    Amazing band! Best ever!

    RUN don't walk to hire this band! They were AMAZING! Literally I truly believe if you have a good band you'll have a good wedding and this band exceeded all expectations. I am an extremely picky person when it comes to music, we searched high and low for a perfect band and we found it! We planned our wedding in CT from LA and the entire time Nanci was super communicative (the manager of the band) and we were able to discuss our needs and wants. They were amazing. We could not be happier with the way our wedding reception went! They are overall the BEST band ever! We received so many compliments during and after our wedding reception and everyone was on the dance floor thanks to them! They are on top of everything and really know how to get the party started! I could not recommend this band more, overall I would give them 1000 stars if I could! Highly, highly recommend!

    747 ORCHESTRA's reply:

    Thank you for the awesome review, Grace! You and Kevin sure know how to throw a party! When you hire a band with a 42 year history and a 700 song list, from memory, the result is what you had Saturday. Your guests never left the dance floor and that is what 747 ORCHESTRA is known for. It was a delight working with you and I hope to see you at another party soon.
    I wish you both a life filled with supreme happiness and lots of love. Xo Nanci (bandleader).

    What a night!

    747 Orchestra was absolutely INCREDIBLE!! Our wedding was on May 8, and it was one of the first weddings of the season since COVID, so we weren't sure how comfortable people would be on the dance floor. The SECOND the band started playing at our wedding, EVERYONE was on the dance floor with the biggest smiles on their faces. They kept us dancing ALL night long, and if it wasn't for the noise ordinance at my venue, we could have extended them for another 45 minutes set! They had SUCH amazing energy and kept it going the entire time. Nanci was incredible band leader, and was fully responsive and easy to work with. She knows her band incredibly well and we trusted her suggestions, and they did NOT disappoint. If you want the party going all night at your wedding or event, you HAVE to book 747 Orchestra!!! They are truly the BEST!!

    This band is it. Seriously - look no further. They are such talented musicians and really know how to get the crowd going. I am a music lover and therefore have high standards, 747 exceeded my expectations. Professional, great energy, funky tunes - you won't be able to sit down.

    Anyone who attended our daughter's wedding will be talking about "the band" 747 Orchestra for months to come. No Hollywood movie star could have a band as amazing as this orchestra. They are in a league of their own. The energy 747 brought to the party was through the roof! From the horn section and unbelievable singers, to the outstanding drummer with the cool sunglasses, I can tell you that your guests will be in awe. We loved when the band's singers and horns came out onto the dance floor and played and sang directly to the bride and groom and everyone dancing! The music the band played kept the dance floor packed. All our guests were dancing and singing to every song the band played. It was like the room and party took on a life of it's own. The best way I can describe the experience is "surreal." The talent and the incredible hard work of 747 Orchestra helped to make our daughter's wedding a night we will never forget. 747 you have our eternal gratitude and we will be recommending you to all our friends, acquaintances and colleagues who are planning celebrations. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

    UNBELIEVABLE!!! If you are considering a band for your wedding, 747 Orchestra is a no-brainer. Their level of skill and professionalism is off the chart. The dance floor was packed all night. Two months later, it's still all anyone talks about. Amazing does not begin to describe how good they were. Nanci Silver, the band leader, was fantastic. She did everything we wanted and then some. We only wished they could play for another 5 hours. They made an incredible wedding unforgettable. Thank you 747.

    Best band ever!!! The professionalism alone is fantastic. The music is amazing! We had the pleasure of attending a wedding with 747 and knew we had to have them for our own. you will not be disappointed. The dance floor was packed the whole night. We received compliments from every guest about the band and how fantastic they were, how fun they were and how amazing their song selections were. They made our first dance so memorable. Each song was better than the last. Truly amazing and worth every penny! I would absolutely recommend 747 to anyone looking to have a fabulous dance party!

    Incredibly talented band. Booking 747 was definitely the best decision we made for our wedding! Our guests are still talking about how great 747 orchestra was at our wedding. Everyone danced the entire night (young and old). Highly recommend!

    We chose 747 Orchestra to provide our ceremony, cocktail and reception music. I can tell you they certainly lived up to their reputation and more! My guests were on the dance floor all evening. Their singers, musicians and energy was first class and to sum 747 Orchestra up in one word_SENSATIONAL!!

    When we selected 747 Orchestra for our wedding last month it was because we saw them at 4 of our friends' weddings. This band is beyond AMAZING!! We left most of the song selection up to them because they know how to make a party happen and ours certainly did! They have a very long history providing dance music and it is easy to see why! Thank you 747 Orchestra and we will see you in a few months as we are guests at yet another wedding

    We heard amazing things about 747 Orchestra and booked them for our wedding in March. They are, hands down, THE most awesome band ever!! The musicians are so cool and their songs and arrangements were the bomb. Our guests did not stop dancing so we had to stay another half hour, but man, was it ever worth it! If you are fortunate enough to have 747 Orchestra for your wedding, you are in the best possible hands. :)

    747 Orchestra was a delight to work with before our wedding and made our wedding day the best ever. Easy to see why they are around for 29 years. The music they played and the professionalism, expertise and energy was better than any band we have ever seen

    747 Orchestra was our dream band come true. If you're looking for an engaging, high energy, interactive motown band with the ability to play newer hits as well - this is it! Nanci, the manager and bandleader, worked in partnership with our venue, our DJ, our events coordinator and the kitchen to deliver a seamless experience that flowed without interruption and brought our vision to life. She ensured seamless production of our reception, and despite her initial reservations, entertained and implemented our crazy ideas. Nanci is a true professional and will get into the extreme details to ensure that nothing is missed.

    The band is out of this world. People are still talking about the night 2 months later. The floor was packed the entire evening.

    747 Orchestra provided music and entertainment for our wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, and did a phenomenal job! Our priority was to ensure that the dance floor was packed all reception long, and 747 delivered! We are lovers of R&B, soul, and funk, so 747's style fit us perfectly. In addition, they provided beautiful classical and jazz music during the ceremony and reception. Several guests contacted us after our wedding solely to compliment the awesome band. We had a fantastic and fun night and never left the dance floor. Working with Nanci, the 747 Orchestra band leader, was a pleasure. She is professional, thoughtful, responsive, and kind.

    The 747 Orchestra was the apex of entertainment at my wedding. They were hands-down absolutely amazing. The band members were so great - as they sing and perform they also dance with the guests, truly giving an up close and intimate experience between the performers and the dancers. I'm confident my guests will always remember MY wedding because my band was so damn fantastic. There wasn't a single person sitting down - everyone had a great time listening to great music and dancing their feet off.

    We were thrilled with the band and overall experience of working with 747 Orchestra. The music was fantastic. They really know how to get everyone on the dance floor and keep them there.

    My only hesitation for not giving 5 star ratings across the board was the band manager's refusal to work with our day-of coordinator and some inflexibility on song selection. Everything ended up working out wonderfully, but there were a couple of tense conversations.

    The band was one of the very best parts of our wedding. The band was very professional - and extremely fun! People were up dancing the whole night long, from the very first song to the last. Our friends and family (of ALL ages) raved about the music.

    The only challenges we had were negotiating with the band leader about song selections.

    The best band around. Everybody at my event loved the band. Well dressed for the occasion. Good music and band members were friendly and got on the dance floor with guest. They really helped with the success of event.

    Only downside minor working conflict between band and caterer.

    747 ORCHESTRA's reply:

    I noticed your guests were beginning to leave the party and the cake had not been cut. I,in good faith, went over to your caterer and brought this to his attention, but he didn't seem to care-if you recall, there was so much cake left, it was offered to the band members. This was well after the main course was finished, and 747 Orchestra had all your guests dancing, as your photos evidence on our Facebook page - 747 Orchestra.
    It was wonderful planning the music for your anniversary party, Cheryl, and I wish you and your husband many more years of happiness.
