BVTLive! Big Ric Rising Performs 6ABC Action News Anchor, Jessica Boyington’s Wedding!
In 2023 we welcomed Jessica Boyington and her husband-to-be Tim Roken to one of our live band showcases to find their potential wedding band. It was there that they met Big Ric Rising, and the rest was history!
Celebrating the new Mr. and Mrs. Roken at the Ballroom at the Ben in February 2024 was a celebration like no other. From start to finish being able to work with, and get to know, such a wonderful power couple made celebrating their big day even sweeter. We love you Jess and Tim, and are so thankful your wedding planning brought us together. February 17th will never be the same!
BVTLive! Performs at Jason Kelce’s Wedding at The Logan Hotel!
BVTLive! had the pleasure of performing the wedding ceremony for Philadelphia Eagles legend, Jason Kelce and his beautiful bride Kylie at the Logan Hotel! The Ceremony was stunning, complete with Eagles players at every turn, and Kelce’s 120lb sheepdog to walk them down the aisle.
Our duo, with Nils Mossblad on saxophone and Jake Calberman on guitar, serenaded the lovely couple as they walked down the aisle. Fun fact: Kelce wanted a saxophonist for his ceremony because he plays sax himself!
BVTLive! Jellyroll shares the stage with Tim McGraw!
Perhaps one of our most noteworthy wedding receptions for our band, Jellyroll, was when a father of the bride surprised his daughter during the father daughter dance with a rendition of My Girl by Tim McGraw, and Tim actually coming out on stage to perform!
This surprise not only shocked the bride, but shocked all of the guests as well as vendors. We knew about the surprise before and had to keep it quiet to make the moment special. It went above and beyond our expectations.
BVTLive! Jellyroll performs at the White House…. Twice!
Jellyroll received perhaps the highest honor bestowed upon a band, and was invited by President Bush and First Lady, Laura Bush, to perform at the 2007 Congressional Ball. The Congressional Ball is attended by Congress as well as additional dignitaries and their guests.
After a private photo session with the President and First Lady in the East Diplomatic Reception Room, Jellyroll performed an almost three hour show only to be asked by President Bush for an additional 20 minute encore. In 2008, Jellyroll was asked back to the White House at the request of First Lady Laura Bush for her 44th high school reunion.
