Hi Jeff,
You guys were AWESOME! Thank you so much for playing our reception and putting up with the antics of our crazy friends! (I saw some ridiculous videos the day after haha)
You all did a fantastic job and made the dance floor the life of the party. We hope to see again sometime down the road but will never forget the incredible party that you guys were a part of
Thanks,

Dear Jeff,
How fun was it doing two great wedding receptions together this Summer?!!  Both went perfectly and the weather cooperated beautifully!  I know Kristin, Nick, Margaret, Alex and their families were all so pleased!  Thank you for all you do!  Warmly,

Hi Jeff,
We all had a wonderful time at the reception, and your band had a lot to do with that.  Starting with jazz and then moving into the dance music was perfect.  You gaged the sound perfectly too, as it was just right for the space.  And finally, your music selections were great.  We just couldn’t have asked for a better music situation.
Thanks so much!  We would recommend your band to anyone for any occasion.

Hi Jeff,
John and I are driving back to Chicago right now and reminiscing on Friday night. We had a blast dancing to your music, you all sounded amazing. Our first dance was perfect- a memory we will have forever. Our family and friends couldn't stop talking about how great you all were and so accommodating with song requests. We all woke up with sore feet, which mean we definitely danced the night away! Again, thank you so much for being a part of our special day!

Wow! KOKOMO really blew the roof off our reception! The dance floor was NEVER empty and they kept the energy up all night! Jeff is super easy and great to work with...the band even learned a song for one of our special dances. Guests were chanting for more even after the reception was over!
We also used their jazz trio during dinner, which was lovely background music. When the band took breaks, it was not super evident because they played great music and kept folks dancing. I wish we could have another party with Kokomo! Also, we appreciated the band lending us one of their mics and stands for our ceremony.

Dear Jeff
Robert and I want to thank you for making the "wedding band part" of this experience so wonderful.  Thank you so much for your professionalism, expertise and attention to detail.

Hi Jeff,
What a great band you have!  We had so much fun Saturday evening!  Since Lauren and Mike first danced to the sounds of KOKOMO at the Sion Father/Daughter, Lauren has always said that's who she wanted to play at the reception when she got married.  And you did not disappoint!  Our family loves to dance and your group provided a fabulous evening of entertainment.  We heard more rave reviews the next day from a lot of tired, but happy people.  You were a pleasure to work with and your entire group was delightful!  Thank you for a great evening!!  We look forward to seeing you again!

Just thought I'd pass on the additional kudos - "We absolutely loved the band!  They could not have been any better.  All of our guests enjoyed them tremendously!"

It was a wonderful evening and many of our thank you notes talked about how great KOKOMO was.  Hope you all enjoyed the evening too.

Our family loves you and fills the dance floor because of you!

Thank you so much for helping make the night so much fun!  Everyone LOVED the band and we appreciate the fact that you guys just kept playing never taking a break and the dance party didn’t stop.  We are so glad we picked Kokomo and would be happy to recommend you to anyone else who wants to have a fun party!

We had a GREAT time and it sure looked like everyone was enjoying the dance floor.  I got so many compliments about the band so hopefully you’ll be getting a referral or two!
You all were great and made our reception a ton more fun!

Dear Jeff,
Thank you so very much for playing at our reception.  It was such a great time and the entertainment you provided was off the charts.  We have heard so many great things about the band at our wedding and owe you all for the great time had by everyone.  Thank you again.

Jeff,
Saturday was indeed a blast, and Kokomo was a huge part of a magical evening.  You guys kept the dance floor packed for three hours, and that is the best testament you could ask for.  I also don’t want to overlook the trio at dinner.  It was exactly what we wanted - excellent music at a volume that allowed comfortable conversation.  Laura and I both commented to each other during dinner that it was perfect!  Of course, my personal highlight was getting to play with you guys.  The surprise was complete, and I think it sounded good too.  I really want to thank you and the band for being so gracious allowing me to indulge my rock and roll fantasies in front of all my friends and family.  It made the evening all the more special for all of us.
If there is anything I can do in the way of endorsements, references, recommendations, etc., don’t hesitate to let me know.  I envy what you all get to do for fun.  Brings back a lot of memories from a long time ago.
Thanks again and please pass my appreciation along to Jeff, Kevin, Alex, Kirsten and Emmett.

Jeff,
Wow - what a party.
Thanks to you and your band for helping make the night special.  You really helped us rock the house.  I suspect that was one of the more fun parties ever at MHCC and you were an integral part.  As I said, if I can ever be a reference for tough customer, please give them my name.
Your renditions of all of the first dances were great.  Thank you for making that special effort.  
I wish you well and good health.  Hopefully our paths will cross again and who knows, maybe you will be playing another Thompson wedding again in the future??
All the best,
Don – Father of the Bride – at Mission Hills Country

Jeff,
Thank you for the fabulous set you played at our wedding on Saturday night. We had so much fun dancing the night away and so did or guests. Please thank the entire band for us. You guys are great!
Amy and Dustin – Bride & Groom - at Mission Hills Country Club

Hi Jeff,
I'm a bit late in getting around to my thank yous but we loved your performance at the wedding! We also got raving reviews from all of our out of town guests!
Thank you again for making our reception so personal.
Brian and Paige – Groom & Bride – at The Grand Street Café Event Space
 
Hi Jeff –
Thank you so much for making our reception such a great time! The band was awesome! We have received so many compliments from friends and family on what a great time it was. I hope you also enjoyed seeing other brides at our party that you played at for their receptions! You have quite the following and reputation for FUN!
We have some fabulous photos of the band and the crowd with the band that I’ve love to share with you. I think they’d really fit nicely with your sales presentation for potential bookings! Definitely one of the best moments of the night was when my mom joined my sister and I singing, etc! The picture is amazing!!!
Let me know the best way to share some of the photos with you. We own all of them from the photographer.
Thank you so much! We truly had the time of our lives!

Hi Jeff,
I have been meaning to email you to say thank you for everything you did for us on our wedding day!  
You and your band members were truly amazing, and your part of our wedding day could not have been more perfect!  It means the world to us that you learned the song we wanted to dance to, it was incredible!  The dance floor was packed the entire night, and people raved about how much fun they had!  
From the announcements and perfect flow of the night, to the first dances, to the crazy dance floor (including guests grabbing the cow bell and tambourine), we had a blast!
You are an incredibly gifted group, and it truly means the world to us that you were a part of our wedding day!
We wish we could do it all over again, and hope to see you perform in the future!
All the best,
Andrea and Zach – Bride & Groom – at Indian Hills Country Club
 
Jeff,
You guys were awesome!  Thank you so much!  Our friends and relatives are still talking about Kokomo and we are now amongst your biggest fans.  Cheers until next time.  Absolutely a grand slam by KOKOMO!  Take Care.

Jeff,
We had an absolute blast, and frankly, wish we could have spent more time on the dance floor. All of our friends couldn't have been any more complimentary of you and the rest of the band.
Thanks again. We'll stay in touch for our 25th wedding anniversary in 2039!
Chip – Groom – at Kansas City Country Club
 
Thank you so much, Jeff!
You guys were absolutely phenomenal - Nate and I had such a blast at our reception and have had so many people come up to us and tell us how great the band was.  Everything was perfect and we enjoyed your music so much.  We are going to keep a lookout for future events KOKOMO plays and will of course be hitting you guys up for our next party.  
Thanks again!
