I cannot even begin to tell you how terrific The Royal Suits performance was at our Old Edwards Inn wedding. They absolutely “ROCKED” the house. The dance floor was jammed all night! I would highly recommend them to anyone or group. Rich is a really cool guy and leads a very talented group/band What an outstanding evening….

Everything was fantastic. The Royal Suits were everything we wanted and much more! We got so many comments and compliments about the band. They were exactly what I was hoping for on my wedding day!

Everything went really well. The band was excellent. Rich was very easy to work with and they did a nice job covering a new song for the first dance.

This band was truly the best I’ve ever worked with as a wedding planner. Their talent and professionalism were top-notch, but what really stood out was how organized they were. The communication with Rich throughout the planning was superb, and Matt, who handled the ceremony, was excellent! They arrived early, set up smoothly, and coordinated perfectly with the event schedule. They were SUPER organized, detailed, and kind. Their ability to read the crowd and keep the energy high was remarkable, and they had everyone dancing all night long. They all had a great time on stage, and you can tell they truly love performing.

There are truly no words. Saturday was the most magical day of my life. I had a vision and they took it and created a musical fairytale wonderland for the ceremony and the most fun and excitingly epic party for the reception. Every note was outstanding. I know playing in that cold is impossible, but they elevated above. For the rest of my life, I will never feel the way that walk down the aisle made me feel with their incredible musical sound playing in the background. I felt the most love and joy from those with me and those who have gone. They allowed me to express my love to everyone there and especially my love for Tom and our family members. Truly, they have an unbelievable gift, and I am forever grateful to them. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Royal Suits and Royal Strings very much for making mine and Tom’s day simply magical!!!!!!

The Royal Suits were incredible. As the bride, they were a highlight of my wedding day. We’ve been to tons of weddings and they were the best!! My reception was a blast and everyone stayed on the dance floor all night. I could write a novel about how amazing they were! Highly recommend!

I wanted to reach out to you to share my thoughts on the wedding I coordinate last Saturday at Pinehurst Resort as a wedding planner. It was an incredible evening, and I felt compelled to express my appreciation for a couple of standout aspects of the event. First and foremost, I have to tell you about the live band, ""The Royal Suits."" They were nothing short of amazing. Their performance was a true highlight of the evening, and I found myself completely blown away by their talent and energy. The atmosphere they created with their music was unforgettable. I don't usually write reviews or share my thoughts, but I couldn't let this exceptional experience go unnoticed. Additionally, I want to commend the professionalism and efficiency of the event organization, especially Rich. He made the entire process seem effortless, and everything ran seamlessly. His attention to detail and his ability to ensure a smooth and enjoyable evening for everyone was truly impressive. I believe that the success of an event like this often depends on the small but significant details, and Pinehurst Resort, along with ""The Royal Suits"", exceeded all expectations. It was a remarkable experience, and I wanted to make sure you were aware of it. Once again, thank you for your work. It was a night to remember."

Royal Suites was absolutely incredible. It was seamless and professional working with ECE and Royal Suites could not have been more perfect. All band members were super personable and kind. More importantly Royal Suites was the most fun and talented band I have ever seen at a wedding. Their talent was off the charts and the music was incredible. Every single person at our wedding is talking about the band. They played all the music we wanted and the crowd absolutely loved them. High energy and music was soooooo good. Best night ever. Highly recommend. They learned our first dance ‘all Your’n’ and executed it flawlessly. Amazing experience from start to finish.

- Forrest Staton

(Oct 07, 2023)

The Royal Suits and the royal strings were FANTASTIC. They were so great to work with! I had many people say it was the best band they have ever heard at a wedding. It was such an honor to have them! I will definitely recommend them if anyone needs a band!!

- Olivia G.

(Sep 30, 2023)

Thanks so much for reaching out, the Royal Suits were amazing as you predicted. They certainly exceeded expectations and even learned a Phish song for our first dance. We can’t imagine our wedding without having them there, they brought so much fun energy, and the crowd was loving it all night long. Thank you so much for helping to make it all happen. We will certainly share your info and recommend the Royal Suits to anybody that asks and will leave a rating later this week.

- Tim & ViKtoriya

The Royal Suits were awesome! Everything about booking, weekend planning/prep, and execution was really excellent. We had a blast at the wedding, and our guests loved the band.Thank you and the band for working with us for our wedding!

(Jun 17, 2023)

We had the most spectacular experience with Royal Suits. They exceeded expectations and put on an amazing show. Everyone had an absolute blast, and left sweating and smiling ear to ear. They truly created an unforgettable experience. I will definitely be leaving a review so others can take advantage of their talent as well. Thank you for everything! Couldn’t have asked for a better band.

- Sarah & Thomas

(Jun 03, 2023)

I have always enjoyed and recommend every band I have worked with from East Coast Entertainment. But Royal Suits has to be my new favorite. Not only was Rich so very accommodating in the planning. They blew us away with song, after song that kept everyone dancing & singing along of all ages.

- Mary Beth M.

(Apr 29, 2023)

I just want to tell yall how amazing yall are! We have photographed hundreds of weddings, and yall are our favorite band!!! Yall killed it at Allison + Williams wedding. Yall are just so fun and a joy to watch entertain. I didn't want to leave the room just for fear of missing what yall did next! I can't wait to share their gallery of images with you. Thank you for being so fun to work with!

For the second time now we had The Royal Suits entertain at our Christmas party. The second time because the first time was amazing and the second time was the same. The energy, quality of the musicians combined with their eagerness to please made for a great evening of fun and dance!

(Dec 09, 2022)

The Royal Suits were everything you said they would be and more. We loved them, the guests loved them, and we so appreciate the time they took to get to know us and our wedding style. They delivered energy, some great memories and a fantastic party. We have a video that one of our guests captured of "Callin' Baton Rouge" (last song) and we have watched it no less than 200 times.

- Alyssa Dack

(Oct 15, 2022)

Royal Suits was absolutely fabulous - we had people coming up to us all night telling us that they were the best wedding band they had ever heard! Other people wanted their contact info so they could book the band for their own event. From the ceremony music to the reception, they were on point with everything. Our biggest request from the band was that they had the dance floor packed all night, and they definitely delivered. Could not recommend them more!!

- Alex Curtiss

(Oct 01, 2022)

You were 100% right when you said people would leave saying it was the best wedding band they’ve ever heard. Thank you for seeing our vision and recommending the PERFECT fit for our night. People will not stop talking about how freaking awesome they were! Also the shoutout to my Mom before they played her song request, the Phish song for andrew and Rihanna for me! Ahh I could go on. Thank you doesn’t even begin to cover it.

- Haley (bride)

(Sep 10, 2022)

The Royal Suits were absolutely phenomenal!!! The entire party was raving about them all night and even now, 2 weeks after the wedding! They learned our special request songs with flying colors, made our hora the best time ever, and had everyone on the dance floor the entire time they were performing. The way they ended the night, with us (the bride and groom) singing "Don't Stop Believing" and then "Take Me Home, Country Roads" as the encore was incredibly memorable and special for both the couple and all of the guests. It was the absolute best way to end the special night we could have dreamed of, and we are absolutely thrilled with the band's performance. The Royal Suits were a dream come true in every way-- everyone was asking if they travel to New York, Florida, etc. as they consider their own events in the future. We had multiple guests say you were the best wedding band they ever heard, and we agree. Can't thank you all enough, you really made our wedding spectacular!!

- Craig H.

(Jul 03, 2022)

These guys are amazing! They were such a big hit! Everyone we ran into on the street the day after talked about the music. They felt like it was the best "wedding/concert" ever! I didn't get to hear the cocktail hour music, but people did say it too was lovely. They were so accommodating...we had one request to play Tiger Rag and they made it work. I would highly recommend this group to anyone!

- James C.

(Jul 01, 2022)

My wife and I couldn't have been more glad to have chosen The Royal Suits for our wedding. The band exceeded our expectations in every way. We were introduced to the band leader, Rich Brownstein, early in the process, and Rich was super professional, courteous, and responsive (which was not a surprise since he previously ran music venues in NYC). When it comes to the performance, my only regret was not having them involved in more parts of the wedding than just the reception. The band is incredibly musical, diverse, energetic, significantly more edgy/fun than a classic wedding band, and you can tell that the band members genuinely enjoy each others' company. They were able to read the room in real time and play hits that kept our guests on the dance floor the entire time. They ended their set with an incredible 90’s hip-hop medley that simply can't be replicated. We've received so many compliments about the band and we could not have been more thankful that we chose The Royal Suits.

(Jun 18, 2022)

It was absolutely amazing! They exceeded our expectations and guests were complimentary of them all night. Thank you so much!

We had The Royal Suits out of Asheville play at our wedding. String duo during the ceremony and live band during the reception. 10/10 would recommend!!!

- Holland F.

(May 29, 2022)

Could not have had the best wedding ever without The Royal Suits. Our guests were absolutely blown away by the talent this band brought!! They are absolutely amazing, kind, fun and very effective at emcee-ing the crowd. Rich was also very pleasant to work with in setting it all up beforehand. Our guests told us multiple times "this is the best wedding band ever.

- Cassia H.

(May 07, 2022)

1,000,000 percent recommend the Royal Suits!!! They were incredible and great to work with on all arrangements. Off the chain sound and range of genres they could play. Started off with slower stuff and brought the house down by the end (We asked for an hour of conversation music and then to start cranking it up...and boy did they!!!!). Do not hesitate on these folks, and they are a great value too

- Brad C.

(Dec 11, 2021)

The band was off the charts great! They worked with our schedule and changed up their routine to accommodate us. Their ENERGY and showmanship were fantastic. Song selection was perfect for our group. We will be in touch to schedule them again next year.

Words can’t come close to accurately describe how thrilled we were with The Royal Suits. Saturday’s reception was a dream! We loved every single member of the band and are so very impressed with their immense talent. I was asked too many times to count who they were, where they were from, and how to book them. Thank you to each and every one of them and to you for all of your hard work and patience throughout this process.

We had an amazing time with Royal Suits! They were an absolute pleasure the entire day/evening! Chelsea and Eric definitely seemed to enjoy themselves on the dance floor with their guests!! I will absolutely be recommending them to our future clients!

The Royal Suits band is incredible all around!! We had the band for our ceremony (2-piece string), cocktail hour (piano) and a reception (6-piece), their talent and passion to entertain is outstanding. We were blown away by their energy which was enough to have the entire wedding dancing!! Song selection, rotation and performance was absolutely on point through the entire set list. They even planned an encore which we gladly asked for!! ECE did a great job from start to finish and was very easy and professional to work with

- Sarah M.

(Oct 29, 2021)

Rich- I just wanted to let you know just how much we enjoyed having you and the rest of The Royal Suits as part of our wedding! Truly incredible and one of our fondest memories of our wedding day. We have mentioned The Royal Suits in ALL of our reviews for EastCoast Entertainment. SO grateful for everything you did to make our day special!

- Bethany Boucher

(Oct 24, 2021)

The Royal Suits were unbelievable - most of the guests were on the dance floor the entire night (even with three sets!), a groomsman split his pants from dancing, and many people said it was the best wedding band they had ever seen. It almost felt like a concert (especially when they did an encore for us!). They did such a beautiful job with the songs they learned for the ceremony and first dance as well. We couldn't be happier.

- Sarah L.

(Oct 22, 2021)

Ok wow. Wow wow wow. Our feet are dying, there was more than one pair of pants torn, and I crowd surfed in a wedding gown. They were absolutely awesome! We will definitely be leaving some 10 star reviews! Thank you for your assistance in the process! We truly had the most amazing night and every guest was on the dance floor the entire time!

I do not have words for how amazing The Royal Suits were at our wedding last Friday at Homewood. I keep trying to think of ways to describe how wonderful you were but truly words just don’t do your work justice. My husband and I have been together for 12 years and during our time together have been to many, many weddings. We are also avid concert goers and cherish live music. We have never in our lives had as amazing an experience dancing as we did to your performance at our wedding! You hit every single note and brought the most fun, upbeat energy of all time. Every one of our guests felt comfortable to completely lose themselves in the music and dance with wild (and I mean wild) abandon. I have never seen a group of people leave it all on the dance floor like that- it honestly felt other worldly at times. It had been so long since I had felt collective joy like that and looked around and seen others in such an utterly blissful state! And it was ALL because of you and the love, passion, talent and energy you put into your music and events. Jake and I have lost count at how many people came up to us and told us that y’all were not only the best wedding band but the best live music they have ever experienced. I keep sending people y’all’s information because people want to book y’all for their next event! We are now your biggest fans and will recommend you to any and everyone we know. As you know, losing my mom this year and getting married without her was indescribably difficult. I didn’t know if I would be able to go through with it without her by our side. She absolutely loved your work from your promo videos and knew how to spot talented musicians when she saw them. She was the one who originally found you all on a google search so I feel like us working with The Royal Suits was truly meant to be. My mom would have been so proud and grateful for how special you made our big day. And you really did make it- it would not have been the same without you all! Thank you for everything. We love you guys!

Thanks for following up! I truly don’t think there are words to describe how incredible The Royal Suits were. Every single person at the wedding commented on how great they were and the best wedding band they’ve ever seen. From the first dance live to them agreeing to play one more song end the night with Shout they were nothing short of incredible. I truly mean it when I say our wedding would not have been the same without them and they made our wedding unforgettable. I will most certainly be passing on our information I already had people who asked who we used. We cannot say thank you enough to you or Rich and the rest of the band - they are truly incredible!!

The Royal Suits were so great to work with! From communication before and during event, to the music--everything was perfect! As we adjusted the timeline a little, they were always ready to go or able to wait. Many of the guests complimented the music as well. We will definitely recommend in the future!

- Lucy & Will

(Jul 17, 2021)

The Royal Suits were incredible! The number one thing everyone says to us when we talk about the wedding is “OH MY GOD AND THAT BAND!!!!” Like we don’t even know where to begin with praise. Beyond our wildest dreams. Some friends got their contact info for their events. Seriously the most talented musicians, kindest people, and so so fun and engaging. Thank you SOOOO much!!!!

Incredible band! Everyone danced nonstop through our reception. They were professional to deal with and Rich the bandleader was great. They play every great song you want at a wedding reception. They are so full of energy. All of our guests enjoyed them so much and said they were awesome. Will recommend them to others every chance I get.

From the time the band arrived they were very upbeat and positive and very cooperative. They greeted me and introduced themselves and let me know that they were willing and ready to work as professionals during set up, performance and tear down. I would highly recommend them to anyone. Their set up was really nicely done and I let them know that and how much we appreciated working with them. They were very high energy and the wedding guests danced the entire night from beginning to end! Honestly, they are one of the best bands in every respect that I have dealt with over my career. We would love to have them back again anytime in the future.

This band was absolutely amazing. We cannot begin to thank them enough for the superb job they were able to do. I can without a doubt say they made the reception a night to remember the minute they started playing. Everyone was up and dancing ALL NIGHT LONG having an amazing time and the band kept everybody engaged throughout the night. They were so easy to work with, with the things they needed throughout the night and knew every song we wanted them to play. At the end of the night they had us up on stage with them for a special moment with everyone which added such a great touch and a moment to remember! They made the night truly special and personal for us and our family and friends! We cannot thank and recommend The Royal Suits enough for any event you would have.

(Jun 28, 2019)

We were thrilled with the band. I can’t say enough good things about them. Not only were they incredibly talented for the ceremony, the cocktail hour and the reception, they were great fun. They were the perfect combination of engaging and professional. They were also very gracious sharing the dressing room with the wedding party. It was a perfect night and the band had an enormous hand in that.

Fantastic Show, I can't tell you how many positive comments we received about the band...... Truly an amazing show (felt like a concert towards the end of the night). The music at the service and post service was also spot on (terrific). I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for music/band!!!!!

I spent several hours researching bands for our party. I felt the energy and talent that the Suits brought to the party by just watching videos online. They did that and so much more. The weather was not ideal, but they came ready to do what they do best. They took it to the next level and we have not stopped hearing about how great they were from our partygoers. It was their last show of the year and they completely blew it out. I would recommend The Royal Suits to anyone who wants to make their party the best it has ever been.

- Charlie G.

(Dec 08, 2018)

The Royal Suits are the PERFECT wedding band. They are all unbelievably talented musicians, and their diversity in sound allows them expertly cover a wide variety of music. We consulted with Rich, the band leader, before our wedding and he tailored their set list to exactly what we asked for. They opened the night with classic 60's and 70's songs that our older guests enjoyed, and then finished the night with a two hour party set that was not-stop fun. Every single wedding guest we spoke with loved the Royal Suits, and I know that a few of my single friends plan on hiring them when they tie the knot. You can not go wrong with this band!

- Charlie S.

(Nov 17, 2018)

THIS BAND!!!! My daughter went to great lengths to plan her special day and after consulting with Ellie at East Coast we chose THE ROYAL SUITS. they make a special event unforgettable. From staring with 60's music for the older crowd to ending with current favorites, there was never an empty space on the dance floor. We even had to usher people off the floor so my daughter could have the last dance. The positive energy, never a pause between songs, and the outstanding musical talent filled the beautiful space. Even the event coordinator and staff were amazed at the talent and professionalism of this group. I almost feel like after my feet stop hurting from dancing so much that i need to come up with another event just to book THE ROYAL SUITS. they are better than any group i have ever heard, even for New Orleans Mardi Gras balls.

- Rodney R.

(Nov 10, 2018)

The band was incredible not only coming from my husband and I, but from our entire guest list! We all loved the energy and vibe the band provided. They were not only performing, but truly having just as much fun as the rest of us. The song list was fantastic. Never a dull moment. They even incorporated a special song with my brother playing guitar along with the band. Such an amazing surprise for Phil and I!! We cannot say enough good things. Thank you for making our wedding night an absolute blast!

The Royal Suits definitely rocked the house for Catherine and John's Rehearsal Dinner. From a bit more subdued sound while we were mingling and eating to the fabulous night of EVERYONE on the dance floor. I could not ask for a better or more fun band. You guys have a great sound and you worked wonderfully with our crowd. We had folks from 20 to 90 in the room and I heard only great things about you. Damned fine job. Thanks

I just wanted to touch base with you after our wedding!! I can not even begin to tell you how much we lovvvvedddd the band!!

Our photographer took some amazing pictures of the band and was wondering if they would want to see any of them!! Thanks again for everything!

Everything about our experience with this band has surpassed our expectations. From the start, Ellie from ECE was great to work with and such help with finding the right band and the booking process. She definitely pointed us in the right direction! After we booked The Royal Suites, we had some special requests and communication was great with Rich, they were so accommodating! They learned our first dance song which sounded beautiful and from there absolutely rocked our wedding reception. They are so talented and so high energy- one of those bands you can’t help but dance to! Every guest is STILL talking about how great the band was. We have a lot of musicians in our family and they were blown away at the talent! So much variety in what they can do and they completely read our crowd to cater the music and keep people partying! You can tell they love what they and were enjoying themselves too. Our dance floor was packed the whole night. It was the ultimate party thanks to these guys. If you want everyone to have the best time at your wedding- book them!

Band was great. Everybody loved them. The band seemed to have fun and that made everybody have fun. A very talented group of artists. With dancing on top of a lighted pool, it made for a unique experience. The band was extremely accommodating and so easy to work with. If you ever need any references, from someone who has been involved in many events, please have them contact me. The band made the wedding very successful and an occasion that will long be remembered.

Do yourself a favor and STOP READING THESE REVIEWS RIGHT NOW and BOOK THIS BAND!! You will not be disappointed, I can promise you that. The Royal Suits played at our wedding reception in Asheville last month. And what else can I say? They completely blew our minds and brought down the house!! Every member of this band plays a critical role, and I swear, their collective talent is like nothing you'll ever experience. So many people came up to us after and said it was the BEST BAND they'd ever seen and that it felt like they went to a wedding...with a concert included!! Honestly, we can't thank you guys enough for putting on such an incredible show. A show that perfectly ranges from all the 'feel good' Motown classics everyone loves, to some of the best of the 90s & 2000s to Today’s Hits…and even some ghetto rap sprinkled in there for fun. The part Ian and I will never forget, however, was the EPIC ending to what was the best night of our lives. Ave, the band's powerful and dynamic female lead vocalist, brought us on stage with her to close the night out with 'Don't Stop Believing' -- a wedding closer classic. My husband and I got to feel like total rockstars for a moment, surrounded by this kickass band and all the people in the world that we love. Guys. BOOK THIS BAND!! They're the best!!!

One of the most important factors for me as it relates to the wedding was that the band kept people on the dance floor and having fun the whole time. Royal Suits absolutely could not have done a better job all the way through from the ceremony to the reception. We were already getting comments about them at dinner about how awesome they were. Numerous people commented on how great the band was and they definitely kept everyone moving all the way up until the end. They don't just play, they also interact with the audience. I couldn't be happier with how it turned out so thank you to your whole team for literally "making" our wedding. I have never seen a wedding band perform as well as the Royal Suits did.

Just wanted to reach out to you guys and let you know we totally LOVED The Royal Suits a couple weekends ago in Abingdon!!! Seriously, everyone was saying it was the best wedding reception they had ever been to because we had such a kick-ass band!! At the farewell coffee the morning after the wedding, people kept asking me where I found you guys, etc and raving about how amazing you are :) We were so worried about finding a band that would get everyone all excited and having fun (as you can probably gather we had a broad range of folks there - older southern family friends, people from Europe, our hip Chicago friends, etc :) and you guys had EVERYONE dancing the night away! It was literally the sweetest thing ever to look around and see everyone having a blast in my parents backyard! We can not thank you enough!!!! You are all incredible performers, so talented, engaging, and fun! Thanks again and we wish you all the best! Much Love,

It may have taken me over two years to write this review but my sister is getting married and I find myself listening to bands again on ECE and NOBODY can top Royal Suits. Our wedding would not have been so special without these guys and I recommend them so highly. They worked with us on our first dance songs and even worked in secret with my husband to learn a song he sang to me during our reception! I hope we are lucky enough to hear Royal Suits play again one day!

BEST BAND EVER! They made the party the party. We all felt like Cinderella when the click struck midnight. Didn’t want it to end. Thank you for making our daughters wedding the best !

We are on our honeymoon now but I just really wanted to thank you guys SO much. Robbie and I are still in awe over Saturday. I knew you guys were good based off your videos but holy moly.....you guys are PHENOMENAL!!! I actually felt like I was at a concert at my own wedding lol. People keep telling us that was the best band they’ve ever heard. I saw people out there dancing that I would have never imagined dancing!! You guys blew me away with Free/Into the Mystic, even the intro I couldn’t believe sounded just like the song!!! And what means the most to me is that my parents (if you couldn’t tell lol) had the time of their lives. It made me so incredibly happy to see them so happy dancing and out on the stage with you! It was truly a special night thanks to you all. So thank you soooo much!!!! I am so glad I chose you all as the band to play at my wedding :) You all exceeded my expectations by far. I hope one day I can see you guys again playing at another wedding!!!

Hands down the BEST band Anthony and I have ever heard! Royal Suits made the wedding ceremony and reception a huge success! Anthony just said they were the best part of the wedding (minus marrying me of course)! ;) The talent of each band member is insane and they also know how to get the crowd going! No one left the dance floor from the beginning to the end of the night. I’ve never heard so many people continue to say “The Royal Suits are the best band and how did you find them”. Anthony’s uncle had a band a few years back for his son’s wedding and they had a lot more band members and The Royal Suits were performing as if they had a bigger band and more people! Cannot thank you and The Royal Suits enough for helping us throughout the process (picking the right band, ceremony music, music selections, ability to learn and perfect our first dance). Rich told me when I was being a little bit Bridezilla that I didn’t need to worry about anything and he had this under control.. boy did he!!! #bestbandever Thank you so much!!

(May 27, 2018)

If you want your wedding (or any other event) to stand out from the rest, then book The Suits! I can honestly say I am a music snob, and this band is really talented. On top of their talent, they know how to throw a party! From the start, Ellie and Rich were attentive and listened to what we were looking for and then delivered on the night of the wedding. I must have heard “This band is incredible” 1000 times that night. No one left the dance floor because the energy just kept going. Can’t say enough great things about The Royal Suits. BOOK THEM and go worry about something else!

- Steven G

(Apr 28, 2018)

They were amazing beyond expectation. The dance floor was packed the entire night and I don’t know who had more fun, us or the band. Thank you so much for leading me to them. Not sure if you heard, but Rich surprised me with a Tweezer Reprise to close the thing down. (Much to the excitement of many of my phriends!) It was an awesome night!

- Connie & Steven

(Apr 28, 2018)

Hands down! Royal Suits was the best band I have ever heard at a wedding. Everyone loved them. Song selections were right on!! Would not have changed anything. We will definitely remember them for future referrals.

The Royal Suits were AMAZING!!! They fed off our energy and we fed off theirs!!!! It was a great night, just wish it lasted longer!!!!! I would highly recommend them!!

Ellie, BIG thanks to you and The Royal Suits for making Meredith's wedding so perfect and such fun. You were a joy to work with and the band is amazing. EVERYONE could not say enough about how talented they are. Special thanks for the extra effort it took to get there in the unexpected snow blanket! I feel sorry for those guests who were unable to get through to enjoy the evening. I sincerely hope there was enough energy for the promotional video to be as phenomenal as the band deserves it to be.

After just getting back from our honeymoon, we're still reeling from how outstanding the Royal Suits were. A few points: 1) Many friends/family members of ours are musicians, and a few play in wedding bands. They all individually came up to us and told us the Royal Suits were the best wedding band they had EVER heard or seen. As you can see from other comments, you'll be getting compliments on your wedding music for a long time! 2) My friend has her wedding date and a DJ booked for next summer. But, after seeing the Royal Suits at our wedding, she is in talks to cancel her DJ and fly them to her wedding in another state! That's how fun and captivating they are. 3) Rich was the chillest/easier person to work with. I always felt heard and communicated with! I still have the chills from our wedding day -- it was the best day of our lives, in huge part thanks to this incredible group of talented musicians. If you are reading this, just book them. Then, relax and get ready to have literally the best wedding ever. I could rave on for days... Thank you Royal Suits! We're forever fans!

(Nov 18, 2017)

Everything was amazing with Royal Suits! Tons and tons of people have reached out to tell us that they were the best wedding band, or really cover band, they had ever heard. Our guests were constantly on the dance floor and some even crowded around the dance floor just to enjoy the show. From our guests: "The dance floor was always packed. I've never seen anything like that. EVER." "Even Grandma was out there dancing! And looking like she was having a good time" "Best. Band. EVER" "From old Motown to Boots with the Fur, every song they played was perfect and amazing. They were able to read the room so well!"

- Meredith H.

(Oct 28, 2017)

Royal Suits were so fantastic. I loved them from the moment I saw their video and am so glad I pushed back to my dad over and over about hiring a DJ. During the night he said he was so happy with the choice and that it made the evening. We are so grateful for allowing Jeff to sing it was such a special moment. Our timeline went arwy every single step of the way and almost every vendor had complications Sunday but the band was ready to go, professional, and even shortened our first dance song mid so when we realized how long and awkward it feels to be just dancing alone! Haha I looked over and was like "shorten this please!" The dancing was the best part of the night by far. I can't say enough good things about the night and I will certainly refer them (as close to home as possible ;) )

- Samantha G.

(Sep 10, 2017)

The Royal Suits are AMAZING! Truly the best band out there. We got so many compliments from our friends and family! Thanks again!

We can't thank you and the Royal Suits enough for the part you played in our wedding! You guys were truly AMAZING!!! We had high expectations based on your demos/etc., but y'all absolutely surpassed everything we expected and hoped for! Andrew and I loved dancing the night away with you guys, and we've heard nothing but glowing comments from our guests as well. Our wedding party agreed y'all were the best wedding band they'd seen (and they've been to a lot of weddings!). Thank you for helping to make our wedding reception so much fun and the best day of our lives!

- Samantha & Andrew

(Aug 19, 2017)

The Royal Suits were absolutely INCREDIBLE. They truly made our night. Also, would it be possible to get their playlist for that night? Everything flew by so quickly and we would love to make a playlist of everything they played so we can relive it just a little. Thanks so much

(Jul 29, 2017)

As a wedding planner I would highly recommend the Royal Suits as a super-talented professional bunch to work with and enjoy for any event!!! Not only were they accomodating and clear about what they needed for the event, they were also a breeze to communicate with and simply a fun group of folks! Every guest in attendance was dancing their hearts out and the bride and groom were simply thrilled with their performance at their wedding!! Amazing amazing!! Thank you Rich, Matt, Adriana, Roddy, Ryan, and Jon!!!

(Jun 17, 2017)

Aside from an open bar, I think the most important aspect of guests enjoying a wedding is the band you select. With this context in mind, the Royal Suits absolutely crushed our wedding - in a good way. From their ability to play a string ceremony and acoustic cocktail hour, to learning our special songs, to creating a dance floor that was not nearly large enough for 3 straight hours, the Royal Suits were worth every single penny. I knew going in that they were all excellent musicians, but I had no idea about their incredible stage presence or engaging abilities to interact with our guests. During our farewell brunch the next Sunday, the overwhelming topic of discussion was "where did you guys find that band?!?!?!?!?" Of all the decisions we made in planning our wedding, picking the Royals Suits was our best one.

- Phil R.

(Jun 17, 2017)

We would just like to quickly get back to you and say that the Royal Suits were absolutely spectacular. They exceeded our expectations and beyond. We had practically the entire 170 person wedding out on the dance floor all the way to the end. They worked the crowd perfectly, played a great variety of music, did not seem to take too much break time etc. they were perfect! We are extremely satisfied with ECE and the Royal Suits!

- Kyle & Adreanna

(Jun 10, 2017)

They were fantastic. Above and beyond expectations and rave reviews from everyone from the team at the venue to our guests. Thank you so much for working with us and making our day that much more special. Cheers!

(May 28, 2017)

We had an absolute blast at our wedding reception. The Royal Suits definitely exceeded our expectations (but I also had a feeling they were going to be incredible!!). Our guests were raving about the band all night! In addition, they were super easy to work with! My husband and I hope that we have the opportunity to hear them at an event in which we are attendants some time in the future! Thanks so much!

- Megan

(May 27, 2017)

The Royal Suits are the absolute BEST band! They are so incredibly talented. They played the strings for our ceremony and cocktails. Then had a great acoustic dinner set and then the dancing music was just amazing. They played everything from Hits, to Motown, to Country, to Hip Hop. We had everyone on the dance floor begging for encores. It was unbelievable and they took our wedding to another level. We wished we could have recorded everything. We have friends wanting to fly them around the country for events. I could not recommend them enough and cannot wait to see them again! They are also so nice and easy to work with. Thank you The Royal Suits for making our wedding perfect!

- Katie W.

(May 20, 2017)

We LOVE the Royal Suits!!! My husband and I had a chance to check them out before our wedding and we knew they would be the perfect fit for us! Their playlist is so diverse and appeals to all age groups. People were on the dance floor the entire night which was VERY important to me! I couldn't leave the floor myself...every song they played was too good to miss! We had multiple guests tell us how awesome the band was, and they were definitely one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Rich (the band leader) was very helpful and happy to answer any questions we had. The band kept the party rocking right until the very end of the night (11pm!) and they never lost their energy! We would highly recommend them for your next occasion...you won't be disappointed!!!

- Meredith P.

(May 13, 2017)

The Royal Suits played at our wedding in Asheville this May and absolutely killed it! All of our friends and family were blown away by these talented musicians and their ability to not only play great music, but really entertain an audience and keep the level of energy high throughout the entire evening. They were also incredibly responsive and easy to work with in answering questions leading up to the event. The group was even flexible in incorporating an on-stage Birthday surprise for one of our bridesmaids and worked with us on the best event timeline to maximize their playlists. Did I mention their 90's remix? Enough said. Seriously, go ahead and book them now. I promise, you won't be disappointed!

(May 05, 2017)

Best. Band. Ever. From the moment they sang their first song, until the end of the night where the Bride and Groom got pulled on stage, Royal Suits rocked the house! The guests were dancing and singing all night long. There were people on the dance floor that I didn't even know could boogie down! The amount of talent that is in the band is so impressive. The Royal Suits carried themselves with such professionalism. They are true entertainers. Please do yourselves and your guests a favor, and book The Royal Suits. They are still all our guests are talking about! We were truly blown away by all the epic music coming from the stage.

- Naomi H

(Mar 18, 2017)

They brought the house down. They were fabulous. If they had asked me for 10,000 bucks after the wedding I probably would have handed it over. My friends said it was the most fun wedding they had ever been to, and we are in our 30s, so we have been to a lot of weddings. Thank you for everything. I had my dream wedding. Please pass my compliments to the Suits.

- Ashley O.

(Jan 21, 2017)

If you're looking for an easy going, eclectic, diverse, fun, energetic, and super talented group that's easy to work with and give you and your guests just what they need to keep the night going, you're at the right place. I found them here on East Coast Entertainment website and really even just from the listing could not find anyone else that could compare. Our guests had nothing but great things to say, and everyone asked where the hell we found such an awesome band. From coordinating the ceremony playlist to playing our specific first dance, and making sure the flow of the whole night was just right, the royal suits were definitely the best hand in the house. Five stars!!

- Jed C.

(Oct 22, 2016)

I can't say enough good things about the band! Everything was very smooth and I can tell they are professionals that know how to get the job done. Ceremony and reception were both great! Most importantly, they have talent and were very entertaining.I will say something that did stick out to me- they seem to have a drive that I don't see with many other bands. I can't really put my finger on it but they were just so friendly and really seemed to have value in vendor relationships. I would highly recommend them and would love to work with them again!

- Cheryl S.

(Sep 17, 2016)

I cannot even begin to say thank you for your musical contribution to our wedding! From the ceremony to the reception everything was so beautiful and exactly what we wanted. We have received constant compliments about how great the band was and I really feel that you all assisted in making the reception so much fun. Thank you for performing our first dance song. Someone sent me a few second video of it and I have listened to it over and over again. It was absolutely perfect. Thank you for allowing my crazy family on stage (most of them were my cousins) and performing the encore song since no one wanted it to end. At one point Erick and I were dancing and we looked up and literally everyone was on the dance floor.

- Ali

(Sep 03, 2016)

Thanks for your follow up. The Royal Suits were fabulous. We loved everything about them and they were certainly a hit for the reception music. We got so many comments from our guests about how good they were – what a great performance and perfect for our dancing group! Rich and Matt were both so easy to work with and we appreciate all their information and personal interest in us.

Hey Guys! Finally relaxing on the honeymoon and wanted to send you guys a huggggge THANK YOU! It was amazing and you guys sounded perfect, John legend was on point and peeps never left the dance floor, Including myself! Thank you again for putting up with all my bizarreness.

What a night! My company prides itself on creating unique environments for our event clients. We were given the challenge of designing a wedding for an Artist and her fiancé in a new Art center in Greenville, SC. Not only did we ask the band to participate in a 'performance wedding' but we asked them to traverse two flights of stairs to carry all their equipment into the reception space due to the elevator not being installed before the wedding. The sign of a great band is a filled dance floor and people screaming for more when the band sings their last song, that was definitely the case with The Royal Suits as guests begged them for one more song! Rich, the lead band contact, could not have been nicer to work with, he was so responsive to all our wishes and requests. I have heard a ton of bands and The Royal Suits definitely is at the top of my list and i will be in touch for more gigs! Thank you for sharing your talents Royal Suits! A great band for a medium/large wedding or any event!

(Mar 19, 2016)

WOW! What can I say....The Royal Suits were a pleasant surprise! As a newer group to the wedding band scene, we had booked them for our clients wedding per their request. I knew once we started communication before the wedding even started that these guys would be amazing to work with, and they were! They were responsive, professional, on time, and ROCKED IT OUT! We also had rain issues on the wedding day and they were flexible and willing to work with us to make the day amazing for our clients no matter what. The dance floor was packed and all ages were having a blast. I would recommend them in a heartbeat!

- Ali F.

(Oct 10, 2015)

The number one question I got after the amazing wedding and reception was....where did you find that band? The Royal Suits kept the energy up all night! Rich worked with me prior to the wedding to make sure that we got it right for us and they nailed it. The band even learned a song on the fly to please some of the younger kids at the wedding. This was above and beyond what they were called to do for us. We would recommend The Royal Suits to anyone for weddings, corporate events, etc. They are professional and all very talented individuals which together will make a great show. Thanks to the band for a truly memorable night for me and my guests.

- Holly C.

(Sep 19, 2015)

The Royal Suits provided both acoustic music for the wedding ceremony and cocktail hour, and incredible music which kept the guests dancing throughout the reception. At the end of the night, the guests actually begged for an encore. This is one of the best bands I've worked with- they are professional, flexible and ridiculously talented.

- Aimee G.

(Sep 12, 2015)

I have seen a lot of bands come in and out of The Grove Park Inn. The Royal Suits are one of my favorites! They are a pleasure to work with it, very personal, very professional, organized on timelines and a true local TALENT! You can assure your family and friends will be on the dance floor on your wedding night! They take control of a wedding evening and rock out one of the biggest parties of your life. I strongly recommend them!!!

- Erin P.

(Sep 12, 2015)

The Royal Suits were awesome! The band was a real pleasure to work with prior to our wedding, going out of their way to learn new music for our ceremony. They were very professional throughout the event, and really made the reception special. Their music choices were perfect for the crowd type and energy level. All of our guests had a wonderful time and even cheered the band into playing an encore at the end of the night! We highly recommend The Royal Suits!

- Brian L.

(Sep 12, 2015)

Everything went great with the Royal Suits! They definitely exceeded our expectations. The music was definitely appropriate for the crowd at our wedding, and the band did a great job of playing the right kind of songs at the right time and responding to the crowd. Everyone seemed to have a great time, and the crowd even cheered the band into playing an encore at the end of the night! Also, our wedding planner worked with Rich on several occasions before the wedding, and had nothing but good things to say about him.We have been slacking off a little bit :), but are in the process of getting our reviews completed and will be sure to post a positive review for The Royal Suits.

- Brian L.

We are huge music fans so the band for our wedding was super important to us. Let me say, we absolutely had the best band for our wedding! The Royal Suites are so talented and super easy and fun to work with. They are so good that there were times where I had to ask my groom if it was the ipod playing or the band! They let us have control over what was played and not played which was a big deal to me. We chose them because of their diverse playlist, they can do any style of music! We had SO many people come up to us at the wedding asking how found them and that they were the best band they've ever heard at a wedding! If you are considering this band for your wedding, you will not be disappointed at all and will be lucky to have them! My family is planning to use them for other events we will have coming up in the next couple of years. I cannot rave enough about the Royal Suits and their talent!

- Audrey H.

(Aug 15, 2015)

As a wedding planner you can only hope to find an amazing wedding band and The Royal Suits far exceeded my expectations! Their constant collaboration with me before and during the wedding ensured that the big day was uniquely tailored to the Bride and Groom. Not only were they extremely professional, but they are also beyond talented! Any request we asked of them, (like playing acoustic music during cocktail hour) was met with an astounding yes. The dance floor was the hot-spot of the night! I couldn't have been happier with their services. To summarize, if you are looking for a band that will play the music you love and exceed your expectations then look no further than The Royal Suits!
