So Happy we chose the Kensie Jazz Band!
So happy we chose Julie and her amazing band for our wedding. From start to finish they were awesome! They played Jazz and contemporary music for us and even had a pianist with singer for our ceremony. Not only were they amazing, but they were really great to work with through all the challenges COVID presented. We had a couple of delays due to older family and COVID rules, but even through all of that they were more than patient and accommodating with us.
In the end, thanks to the Kensie Jazz Band, we had a beautiful classy wedding everyone will remember. Thanks again!

Highly recommend
Loved having the Kensie Jazz Band play our wedding. Julie was so great to work with, quick to respond to our questions/requests and helped to make the whole process so smooth and seamless. We got so many compliments about the band. Music was a very important aspect in our wedding and this band truly made the night with how great they were. Professional and extremely talented! Thank you!

Fantastic Experience
We had the Kensie Jazz Band play the reception, and they also provided a piano player for the ceremony. The music was a big hit and everyone loved it. The musicians were very flexible and were able to perform one of my own compositions flawlessly.
Additionally, communication with the band prior to the event was good. It was very clear what they needed and responses were very timely. I would highly recommend them.

Amazing from beginning to end
They were awesome, we had a backyard wedding and they worked well with the atmosphere and ambience of the night. They showed up on time, set up quickly and played our cocktail hour and buffet dinner service. The neighbors even told us they had dinner on their patios so they could enjoy the music. Amazing all around
