"17 SOUTH rocked our wedding reception!  We really enjoyed their
high energy and great sound.  They kept our guests dancing all
night long and were loads of fun.  The best part is that they were
having as much fun on stage as we were under the tent.  We can't
wait to see them perform again."

Stephen & Jaime Fernandez - Charleston Tea Plantation
"Wow!  We knew that music was a priority for the wedding and 17
SOUTH was better than we ever could have hoped.  Your charisma,
talent, and ability to gauge your music to the pulse of the guests is
the mark of true professionals.  Your rendition of ''Can't Take My
Eyes Off of You" was perfect for the Bridal Dance.  Thank you so
much for helping Anna and Ryan's   wedding reception to be so
much fun!!!"

"What a great night you guys provided in helping us to enjoy
Ashley and Tim's wedding.  The compliments are still coming our
way on what a great band 17 SOUTH is.   The variety you provide
and the artistic level you perform is second to none.  Thanks for
such a wonderful night!"

...Dean Crabtree  -  Dunes West Golf Club
"17 SOUTH,  Robert and I wanted to thank you very much for
playing at our wedding!  Ya'll went above and beyond our
expectations.  You truly made our reception the most rockin',
fabulous event we have ever been a part of.  The dance floor was
packed the entire time and we heard countless compliments after
the wedding on how much everyone enjoyed your performance.  
You helped make our wedding night!"

Sincerely,
 Anna Rhett & Robert Miller - The Mills House  
"17 SOUTH is a great band partly because they are so versatile
(big band, jazz, beach and contemporary rock) but also because
they are an accomplished group of musicians. The saxophone
player was exceptional.  They played outside, under a tent for us
and provided a full, strong sound.  Over and over we were told
“great band”.  They worked on a special song for the “first dance”
that was not in their repertoire.  It was “perfect”!  They were easy to
work with, willing to play the songs we requested (we love beach
music) but we also used the songs on their list because they do
them so well.  The reception had a “magical” feel and I think that
the brass sound 17 South brought was a key part of creating that!   
Thanks so much!!"

"Hey, guys! Just wanted to shoot you a quick email to let you know
how wonderful the wedding was and especially how great the music
was. I so appreciate you learning Corey Smith's "First Dance" for
us and all the hard work you put into building up the music of the
song to incorporate the whole band, it sounded so much better
than I could have hoped for! Mom forwarded to me the music score
you wrote; that was so sweet of you!  Thank you so much and best
of luck to you all in the future! I'll be sure to drop your name if I
ever hear of anyone looking for a great band!  Thanks, again!"

"Phil,  I'd like to thank 17 SOUTH for playing at our Senior Oyster
Roast.  Everyone really enjoyed your performance!  I have never
received so much positive On behalf of Delta Delta Delta, I would
like to thank you for feedback about a band hired for a function
before!  I will definitely be in touch with you about our events in the
fall!  Thanks again, Phil."

"Thanks 17 SOUTH Band for an outstanding performance at our
son's wedding reception.  Because of my musical background, I
wanted a top notch band that would offer an outstanding sound
(with a full horn section) and a song selection that would appeal to

all age groups. Your band gave an outstanding performance and
played an integral part in making the wedding reception a huge
success.  My wife and I are still receiving comments about that
"fabulous band" from the Low Country."

Sonny Emanuel  - Reception - Wickliffe House
"Dear 17 SOUTH,  Thank you so much for playing at our reception!
 Everyone had a great time thanks mainly to ya'll setting a perfect
party mood.  Cory and I couldn't stop dancing, and ending with
"Domino" was just how we wanted to round out the night.  Thanks
again,

Corey Prescott  -  The Vue at Ripley Point  - Charleston  
"Dear 17 SOUTH, Your band did a phenomenal job!  The song
selection was tremendous. Your ability to adapt to our wedding
crowd was extraordinary. The sound quality was excellent. Truly,
you are an accomplished group of fine musicians.   The brass
section provided the excitement to pull everyone up on their feet
  
to dance the night away.  We thank you!"
