This was the 3rd time we have used Big Bling. They are fantastic! Very professional and always deliver more than your money's worth. I highly recommend them and hope to book them again someday. - Rhichard S., Birmingham, AL

Big Bling & The Funk Machine were fabulous. Several guests commented that they have never seen such a large precentage of the guests on the dance floor. - John R., St Simons Island, GA

Such a fun band with lots of friendly faces and great dance moves - Super energy. Played great songs and kept the crowd engaged and on their feet - Lee S., Nashville, TN

Big Bling made our wedding! Months later our guests still tell us they were the best wedding band they've ever seen! So many people have reached out to us asking to use them for their next party! There was never a dull moment at our wedding reception and the dance floor stayed packed all night! Book Big Bling - you won't regret it!!! - Caroline & Brady S, Chapel Hill, SC

We hired extra horns – maybe extra singer (?). They were all great! Also, they were not too loud – thank you! Guests commented on how good they were – and that they could hear the music and their friends! Great party band – very talented. – Jeannette, Birmingham, AL

Band was Fabulous! Bride had heard them before and her first request when they announced the engagement. So interactive the crowd loved them. Like Bride said – “Worth every penny”. – Cathy, Prattville, AL

Best Band Ever!!! High energy & choreographed moves kept people on the dance floor the WHOLE NIGHT!!! – Mary M., Dothan, AL

Big Bling was AWESOME!! We could not have been happier. They played 3 hours continuous and have an amazing playlist. The sound IS amazing and the vocalists are phenomenal. The guests loved them! We would definitely hire them again and recommend them to others. – Jan, New Orleans, LA

Great energy, VERY accommodating and friendly, VERY go with the flow. Our guests loved this band! We felt very lucky to have them! – Brittney, Dacula, GA

We used Music Garden to find our band- Big Bling and the Funk Machine. I was using a wedding planner and communicating with Music Garden through the planner, finally I decided to call Music Garden directly to get their feedback on the bands (since every band that I requested was booked...). The guys at Music Garden were great at giving me a sense of what some of the bands were like and they had recently been to a wedding as a guest where Big Bling and the Funk Machine were playing and had rave reviews about them. So that sealed the deal. But I'll be honest, the music was really important to me and as we got closer to the wedding, I was starting to worry that maybe we didn't pick the best option... but I was wrong, so wrong, couldn't have been more wrong. We even had people in the music industry at our event who thought they were great. They were engaging with the crowd; they really got the party going and I think everyone was disappointed when it was time for it to end! I would absolutely recommend Big Bling and Music Garden! – Melanie, Louisiana

Big Bling was the most entertaining band I have ever seen at a reception! Everyone was on the dance floor the entire night! – Whitney & Doug A., Pelham, AL

Big Bling was perfect! Great music, great performance, great interaction with guests! EVERYONE LOVED THEM!! Hope they get more bookings from those present that night! Or from our next wedding reception!! – Tim & Pat R., Clarksdale, MS

Anthony was a pleasure to deal with. I really liked his attention to details in advance of show… very good communication. – Myron W, Dothan, AL

These guys were GREAT! I have been in many weddings 99.9% of the guests where dancing at the same time. Golden Globe Awards for these guys. I even hugged the leader of the band. – Esteban N., Dallas, TX

We gambled on hiring a band from out of town that we had not heard, and it paid off!! They were fantastic. The dance floor was full all night. We received so many great compliments about them. Everyone wanted to know who they were and where they were from. Wish the night could have been even longer. Can’t wait to use the again!!! - Cecilia K, Dallas,TX

Great band! – Madison, MS

This band is phenomenal!! They performed at my daughter’s wedding reception, we were all amazed at their performance! They kept the energy up the entire night! We danced all night long! It was great! – Tracy N., Santa Rosa Beach, FL

We only regret that we didn't tell people making speeches to keep it short–unfortunately long speeches cut into their set!! This band was amazing and we've had tons of compliments. I wish we could have had all our friends in attendance, but those who were able to come had an amazing time. After a year of stress related to COVID, this was a fun and refreshing night of normalcy and joy. Big Bling helped make my daughter's wedding reception magical and worth the wait! Well done Anthony and band!! – Knoxville, TN
