Emerald Empire Band is AWESOME because there are so many choices of instruments and artists. We worked with the producer, Ward, who made great song suggestions and we were able to stay within our budget. The #1 priority for our wedding was a super fun and energetic band with a variety of songs that all ages would enjoy. Ward made this happen! Guests of all ages were out dancing during the ENTIRE reception. My uncle said he couldn't remember the last time he danced so much! Guests sang & danced until the very end. There was a perfect mix of songs & energy for our crowd. We had so many guests and staff at the wedding come up to us saying that was the most fun they've ever had at a wedding. They couldn't believe the enthusiasm of the band. On a side note, they were also very timely and professional. We couldn't have asked for anything better!

DJ Demarkus and DeTayls Entertainment was a perfect DJ and emcee for our wedding. The communication was rapid and he had a great organizational app that kept us on track leading up to the big day. The Djing was better than I could've imagined - DJ Demarkus was extremely organized upfront, provided a fantastic emcee who hit all the important cues, and made amazing song choices that kept our dance floor alive all night long.

Don’t trust uncle Jerry with the aux cord and Spotify playlist. Your big day deserves better. Your wedding is a celebration of your love, and the beginning of creating a life together with the person you love most. It is critical that you entrust it to a professional who will take the time and care to craft an experience that is impossible to forget. With me, above and beyond is an understatement. Music is my life, and it is such a massive honor to be able to provide the soundtrack to one of the biggest days of your life.
