Daughter’s wedding
From our first conversation with Christine at Black, White, & Steel, we knew we had found the right band for our daughter's wedding. When the venue told us the night before the ceremony that they couldn't provide a microphone for our Pastor, one quick phone call to Christine she said I got you covered. This was not part of their deal. The prelude music set such a gorgeous tone for the ceremony, and every song they played that evening was exactly what we'd hoped for. Christine and Allida communicated with us in a clear, straightforward way throughout the whole planning process, and their dedication to getting every detail right really showed. If you're looking for professionals, that will create a beautiful atmosphere and actually care about making your celebration special, don't pass on Black, White, & Steel.
