Always a fantastic time to visit our Alma Mater and perform! Here’s the very cool space for Abby & John’s wedding dinner

After a beautiful meal, guests transitioned into the domed space for dancing, and we had a blast.

This Bruno Mars tune knocked us out when we heard it on Saturday Night Live a couple of weeks ago. Here’s our first time though it — what do you think? Our guess is that this is going to be the hottest new tune of the year. WE LOVE IT!!

It’s not very often when the GROOM sits in with us – how cool is this?! Yeah John!

Chicago Wedding Band Performed for Kassandra & Brian’s Wedding at The Art Institute’s Stock Exchange Trading Room

We’re always humbled and honored to be chosen by each and every one of our couples. When we’re chosen multiple times by the same family, it’s an extra-special honor. And, when we’re chosen by a bride who is a professional percussionist and a groom who is a recording engineer, it’s pretty much the ultimate compliment. That’s why Kassandra and Brian’s wedding was so special to us. With the Stock Exchange Trading Room filled with musicians from around the globe, this was a fabulous celebration.

We were thrilled to work with Sara from Five Grain Events. The entire planning process was smooth as silk and every single detail was expertly attended to. Can’t wait to work with you again Sara!

Delighted to get this note from Kassandra a few weeks after the wedding:

Hi Chris,

THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH for everything during our wedding. You guys sounded amazing and went above and beyond! I keep hearing from everyone how great you were. I couldn’t have asked for a better band to have at our wedding. As you could tell, I barely left the dance floor, which I think is always a great sign. From one musician to another, I thank you for making one of the most important parts of my wedding absolutely perfect!

All the best,

Kassandra

We loved playing some traditional Greek music for them. Take a peek!

We loved getting this note from Terese, the day after the wedding…
“We had such an amazing night and you played a big part of that! Thank you for everything you did to make the reception so fun. The band was AWESOME and we have heard nothing but rave reviews from all of our guests.”

And…many thanks to Temple Schultz for filling in for Dayna, who had a very special labor of her own this Labor Day weekend. (It’s a boy! Welcome Levi!)

Here are some highlights from Terese & Brad’s fabulous wedding:

Colleen & Scott’s wedding at the MCA could not have been on a more picture-perfect, gorgeous sunny day. Artistrings set the mood for their ceremony in the sculpture garden…here is Colleen making her entrance with her parents.

After a lively cocktail hour with trumpet & keyboard playing New Orleans style jazz, everyone came inside to begin dinner and dancing. Colleen & Scott’s first dance, Come Rain or Come Shine – Ray Charles.

After a short dance set, guests were seated in the atrium, and enjoyed a delicious meal from Wolfgang Puck Catering.

Everyone danced the night away. Sadly, we had a video camera malfunction, so it’s just pictures for this one!
