Kept the party going all night long!

It was a pleasure working with The Charleston Wedding Band as our wedding dj's! They made it super easy for me and were extremely responsive to my requests. Set up was a breeze, and they played great tunes off the custom playlists I provided, and took an audience request for a traditional Italian folk song! Great experience all around. Dan was a trooper! The lights and fog machine were an added bonus. Thanks for keeping the party going strong!

The Charleston Wedding Band is truly a must have if you want to have an amazing reception. The band is SO very talented. They are professional, easy going, and get everyone on the dance floor. They are flexible and have different packages available in order to make your day work for you. If music is important to you on your big day I highly recommend The Charleston Wedding Band!
