The Best Band in the Land
Bluewater Kings Band is the epitome of a wedding band. Having a live band at our wedding was something we didn't think twice about and BWK fit the bill completely. We went with a 7 piece band which included a sax & brass player, two vocalist (Male & Female), guitar, bass, drums, & keys and the night turned out perfect. We are still getting guests tell us how amazing they were! When I pictured a band for our wedding day, it was them getting involved and getting to people to dance and BWK did just that. We have a tradition in my family to do a conga line during weddings and the Sax & Brass player both joined in the line while playing. I remember seeing that and saying to my husband, this is exactly what I imagined when wanting to have a wedding band. We highly recommend for them to play at your wedding or event!!

Can’t recommend enough!
We had an amazing experience working with Bluewater Kings Band for our wedding. Joseph was a breeze to work with from start to finish, and their planning page made everything simple and straightforward. They asked all the important questions ahead of time, so setup on the day went off without any hiccups. During the reception, the band brought vibrant energy and knew exactly how to get our guests excited and on the dance floor. Their communication was responsive and easy throughout the whole process, which made the planning side stress-free. We couldn't have asked for a better choice and highly recommend them to any couple looking for a band that delivers fun and professionalism.

Our wedding band was absolutely incredible. The full 10-piece group brought so much energy, and their sound was truly next-level—everything felt polished, vibrant, and fun. They did an amazing job reading the room and keeping the dance floor packed all night, seamlessly adjusting the vibe as the evening went on. Their MC presence was perfect—engaging without ever being over the top—and their DJ sets during breaks were spot-on, with songs that fit our style exactly and kept the momentum going. On top of everything, their pricing was so reasonable. We honestly couldn’t believe we were able to have such a large, high-quality band for the price—it felt like an incredible value. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. 10/10 would recommend!

A vendor choice you will not regret!
Cannot recommend enough! The group we had for our April 2026 wedding in Cincinnati,Oh was absolutely incredible. We had guests come up to us all night about how great the band was, and we did not leave the dance floor ourselves! The team is super professional and easy to work with, and pricing was super reasonable. 11/10!

Amazing!
We found Bluewater Kings through the preferred vendor list at our venue , and we are so glad we did. They invited us to come hear them play at a live showcase, and we were immediately sold. We booked them that same night. One of the best parts of working with them was the planning process. Their online planning portal made it so easy to update our preferences and make adjustments in the months leading up to the wedding. Molly was incredibly helpful and always quick to respond to any questions we had, which made everything feel seamless and organized. We also used their “iPad DJ” option so we could customize our cocktail hour and dinner playlists, along with a few songs during the band’s breaks. It was the perfect balance of adding our own personal touches while still trusting them to play what they know keeps the energy up. The band itself was amazing. They were so talented, brought great energy, and kept the dance floor packed all night. They really paid attention to the vibe we wanted and delivered exactly that. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and we would absolutely recommend them for your wedding.
