Amazing Band, Whole Crowd LOVED them!

TVK Orchestra was the best decision my husband and I made for our entire wedding. Their professionalism, communication, swiftness at responding, and most importantly, their talent was unbelievable. The setlist they performed was amazing, and they even learned my favorite song "Seven Bridges Road" by the Eagles. I had guests tell me they sounded exactly like the Eagles too. I would rate them 1000/10 if I could! Book them for sure!

Best Band in Chicago Area!

Working with TVK was pretty easy! They were professional, but also super delivered with their music. It was certainly a splurge, but 100% worth it. Music is very important to my husband and me, so we also added a trumpet player. TVK played several Taylor Swift requests and also some fun songs that got the whole floor dancing (and I mean the WHOLE floor). I recommend them to anyone needing a band for their wedding in the Chicago area!!

10/10 Recommend

Our entire experience working with TVK was smooth from start to finish. As far as vendors are concerned, TVK was by far the most responsive and communicative and this was hugely important since we didn't have a wedding planner. They completely understood our vision and really executed everything that was important to us on our wedding day. The guests were SO impressed with the quality of the musicians and vocalists and they really kept everyone dancing all night long. We would absolutely hire TVK again and recommend them without any hesitation!
