Hands down the easiest decision I made was booking Uptown Drive for my wedding in Houston.

Certified Original Lineup
The same band at every Houston wedding

Rehearsed as one band
The same core musicians play every show, so every cue, transition and special dance lands the way you planned it
Greg, start to finish
Your bandleader plans the music with you, works the timeline with your planner and emcees the whole night

Custom live sax EDM grand entrances for the bride, groom and wedding party
Your reception entrance should feel like a headline act. We build a custom live grand entrance for every couple, from the wedding party introductions to the moment you walk in as newlyweds.
Pick your grand entrance song or a mashup of two. We arrange it for the band, cue every couple on the beat and Greg emcees the introductions, so every name lands whether you are inside the Loop or out at a country club. Want the DJ to drop the track and live sax to take it from there? That one is a guest favorite.
From a Houstonian ballroom to a country club lawn in Hockley, it is the moment that sets the dance floor energy for the rest of the night
Live father-daughter dance and special dances with custom arrangements
The father-daughter dance, the mother-son dance, your first dance and the anniversary dance all hit differently when they are played live.
Houston venues each run their own timeline and hard stop, so we place your first dance, parent dances and any surprise medley with your planner early. Send us your cut and we write a custom arrangement, so every tempo change, pause and big finish lands where you rehearsed it.
List your special dance songs on your planning worksheet and we will learn the ones that mean the most to your family
A choreographed reception show with costume changes and a packed dance floor
When dinner wraps and the Gulf Coast heat gives way to a cool ballroom, the show starts. Our vocalists perform choreographed dance sets, change costumes through the night and take the show out onto the floor with your guests.
Expect call-and-response, sax solos and dance floor medleys from the first set to the last song, with DJ music between sets and a weather plan ready if the forecast turns.
Every detail is rehearsed, from the lighting cues to the last-song frenzy built around the two of you, so your Houston reception ends on a high

Planning a Houston wedding with a live band
Houston weddings range from Post Oak hotel ballrooms to country clubs and estate venues spread across The Woodlands, Katy and Montgomery. We drive in from Austin with our own sound, lighting and engineer, and Greg works your timeline with your planner and venue weeks ahead. It is the same live wedding band couples book across Texas and at destination weddings.
Travel built into your quote
Houston is about two and a half hours from Austin. Travel is part of every quote, so there are no surprise line items, and the band is loaded in, soundchecked and dressed before your guests arrive, inside the Loop or out in Hockley.
Heat and rain plans
Gulf Coast weather moves fast. For any courtyard, lawn or tented reception we plan shade, power, stage cover and a weather call with your venue ahead of time, and we are happy to move the band indoors when the forecast turns.
Ballrooms, clubs and estates
The Houstonian, The Corinthian and the city’s country clubs each have their own load-in docks, sound limits and hard stops. Our engineer keeps the mix inside them. Most Houston couples book 8 to 14 months out, and spring and fall Saturdays go first.
