Wedding bands

Does anyone know of any good wedding bands in the Delaware/Philadelphia area?  We are looking to stay under $4,000, but a lot of the bands I have inquired with are more than $8,000.  Any suggestions would be very helpful! Thank you!

    It really depends on what you are looking for.  There are plenty of places that have bands for ~$1000.

    Where are you looking that bands cost close to $8k?  That's crazy, IMO. 

    We spent $1600 on my bridal set, including the center stone.  We spent around $200 on his ring, which is Tungsten. 

    We went to Jared, and actually were very pleased there.  If you want something for a good price, though, and want many places to look at once, I would head to Jeweler's Row in Philly.

    MBR--I think she means band as in to play at the reception, not bridal set.  Though that's what I thought she meant at first, too.

    If you look on the link on my signature, and go over to vendors, you'll be able to see a list of bands/djs that girls all over the area have used.

    Two weddings i've been to in the past few years had bands, and they were both FANTASTIC.  I don't know how much they are.  I know the one band wasn't cheap, because they're one of the most popular bands in the area, but I can't remember the name.  I'll ask them for you.

    One of the weddings used "The Quake."

    They were pretty awesome.

    The other band was "Dame"

    This one may be out of your price range... I'm not sure.  I know that my friends wanted to spend their money on the band.  And their band was pretty awesome.  I know that they also won a few "Best of Philly" awards as well.  And these guys do travel, because my friend's wedding was in Avalon NJ.

    Ahhh now it makes a heck of a lot more sense!

    If you ask on the Philly board, several girls have used bands there, and most of them will travel.  I wish I knew the name of the one band everyone raves about...maybe it's EBE?  Anyway, if you post on the Philly board, they should be able to help you more.  Most girls from DE do DJs, while girls from Philly are a mix of both.

    Yeah, EBE is VERY popular over on the Philly board.  And you can get DJs and bands from there.  Some girls actually have had both.
