Great band, so much fun

We received so many complements on how fun our wedding was because of the band. I was nervous to hire a band instead of a DJ because I had personally never been to a wedding with a band. But the risk was so worth it. Everyone we talk to that was at the wedding mentions how great our band was. People even asked me the next day for the band name. It was also a great thing for people who don't want to dance, because they can still enjoy the music. Communication was great throughout my planning process, I asked many random questions here and there and received answers very fast.
