Re: Wedding Bands, where do i even start
This is probably a silly question but do you mean band (as in music) or band as in to wear on your finger?

Re: Wedding Bands, where do i even start
No problem just didn't want to write a long post and have you looking for something else.I would start by contacting a number of different bands or companies and see when they are showcasing and see if you can get videos or cds to start - then I would go and see any of the bands you are interested in - I think seeing the bands live is the best way to do it - b/c then you can compare them in person -
Here are some popular bands:
I'm using Times Square Orchestra (link to website)
Also check out:
Full House
the Faze 4 Bands
Central Park (steven scott band)
Body Heat
projekt
Franlin Wyne bands
Skyline orchestras bands

Re: Wedding Bands, where do i even start
If you love R&B, Funk, Soul, Jazz, Motown, you may want to call our band, Midnight Magic Orchestra. They are totally awesome and they have a video to view. Also, workable price=wise. They use separate sound technicians and all their musicians are lead vocalists.

Re: Wedding Bands (music), where do i even start
I am using the Projekt-they are incredible! I also liked Paris and Body Heat. You should call and find out when they are showcasing and check them out. Paris and the Projekt are part of Soundcheck Entertainment and I think Body Heat are independent. Good luck, let me know if you need any #'s!
