Worth the Money! 11/5/2009

David Rothstein Band played for our wedding on 10/02/09. My husband was very unsure about getting a band vs a DJ, he was not convinced that it was worth the cost. But , after meeting with David and seeing that it wasn't just about the music its about the whole flow of the wedding we decided to go with the band. We could not have been happier!!! We went with the full horns section and had Lou sing for us over dinner. THE HORNS ARE A MUST!!!! We didn't have to worry about a thing the whole night. The band is very professional and has their act together. Well Done. more

Fabulous band! 11/1/2009

David Rothstein and his band played at my brother's wedding a few weeks ago, and they did an amazing job! The music was fun and I couldn't believe how much energy the band-members had, they kept playing for hours! Everyone at the wedding was having a blast, and there was dancing for hours, which I think was largely due to the wonderful entertainment. They even played the Beatles song ""Hey Jude"" for my nephew Jude = ) Thanks for a great night and a fun time! more

Amazing and Energetic Band! 10/7/2009

We used David Rothstein Music for our wedding and could not have been happier with the night! They did an amazing job of getting EVERYONE on the dance floor all night long... They did a great job learning about us and listened to what we'd want to hear... It was like our own personal upbeat concert! They did a great job with the Klezmer portion of the night, getting all of the older guests involved, and they did an amazing job with the mainstream music. \r \r My husband is from New Zealand, so they did a great job learning some NZ music to add to the night and we requested they learn ""Land Downunder."" They put so much into learning the song that it really made the night. They even brought out a flute to stay really true to the song, which was the talk of the night! It was really impressive. \r \r Tons of our guests went out of their ways to tell us how amazing the band was and that it was the most fun wedding they'd ever been to! If you're looking for a quite night for your wedding, this is not the band for you... We had an amazing night, thanks to the music and I've never been so exhausted in my entire life! more

Excellent Band 10/1/2009

David Rothstein and his 10 piece band is fabulous! They played at my sister's wedding and I was very impressed. The music was upbeat; he kept people dancing and he also did a few fun games during the night to break up the hours of dance music. This really helped to keep everyone interested in the evening's activities. I highly recommend his band!\r more

Enjoyable Wedding Band 8/30/2009

David Rothstein Music was a part of our wedding planning that we did not get worked up about because of the excellent organization, experience, and professionalism of the band. To compliment that, the band was awesome and even came off stage at times to work the crowd. Our dance floor was always crowded and we still get compliments today about the band. Numerous people have come up to us saying how the night started with such energy from when we first entered the reception hall and this energy never died. They are talented and very involved, ensuring that \r the night goes smoothly and most importantly, that everyone has a good time. Plus, they are even willing to learn songs if necessary, and that was huge for us. \r Nate and Lisa Pros: Organized, Professional, Good Sound more

Oh what a night! 8/14/2009

I hired the David Rothstein Band for my wedding on July 31, 2009 and my guests haven't stopped talking about how great and fun they were. They added so much energy to the room. They engaged the guests in alot of fun dances. They created special moments for me..the bride...and my new husband to interact and bond with our guests...our loved ones! This band was worth the money! They kept us dancing from the moment we stepped in the ballroom, in between meal courses, and all thru the night. I wanted a do over at the end of the night because i was having so much fun that i didn't want it to end....ever!!! \r Valorie Stansberry Pros: Leaders of Fun! more

Very fun wedding band! 7/28/2009

We hired David and his 9-piece orchestra for our June 5 wedding and were very happy with our experience. The reception music was one of the things we decided would be a bigger portion of our budget, and I'm so glad we did as it was worth every penny. Everyone had a blast dancing at our wedding--we're still getting tons of comments about how great the band was. David's musicians are extremely talented and professional, and David himself has a thorough understanding of his business. Ultimately, he knows how to get people out onto the dance floor and having a blast. He also has an arranger on staff and was flexible with our special requests. They let my sister play lead clarinet with the band on the song we selected for our father-daughter dance, which was a surprise for me and one of my favorite memories of our wedding day. I would definitely recommend David et al to anyone looking for great wedding entertainment. As far as the pricing, I recommend negotiating with David as he was very willing to work within our budget. more

David's Band+Our Wedding = Energy, Excitement & Fun!! 7/21/2009

David was a true professional from the very first day we met him. His passion and excitement was evident throughout the scheduling and planning process. Our wedding was held at the Hyatt Lodge, Oak Brook, on Friday, July 17th. David put together a string quartet for our ceremony, the jazz trio for the cocktail hour, the 5 piece ensemble for dinner and the 11 piece orchestra for the reception which included ""Lou"", the Frank Sinatra crooner. The energy level by the entire band was electric and had everyone dancing and laughing till the very end. The performances were over-the-top, and our guests are still raving about David Rothstein and his band!! Not only was he a top-notch vendor, we now consider him a friend!\r \r Sincerely,\r \r Mark & Sharon Pros: Outstanding energy from start to finish! more

Outstanding Wedding Reception 7/20/2009

David was easy to deal with throughout the quoting process and once we contracted David Rothstein Music to perform at our wedding, all deliverables were met on-time. David followed up early and often and this made me feel very comfortable. David even agreed to do a special request song that was not on the list! We opted to go with the Dinner and Dancing package and I would highly recommend this. The 3 piece orchestra during cocktail hour was amazing and once the doors to the reception hall were opened it was awesome to see a 10 piece band! David kept the wedding moving and everyone had a great time! Everyone raved about the band and said that this was the best wedding they have ever been to! We could have had our reception in a corn field and if David Rothstein Music was performing at the reception it would have been awesome. Feel confident in choosing David Rothstein Music for your event! Pros: Outstanding Music, Outstanding Emcee, On-Time more

Terrific Band And Really Fun Time! 7/15/2009

David Rothstein Music performed at our wedding on April 18. Everybody had very positive things to say abotu DRM. David was professional throughout the entire process; indeed, we chose his band over two others because we thought he was less pushy and more pleasant to deal with. David has a good sense of humor and is very organized. He helped us understand how the process worked and then of course the big evening he and his band were fantastic. While initially we didn't know what to make of the line dance, many of our friends have remarked how much they loved it and we have awesome photos from it! I heartily recommend DRM for your wedding and look forward to referring him to many, many friends in the future. Pros: Great band, fun style more

A great time with a great band! 6/30/2009

My wife and I were married May 9, 2009, and had a wonderful experience hiring David to take care of our music for both the ceremony and reception. We were able to pick from an extensive song list, encompassing any variety of music we could want to choose from, to create our perfect song list. One of the best parts was being able to pick songs we wanted that the band had not played before. The band did a phenomenal job accommodating our requests, and our guests had a great time dancing and enjoying an excellent performance! I would highly recommend David to anyone who wants to have music a cut above the rest for any type of special occasion! Pros: An excellent experience all the way. more

Amazing Band, Great Emcee. What a package! 2/8/2009

DRM was spectacular. Our daughter's wedding was several months ago (see Erica'a review) but the comments keep coming. While we knew DRM was going to be fantastic, we have been overwhelmed by our guests comments. We had very definite ideas of the flow of the wedding and what we expected of the MC. David was extremely easy to work with, explaining how he would pull off exactly what we wanted. Here we are five months later and our guests are still raving about the band. The ceremony was elegant and the reception was a blast. This was the first time I've ever attended a wedding where the food service was delayed because everyone was having too much fun to leave the dance floor. And as the bride and groom had hoped, most guests stayed long after dessert just to enjoy the band. Thanks for working with the bride on her solo, and thanks for making this truly a night to remember for all of us. Pros: The sound, the energy, the personaility, the works. more

Excellent Band 12/9/2008

We chose to have David Rothstein and his band for our wedding on October 18. We had the jazz trio and then the 10 piece band after dinner. They were excellent! They had everybody up and dancing. They interacted with the crowd as well, which was awesome! Everyone had such a great time dancing to all of the songs played. DRM knew just what to play and everyone enjoyed! We have since received so many compliments about what a great band we found for the wedding. DRM was so nice to work with, very organized, and they helped to make our day so very special! more

Best Band in Chicago...hands down! 11/24/2008

For our November 9, 2008 wedding, we hired the David Rothstein Orchestra and knew from the minute we met David that our night would be spectacular. In our initial meeting, David was so professional and energetic and unbelievably organized. We spoke or emailed regularly up until the actual wedding day, which was something I appreciated. On our wedding night, DRM played the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception and I can't express enough how much they exceeded my every expectation. Each musician and singer was extremely talented and, when I walked into the room and saw the 11-piece band set up, I was blown away! This band truly made our wedding night magical with their choice of songs, high energy and endless enthusiasm for each and every piece played. At one point, I looked across the dance floor and saw the horn section playing right there on the floor with the guests! I couldn't believe it! If you are looking for a band for any occasion, the David Rothstein Orchestra comes with my highest recommendation. David is a true professional and has a way of making the stress of wedding planning melt away with his ability to take charge and be that ""go-to guy!"" People are still talking about how great this band was and I simply can't say enough about them. David, all I can say is thank you, thank you, thank you for making our wedding so memorable. Pros: Excellent MC, unbelievably talented musicians, professional and SO MUCH FUN!!!! Cons: Not one! more

Best Wedding Band In Chicago! 11/13/2008

David Rothstein is by far the best wedding band in Chicago. David is great to work with and really goes above and beyond to make your wedding the best night ever. He gets to know the bride and groom and adds personal touches to the evening. Months after the wedding we are still receiving compliments about how fantastic the band was and comments like ""we never dance at weddings but this band just made us get up and go!"" I would recommend David Rothstein for your wedding reception and ceremony - you will not be disappointed! more
