We offer the talent, versatility and the expertise to transform your special event into a memorable celebration!

When planning your floor plan, the band requests a stage area of 12 x 18, if possible. This is only if you have a choice, if not, don't worry, we will make things fit. To create the best interaction between the band and dancing guests, the dance floor should be directly in front of the band. If the bar and/or sweet table is in another room, it directs guests away from the dance floor as well as making it difficult to communicate the bouquet & garter toss, special dances, and other announcements. If possible, try to keep everyone in the same room. We require at least two dedicated 20 amp circuits.
