My husband I and live in the San Francisco Bay Area. We thought that it would be simply amazing to have our wedding in Victoria. We did most everything online and those not found online were referrals from one of the contacts we had made online. We found Bryn Badel's website surfing the web and with every note streaming out of our computer we knew this was the band for our perfectly, magical wedding. We talked to Bryn on the phone and all of our hunches were confirmed. Bryn was the consummate professional and so easy to work with. My husband and I love jazz and Bryn and Lust Life is simply put, outstanding in every way. Settling on Bryn and Lust Life was the easy part. As I said, we live in California, so we only had one opportunity to meet, greet and see everything a few months before the wedding, everything else was taken care of remotely. And there was this small little problem with the amplifier. The B&B we chose for the wedding did not want the band to use one. Bryn stepped in and set everything straight. Did I mention that this didn't come up until a few weeks before the wedding? At the wedding, they made not only playing look easy, but interacting with the staff at the property, coordinating with the caterer, timing their breaks, keeping the music at just the right volume... completely transparent to us. Did I mention that Bryn and Lust Life is outstanding in every way? I wouldn't change a thing. The music set the tone... and made my wedding complete and perfect and magical. Thanks Bryn. Best regards ... Cordialmente ... Salutations ... Mit freundlichen Grüßen ... Pamela - San Francisco USA |
The Lust Life Jazz band played at our wedding and really set the mood for the night. They are a very talented band with a good playlist. They were willing to travel to our venue and they were very independent and competent, making things a lot easier for us. I would reccommend The Lust Life Jazz Band. Heather N.

How can we thank you for such amazing music at our wedding reception! You and your band just made the evening come alive! From the very beginning planning sessions where Steve and I described our vision you were professional and flexible. We really appreciated you listening to our thoughts and putting together a team that would suit our vision. It was wonderful that you had worked at the Union Club before and were familiar with the set up, so we didn’t have to worry about you getting settled in on that day. Thank you for playing a great mix of the songs we chose. All our guests really enjoyed the music, and just raved about the band. Thanks for making our reception memorable and perfect !

We cant recommend this band highly enough, they made our wedding complete. We let them decide what to play and it was perfect. They were professional and at the same time accomodating and friendly. All our guests have complimented us on how great they were. Definitely quality musicians. --Vanessa A. Vancouver, BC |
