The best in Buffalo

If you want a band at your wedding, look no further. This band is LIGHTS out!! All I wanted at my wedding was to dance the night away with my people and that is exactly what I did with Big City Horns.

Ben was fantastic to work with! So friendly, always available, and extremely organized! He MC'ed our entire wedding from start to finish. Ben played music for our ceremony, and we had 3 guys from the band play light jazz during our cocktail hour. Every part of this group is amazing. Ben and Maria's vocals are next level! I HIGHLY recommend you have them sign "Shallow" by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper. It was incredible! My guests are still talking about it!
Book Big City Horns. You will NOT regret it!!!!

Thank you guys again for making my wedding everything I dreamt of!!
