Fabulous twilight band!

This was our third family wedding with Twilight Entertainment. Mark Phillips and his bandmates were fabulous! They listened to our wishes, helped with timing and announcements, and most importantly, had the dance floor full all night long! the horn section is a must, and the combination of talents was pure magic! Our guests said it was the best wedding band they had ever heard. We agree!

Excellent service from booking to clean up!

Mark was excellent to work with! From start to finish he answered questions and helped us plan our special day. He reassured me that no question was a silly Bride question! His patience and quick responses helped me to have zero worries about our special day! Everything went off perfectly but most importantly both my new husband and I danced the night away to our favorite songs and a few other special requests creating endless memories we will never forget! He not only kept us happy but we received many compliments about the DJ and music. Highly recommend for any size party. Also so happy he traveled to Buffalo without hesitation! It’s hard to find local entertainment for out of town weddings and Mark was willing to go whereever we needed him on our special day. Thanks again for helping me have “The time of My Life” 💕

Unforgettable Wedding Band!

We first saw Twilight Entertainment when we were graciously allowed to peek into a wedding they were playing last year, and we were instantly in awe. We knew right then we had to book them, and they completely exceeded every expectation.

Mark, who manages the band and also performs, was amazing throughout the whole planning process. He was friendly, responsive, and totally on top of everything. He even arranged a special a cappella version of our first dance song so we could hear what it would sound like ahead of time, which was such a thoughtful touch.

On the night of our wedding, they were incredible. So many guests thought our first dance was a recording of the original artist; that’s how good it was. Every song they played was a hit, and the energy on the dance floor never dropped. Nearly everyone we've spoken to since has said it was the best wedding band they've ever seen, and several even asked for their name so they could book them too. Twilight Entertainment made our night unforgettable. Cannot recommend them enough!

Book them!!

We had the pleasure of having Twilight perform at our wedding reception at Knox Farm, and they were nothing short of fantastic! From the moment we reached out to them, Mark was incredibly responsive and professional, making the entire process smooth and stress-free.

On the day of the wedding, Twilight exceeded all our expectations. Their performance was energetic, engaging, and had everyone on the dance floor the entire night. We received countless compliments from our guests, all praising the band's talent and the incredible atmosphere they created. They were even very flexible with some last minute song changes.

If you want your wedding to stand out and ensure a memorable experience for you and your guests, we can't recommend Twilight enough. They truly made our special day even more unforgettable!
