We were very happy with the entertainment provided at our wedding by The Emerald Empire Band! What especially impressed me was their song selection. They had unique song selections that you don't hear at every wedding, while keeping the music upbeat and wedding appropriate. They had our specific requests prepared for the first dance, father/bride dance, and mother/groom dance. They were accommodating to our schedule of events for the day, and they also kept the volume at a reasonable level. So both dancing and conversations could be enjoyed by our guests the entire evening. From the beginning, Rob was very easy to communicate with, and he offered a very organized form for us to fill out with the details of the evening, to keep everything running smoothly. As a professional musician myself, I was very impressed with the musicianship and professionalism of The Emerald Empire Band! I would highly recommend them for most any event! read more

Emerald Empire Band is AMAZING to work with!!! They are so organized and streamlined which made the planning process extremely easy. They performed for both our rehearsal dinner and our wedding night. They were great at MC'ing for the speeches during the rehearsal dinner and the 5 piece band played a fantastic set for the welcome party. We had an 8-piece band for the wedding and they blew our expectations out of the water. They were amazzzzing performers. So lively and fun. Our guests had the best time and couldn't stop raving about how great the band was. Emmanuel was our lead planner and he was just lovely to work with. They have a detailed planning page to ensure they have all of the details right & they make sure to get a perfect gauge of your taste in music. I highly recommend using them for any event!! read more

LOOK NO FURTHER! Hiring Emerald Empire Band was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. We had 2 piece ceremony musicians, jazz trio for cocktail hour, and then 6 piece band for our ceremony. The band is the number one thing that guests have been complimenting us on. We had guests who had larger bands for their own weddings and they consistently told us Emerald Empire was doing more with 6 than other bands are doing with 10-12+. The group was SO much fun and truly kept the party going all night long. We also chose to have the band perform our first dance songs live, which was an amazing touch. Ward was so easy to work with leading up to the event, and made us feel so comfortable. I could not recommend Emerald Empire more highly!! read more
