Big Fun Brass Band

One of our favorite parts of our wedding was Big Fun Brass Band! Everyone loved them!!! From our ceremony music to our secondline to our reception, they made our day. Not only were they extremely talented musicians, but they also did such a great job of choosing the perfect song to keep everyone on the dance floor. Once the dancing started, the dance floor was PACKED for our entire reception! They were so engaging and we all had so much fun at our reception!! Many of our guests told us that Big Fun Brass Band was their favorite part of our wedding from the secondline to the dance floor and we couldn't agree more! In addition to being amazing on our big day, they were so easy to work with and provided me with updates and great communication. We cannot thank them enough for making our wedding such a blast!!

Thank you all for helping make our come back story and grand re-opening after the hurricane even more special!

They took care of all the details and coordination, so all we had to do was show up and have fun! As a first time second liner and first timer booking a band, their coordinator Abby made the process seem so easy!

Y’all were amazing and we had a absolute blast, we look forward to working with y’all again in the future 😃

We had a destination wedding in New Orleans and booked this wonderful group way in advance. Cory was prompt in getting with me and getting everything set up and then ABBY OMG such a great help kept up with me from booking time thru day of. She also kept me on schedule for the wedding. I highly recommend using them if I could give them 10 stars i would! the Grand Marshal and the band kept our guest entertained and movin to the groovin!!!

Fabulous time with the
Big Fun Brass Band this past Sunday. The bride & groom as well as all the guests had a blast.

As the mother of the bride in Chicago I have to say Cory did an outstanding job coordinating her event. Thank you Cory

These guys were great! Such nice gentlemen, punctual, and professional! I was hosting a group of 9 girls and it was such a treat to get that New Orleans vibe in the courtesy of our own home during these times of covid. They were a terrific band and even came with a playlist to keep the party going while they took a short break! They were so fun and were exactly what i was looking for! I would highly recommend them for any backyard bbq or event you have planned!

Big Fun Brass Band was such a hit with all my guests!

They arrived early, played amazingly, and really added that special someone to the day!

I would hire again for sure!

The French Delegates from our sister-city in Meylan, France, Loved the 2nd line experience. Thank you.

I had the pleasure of having them as a 2nd line after my wedding in the French Quarter. I cannot say enough good things about them! They made the planning process extremely easy and were highly professional. They really do have this thing down to a science. Our guests had so much fun and it was for sure one of the highlights of our wedding. Would absolutely recommend them!

Great experience. Will definitely book them again for next brass band and/or second line. They made it one stop shopping. Very easy to book. Directed me step by step via current links. Payment via Venmo was super easy. All correspondence was quick and professional. Thank you Big Fun Brass Band for a Fantastic time!

We had Big Fun Brass Band play for the 2nd line at our wedding. They organized with the police to get our permits so we didn't have to worry about anything but just having fun! It was the highlight of our wedding day and our guests can't stop talking about it. The band chose the route and we got to 2nd line down Magazine Street which was a once in a lifetime opportunity for our guests who came from all over the world. It was a really special day and Big Fun Brass Band was such a huge part of that. We are so thankful!!

These guys were amazing.
Prompt, professional and incredibly helpful as we planned from Florida. I highly recommend this fun group of talented musicians. Our daughters wedding second line through the rain was unforgettable.

Big Fun played my entire reception and they rocked it! They were super easy to work with, and they let us know what was going on every step of the way. As a professional musician and high school band director, I can say that this group is the real deal. 10/10 would recommend.

Big Fun Brass Band was a PLEASURE to work with! I had a few weird song requests for my husband’s 40th birthday Second Line Parade, and they played it all beautifully! They were on time, easy to book and work with, and the music was phenomenal! Makes me want to come back to NOLA more often to throw parades just for fun! Thanks again guys!!!

Our school hired the Big Fun Brass Band to help us celebrate our centennial in New Orleans. David and the musicians were an amazing addition to the festivities. The second line across campus helped create just the right celebratory atmosphere. They could not have been any easier to work with from first contact to the end of the second line. The Big Fun Brass Band leading the second line was a highlight of our centennial celebrations!

They were wonderful from start to finish! They helped with planning the route and getting the needed permits. The parade itself was so much fun and the music was wonderful. I highly recommend them!

The Big Fun Brass Band really live up to their name. We had a small wedding in nola, most of us were from out of town and the big fun brass band made everyones experience fun and amazing. The band was very prompt, open, professional and great with communication all throughout the planning process. David Will was my main contact and he explained everything and answered all my questions. The nand was on time for our wedding march throght the french quarter. They were friendly and listened tome and played the songs we requested. They are also very skilled and talented. My guest's said it was the most fun they've ever had at a wedding and are still talking about it. Book these guys you will not be disappointed if you want professionalism and an authentic New orleans experience!

Highly recommend going with this band. You just need to tell them what you want and show up. It is that simple.

Thank you to David and the Big Fun Brass Band for an amazing New Orleans experience! Our second line parade was amazing from start to finish - fun, fantastic music. I also hired them to coordinate the police escort and necessary permits. Everything was perfect, thank you!

My experience with this group was stellar. They always responded quickly in communications, they tackled all the details, and their performance and attitude were superb. Thank you so much for an incredible memory!

I hired these guys to do a trade show and play from my booth. The trade show organizers thought it was odd but allowed it. Turns out, it made my booth the hit of the evening. We only hosted three of the member, Tuba, Trumpets, and Banjo, but they put on a great show and sounded amazing for the whole event. We received several comments on their performance. Definitely going to hire them again when I am back in the New Orleans area! Great guys too!

We hired the Big Fun Brass Band for our annual Fat Tuesday Mardi Gras party at Lucy Buffett’s LuLus at Homeport. We needed a band last minute and fortunately they were available and obliged. Their music was authentic New Orleans brass band and Dixieland standards, and met our expectations 100%! I highly recommend this band for any event!

We used Big Fun Brass Band to host a corporate event and they were amazing! Everyone enjoyed the music!!

Couldn't have booked a better band. From booking to performing, they were the best to work with.

So easy to work with! Took care of everything snd gave us a night to remember! Thank you all so much!

Working with this group was easy and fun, and they delivered just at promised for my birthday parade.

I put a second line parade to kick off a bachelor party in the band's hands (Corey's specifically) and they completely exceeded expectations. We met them at a bar and at the agreed on time, they started playing. The groom was shocked. From there, we went out into the French Quarter and started picking up strangers to join the parade as we made out way to Bourbon Street. The parade was the perfect start to a memorable weekend and it wouldn't have happened without Big Fun Brass Band's help (especially arranging the police escort!). Thanks, fellas!

Great to work with! Easy transactions. My Fiancee had a great time as her and her girlfriends marched alongside the band down Bourbon Street. Highly recommend and would book again!

The highlight of our daughter's wedding was the Second Line led by the Big Fun Brass Band. Corey the leader ensured that the playlist was perfect. If looking for the perfect NOLA band , this is it!

Big Fun was one of our wedding highlights. You should hire them for your wedding! Corey was a pleasure to work with -- super responsive and helpful with all manner of details from start to finish-- and the band members were not only professional but they also brought a ton of spirit to our wedding reception. Our guests raved about the second line (I even caught my Uncle, who never ever dances, bopping down the streets of the French Quarter, grinning from ear to ear) and my husband and I will never forget the sight of our closest family and friends parading through the streets with the sounds of the Big Fun Brass band echoing through the Quarter. We also hired a Big Fun horn player for our wedding ceremony and he went above and beyond his portion of the contract by entertaining our guests as they waited for a late bus to bring the last of the guests to the ceremony site.

Big Fun Brass Band was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! They performed our Second Line Parade as well as our Jazz Trio for the reception. Big Fun has top quality musicians and are consummate professionals. From getting the parade route permitting to taking requests at the reception, they are very easy to work with and provide great quality service! You cannot go wrong with Big Fun!

We hired Big Fun Brass Band for a welcome reception for an industry conference and they delivered, big time! They were so much fun and people were dancing within minutes of them starting up. I highly recommend hiring them, and would use them again if I have an event in New Orleans in the future.

I booked Big Fun to do a parade performance for a convention group during their general session. The group did everything we asked of them in a professional and fun manner. Their sound was great and really got the crowd going. I will definitely use them again.

Big fun was AWESOME!!!! THEY WERE PROFESSIONAL, COURTEOUS, AND PLAYED THEIR HEARTS OUT FOR OUR WEDDING!!!. I asked them to bring the energy and they brought it. I 100% recommend Big Fun brass band for all of your music needs!!!

Thank you,
Sam and Claire

Big Fun Brass Band were extremely professional, easy to get in contact with, they have a rain or shine policy in their agreement, and best of all they are just a fantastic band.

We arranged a small second line parade for 7 people for our friends' bachelor party weekend in NOLA. And he was blown away at how much fun the whole event was. We were able to keep it a surprise and when Big Fun showed up, dressed to the nines (in the extreme heat too), and started playing our groom-to-be was flabbergasted.

I highly recommend booking Big Fun for any of your events. People were lined up all long the streets of Bourbon and Royal dancing, taking photos, and joining in the fun.

Thanks so much guys!

Thought the band was great, did a great job. The only issue was that the parade only lasted 30 mins when we had paid the band, police escorts, etc. for an hr. I know this is probably not the bands fault, but it was pretty dissapointing that we really didn't get out money's worth. I asked one of the band members if they could continue playing and I believe they weren't allowed to because the cop escorts had left. Not sure what the deal is or where the blame should be pointed, but I think that should be more clear in the future.

Best,
Jeremy

Big Fun Brass Band played a show for us at a party we hosted for about 40 friends. Their energy was amazing and people were dancing for their entire 3 hour show. The band was professional, courteous, and showed up on time. They played amazing music and took requests from the crowd. If you are looking for a band that will keep your guests dancing, look no further.

Big Fun Brass Band exceeded our expectations and really made our special day memorable! My husband and I are from California and when we decided we wanted to get married in our favorite city, New Orleans, I knew it wouldn't be complete without a Second Line. Other than coming highly recommended online on various sites, one thing that drew me to Big Fun was that unlike other bands I looked into, they were willing to be flexible with the number of band members in order to fit our budget. Corey was extremely helpful and patient with my neurotic bride brain when it came to planning the event. The day of the event, the band was punctual and energetic and really got all our guests (and strangers on the street for that matter) into the spirit of things. I'm so glad I chose them to be part of our special day! Our guests all agreed it was one of the best parts of the wedding.

The Big Fun Brass Band was really exceptional. They are incredibly talented musically -- just check out one of their YouTube videos (or our blog post here http://blog.contactually.com/2014/11/finally-a-contactually-brass-band/) for proof. I highly recommend them for any event that you might have.
