Travis and his band were absolutely phenomenal to work with for our wedding. The music was great; he learned our first dance song perfectly; the selection of music meant there was something for everyone; and he even had tarps to put up to keep the music going as the rain came down. Absolutely professional and a joy to work with. Plus, a bunch of my musician friends from around town recommended Travis and said he's fun to play with. You'll think so too. Thanks, Travis!

Louis Pettinelli Entertainment was an absolute dream to work with. I thought that a live band for our wedding would be out of our reach, but LPE was so easy to work with and what an incredible value! Our band, LPE Snapshot was incredible and our ceremony musicians were amazing too! The vocalists were high energy and kept the whole event moving. They were great Emcess and they even added some special non-traditional reception activities for us. They were super flexible and played all the songs we asked for- even some very “niche” tracks we asked for during the ceremony. So many of my guests said the band was their favorite part of the reception. I highly recommend LPE entertainment! (I am also a musician myself so I’m very picky!)
