Thanks in advance, for pictures of the bride just think of Heddy Lamarr.

They're ok. But, for your money, After 9 has them beat.

After 8 sounds like a line of formal wear.

Legit professionals, good sound and energy for a wedding. Haven't booked them for anything but I've heard them around town. Went to high school with their guitarist. No idea if they're worth the price because I don't know what their fee is.

They've done a Champions Square Saints Pregame and some other high profile corporate stuff.

Thanks to all and har-har on the snarkyness.

Any further information would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance, if you positively contribute.

Thanks as well if you don't.

Werewolf if you want 80s music.

True Spin if you want strictly rap/dance music.

AM/FM if you want a pop/dance/rock band with phenominal lead vocals.

Toby Tomplay for variety.

I can get you the info for the listed bands, I've played with and am friends with all of them. They are likely cheaper than After 8 too. I'd recommend my band, but we don't play wedding type music lol.

I'm not booking the band myself but thanks for the information.

If I'm reading your message right, in your opinion After 8 would be suitable, just more expensive than a AM/FM, or the like?

ETA: Just read your second post. Thanks.

Yes, they can def play. But if I'm going bang for your buck, I'd go with one of the other 4.
