The best decision we made

We can’t recommend the Hot 8 highly enough. They put on an incredible show and made our wedding a party that our guests still remark on.

Our guests included many people who had never been to New Orleans before. We wanted to make sure they got to experience a brass band on their trip and Hot 8 over delivered. It was the highlight of many of their weekends. There was also a strong contingent of New Orleanians there who remarked on our wedding being the most fun they had been to in their own city. This is in large part due to the Hot 8’s performance.

If you want a band to take requests and play the same songs you hear at every wedding, this might not be right for you. However, if you are a fan of great music and are looking to give your guests a once-in-lifetime evening with a legitimately world-class, Grammy winning musical act performing just for them, look no further. We don’t think you’ll regret it.

They offer incredible value for what they will bring in terms of professionalism, performance, and energy. They were very easy to work with, showed up on time, led a second line between our dinner venue and party venue a few blocks away, and then proceeded to blow us and all of our guests away for 3 hours.

Hiring the Hot 8 was unquestionably one of the best decisions we made in wedding planning.
