    Best Band Ever

    If you want everyone to stay on the dance floor until the bitter end, hire Soulville. Everyone at our daughter's wedding kept coming up to us saying they were the best band they had ever heard at a wedding. They didn't just sing and play, they performed and kept the party going. It's unbelievable how talented these people are and you can tell they love what they do. If you want a fun night of great music, hire Soulville. You won't be disappointed.

    Best wedding band ever!

    Soulville (AEN) made our wedding! They had all of our guests up dancing the entire night. After the wedding every guest complimented the band and said how amazing they were. We hired AEN for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception music. The music throughout the ceremony and cocktail hour was beautiful. Glenn is an expert at his job and we took his advice on instrument and music selections, everything turned out better than I could imagine. Ileana was also great to work with, very responsive to all of my questions and put together our music selections and scheduling. This band will bring your wedding to the next level and is worth every dollar. Months later, our guests are still talking about the band and the music. Without a doubt, they are a vendor you must book!

    Best Wedding Band Ever

    We hired the Soulville Band from American Events Network for our wedding and they were everything and more! They had an acoustic guitarist play during cocktail hour, helped to emcee our reception, the live band was amazing and even the DJ that played during the band’s breaks was fantastic. They had all our guests on the dance floor, old, young and everyone in between. We’ve been flooded with compliments about how fun our wedding was and how fantastic this band was. Thank you, AEN and Soulville!

    Love this band!

    One of the most memorable things about our wedding day was how awesome the band was! They got everyone up and dancing all night, mixing the genre's up so that all ages were excited. They played our Hawaiian-esque first dance song beautifully. They were just so fun and so talented! I would absolutely recommend hiring them!

    Best wedding band ever

    The Soulville band is insane! We had about 11 people in the band, including wind instruments during our September wedding at an Orange County country club.

    Not only were my husband and I blown away at the skill sets of each performer, this was hands down the talk of our wedding day from all our guests for weeks to come. No one could believe how talented they all were and not once person was off the dance floor once they started playing. We easily could have danced all night with the band who was incredibly immersive with our crowd.

    Glen & Illeana were our main contacts during the planning process and we were pleased to...

    Best Wedding Band Ever!

    We had the Soulville Band at our wedding on August 3 and we cannot say enough good things about them! They made our reception SO much fun. The dance floor was packed the entire evening. The performers are all so talented and put so much heart and soul into their work. Our guests were all raving about the talent and fun of the band and they are all still talking about it months later! Many guests told us they never dance at weddings but they couldn't help themselves because the band was just that good. Thank you Soulville for making our reception so memorable!

    Party rock is in the house tonight

    Soulville put on an epic performance at our wedding. As a musician myself, I wanted to make sure that we had a band that was comprised of truly professional musicians. From start to finish, Soulville delivered an amazing show for us and all of our guests. One guest, who attends dozens of weddings each year, told us that they did the best hora he had ever heard. In addition, we arranged to have a DJ play for an extra hour at the end of the evening. We were expecting someone to just come and push play on an iPod, but DJ Aylexx did so much more and really closed out our party in the best way possible. Can't say enough good things about this band.

    We hired Soulville to play at our wedding the past August and they were INCREDIBLE! They had everyone on the dance floor the entire time. Super high energy, play all kind of music, and Ileana and Glen were great to work with.

    Simply amazing! We saw Soulville perform at one of our friend's weddings, and knew immediately that we wanted to book them for ours. They put together a package which suited our needs (9 piece band, + DJ for the after party) and were responsive and super helpful throughout the planning process. Definitely call to speak with Glenn!

    We hired Soulville for our wedding, and they absolutely ROCKED IT!! They played a fun mix of Motown/soul, 80s/90s and current hits, managing to keep the energy high and the dance floor packed. Throughout the night, I had multiple guests approach me to comment on how amazing the band was, and to ask where I found them. A huge thank you to Glen and his team for investing time up front to understand our taste and to select 8 performers that would suit our style. Our wedding wouldn't have been half as fun without Soulville, and I cannot thank them enough!

    “We had Soulville perform at our wedding and they were amazing! 1000 stars! They were so easy to work with and my favorite vendors. They handled the string quartet for ceremony and cocktail hour and a Ten piece band for our reception. A+ - If you want the best in wedding entertainment contact American Events Network.

    Professional, Fun and quality!

    Amazing! Soulville and AEN were awesome from booking (the Balboa Bay Club) to the end of the night. They learned songs not on the list for our first dance, which was a very difficult Michael Buble song and performed it flawlessly.
    We are a family of musicians and typically do not dance and we did not get off the dance floor. They are very interactive (in a great way) and even had my Aunt, who is a singer, on stage with the band. My feet hurt for a week.
    Thank you very much AEN. Also, their lighting and sound were great.

    If you are looking for the best band for your wedding look no further you have found them. Soulville from American Events Network ROCKS! We had 250 guests at the Grand Del Mar. This was a wedding packed with music industry professionals and performers. And the sound system had to be state of the art. Glen brought in a concert series sytem and the fidelity was beyond what I expected. Many of our musician friends sat in with the band during the encores and it raised the roof! To get music industry snobs to dance was a huge task and Soulville did it! Since my wedding I have had several emails requesting the bands booking information. There is a...

    The AEN team was exceptional in planning, coordinating and executing the wedding of our dreams. We used AEN for our event coordination, the band Soulville ceremony music, lighting and decor. Our wedding was seamless and everything was planned beautifully to the last detail.
    Soulville and DJ Jus were amazing and had our after party going until 2:00 am. The lighting and sound was breath taking. When my husband and I first saw our reception ballroom, we felt like we had walked into a fantasy. All of our wedding guests raved about every detail. Glen and Ileana are two of the nicest people I have had the pleasure of working with. I couldn't recommend these two and the entire AEN team enough!

    I have used American Events Network for all of my events for the last 10 years. They are the only entertainment company I use because they are the simply the best! They will take a non-dancing crowd and always deliver. If you want the absolute best and the original show dance set book with American Events. Ask for Ileana

    I used Soulville and this band is AMAZING! My husband is latin and so for our party, they added Ileana to cover every genre of music that we wanted at our party. They learned all of the songs that we wanted them to learn and the playlist for the event was amazing. I cannot say enough great things about the band. They will make your party great! They are worth every penny and one of few vendors from my wedding that I recommend. We went overtime with DJ Jus and it was the best.

    These are the experts!

    My wedding was amazing and I have to elaborate on why American Events Network was absolutely the best!

    We hired both a string quartet to play the ceremony and Soulville 10 piece band for the reception. We had half Latin and half Jewish wedding and they arranged several special songs for the ceremony and a difficult first dance that we had choreographed that they played absolutely flawlessly. The band played the best Horah!

    Soulville read our diverse audience to perfection between the 60s, 70's classics that everyone (mostly my parent's friends) loves to dance to and the current hits that all our friends love. It was just amazing how good they are...

    I first experienced Soulville at my friend's wedding in June of 2012 at the Beverly Hills Hotel and they blew me away. Best band I had ever seen at a wedding. Now some two years later my only must-have was Soulville.
    I have seen them three times since and I think I am there biggest fan!
    Soulville is by far the best band you can hire for your wedding and here is why.
    Talent, Service, Fun, Availability, Expertise and Caring.
    Soulville’s talent and professionalism goes beyond the stage.
    Ileana was our coordinator and was just the best to work with, she always got back to me within minutes. They are so friendly, honest and always available...

    We booked American Events Network for our daughter’s wedding and it was first class in every respect. The band brought twelve pieces and they were wonderful. The dance floor was full, and everyone, of all ages had a great time. AEN set up additional music sound systems throughout our venue for the ceremony and cocktail hour that were perfect. It was the best night, very classy and very lively. Soulville Band are not only talented,they are fun.

    "I was the wedding planner for a wedding that Soulville performed at the Grand Del Mar. I have worked with several bands and booking agencies and working with the entire AEN team I have to say they are above the industry standard. The reason is not just their performance was amazing, but the attention to customer service and detail made them so EASY to work with. The crowd raved about the band. They are professional, talented, fun! I can't wait to work with them again!

    They were so easy and professional to work with and helped us create what was the best night of our lives. THANK YOU AEN AND SOULVILLE!

    Thank you American Events and Soulville!
    We first heard Soulville at our friends wedding and we gave them a deposit before we confirmed our venue. If you want to sleep better at night get Glen and AEN on your team. Glen and Ileana were always available for us. My mother wanted to coordinate some of the wedding herself as she used to be in the business and likes to be involved. She loves Glen! He helped her with several demo timelines that fit us and we found a simple and easy pacing solution. The entire process was so much fun.

    Okay the wedding; Soulville’s energy, talent and their sound quality blew us all away. Of course their singers...

    So glad we hired Glen and his artists! They made our wedding incredible. Everyone was raving about them after it was over. My husband and I had a complicated first dance that had to be right on point with the timing and Glen accommodated us by having the band learn it beforehand and even practice live with us before the wedding party! Wouldn't have gotten that service from anyone else. Best choice out there!

    "Soulville and AEN is simply the best! We are so lucky to have not only hired them, but to have used them for all aspects of our wedding. They are incredibly talented, both musically and vocally, but most impressively - they were just as amazing whether playing religious music during our ceremony, jazz music for our cocktail hour, or dance music that brought the house down during the reception. Greg was a brilliant MC, Illeana was a dream to work with, and although we didn't micromanage our set-lists, we were able to craft a style of music for our evening that was simply perfect (Illeana is also an A+ performer as well!)

    We've had numerous, unsolicited kudos from...
