More than just a band for a wedding reception. This is "Wedding Entertainment". You can find The Great Imponderables listed with other great entertainers such as .38 Special, Natalie Cole, The Temptations, and many more at East Coast Entertainment. If you want your wedding reception to be remembered, you'll want The Great Imponderables.

Here's what they've been up too:

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.

Band Gets Wedding Endorsement

After many weddings and reviews of other bands and DJ's, this is a portion of the e-mail that was sent to The Great Imponderables at the end of Castle Ladyhawke's  season:

"...would be most happy to know that you or your band will be entertaining at most of the weddings at the castle. 2010 will be a decisive year for Castle Ladyhawke! I feel good about the team we are putting together..."  (by Castle Owners)

Castle Ladyhawke has since made arrangements with Elite Events and Catering to offer in-house service packages that will include The Great Imponderables as in-house entertainers for wedding DJ's and reception band.  

Great Wedding Caterer

Our favorite caterer for weddings has been "Elite Catering" by Stacey Reeve's. Just this year alone, we have been to 6 weddings where Elite Catering was the vendor of choice. When we talked with the brides they told us  they chose Elite Catering because out of all the caterer's they had spoken with, this was the company that seemed to know what they were doing, no matter what was thrown at them. While the band may not know about all that, one thing we do know is quality food and great people. We have to work closely with all vendors at a wedding to make sure the bridal couple is having all of their needs taken care of. Elite Catering is certainly our "vendor of choice". The staff at Castle LadyHawke has also told us this is their favorite wedding caterer. The food is excellent, the staff is friendly, and we've never seen the same thing twice. We hear guests talking throughout the night about how wonderful their meal was. We certainly recommend them and apparently, so do the guests and bridal family.

You can visit their catering web site HERE.  We haven't done this with any other caterer. It's just our way of saying, "Thank You" to Stacey and her crew for taking such good care of the band and our DJ's.

NEW Reception Center for Weddings!

A most beautiful facility has launched its property into the wedding and wedding reception facility. Brides will love this new site as it has many options for either indoor weddings, with its new wedding and reception hall, or outdoor weddings, either by a huge pond with the mountains in the background, or under beautiful Willow trees. Outdoors, tents can even be erected. There is plenty of parking so no one has to leave the wedding to travel to the reception. It's only 10 minutes from Asheville airport, located in Mills River. Contact Forge Valley Event Center at 828-553-5706 .

    Highlands Wedding Brings National Recording Artist

The Great Imponderables have been playing weddings and corporate events in the Highlands and Cashiers area for many years. They even perform weddings at The Biltmore House, Grove Park Inn, Homewood, Castle LadyHawke, Crest Center, and many other fine venues. They've had the privilege of performing with many other performers at weddings and other events. However, this wedding was a little more special because of one of the guests. Damien Horne is a National recording artist. One of his songs, "She Can Fly", is some what of the theme song now for the Womens NBA. This bands favorite from Damien is "Heart of Africa". Damien has been traveling the country and the world. His latest efforts include performing with the Music MAFIA from Nashville. BTW, MAFIA is an acronym. The list includes other top performers like Gretchen Wilson, Hank, JR., and many more. Damiens' music is not country but a very diversified array. Damien is a very talented musician as well as singer. When he accepted our request to sing with the band, we very surprised, as well as appreciative. Damien had told us during a break, "You guy's are awesome". How could we not invite a true professional to join us. It was a blast. Damien is one of the nicest individuals you'll ever meet. We just wanted to tell him, "Thanks for hanging out with the band!" Oh yeah, Damien has a new album out. You owe it to yourself and your friends to check it out here. Thanks again Damien. We hope we get the chance to do it all again, soon.     -TGI (photo courtesy Regina Holder Photography)
