Ballroom at Ellis Preserve: Bridget and Mike Mattei – December 29, 2017
Back2Life was sensational! They met with us prior to the wedding to discuss song selection and go over various details. The night of the reception they provided and confirmed all last minute details. They had everyone dancing and enjoying the night from the very start. The dance floor was barely big enough - everyone was dancing and singing along to the songs. Their musicianship was exceptional; singing (split among three singers) was terrific; and they had a feel for the crowd and energy. They showed their ability to stretch into various musical genres - all while keeping the crowd entertained. Their last numbers of the night were perfect - they knew exactly how to finish it up and put an exclamation point to everyone's evening! We highly recommend Back2Life for any occasion. They exceeded our expectations and helped make the night fantastic!

Artesano Iron Works: Sarah and George Mayer – October 7, 2017
Working with BVTLive! and our wedding band Back2Life was INCREDIBLE. The entire process from booking to event date was seamless. We attended a BVTLive! showcase after seeing Back2Life at an event. The showcase was so much fun. We immediately booked Back2Life. Working with Marci, Mark, and Kurt was so enjoyable. This is a group of people who truly enjoy what they do and aim to make each event just as special as the next. Their performance at our ceremony and reception was truly stellar. They handled everything! Ceremony music, cocktail hour tunes, introductions, first dance, parent dances, speeches, and other important highlights of the night. Then they truly rocked out for the duration of the evening. Our guests are still saying it was the "best wedding band they've ever heard" and we could not agree more! Thank you BVTLife and Back2Life for being apart of the best day of our lives!

Rehoboth Beach Country Club: Robin and Thom Harvey – July 29, 2017
The band Back2Life was absolutely fabulous in every way. They were great to work with, the play list was extensive, and they sounded amazing.
- Robin (Bride)
_____________________________________________________________________________________________Thom and I would like to say thank you to you and all of the members of Back2 Life for making our reception absolutely spectacular. You all sounded amazing and our guests loved you. The whole evening was so fun! Thank you for being there and working with us. We will definitely recommend you to everyone we know.

Appleford: Taylor and Ron Douglas – June 3, 2017
We chose Back2Life for our wedding, and they were so awesome!! They exceeded our expectations and made our night even better!! They were very responsive to any questions we had and provided a great atmosphere for the night! I definitely would recommend them to anyone!!

Normandy Farms: Nancy and Dylan Garges – March 18, 2017
Back2Life was a pleasure to work with and very professional. Everyone was dancing all night and I cannot tell you how many people commented on how great the band was during and after the wedding. I would highly recommend them to anyone!!
- Nancy
Brantwyn Estate: Nancy and Edward Staley – March 3, 2017
Selecting and hiring Back2Life for our wedding was one of the easiest things we did! The timing of our reception changed a few times in the early stages of planning and BVTLive! was so accommodating as we sorted through the details - in fact every request we made from music selections to set up in the venue was completed as we asked. Back2Life was just as amazing as the first time I'd seen them. The dance floor was full the whole evening and my guests continue to rave about them three months later. There isn't a thing we'd change about the music and we wouldn't hesitate to use BVTLive! again or to refer them to anyone looking for music.

Manufacturer’s Golf and Country Club: Pamela and Joseph Baragona – November 5, 2016
BVTLive! was an incredible addition to our wedding. They were responsive to our needs and very thorough. Everyone was pleasant and respectful. My husband and I absolutely loved our band, Back2Life. They played everything we wanted and more. They helped provide backup music while I played the guitar and sang for my husband in front of almost 200 people. They even played my favorite song so I could sing along with the band. Marci, the lead singer, called and chatted with me for over a half hour to review all of our music needs. We heard so many positive reviews from our guests. Lots said it was the best wedding they'd been to in a long time! The band certainly got everyone on their feet!

Atlantic Sands: Erin and Craig Beebe – October 29, 2016
This band made our entire event , recommend them fully. They were outstanding and went above and beyond.

Berkshire Country Club: Sarah and George Combs – October 8, 2016
BVTLive! is very responsive from the very start. The band we choose, Back2Life, was AMAZING! One of the lead singers met with us in person to discuss our song choices and what not to play as well. She guided us in the right direction in terms of what is the norm for schedule of wedding reception and order of events. The best part was how the band was INCREDIBLE with such high energy!!! Every single one of our 200 guests danced the night away!! We are so happy with our choice and would choose them again if given the opportunity!

Valley Forge Military Academy: Pamela and Bret Maffett – September 24, 2016 – Note
Dear Kurt, Marci, and Back2Life,
You all sure brought the party to our wedding and we cannot thank you enough! We loved the variety of music you played and the first dance song was perfect – We are so grateful that you learned it for us. Thank you so much for helping make our wedding day perfect, we got so many compliments for choosing you all with plenty saying “best band ever!” We are so appreciative and will tell everyone we know to book Back2Life.Sincerely, Pamela & Brett Maffett
Valley Forge Military Academy: Pamela and Brett Maffett – September 24, 2016
Bill set us up with Back2Life as our wedding band this past weekend and we are so incredibly grateful! Look no further than this band, Kurt and Marci did the most incredible job getting together the best song list I've ever heard at a wedding (partially my bias, but we've also had so many compliments from friends and family) and Marci kept everything on track! They had everyone of all ages dancing and singing ALL night! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

The Barn at Silverstone: Kimberly and Justin Plaum – September 17, 2016
AMAZING! We cannot recommend BVTLive! and our band, Back2Life, more. From the start, the entire team was helpful, responsive, and understanding of our vision. Everyone was quick to respond to emails or phone calls, and helped us find the perfect band for our day. The band members were great to work with, and we received so many compliments! Back2Life kept everyone entertained and dancing all night long! We highly recommend this company and band to anyone looking for a great time at a reasonable price!
- Kimberly
I've been meaning to contact you to let you know how much i truly enjoyed working with Back 2 life, specifically Marcy and Kurt! They were phenomenal to listen to, but for me, more importantly to work with and communicate with! I really look forward to working with them again in the future!!!! They seriously were the best!

Penn Museum: Color Guard, Sons of the Revolution Event – September 16, 2016
I wanted to touch base to tell you that Back2Life did a great job on Friday evening. The music was terrific and they were a fun and lively band. We would not hesitate to invite them to play for us again in the future.
Thanks for everything.

National Constitution Center: Teresa and Roman Galas – June 18, 2016
Awesome vendor that hooked us up with an absolutely awesome band: Back2Life. We loved them, would 100% recommend them, and hope to find another event where we can hire them again someday! We found BVTLive! and Back2Life on the BVTLive! website, which is very user friendly. After searching each band's individual links, which contains a detailed song list and video clips from each band, we honed in on Back2Life as the band that spoke to us. We were then able to go see them perform live (for free) at a nearby BVTLive! showcase. The live performance sealed the deal for us, and we hired them that night. A great process for the customer to be sure of what they are getting. Once the ink signed on the contract papers, we then worked directly with the band to fine tune things. The leaders, Marci and Kurt, who are super friendly and nice, met with us in person to get a feel for us, our guests, and their audience. Smart. The band was also more than happy to learn new songs we requested -- and nailed them on our big day! They nailed every other song too! Great versatility too. Marci could have filled in for Sarah Brightman the way she killed "Think of Me" from Phantom of the Opera. Every single person was on the dance floor for the Polish Polka song. And the band just totally rocked out on 80's hair metal staples like Jump, Final Countdown, Purple Rain, and Don't Stop Beleving (which they let us do open mic style so the crowd could join in). They also learned The Promise by one hit wonder When in Rome, just so my husband could serenade me with it! Like I said, so flexible. And we were not the only ones who thought the band killed it - we got so many compliments on them. We really, truly could not have been happier with Back2Life! Thank you!! All in all, a top notch experience. We HIGHLY recommend BVTLive! and Back2Life!!
French Creek Golf Club: Brandywine Hospital Physicians Dinner – April 29, 2016
Just a quick note to tell you how fabulous the band was last night. Kurt and everyone were terrific. I hope to use them in the future at hospital and personal events, too! Thanks for all your help... Looking forward to working with you again. In the meantime, enjoy your weekend and take care,
The Union Trust: Laura and Wyatt France Wedding – March 4, 2016
Back2Live played at our wedding on March 4th, and they were absolutely phenomenal! Everyone that attended raved about them for weeks afterward, they made the reception unforgettable! People danced for hours. The happily learned our wedding song, my parents wedding songs and a few others that have special meaning to us but weren't on the play list. The entire band was friendly, upbeat and kept the crowd going. They even handled an over served guest and grace and class, checking with me to make sure it was ok for them to play a song that was requested. I would recommend them to anyone in need of a band and I am confident that all 125 wedding guests would too!

Philadelphia Marriott Downtown: 2016 Lemon Ball – January 16, 2016
...I wanted to send a thanks to you for your support of The Lemon Ball. The band is always fantastic – they really get the crowd going. We couldn’t do that level of talent without your support!
I know I am (very) biased, but I thought the evening was especially inspiring this year with the amazing award winners and the show of generosity from everyone all night long. I hope you and the team enjoyed it!
Thanks again for your continued support.

Hotel du Pont: Gill-Quinn Wedding – August 22, 2015
"We were BLOWN away by how awesome Back2Life was for our wedding. We did not want all "typical wedding music," so requested some rock music to be played at the end of the evening (e.g., Metallica, Alice in Chains, etc.) and not only did the band learn the songs we requested, but they NAILED them! Our guests raved about how diverse the music was and how, at times, they felt like they were at a concert and just "stopped to listen." I highly reccomend Back2Life for any event (wedding, birthday, anniversary...)."
- Julia (Bride)
Merion Tribute House: Crozier – Pileggi Wedding – September 6, 2015
"People are still talking about how amazing Back2Life was! From first speaking to Bill about logistics to face timing with band leader Kurt a week before the wedding, using BVTLive! it was a really nice and easy process. The band ROCKED the house and our guests loved the high energy and music that had the dance floor packed all night. They were far and away better than I ever imagined and highly recommend using this band and service for your event or wedding!"
- Noelle
Mraz-Carey Wedding – June 27, 2015
"We used BVTLive! to book a band for our oldest daughter's wedding celebration (the actual wedding was in March). BVTLive! was very nice to work with. They were professional and listened carefully to what we were looking for. They recommended the perfect band for our party - Back2Life. The party was in our garden under a tent and unfortunately, there were heavy rains. People got wet and the dance floor got muddy. Back2Life was fabulous! They kept the party going and had everyone dancing. Our guests loved them. Without Back2Life, the party would have been a soggy flop. We're glad we have three more daughters to marry so we can hire them again."
- Dorothy, Mother of The Bride
Chester Valley Golf Club: Eifert – Brown Wedding – May 16, 2015
"Back 2 Life was fantastic and made the wedding great! I can't recommend them enough!! Everyone raved about the music and it definitely made our wedding one of the best our friends and family have attended."

Glen Island Harbour Club: Nathan – Harbour Wedding – May 24, 2015
Hi Kurt, I wanted to drop you a quick note to thank you and everyone in Back2Life for performing at my wedding last weekend!! You were amazing!! We had numerous couples come up to us telling us that we had the best band ever and that you guys made the night so much fun. Thank you so much for making our wedding such a great time and thank you for being so great to work with leading up to the wedding. As I said before, you were the best vendor to work with... I had nothing to worry about. I really appreciate how responsive you were and how you listened to what we wanted, made great suggestions, and followed what we discussed. Will and I also really appreciated that you made the cut of our first dance - that was so crucial as we practiced in the days leading up to the wedding. I could not say enough great things about you and Back2Life.
Thanks again, Jessica
The Windrift Hotel: Lipski – Zehren Wedding – April 18, 2015
Back2Life was amazing. We went to a showcase at Ardmore Music Hall to check out another band that was recommended by a friend for our wedding, but fell in love with Kurt and the rest of the band members. They were energetic, flexible with their song list, accommodating to all of our requests and most importantly kept every one of the dance floor from start to finish. Weeks later we are still getting phone calls complementing the music and raving about how much fun people had at our wedding. Thanks again Back2Life!

The Ballroom at the Ben: Stach – Jara Wedding – January 9, 2015
We had Back2LIfe as our wedding band mainly because we loved them so much from previous weddings. We had the best wedding and the thing most people said was, "the music was amazing!" What we enjoyed most about the band was behind the scenes with Kurt and Marci. They make you feel like you are old friends and we just sat discussed our plans. When they left we all hugged. They made you feel so comfortable. If you want your wedding up and dancing, this is by far the best band to choose!
