Radiance | Testimonials


August 14 , 2010 - Cruiseport - Gloucester

Radiance was everything Tim claimed and more. RADIANCE made the wedding amazing.


July 31 , 2010 - Boston Waterfront Hotel - Boston

I was beyond impressed with Radiance. I knew they were a great band based on their press package, but they far exceeded my expectations. I received compliments all night long about the band, and they should all be passed on to Radiance. I will be recommending them to everyone I know who is getting married in the area, or just looking for an excellent group of musicians!

July 17 , 2010 - Colonade Hotel - Boston


Radiance was just great. The guests danced most of the night which was what we wanted. Many people asked us where we found such a great band.
Some people had to dance on the rug because the dance floor was so packed!

We had such a great time and the band was great. The band can make or break the wedding. And they rocked! Thank you!

Tim Wilson was great to work with. He was very responsive to all my questions and made the booking process very easy - thanks!

You guys rocked. Plus we very much appreciated you learning our first dance song "Here Comes the Sun"...you played it absolutely perfectly and just as we hoped.

Great job Radiance! We only wished we had made more time for you to play and for the guests to dance. The night was over too quickly!

May 29, 2010 - Belle Mer - Newport

I wish that I could have Radiance come to my house every weekend and play. They were that good. All of our frieds said it was the best wedding band ever. We had so much fun. All of the vocalists are incredibly talented, every single song was absolutely perfect!! I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Hi Tim,

Can’t thank you enough for referring Radiance to me for my Bride’s wedding on Saturday at the Boston Public Library … they were sensational … great energy, great voices, GREAT attitudes and really gave the crowd a lot to enjoy! I found myself finding it hard to stop watching them and concentrate on this (very difficult) client!!!

Sal … you are a real joy to work with, and it would be my pleasure to have you at every one of my weddings!!! I wish I could!

Thank you both so very much.

Warmly,

November 7, 2009 - Renaissance Boston Waterfront Hotel

Radiance was great! Many of our guests commented on how talented and enthusiastic our band was. We were very happy with the bands selections of songs and their music overall. They definitely got everyone up and dancing the entire night. Our only concern was that the dance floor was too small to accommodate everyone dancing!!

Sharon Rosemark


October 17, 2009 - Veronique Ballroom

Sal, Now that the dust has settled and everyone is back to normal, I needed to take a moment to thank you for an outstanding job at Ali & Scott’s wedding. Radiance did not disappoint! The dance floor was packed the entire night and we have had raves from everyone from ages 26 to 70. Several people (who know about such things) even asked if I brought you in from New York. You guys blew the roof off The Veronique from start to finish...every one was on the dance floor to the bitter end. And the highlight was the addition of that second trumpet player. What a find! He was spectacular!!

Again our thanks, and we will all recommend you highly to anyone who asks (actually, I think Ali already got you a gig or two). All the best,

Don & Nancy
Ali & Scott

RADIANCE was unbelievable! Great great night!

Jeff Stern (Father of bride)

From the bride...

Hi Sal!

"I just wanted to thank you SO SO much for playing at our wedding a couple of weekends ago. I cannot even begin to explain how AWESOME the band was...I literally can not get over it, and all of our family and friends won't stop talking about how good you sounded, the amazing energy you created and how they were just astounded by your talent. I just heard our "first dance" song (Al Green, Lets Stay Together) on the radio and it immediately transported me back to the wedding and listening to you play and dancing with my new husband and just feeling incredible! You really turned the wedding into the celebration of a lifetime and I will never ever forget it. Every single one of you was so professional and so extremely talented and fun! I thank you from the bottom of my heart for the best night of our lives!

Take Care,

Amanda Stern

Enough said, Barbara


July 4, 2009 - Residence - Casco Bay, Maine

1) Quality Of Music: "excellent" - "They were bar none the best wedding (or cover band) my wife and I have ever seen. Radiance not only has an awesome range of music in which they cover but they play EVERYTHING well. Most bands play a wide range but don't do it very succesfully.!"

2) Choice Of Music: "excellent" - "Worked with the band to tailor what they would play to the what our crowd liked."

3) Grooming and Attire: "excellent"

4) emceeing : "excellent"

5) Break Schedule: "excellent" "Only complaint is that the night had to end!"

My fiance/wife & I loved Radiance. Since the event our guests have told us over and over again what an awesome band we got and asked where we found them.

Karen and I are very particular when it comes to our music. We are both very into all kinds of music and were very concerned about getting stuck with a "cheesy" wedding band. Radiance is all that we could have ever hoped for. Please feel free to have ANY referrals contact us at.

June 14 , 2009 - Mount Washington Resort- Bretton Woods

Sal was really quick to get back to me and always took the time to talk to me about the upcoming event.

1) Quality Of Music: "excellent" - "I sometimes couldn't believe that the music wasn't coming from a recording! They were fabulous!"

2) Choice Of Music: "excellent" - "They knew just what to play to get people up on the dance floor! "

Marisa F. Helfer


June 13 , 2009 - Milton Hoosic Club

1) Quality Of Music: "excellent" - "They are by far the best band we've ever heard. We went out and saw 20+ bands when deciding for our wedding and they were by far THE BEST!

2) Choice Of Music: "excellent" - "Music was very appropriate to wedding guests, they loved the band and I heard one guest say "they play music I know""

3) Grooming and Attire: "excellent"

4) emceeing : "excellent"

5) Break Schedule: "excellent" - "They took breaks at times that were great, you barely noticed it."

As I said before, we were very picky about selecting the right wedding band. We looked at over 20 bands, independent bands, Wilson Stevens bands, and referral from friends. Radiance was our favorite by a mile and after we realized it we had to have them! We liked them so much that after we booked them we continued going to their showcases (about 4) just to see them. ! We are radiance groupies and my husband already said he wants to go see them again. They fulfilled and exceeded all of our expectations. We kept hearing from guests "best wedding band ever" and "best wedding I've ever been too" Thanks to Radiance and Sal :)

April 4 , 2009- Oceancliff - Newport, RI

Sal is so easygoing and fun, he asked all the right questions and was so accommodating, learning and playing songs for us that werent on the play-list.

1) Quality Of Music: "excellent"

2) Choice Of Music: "excellent"

3) Grooming and Attire: "excellent"

4) emceeing : "excellent"

5) Break Schedule: "excellent" - "We hardly noticed when they took a break! It was all so seamless. "

I can't tell you how many guests came up to us during the wedding to say that RADIANCE was the best wedding band they'd ever heard. They were just amazing, so talented and so fun, and they knew exactly how to get the crowd going. Guests from both sides were on the dance floor all night long (I dont think many people actually ate their dinners!) My 5 year old niece/ flower girl was enthralled with one of the lead vocalists (Marianne) and spent hours dancing in front of the band. We didnt want the night to end!

January 17, 2009 - State Room

Hey Sal!

I had to take a minute to write to not only thank you and the band for an INCREDIBLE night and an INCREDIBLE performance, but to share some of the praises I've heard. People cannot stop talking about you guys (silly me, I thought I stole the show with the white fur on my shoes ... ha!) Honestly, everyone Clem and I have heard from is going crazy about how great you guys were. And I'm talking people of all ages and genders, and (most impressively) snooty people from New York who never compliment anything unless it comes from Long Island. I've also been hearing a lot about a full-on split during Purple Rain that blew people away ... can't wait to see it on the video!!

Please pass along my thanks to everyone in RADIANCE (and a specific thanks to the sax player from my dad who was wowed by his solo in the Paul Simon song you learned). Clem and I would love to do anything we can to publicize how great Radiance is and/or refer other people to you, so please let us know what we can do.

Thanks again so much. We'll be doing our best to crash your next event.

Radiance was a wonderful band to work with! Sal actively reached out beforehand to set the schedule for the night and the music was phenomenal. Guests of all ages were on the dance floor all night. Radiance's quality of music and ability to really entertain the crowd were amazing. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

The evening was fantastic. Everyone commented on the high energy and quality of the group.


November 1 , 2008- Worcester Art Museum - Simsbury, CT

We can't even begin to tell you how great Radiance was at our wedding. The dance floor was packed for the entire reception and everyone has said they felt like they were at a concert.

Sal was a pleasure to work with and took the
lead on directing the reception appropriately. The entire band was so professional.

We were extremely impressed with the quality of every song they played including our first dance, which was new to them, but you would have never known. They sounded just like the original.

My parents (in their 70's) are still raving about them. Our guests will be talking about this party for years!

Thanks for everything! We look forward to working with you and Radiance again!

1) Quality Of Music: "excellent" - "All of the guests were raving about them! "

2) Choice Of Music: "excellent" - "They really read the crowd and had the whole place dancing all night! A lot of variety and very well done!"

Hi Sal,

Jeremy and I are in Belize on our honeymoon, but I want to write now that we have email access and let you know how wonderful Radiance was and how special you made our wedding. We had the time of our lives, and it made it so incredible to have such a great band playing. You really made the party that much more lively and full of spirit, which was exactly what we wanted.

Thank you also for learning and playing "You are the best thing." It was such a nice surprise, and it was really the icing on the cake to polish off a really wonderful night for us.

Thank you again.

Best,
Laura and Jeremy

August 23 , 2008- wedding - Gatherings At Brookmeadow

...WE CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH....OUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS SAID RADIANCE WAS THE BEST BAND THEY HAVE EVER SEEN AND THAT THEY MADE THE WEDDING. SPECIAL THANKS TO DANNY AND MARYANNE. I LOVED EVERYONE!!!

MARK AND KRISTEN NICHOLAS


August 2 , 2008- wedding - Hilton Woburn

...Had everyone on the dance floor from start to finish. Even my 86 year old great aunt who I have NEVER seen dancing! We had them stay late and people kept dancing, when the band broke down their equipment with a CD playing in the background people kept dancing!

...People are still talking about how great the music was. These range from my friends (late 20's to mid 30's) to my parent's friends (late 50's to late 60's). They managed to please everyone with every song they played.

...We had been at a wedding in 2005 where Radiance had played (Wilkinson/Fernquist wedding) and a 2004 wedding where Beantown had played (O'Connor/Mulvihill wedding) so Wilson Steven's was our top choice for entertainment from the very beginning. We were so pleased to have such a great band play our event to make it as great a party as those two weddings. Many of our guests have commented that they have never been to a wedding with such great music and with so many people dancing - that was our goal - to throw a great party - thanks for helping in the music department! They did a great job of getting our guests up and dancing and keeping them up and dancing!

N. Pecoraro


July 26 , 2008- wedding/ Granite Links in Quincy

I don't think there was anyone at the wedding who did not comment on how amazing Radiance was. Comments included, "I can't believe they are a WEDDING band." "If I close my eyes, I swear it is the actual artist playing the song!" "They actually look like they are having fun!" "My sister is choosing between a few bands for her wedding and I am going to tell her how great Radiance is!" I agree with all of them. They were better than I ever could have imagined and really made our wedding amazing.

Thank you!!!

Haley Solomon


July 19 , 2008- wedding/ Rhode Island Country Club

Dear Sal,

You came, you play, you leave! But, I want you to know that on one hot and humid night on July 19th,2008 you and your band made an impression on 185 people that will last a lifetime! One of the best decisions we made was to have RADIANCE play for us. Your professionalism was without peer. It was the first wedding where every person was on the dance floor. No kidding, incredible !! Your band kept the party moving all night! You made the reception the greatest. Please thank all the musicians of Radiance and know that I am passing your business cards out. The night could not of been more fun!

Best Regards,

Mark and Sandra McAndrew


July 5 , 2008- wedding/ Mountain Top Inn - Vermont

Quite frankly, one of the best bands - wedding or otherwise - that I have ever heard. Our entire wedding party of 150 was on the dance floor the entire night and people continuously raved about the music.

We attend 10 - 15 weddings/year and checked out more then 30 bands through our search for the perfect mix of fun, energetic and quality. Radiance met all of our criteria and more. We were blown away by there energy and charisma. It felt like they were one of the guests and were having as much, if not more, fun then we were! For a perfect night hire Radiance!


E. Boms


June 14 , 2008- wedding/ Four Seasons

Excellent! ...is not a big enough word. Everything was more than perfect from beginning to end. There was not a single guest whose feet were not killing them the next day from dancing non-stop all night.

We've already e-mailed frinds planning a summer of '09 wedding with our band recommendation. We have two more daughters planning weddings in the future and will try our best to have Radiance again. Thanks so much for everything


B. Shaughnessy


Sal,

People have been telling us since Saturday night that it was the best
wedding they have ever been to and we owe it in large part to you and
Radiance! I know one of our friends was going to try and book you today
for their daughter's wedding next Summer and I'll be sure to recommend
you to anyone else that asks. Please feel free to use me as a reference
either via cell or e-mail for any potential clients.

Best regards,

June 7 , 2007 - Seaport Hotel at WTC

Hi Kathy,
...wanted to let you know that RADIANCE was outstanding at Rachel and Matt's wedding saturday night...the wedding was one grand party and the band was a major factor in making it so! when i looked around the room, almost all of our guests were dancing, and we were not all young!!! in all the confusion of ending, i didn't get a chance to thank them all personally and i tried to find a way to do so on their website but couldn't, so could you please do that for me?

Thank you! Nancy


May 25 , 2008 - wedding - Seaport Hotel at WTC

Hi Sal,

Just wanted to let you know that Radiance did a great job on Sunday
night at the Kalowski / Shorett wedding. You really got the crowd up
and dancing! The pacing was really perfect -- the band got funkier as
the night went on. It was great seeing all the young people up and
partying at the end of the night. The oldsters did OK, too!
Particularly thoughtful was using the vocalist and one instrument for
quiet, live music while guests ate their entrees. It allowed talking
(which often is not possible at functions) and was a nice touch. We
think the crowd fed off of your energy and you fed off of theirs!
Many of our guests remarked about how much they liked the band, the
music...

We would be happy to serve as a reference.

Thanks again to everyone in the band!

Phyllis and Nate Kalowski


April 26 , 2008 - wedding - Zuka's Hilltop, Spencer, MA

Dear Kathy,

We wanted to send a quick note in addition to your survey to let you know how wonderful Radiance was. From my first call to Justin in the office to the very last song played at our wedding - we were impressed with the quality and professionalism of Wilson Stevens Productions and the band Radiance.

Of all the choices that we made - Radiance was by far the best! I remember being in the bridal suite prior to our entrance into the reception and getting excited because I could already hear how great the band was! Sal Difusco was not only a great emcee, but was very friendly to work with in advance of our wedding. I am still raving about how great they were every chance I get.

Guests from our wedding are still commenting on how amazing the band was, even two months later. I hope to be able to send some additional business along to Radiance, not that I think they will need it! I can honestly say that there is nothing I would change about their performance or our decision to use Wilson Stevens Productions and the band Radiance for our wedding. I will be eagerly looking for reasons to call you all again soon as we would love an encore!

We wish you all the best in your personal and professional endeavors!

Best wishes,

Jennifer & Jason Spicer

To Whom It May Concern:

Radiance performed at our wedding at the State Room on November 10, 2007 and we are writing to express how unbelievable and spectacular they were. They paced the evening perfectly and ended the night with all of our guests on the dance floor begging for more. Their selection of music was perfect and their sound, amazing. They were professional, yet laid back and fun. We would be more than happy to give a positive review to anyone who wanted to contact us.

Thank you and happy holidays,

Colleen and Chris Dibble


November 17, 2007

Dear Wilson Stevens Productions,

I wanted to write to tell you how absolutely fantastic Radiance was at our wedding on November 17th. We couldn't have asked for anything more! The band had played at our friends wedding two years ago and we remembered how wonderful they were and how much they drew the crowd to the dance floor. When it came time for us to look into bands we knew that we just had to have them. Honestly, we both remembered them being great, but we were still blown away on our wedding day!

One of the most important things for our wedding day was having a great band- one of the few things we agreed on! And we definitely got what we asked for, even more! Some of our friends are huge DJ enthusiasts and Radiance had them amazed at how fantastic a band could sound. They couldn't get over how much they sounded like the real artists. One of our Aunts even made the comment that she wondered if they would be willing to play at her daughter's wedding in New York- and she isn't even engaged yet!

Radiance played an integral past in making our wedding day perfect and everything that we had hoped it would be. We keep hearing from guests that our wedding was one of the most fun weddings they had been to in a while and we believe that the band truly made the difference and we can't thank them enough.

Thank you so much for making our day truly memorable!

Sincerely,

Jessica and Dave Barelo


October 27, 2007

Hi Sal,

What can I say? People are calling me all day long about the great music. I have never been at a wedding where everyone was up the whole night dancing like they were at my daughter's wedding. Several of the kids friends came up at the end of the night and said couldn't we get you to stay an extra hour. I told them we already had you an extra half hour and would certainly consider keeping you extra, but we had to be out of the reception at 11:00. All of the performers were so professional. I cannot think of enough superlatives to describe how happy my husband and I were with your performance. I hope Jim and I have another occasion where we can use RADIANCE again. Please tell everyone how much we loved them.

Thanks so much.

Michele Fasi


October 7, 2007 -Wequassett Inn

Sal, I wanted to get this note to you along with the attachment of a letter sent to Kathy WIlson regarding our pleasure with Radiance and you as the leader at Courtney and Ken's wedding on October 7th at the Wequassett Inn in Chatham. You and the members were so good and made the event a memorable and enjoyable time. Add to it the wonderful quality of experieince of the Wequassett, and we had a really great day. I have one more daughter to get married, and for sure, you and radiance will be the first call once the planning begins. Happy New Year,


Sincerely,
John


September 25, 2007

Dear Radiance,

Thank you so much for your phenomenal performance on our wedding day on September 1, 2007. Last year you played at my sister's wedding and we thought you were outstanding. You were so good that we thought there is no way you could top that... well, you did. You definitely outdid yourselves with your seemless performance. We could not have asked for a better music selection for my wedding. You played songs that appealed to all age groups, and you followed our "please play" and our "do not play" lists to a tee. The dance floor was packed at all times; we are so glad we extended our contract with you for an additional half hour because the guests were dancing and having a blast all night long.

Sal, you were so accommodating with all of our special requests. It means a lot to us that you and the band learned our wedding song, that you played the Italian "Tarantella", that you played "Billy Jean" upon Mike's special request (for his dance), and that you let Mike and his groomsmen sing and play with the band to "Johnny B. Goode." One band member even let a groomsmen wear his sunglasses. That was a riot!

Sal, you did a perfect job emceeing our wedding. You pronounced every one of the names of the people in our wedding party flawlessly. (And with an Italian family like mine, some of the names can be tricky.)

Since the night of the wedding, we cannot begin to tell you how many times we have heard from our guests- "This band is the band band we have ever heard!"- because we lost count. All of our family members and friends keep commenting on how great of a band you are. Everyone loved you guys! Even our function coordinator at Butternut commented to us at the end of the evening that she plans on recommending you to all of her future brides. She has never heard a band as good as yours.

The music at a wedding is what makes it so much fun. So many people have said, "This was the best wedding we have ever been to!" Thank you for making our wedding night a blast. We had the time of our lives!

We highly recommend Radiance! You guys are outstanding. We plan to recommend you to all of our friends for their future weddings. My family already plans on hiring you for my younger sister's wedding, and she's not even engaged yet!

We highly recommend WSP also! They were great to work with. We were so impressed with al of their employees. Kathy was always available to answer all of out questions in a timely and efficient manner. There were even times we called WSP and a band member from other bands other than Radiance answered the phone; these individuals never hesitated to help us with whatever we needed. Everyone was always so accommodating. This is a great organization and we are so happy to have had you be a part of our special day.

Thank You Sal! Thank You Radiance! Thank You Wilson Stevens!

Sincerely,

Beth C. Murphy

Dear Sal:

What a party!

I Just wanted to thank you and the other members of Radiance for the great entertainment provided at my daughter's wedding last Saturday. I have always maintained that it is the band what makes or breaks a wedding. Radiance certainly MADE this wedding.

Everyone in your group was highly energized and truly "into it". That energy spilled over to our guests to make for a fun-filled evening. Other than the father/daughter dance, the highlight of the evening for me was when you allowed Bethany and Tim the opportunity to "perform" Jon Bon Jovi's "Livin' on a Prayer". I felt like I was back in my younger days at a rock concert.
Thank you for letting the kids take over the microphones for that song.

Again, many thanks for a wonderful and unforgettable wedding!

Very truly yours,

Joseph F. Penza Jr.

It has been about a month since our wedding in Marion, Massachusetts and I just wanted to get back to you to let you know how much we enjoyed Radiance. You guys are talented, energetic, fun and managed to get the entire group of 250 people out on the dance floor. We had a blast and it was apparent that everybody else was enjoying themselves as well. Thanks for doing such a great job and good luck with your future performances. Please let us know if you would like us to provide a testimonial.

Cheers,
Hally and Jon Trementozzi

Hi Tim,

I worked with you this past September to book Radiance for our Sept.16, 2006 wedding in Chatham. They were EXCELLENT. Everyone has been asking about them! They were fun, energetic, so professional, so easy to work with and their music was nothing short of perfect. Sal was so nice and so great to work with. And the two lead singers were truly unbelievable. Our wedding was the most fun party I have ever been to – all thanks to Radiance J

Wedding - October 14 , 2006 at Hellenic Center in Ispswich

Dear Wilson Stevens Productions,

I would like to begin by apologizing for the delay in responding to your "performance questionnaire". Although we did not honeymoon for long after our wedding, we have both been extremely busy and have been truant in responding to several of the vendors used for our wedding on October 14, 2006. That being said, we both felt strongly about writing a personalized letter to thank you for your contribution to our wedding in conjunction with completing your survey.

To begin, both Stacey and I were extremely impressed by, and pleased with, our dealings with Wilson Stevens Productions as a management company. Your method of allowing prospective clients to attend band practice at an intimate but informal location was a revolutionary idea in our opinion. It truly made seeing all of your bands, not only Radiance, a welcoming and exciting experience. In addition, the timely and professional response to our emails and phone calls was highly appreciated, especially as the date of the event approached. We were increasingly overwhelmed by the entire planning process, and you were able to quickly put to rest any apprehensions or concerns we had about the facilitation of the event during that stressful time. For that we thank you.

For Radiance's part in making our wedding the most unbelievable day for not only Stacey and I, but also for our guests, it is difficult to find the words to describe how fantastic they were both personally and as performers. The speaker arrangement for our outdoor ceremony was wonderful. We had an acoustic singer who sounded beautiful thanks in large part to your efforts, and our guests were highly impressed that they could hear the entire ceremony clearly. More importantly, however, the band itself was exceptional. they were by far the best live band of their ilk I have ever seen perform. The energy they brought with them to the stage was matched only by their obvious enjoyment of performing for a crowd. From start to finish, inclusive of announcing our bridal party and managing the timing of the music for the entire event, the whole of Radiance were consummate professionals. We simply cannot say enough great things about the band and can not begin to thank them for making our wedding the perfect event. Both Stacey and I agree that our favorite part of the evening was the band, and we could not be happier now that we chose Radiance. Although, we do not wish to play favorites as we truly loved everyone who performed, we would like to extend a special thank you to Sal DiFusco for all of his help in preparing for the event, and for getting a great effort from Radiance at the wedding. The band truly made the difference for Stacey, me, and our guests. One guest told me the week following the wedding that they had never seen so many people have such an amazing time. A huge part of the "amazing time" was Radiance and their amazing performance, and for that we are eternally grateful.

Sincerely,
Stacey & Brian

Wedding - September16 , 2006 at Oyster Pond - Chatham

Dear Kathy,

On September 16th Emily, our daughter, and Matt were married at our home overlooking Oyster Pond in Chatham. The weather was perfect, the setting outstanding. The sit down dinner for 250 was handled by the staff.

Throughout this special event "Radiance" was a major presence. They provided the right touch for the ceremony, were pleasant to listen to during dinner and rockin' from then on!

The entire group was talented, friendly and so much fun. Our family and friends had a great night and 'Radiance' provided outstanding entertainment. We give them our highest recommendation.

Thank you,

David and Gail
