ANOTHER 5 STAR PERFORMANCE RATING

The Great Imponderables appreciate the opportunity to perform for weddings in the Highlands, NC area. One such wedding reception was at Inn at Half-Mile Farm. Not only was this a beautiful setting, but the staff and The Farm were very helpful.

Although the weather on that day did prove a force to be reckoned with, the band, along with the staff at The Farm, was able to pull it off. Most important was the ability of the guests to adjust. Having said all of that, it proved to be another great night of live music and dancing.

In order to continue to provide the best service to their clients, The Great Imponderables ask the bridal couple to visit an on-line site to rate the band after such performances. This allows the band to see how they may improve, as well as gives future brides a place to read reviews.

We are pleased to see that another happy bridal couple has given them the highest marks possible to their booking agent! This is yet another "5 Star" rating for the band, keeping them on top and already 2011 awards and accolades are forthcoming.

BAND DECLINES CASINO OFFER

Known for their ability to get people to get up and have a great time, The Great Imponderables were recently contacted by an entertainment agency for Harrah's Casino. The agency was looking for the best entertainers in the region to become a part of the Casino family. As a result, these bands will perform each week at the Casino, receiving good compensation. "We chose not to be a part", said the manager for the band. "While we do enjoy fund raisers and corporate events, weddings are what we're all about". The Great Imponderables have built their image around weddings and have won several awards as "The Best of the Best", "Brides Choice", "Best (regional) Wedding Band", and the list goes on. As a result, the band does not play in night clubs, proms, etc. These are truly "Wedding" Professionals.

FAIRY TALE WEDDINGS AT THE CASTLE

You can have a DJ at your wedding, or you can have a wedding professional.  A DJ will play music, but a wedding professional knows how to keep things moving.  In fact, nothing can kill a wedding reception faster than a DJ playing the wrong music.

While there are many great songs, there are just as many that have no place at a wedding reception. Also, the reception is more than just music. It's about everyone having a great time and enjoying your special event with you.

These are some highlights from a beautiful wedding that was held at Castle Ladyhawke, near Asheville and Highlands, NC.

A special thanks to Spindle Photography for sharing these wedding photo's.

Our New Friend

Everyone knows that the Make A Wish Foundation is a great organization. However, few people get to experience it the way that we have. Although the band has been associated with Make A Wish for nearly 6 years, this year was very special to us. It marks the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Central & WESTERN NC's 25th year of granting wishes in the Charlotte and Asheville Areas.  When we were chosen as the Band for this event, the honor was above anything we could ask. However, the real plus came from meeting some of the kids in our area and their families. A very special young man is Nicholas, whom you see in this photo.
