For our wedding, we selected a four string quartet that sounded amazing. We were able to select pieces from a large "song book" that not only included classical music, but modern pieces. We went with modern, but the one song I wanted was vetoed by the wife: Game of Thrones Red Wedding.

Oh my gosh was Ground Control AMAZING. I don't think there was one person at the wedding who wasn't up and dancing for the majority of the evening. Ground Control has incredible range, killing every song from Pop to Rap to R&B to Rock to Oldies and everything in between. They were incredibly professional and their manager was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the planning process.

The District performed at our wedding and they were fantastic. I'd highly recommend working with Elan Artists and particularly The District!

We booked The District from Elan Artists for our wedding even before they had a big show. As the groom, the music/band was my main concern and they rocked it. Our dance floor was packed from start to finish. We even asked them to perform our first dance with a twist to the original and now we like their version better! Couldn't recommend them more.

I know I am biased because it was my own wedding but let me just say every single guest echoed my same sentiments when I say that Sound House was hands-down the best, most amazing, most professional, most talented and most FUN wedding band I have ever witnessed. The dance floor was packed the entire night and they surpassed all of my expectations. Everyone said they felt they were at a concert and could not stop raving about them. Gretchen & Luis were an absolute pleasure to work with- they listened to all of my requests and made all of my dreams come true. They are one of the main reasons I wish I could do that magical night all over again. I really hope one day I get to see them perform again!! THE BEST.

Nation was amazing!!!! Working with Karla (bandleader) and Gretchen (group coordinator) was a completely seamless process. I loved all their recommendations. First dance songs and special requests were executed perfectly. The kept the party going all night long and played the best music. Someone said throughout the night that they were in awe over the age range of people on the dance floor. It was truly super special. I can’t wait to attend another Nation wedding one day as a guest. Love you guys!!

NATION was UNBELIEVABLE!!! We are still hearing from people about how amazing they were and they sure kept the dance floor packed all night long. We were truly so lucky to find them! Gretchen was fabulous when it came to the booking and was a huge help when it came to song selection for our ceremony. Since we didn't get to hear Nation before we booked (just saw videos on YouTube), we opted to attend a showcase night at Elan's studio in Rockville. At the showcase, we were able to hear Nation live, meet band members, and chat with the band leader, Carla (who is sensational!). All I can say is that we left the showcase with stars in our eyes and knew that they were going to nail it at our wedding. If you are looking for a high energy and incredibly talented band, Nation is definitely the one to go with!

We used Elan Artists to booked our band, The Source, for our wedding. The band was absolutely amazing! People are still talking about how great they were and many have said it was the best band they've ever heard at a wedding! People were on the dance floor the entire night and the song selection was perfect. We had such a good time and couldn't have been happier. Gretchen from Elan Artists was so easy to work with and helped us coordinate everything so it was just perfect. Couldn't have been happier with our selection!

Working with Elan Artists, specifically, the band Nation, was an amazing choice for our wedding. We were hosting a brunch wedding and weren't interested in a Saturday night dance party. The combinations of music that Gretchen put together for us were perfect. We were able to have three different experiences: the ceremony, cocktails and the reception, mixing and matching the band members in different ways. Working with Gretchen and Karla was easy, flexible and enjoyable. They were open to learning new songs and really pulled out all of the stops when we asked if they would learn and accompany my father-in-law (a pianist) to play our first dance. It was incredibly special for us and our guests. After the first dance, they read the room and provided exactly what our guests wanted to hear. We loved working with Nation and would recommend them without hesitation for an event! Also, Luke is a true highlight! I had seen him play another event before and was eager to figure out a way t... Read moreo include him in our day. How lucky were we to get him as part of Nation and highlight him throughout the cocktail hour.

It's always a pleasure to work with DJ Chris Stiles! His ability to mix music and read the crowd is amazing! Plus he's so easy to work with and never takes over an event.

They did an amazing job and were so great to work with!

I really can't say enough fantastic things about our experience with Elan Artists, our band Nation and our booking contact Gretchen! Their open communication and professionalism was invaluable! Gretchen went above and beyond to answer all my questions and helped us organize all the details to book our event! Our band Nation was awesome! They had all of our guests, of all ages, enjoying themselves! They are incredibly talented, and their ability to play such a wonderful variety of music is really what sets them apart from other bands! We are still getting calls from our guests raving about our band!

We used The Source from Elan Artists as our band and they absolutely made our party! We really wanted a Motown funky vibe for the wedding, and they completely got what we were asking for and executed it perfectly. They had everyone up dancing the entire time and people are still talking about how great they were. Our first dance was to a unique song, but they played it perfectly based on just the one youtube video we sent them. They also played a VERY impressive cover of purple rain to close out the night. Gretchen and Eli (band-leader) were responsive throughout the process and very easy to work with. Would recommend both Elan and The Source specifially for any party!

WOW WOW WOW. We cannot say enough good things about The Elements, the Elan Artists dance band that played our wedding reception. I'd already seen them at a showcase in NYC, so I knew what to expect, but the night-of performance still blew me and everyone else away. SO talented, SO energetic, SO fun. They took zero breaks (though they're in the contract!), and kept everyone on the dance floor all night long. We added two horns, which I also highly recommend (they add them into songs that don't ordinarily have horns, so you do get your money's worth!). Kerry, the band leader, was terrific to work with. The entire band, from the musicians to the singers, are just consummate professionals: they know how to put on a fabulous set. You don't need to wonder if they know how to order the songs, how to set the tone, etc.; they do. Yes, they are expensive -- but for perhaps the most memorable part of the wedding (for our guests!), it was worth every single penny.
