    Highly recommended for your ceremony/reception music!

    I would highly recommend partnering with The Sun Followers for your wedding music needs. They are extremely talented and were so responsive and easy to work with. It was really special to have live music during the ceremony, cocktail hour, first dances and dinner service. We also hired them for dj services and they presented their package options really clearly. Guests commented on how much they loved the music and how special it made the wedding. Ben was really helpful when it came to communicating about our song choices and customizing the length of the songs for our first dances. Overall, I highly recommend The Sun Followers if you’d like to have amazing live music at your wedding!

    Seamless, Beautiful, and Memorable – Thanks to The Sun Followers!

    We couldn't have been happier with The Sun Followers, Ben and Samantha, who performed at our wedding. Their extensive catalog of songs for both our ceremony and cocktail hour set the perfect tone for the day. Not only did they learn a new song for our first dance, but they also took on the role of emceeing, making the entire evening flow effortlessly. Their voices are simply stunning! Beyond their talent, Ben and Samantha were incredibly kind and supportive throughout the planning process, offering encouragement and handling every detail with ease. Working with them was such a breeze, and they truly went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable. We highly recommend The Sun Followers to anyone looking to make their event even more special!

    Best wedding band ever!

    Working with The Sun Followers was one of the best experiences I've ever had working with a vendor. I wanted to surprise my wife with a live band during our private first dance, and they made it happen! They were willing to work with my schedule, budget, and the song I wanted for them to sing on the night of the reception. They really understand what your looking for, and are willing to work with you to help make your big day special. If I had to recommend one of our vendors to anyone, The Sun Followers would be the first on my list. Super professional, caring, kind, and most important of all they want to be a part of your big day to make it more special. Do not hesitate to message them, I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

    Ben and Samantha are amazing. They are not only easy to work with, but they bring a positive energy with them that will enhance your event. Their music is beautiful, fun, and soothing for the soul. I felt so blessed to have them at our rehearsal dinner. They made the event fun and enjoyable for all! Don't think twice, just hire them! You will not regret it!

    The Sun Followers were PERFECT for our wedding. A TOTAL MUST!

    We had the Sun Followers play for our destination wedding. It was a very intimate and personal wedding and they made SUCH a great addition. They were so accommodating in taking the rendition of the songs we wanted and merging them together, so our walk down the aisle was exactly what we wanted. The way their voices blend is magical, and our wedding would not have been the same without them!

    Ben's guitar playing along with Samantha's buttery voice made it almost seem like we were playing recorded music, it was flawless, but the touch of live music as our guests entered and for our ceremony was priceless. The songs they chose to play as our guests walked in, were perfect They asked for a few songs we liked and then based their song list on that feel - and they were perfect. I was in getting ready, and I wanted to just go out, sit, and listen to them play!

    Not that I am planning to get married again - ha! But I would not hesitate to have them play again! They were so responsive and SUPER easy to work with. I would recommend them for ANY event you have. Ceremony, Reception, Cocktail Hour, or something completely not wedding related - they'll rock it all!

    Amazing duo perfect for weddings!!!

    The Sun Followers did the music for our ceremony as well as our cocktail hour and I couldn't have asked for more. Incredibly easy to work with, eager and willing to learn new material, and overall just real delights to work with!! That's not even to mention how WONDERFUL they sound!! Their talent is outstanding and they are just so cute to watch. I highly recommend this duo for any event, and will definitely be looking into them for future events.

    Don't question it, just hire Ben & Samantha!

    If you are looking for live music for your special day, do yourself a favor and hire Ben & Samantha! Don't even question it. Just do it.

    But really, when my husband and I were starting to plan our wedding, we knew we wanted live music. With Covid in the mix, we did not really know how that was going to play out for us. (In the end, it obviously worked out.) But, I had been searching online for hours, when I randomly came across a local news video of a "Singing Telegram Duo." Needless to say, I was intrigued. I preceded to find Ben & Samantha on every social media platform I could think of, and I listened,and watched many videos. I sent them to my husband and he agreed, let's do it.

    The communication process with them was more than spectacular (even if it wasn't on our end, sorry Ben)! Ben responds promptly and answers whatever questions that arise on your end, making you feel comfortable with the process. They also are great listeners and they vision what you vision, even if you aren't able to verbally explain it. We initially did a Zoom call with them to see if we "vibed" and when we hung up, my husband was like, yea, we're doing it. We loved their personalities and just the way they came across. We knew they would fit in great at our wedding with our guests. (And boy, did they.) ;)

    Day of wedding was great; they arrived, set up, got ready, everything without any problems! (If there was, I didn't hear about them. I think that is how it's supposed to go though, anyways.) They provided the music, the sound equipment, the fun, the dancing, the smiles and everything else that comes with a wedding. They had our guests dancing well into the evening, which is EXACTLY what we had asked for. Oh, and we threw a crazy wrench at them with asking them to learn a song that they had never heard before for our first dance. And HOLY SHIT, they NAILED it. Like seriously, it was awesome. We couldn't have been happier with our decision to hire them and feel so fortunate that they said yes to our wedding. They just felt like old friends that we were lucky enough to join in on the fun. And afterward, we feel that we gained a new lifelong friendship.

    Honestly, like I said, don't question it, just hire Ben & Samantha!

    Love ya guys!

    Sam and Ben are the Best!!!

    Hands down The Bidwells are some of the best humans on the planet! Sam and Ben helped us every step of the way, learned some new songs just for us, and made sure everything was perfect! They truly love to perform and are extremely good at it! Thank you Sam and Ben for being so professional, fun and for making our day so special!

    Beyond all expectations!

    From the moment I reached out to Ben from The Bidwells, I was beyond amazed at the genuine kindness and excitement for playing out small during our small wedding ceremony and through dinner. He was quick to respond, and always ready and willing to jump on anything to help make our big day special. He was easy to work with, and they were great about learning songs that were requested. They were fantastic about working with and communicating with our venues events manager so that on the day of the wedding I had no worries. Aside just the amazing customer service expired, their performance was just perfect. Every single one of my guests made a point to tell my husband and I how much they loved the musicians. I honestly believe, had we not had The Bidwells perform and gone with our original planned D.J. our wedding would not have been as special. The postive energy this duo bring to the table was truly wonderful. Ben was kind enough to act as an MC, and helped keep the night moving forward with no pressure or sense of urgency, (which for this mellow bride was very appreciative). While they are based out of Chico, they were happy to make the two hour drive to our venue, and still managed to more affordable then our originallly planned D.J. and they even surprised my husband and I with a wedding gift of band shirts, (which
    is so comfy, and rocks their awesome logo!) Honestly and truly The Bidwells went above and beyond, and blew all my expectations out of the water. They made our day perfect.

    The perfect musical duo for your perfect day!

    Ben and Samantha performed at our wedding in San Diego on 9/9/17. They provided our ceremony music and we couldn't have asked for a better musical experience! Our wedding was set at a Hawaiian themed venue on the bay and at the last minute Ben decided to use a ukulele instead of a guitar and it was magical! It fit the venue and vibe so perfectly, it really brought it all together and Samantha's vocals, as always were stunning. Our wedding planner, who is local to San Diego asked for their contact information as she was so impressed and wanted to put them on her preferred vender list. Since then, I have also had friend reach out asking what songs we used since for the ceremony so it clearly made a lasting impression on everyone there. If you want to make your big day even more personal and intimate, do not hesitate to book these two. You won't be disappointed!

    Once in a Lifetime Experience

    Ben and Sam’s music created the wedding of our dreams. Their voices created a sound track and experience for our wedding I thought only happened in the movies. They know how to perform hundreds of songs for anyone’s taste. At cocktail hour they put on a show that mesmerized our guests! They were truly the best part of our wedding and created memories for a lifetime.
