Brandywine Valley Talent

Thank you does not even begin to do Jellyroll justice for going above and beyond in every aspect of my wedding. It was truly a night that my husband and I (and all of our guests) will never forget. About 2/3 of our wedding guests were from out of town and they could not stop complimenting us on Jellyroll throughout the night.

From the wonderful dinner music, to getting everyone on the dance floor for 2+ hours, it was incredible.

Jellyroll worked with me on making my father-daughter dance extra special. My father is disabled and they made sure that the song was shortened to the perfect length, so that he could stand and sway with me for the song. There was not a dry eye in the house. They were amazing professionals and easy to work with from day one. As many others will say, if you want to have the best reception hire...

To all brides and grooms- do yourself and your wedding a favor...book JELLYROLL! You will be so, so glad that you did.
They were incredible! We don't live in the area, so we had seen videos online and spoken to other people, but never saw them live before our wedding night. We were pretty confident they'd be great, but understandably a little nervous. I am happy to report that we were blown away. They were amazing!!
The singers' voices were outstanding. They were by far the best we've heard at any event we've been to and even better than in the videos we saw of them online. The band is so professional. They really know how to work the room and build up momentum as the party goes on. The dance floor was crowded the whole night and everyone had such a good time. We had picked a mix of current and older songs using the song selector, and they incorporated a lot of them very smoothly. I usually think it sounds cheesy when wedding bands do current songs because it is never as good as the original, but Jellyroll was able to pull them off very convincingly and sounded amazing.
We couldn't have been happier with their performance. People have been raving about them for weeks now. A huge thank you to Jellyroll for making our wedding such a...

STRANGERS - STRANGERS - STRANGERS

“THAT WAS THE BEST WEDDING BAND EVER!!!” We’ve gotten pretty used to hearing that from everyone who attended our wedding. And it is exactly what we were looking for when it came to the most important part of our reception - the music. From the cocktail hour to the final song, the Strangers provided an atmosphere that made our night truly something to remember!

We had such a wonderful experience with these guys, and gals, during our wedding. The entire process from beginning to end was professional and laid back, all at the same time. We built such a wonderful rapport with Denny and felt so comfortable! When they gave us a huge selection of music to choose from, we had no idea what we would do, but somehow narrowed it down to 80 songs. Then after a casual final meeting, we gave our absolute favorites and left the rest up to them. That was the best decision we could have made! They used our suggestions and created the perfect playlist to get our guests moving, shaking and dancing way past the last song. The icing on the cake was running into them at the bar afterwards and feeling like they were part of our group!

You truly cannot find a better band to make your day unforgettable.

We had Jellyroll perform at our wedding. They were amazing and kept the dance floor filled all night! People are still raving about their performance. Kurt is a great guy and very easy to work with. We highly recommend Jellyroll to anyone looking for an outstanding band and a great party!

This is the first time I ever took the time to write a review for anything! I had such a great experience from beginning to end working with Midnight Hour that I just had to share it with others who are searching for a band.
Look no further, Midnight Hour will ensure that your guests have a great time at your event and you will definitely have a packed dance floor! I had the privilege of having Midnight Hour play at my wedding this past September. During our first dance as husband and wife I had to keep glancing at the band to make sure they were really singing and it wasn’t a recording because they sounded that good! It was incredible and one of the best moments of our wedding day.
Shavin is so professional and organized. He had a timeline created for the entire reception so that we utilized every minute! A wedding goes by so fast so you want to make sure you enjoy it and aren’t stressing about what comes next. Midnight hour orchestrated the night so well and made sure everyone was on the dance floor and having a great time! They won’t get “too” involved which I was worried about, they know it’s about you and your guests and they will see what music the crowd is responding to and will cater to them.
I have people tell me that our wedding was the best wedding they ever attended. I even had people say they weren’t a fan of having a band at a wedding until they heard Midnight Hour at our wedding. You can see that each member of the band is passionate about what they do and they put the effort into making your event special. Joanne the female signer is so talented as well, it seems like she can sing just about anything, she is awesome! They really don’t even compare to other bands out there. If you are searching for a band for your wedding or event, choose Midnight hour, you will not be disappointed! I can honestly say choosing Midnight Hour was the best decision we made for our wedding!

My husband and I had Big Ric Rising from BVT bands perform at our wedding last month and they were AMAZING!!!! I honestly can not say enough about how great they were!!! The band leader Big Ric, was extremely professional and helpful from day one and worked his hardest to make sure that the day was perfect for us! Music was one of our biggest concerns and I truly believe that our wedding would not have been the same if it was not for Big Ric Rising. From the minute they announced the bridal party, our 300 guests did not get off the dance floor the whole night, and most importantly neither did my husband and I. Each and every member of Big Ric sounded so amazing, and every song was memorable. By the end of the night they seemed like family!! We've had many guests call to ask for their information to hire Big Ric for future events. Everyone should check out Big Ric Rising, you will not be disappointed. I can't wait to have another party to plan and have them come back and play for us!

We had CONTAGIOUS at our daughter's wedding in Church Creek MD last Saturday. Our Son in Law's Mom and Dad hired them. They were without question... THE BEST BAND we have ever experienced at a wedding reception! Not just us.... EVERYONE WAS SAYING IT!! The dance floor was filled to capacity the entire night! They read our crowd and kept them going...and going.... and going!! Their sound is awesome!! Their friendly, approachable manner was perfect for our fun loving crowd. They knew what to play next each and every moment. They never ever lost the mood!! They had fun with our guests and our guests LOVED it! I am hearing from many of them...."Best band ever"!!! In my opinion...if you want non stop dancing at your affair?? You cannot go wrong with Doc and the fabulous members of CONTAGIOUS!

I hired The Strangers for my wedding and it was probably the best part of the night!!! The were amazing, I wish I could give them 10 stars. Denny is so easy to work with and fun!! They did everything I asked and had some great ideas. They had everyone dancing from the few kids to grandmothers. My guests wanted to know where I got them from and a newly engaged couple even asked if I minded if they looked into them. I sincerely hope they do, anywhere The Strangers go, fun is guaranteed. Do yourself a favor and hire them!

Many thanks to the "Strangers" for providing us with a fabulous wedding! The music was incredible and they managed to keep everyone dancing all night long. Our guests had a blast and I continued to receive compliments all night long on how great the band was! We left the music up to them and they knew exactly what to play for our diverse crowd to keep them on the dance floor and havig fun! They played great music during the cocktail music and during the dining time and then made it obvious that it was time to party! My guests are still calling me and commenting on how much fun the wedding was an how great this band was! And many thanks to Denny...he interacted with the crowd to make it a really fun night. They are extremely talented...we saw them perform several times before the wedding and will continue to follow them - when they perform it is always a great time. Many thanks to this talened band for making our wedding night so successful. When the wedding ended all of our guests were still dancing...no one left early which is a testament to how great the band was!

WOW! Back2Life...are Energetic, Spectacular, and Fantastic instrumentalists! Their music touched our guests from the first beat. Guests were on the dance floor from one song to the next. If you're looking for talent to rock your night away...you need to have Back2Life perform for you. Top songs from the 70,80,90s to current ones that lift spirits. Our wedding was a military wedding representing all branches of the service and they out performed our expectations. Don't look anymore...they are what you want and need. We are definately hiring them again...and we can't wait! They truly bring soldiers Back2Life from the stresses of deployment.

simply amazing. almost everyone at our wedding could not stop talking about how great this band was. they played everything and had everyone moving all night. you can not miss with this band.

Jellyroll was a huge hit at our wedding reception. Everyone was up dancing the whole evening and had a great time. So many guests told us that they were the best band they have ever heard play at a wedding. We also enjoyed working with Kurt during the planning process. He was such a joy to work with and was always so kind to us. We knew from the beginning that we were so lucky to have Jellyroll perform at our wedding.

Jellyroll was fantastic and exceeded all of our expectations. They were easy to work with and made our wedding so special. Our guests are still talking about how great the band was and it's been over a month since our wedding. My husband and I prioritized the band as one of the most important aspects for our wedding and checked out loads of bands. Once we were recommended to check out Jellyroll we were sold and looked no further. They played all of the songs we requested and learned 2 songs just for our wedding. If you go with them you won't be disappointed.

Dear Shavin & The Midnight Hour Band,

Katelyn and I can not thank you enough for the EXTRAORDINARY performance that you guys delivered on our wedding night 6/30 @ The Waterworks. We could not have wished for a better sounding, more entertaining or more professional band. EVERYONE loved you guys! I can not tell you how many compliments we got about the band, but to put it modestly, there were too many to count. You guys made the difference in taking our wedding night from good to GREAT.

Our families and friends are critical when it comes to rating bands and their performances, with that being said that you guys get a PERFECT 10! A few of our guests commented that you guys sounded so good and professional that many times throughout the night they thought that the actual recordings of the songs were being played, that is how much you nailed EVERY song! We can not thank you enough for making our wedding night the best and most fun night of our lives. Everyone danced ALL night long and EVERYONE couldn't get enough of The Midnight Hour Band!

Lastly, Shavin was a GREAT band leader to deal with. He accommodated our EVERY request and made our wedding night more special than we ever could have expected.

Thanks again for being such an AWESOME band. We would recommend The Midnight Hour Band to anyone and everyone for any occasion, wedding or otherwise.

Best regards,

Brian & Katelyn Borden

Rudy Bishop of Bounce was a real joy to work with. We share a passion for great music. He knows how to make a wedding reception a memorable event. I have received many complements on how good the music was! Yor guests will be very impressed!

Jellyroll put on an incredible performance for us & Kurt was very kind/responsive throughout the wedding prep!

I can't imagine a better wedding band. They put on an amazing party for us. Our guests were shouting for another song when the party stopped.

Back2Life has performed at two weddings for our family. Their talent and interaction with guests is exceptional...filled with energy and warmth! We loved them, our guests loved them and we still hear frequent compliments about the music and band members' personalities. We highly recommend this group. Back2Life connected with guests and managed to engage everyone, from children to grandparents. Our favorite memory was to see the joy-filled fun on a packed dance floor.

The Stangers are by far the best band BVT has to offer! The night was incredible and Denny and his gang kept the dance floor packed all night. They were a pleasure to work with and made our day unforgettable. Thank you BVT, The Strangers, and Denny for helping to create even more magic on our wedding day.

Dave at Brandywine was a pleasure to work with. With his help we selected a DJ/Live mix which included a 3 piece jazz band to play during the ceremony and reception cocktail hour/dinner with a DJ to play during the party section of the evening. Tony from the band was easy to work with and even learned some new songs for our ceremony. DJ Bob was very professional and worked with our music preferences and was set up very early. He was classy and gave a wedding worthy performance not like a bat mitzvah (thought I am sure he could change his performance for an event like that). Overall we had a great time with the group and would contact then again in the future for our music needs.
Many Thanks!

Book this band! From the moment we met them at an expo in King of Prussia, it was obvious that these guys are professionals. Denny and Rick seemed to have every detail covered, and guaranteed a night we would never forget. Not only that, everyone we met in the band was so extremely nice, and they were all excited to talk to us about our upcoming wedding. They certainly delivered, and just as Denny promised, every guest we talked to said it was the best wedding they've ever been to. The music was tight, the song selection was perfect, the sound/volume was well-monitored, and the dancing never stopped. We highly recommend the Strangers to anyone who is looking for a band that will keep you on your feet all night and will have you consider planning another party just to have them play it.

We had Jellyroll for our wedding. They were AMAZING! We had seen them perform at other weddings (including the bride's brother), and absolutely had to have them at our wedding. They exceeded our lofty expectations, and our guests raved about how amazing they were.

We would recommend Jellyroll to anyone who is looking to have fun and dance the night away at their event.

We had Contagious play at our wedding and they did an incredible job!! They are so much fun and energetic!! The dance floor was packed at all times! We had so many guests rave over the band. One couple even booked them for their wedding!!

When we booked our band, Strangers, for our wedding on May 12, 2012, we never imagined how great they would make our celebration. A few weeks before the wedding with met the band director who really helped us plan the timing of the events at the reception. Their music, energy and presence truly made are day great. Everyone, including my 86 year old Grandfather danced the entire night. Strangers, thank you so much for such a great day! Mike and Joan Devine

Hands down…the best band in Philadelphia. We attended a wedding with Jellyroll about a year before we got engaged and decided then and there that we HAD to have them. They were our 2nd call (venue was #1) after getting engaged and lucky for us, we just got to experience (and see!) them again in July at a friend's wedding.They can play anything and everything and will learn songs for you, too - they learned our first dance song, for example. I loved how interactive they were with our guests - from serenading family members to jumping up and down with us in the crowd. Besides talented, I also found them extremely easy to work with. Kurt is the main contact and also the trombonist. They helped manage the transitions of our evening schedule and flawlessly pulled off a “surprise” dance with my father. Also, a little thing, but they asked us about our wedding colors and then the men all wore vests to coordinate. A little touch, but really nice.Lastly, despite doing multiple weddings / events a week (I’d guess a minimum of 3), they seem to truly enjoy themselves and are incredibly humble. I wish we could throw another party and have them again.

JellyRoll was simply amazing. They kept the party going all night! If you aren't sure who to choose, don't hesitate to just hire them! We hired them based on recommendations from across the country and were not disappointed that we did. Everyone I worked with at Brandywine and in the band, were so nice and helpful. I could tell that they all wanted to make it an incredible night for us. People are still telling us how amazing the music was and our wedding was a month ago! From the song selections to the flow to their performance, everything was spot on. They exceeded our expectations and everyone was on the dance floor all night! If you are looking for an incredibly talented band and to party all night, don't look elsewhere!

Excellent professional service. Easy to work with and very accomadating. Contagious was so much fun, everyone danced all night long. They learned our wedding song and entrance songs. Doc was awesome to work with and so easy going. Anyone looking to have a fun dancing wedding should consider Contagious. I could not be happier with my choice in Contagious.

We booked the band, Back2Life, for our daughter's wedding in Dec 2011. Very timely in their information and planning for the event. Their sound is exceptional and all the vocalists were terrific. The band knew what to play and when. Guests were on the dance floor the entire time. We have received great comments from numerous guests ranging in age from 35 - 80 on how much they enjoyed the music, and we are still receiving comments over a month later. Back2Life made the reception a party to remember.

The band was fantastic, and our crowd had a GREAT time. They even learned a song in a certain style for the mother-son dance. They made the party!

This band was AWESOME....no one sat down the entire night! It was so much fun....the band played their heart out! I am so glad we had them at my daughters wedding and I would strongly recommend them but only if you want to have a really good time!!!!

Back 2 Life made my reception so memorable. People were on the dancefloor all night and had the best time. They made every dance so special and out guests still talk about the fun they had!

If you want the best entertainment - you book Jellyroll! The rocked our reception from the beginning to the very end and EVERYONE is STILL talking about it! Kurt is very easygoing and easy to work with.
Also - the keyboardist, Dave Dettra - did an amazing job playing music for our reception. Great group to work...

Big Ric was fantastic at our wedding and I would recommend him in a heartbeat. Everyone was dancing the entire time - not one person I spoke with even sat down for dessert because they were having such a great time. Big Ric has an amazing voice and after the wedding everyone was commenting on how energetic he was and how they were the best band they had ever seen at a wedding. Thank you Big Ric for an unforgettable evening!!

It was a pleasure to work with Brandywine Valley Talent through the process of planning our wedding. They were always very responsive and friendly. When we began looking into wedding bands, a few people told us to check out a local band called Midnight Hour. We attended one of BVT's showcases in King of Prussia and had such a fun time seeing all of the bands and getting to speak with the bandleader of Midnight Hour, Shavin. That night sealed the deal for us and we booked Midnight Hour immediately! They are such a talented and friendly group of people, and we just knew they'd do a wonderful job for us. We coordinated all of our details and requests with Shavin and he was so professional and fun to work with; we felt completely at ease and were confident he and the band would give us great music. Our venue had a unique setup, as the reception was taking place in multiple rooms, and Shavin worked with our venue to ensure everything was setup perfectly. Midnight Hour played the most beautiful songs on piano/sax for our cocktail hour that everyone was already raving about them and asking where we found them! They did an awesome job of introducing the bridal party to special songs we requested, and Shavin did an amazing job singing 'In My Life' for our first dance. After dinner, the party really got started and it never slowed down!!! We love music and really wanted our band and the dancing to be the focal point of the entire reception....and we definitely got our wish! The band played the best songs, performed everything to perfection, and kept the dancefloor packed the entire night!! Every guest at our wedding declared Midnight Hour the "best wedding band ever", and we agree 100%. Midnight Hour is just an incredible band. They are so much fun, and they know how to keep a party rolling. We had high expectations and they completely blew us away. It has now been 2 weeks since our wedding and everyone is still talking about the band and what a fun party it was. They even surprised me by learning one of my favorite songs. I can't say enough good things about this band. If you want to have a wedding to remember, do yourself a favor and book Midnight Hour immediately! They are simply the best.

We are thrilled with our choice to book Back2Life for our wedding band. Starting with their set list, Back2Life offers a wide range of music appropriate for all ages, and got all of our guests moving. Once the wedding came closer, we went to dinner with Kurt to go over every last detail, which was a nice added touch. Our wedding was on October 29, 2011, the day of the unexpected snow storm. This made everyone (including us) late for just about everything, but the band was more than willing to work with us in adjusting their play time to accommodate our late start even though they were on time. Many of our guests told us that our event was the best they had ever attended, and attributed this to the band. People still talk about it when they see us! While the price was a bit more than we wanted to spend, it was the best money we spent throughout the entire process, and we wouldn't change a thing. Thank you to Kurt and Back2Life for making our reception an outstanding part of a day we'll never forget.

Strangers band kept the dance floor packed all night long. Denny (Band Leader) works with you to make the night go smoothly, it’s the prep work beforehand that makes you feel like a superstar & go out have fun! We received numerous compliments on how great the band sounded “The perfect volume” “Played a wide range of music” “Great Horn Section” “Awesome Singers” Strangers also provided the ceremony & cocktail hour music so you need not look any further for your musical needs.

Back2Life exceeded my expectations. Before the wedding, any question I had was promptly answered and every request I had was fulfilled. Their performance was high energy and they kept everyone the dance floor packed all night! I couldn't believe how many people danced from the time dinner ended until the reception was completely over. Phenomenal when covering Lady Gaga and Katy Perry while keeping the older crowd happy with some select goodies that are sure to please all. Choosing Back2Life was by far the best decision I made when planning our wedding. I highly recommend them!! - Carly

Jellyroll is by far the best band!! Our guests were dancing the entire night! They have been so incredible since day one. Kurt-the band leader is awesome and extremely helpful. We love Jellyroll and can't wait to see them play again at our friends wedding in May!!

We chose Group Therapy to play at our wedding without seeing them in person. Yes it was very optimistic of us, but it worked out! They learned 2 songs for us and those were great. The bandleader was pretty responsive, took me a while to hear back from him, but he followed through. We received so many compliments of the band at our wedding. Guests thought it was the best wedding ever, the best music ever, etc. They played a great mix of songs. Honestly, I've never seen people dance between courses at dinner. Everything was wonderful.

The only areas to improve are the fact that I was supposed to throw the bouquet and that never happened. I also requested songs to be played during their break and they did not have them. So I (yes the bride) ran got my iPod to play a few "rap" songs.

Jellyroll did an absolutely phenomenal job at our wedding! They came highly recommended and certainly did not dissapoint. Not only was the music fantastic at the reception, but they also played during the ceremony and cocktail hour. They also were a big help in controlling the flow of the night and are true professionals through and through. they will accomodate any request and will learn any song that you ask them to. Hire Jellyroll today!!

Contagious Dance Band put an exclamation point on our already wonderful wedding. They are by far the best wedding band I've ever seen, I consider myself so lucky to have had them play at our wedding. I've received so many complements on the band. The most common text/email I've gotten reads: "Best. Wedding Band. EVER" - I couldn't agree more. It was nothing short of superb. Thanks again!

Back 2 Life was AMAZING at our wedding! Kurt was extremely helpful in planning the order of the night and super flexible when we wanted them to play a softer version of Sweet Child of Mine for our father/daughter dance. It was perfect. The dance floor was filled alllllll night! I recommend this band 100% if you want a wedding people people will remember!

Jellyroll is absolutely amazing. I first saw them play a few years ago at a friend's wedding and knew it was absolutely essential to hire them for our wedding. They are so good at keeping the crowd on the dance floor laughing, singing, and dancing the whole night!! Our guests are still talking about how great our band was and how much fun they had dancing!! Not only are they extremely talented and entertaining, but they were wonderful to work with. Kurt made sure that anything I wanted was taken care of and gave me complete confidence that there was nothing I'd need to worry about. The band even coordinated everything with my reception venue so that the introductions, special dances, toasts, cake-cutting, etc all went perfectly. I can't say enough good things about Jellyroll...they are THE best!

I can't count the number of guests who have complimented us on our band selection. Sid and his entire staff and band were fun, professional and respectful even of some silly family traditions. We would recommend them highly.

Sid Miller Dance Band was amazing! I am so happy that we could have them at our wedding. Everything about the night was amazing, but they topped it off.

Review music selection well ahead of the wedding.

JellyRoll was absolutely amazing! They were great to work with before the wedding and were a blast the day of! I have never seen that many people rush the dance floor as the band begins to play. They never stopped and entertained guests of all ages - we received numerous inquiries about where we had found this band from guests all over the US. They were the perfect band for us and made the celebration what it was!

Big Ric and his group were, in a word, stellar. My wife and I expected music and a little help announcing when people should sit, who should dance when, etc. What we got was a true entertainer and leader in Ric with a group of professional and tremendously talented musicians backing him up.

With a group of 150 people, it is all too common that many of them get bored, get antsy, and end up leaving. The band was playing almost throughout the entire ceremony, and there were precious few moments when there was no one on the dance floor enjoying the music. Very few people left before 10:00pm, including the more aged among us who usually get to sleep before 9:00. I was astonished!

Big Ric was thorough in his preparation, making sure he had the order of events, the pronunciation of names, and all the other details of the evening exactly how my wife and I wanted them, and that took a tremendous amount of pressure off of us to make sure people were in the right places at the right time.

All of the comments we got after the wedding were, "Oh my goodness, that was incredible!" or, "mate, that whole night was brilliant!" While our planning had something to do with that, Big Ric and his group were the ones that made the whole thing happen. I've already convinced my sister to request Big Ric Rising for her own wedding, which will be in the near future, and she loved the idea. Anyone who asks me for a band or emcee for their wedding is only getting one suggestion from me: "Check out Big Ric Rising, from Brandywine Valley Talent."

We were so lucky to book Jellyroll for our wedding in September 2011. They kept everyone dancing all night and made everything run smoothly. The talent of the band is so incredible that everyone kept coming up to us to say what an amazing band they are. They were a pleasure to work with and were incredibly responsive. If they are free for your date, book them!

WOW. City Rhythm really wow-ed EVERYONE at our wedding. Not only do they have an amazing sound, but they really get everyone up dancing. They prepared songs we requested and really knocked us all off our feet. When Our father daughter song played, it brought my father to tears.

Thanks guys!!!!!

BVT was so simple to work with and everything went so smoothly!

MOST AMAZING BAND AVAILABLE. They made our wedding and we continue to hear how great they were from all of our guests. Kurt was wonderful to work with. Don't look anywhere else.

Midnight hour was awesome! They had everyone dancing all night. They truly made the evening perfect. Everyone loved them! I would recommend Midnight Hour and BTV Entertainment to anyone. Thank you for making our wedding so special!!!

This band was like having your friends being able to pickup instruments and play any song you wanted to hear. When we were selecting what songs we wanted to have played at the reception this band went all out to play our selections. They brought an energy to the reception that made all of our guests get up and dance. They went above what we ever thought a band would bring to our evening. They played for a 5 hour reception while only taking an half hour break. The only downfall to this band was after they were done everybody was exhausted including my wife....Thank You Back to Life..We owe you a drink..Dan and Janel.

The Sid Miller Band exceeded our expectations. Sid is a true professional. It was obvious that his goal was to provide the ultimate experience for our family, especially the new bride and groom. Our friends and family danced the night away. It was the night of Hurricane Irene and everyone stayed until the very end. Everyone in the band, musicians and singers were exceptional.

Excellent musicians , great entertainers and the they kept everyone moving all night. Great job guys, thanks!

Jellyroll played for our August wedding at the Bellevue and they were simply fantastic!!! From the moment the announcements started until their final song--a great rendition of "Proud Mary" that brought everyone to the dance floor one last time--Jellyroll was on their game and had the crowd on their feet all night. Kurt, the bandleader, was so easy to work with and attentive throughout the night. So many guests--both young and old--commented on the quality of the music. Jellyroll was worth every penny!

On a final note, the "Party Rock Anthem" was a welcome suprise that had all of our friends dancing!

Jellyroll was absolutely amazing! They made sure to make the evening exactly what we wanted, by spending tons of time coordinating with us before hand. They were extremely easy to work with and were happy to learn new songs for us. At our wedding the dance floor was packed for the entire evening. Our guests are still talking about how amazing they were!

Contagious was AMAZING!! Doc was so great to work with. We have had so many wedding guests tell us how fabulous our band was and that our band was the best they had ever heard at a wedding. Our guests are still talking about it! The dance floor was packed all night!! We could not have asked for a better experience! My very best friend just confirmed Contagious for her wedding after she saw them in action! Can’t wait to party with them again next year!

Contagious was AMAZING!! Our guest could not stop talking about how great the music was and how little time the band was on break! Doc was incredibly responsive and easy to work with. I have highly recommended Contagious to everyone I know who is engaged. Except the people who were at our wedding. They heard for themselves! We really couldn't have asked for a better time. Contagious made the celebration what it was.

Back2Life is an amazing band who really made our wedding one of those most memorable and cherished experiences of our lives! They are extremely talented, and they really know how to get the crowd moving and grooving! Kurt and Marci are so professional and flexible. They are always willing to try out a new song or change up the course of the evening.
Numerous guests kept asking where we found the band and remarked how incredibly gifted and talented they are. Their version of the Jewish Horah was one of the best we have ever encountered. We strongly recommend Back2Life to anyone and everyone who is having some type of event!!!!!

City Rhythm did a fabulous job at our daughter's July 2011 wedding in New York. Each band member is amazingly talented, and the range and diversity the band is capable of cannot be beat. Pete was fantastic to work with, totally accommodating, and he even was able to find the school songs for both Yale and Dartmouth, and the entire band played the songs as all the kids' college friends came onto the dance floor for special photos. Anything we asked (like the couple's first dance and the father/daughter and mother/son dances...etc) was handled with style and was well-prepared. Every song the kids requested was played and sang in a great way. Pete was terrific at keeping things moving along in an easygoing but timely manner! The wedding ceremony musicians added a beautiful serenity and grace to the proceedings, and the cocktail hour trio provided a lively atmosphere for our amazing event overlooking the NYC skyline as the sun set. City Rhythm truly reflected the rhythm of our city (even though they came up from Philadelphia)! and helped contribute to making our daughter's wedding one of the happiest weddings anyone there had ever attended (I'm not just saying that - that's what people told me afterwards)! I would recommend this excellent, professional and superb band to anyone who wants to throw a fun and truly memorable event!

We just loved our band. We had more comments from our guests how great they were. It was obvious to those who attended since the dance floor was full most of the time. A band can make or break a reception. This group made ours a huge success! Thanks!!!

I had Midnight Hour band play at my wedding, and I am so very very happy with my choice. They were absolutely amazing. Shavin, the band-leader, was great to work with. They really paid attention to what we wanted, especially when making decisions about the time of our reception, and they just exactly what things work and made everything flow just perfectly. They were amazing to listen, they played all the the songs that we had requested, and there was not a moment of downtime at our weddding. Everyone was up and dancing and it was just such a great time! We really recommend this band to anyone and think for a good time, it's well worth the price!

Thank you Jellyroll for making our special day AMAZINGGGG! Kurt was an absolute joy to work with throughout the wedding process and am so glad we went with JellyRoll for our big day!

Simply the best! I'm so glad we could book them. Our guests were dancing all night!

Couldn't have done better. According to all of our guests and family Midnight Hour was superb. Most of all, my wife and my daughter (Bride) were delighted.

Wow! Contagious is an amazing band! All of our friends and family are still talking about how wonderful the band was. From the very first song, until the very last, our dance floor was full of people. Doc had an amazing way of getting our guests up and dancing. They were extremely easy to work with. I would definitely recommend this band for anyone looking to have a great, fun-filled party.

Contagious did an excellant job at our wedding. Everyone loved the way they kept the party going. I would recommend them ro anyone interested in having a great time.

City Rhythm did a GREAT job for us! Very professional - we didn't have to worry about a thing. Everyone at the wedding thought they were great - and had a very wide range of music to perform! Would highly recommend them.

Brandywine Valley Talent has a number of entertainment options to choose from. We had Contagious play at our wedding and hands down they are one of the best party bands in the area. The dancefloor was NEVER empty as they play a wide range of great music that everyone loves!!
"Doc" the band leader is the best to work - he is SO much fun and high energy! The band learned a number of specific requests for us including our intro song, first dane song, bride and father dance song and groom and mother dance song.
People are still talking about how awesome they were!

Strangers was our band for our November 13, 2010 wedding at the Montrose Mansion (Villanova Conference Center). Denny was so reponsive to my questions and requests and was awesome to work with. The band was absolutely fabulous and made our wedding reception more fun than we ever imagined. Our guests are still raving about how awesome the band was and people want to know how we found you. I will definitely recommend Strangers and Brandywine Valley Talent to other brides We had so much fun dancing and we didn't want the night to end. I have never seen a dance floor so packed at a wedding. Everyone was up dancing the entire time.

Denny and the Strangers band learned the songs we requested especially our First Dance Song "You Are the Best Thing" and the Father/Daughter Dance Song "King of the World". They both sounded AMAZING!!!! We also loved our reception introduction..."Rock this Town". The band definitely "rocked the evening". They made our reception so fun and memorable. The band knew I was a singer so they allowed to sing the last song with the band. The Amanda and Amanda duo for "Livin on a Prayer" was excellent. The definitely fulfilled my secret dream of singing with a band. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!

The band that we used for our wedding was City Rhythm through Brandywine Valley Talent. They were AWESOME!!! They did an amazing job of playing a very diverse selection of music. They can do everything from classics to modern day. Pete, the band leader was very professional and easy to work with.

Our wedding band was Back2Life, who are part of Brandywine Valley Talent. We knew they were a great band, but Back2Life far exceeded our expectations. They learned 3 songs for us, which we are so grateful for. Throughout the receptions, guests were asking us the band's name and wanting to know where they could see them again. If you want to dance all night to the music of wonderful singers and musicians, this band is for you!

We had a blast with Jellyroll!

Our first interactions with Kurt were great - very responsive and professional. We felt comfortable with him from the start.

They have a great worksheet for you to complete before the wedding with all requests, names and timing.

They were flexible at the wedding - and even surprised us both with a special song, not on their usual playlists.

And of course, the music, the band, the singers were all phenomenal. We have awesome pictures of the lead singers serenading the guests, dancing with bridesmaids, and me on stage with the tambourine!

We hired Brandywine Valley Talent's "Midnight Hour" to play at our reception. I was amazed by the variety of music they played. All of our guests, regardless of age, complimented their selections. They kept people on the dancefloor consistently through the evening, and were open to surprises... oddly enough, they even ad libbed music for a swordfight staged on the dance floor! Pepper and all the staff at BVT were helpful and professional, and I know a number of our guests asked for their information for future events. Highly recommended.

Midnight Hour played at our wedding at Congress Hall in Cape May, NJ, and they were AMAZING! We had a wonderful time and we've received so many compliments about our band. From the planning phase to our wedding day, Midnight Hour was such a pleasure to work with, and they were very flexible and willing to learn new songs for us. It is very rare to attend a wedding where everyone, from all age groups, is on the dance floor from beginning to end, and our wedding was the exception - everyone was dancing all night! We were laughing at some of our crazy song requests, and we were in awe when Midnight Hour performed each song to perfection. In addition to their incredible talent, they were so professional and kept our reception right on schedule, from the introduction of the bridal party to prompting us when it was time for the speeches and cake cutting. Do not hesitate to book Midnight Hour - they were wonderful!

We used The Midnight Hour for our rehearsal and they were absolutely amazing!! Everyone at the reception raved about them. We knew they were the best after they played at our two brothers' weddings a few years prior. They were very easy to work with. Our wedding "splurge" was getting a band because we knew this particular band would literally make our reception amazingly fun. They had everyone on the dance floor and even learned three songs for us (and one of the was a Neil Young song and people though it was a CD - they're that good!) We would recommend them to everyone!

City Rhythm was GREAT. We had seen them at another wedding we were at last year so we knew they were good and they did not disappoint. Everyone was up dancing and having a great time. They do a great job reading the audience and taking it up or down as appropriate. Peter is fantastic to deal with!

Our band was STRANGERS. They were amazing! All our guests commented on how great they were and we were extremely happy with them. Everyone had a great time and they were worth every penny! Highly recommended!

Midnight Hour made our reception a dream come true!

Back 2 Life was definitely the highlight of our reception. We had guests telling us they had more fun at our wedding than their own, due mostly in part to the fantastic band. Leading up to the wedding, Brandywine Valley Talent and Kurt from Back 2 Life were easy to work with and extremely helpful. They asked for a lot of our input before preparing the set list and were also willing to learn quite a few new songs for us for our first dance, parent dances, etc. - they rocked all of them. They were fun, entertaining and amazingly talented. I would hire them again in a heartbeat!

The Midnight Hour MADE our reception. All of our guests said they were the best band they had ever heard. They had great instincts as to what to play when. People were dancing the entire reception -- to the point where we could only great our guests on the dance floor.

I was fortunate to get a sneak peek of City Rhythm at my brother's wedding 6 years ago, so I knew they would be fantastic. Many people have told us that our wedding was the most fun they had ever been to because the band was so awesome. And they are classy - they will be very respectful of your "do not play" list and they keep the crowd in mind when choosing their songs.

Also, before your wedding you can go through a huge list of songs and rate them 1-5 stars. This is a good way to get thinking about exactly what type of music you would like. I couldn't be happier with City Rhythm.

They were the best band! From the moment we were announced into the reception, everyone was on their feet. They engaged the entire crowd for the whole night. They listended to all of our requests from the very beginning and did not play anything at all that we had on our "do not play list." My husband and I were on stage singing and dancing with them at one point and they were having as much fun with us as we were with them. They have very strong musical talents too. All the songs we asked them to learn were such a hit, that they are putting them in their line-up now!

Jellyroll was GREAT! I would recommend them to anyone. They are a little expensive but worth every penny. The band leader is really easy to work with and they have a fantastic sound.

Party music and THEN SOME! I can’t believe how much fun this band was. We never stopped dancing – fast slow and everything in between.

We had The Quake perform at our reception and let me just tell you that this band puts on an amazing performance! They are truly the best!!!! It’s been over a month and we still have people telling us how wonderful the band was and how they had such a great time. I don’t think anyone sat down the whole night! Our guests were dancing until the very end of the night! Kudos to The Quake - the best band in all of Philadelphia!

The Sid Miller Dance Band was exceptional in all respects -- music, style, personality, connection with the guests! They're expensive but worth every penny. The contact information above is for Brandywine Valley Talent which handles the contracts. Mother-of-the-Bride.

All I can say is AMAZING!! Jellyroll was the best band we could have asked for. I don't think people even sat down to eat. I cannot recommend them enough, worth every single penny!

We had Sid Miller Dance Band at our wedding and they were AMAZING! Guests didn't leave the dance floor all night!!!

We had Jellyroll, BVT's largest band. They were AWESOME and made our wedding what it was. They set the stage for an unbelievable night from their first song. They learned 2 songs for us to dance to... our bridal party song and mother/son dance.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

They gusy were awesome!! Theylearend a few songs that we rquested and even let us play and sing with the band ( we are musicians)! They kept everyone dancing the entire night!

We used the band Contagious. They were unbelievable!!!!

The band was fabulous. My only disappointment was the father/daughter song. While BVT claims their bands will do any song request, it was clear that the singer was not interested in the song I selected. I was very upset during the song - especially when my father said "What song is this supposed to be?" Very embarrassing.

But the songs on their list... Jellyroll has down cold! They are great!

Always a pleasure to work with these guys! They rock!

Brandywine Valley Talent exceeds my highest expectations time and time again. BVT's bands are made up of the most talented musicians in the industry. Each of it's bands produces a unique sound, which suits the many different musical tastes out there. Working with these bands over the years, I have gotten to know all of the wonderful musicians that make up the BVT bands. Not only are they talented musically, but they exemplify top notch professionalism and entertainment. BVT is the way to go!

I was recently at a wedding that featured Brandywine Vally Talent and they were amazing! Kept guests on their feet dancing all night with both classics and new music...very entertaining and would recommend to any of my clients for future events!

Excellent group to work with. We highly recommend them. They represent some of the best bands in the area.

The bands of Brandywine Valley Talent are always a pleasure to work with. The band leaders know how to work the room and everyone is always having a great time. They are always on time and very professional as well.
