DJ Phil was hands-down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! He brought the perfect energy and thoughtfulness to every part of our day—from the ceremony audio to the dance floor. The vinyl bar was such a unique and fun touch—our guests absolutely loved flipping through the records and making requests. It created such a personal and nostalgic vibe during cocktail hour. The ceremony audio was crystal clear, and the uplighting added a beautiful ambiance that transformed our venue once the sun went down. DJ Phil read the crowd perfectly and kept everyone dancing all night long. His transitions were seamless, and the music was a perfect mix of what we loved and what got people moving.

Awarded Best of Zola
Words can’t begin to describe how amazing this band was. When we hired them after a recommendation/commendation from another couple who called Blind Date the highlight of their wedding, we thought maybe they were being hyperbolic, but we knew at least the band would be good enough for a good time. Never in my life could I have imagined a band was capable of being as great as they were. From the beautiful jazz dinner set (it felt like I was listening to the jazz greats themselves), to the best two hours of dancing I’ve ever enjoyed in my life, Blind Date blew us away. Every single guest commented on how great they were. They were beyond fantastic and we can’t thank them enough for making our wedding so perfect. They brought us on stage for the MOST electric moments of the whole wedding--I felt like I was doing my own Vegas residency show. The LIGHT setup they bring themselves made the whole thing feel like a rock concert. It was the best day of my entire life and I can't imagine having a different band. I want to become a groupie for this band and start crashing other weddings they're playing at. BOOK THIS BAND! Their set list is PHENOMENAL, they learned a new song for our first dance and BLEW US OUT OF THE WATER with it. Everything was perfect. We're going to be talking about this band for as long as we're talking about our wedding. I am so beyond glad a referral from a couple we trusted turned into booking the best wedding band in the world.
