"Thank you so much for a wonderful, wonderful evening of music and dancing at our wedding!! We had so much fun dancing, and many, many guests told us during and after the reception how much they loved Big City. Some even said, "I don't usually get out on the dance floor, but the music really pulled me out there." Thank you also for being so flexible and willing to play for a wedding that followed a different format than usual -- we were very happy with the evening's flow. (And the special CD you made for during your break was an extra lovely flourish!)"

"The band was outstanding! You delivered exactly the vibe we were looking for. You had the dance floor completely packed throughout night and clearly knew how to keep everyone entertained. I wish I had written down some of the compliments we received on you guys, everything from the vocalists to the horn section. Everyone had an amazing time, so I couldn't ask for much more. It was a total hit! I’d be happy to serve as a reference any time you like."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! What an amazing wedding all around, and it would not have been the same without Big City! You know how important the music was to us! Everyone commented on how phenomenal the band was... how you all did such a great job "reading the vibe of the room," how you had an appropriate mix of slow and fast, old and new, how much the energy of the music could be felt by everyone.... the compliments go on and on! We really could not have been any happier! How amazing was it that the dance floor was CONSTANTLY packed?!?! You really take pride in your band and it is clear from the overall performance that you have a lot to be proud of! Thank you so much for helping to make our day so special!"

"Thank you so much for everything!! I cannot say enough about the band. You made the process effortless and made sure that everything was perfect. The female vocalist was so wonderful and also great to work with the night of the wedding. She made it very stress free. I have friends and family members asking if the band plays anywhere so that they could see them again. There really are no words to express the talent the band has, or the amount of fun we had. I am so happy that you were a part of our Wedding day. Thank you again Ken for making our Wedding day just perfect!"

"After a whirlwind wedding weekend and a relaxing honeymoon in Italy, John and I are back in the U.S. and back to reality. Thank you so very much for working with us to help make our day such a success, and the BEST PARTY EVER!! We've had many guests raving about you and your group- I think it's safe to say we will see you again at one of their weddings. You did an amazing job, that dance floor got quite a beating-- I warned you that we were a dancing crowd :) As for my dad, he had such a great time coordinating the father/daughter dance- yes, I was surprised! It was perfect :) You were a pleasure to work with, and you exceeded our expectations, thank you for everything!"
