• For their first wedding as a group, we were very impressed. They chose a nice selection of music to play during cocktail hour and dinner. The band ensured they did everything we requested. Their live performance was great. The singer got down with us on the dance floor. They were very kind in staying for an encore. I would recommend Elements of Funk to ANYONE! They are great and very reasonably priced! Great job guys! -- Jennifer Y, Traverse City, MI, 6/11/2011
