Gold Coast Events-The Gold Coast All Stars/The Chicago Players/Lakeshore Encores/Rush Street Rhythm - Highland Park, Illinois

Lakeshore Encores went above and beyond to deliver the most unforgettable performance at our wedding reception! Our guests are still talking about how amazing they were - and our wedding was over a month ago! My father in law said his only complaint of the night was that the dance floor was not big enough, and he was right! It was literally packed and was not able to hold all our guests. My parents said they were waiting for a slower song and for some people to clear the floor, and that they were shocked when that did not happen. The night ended with the same number of people on the dance floor as it started with!

We had several of our guests tell us it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to or that they’ve never been to a wedding like that before. We know a HUGE reason for that was because of the show Lakeshore Encores put on. Our guests said it felt like a concert.

The band members did an amazing job of interacting with everyone throughout the set and making it fun to watch. They truly put their heart into the performance. I could go on and on with all the compliments we received on them!

Do not hesitate to book Lakeshore Encores or any of the other Gold Coast All Star Event bands for your event. They may be priced higher than your standard wedding band, but there is a good reason for that. You get what you pay for! And you will surely get the whole package with Gold Coast Events - range of vocals/music genres, impressive choreography, etc. Book them!

Amazing band! We used The Lakeshore Encores for our wedding. Angela and her band were unreal and kept our guests entertained all night long! This is one of Danny’s collection of bands. Danny Gold Coast All Stars band played at my sister’s wedding and I was concerned that this band wasn’t going to be as good because it was a “sister-band”, but I was way wrong! Angela and the Lakeshore Encore team blew my socks off and all my guests! Everyone was dancing, even people, who I didn’t think would, were dancing! I cannot speak more highly of this band and the wonderful job they day at our wedding. My three favorite parts were they learned a song so my Dad could play the drums with the band; a few members came out on the dance floor and played on the floor with the dancing crowd; and they even sat staggered in the ceremony and played during the procession which was really fun and a true surprise for the guests. Thanks to Danny for his time and patience and ensuring I would have the best experience and entertainment for my wedding.

Thank you to the Gold Coast Encores for creating the exact vibe and experience our bride and groom were looking for at their recent wedding at Adler Planetarium. The dance floor was alive and packed the entire evening. The team was a pleasure to work with and the overall experience was amazing!

We had an absolute blast with the Chicago Players at our wedding. Danny was super helpful throughout the planning process, making sure the band was set up to play all our favorite songs. They have a massive catalog and every member is extremely talented. They even learned a song for our first dance, making the moment unforgettable and very personal. I would highly recommend them for any wedding or event. You will not be disappointed!

We hired Rush Street Rhythm for our wedding and we are so grateful that we did! The band was absolutely incredible and hands down the highlight of our wedding. They are so talented and played all of the hit songs that we had requested - there wasn't a single second the entire night that the dance floor looked or felt empty. Danny and Laura were absolutely wonderful to work with throughout the entire planning process. They truly made our wedding so special and we cannot recommend them enough!

The Lakeshore Encores are such a fabulous band. The dancefloor at our wedding was packed all night long!

The Lakeshore Encores of Gold Coast Events played at our wedding at Thalia Hall in May 2019. To say they made the party is an understatement - one of our guests proclaimed "this isn't like a wedding, this is like a fancy concert!". Truly. due to in part to the band, people will be raving about our wedding for years 🙂

We could not be happier with Danny, Angela, Laura and the entire band. They were flexible, open to some of our crazy ideas, and most importantly had fun - and kept our guests having fun! The dance floor was non-stop for three hours (and they played a fabulous set 90 minutes during dinner, we watched our guests light up as they heard songs from the 90s and 00s they hadn't heard in years). Highly highly highly recommend.

We hired the chicago players for our wedding and they were unbelievable! The band was the highlight of our wedding. I can’t say enough great things about this company. Danny was great to work with to make sure we had a great night. The band is so talented and can play such a wide range of songs. Best wedding band I’ve seen!
