    Incredible People & Music

    Due to COVID-19, we ended up deciding to elope in our backyard with just some family & we planned the whole thing in ONE WEEK. We contacted Melonbelly to see if they could work with us, and they were so incredibly accommodating! They learned our first dance song for us and were overall a pleasure to work with. I 100% would recommend them to anyone looking for fun, chill and easy to work with musicians!

    We had Melonbelly for our reception in downtown Raleigh last night and they were amazing! It was important to us to have live music at our wedding and they did not disappoint! As soon as we got to the reception guests were raving about the music during the cocktail hour. Clifton and Burke even learned a song for our first dance and we keep bringing up how special that was. They had everyone enjoying themselves the whole night. Melonbelly played a huge role in our wedding and we feel lucky to have had them!

    We absolutely loved having Melonbelly for our wedding band! They are so laid back, easy to work with, and accommodated all of our requests. They played beautiful acoustic music for both our ceremony and reception, but they were able to pump up the volume and get the crowd into it later in the night. We couldn't have asked for anything more and are so happy we chose Melonbelly for our wedding!

    The Melonbelly band was absolutely amazing! They were able to provide both pre-recorded music and live music throughout the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. These guys were professional, responsive, and were able to accommodate our requests with ease. They kept our dance floor full with a great mix of music that got all the generations out there. You can’t beat live music!

    I work in the wedding industry and had worked on several weddings with Melonbelly and loved them! When my sister was planning her wedding, I suggested that she look into hiring them. She researched and then contacted them after loving their music. Clifton and Burke are wonderful musicians and great people. They are easy to work with, very professional, and go along with things very well when plans change or details are added. All of the guests (young and old) loved their music, and they are also very good at announcements/intros/etc. We were so appreciative of everything they did and we highly recommend them!

    It was our pleasure Corina! Thank you for this review!! We appreciate your taking the time to do that!

    Melonbelly did such an amazing job for our wedding. They did the ceremony and reception music and added to the quaint feeling we were going for. Our wedding wouldn't have been as perfect as it was without them. We had many of our guests come up to us and tell us how much they loved the band. They learned how to play our first dance song ( just a few weeks before the wedding) and did an awesome job. Not only are they great at what they do they are great people to work with too. Thanks again Melonbelly :-)

    Melonbelly was the perfect fit for our mountain wedding reception! They are amazingly talented, played all the songs we love, and they were a pleasure to work with. The energy and flow of our reception was simply perfect, thanks to them. It was so nice to not have to worry about this aspect of the evening. We knew that they had everything under control, and they delivered an above and beyond performance. The only thing I would change is to have had them play longer!

    Burke and Cliff were amazing! They performed our ceremony and reception music; could not have ask for better. Our vineyard wedding and wine-bar feel for our reception was spot on with Melonbelly. Everyone was able to enjoy the music and have conversations without yelling. It was perfect. These guys are the professionals and choosing them you will not go wrong!

    Thanks

    Clifton and Burke are Class A fellows. They provided both the ceremony as well as reception music for our outdoor wedding. We were looking for a balance between good, fun music for people to dance to, but something that would allow relaxation and conversation for others. Melonbelly hit the nail on the head! We gave them very little guidance as far as the type of music we wanted for the reception. With the rest of the planning we had going on, we left it all up to them, and they were spot on. You will not meet a nicer couple of guys, or find a more talented duo. We consider ourselves fortunate to have had them part of our day.

    Thanks,
    Jenna and Andy

    Melonbelly performed during our rehearsal dinner in Winston-Salem, NC - they did a fantastic job! They played a great set of music and I heard lots of guests comment on how awesome they thought the band was. Melonbelly was the perfect addition to help make our rehearsal dinner a night to remember! Cheers to Melonbelly!!

    Cliff and Burke were phenomenal to work with! They are so personable, professional and talented!
    From the beginning of planning until the wedding, they had great communication and professionalism throughout the year.
    Family musicians and recording engineers that were at the wedding were all very impressed with Melonbelly and complimented me several times on my musicians, which meant alot to me, coming from other industry people!
    My brother-in-law, who is a recording engineer that has worked with big name artists (such as Whitney Houston, Elton John, Cee-Lo, Usher, etc) and won a Grammy award last year, told me that he thought Cliff and Burke were FABULOUS! Enough said!
    I highly recommend Melonbelly

    We loved Melonbelly. They were absolutely perfect for our wedding. The music choices were great and everyone was dancing the entire time. My grandfather even danced which no one in my family had ever seen! They were also very easy to get in touch with and quickly responded back to all emails, which was so helpful. Cannot think of a single bad thing to say.

    We found Melon Belly on the internet and it was an absolute treasure! They were so open to all of our requests and ideas. On the night of our reception they stunned our guests with great music and personality. They are far from any cheesey DJ you may have seen or heard before. They are the picture of professional fun and talent. They made our reception not just fun but an absolute blast. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a combo of live and radio music.

    Before the wedding, Clifton from Melonbelly was always easy to reach and super helpful in the planning process. The duo is extraordinarily professional and always strived to make my wedding day a very memorable experience. They are very talented and their performances are spot-on. I would highly recommend them.
