Hi Kim,
Jon and I wanted to pass along our sincerest thanks to you, Ernest, and Hank Lane. We couldn’t have been happier with Ernest and his band at our wedding this Friday. The whole experience from the contract to the actual event was flawless. Thank you very much for your help!
Also, can you please pass along our appreciation below to Ernest?
Ernest,
You and your band were AMAZING Friday! Your energy was endless and the choice of music was appropriate for guests of all ages at our wedding. Now almost a week later, our friends and family are still raving about how “awesome the band was”. I’ve lost count of how many people asked about Hank Lane and your band in particular. People (including the groom) that never dance, danced that night–and had fun too! The dance floor was packed the whole night, and even when it came time for the night to end, lots of guests wanted the party to keep going. It is a testament to the fantastic job you did. it was hands down the best party I’ve ever been to, I only wish I was a guest! So many of our friends are now a fan of yours too. I’m hoping we’ll cross paths again at a friend’s future wedding! You truly helped make the night so memorable. We had such a good time, and hope you did too! Thanks again.
Best,
Katie and Jon

The following article was reported in The Queens Courier, in New York detailing a couple’s experience in selecting the right band for their wedding at Hank Lane Music.
“My friend Mark Mazor had one of the nicest weddings I have been to. The one thing I clearly remember was the music, which had everyone up on the dance floor the entire night. So I gave him a call to get the details. He told me that the band was from Hank Lane Music.”

To the entire Hank Lane Team…
It is with our sincerest gratitude that we send this letter, thanking you and your company for your participation on our hit show, My Fair Wedding with David Tutera. This season has been the biggest and the best yet, due in no small part to the amazing vendors that worked with us.
Collaborating with your company on the music and entertainment for each of our New York episodes resulted in the best season of special acts that we have ever done. Your outstanding roster of talent never ceased to impress us or suit our various themes, and whenever we had an idea for something especially unique, like dueling pianos or casino games, you made that happen too. Episode after episode your company literally set the pulse for our themes and brought David’s visions to life. Your partnering with us also made the dreams of some very lucky couples and their families a reality – and we know the viewers will feel the same way in each of their homes.
Working with you all was a wonderful and smooth process for us. We thank you for all of the time and talents that went into this season, as we know that keeping up with weekly weddings of this caliber was no small task. We hope that you enjoyed the experience as much as we did, and look forward to future opportunities to work together.
Don’t forget to tune in Sundays at 10pm on WeTV to watch the entire season!
Sincerely,
David and The Tutera Team

To all involved in Wendy and Peter’s wedding:
First to Spencer, who answered all of our questions and helped us each step of the way–thank you soo much. Second to Michael, who helped us with our song selections and reassurances; and lastly and mostly to the Dane Wright Band, who just brought it all home for us. It was a joy not to worry about any part of this process.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts,
Cindy and Milton

Dear Dane Wright Band,
We just wanted to let you know how happy we were with your performance at our wedding in September. The dance floor was packed and so many of our guests kept coming up to us to tell us how wonderful you were.
Thanks for bringing your best to our day!!

Michael Hart with Dana & Brandon.
Hi Michael,
I really do not even know where to begin. Thank-you does not seem to appropriately express my gratitude towards all that you and your band did on Sunday. We are still getting calls about how amazing you guys were. You truly made the party!! Brandon and I had the best time ever and I believe a BIG part of that was due to what you guys did. I am sure you were all tired from your big night Sat night but you put on quite a show and made us feel really important and special.
Brandon cannot believe how you guys played all of his favorite songs including Better Man which is his ring tone. I think our taste in music might have been slightly different than most bride ang grooms and my parents were hesitant how that would work at a wedding but it did and it gave people something to talk about and remember forever!!! I really appreciate the way you worked with us in guiding us and listening to the type of music we like and delivering. It gave it that personal touch compared to all the usual songs that are typically heard at a wedding.
I also appreciate how you allowed Brandon and his friend to play with you guys. That was definitely one of the highlights of the day for me and one we will never ever forget. The whole party loved it!!! I cannot wait to see the video of that along with the whole wedding. Brandon and I were talking about how we felt like we were at a concert and were mesmerized by you guys. I forgot all about my broken ankle and was a dancing machine (which is a lot considering I cannot dance).
You are all so talented and I wish you all the best. I look forward to hearing your name and all the other big celebrity parties that you will do in the future so I can brag that you played my wedding as well!
I know my sister who was not so keen on the idea of having a big wedding and all that now has changed her mind as long as she can have you guys.
Thank you again from the bottom of my heart for everything and for making my dream wedding a reality. You are all incredible!!
Dana and Brandon

Kim,
Just had to write and say the our DJ was WONDERFUL! He played all our requests and everyone kept telling us how great he was. He got them dancing — I can’t say more than that but would be more than happy to recommend him if you ever need me to. Please pass them along to him and thanks so much for all of your help. I know I kept making changes!
Thanks so much
