The BEST band!
Funk Almighty was fabulous to work with! Our guests and ourselves had the absolute best time and we kept getting compliments on our band and set list! Our wedding wouldn’t have been the same without them! One of our most important things for our wedding was having a band, and we were over joyed as the band really did kill it! Thank you Daryl and the Funk Almighty team!

Best band for a packed dance floor!
You won't great signing Funk Almighty for your wedding band! They brought such amazing energy to our reception - we could have kept dancing for another two hours after the end time at our venue. The Funk Almighty band lead and managers care about you as a couple and aim to play the optimal setlist of you and the party vibe that you want to set. The team carefully considered our priority plays, do-not-plays, and the inspiration playlist we sent them. The dance floor and music were the best part of our wedding!

Fantastic Performance
From our first conversation with Funk Almighty, we knew they got what we wanted for our wedding day. They listened to our music preferences and adjusted their setlist perfectly to match our vibe, which made such a difference in how the night felt. What really stood out was how interactive they were with our guests—they didn't just play from the booth, they got on the dance floor with their trumpets and got everyone dancing. Their communication leading up to the wedding was straightforward and hassle-free, and they rolled with any last-minute changes we needed without missing a beat. We got incredible energy and fun for our money, and our guests are still talking about how lively the reception was. We'd absolutely recommend Funk Almighty to any couple looking for a band that brings genuine excitement to their celebration.

Highlight of our wedding!
Funk Almighty was hands down the highlight of our wedding! They brought the perfect vibe to our day. Everyone in the band is super talented and so kind - it was a pleasure working with them. Daryl was awesome and had great communication with us the entire process. All of the logistics were handled seamlessly - from the ceremony, to cocktail hour, to reception, to after hours DJ. We appreciated that they traveled to Wisconsin for our wedding! It was truly a treat for us and our guests. We received so many compliments on how awesome our music was! We were lucky to see Funk Almighty live at Joe's on Weed before our wedding but had them booked for our wedding well before that. We can't wait to see them live again! Thank you Funk Almighty!!!

Funk Almighty has been amazing to work with for our wedding. They are organized, communicative, flexible, and incredibly easy to coordinate with throughout the planning process. They are all professionally trained musicians. Most importantly, they sound incredible. The band is so talented, their song list is diverse, and they bring great energy. Every friend we’ve shared them with has had the same reaction: “I can’t believe that’s your wedding band!” If you’re looking for a live band for an event, we highly recommend them.
