The best!

Choosing the Big House Band for our wedding reception was one of the easiest decisions we made! We saw them perform a couple songs at a local bar and it was a done deal. Jimi and management were an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the planning process.

On our wedding day, from start to finish, they were absolutely fantastic. The live music was incredible, and they really brought the energy and vibe we were hoping for. A huge highlight was our first dance which we had asked the band to learn—everyone was so amazed by how perfect it sounded that they thought it was a pre-recorded track! The band’s talent and range is unmatched and they had our guests on their feet all night. We received so many compliments on the music (including a few requests for their contact info) and we’re so grateful for how they helped make our day unforgettable. Highly recommend them for anyone looking to elevate their wedding celebration! Thank you for everything Big House Band!!

Fantastic tunes, and true crowd pleasers!

We loved having the Big House Band as our wedding band! We hosted our celebration in our backyard on an 85-degree day in NJ, and despite the heat, the band brought the energy and kept our guests dancing all night long. We loved having two different singers and they did a beautiful rendition of "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea" by Neutral Milk Hotel for our first dance song. It’s not your typical wedding song, but the band was so thoughtful in learning it for us, and the result was absolutely perfect. Everything—first dances, DJ intermission, and keeping the party going—was spot on.. Would highly recommend them for your event! Jimi was so great to work with and has been in the biz for ages, so he knows exactly what you need.

An absolute MUST HAVE at your wedding

If you want your guests on the dance floor all night long you have to hire The Big House Band. Jimi and his band were incredible to work with in preparation for my big day. They learned a few songs for my wedding that gave the day an extra special touch. They also accommodated having someone help with the music during the ceremony and cocktail hour.

Our reception was incredible from start to finish. From our entrance song, to our first dances, The Big House Band was amazing. We had so many people come up to us during and after the wedding saying how great the band was. Still even a month later people keep telling us how much fun they had with The Big House Band.

The band played a variety of songs that had the dance floor packed all night. Jimi adds some flare with his incredible saxophone skills that really elevate the experience. A great wedding should have three things; great food, great company, and a great band. The Big House Band made sure that I could check great band off my list.

If you are getting married you have to consider this band. I promise, you will not be disappointed.

The Best Band in the Land!

Coming from a musical family, it was so important to me that I had a live band for my wedding. In searching for bands, everyone started to sound the same and nobody stood out to me until I came across The Big House Band. From the first few videos I watched online, I knew that they were the band that I was looking for to keep the crowd dancing all night long! Before booking them, my husband and I saw them live and were immediately sold. Every member is so friendly and clearly loves what they are doing. They are also so extremely talented.

Jimi especially was such a pleasure to work with. We had a few calls with him and he was always so helpful and willing to do anything that we wanted. Coming from a Polish background, there are some traditions that we explained to him and he did a fantastic job introducing them.

The dance floor was packed the entire night! From 50s classics to Michael Jackson to Maroon 5 to P!nk, you get every possible genre with the band.

Thank you so much to The Big House Band for making our wedding day the best day ever!
