BEST wedding band!!
We are so so so happy with our decision to book the Bluewater Kings Band for our recent wedding! To start, we loved that we could preview the band at one of their local showcases in our city. It was such a fun date night during the wedding planning stage, and after seeing them perform, we knew we wanted to book them for our wedding. Our band lead, Jeff, was super communicative and helped us customize our cocktail hour & reception band to suit our vision for the day. Their planning dashboard made it easy to list our special song selections and give the band a sense of the type of music we liked. And they absolutely delivered!!! Our 9-piece band kept the dance floor packed and the energy high all night long. Sending a huge thank you to all of our band members for such a memorable and fun celebration!
So. Much. FUN!
Where to even begin with these guys & gals?!?! BKB made our wedding! In the lead up, Corbin was fantastic in getting to know us to get a feel of musicians to put together just for us. He gave GREAT suggestions and had such an uplifting, positive vibe that was very much appreciated. We were a little uneasy that we couldn't see exactly who "our band" was going to be until go-time, but he really put us at ease in explaining how the process worked and emphasizing how talented ALL of their musicians were. It helped push us over to signing the contract. We did a 7-piece and had the pianist play during our ceremony. They were all so, so talented and just really brought the house down when it came time to open the dance floor up. We've had so many compliments about how amazing the band was since our wedding night, which is exactly what we were aiming for! I was most appreciative that unbeknownst to me, my now husband surprised me with my brother sitting in with the band to play guitar and sing our first dance and the father-daughter dance. It's a memory I will forever cherish. He said that BKB was great to collaborate with "behind my back," and my brother said the musicians were great to work with on the fly. Thank you, BKB, for being such an integral part of our special day!
Absolute jam
The musicians in this band are all high level professionals and extremely talented. Every aspect. Percussion, vocals, bass, keys, horns. Hard to even put words on. The dance floor was pumping all night, packed. Everyone was like, ‘who are these guys?!’. They ripped the place up. Not to mention, super nice people, very professional. Handled our event (announcing speeches, transitions, etc) very smoothly. They are top shelf. Will be booking them again.
Book this Band!
Bluewater Kings Band, provided music and other services for our daughter and son-in-law's wedding in May, 2025. My husband and I appreciated the professionalism, flexibility, and mostly the sounds! that filled the day. The ceremony music enhanced the outdoor setting, ushered in the guests, and provided a perfect entrance and recessional for the wedding party. When the dancing began, the dance floor filled and went strong until the close of the evening. The volume and musicality created a great dance atmosphere and the song selection brought smiles and laughter to the guests. I also appreciated that when the band took much deserved breaks this organization provided music to keep things moving. A huge shout of laughter and joy came from the bride when the band played a song that they had agreed to learn specifically for her. Many people at the wedding commented on how much they enjoyed the band, and several asked for contact information for possible events in the future. The groom first heard the band in Minneapolis and sought them out for his wedding. Highly recommend Bluewater Kings Band
