Amazing Band!!!!

We cannot recommend The Afterparty enough! From our very first interaction, they stood out for how organized, responsive, and professional they were. Their communication throughout the entire planning process was seamless and gave us so much confidence that we were in great hands.

And then they absolutely blew us away on the wedding night! They sounded incredible, brought the BEST energy, and kept our dance floor completely packed from start to finish. They knew exactly how to read the room and keep the party going all night long. So many of our guests have gone out of their way to tell us afterward how amazing our band was—which truly says it all!

The Afterparty was such a huge part of what made our wedding so fun and memorable. If having an amazing, packed dance floor is a priority for your wedding, look no further. We would hire them ten times over!

Seriously, the BEST!

I can't even begin to explain how incredible The Afterparty Band was at our event!! We hired them for a 300 person fundraising event and they knocked it out of the park. They were the TOP compliment I heard from the guests about the event and many of them told me that we have to have them back next year! They exceeded expectations in areas that are so important no matter what the event-organization and performance. Tristin was top notch with her communication skills, organization, planning each detail and executing it all the night of the event. I didn't have to worry about making sure the band was following our tight timeline or if they were going to come up on stage when they were supposed to. They nailed it, every single time. I have worked with many live bands during my time planning events and this group stands above all the others I have worked with, both in organization and performance. They were incredibly entertaining for our guests and their unique "mash up" medleys made it so they brought the best of every song without the awkward pauses in between. They have the perfect amount of stage performance, costumes, dances, etc to make it fun and engaging but not cheesy like so many other bands. People couldn't help themselves, everyone wanted to get up and dance! We had ages 20-80 years old on the dance floor having the time of their life because the band is just that good! Their sound engineers were constantly roaming the very large room and adjusting sound to make sure it was top notch in all areas. It made a world of difference in the sound experience for our guests as well. I would tell anyone that is looking for a band to look no further-you WANT AFTERPARTY!! You won't regret it for a second! I'm already looking forward to having them again at our event next year!!

Wedding of my dreams!

We were lucky enough to book The Afterparty for our wedding! The band and the performance was better than we ever could’ve imagined. Our vision for our wedding was to have one giant party where everyone was on the dance floor, and at point I looked around and did not see a single person sitting in their chair- it was a dream come true! They brought the party that everyone is still talking about! I could not recommend them more!

Such a fun band!!!

Highly highly recommended. We loved the Afterparty. They were incredible from start to finish. They had great energy and kept people on the dance floor the entire time. They were professional and easy to work with. They even learned two new songs for our first dances which came out beautifully.

They MC'ed our event too and did a great job at keeping everything running smoothly. So many of our guests have commented about how much they loved the band.

Highly recommended for anyone who wants a high-energy band that your guests will love!!

Best Band in the Biz!

We have had the pleasure of working with the Afterparty Band for several events and they never disappoint. They are so much fun, bring such great energy, and have performances where the party simply doesn’t stop. As an events industry association president, you want to know that the entertainment you have brought on for your event is going to amaze and leave guests wanting more. We know that whenever the afterparty is at the helm that our guests are guaranteed to have an incredible evening. Tristin and the team are very professional, thorough and detailed. Confidence comes in pre-event communication and coordination, and you always know that they are on top of everything. It makes planning a breeze, and the events a success!

Hire the Afterparty Band!

The Afterparty Band was a 11/10! They completely transformed the room with their energy. They kept the crowd engaged with props and costumes and every single person couldn't wait for the next song! They were professional and organized with their planning, and even learned two songs of our choice for the ceremony, to make it extra special. The positive comments about the Afterparty still haven't stopped days later! My only regret is not having them play longer!

A Party Talked About for Days

As a planner in the Greater Seattle Area, I work with a lot of vendors, and The Afterparty Band truly stands out in the best way possible. From the very beginning, their communication was timely, clear, and incredibly thorough — which, as a planner, makes such a huge difference. They were organized, proactive, and always on top of details throughout the entire planning process.

On event day, they absolutely delivered. The energy, hype, and liveliness they bring to a crowd is unmatched. They know how to read the room, keep the momentum going, and turn a great party into an unforgettable one. The dance floor stayed packed, the vibes were high, and guests were talking about the band long after the night ended.

If you’re planning an event and want a band that is professional, fun, high-energy, and an absolute joy to work with, you should 100% hire The Afterparty Band. They are a dream vendor and a guaranteed crowd-pleaser — I can’t wait to work with them again!

Amazing, high-energy band!

I recently worked with The Apterparty for a large corporate event, and I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. They were prompt, communicative, and flexible throughout the planning process, and truly went the extra mile to enhance the overall vibe. During the event, they were an absolute blast—engaging with the crowd and getting everyone into the party mood. Highly recommended, and I will definitely be working with them again in the future! - Senior Event Coordinator, The Ruins, Landmark Event Co
