Lilah: Maddie & Jake van Arkel, October 11, 2025

"We had such a wonderful night celebrating with the Experience! Luke worked with us to make sure everything went smoothly and shared his insights to make the night great and energetic. They did an amazing job learning our new songs!! Bernadette was one of my favorite songs of the night! We got so many compliments from our guests about the band and we stayed on the dancefloor all night! thank you!"

Avalon Yacht Club: Cara & Adam Arywitz, October 18, 2025

"It has been two weeks since our daughter’s wedding at the Avalon Yacht Club and people are still raving over Experience. They made the wedding an unforgettable event and one that we will look back on fondly for years to come."

-Linda (Mother of Bride)

The Ashford Estate: Jenna and Parker, October 4th, 2025

We’re just returning from our honeymoon and reflecting on our wedding weekend, and I wanted to give the biggest thank you to the Experience team.

The band was absolutely incredible and exceeded every expectation we had. We received so many compliments on the quality of the music, the energy, and how seamlessly everything flowed throughout the night. The group truly brought the party to life and created such a joyful atmosphere—our guests haven’t stopped talking about it!

It was such a pleasure working with Luke throughout the planning process as well. His professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine enthusiasm made everything feel easy and exciting.

We’re so grateful!

Pen Ryn Mansion: Tammy and Mathew, August 10th, 2025

We booked Experience through BVTLive after seeing them at a showcase and we could not have been happier with our decision. They are the best wedding band we’ve ever seen and I would still say that even if they didn’t perform at our wedding. Luke, the bandleader, was so great to work with and really created a perfect setlist for us. Everyone else in the band are remarkable musicians/singers and really knew how to get the crowd going. They had people on the dance floor all night long and our guests still cannot not stop talking about how amazing they were. I would highly recommend booking Experience and working with BVTLive for your wedding if you can!

Hamilton Farm Golf Club: Caroline and Nicholas Krausse, June 7, 2025

Good morning. We have finally come down from our wedding high enough to reach out to you. I just have to tell you again how much we and everyone at the wedding loved your band. You are true professionals and you really made Caroline and Nick's wedding so much. Thank you so much for everything... hope to be somewhere where Experience is playing again sometime!!

- Caroline (MOB)

The Union League of Philadelphia: Tess and Blake Mackall, December 28, 2024

So much fun! Experience could not have been more fabulous - they were all so talented and so much fun! Could not recommend them more highly!!!!

The Manor House at Springton Manor Farm: Cara and Pat Zubieta, October 11, 2024

My husband and I had one non-negotiable for our wedding - to have a live band. We went to the BVT showcase and immediately fell in love with Experience. They were a little bit out of our budget, but we decided to book them anyways and cut back on other things and let me tell you ...they were worth every single penny!!! Luke is the nicest, coolest guy and so great to work with!! He listened to every request we had leading up and I truly didn't think about a thing during the wedding day - he had our timeline completely under control and kept us on track (and if we were running behind I still have no idea because he's that good!!). The band is INCREDIBLE and had our guests on the dance floor all night!! I realized at the end of the night I never even changed out of my heels into my white sneakers because that would have meant leaving the dance floor. Our guests are still telling us how amazing the band was and several of them even got their card for their own events! Having Experience was the best decision we made!! Thank you to all of you for making our wedding day so memorable and fun!!

-Cara & Pat (Bride & Groom)

Water Works: Alli and Aaron Stank, August 24, 2024

Experience at Water Works was the absolute perfect band for our wedding. Luke the band leader was amazing and the 11-piece set was incredible. Our guests have been continuously saying it was the best wedding band they've heard. We are so grateful for Luke, Simone, and the entire ensemble for absolutely rocking the entire night. Thank you all so so much, we can't recommend them enough!!

-Aaron (Groom)

Springton Manor Farm: Noor and Drew Miller, June 1st, 2024

A lot of guests came up to me the next day and said how amazing the band was as well. Thank you for being so detailed and genuinely caring about making it a perfect day for them.

-Rachel Kendall (Events Planner)

Lancaster Country Club: Gina and Reid Reinhart, April 27, 2024

If I could give 100 stars I would. I don’t even know where to start! BVT and Experience were beyond anything we could have ever dreamed of. Luke was fantastic with communication and scheduling meetings, and made sure we had exactly what we wanted on our day. We knew that Experience was great listening to their showcases, but the online videos don’t even do them justice. They were the best band we’ve ever had the privilege of hearing at a wedding and brought so much energy, and they even gave us a little sneak peak of our song before our reception started. It’s been 3 weeks are we are STILL getting comments from our guests about how amazing they were! Again, if I could give 100 stars I would. Thank you BVT and Experience, we could not recommend you more!!!

-Gina (Bride)

The Lucy by Cescaphe: Meghan and Rob Heller, February 9, 2024

The Experience Band was a perfect choice for our wedding. We were looking for a combination of contemporary and classic R&B and pop with a brass section and a vibe that will get everyone dancing. The Experience delivered all of that and more. Our wedding was a non-stop dance party and our guests couldn't stop complimenting the band. Luke (the bandleader) was so easy to work with and after one conversation about our taste and desires for the wedding (and some really helpful suggestions about timing and flow of the evening) Luke created a fantastic set list and did an amazing job with the songs they learned especially for us. In addition to their clear musical talent, we were drawn to Luke as an emcee because he is charismatic and fun, but does not take over the evening. The night always felt like it was about us and The Experience Band just added to...well...THE EXPERIENCE! One out of one newly married couples recommend them for your next event.

-Meghan (Bride)

Water Works by Cescaphe: Colette and Peter Pagano, October 13, 2023

We just wanted to thank you and the rest of Experience for the awesome time at our wedding. Experience was exactly what we imagined for our night and you guys rocked the dance floor. We are still getting compliments 2 weeks later.

- Colette & Peter (Newlyweds)

Philadelphia Country Club: Liz and Andrew Stoffer, October 21, 2023

What a fabulous night we had dancing to and being entertained by your band at Liz and Andy’s wedding on Saturday at Philadelphia Country Club. To sum it up in one word: “fabulous!” So many of our guests came up to us to tell us you were the best band ever! You just topped off the evening and helped to make it perfect.

- Bonnie (MOB)

Crystal Tea Room: Amaris and Harrison Schettler, September 29, 2023

I was floored by the INCREDIBLE experience BVTLive! provided us at our wedding. We worked with Experience and it was truly an ideal vendor experience. They were incredibly communicative, and made sure our custom requests were executed flawlessly. Eddie is an experienced industry PRO who worked to make sure the run of show was on point. Luke personally worked with us to curate our playlist and first dances. He made a lasting, personal impression on our friends and family and I can't imagine working with anyone else. They are the real deal and the best Philly has to offer!

- Amaris (Bride)

Yacht Club of Stone Harbor: Meg and Will Tabiti, September 16, 2023

We absolutely LOVED Experience! They performed at our wedding on the Jersey shore and they brought the house DOWN. Seriously, the most common piece of feedback we got after the wedding was how much everyone loved the band. My now husband was extremely hesitant about going with a band for our wedding - he was adamantly pro-DJ - and he looked at me in the middle of the reception and said, "You were ABSOLUTELY right!" He barely left the dance floor all night!

Working with Luke was an absolute delight - he worked in two of my favorite songs for the ceremony, and on short notice. He was also so kind and generous to let some groomsmen perform an impromptu rendition of "Ordinary People" on the fly!

Cibon and Charlene absolutely KILLED it on vocals - the whole band had an incredible energy and kept our guests boogeying all night long.

Truly, the best decision you can make for your big day is to hire Experience! You won't regret it!

French Creek Golf Club: Katherine and Seth Long, August 5, 2023

We had a phenomenal experience with BVTLive! and specifically Experience, our band. They were outstanding and made our event so much fun and very memorable. The atmosphere they created with all their amazing talent was beyond our expectations. I would highly recommend them! Thank you for all you did for our daughter’s wedding!

- Cristy (MOB)

French Creek Golf Club: Katherine and Seth Long, August 5, 2023

We had Experience as our wedding band and we could not have been more thrilled with our time with them. They were very thorough during the planning process; making sure that they coordinated the timelines, song lists, and any special requests we had. Our wedding reception was seriously the MOST fun time EVER thanks to them! We had our guests dancing with us on the dance floor all night long which was exactly what we were hoping for. Each member of the band is so talented and they brought so much life and energy to our dance floor. They are able to play such a wide variety of songs which seemed to make all of our guests happy. After the wedding, the number one thing people have said was how amazing our band was. We would recommend them to anyone! We wish we could relive the night over and over! Thank you so much to BVTLive! and Experience for such a smooth and fun planning process and for the best wedding EVER!

- Katherine (Bride)

John James Audubon Center: Hannah and Robert Fink- June 24, 2023

Incredible band - 10 out of 10!! We honestly could not be more thrilled with BVTLive! and the Experience band's performance for our wedding. We had the BEST time. The music was incredible and did not miss a single beat. We've been getting nothing but the most positive raving reviews from our guests. Would definitely recommend to anyone that they work with them!

- Rob (Groom)

Ballroom at the Ben: Morgan and Brendan Lyons – December 17, 2022

Experience by Eddie Bruce rocked the house!!! Every guest seemed to compliment how great they were. Luke and company were so accommodating the days leading up to and especially the day of. They really know how to organize their gameplan and make sure there is always music being played and people on the dance floor. 10/10!

- Brendan (Groom)

Crystal Tea Room: Christina and Reed McCready – October 22, 2022

We’ve been to a ton of weddings in the area over the last couple of years. We’ve seen all the big names. Eddie Bruce and The Experience are the best. We received more compliments on the band than I could’ve even imagined and I already knew they were the best. Majority of guests reached out specifically to compliment our choice in the band. They had everyone on the dance floor the entire time and sounded amazing!

- Reed (Groom)

Cairnwood Estate: Mikaela and Sean Coll – October 15, 2022

The Eddie Bruce Experience played at my daughter’s wedding and guests are still gushing about how wonderful they were. In fact, some of the guests were so impressed that they want to switch out the band they already hired for their own event and engage Eddie Bruce instead! The band is electric and kept everyone dancing throughout the reception. They have great instincts about what to play at what point and they were a huge part of what made the wedding so special. I am so happy we had them and would recommend them to anyone.

- Christine (Mother of the Bride)

Private Residence in Wayne, PA: Sofia and Ryan O’Neill – September 17, 2022

From the cocktail hour to the last song, Great band!! Great variety. They are every generation’s favorite band. Satisfy every guest! Eddie Bruce is super at announcing the wedding party, the order of the toasts, he makes sure before the wedding that he has it all teed up to get everyone on the dance floor as fast as possible. Eddie’s energy and fun loving personality makes the bride and groom know that he wants them to have the best wedding ever!!
The band Gets everyone on the dance floor and keeps them on the dance floor all night.
The band is Able to respond to the crowd like no other!! If they are available, book them, no question!

- Jeannie (Mother of the Groom)

Crystal Tea Room: Amy and Pete Gubicza – July 16, 2022

We had a BLAST at our wedding with Eddie Bruce Experience (BVT Band). Their voices are UNREAL and it shows that theyre having fun as well. They learned so many songs for us but also knew what songs would work at different times. Eddie met with us prior to plan a timeline that I wanted to maximize the dancing. I couldnt get over how well they did our first dance song and really took time to make us feel so special. We lost count of the number of guests that came up to us after to say how amazing the band was. Such an amazing night! 🙂

- Amy (Bride)

Excelsior Hall: Alexandra and Stephan  Pion – July 9, 2022

We loved working with the entire BVT team and wanted to make sure to express our gratitude.

- Alexandra (Bride)

The Westin Philadelphia: Morgan and Scott Leopold – June 11, 2022

Eddie and his band were absolutely next level awesome. Eddie ran the wedding flawlessly and the band played, sang and entertained our guests with the dance floor packed from the first note to the last. The bride and groom told me It was their dream wedding thanks to the Eddie Bruce Experience.
