Franklin & Alison Orchestra played our annual TESU Foundation Gala event for the first time this year. From our initial contact Laraine was enthusiastic, responsive, professional and overall a truly a pleasure to work with. The band executed their roles in our intricate event program and timeline flawlessly, and were very flexible and accommodating to last minute changes. Our guests danced and enjoyed the musical experience they provided. Thanks Laraine and Keith for all you did to make our event a success and for being so great to work with :)

“OMG Where did you find that band! They were awesome! “ “Did you know that people were even dancing before you got there? “ That’s just some of the feedback we’ve received about the Franklin Alison Band. So many decisions go into planning the perfect wedding, but the easiest decision was choosing Franklin Alison Music to play at our cocktail hour and reception. From the first conversation we knew we were going to have fun! We wanted a celebration and we wanted to dance. Although we made suggestions as to the kind of music we wanted, we left it up to Keith and we were not disappointed. The dance floor was always full. They even learned our first dance song which was country. They played everything from Springsteen to Motown to Sweet Caroline. The horns were outstanding and the vocals brought the house down. Laraine had many suggestions for making our evening a success. You can’t go wrong if you book this band!

Such an amazing band! I couldn’t be happier I went with Franklin Alison for my wedding. They are so talented. I’ve gotten so many positive comments from my guests. They communicated with me at often prior to my wedding and the band leader checked in with me many times during my reception to see if I had any requests and to ensure I was happy with everything. I asked for a specific mix up of two versions of the same song for our first dance song and they had no problem making it happen. It was amazing, everything I could have dreamed of. The guitarist for a ceremony did a great job with everything I requested. Highly recommend!!!

I can not express how amazing the band and crew were at our wedding! From start to finish Laraine the band manager was on top of everything from the ceremony music to the music selection itself! She coordinated with us everything we wanted to play and the band even learned NEW songs we requested them to play! Laraine was professional and very experienced with planning how the big day would go! If I had a question about anything she would get back to me almost immediately. Almost everyone at the wedding were on their feet dancing and complimented us on the band and music selection. At the wedding Keith made everything go smoothly from top to bottom. If you are looking for a band who will not disappoint you need to hire Franklin and Alison Music!

Franklin and Alison did an amazing job performing at our son’s 175 person late July wedding reception. Folks who don’t usually dance were out on the dance floor which was nearly packed right thru to the last song. Everyone raved about them that night and for weeks afterward. Music selection was outstanding and reflect a great blend of our favorites and recommended pieces from Alison and Keith which they knew the band would nail - which they did. It was a great experience from planning thru the end of the wedding night. I highly recommend them

The brass quartet that played at St. John the Evangelist Roman Catholic Church was fantastic. The sound of the brass quartet in the church was so beautiful. The brass quartet that played at the cocktail party got the evening off to a great start. Several of the young people told me that the 9 piece band that played at the reception was great. The band director worked with the bride and groom regarding the special arrangement of the music for their first dance. The bride played her trumpet with the band and the groom played his trombone with the band which also made the evening special . The majority of the wedding guests were music instructors, members of either the Pennsbury High School Award Winning Marching Band or the Rutgers University Marching band. The lead singer had an amazing voice. It was a great party and the band made the day along with the beautiful setting and excellent service at Hotel du Village, Bucks County PA.

Keith and the band were fabulous. From the three piece combo during the cocktail hour to the full eight piece band at the reception the music was wonderful. If you want a very talented group of musicians who will keep the house rocking and fill the dance floor, at your next party or celebration, you need not look any further.

Franklin and Alison Music is NOT a "wedding" band. They're fun, vibrant, talented entertainers and a pleasure to work with! We knew we didn't want a DJ for our wedding, but had no idea where to start looking for a band. We wanted a band that would play a mix of Top 40s and some 90s and be able to play some custom requests. But most importantly, we wanted people to DANCE! Well, our venue owner's son was getting married a few weeks after us and he suggested the band he had hired: Franklin and Alison Music. What better recommendation could there be? Laraine Alison and Keith Franklin are a married duo. Laraine manages the band and communicates with you during the prep period, and then Keith is the bandleader and works with you the day/night of the wedding. They're both a lot of fun, energetic, funny, and caring people. Laraine asked all the right questions, was flexible to work with, and very open to communication. We worked through the song list with her, told her what we DID... Read more and DIDN'T want, and asked her to play some custom numbers the band would have to learn for us. She had great feedback, and helped to provide us with a sound setup for the officiant as well as hooking us up with ceremony musicians. The cocktail hour music was elegant and classy. The night of the wedding, the Band was FANTASTIC! People danced all night, the energy was high, our opening song made everyone cry! We had the whole band including horn section (that saxophone makes a HUGE impact -- get the horn section!) and Catrice's voice is incredible -- it should be, she's a Broadway singer! Even during the wedding, people kept asking me about the band - where did you find them? they're amazing! - and after the wedding, it's one of the main things people mention when they say how fun the wedding was. Thank you so much to Franklin and Alison Music! One of my best memories of the night is jumping and dancing until I couldn't breathe anymore! It was wonderful!

Great band. Good vibes. Booked F&A music for our wedding and everything went better than planned. Easy to work with and very attentive to what we wanted on the evening.

My husband and I were thrilled with our band choice for our wedding. They sounded great and kept everyone on the dance floor the whole evening. Laraine worked with us to customize our reception timeline and music and we couldn’t have been happier with the results. Highly recommend Franklin and Alison Music.

Franklin & Alison is absolutely incredible! Lariane (the band manager) is incredibly organized, responsive, and so great at making everything flow. From the initial phone call with Lariane, I knew we were in good hands, she made the process easy. Franklin Alison Band can play anything, and I mean anything! We had a few uncommon requests, and they were able to accommodate us with no problem at all! We got married at HollyHedge Estate in New Hope on 4/13/2019, and our guests are still talking about how great the band was. I can say 100% they made our wedding; the music was awesome, and everyone was dancing all night. Keith kept everything flowing day of and made everything so easy. Do not hesitate to book Franklin & Alison!!!

The band was absolutely incredible. EVERYONE said they made the party! They kept the party literally on their feet the entire evening. No one wanted to sit down because they made it so much fun. They fulfilled all the special requests made and barely took a break. If you want to have the most memorable event this is your best choice!!

Franklin & Alison made our wedding night unforgettable! Once the music got started there wasn't a minute that the dance floor was empty. They have tons of songs to choose from - from current hits to oldies and classics, and the band learned new songs for our first dance and both parent dances - truly talented and versatile! Laraine was a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process, and the band absolutely knows how to throw a good party! All of our guests couldn't stop talking about how amazing they sounded - I highly recommend F&A.

Look no further than Franklin & Alison Music for your wedding band! Made the night absolutely amazing with everyone on their feet practically the entire time. They were accommodating and easygoing, were able to learn special requests and absolutely nailed them. 5 stars all around!
