Hi Katie,
We can’t believe it’s been a week since the best day / party of our lives. We can’t thank you enough. Encore made our wedding. People said it was the best wedding band they’ve ever seen and best wedding they’ve ever been to.
Thanks so much for all you did to help us along the way. We deeply appreciate it.
Encore deserves an encore! They were magnificent, professional, classy, engaging and kind.
I would hire them again in a heartbeat! Thank you all for making this special day, even better!
Blessings and love from us all:)
Hi Katie,
We had an absolute blast with Encore at our wedding. We couldn’t have had a better time, they have amazing talent and energy!
Thanks so much for all the prep, and for being a part of our special day!!
Dear Katie and the rest of the Wilson Stevens Team,
Thank you so so much for making our wedding day an absolute BLAST! Encore’s energy and performance were incredible and we could not be more pleased with our decision to work with you!
Joel & Lindsey G.
Hi Katie!
I hope all is well! This is extremely long overdue, but I finally feel like things have quieted down from the wedding. I have to say…Encore KILLED it! I have seen so many friends and family since the wedding and everyone has the same response “that band made the wedding!” They were exceptional and had everyone on the dance floor the entire time! We could not have been happier. Thank you for all of your help making our dream wedding a reality!
Thank you again for all of your help!
Hi Emily and Cheryl,
We just wanted to say thank you so much to you, Encore, and your team for putting on the most fantastic performance at our wedding!
The band was amazing and so nice! We got so many compliments on the music and energy that Encore provided. Everyone had so much fun, and it truly is a testament to their performance.
So thank you so much for being a huge part of our day!
Justin and Katlin,
We can’t thank you enough for all your help in the process of booking, choosing our band and planning the event. We have been getting endless compliments. The music was perfect and they were so talented and entertaining. We’ve seen a lot of wedding bands this year and they were the first that really engaged with the audience and everyone loved it. They were also so great with the MCing during dinner and the first dance. 6 out of 5 stars! We literally didn’t stop dancing the entire night! Our wedding was truly a dream come true and so much fun. That is due in large part to you and Encore. Please relay this to all the members as well!
Everyone at Wilson Stevens Productions was very responsive and worked well with our other vendors and the venue staff. We loved working with you. All of the members were so talented and friendly too. They really felt the crowd out and tuned their energy, engagement, and talent to what was needed. We are thrilled with our service from Encore / Wilson Stevens!
Just wanted to send you a quick note…Everyone was blown away by how fabulous Encore was! Over the top! Also very engaging! Thanks for your help and best wishes in the New Year:)
We just had our wedding at the Great Harbor with ENCORE on October 15th. The band was absolutely amazing. I just wanted to thank you so much!!
Best to you and the crew:)
Hi Katlin,
Thank you all again for being a part of our special day. The band was INCREDIBLE and everyone keeps asking about them. Seriously, huge thanks. Encore was truly so special.
Hi Katlin,
I just wanted to send an email expressing how much we LOVED having Encore at our wedding. They were absolutely amazing and they had the dance floor packed from start to finish. Everyone came up to us after to say that was the best wedding band they’ve ever seen.
I want to thank you for helping to make our day special 🙂 You were so easy to work with.
Thanks again!
Hi Katlin!
We had a wonderful day Sunday and everyone loved Encore! Everyone is still talking about how great the band was.
Thank you!
Hi Jessica,
I wanted to let you know that everyone loved Encore for our daughter’s wedding on July 23. They are outstanding musicians/entertainers and the crowd danced the night away! It was all perfect.
Everyone was totally BLOWN away by Encore. I give them a 10 out of 10! Their positivity, professionalism, kindness and sociability was infectious. They packed the dance floor and I can’t say enough about them…unbelievable.
Hello!
We just wanted to say thank you to Encore! Please tell them we had an amazing night and they were so stellar. My fiancé also sang the last song with the band. Everything was absolutely amazing!! I would recommend Encore times a million. Thank you!!
Cheryl,
I wish I could make another party just to have Encore back as the music!!!
They were amazing, beyond our expectations, lovely to work with, incredible entertainers – and more.
All the best!
I can’t even begin to express how phenomenal Wilson Stevens and our band Encore was from start to finish. Our family has used them before so we knew we would be getting the best of the best, but our expectations were exceeded once again. Our wedding wouldn’t have been what it was without the energy and entertainment from the band! The guests couldn’t stop saying how amazing Encore was throughout the whole night, and telling me they were the best band they’ve ever heard and seen at a wedding. Everyone at Wilson Stevens is so responsive and professional, we couldn’t have asked for anything more! You will not go wrong with them!
Good Morning Katlin,
I just wanted to reach out with my sincerest gratitude to you and to Encore. The band members were incredible and made our wedding beyond fun! So many people said that it was the best wedding band they had ever seen!!! From the Hora dance, to the Bruno Mars dance/scream off, to Benny and the Tretts remake, letting me scream my heart out while singing Mr Brightside… the list goes on and on! Every single person had the best night – and Encore was instrumental in that (pun intended)! Not only did you make the process on the day of the wedding so easy, but you made the 3 year process feel like a breeze. After working with us to push back our wedding date by one year due to Covid, I have become incredibly grateful for all of you.
Thank you again from the bottom of my heart!
With Love,
The Newlyweds
Encore was AMAZING! We really appreciate all your help and will be recommending you to anyone and everyone!
Hi Tim,
I just wanted to let you know that we had the BEST time at our wedding on Friday night. Encore was amazing and every guest was commenting on how great they are. They are all fantastic musicians, so talented, and so much fun!! They brought so much energy to the dance floor, I can’t imagine our night without them. Our friends and family are still talking about them and will be for a long time!
Thanks again for everything!
We absolutely loved the Encore band, they did a phenomenal job! Have had multiple people asking for their information to potentially book them for future events! Thank you so much!
I wanted to again THANK YOU for a wonderful event together for Liz & Derek. I so appreciate all the help you were in this process. From the emails through the day of, the band made it easy to make the weekend that much more special for this sweet couple. Everyone had such a fun time with them!
I look forward to working with you again soon.
Hi Cheryl, We can’t say enough about Encore at our son’s 12/31 wedding event! You folks are absolutely incredible! What is the best way for us to leave a comment about our experience with Encore and Wilson Stevens in general?
Thanks again for everything!
Hi Katlin,
We wanted to circle back and let you know how thrilled and blown away we were by the band, the staff, and our entire experience with Wilson Stevens. Encore was spectacular for our daughters wedding. The energy in the room was perfect, the music excellent, the voices superb. Wow!
All our dealings with you from the 1st call were so easy and professional. Our guest were equally stunned at how terrific the band was. Encore truly made the night a hit.
Thank you!!!!
Just want to let you know that our daughter and now son-in-law were married last evening at the above mentioned venue and all I heard (as the bride’s mom) was how fabulous the band Encore was. I could not agree more! The band members could not have been more receptive and accommodating and polite and kind, and just overall great to work with. Not only were they fantastic musicians, playing all kinds of music but very polite individuals. I cannot say enough about this band – if there’s any doubt in anyone’s mind as to hiring them for their function, put your mind at rest, you’ll have the BEST with this band. We made an excellent choice hiring them. The dance floor was full to capacity (with a 225 guest wedding), all night! Thank you to ALL of them. You guys are just great.
Thank you SO much for executing the perfect evening for me and Pat. Everyone was raving about Encore and how awesome the tent looked. It was so perfect and I cannot thank you all enough for all of your efforts. Our photographer has already asked for the band’s information to recommend them to another couple.
THANK YOU AGAIN!!
Hi Tim!
I just wanted to send a quick email and say just how much we loved Encore and Fantasia Strings. I have to tell you that all night guests kept coming up to me and commenting on how great Encore was! One of my friend’s moms even asked for their information and if they travel to NY for her son’s wedding! We are so pleased and honestly this was the best wedding band! The DJ was also great! I know I have mentioned just how nice and easy your company was to work with before and I really do just want to mention how great Katlin is. Very sweet, prompt to reply and very on the mark. Thank you so much in helping to create such a great night for us. It was perfect!
Thanks again, Encore was SO great!! Everyone danced all night & they were so high energy. I cried when it was over 🙂 haha thank you for everything!
We had Encore play at our wedding and I couldn’t recommend them more! They had the dance floor packed all night and Wilson Stevens was such a pleasure to work with leading up to the wedding.
At one point during the reception, I was very eager to get the dance floor going and knew we still needed to have the MOH and BM speeches. The band lead came out from his break to help to introduce them so that we could get the party started as soon as their break was done (they only take two, short breaks the entire night). Thank you Encore for going above and beyond to help get the dance floor rocking!
I hope you are well! This is a bit delayed, but we wanted to reach out to say thank you to you and Encore for the most amazing experience. They absolutely made our wedding. We were married in September and everyone still talks and asks about our band! They were truly amazing –professional, fun, gracious, and super talented. We can’t thank you enough! Also wanted to share this picture that we got back from our photographer!
Thanks again for everything. We will definitely be recommending Wilson Stevens Productions and especially Encore to anyone who will listen!
From my initial inquiry to Encore’s performance, I couldn’t have picked a better company and band to perform at our wedding. Encore’s performance was top notch and they had the dance floor going all night. Our guests ranted and raved about the band and kept asking where we found them. They truly made our celebration memorable.
Also side note, we LOVED the Showcase Wilson Stevens put on at the Seaport last winter!
Encore,
Thank you all for playing such an important role in making our wedding so special! You are all incredibly talented and really know how to bring the party! We are so thankful and how special to include my sister! Thank you for making our wedding so much fun!
Hey all,
Thanks to your Katlin, and Encore of course, for being the greatest wedding band we could have asked for!!! So many positive comments from friends and family about you all. Great healthy mix of oldies and modern stuff for all crowds. We danced the whole night, ripped dresses, broke shoes, and destroyed feet— huge signs of music SUCCESS!
Thanks again for making this night so special! Music is one of most important things for me and you guys slayed.
Hi Katlin,
Just want to send a thank you to the Encore band – they were absolutely unbelievable and surpassed any and all expectations!!! We loved them and everyone was talking about how amazing they were (and still are). They got into the crowd and were the life of the party!!! Thank you again!
The band was absolutely amazing! Had all my guest up dancing! I got so many compliments after the wedding! Just WONDERFUL! Thank you Encore!!
Overall from start to finish working with Wilson Stevens was extremely easy. Everything was done in a professional manner and we were updated and followed up with through out the year before our wedding. ENCORE was excellent – all of our guests commented on how great the band was. They were energetic, got the crowd going and they played exactly the right music. I would recommend them for any event!
Encore delivered the best music ever for our daughter’s wedding! We are still receiving compliments about the wedding…especially the music!! All the band members were very professional, talented, upbeat and fun!!! Look no further….this is your band!!!!! Book them…NOW!
I wanted to send a BIG thank you to Encore for making our wedding night!! We were so blown away by their talent and energy, and felt so lucky to have them play for our wedding! We hope they had just as much fun as we did. I have heard from over a dozen guests as well who said Encore was hands down not only the best wedding band they have ever heard, but one of the best live bands they’ve ever heard. Jake and I couldn’t agree more – they were absolutely fantastic. Thank you again, and a big thank you to Adam for the ceremony music!!
We can’t wait to continue recommending to our friends for any and every event in the future.
Hi Tim,
I just wanted to follow up with you to let you know we had an AMAZING time with Encore. Everyone absolutely loved it was a pleasure to meet every single band member.
If there’s anything we can do to offer a positive review please let us know. We will share the contact info with anyone looking for a band and again thank you for being a part of our celebration.
Best,
Chris
Encore performed at our wedding on June 30th. They played alongside a Greek band at the Four Seasons. They were absolutely AMAZING! Encore was full of energy, had the entire room on the dance floor, was on the dance floor interacting with guests and ensured that everyone had a fabulous time! They were even bopping along to the Greek music when the DJ was playing and a few of them even joined guests on the dance floor to partake in some Greek dancing. They were absolutely fabulous and made our wedding an absolutely amazing party! I fully recommend them and would hire them again in a heartbeat. We loved them as did our guests. Thank you for making our wedding the most fun and memorable experience possible!
I just wanted to comment on what a fantastic job Encore did at my daughters wedding a few weeks ago. I have gotten so many compliments during and after the wedding of people that were just blown away by their performance. I personally Encore was one of our very best investments as they really rocked the house and every person was dancing the entire time they were on stage!…..truly great job!! Thank you
Justin & Katlin,
Thank you to you both and Encore for one insane wedding. Encore seriously rocked it – They did this one song, I think it was Havana, and then they morphed it into something else, but it’s STILL in my head. When I say they were off the charts, I mean it! So, so good!!!
You are always a fabulous partner…thank you again!!
There is nothing like a live band and this band sounded amazing. Encore was fabulous, we loved them..Everyone loved them!!!The dance floor was packed all night. With so many choices to make when planning a wedding, deciding on Encore was one of our best decisions. Thanks as well for accommodating the special requests.
As usual, Encore made our client extremely happy. Katlin and all the folks at WS are very helpful and on top of it. Thank you!
To be honest, I never saw Encore perform live before our wedding. Wilson Stevens was recommended so I decided to wing it. They blew my expectations out of the water. They had our 170 person wedding singing, dancing, sweating, twisting and shouting all night long. Everyone is still talking about them. I can’t say enough about this group! Thank you Encore!
Encore truly set the tone for the celebration throughout the afternoon and evening. I can’t say enough about Encore’s performance and value — the band’s versatility provided music in three different spaces we used at the wedding venue. The keyboardist’s jazz added elegance to the cocktail hour in the gardens, while the instrumental trio who came out to the Carriage House offered delightful background music during dinner. But the party really kicked off when the full band came together under the tent and filled the dance floor until the last call. All night long, guests were beaming and singing Encore’s praises — they especially were blown away when the vocalists joined everyone on the dance floor!
I will be sending an email in the future about the experience, but in summary, Encore was one of the BEST decisions we made for our wedding. They were amazing!
To the entire Wilson Stevens team,
Thank you all so much for your professionalism leading up to our wedding and for making our wedding so entertaining. We’ve received so many compliments about Encore and we are so thankful!
Thanks again!
Performance Review:
1) Quality of Music: Excellent. Numerous guests said this is the best band they’ve seen at a wedding!
2) Choice of Music: Excellent.
3) Grooming & Attire: Excellent.
4) Emceeing: Excellent.
5) Break Schedule: Excellent.
6) Use Wilson Stevens again? Yes. Extremely easy – great communication!
7) Use artist again?: Yes. Kaitlin did a great job connecting us with the artist.
Encore was amazing. They were exemplary professionals. Even though the power went out for 20 minutes, they kept the energy of the party going (playing acoustic, leading “sing-alongs” with popular songs) and it made for a really memorable experience. They also didn’t take a break to make up for the lost time, even though they kept playing. We would recommend them to friends in an instant.
