  • Serves Jackson, MS

Griffin and the Gargoyles is St. Louis’ premier high-energy party and dance band. Having won the 2020 St. Louis Post Dispatch’s “Readers Choice Favorite Band” award as well as the “Best Wedding Band” by the Perfect Wedding Guide’s Vendors’ Choice Awards six years in a row, musicianship and style is the reason Griffin and the Gargoyles has played to packed houses for many years. Their extensive play-list and freshness keeps the crowds coming back for more.

Griffin & The Gargoyles came together last minute to play at our wedding. We had another band lined up that canceled five days prior and while I was upset at the time, I lucked out! They are hands down the best, most fun and entertaining band you could hire! They will get the dance floor moving and it will be a blast all night long! Look no further. If you are reading this, then you should take my advice and book them already!

Bow Tied Experiences

5.0

Atlanta, GA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves Jackson, MS for additional fees

👋🏻Oh hey gang, I'm Matthew, the Wedding DJ and Coordinator with Bow Tied Experiences. My aim is help fun-loving couples with a seamless experience by coordinating the music, the timeline, the layout, and all the details, so you can have a fun and stress-free wedding celebration. 🎉Leading up to your wedding celebration, I'll get started by helping to ease the stress of wedding planning with a complimentary date night experience. A couple months out we can start diving into the details, schedule a walkthrough at your venue with your whole wedding team, and begin finalizing your timeline, the layout, and of course, the music.

Awarded Best of Zola
Matt and Karese have been so helpful through the planning process. From the moment we booked even until after our wedding they made sure we had a great experience. I can go on and on about why you should book them but one thing that stands out more than the rest to me is on the day of our wedding, Matt noticed our crowd liked to be outside rather than inside where he originally had setup. Recognizing that, he asked us if we would be ok (after the formalities finished) if he moved his set outside to better serve our guests. Of course we said yes and it took him 5 minutes to switch locations mid wedding and nobody even noticed because he had music playing on a speaker inside the whole time he moved his stuff. Bow Tied Weddings definitely goes above and beyond for their couples! I recommend booking them for any event!

We are an experienced and interactive band based out of Atlanta, Georgia. With years of experience performing throughout the Southeastern United States, we’ve had the privilege of playing at some of the most prestigious venues, such as The Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. With the ability to customize Tasteful Tea's number of members from a duet to a 12-person strong big band, you can ensure that the sound is exactly what you want. Our song list spans a wide range of genres and eras, so you can pick the tunes that mean the most to you.

First of all: during our reception, countless people came up and asked where we had found this band; they were that good!! This band kept our friends and family of all generations on the dancefloor. Tasteful Tea worked with us to add specific instruments that we wanted for our favorite music genres and had a great song list to look at for reference. They knew how to read a room and keep the party going (without cheesy get-on-the-dancefloor songs). So kind and really made our reception the blast that it was!
