Recommend a good band, singer, etc for reception (Part 3)

[ayouweinlove]

Hello fellow brides!


I recently won a free performance from a soloist worth 7,500
Inclusions are 1 set of live dinner music and solo performance.

If anyone interested just send a pm, pwede tawaran since I just won this. I paid my band in full na kasi. I didn't expect naman to win

Hi mga sis! Booked Infinite Soul Acoustic for our wedding.
Kinuha namin yung fullband + L&S para hindi na kami mamroblema.

Ask ko lang, kinuha kasi namin si team Monica. Okay ba sila?

hello sis, they were my wedding band din and sila rin kinuha ng mga friends ko (even my bridesmaid na kinasal lang last month) .  Infinite Soul Acoustic is one of the best wedding band based on the wedding forums na nabasa ko . And thats why sila kinuha ko. Underrated pa nga sila sa forums, mas magaling sila if papanoorin mo sila ng live kesa sa youtube lang.

^talaga sis? Team Monica ka din?
Thanks, napapanatag na loob ko.

we got Manila Philharmonic Orchestra for ceremony and reception. i must say they are one of our most favorite suppliers ever!! hubby and I were very particular sa entertainment na kukunin namin, we always notice it kasi when we attend weddings. lakas makasira ng mood yung pangit na music. we had a quartet plus singer - we requested for LJ and she's amazing!!! on the day of our wedding, we were blown away! sa church palang goosebumps na. i wanted to clap after every song. i get teary eyed everytime i hear them perform the songs that we chose. during the reception i really wanted to pause for a while and just watch.

tip lang: choice of song is very important. just because they are good doesn't necessarily mean they will be able to deliver any song very well. my friend who recently got married also got MPO pero they got a male singer and halos puro pop/alternative/rock songs yung napili nila, like ed sheeran, u2, coldplay etc. i mean it was really painful to hear the singer na pumipiyok at hirap na hirap sa song. if you're getting a strings, make sure lang na the songs you choose are bagay sa instruments. i didn't realize this before, i also didn't notice nung wedding namin if we had the same problem. but i dont know, maybe its just because of the male singer. sayang lang kasi we were really looking forward to seeing them again after our wedding at medyo high ang expectations tapos ganun ang nangyare.

^ Hi bzbee how much did you get MPO? 

[lots-o]

Hi sis im getting MPO too, good to hear a good feedback from them . I initially booked quartet pero baka magadd ako singer but my friend referred this singer , actually gift nila samin yung singer, Ok naman sya sa MPO kasi 7K ata additional. Do you have by any change a video of the singer for me to compare?

^talaga sis? Team Monica ka din?
Thanks, napapanatag na loob ko.

yes sis si Team Monica of Infinite Soul Acoustic. Ok na ba lahat ng suppliers mo?

[Cheroppy]

^Almost complete na sis, supplier meals na lang sa pagkakaalala ko. :p

[kaitlynmischa]

My coordinator suggested para cost efficient, aside from strings, DJ na lang and not hire band anymore since may strings. But ok lang ba na walang DJ, hindi talaga ako fan ng after party. I'm thinking after quartet, mag soloist ako or trio or what. Not DJ! Is it normal? Para sa akin kasi hindi ko talaga napapansin ang DJs sa wedding.

^My coordinator recommended both Madz & Dheiz and also Artuz for L&S and we booked them during a bridal fair in Tagaytay. This was before I started reading blogs and reviews about them. But now that I already did, I'm glad maganda naman pala ang mga reviews and I'm confident that they will deliver. My reception host has also worked with both so kabisado na nila mga galaw ng isa't isa. I've met Madz in person na rin and she's really warm and kind and was patient with all my questions and open to learning songs in case na di pa yun kasama sa repertoire nila.

[iana_umali]

Highly recommended talaga si Madz & Dheiz! One of my favorite suppliers! Daming good feedbacks from our guests ang galing daw ng singers namin.

Good to know sis! We only booked their quartet pero I'm thinking of upgrading to full band kasi may kasama na yun 10 songs for the after party and syempre mas buo yung tunog kapag full band nga naman.

You should check out Ralph Padiernos! He usually posts his Live performances on his Fb page. Lucky to have him as our wedding singer, super galing!

[pr1tzie]

So excited to see Infinite Soul Acoustic perform on our wedding day! Mas lalo kong na-excite when I read the feedbacks here!

I asked for Team Monica. pero nung pinapanood ko un vids nya sa YT parang iniipit un boses? ganon din ba pag-live?

Thank you sissies! Booked them during the wedding fair last weekend!

[shygirlme]

Hindi na pala sa Sound Salad si Teejay and Sandy. The Ortiz Duo na sila. try nyo sila icheck.

Hello mga sis! We got Madz and Dhzei for our wedding last Dec 3 and here's my review:

CHURCH STRINGS / CHOIR - P 5,000
10/10 : Madz & Dzhei Band - TRIO : Violin | Pianist | Singer [Madz]

Grabe, sobrang ganda ng boses ni Madz! Ang galing nila. Honestly, nung bridal march ko parang sarado ang utak ko, wala akong naririnig. Napakinggan ko lang talaga sa raw vids. It was our last minute decision talaga. Dapat mag mp3 / downloaded songs lang kami kahit sa church because of our budget, pero we can say that, getting them was one of our best decisions na ginawa. Kahit liturgical, sobrang ganda ng boses talaga, heaven!

Ang ganda ganda ng rendition nila ng bridal march song namin, to think na hindi mainstream yung song. We chose IKAW AT AKO by Johnoy Danao. Nung pinakinggan ko yung raw clip kuha sa mobile ng isa kong friend, literal na-teary eyed ako sa ganda ng version niya with piano and violin accompaniment. Kahit guests namin, napatanong pa after ng wedding, may mga nagmessage pa sakin kung ano daw title ng bridal march song namin. Hindi raw popular pero sobrang nakakaiyak daw kasi yung lyrics akmang akma for wedding at yung kumakanta ang ganda ganda daw ng boses. We transferred that copy sa mobile ko and every time we listen/watch the vid, nakaka goosebumps parin. Sobrang highly recommended!

My full review is posted in Supplier's review thread.

Hope this helps mga sis and happy preps!

^^we're also looking for a band. And our top picks are infinite soul, madz and dzhei and totally mesmerized, when we ask our family about their opinion, nadivide yung vote. Me and hubby to be wanted infinite soul at first because of their reggae style of singing pero when we heard the other two, parang narealize namin yung boses ni monica iniipit nga. Hindi tulad nung kay madz and dzhei na maganda, but mas may dating yung kanta ng totally mesmerized lalo na sa blending ng voices. Buti na lang kulang yung money namin pang dp sa bridal fair kasi iboobook na talaga namin si infinite soul kasi nakapromo sila. Ngayon we're torn down to two, kasi gusto namin may violin and sax, pero si totally mesmerized which is our really bet, additional sya kaya mas magmamahal ng konti kesa kay madz and dzhei. Gusto namin maconvince na mas worth si totally mesmerized before we booked them, any brides here na naging band si totally mesmerized? Thanks!

[winkar22]

^ Medyo agree din ako about Infinite Soul (Monica). Boses ano sya. Uhmm. Basta. Ewan ko kung sadya nya ba ipitin or what pero hindi ko trip. Madz is way, way better. I will be crossing out Infinite Soul sa list ko. 

[iana_umali]

Yes +1000 for Madz

[exquisitegem]

^^The same reason na hindi namin binook yung Infinite Soul. Nasa Bridal fair kami nun, ibobook na sana namin kaso inulit ulit namin yung mga videos e hindi din nagustuhan masyado ni H2b. And sa harap ng booth ni Infinite Soul yung Muzik Qlass. Tapos umuwi kami at nireview yung mga videos. Mas nagustuhan namin sila so bumalik kami at sila binook namin. Madz and dzhei are not available na kasi noon sa wedding date namin. Sila din ang top choice ko before.
