    I’ve been to many weddings and live music absolutely elevates the wedding compared to using a dj. But even amongst live bands, Garuda Blue is just top of the top composed of jazz musicians who all have their own flair and soul to their music. Their music is original and never the same and having them play at our wedding may have been the single best choice. From cocktail hours to dancing, the live instruments and absolutely stunning vocalist makes you really feel like you are at somewhere special. They’re also absolutely professional and kind and personable. I can’t say enough good things about them. Yes if you get a dj it’s cheaper, but you will miss out on a magical night filled with real music and what is life without real music. Don’t hesitate to think if it’s worth it or not because real great live music can transform an ordinary event to a magical one.

  • The best live band!

    Garuda Blue was one of the highlights that made our wedding day so much more memorable and special! Worth the investment! From the very beginning, communication with the band manager, Abe was very easy and he was always very prompt. He listened to what we wanted and what we envisioned our wedding day to be, and took care of the rest. All of the band members were very warm, professional yet down to earth, and extremely talented musicians! Our first dance song we requested was "Lucky by Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat." Having a live band performed this song under the stars was just chef's kiss. Everybody, i mean, EVERYBODY had the best time on the dance floor, singing and belting out songs alongside the main singer. Lots of memories were made on the dance floor, thanks to Garuda Blue. I cannot recommend Garuda Blue highly enough! Thank you for making our wedding day the best day ever!

    Just wow! Garuda Blue was the absolute BEST band we could have asked for. These guys are professional jazz musicians that happen to do weddings and not the cookie cutter wedding bands that happen to do some jazz. Their communication leading up to the wedding was prompt, professional, and concise, which put us at ease throughout the entire planning process. On the day of, their performance was nothing short of exceptional - they played incredible jazz solos and during the dance party they got everyone dancing to top 40 hits. As top-tier jazz musicians with their own original arrangements, they truly elevated our wedding reception and made it a night to remember. We highly recommend Garuda Blue to any couple looking for the best in live music and entertainment for their special day.
