Beach Nights - Live Band & DJ Combo 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $8,500
  • Serves Fort Walton Beach, FL

You’ve seen wedding bands before. But you’ve never seen one like us. Our wedding nights are, in a word, unforgettable. We specialize in epic dance hits, teary-eyed singalongs, and everything in between. Book us for your event and you'll get our award-winning Boston Wedding Band & DJ combo, PLUS our professional sound and stage lighting system at one simple rate, with absolutely NO overtime charges. We travel all over New England and beyond, so when you’re ready for our industry-leading talent and a game-changing event package all at one affordable wedding band price, we’re ready to celebrate with you.

We are still on a high from the most fun night of our lives all thanks to BeachNights band, Chris and DJ Connor!!! If you want to have music at your wedding that everyone will be talking about for years to come, book BeachNights for your reception and the DJ combo for your other music needs (ceremony, cocktail hour, afterparty). Booking BeachNights for all our music needs was the best decision we made for our wedding day. BeachNights far exceeded our expectations. Chris is so professional, organized, and easy to work with. They have so much experience in all types of venues; you will be glad you have a band who knows exactly what they need to do to put on a seamless performance. They keep the music process worry-free so you can focus on other aspects of wedding planning. A piece of unsolicited advice if I may, book BeachNights for everything: ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, afterparty. It was so much easier being able to talk to ONE person and coordinate all music through ONE group rather than having 4 music vendors involved in the planning process. They take time to learn about you as a couple, your music wants and needs, likes and dislikes so that every single song is exactly what you want and how you pictured your music on your wedding day. THANK YOU Chris and team for making our wedding dreams come true!

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

Visit our website for upcoming showcase dates where you can see the band perform LIVE before booking. You can also tailor the dream band to suit your style and budget. We also offer Photo & Video services!

Between the professionalism, the communication, down to the loving and outrageously fun atmosphere this band will create for your wedding day, what I came to rave about was their ability to turn a bad situation into a memorable one. So many “audibles” had to be called during my reception as there were coordination mishaps and the timing for just about everything went off the rails beginning with dinner. Not only did Bay Kings Band keep the atmosphere light (to where my guests noticed NOTHING), our MC essentially coached me through the remaining timeline of my reception and turned what felt like a bad trip into the most incredible party I’ve ever been to (humble brag) which just so happened to be my own wedding. THANK YOU BAY KINGS BAND ️ if I could give you a million stars I would!!!

Adm Talent

  • Band/dj
  • Starts at $7,500
  • Serves Fort Walton Beach, FL

Adm Talent is a wedding music business based in Woodmere, New York. Over the years we have gained invaluable experience performing at hundreds of weddings and have grown a very large network of fantastic talent. We currently offer 3 bands that cover a wide range of hits and are guaranteed to rock your your wedding!

ADM Talent was a recommendation to me from another bride, so that already spoke volumes about their talent. Our band was Treasure, an extremely talented group and their performance for our wedding was better than I could have imagined! They have a giant list of songs that they can play and played the type of music we wanted (including alt rock) with ease. To make things even better, our singers came down to mingle and engage with us and our guests while they performed, which was very fun! Our guests loved them and several people came up to us saying this was the best band they’ve seen and that it felt like a concert. We even have had guests reach out to get ADM’s information on behalf of their friends. Finally, I want to especially thank Alex for being so professional and responsive throughout the planning process. It was great to not have to worry about the band at all as we planned the rest of our wedding.
