Hi Leslie,
Your contribution to making our wedding the best night ever is tremendously appreciated.
Our family and friends said you all were the best band they had ever seen at a wedding. There were so many moments that are appreciated, from a snippet of the NFL theme song after my step-dad’s speech to allowing a girlfriend of mine up on stage, and everything in between, it was such a fun party.
Thank you again, and if David and I decide to have a vow renewal party in the future, we will definitely call upon you! 😉
Best,
Haley Wenk and Ben Kessler Wedding (LondonHouse) – November 9, 2019
Leslie,
I wanted to take the opportunity to say a big THANK YOU for making our wedding so special. I can’t even count the number of people who mentioned to us how great the music was throughout the night at our wedding and I think you could tell with how filled the dance floor was the entire time.
If you ask me, I think the music makes the wedding and you and the band truly went above and beyond for us. I remember from the very beginning when looking at bands we wanted someone who could control the room but also knows how to have a good time and get everyone on the dance floor and from the start of the night that is exactly what happened.
Thank you for personally investing all your time into us and our vision for the night. Big thanks to the rest of the Entourage band for showing up and playing an incredible set of music for our guests.
I hope you and the band also enjoyed themselves throughout the night and got to take in the jam packed dance floor and everyone having a good time. You definitely have some new fans and I’d happy to be a reference anytime in the future as well.

Our guests thought they were at a concert. That's how good Entourage with Arlen Music Productions is. Honestly, the best band. Our guests danced and danced to the incredible music of Leslie Hunt and Entourage. Everyone wanted to know the name of this band. I wanted them to play all night long!
Sue Pinelli, Mother of the BrideLindsey Ottaviano Wedding - May 18, 2019
Good morning Leslie-
Words cannot describe the joy and fun your musical talents, along with the superb group of musicians and co-lead singer, brought to Lindsey and Dan’s reception….. but I will try.
There were people in attendance at the reception who have performed in Broadway musicals, professional musicians, etc.
EVERYONE was amazed at your level of musicianship, song selection, range of genres that you performed at a very high level of expertise.
A comment from the Broadway singer the next day- “no matter what song they chose…it was performed to perfection.”
A comment from a professional musician- “ I listen for any musical mistakes, missed notes….every note that every musician played on every song was perfect…..they didn’t miss anything. This band is one of the best…where did you find them?”
The gentleman who sang the prayer was Lindsey’s 89 year old grandfather on her mother’s side. We had no idea he was going to do that and appreciate your ability to go with the flow.
We have one more daughter who will be getting married and when that day arrives there is only one band that can perform for the event to make the evening as memorable as it can be…..Entourage!
Warmest regards-
Gary Ottaviano

Hi Leslie - You guys were amazing, amazing, amazing!! So happy with everything and we got a million compliments we accepted on your behalf :) I kept saying that if I wasn’t looking at you, it could have been a DJ because you sounded just like the original songs... but way more fun, of course. THANK YOU!!
Thank you again!
