Out of State Weddings

David Rothstein Music enjoys a national reputation as one of the finest music companies in the country. As a result of this and our top rankings on Google, we have been in demand for weddings outside of Chicago. We make using us for your out of state wedding easy, organized and always worth the cost.

For example, in October of 2006 we were flown to Omaha Nebraska for the wedding of Senator Ben Nelson's daughter. We were told by the venue, Joslyn Art Museum, that we were the best band they've ever heard and also the easiest to work with. In September 2007, we played a wedding in St. Louis. They even took us to the Cubs-Cardinals game the next day!
