The Brandy Band did a great job at entertaining the guests at our wedding. The dance floor was packed most of the night. The manager Steve was great to work with. He was very friendly, professional, and helped answer all of our questions. I'm also grateful that he told us people usually love the Hava Nagila song regardless of their faith - that song was incredibly fun and practically every guest was up dancing! The band made our wedding incredible and we would suggest the Brandy Band to anybody planning a wedding. People are still talking about how great the band was. They are totally worth it!

Brandy Band played our wedding at the Essex Conference Center & Retreat in September and they were amazing! I will be honest and say I was really pushing for a DJ to save money on the wedding but my husband insisted we have a band and I'm so glad he did! Aside from how happy they were for us, the number one thing that people said to me the day of the wedding was "the band you hired is amazing!" They were incredibly professional, kept the reception flowing properly and got everyone dancing all night. I really can only think of positive things to say!

Simply the best band in Boston! I was thrilled with the performance they gave at my wedding - UNBELIEVABLE! Very diverse, very talented! Steve is the greatest MC you could ever have - everything right on time all night. Steve also DJ's when the band goes on break. Since our wedding, a number of our friends have booked Brandy, so I have been lucky enough to see them in action several times. From the first note to the last note - the dance floor is packed - all night! I can't say enough - these guys are great! Book em now before someone else does!
