Best Band Ever

Booking Live Wire was one of the best decisions we made! They were incredible and the entire reception was a dance party. Every song was better than the next. Nearly every one of our guests came up to us at the end of the night to say Live Wire was the best wedding band they had ever seen.

The best band ever!

We were blown away by Live Wire at our wedding! They had all of our guests out of their seats and dancing the entire night. Our guests could not stop raving about the band and we couldn't agree more. Live Wire performed at my brother's wedding ten years ago and they haven't missed a beat. Anthony was a pleasure to work with, the band learned (SO MANY) new songs for us, and followed our requests exactly. We have lasting memories of entering into the reception with all of our guests standing and waiting to greet us with the perfect music to accompany the occasion! We wholeheartedly recommend Live Wire!

Anthony and his team were amazing to work with. They were very reliable, showed up on time and had the schedule printed/ready to go. I was very impressed how organized their band members were the day of the wedding. The couple was very pleased and I would definitely recommend them to others for weddings/events!

Live Wire is a fantastic band with amazing energy! I would recommend them highly. They had the crowd on the dance floor all night, and the female lead singer was so entertaining and engaged the guests.
