Do not hesitate

Our wedding would not have been as amazing had we not gone with Connexion Band. They played at my cousin and my sister’s weddings so I knew they were excellent. But, didn’t realize just how wonderful until our wedding. During the entire process, Ray was extremely easy to work with and very accommodating, they even let my dad sing some songs with them, he was in a wedding band most of his life and he thought they were excellent as well and loved singing with them!

I have gotten so many compliments and people asking for the bands name since our wedding. We chose to trust the band with the playlist and not veto or choose any songs and the dance floor was crowded all night. It was truly amazing, they even kept playing until 5 minutes after the agreed upon time, we loved that they helped us keep the party going, it was so fun!! Connexion band is full of members that are extremely talented, high energy, and ready to put on a great show.

They also provided a guitarist for our ceremony and it really helped to add a special touch and was so beautiful.

Beyond expectations! Thank you Connexion Band!

Can we give Connexion Band more than 5 stars?! Ray and this band of seasoned, talented singers and musicians who have been together for years provided the best music and dance experience! We hoped for a packed Dance floor at our daughter’s wedding and Connexion delivered performances that kept the dance floor full of dancing, singing, pure joy! They learned a special song for us, they honored our requested songs and they performed songs that fit the vibe! They say they perform songs “note for note” and it’s true! Ray mc’d when needed and was so easygoing to work with throughout the year of planning! Hire this band if you want to dance all night, even longer because yes, the guests chanted “one more song” and they played an encore! At a wedding reception! That was a first for us to experience! We are still hearing from our guests… “A-plus”, “the band kept everyone involved”, “it was like a concert”, “they know so many songs”, “is that the new Dua Lipa song”, “so many amazing singers”. I have never felt so strongly about a review….Connexion Band is 5 star plus! Thank you.

Fantastic!

The Connexion Band will absolutely make your event the talk of the town!

We had seen them perform a few times at a fundraiser dinner, so we knew they were good, and therefore had high expectations for them going into our wedding day…they blew through those expectations and made our wedding day absolutely perfect! From the moment we began working with Ray, Connexion was completely focused on making our reception memorable and personalized! The dance floor was so packed, we asked them to play an additional 30 minutes past their set list. Ray, and the entire band, were flexible with every request we had for them (including traveling from Chicago to Columbus), and made planning our reception so easy.

You and your guests will not be disappointed if you book the Connexion Band for your event!
