Allison and her Band recently played for our dinner reception at our wedding. It was such a special day for my husband and I, we enjoyed ourselves so much that day and it truly was because of not only all the wonderful people that were in attendance but also Allison and her Band who did such a wonderful job creating the ambiance that we were looking for. Allison is truly a talent and it was just such a perfect fit to have her and her band playing during our dinner. The choices in songs along with Allison's amazing vocals made it such a time to remember.

We had a wonderful experience with Alli & the Cats. Allison is very professional and is always willing to help. She pays attention to every detail, making sure everything is perfect on the wedding day.
Alli & the Cats played at the ceremony and reception and were the key to the success of our wedding. All of our guests loved the trio performance and the world music they played (Jazz, Bossa nova and a Japanese song !). Allison sang a special song at the ceremony and learned our first dance song, making our wedding much more special.

Alli & the Cats are awesome!!! They are incredibly talented musicians that bring a sophisticated, elegant vibe to any wedding. Being wedding photographers, we hear A LOT of music at weddings and always love hearing them play. Jen & I have even gone to see them at live gigs when we aren't working so we can dance!

Killer band, super fun! We never get to stay for the big party, but we know that Alli & The Cats is jammin and getting people on the dance floor...more important than any other aspect of the wedding, we think.
