The annual festival was graced with the stellar performance of BFTP, who were beyond amazing! Their vocal and horn section were exceptional, and the group consisting of highly skilled professionals in music and vocals. To complement our 70's theme, the girls even dressed in appropriate attire. The community had nothing but wonderful things to say about the show, and working with them was a total delight due to their professionalism. We wouldn't hesitate to invite them back to perform again, and I wholeheartedly recommend them for any event.

Our wedding reception was truly enchanted thanks to Brass From the Past. Their performance had the dance floor bustling with guests spanning three generations, and the music was adored by all, with discussions still being held months later. Prior to the festivities, John was exceptional in his ease of communication, and their meticulous preparation resulted in a flawless evening. We cannot recommend them highly enough!

The euphoria from our wedding a few months back is still very much alive. Without exception, every guest we've spoken with raves about the band being the highlight of the night. The band went above and beyond to cater to our wildest requests and astounded us with a packed dance floor all through the night. Even my brother-in-law couldn't stop gushing about how helpful and amiable the guitarist and the other band members were in assisting him to set up his sound equipment for the ceremony, where he sang for us with BFTP playing the acoustic guitar. We've already begun a campaign to get other wedding guests to join us in catching BFTP at one of their public gigs soon. BFTP was simply amazing! They made the reception a sheer blast and were readily flexible and responsive during the planning phase.

Dear John and the rest of the Band,
I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude for the fantastic performance you gave at our wedding. Your music truly made the event an incredible one on the big stage, and our guests have not stopped talking about it since.
It was quite impressive to see how even the staff at the Genesee Theatre was wowed by your performance. I assure you that your music truly left an unforgettable impression on all of us.
I have taken some amazing pictures of your performance, which I will compile and send to you. Please feel free to use them as you see fit. I also enjoyed looking at the photos on your Facebook page with my wife, Patty.
There are no words that adequately express my appreciation for making our wedding day a truly remarkable one. Thank you once again for the memories that we will cherish for years to come.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]

At my wedding reception last weekend, BFTP gave an outstanding performance, and the dance floor was packed from the first song to the last. Their music is so captivating that within 30 seconds of the first song, you can tell that choosing them was the right decision. Your guests will undoubtedly have an unforgettable evening. John was a pleasure to work with, and the band's familial atmosphere keeps you calm during the whole experience. We can't emphasize enough how much we recommend BFTP, and we can't wait to brag that we had them at our wedding! Thank you, BFTP, for creating such an enjoyable event.
