“We had a combined live band and DJ/emcee — an acoustic duo played during our ceremony, the full four-piece band played acoustics during the cocktail hour, and the band played during the reception, with the DJ playing in between sets as well as acting as emcee throughout the night. This was all provided by The Messengers, a Chicago-based band. We booked them by chance — one night early in our wedding planning stages, Chris and I were out at a pub and The Messengers were playing. I jokingly said to him, ‘This band is great, I wonder if they do weddings?’ And he said, ‘Let’s ask!’ We did, and they do, so we met with them in a separate, more formal meeting and booked them!”

“I have been booking The Messengers since 2011. Their song catalog is amazing. They sing current and old favorites. In my world, the cash register ringing is what I’m looking for, and The Messengers make it ring! My biggest problem is trying to keep them as regular performers at my bar. Everyone who hears The Messengers wants to hire them for parties and other events. They are fast becoming a Chicago favorite, and I wouldn’t be surprised if soon I can’t afford them.”
Jon Corry, Chicago Bar Manager
“You guys were fabulous!! I am still getting notes and text messages asking about The Messengers and saying that you aren’t only great entertainers, but innovative and talented musicians as well. We all know that’s not always the case! Thank you again for making our Oktoberfest such an amazing success!”
