Best Day Ever! 

"My wife and I took all the speeches and pageantry of our wedding and did them the evening before at the rehearsal dinner so that the reception was a non-stop, uninterrupted party.  Having a good band was essential and would make or break the evening.  BDE did NOT disappoint.  I was particular about how our entrance song was played and I couldn’t help but get a huge smile on my face when I heard the band start it; exactly what I had envisioned.  At one point in the evening, my wife turned around to look at the band as we danced and said “I have to keep reminding myself that it’s a live band, each song sounds just like the real recording”.  I loved how Dave Arndt and company worked the crowd; coming out on the dance floor with their instruments and moving along with us.  Even when the full band took a break, the musical interludes provided by remaining members as we ate were excellent.   Our families raved about the band and the most enthusiastic compliments came from my friends/family with musical backgrounds who were really impressed with the band’s chops.  BDE accommodated all of our “must plays” and respected our “do not plays”.  They were high energy from beginning to end.  You know you have a good band when the whole place is on the dance floor at the end of the night shouting for “one more song!”.  I could not have imagined a better wedding and I give a lot of credit to BDE for making it so special/memorable/amazing.  Thank you!!"

"We were impressed with Best Day Ever from the moment we contacted Dave to get a quote. He was extremely professional, honest and responsive throughout the process. When we were looking for bands we didn't realize just how critical it was to have someone who could manage the days details and logistics and how integral the band manager is to making the day run smoothly. Aside from being a pleasure to work with the band itself is amazing! Dave even arranged for us to watch the band practice so we knew that they sounded just as good ,if not better, in-person as they did in their videos. The group is extremely talented and plays a great variety of music and knew exactly what songs and when to keep our wedding vibe up the full night. The playlist works so they never even took a break once during our entire wedding - which is pretty unheard of for wedding bands. All of our guests raved about the band! Dave also helped coordinate music for cocktail hour and ceremony - all for a very fair price! I would definitely recommend!!"

"Best Day Ever! is in fact the best band ever!!!  We hired them for our company holiday party and they were a huge hit! Everyone was up on their feet dancing and jamming along the whole night. Dave (their manager) is incredibly nice and such a pleasure to work with! He made sure the playlist targeted our whole audience and sounded even better than I could imagine (which was hard to believe since they sound amazing in their clips!) We hired the 10 piece band with the full ensemble and 3 lead singers. I would definitely recommend them for any and all events and hope to work with them again!

"The band was phenomenal! They played all the music we wanted and once they started, they didn't stop all evening. It was fantastic! ... Dave Arndt was a pleasure to work with. From start to finish, he kept me organized in planning all the songs we wanted to hear. He planned out the evening with dances, toasts, etc. He let me know what the band needed in terms of electricity, generator, etc. He also got in the loop of emails with the caterer and tent guy to help figure out best layout for dance floor, stage, etc."

"Best Day Ever is truly top of the line. They maintained a tight professional relationship from start to finish. ... once they arrived and interacted with me & my team, I knew I'd hired a very fine group. The musicians are extremely talented but most pronounced was their desire to create a wonderful effect upon their audience and ensure I was satisfied with their performance. I am now working out HOW CAN I USE BEST DAY EVER ONCE AGAIN! Thank you for not only being Best Day Ever, but for being The Very Best!"
