Amazing and Entertaining!

Blair and the band brought the heat to my client's wedding. From the moment they took the stage, It was non stop entertainment and the dance floor was packed all night. This group is more than just a band, it's a true performance and show that will leave your guests dancing all night long.

Best Wedding Dance Party

Blair and Universal Crush had our wedding party dancing from song #1! Our friends all commented on how great the party was with UC. Blair was great to work with and listened to what we wanted unlike other bands we interviewed that only wanted to do “their thing”. You will be happy you chose Universal Crush

Best. Wedding. Band. Ever.

We knew before our wedding day that Universal Crush were incredibly talented and looked super fun based on their amazing video reels. We knew they were kind, fun and easy to work with based on our initial conversations with Blair leading up to our wedding. However, nothing could have prepared us for how insanely amazing they are live! It just cannot be overstated...everything about their performance is absolutely incredible! The energy, the talent, the wardrobe changes, the stage presence...it is literally impossible to believe that any other wedding band could match them. They were SOOO amazing that our guests all screamed for an encore at the end of the night. I've NEVER seen that happen at a wedding before, but it happened at ours...and was totally warranted. After the wedding, we got lots of compliments on the food and how fun the day was overall, but the most common thing people said to us was, "Oh my God. That wedding band...!" My husband and I even hung out for a few minutes after our reception when the guests left the ballroom to thank Universal Crush again and tell them how much we love them. It was truly a sensational performance! Now we're just left trying to figure out how we might see them perform again...and we're not above crashing someone else's wedding to do it!
