The Best Decision We Made

Brandon and Jackie were the first vendors we booked for our wedding. My wife saw them perform years ago and knew that they would make our wedding very special - and she was 1000% right!

From the first phone call we had with Brandon, we were in amazing hands. He was super interested in finding out what was important to us and what we wanted for our wedding. They send you a thorough Google Doc to fill out your music preferences, including must-plays and don't-plays. That Google Doc really helps organize and drive the conversation when you have your final phone call prior to the wedding. When we got to that call, Brandon and Jackie were so wonderful. So committed to listening to us and making sure they understood our vision for the day.

Day of the wedding - AMAZING. Brandon ran sound for the ceremony and then DJ'd cocktail hour. When you get married, you don't get to participate in cocktail hour, because photos, but we could hear it, and it sounded like a blast. Brandon has a great presence as a DJ and got everyone pumped for wedding party intros and then kept things moving during the toasts and special dances. He's an awesome Emcee!

Once Brandon and Jackie kicked off their band set, the party got started. I got texts from people in the middle of the reception telling me that the music was great. Multiple people pulled me aside to tell me, "This band is AWESOME!" Our guests were up and dancing. It was a PARTY. They played all of the songs we requested and created some special moments for us that we will remember forever. And that was before the DJ set started and they blew the roof off the place in the best way possible. Jackie is SO MUCH FUN on the dance floor! She got everyone involved!

We just could not be happier with our experience with Brandon and Jackie. They're amazing and we will be forever grateful that they made our wedding so special.

Amazing, High-Energy Band for a Great Price!!

Brandon and Jackie set up a pre-meeting with us where we discussed all of the wedding day logistics and genre preferences. This really helped us feel at ease leading up to the wedding day. They performed for our reception and brought the party! They were a super high-energy couple and our guests LOVED them. We would highly recommend them to other couples - our only note, is that we wish we had been more specific on some of the song choices, but ultimately all of the songs they chose were a hit! They were so sweet and made our day extra special and upbeat!!

Fantastic!

What a talented duo! They had the crowd up and dancing and the song selection was so on point. Brandon was super responsive and made sure every t was crossed and i was dotted on their end.
