Bridal Shower in Castro Valley

Our friends Jamie and Dan decided to throw a joint Bridal Shower for a newly engaged couple. We have to admit, we’d never been part of an event like this before, but one of Jamie’s friends put it best as she took in the lavish setting – “Jamie is such a class act!” The event was both elegant and a ton of fun. Guests were welcomed to specialty cocktails handmade by Jamie’s close friends. As the live music began, guests made their way onto the patio where tables were set with white rose tablecloths and gold dining chairs.

Following the meal (and a few more cocktails, of course), we kicked the music up a notch and really started the party. Guests danced to some of our new additions like “Shut Up And Dance” and “Honey I’m Good,” as well as some of our other favorite folk-pop songs that fit the mood perfectly.

It was certainly an event to write home about! We loved our time with this wonderful group and cannot wait to celebrate with them again.

They were perfect, literally perfect. Through all our questions, requests, demands, inquiries, concerns, rescheduling, on and on and on, they were nothing but gracious, professional, prompt and courteous. Then they showed up and rocked the hell out of absolutely everyone. My wife and I, and every single one of our guests, give them the highest praise possible. And the cherry on top, they let me get on stage and jam with them. We had Ben and his band, which we clearly highly recommend dishing out the extra money for and locking in. Perfect.

The number one priority my bride and I wanted for our wedding was for a night full of dancing--not people begrudgingly on their feet, but truly having the best time on the dance floor. Ben Mallare absolutely delivered that for us. Since getting back from our honeymoon, the first thing people say to us is "that band you had was the best wedding band we've ever seen". If you are reading this review, don't waste another minute--book Ben Mallare--you'll be so glad you did. PS--they even learned a house/electronic song for us by request--they can truly do it all

The entire wedding, we were (and still are) so proud to share the Ben Mallare name and are thrilled we could share our day with them. We could go on and on about how much fun the dance floor was, how engaging the band was with guests, how great the music was, etc., but you should take all of that as an absolute given. Ben Mallare’s band brings together truly talented, hard working and fun musicians. We knew music was going to be a very important part of our wedding weekend and we wanted the absolute best of the best, and we have only the highest recommendation for everything Ben Mallare.
