It was so amazing to get to know Meredith, Clay, and both of their families as we planned their wedding day. The celebration began at Hope Lutheran Church in Long Grove with the Artistrings Quartet for their ceremony, and then transitioned over to their reception at Independence Grove. Artistrings switched gears to 100% pop string quartet music for dinner entertainment, and then The Chris Sarlas Orchestra took over for dancing. WHAT A PARTY!!!
Check out this special surprise version of Uptown Funk, sung by Meredith and Clay’s friend. An amazing gift to them!
Clay’s mom left us these kind words on Wedding Wire:
The Chris Sarlas Orchestra was the highlight of my son’s wedding reception! Besides the amazing talent that we all enjoyed, they have the timing, and professionalism to create an amazing party. People danced all night! One week after the wedding, we are regularly being asked how we found them (word of mouth) and told how amazing they were. You can’t go wrong with this band! We also used the string quartet for the ceremony and dinner music and they were just as wonderful. They have a huge selection of music to choose form. Chris worked with the Bride & Groom in advance to choose music and discuss everything from the introduction of the wedding party to how to do toasts.
Thank you Tia! We had a blast celebrating with your families!
It’s always such a pleasure to be back at the InterContinental, working with Chris Schmidt and his team. Nicole & Brian assembled a group of rock-star vendors, including Dilly Lily, JDetailed Events, and Gerber & Scarpelli. If you’re looking for our favorite crowd surfing bride, you’ve come to the right place. We danced until 2am! Check out some highlights here:
Nicole & Brian, hope to see you dancing at an event soon!
If it wasn’t clear from her son’s wedding a couple of years ago, it became abundantly clear tonight. Dale knows how to throw a party, and she knows how to celebrate. We were so honored to celebrate again with this wonderful family, honoring life, family, and friends. Happy Birthday Dale!!
We love playing for good causes, and this is one of the best. The Union League Boys & Girls Clubs 37th Annual Gala raised more than $260,000 to benefit at-risk youth. It was a magical night, with donors working together to help children in need reach their full potential as productive, responsible, caring citizens.
Here are a few tunes that feature Dayna & Jae!
Your guests will tell you that they're dancing to the best band in Chicago, and we have the reviews to prove it!
