GRAND AVENUE BAND

We were extremely pleased with our band, Grand Avenue, at our September wedding. We had originally tried to book a larger and more expensive group, and Grand Avenue was our Plan B after the original fell through. They were a fraction of the price of our original band, and so amazing! The guests were always on the dance floor, because Grand Ave knew exactly which songs to play and in which order. They did a great job of playing modern hits (such as Lady Gaga), and were lively, exuberant, and overall very fun! Our guests mostly talked about the band after the fact. Amazing band and even better value.

I just wanted to let you know that we absolutely LOVED the Grand Avenue Band! They worked with us during the whole "booking" process and made sure to understand what we wanted. They gave us their personal contact information so that we could call them with anything! At our wedding, they were very professional, respectful and above all FUN!! We had more a family wedding and they kept everyone on the dance floor. During their break when pre-recorded music was playing, the two female singers were down on the dance floor leading the Cha-Cha Slide and dancing with our guests! We heard nothing but wonderful compliments from our family and friends. I would HIGHLY recommend Grand Avenue Band!!

Thank you again for everything!

Hiring the Grand Avenue Band for my wedding was definitely one of the best decisions we made in wedding planning. They were fantastic... Professional and adapted to play to the crowd. We had so many compliments on the band and they certainly made the night all the more memorable and so much fun!

I cannot say enough good things about The Grand Avenue Band. All of our wedding guests are still raving about how fantastic they were. Our dance floor was packed all night long! They were very attentive to our "do not play" list, and did a perfect job with all of the introductions and announcements. You definitely cannot go wrong with this band.

They were so much fun! They knew exactly what to play based on the crowds response- I heard from everyone at my wedding that they thought the band was fantastic.

We loved Grand Avenue Band. They are so talented and have an awesome range of music. Our dance floor was packed all night. They played our few must-plays in perfect sequence with some other requested songs. Helene was SOOO fabulous to work with, so nice, got back to us so quickly, was so helpful. The band was professional, has several attire choices to match your decor and does an excellent job. They completely ROCKED.

The band was great. They do a fabulous job and are fun. Looking back, we may have gone with a DJ if we had to do it again. Bands are more expensive and we're not sure it was worth it. They did travel all the way from Buffalo from Cleveland and then had to drive to Michigan the day after. So they are a hardworking group and do a great job but it is a lot of money for one night!

Grand Avenue Band was a huge for our wedding reception. They kept the dance floor packed the entire evening. We have all been to weddings where people are being shy about getting out to dance. Grand Avenue kept the party going all night long... definitely book them for you next event!

If I could give more than five stars for this band I would. All of my guests were BLOWN AWAY by their music. They had such a great mix of classics and newer stuff too. The female lead singer could transform her voice from any range to Etta James, to Fergie and even Shakira. They guys were spot on as well. I was a little taken back by the price, but taking into consideration the fact that they came from Cleveland and how amazing they were, I'd have paid double what I did. If they knew the song, they would play it for us. They even had us fill out a questionnaire about what type of music we liked and things they shouldn't play and they nailed it. A++

They accommodated all of my needs. They were so helpful in picking the right band for my wedding. We actually picked two! We used Rumplestiltskin and Carmellina, an italian folk band. People still ask me about them. The dance floor was packed the entire time. It was awesome.

WOW. They were awesome. Still to this day, and it's been a while, people remember THAT band. They were high energy and classy and kept the guests dancing all night. Several of my friends used Grand Avenue over the past years and I was impressed every single time. Can't wait for the next one of my friends to get married.

We just attended a friend's wedding and the Grand Avenue band played. They are still AWESOME, great energy, fantastic vocalists. Just as I remember them. Today, more than ever I give them a thubms up!!

I have worked a few weddings with Grand Avenue Band and I'm always excited when I get the chance to work with them! They are quite amazing and so fantastic! The music is amazing but beyond that EVERYONE - including the usual suspects that never dance - is on the floor and having the time of their lives! They have great energy and sound amazing, and I'm quite picky about music!
