We have a HUGE song list that spans 11 genres of music, so whether you like the nostalgic classics or venture away from the “cookie-cutter” wedding music, we have you covered! Imagine after “Shout”, our band rips out the groom’s favorite Phish song….yes it’s happened!
We celebrated Julie and Peter’s wedding at The Walden! Located in Chicago’s West Town, J + P had our Pianist for their Ceremony, Trio for Cocktails, and our 10-piece big band with horns for dancing! Oh…and check out these cold spark machines – you may need them for Tina Turner’s, “Proud Mary”!

J + P loved the classic Motown & songs that feature horns, so we weren’t shy to bust out Diana Ross’ “I’m Coming Out”, The Temptations’ “Ain’t Too Proud To Beg” and more! Julie loved hip-hop and rock, and so we also played Chance The Rapper, Queen, and others which totaled to be an awesome and versatile Set List!

Our eyes are peeled at weddings, as we’re always looking for fun tips to take back to our couples. The Bride & Groom loved attending concerts together, which they treasured and wanted to fit into the theme of their wedding day. In place of traditional place cards, each guest had a record with their name and table number!

Guests were invited to write a personal note for the couple on records, which created a super fun memory book!
