"On behalf of the P&C events team and myself, I can’t say thank you enough for providing the most perfect entertainment for Charleston’s Choice. The Rising Tide was without a doubt the live music this crowd needed and most certainly enjoyed. I can’t imagine we won’t be working together again in the future and look forward to doing so when that happens.

You guys absolutely killed it!! Seriously everything was so wonderful, and I can’t keep talking about how good you all were with everyone haha. We’ve gotten so many questions if you’d travel 😂. It means so much to us that you took the time to learn Accidentally in Love and you absolutely killed the Talking Heads. Thank you for making our night extra special and truly you guys are awesome.

You know, I always believed the music would make our event unforgettable. And I was certain The Rising Tide Band would be the one to achieve our goal. And you did, indeed, help to make that happen. In any case, in the end, we just want to thank all of you for making our event so unique and fantastic. All of you are great musicians, but the Rising Tide Band is just so much greater and impressive than your individual talents. Thank you all for helping to make our fairy tale evening a reality!

They were fantastic! Everyone loved the band and their energy. The dance floor stayed packed even during their very short break. They were kind enough to re-learn Country Roads to honor my home state of West Virginia. It meant so much to all of us. My 87 year old father even asked to be moved closer to the band so he could enjoy the fun! The band invited Elizabeth and her new husband Nick on stage to close out the night with Taylor Swift’s “Love Story”. Perfect ending to their new beginning! Thank you for your help and recommendation!

They were the absolute BEST! I don’t have enough words to describe how much fun we had thanks to them. They played every song we requested + dealt with some pretty rowdy guests. They even performed Taylor Swift for me :) They also got us a sweet, personal gift. All of our friends want them at their weddings!

If you’re looking for a wedding band, look no further!!! I truly can’t thank you all enough for how amazing you were at my wedding!! From beautiful vocals, letting my guest play the tambourine on the dance for and allowing our fathers up on stage to sing along it was truly a night to remember!!!! Each guest has made it a point to tell me how great you guys are and asked for your contact info!! I look forward to booking you for our next big event!

Jay, I don't have enough words to articulate the overflow of emotion we have towards The Rising Tide. All I can say is you guys absolutely positively without a doubt CRUSHED it. The band made the entire night, for everyone. We could not possibly be any happier with your performance and your collective demeanor - professional, punctual, friendly, helpful, involved, accommodating. You brought the house down with all of our absolute favorite songs, the perfect cadence to the night, lots of volume and enthusiasm. Each one of you is a truly fantastic, talented performer. Charlotte was the most incredible vocalist; literally every single person was ROCKED by her!!!!!!! It was so far above and beyond all our greatest expectations. And, the horns section, WOW. Absolutely worth the add-on and I would recommend it to ALL your future clients. My mom's sister was our longest married couple, and they waffled on even attending the wedding, and I cannot tell you how special that moment was to put the spotlight on their 42 years of bliss! They were absolutely tickled pink and the song choice was perfect! Seriously, Charlotte, again, WOW. Thank you for playing our request line, ending with Dancing Queen while dancing in a circle with my sisters and cousins and best friends belting our lungs out... it was everything I dreamed of. Tom and his brothers were absolutely ecstatic when the horns came on and followed out the front lobby - THANK YOU for going the extra mile for them. Each little moment with you guys was so special and memorable. You are genuinely the best wedding band our crew has ever, ever witnessed and there are several discerning musicians in the crowd LOL!!!! My uncle plays guitar in a sort of classic rock bank and do a lot of beach boys covers, they are so judgmental on sound quality and he told me beforehand "don't do a live band it's such a gamble." Boy, you showed him!!!! Ha!!!!!! Finally, to receive the framed sheet music of our first dance song was the most thoughtful, intentional, kind and unexpected gesture. I was utterly shocked. It moved me so deeply to work with people like that. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. Our wedding night was a dream come true because of you. Love, Sheradin & Tom

The Rising Tide did an incredible job at our wedding and I can't say enough good things. They were very accommodating to all of our requests and last minute decisions, couldn't have been more professional, and gave us a very thoughtful wedding gift to top it off. All of our friends/family have not stopped complimenting them so I hope their schedule is filling up for 2020! Thanks for all your help!

We loved you all Saturday night. Have't seen that many dancers all night in a long time. this might be my new favorite, especially since they are more reasonable than a lot of the other bands, partly because there are only 6 players--but boy do they make the most of those 6 players. Everyone loved them.

We had such a good time with The Rising Tide. We have heard a lot of “The band was awesome” from the guests. It was perfect from our perspective. And pulling off the late-add song for the closer was an extra great surprise! Thank you guys so much. I hope you guys keep killing it out there. Really helps that you all seem to have so much fun with it. Infinite thanks,
- Dan & Christina

I just wanted to thank you guys for the performance last night. I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to chat with you in person, but I really appreciate the nice job you all did. And the framed sheet music gift was great and so nice of you guys. Thanks so much
