Energy Kept Everyone Dancing!
Working with David and his team was the easiest part of our wedding planning! My husband and I knew that having great music was the top priority for our reception and the band certainly delivered. From the first day we inquired about David Rothstein and band, he called us literally within the hour to have a conversation. From that point on there was constant communication through phone, email, video calls, and text to finalize all the details about our wedding day. Using his extensive experience from performing at weddings, we were able to draw up the perfect timeline of events. We didn’t give them a lot of direction as to what we wanted played and the best part was that we didn’t need to! His band read the room and changed up music as needed. The band was all of our guest’s top compliment and so many people stayed later than we would have expected because of it. David’s energy and enthusiasm kept everyone excited and having fun the entire night. From the announcements, speeches, and traditional songs, David controlled it all and made sure it was seamless. A week before the wedding we changed up the mother/son dance and David acted like it was no problem and had an arrangement that was perfect. He was so flexible and ALWAYS available to answer any questions. One of our groomsmen got excited and wanted to sing a song late in the night. David handed over a mic, turned down the volume, and let the groomsman “sing” his heart out while the band took over. Our guests loved it and it will always be a great memory. We LOVED getting pictures and videos from him the night after our wedding. Receiving those was the best surprise since professional pictures and videos take so long to get back. My husband and I are huge Notre Dame fans and David presented us with a Notre Dame football signed by Rudy. All of our guests signed it and we will treasure it forever. We truly have NOTHING bad to say about our experience with the David Rothstein Band and would recommend David Rothstein and Band to anyone and everyone! Absolutely the Best Band We Have Ever Seen!
David Rothstein Band was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding day. We used the jazz trio during cocktail hour, 11-piece band, and late-night DJ and saxophone for our wedding reception.
We were absolutely blown away by David Rothstein Band. David is extremely professional, organized, and an absolute joy to work with. My husband and I both went to Indiana University and David had all of our guests sign an IU basketball – truly an awesome touch! The band is incredible. They are extremely talented and energetic.
Our dance floor was packed all night long with people of all ages dancing. The band went out of their way to learn songs for us and it was obvious that they are truly passionate about what they do. I can’t say enough good things about this band. Guests came up to us the entire night of our wedding saying how incredible the band was and how they’ve never danced so much at a wedding. Our wedding was over a month ago now, but we are still receiving reviews and compliments on how AMAZING the band was. I highly recommend David Rothstein Band!
Having a live band and fun atmosphere at our wedding was a top priority for us and we could not have been happier with David Rothstein Music!!
We liked David from the moment we met him and bonded over our love for the Cubs. At our wedding, the band gifted us a framed photo of the marquee at Wrigley on Opening Day 2014 (the day we met!) for our guests to sign.
So thoughtful! We used DRM for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. We had a vision for our ceremony and wanted more modern music (Bon Iver, Beck, Adele). They accommodated this with ease and gave honest feedback on what would work and what wouldn’t. It was perfect and absolutely what we envisioned — thanks Alex!!
For dinner/reception our emcee (Brian) was great! He accommodated last minute changes with introductions and got the guests excited. And the band even worked with my MOHs to incorporate music into their speech, which was a total surprise and absolutely hilarious. The reception was a blast!!
The dance floor was PACKED the entire time, which is exactly what we wanted. We asked guests to add a song request on their RSVP card and the band gave special shout outs to certain guests before playing- such a sweet touch! They also accommodated our “must play” song list between the band and DJ sets.
We have received countless reviews and compliments about DRM from our guests and it was by far the BEST decision we made for our wedding. Serve pizza for dinner if you have to, hiring DRM is worth it!!!
Coming from a family of music lovers, we knew that the first thing we needed to book for our wedding was an amazing band. I had heard of David Rothstein Music in the past and immediately checked out their website to get some more information.
After listening to their music clips and meeting with David, we knew it was a done deal. David and the band were a pleasure to work with and he really cares about the details to make sure the day went smoothly.
Unlike some vendors, you can contact him at practically all hours of the date. The day-of was more than I could have imagined. I am Jewish and my husband’s family is from India. I was worried that not many people would dance due to the cultural aspect.
Boy was I wrong! David and the band did a great job at determining the kind of music our group wanted to hear and our dance floor was full most of the evening! All the musicians and vocalists were outstanding. We received so many compliments and great reviews from our guests on the awesome music at our wedding. Thank you so much David Rothstein Music for such a fantastic and memorable day!
