THIS BAND IS AMAZING!!! My husband and I are both musicians, so when it came to choosing a band for our wedding, we were very particular. Charisma not only met our expectations, but exceeded them beyond belief! Our guests were absolutely floored by their energy and talent. Their song choices were ideal, they were perfectly rehearsed, beyond professional, and tons and tons of fun. I could not imagine any wedding band being better than Charisma was. They made our wedding a HUGE success - all of our guests were dancing all night long, and even begged for an encore when they were done! We recommend them a million times over! CHARISMA ROCKS!!!

Could not be happier! Charisma went above and beyond to make our special day truly amazing. Our guests did not leave the dance floor all night and everyone commented on how fantastic the band was. Charisma was a true pleasure to work with and without a doubt the best band I have ever seen! We could not be happier. A true gem in the industry!

I couldn't have imagined out band selection going any better! From the nice background music during Cocktail Hour to the heavy dancefloor sets, they were fantastic in getting people in the swing of dancing for the night! It's been 2 months since the wedding and we still hear so many compliments from our guests of how great the band was! We asked they learn two songs and they delivered without a hitch! Such a fun group to listen and dance too! Best part is, we get to hear them again in 2 months when we go to our friend's wedding!! We contacted them 13 months before our wedding and they already had 3 inquiries for booking on our date, the good ones book up fast!!!

What a wonderful group of musicians and a delightful experience in every way. The music was exactly what we were hoping for....very talented musicians and vocalists....everyone danced all evening long and raved about the band. Now, a month after the wedding I am still getting compliments on the band...from all age groups--college through us old folks. Charisma was extremely professional and responsive to our needs and requests, they set a lovely tone for our event....definitely high quality and elegant yet rousting in their ability to get the crowd moving. We are so very happy we chose Charisma... I would give them the highest of recommendations!

We absolutely LOVED Charisma. They "get it." They were extremely accomodating and learned our wedding song beautifully. In fact we even remarked on how great a cover they were doing during the song! Mitch and Marie also guided us through the process seamlessly and we always felt extremely confident. Musically they were terrific and had three generations up and dancing at our wedding. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone!

Charisma was awesome at our wedding. We never heard them live until the day of our wedding since we were planning from overseas. We were a bit worried because we never met them, but they exceeded all expectations. Marie & Mitch were excellent at corresponding with us via email, always answering any questions and concerns we had. We usually got responses back within a day or two and never more than a week. It was a lifesaver for a bride who was the wedding planner and they really put us at ease through the entire process. They were reliable, professional and very flexible. We would recommend Charisma to anyone who wants a good quality professional wedding band!

We received so many compliments on our entertainment during our wedding (from people of all ages) that it made our experience just that much better. We needed to borrow some equipment during our ceremony and they hooked us up no problem. STRONGLY RECOMMEND!

My wife and I are very pleased that we selected Charisma for our wedding day! A six peice band that played a wide variety of all music. They played a multiple of instruments. Charisma was very accomodating in all of our requests. Song selections, special events at the wedding were all taken care of. This was the last of many bands we checked out. No comparrison in talent and price to all the other bands we saw. Highly recommend.

Charisma was absoultely perfect at our wedding! We are both music lovers and wanted more of a rock band than traditional, often corny, "wedding band" but also needed a mix of songs for the older folks in the crowd. We were nervous choosing from gigmasters but Charisma was a 100% perfect fit! The songs they learned for us sounded amazing and our guests can't stop talking about the "best wedding band" they've heard! We would not change a thing and whole-heartedly recommend Charisma! They can play everything from Sinatra to Sister Christian to Bon Jovi and everything in between and had both our grandparents and our rowdy college friends on their feet all night!

CHARISMA was incredible at our wedding! They learned all three of our spotlight songs and performed them like they knew the songs for years. They kept our guests dancing the night away. Our guests didn't even sit when the food came out! The only time the floor was bare was when CHARISMA took their breaks! We HIGHLY recommend CHARISMA for any event.

We hired Charisma to play for our ceremony, cocktail hour & reception. They were GREAT! We highly recommend them - great sound & amazing vocal talent -truly versatile. We wanted our reception to be a really fun party -- great music and our guests up dancing the whole time. Charisma delivered! Everyone had a blast, including us! Also, they're nice to work with and made the whole process easy for us. They listened & were eager to accomodate our requests - set up early, worked with our singer friends, learned special songs, planned sets around our musical tastes, and more. We're very thankful to Charisma for helping make our wedding day everything we'd hoped for!

We hired Charisma to perform at our country club event attended by 200+ guests. All of the members of the band were extremely accomodating and very talented. The wide variety of music was enjoyed by all. Our event would not have been successful without this band.

Charisma was very professional. Once we made the arrangements, they took care of everything, and everything went off without a hitch, and without giving us anything to worry about on our wedding day. All we had to do was show up, dance, and listen to the compliments on the band.

Myself a musician and my wife a big music fan, we knew that the band would truly make or break our reception. After seeing Charisma, we had no doubt that they would make our event memorable. And boy did they ever! Not only did they have the entire 150+ person wedding dancing (even those that claim to NEVER dance at weddings), they also learned our wedding song perfectly and were professionals from start to finish. With so many decisions to be made when planning a wedding, do yourself a favor and make this one right now. I guarantee you will not find a better band for your wedding than Charisma!

Wow... absolutely awesome. Everyone has been going on about the band since the wedding. They were everything we could have asked for and more. They even learned an obscure "Jets to Brazil" song for our first dance and knocked it out of the park. I would absolutely recommend Charisma for any event.

Charisma was a great band and made the party one of the best we have had on the farm. Everybody loved the band and was up dancing and singing along to the music. They were great and I would recommend them to anybody who is looking for a band to play their next party. Thanks again Mitch!!

Charisma rocked out at our wedding! We hosted a broad range of tastes & everyone was out there on the dance floor at one point or another. It was truly a fabulous night of entertainment. Prior to our wedding, we had a respectful, open communication with Charisma that consisted of many conversations via email &phone. The band leader Marie was most professional, personable & understanding to all our needs. We are so glad to have chosen Charisma to play for us. They learned two new songs for us-- and played them both very well! (One was even our first dance.) We are looking forward to receiving the videos to enjoy the "show" a few more times.

Charisma was fantastic ... beyond fantastic! Mitch & Marie are great to work with - they stayed in communication throughout the wedding planning, always got back to us quickly, and tried to accommodate all requests. The band members in Charisma are also super talented ... everyone from young to older danced all night and didn't want the band to stop! Everyone talked about how great they were. We can't thank them enough for making our wedding so special and fun! -Ellen and Greg

We could not have asked for a better band. My husband is a musician so he's extremely discerning when it comes to music and he was blown away!
Would you believe that there was even an encore after five hours of music!! Thank you Charisma for making our day so special!!!

Charisma was an amazing band!! Band members were professional and organized and were easy to contact if I had any questions or recommendations. They are fun and upbeat and perfect for a wedding. You will be up on your feet dancing the entire night. Everyone at my sister's wedding was commenting on how awesome the band was and was interested in getting their information for later events. I would recommend Charisma to anyone that wants a great band that is experienced and knows how to please the crowd!!!

Charisma learned our first dance, "All I Want is You" by U2, in 2 months and it sounded so great - I couldn't be happier with it. They were very accommodating, communicated well, and helped my husband with the audio portion of his photograph slide presentation. Everyone was dancing and having a great time, and I received so many comments from the guests on what a great job the band did. They truly added a special touch to our wedding.

We were completely impressed with Charisma. They were by far the best wedding band we have ever heard. The guests kept complimenting the band and their music selection all night. It was such a pleasure working with the band as they are organized, flexible and easy to work with. We could not be happier with Charisma. I will absolutely be recommending Charisma to anyone planning an event!
