Without question the best wedding decision we made was hiring the Louis Pettinelli band for our entertainment 🎶

From the very first interaction when Louis returned my call at 10:30 PM(!!) to begin the process of planning for our daughter’s not-too-far in the future wedding in Basalt, Colorado, which went off spectacularly well, two weeks ago today, Louis was a gem to deal with. Having had a VERY Frustrating experience with another band and their unwillingness/challenges in communicating, we were stunned by how friendly, attentive, thorough, thoughtful, and professional Louis, and in the end, everyone of his band members, were to deal with. He made the entire planning process, which included having to almost daily hound us to provide him song preferences/timing/everything that makes a wedding go off flawlessly, I can’t begin to say how wonderful he was to deal with.

Then there was the MUSIC!!!!! Absolutely unbelievable from beginning to end… The musicians were incredibly professional, arrived promptly, and were completely set up well in advance of the service, AND every single member of our 8 piece band was a delight to deal with. The music for the service, processional and recessional, cocktail hour, and then once we all moved inside to the beautiful antique barn which they nearly lit on FIRE with their energy, the entire evening was perfection! I don’t think for a minute that anyone could sit in their chairs! Since we chose not to have a sit down dinner but passed hors d’oeuvres all night, the only comments that we got the next day were that people left hungry because they couldn’t take a break from the dance floor! It was a good problem to have! I truly can’t even believe how fortunate we were :-)

We couldn’t recommend Louis Pettinelli one bit higher! You’ll see from your first phone call what a delightful experience you’ll have. Put everything in Louis’s hands and you’ll be so glad that you did. Thank you thank you thank you, Louis!!!!

We booked Intrinsic Groove through Louis Pettinelli Entertainment for our wedding in North Dalls, TX, and could not be more thrilled with the whole experience. The folks at LPE were so easy to work with, and accommodated all our crazy requests right up until our wedding date (a groovy rendition of Andrew W.K.'s "Party Hard" to open up the dance floor?!? ✅). The band brought the energy, rocked the event barn's rafters, and had literally everyone on the dance floor. They brought our vision to life perfectly, and we cannot recommend them enough. We only hope that our guests' made the night as memorable for the band, as it was for all of us.

We enjoyed the amazing talent this jazz trio brought to our wedding. They were able to play the various jazz standards that we requested incredibly musically and with obvious improvisational skill. We'd hire again!
