from the classics to Zach Bryan/ Noah Kahan/ Natasha Bedingfield and mixing in fan favorites. They also coordinated having our friend go up and sing a song with them – such a hit! They posted an Instagram reel of our wedding the next day which was such a nice surprise and has been so fun to watch back. We also used their photobooth which our guests loved!! They’re amazing – BOOK THEM NOW!!! BEST PARTY EVER!

The Best Wedding Band

Absolutely amazing band! My wife actually suggested them as our wedding band when we saw them perform a few months before we were even engaged. Behind the scenes what truly separates The 1999 from other wedding options is the planning, time, and care they put into their performances. Rob was a rockstar all along the way taking away any nerves we had planning and turned that energy into excitement for the big day. Alex was a fantastic DJ and went above and beyond planning with us ahead of time to ensure every detail was all perfect. The band is extremely talented and Viana did an outstanding job with the playlist and reading the room while performing. Everyone left our wedding talking about how fantastic the band and DJ were
