  Love these guys!!

  I had Laissez Foure play at my 30th birthday bash a few years ago in Washington, DC, and I loved them so much I had to have them for our wedding too! There isn't enough good things to say about Ken and the rest of the band. We had an outdoor wedding at an arboretum, and it poured rain all day. I had Ken on an email chain with my bridal party and officiant and such, to send updates on the agenda for the day, etc. In one email, I asked my bridal party to bring their spouses early to the venue, if possible, to help set some things up... and Ken responded, offering to come early and help set up himself! They were very flexible in dealing with the bad weather, and of course played absolutely beautifully. I love them and their music so much, I'll have to find another big event to celebrate so I can have them play for us again!

  Great music that added a classy touch as our our guests arrived before our ceremony and enjoyed a cocktail afterwards. I love the classic jazz sound and it felt like we were transported back to another era. Ken is a great showman to boot. The band was very flexible and accommodating to all of our requests.

  We hired Laissez Foure to perform during our wedding reception in early June. Their music is so fun to dance to and is also great music to set the atmosphere throughout the event. My parents saw Laissez Foure at a friend's wedding and recommended that we go see them play. We are so glad we did! They were extremely accommodating and responsive. During the reception, we did not have a rigid timeline, and they were flexible when we wanted to do the toasts and first dance. We received so many compliments from guests that loved the feel of the reception; a lot of that we owe to Laissez Foure!
  Thank you all!!!

  Laissez Foure's music is irresistible. They had everybody young and old on their feet dancing at our daughter's wedding reception. We even ended up doing a big conga line. So much fun. They graciously accompanied one of the bride's friends who sang "At Last," and we all couldn't imagine better music for a great, memorable party. NP, Vienna, VA

  Ken Matthew is not only a musician but a friend & coworker. A band wasn't part of our original plan or budget, but when I took my now husband & my mother to hear Ken & his band play my mom was the first to be hooked. I was so glad - she was right! They made our wedding special, interesting, and SO MUCH fun. Our friends and family LOVED them - they would be a great choice for your wedding too. They traveled to our site in Shenandoah National park and were an excellent fit for our ceremony & reception.

  Dan and I saw Laissez Foure last winter at the Cajun Experience, a restaurant in Leesburg. We happened to be out early searching for dinner and the band was just setting up and starting to play. The restaurant was pretty empty, the tables all had candles, we were seated right at the band's feet, and it seemed like they played just for us. I even called my Mom in Florida to tell her about it and the singer took the phone and sang right to her. It was a moment in time that we will never forget. At one point when the band took a break, I jokingly looked over at Dan and said, "is this where you ask me to marry you?" Dan got a little red in the face, we all laughed, and that was it. Little did I know that my engagement ring, passed down from his Grandmother, was in the shop being worked on. It was the perfect set up and he didn't have it in his pocket... When we finally did get engaged, we knew we had to have Laissez Foure play at our wedding. Ken was a real pleasure to work with; very accommodating, flexible and helpful, not to mention talented! We had them play the outdoor ceremony (in record-breaking heat!), the indoor cocktail hour, and two hours through dinner. They easily set up and played in three different locations at the venue and then Ken surprised us by doing a sax solo at our table. We can’t say enough good things about this band. Our guests loved them! The music is fun and romantic, the band members are personable, and they were so professional and easy-to-work with. They made our wedding truly unique and special, thank you!

  Laissez Foure was a great choice for our wedding. They play New Orleans style jazz that is meant to make you get up and dance. Instead of doing a traditional father/daughter dance, my dad and I wanted to sing the Jobim classic The Waters of March together. Even though it isn't their normal genre, Ken wrote out an accompaniment for each of the instruments and even allowed us to have a couple of rehearsals when my dad got to town. The song went perfectly and the guests loved it! Ken did a great job serving as an impromptu MC too. Later on in the evening when we figured out that the groomsman forgot the song for the mother/son dance, Ken sprang into action before most people even knew what was happening. They were very professional and the groom and I ended up staying to dance longer than we had planned. Great job, Laissez Foure!
