Vinyl District was hands down one of the highlights of our wedding. From the very first song to the last, their energy was unmatched! They were not only incredibly talented but also genuinely wonderful people who knew exactly how to read the room, keep the vibes high, and keep the dance floor packed all night long. At times, it honestly felt like we were at an arena concert rather than a wedding!
Every song, every transition, and every moment felt electric. Our guests had the time of their lives, and even after our wedding, our friend and family are STILL talking about how incredible they were. They created the kind of atmosphere you dream about when planning your wedding, and we truly cannot thank them enough for making our night so unforgettable.
If you want a band that brings the energy, gets everyone involved, and turns your wedding into an absolute PARTY, book Vinyl District! We would choose them a thousand times over. They didn't just play our wedding — they made it an experience none of us will ever forget! Thank you , thank you, thank you! Kurt Richard + Leo

We hired the Vinyl District (of The Silver Alchemist) for our wedding reception and they were awesome! Far exceeded our expectations in every way. They were super fun, braved the summer heat in our outdoor setting, learned a few specific songs for us, and made the whole evening super fun and engaging. Easy to work with and helped us with sound/mics for speeches as well. Can't recommend them highly enough.

I had so many people reach out to me the day after the wedding asking who the band was and just praising how fun they were. We requested they learn a few songs to their already amazing set list and they did that with zero issue. They weren't easy songs either! Like I'm not kidding, we requested they learn Sabotage by the Beastie Boys and when that came on and they started absolutely killing it, we all lost our minds. It was one of my favorite memories of my wedding day. I truly could not recommend this band enough. I would hire them over and over!

vorite song played on the violin and a Christmas classic played on a violin. They made sure my wedding day was absolutely perfect. The songs and the timing were beyond anything I could’ve imagined and they even played an overhead speech that I had recorded. This made a winter wedding so much more magical and for that I thank everyone- the violinist and the head coordinator Andre, who ensured that everything was lined up how it should be. I couldn’t have asked for better. Thank you all so very much. Highly recommend.

was beyond worth it — the energy never dropped for a second.
Their range was incredible — from “Joy of My Life” for our first dance to “September” to “Pink Pony Club,” every song was executed flawlessly. So many of our guests came up to tell us how amazing the band was, and we couldn’t agree more.

Throughout the planning process, they thought of every detail and were able to accommodate our venue’s special requirements. They did this all while preparing to travel to Door County, WI.

chemist. From the beginning planning phases, André was super communicative and helpful and answered a bunch of questions from us. The help with the ceremony sound system hook ups was super helpful, and Rob did an amazing job emceeing our reception. We had a few delays during dinner and the band was very flexible. When it was finally time for them to play, they brought an AMAZING energy from the first beat, and the dance floor was packed the rest of the night! It was the most fun few hours of my entire life, and we’ve gotten so many compliments on the band that we’ve lost count! My husband surprised me by coordinating with the band beforehand and I got invited onstage to perform with them (which was my dream - thank you!!). I could tell the band was having fun too, which was awesome. THANK YOU THANK YOU for making our reception something we started reminiscing about the moment we left the venue that night. 11/10 recommend this band!!

I am from Chicago but had a wedding in Wisconsin where the band traveled to so most of my guests had not heard of them. I am getting almost daily comments on how fun the band was and if they can use them for their upcoming events. I wish I was getting married again just to dance the night away again! They knew all the right songs to play and kept everyone on the dance floor all night which was our biggest request.

le event an awesome energy. Our guests were dancing the whole time they were playing. We also had a couple of very particular song requests that they pulled off with aplomb, including accompanying the groom on vocals for one number. All of the band members were excellent musicians, and it was easy to work with André, the bandleader, about the timeline and logistics of the event. Silver Alchemist also provided audio equipment for the wedding ceremony, which had a few unusual requirements (a large amount of vocal microphones and instrument inputs for musical performances during the ceremony), but this was absolutely no problem. They provided a DJ for the afterparty as well, which was very fun, kept people dancing, and proceeded without a hitch.

late musically, but their communication and prep exceeded expectations. They know how to listen to the crowd, and the bride/groom.

fondly recall having fun at a previous wedding! We reached out with excitment knowing this band was going to be amazing and memorable and they did not disappoint! From the beginning, working with Andre, we reviewed the style of music, song choices, what they offered and vibe of our wedding reception together. Andre worked with us and our budget to put a band together that both met our financial and musical needs. Andre worked with us and our Cantor to put music together for our wedding ceremony, learning new music and working our wedding planner on the ceremony timing. We were impressed with the contract and song offerings as well - very clear, detailed and professional. Andre had amazing communication and we felt down to the last detail, the band know what we were looking for and want music we wanted to hear. Our wedding reception hora, dancing and music was so fun and memorable for us and our guests. We had the best time at our reception and love looking at the photos and videos of us dancing to the band. Andre and the band had a beautiful set up on the stage, with lighting, brought talented singers and musicians. We cannot thank Andre and the band for all the support in planning our wedding but also in making our wedding ceremony and reception unforgettable. We continue to get compliments on how fun our wedding reception was and we have The Silver Alchemist to thank for that. We are so glad we chose The Silver Alchemist and would highly recommend this band to anyone!

The energy they brought was contagious and many of our guests called them best wedding band they've ever seen. The dance floor was packed all night, and it was impossible not to get caught up in the fun.
Thank you, The Silver Alchemist, for making our wedding so magical! Their professionalism, talent, and attention to detail made all the difference. We’d hire them again in a heartbeat and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding band!

In our first meeting we discussed concerns we had with sound and volume, because we had been to a few weddings recently where the band just blew guests away with sound - you know exactly what I'm talking about.

In addition to that, they were so good to work with and the forms and processes they developed worked really well for us to make sure everything was perfect. We can't recommend them highly enough!

times to perfect every detail. On the big day, their performance was beyond incredible, and we couldn’t have been happier to have them there.
They went above and beyond, learning three new songs for us (including a niche string piece) in just a few days. The MC kept the energy high, and it was a hit with our bridal party to learn that the cellist had worked with Taylor Swift!
Our guests still rave about the band, calling it one of the best they’ve ever seen. We couldn’t agree more—we danced the night away and will forever be grateful for The Silver Alchemist’s unforgettable performance.

The MC was offering to fetch our head table drinks, checking in with us throughout the evening on timing, and very communicative. They were also super organized leading up to the day—and even more so the day of. Truly just a really great group of people. Can’t recommend them enough.

ermined that one of our "big 3 wedding priorities" (the 3 we couldn't live without) was that we wanted an AMAZING band. Andre and The Silver Alchemist band did not disappoint! From start to finish, Silver Alchemist demonstrated not only their exceptional musical talents but also their unwavering dedication to making our wedding day truly magical.
On the big day, Silver Alchemist set the perfect tone with their music, creating an atmosphere filled with love, joy, and an amazing energy. The top-tier quality of their sound and the unmatched musical abilities of each band member were immediately apparent. The variety in their repertoire was outstanding, catering to all ages and musical preferences. Our guests were on their feet from the first note to the last, and the dance floor was alive with energy throughout the entire reception. Silver Alchemist seamlessly transitioned between genres and styles, showcasing not only their talent but also their versatility.
Not only were they musically exceptional, but the professionalism of Andre and the band was also commendable. They were punctual, well-prepared, and seamlessly integrated with other aspects of the wedding. Their attention to detail and commitment to making our day special did not go unnoticed, and we received numerous compliments from our guests about the fantastic live music (and are still getting compliments 2 months later)!!
If you're searching for a wedding band that goes above and beyond to create an unforgettable experience, look no further than The Silver Alchemist's. Their passion for music, genuine desire to contribute to the joy of your day, and the top-tier quality of their sound and musical expertise make them a standout choice. Thank you, Silver Alchemist for being an integral part of our big day!

I have spent the last several days reliving our day by replaying videos of the band and of all our favorite people dancing together. We owe The Silver Alchemist a HUGE thank you for making our celebration sound and feel even better than we could have imagined.

The silver alchemist are INCREDIBLE and blew us all away at our wedding. We worked closely with Andre to create a set list that included the wedding classics, songs from the early ...
2000’s, top 40 songs, and college game day hits. The band is incredible at every song but shines for the Top 40’s. The band has also developed a few medleys that perfectly build up the energy on the dance floor and keep it going with no breaks between songs. Our dance floor was packed from start to finish. We have been fortunate to see a lot of great wedding bands in Chicago, New York, and Los Angeles, and the Silver Alchemist is in league with the best out there. If you are looking for bands in the Minneapolis area, you must choose this band.

Incredible! The Silver Alchemist helped make our wedding so special. We have nothing but great things to say about the band. Most importantly, they absolutely rocked the performanc...
e. The lead singers were mesmerizing and the band can play such a wide array of songs - from Van Morrison to Katy Perry to all the Motown classics. The most amazing thing was that even though there was a wide array of genres and styles, they played all of them so so well. The dance floor was packed the entire night and the band was one of the main things everyone was talking about the next day.
The music was phenomenal -- and the process leading up to the big day also was super smooth. We had a feeling after our first Zoom with Andre that he and the band were true professionals. They were very responsive (and pleasantly persistent when we were less responsive). They worked with us to customize the set list for what we wanted and made everything seamless on wedding day.
I cannot recommend The Silver Alchemist enough! We actually feel quite lucky to have been able to book them a bit early in their tenure -- I have a feeling this band is going to be hard to book in the future as the word gets out. They are that good.

The talent in this band is just ridiculous. You will often be asking yourself whether the band is playing or you are listening to the record. In my opinion, best wedding band in th...
