Wedding Reception•Reviewed on August 8, 2011•From Tinley Park, IL
I cannot say enough about how wonderful every single person in the Sound Encounter Orchestra is. They made our beautiful wedding all the more beautiful and it would not have been the same without them. Thinking of hiring a DJ compared to this band? Don't!
Paul is the most wonderful person to deal with from start to finish and the level of professionalism the whole band displayed cannot be beat. We put so much into the planning of our wedding and making the decision to hire The Sound Encounter Orchestra, was by far, the best decision we could have made for the entertainment for our reception. Every single guest in attendance loved the band and asked who they were!!!

We had nothing but GREAT experiences with The Sound Encounter Orchestra! Not only were they patient and accommodating with our special requests, they were timely, professional, considerate, pleasant and amazing to deal with. They made the reception special and even learned a special song for our first dance as husband and wife...and they performed it beautifully. We would definitely recommend The Sound Encounter Orchestra to anyone wanting an upbeat band that can play songs from ALL genres (they even played the polka when someone requested it during the reception!). Their ability to take requests on the spot without missing a beat was incredible. A+++++++++++++

They played our wedding this past Saturday (11th) and it could not have gone better. Everyone had positive comments and was constantly complimenting the quality of the band. In fact my grandmother, who is a bit naive, asked "Where can I buy there CD, they are great!" I would HIGHLY recommend Paul and the Sound Encounter Orchestra. Every member was very talented. The communication was very easy, the day of the event was extremely smooth, and the follow-up was great. A very classy group all around and would be excited to work with them again.

We couldn't have been any happier with our wedding day! It was probably one of the most memorable parts of our wedding& my husban's still talking about how awesome it was to go up on stage to sing with the band! They kept the party going,helped us organize everything by emcee-ing the night-&they all sounded incredible. Guests asked where we found SEO &we have passed on the info! Even our photographer went to ask for their card! They mingled with our guests during dinner & everyone enjoyed that too! Thanks so much for everything! I think my husband is trying to plan something else just to have the band again!LOL!Sound Encounter Orchestra ROCKS!

The band made our wedding! Every single person asked about the band and commented how great they were. People from my work already plan on hiring them for our company event and for a birthday party. I can't say enough good things about them.

I don't think they could have been any better. They were very professional and talented. I would highly recommend them. As a matter of fact I have already recommended them to a freind. By the way I think gigmaster is a great idea.

Wow!Paul Nuccio was easy with which to work leading up to our event. The band accommodated several special requests: including learning some Johnny Cash and a three song medley for our first dance as husband and wife.
The band played light music during dinner which did not overpower conversation and was very pleasant in the background. After dinner, things really got swinging when they kicked off dancing music.
Our guests kept commenting on how fabulous the band was. Best of all, the band members themselves seemed to be having a great time.
Thanks so much to The Sound Encounter Orchestra for putting on such a great and personalized show for us and our guests!

The New Image Band went above my expectations. I went through a lot of trouble to book them for my wedding and it definitely paid off, no question. I received so many compliments during my reception. People kept asking who they were and where they were from. Even now, a week later, I am still getting compliments. They really made my wedding memorable.

The New Image Band gave an outstanding performance-as an event planner working with a new client, it was important for me that the evening go smoothly from all aspects. It did, and my client expressed that the band performed beautifully, and was particularly impressed that the band had 3 lead vocalists, all unique and very talented, the songlist was varied, and that they sounded and looked great on stage. The client rehired me for next year, and needless to say, I'll rehire The New Image Band for my future events. Also, Paul was very easy to work with, and very helpful in the planning stages, for which I'm very appreciative! .

The New Image Band is a CLASS ACT! We received nothing but positive feedback in regards to their performance. Paul is extremely professional, RESPONSIVE, and we plan to book them next year for our Auxiliary Ball of 500+ people. Even the President/CEO of the hosptial asked where we found them ~ and we received feedback from many doctors as to how please they were with the Ball and how outstanding the band's performance getting every one up and dancing and playing a wide range of hits as we have people in their mid 20's all they way up to their mid 80's who attend this event.
HATS OFF TO A CLASS ACT!!! They are truly a musical team with beautiful voices and talent!

The New Image Band really delivered a great performance!!! The song selections were awesome. Everybody at the party had a wonderful time. From the very beginning, they've been very nice and professional. Couldn't ask for a better band and the price cannot be beat. I would definitely recommend this band to friends.
