    Perfect Wedding / Event Band

    Emerald Empire Band was the best vendor choice for our daughter’s wedding! Their communication for an entire year before the event, their professional relationship, and their work to make the music perfect made for a perfect wedding reception. All of our guests loved dancing and listening to the group. I can’t say enough amazing words about them. They truly made her reception perfect!

    The Party Starts with Emerald Empire!

    If you want your wedding to be an absolute blast, look no further. The energy, talent, and pure excitement that Emerald Empire Band brought to our reception was awesome! From the moment they started playing, the dance floor was full. They truly made our day feel special and kept the vibes high all night long. Our guests are still talking about how incredible the live music was!!! They know exactly how to read the room and keep the party moving. Every musician was a true professional and sounded fantastic, they turned our wedding into the celebration of a lifetime! Thank you for making our wedding day so memorable!

    Wedding Band Review

    They were unbelievable! Nigel and the team gave us an unforgettable experience at our wedding, they had an excellent range of songs that they were capable of playing, and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out! Thanks again!

    BEST band ever!!

    The band was literally the best part of the whole wedding (and it was already a lit wedding). We got SO MANY compliments on the band! My husband and I spent the entire reception on the dance floor and it literally never died down. And my husband doesnt even like to dance like that, seriously we never dance, but Emerald Empire made it basically impossible not to be out there the whole time they were so infectious and fun! The band (especially the MC Emmanuel- shout out!) kept the energy high the whole time. When I asked guest later what they did all night everyone said "I was on the dance floor the whole time!" Justin was such a huge huge help for the months leading up to the wedding. Always there for any and all of my questions or silly requests. He was so nice, professional, quick, and also just a nice and funny guy. Also he's one heck of a trumpet player. I really cannot emphasize enough how spectacular the band was. Like most people don't think much of a wedding band, but a lot of guests left saying this was the best wedding (and they were right) and I know that a huge part of that was Emerald Empire. Also they hooked us up with the photographer and he was amazing too! it made things so easy that they came together. And the price for the band and everything was very reasonable. I want to hire them for everything. Also if you're ever wondering, the additional lights are worth it. They were so sick. LOVE LOVE LOVE the band!!!!! Thank you!!!

    Phenomenal band

    We hired Emerald Empire Band for our wedding, and they were absolutely incredible. We had an eight piece band, and they brought such a high level of energy, talent, and professionalism from start to finish. They were extremely easy to work with throughout the entire process, from booking to the wedding day, which made everything seamless and stress-free. On the night of the wedding, they completely exceeded our expectations. The dance floor was packed all night, and they created such a fun, interactive atmosphere for our guests. We received so many compliments about how amazing the band was. They truly know how to read the room and keep the energy up. If you’re looking for a top-tier wedding band or party band, I highly recommend Emerald Empire Band. They were one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.
