Our relationship with Jacqueline & Joe started a few years ago at Michelle & Matt’s wedding. Jacqueline’s mom sent us the sweetest inquiry: “Heard your band at a wedding two years ago, and I knew then if my daughter ever got married, we had to have your band! Hope you are available!!”

I’m happy to say that we were available, and we had a blast celebrating with everyone. Can’t wait for the next one with this clan!

We met Annie & Tommy at Dale’s birthday party a few years ago, and they remembered that everyone danced the night away and had so much fun. Feet were hurting the next day, the hallmark of a killer party. Could we pack the dance floor for their wedding too?

Oh, we’d be honored to. BOOM.

Annie, thank you for these kind words on Yelp. Can’t wait to see you guys at the next one!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about the Chris Sarlas Orchestra. The 11 piece band played at our July 2016 wedding and they killed it! The dance floor was full the entire night, and our guests keep talking about how great the band was. They were incredibly professional and easy to work with. We would highly recommend them!!

This was our first trip to Bloomington, and we were completely blown away by the beauty of this campus! Kate & Matthew’s guests danced the night away to The Chris Sarlas Orchestra, and we even got everyone involved for not one, but TWO Greek sets of dancing. From start to finish, this was a wedding to remember:

If you’re a regular visitor over here, this tune has developed a bit of “friendly competition” between Jae & Tim. They took it to a whole new level at IU:

Thank you to Matthew’s mom for these kind words on Yelp. You guys danced up a storm!

What an incredible evening Sarlas Music provided for my son’s wedding. They were over the top fantastic. A week later and we all are still smiling from all the fun!

When a couple books us 18 months in advance, you know that they’re serious music fans. Thank you, Mary & Steven, for choosing us to celebrate with you! From the first dance set early in the evening…

through the last dance of the night, this was a party to remember. All our heartfelt thanks to Joan and her team from Five Grain Events for their flawless coordination of Mary & Steven’s wedding day! Check out our favorite moments here:

Mary lit up our Yelp page with this 5 star review:

Chris Sarlas Orchesta performed at our wedding on June 11th and we truly couldn’t be happier with choosing this band!!! We looked at several bands when beginning to plan our wedding and were sold immediately after meeting with Chris and Carol and seeing recordings of their live performances. We chose to do dancing between courses (their idea after we explained our vision). Guests packed the dance floor from the beginning… We literally ran out of space. Everyone had an amazing time and has been raving about the entertainment ever since. No need to look any further… Book this band now! Thank you for everything, Chris, Carol and all of your talented musicians!! Our wedding would not have been the same without you all.

And, we got the best note from Steven after the wedding:

Chris and Carol,

We cant thank you enough for helping us celebrate in such an amazing way. Everyone continues to talk about “that Band” and how great you guys were. You truly made the party come to life and we are so happy and grateful we had you as our band…Looking forward to celebrating with you again at Molly & Angelo’s wedding next year. Molly is one of my best friends growing up and we made it clear if she wanted the best band, you guys were the pick. She has been so excited since our wedding that they chose you guys too!

Can’t wait to see you next summer, Mary & Steven, and Molly & Angelo!
