"I wanted to personally thank you for such an amazing performance Saturday night. A wonderful time was had by all and for
such a great cause. I wanted you to know that with your simple donation of your band for the Cha Cha silent auction 2011, This
Side UP raised almost $10,000 for Dayton Children's! Between the purchase of the band during the silent auction, the discounted
rate that you gave to us, as well as the donations that we received Saturday night, This Side Up has made a huge difference in
the lives of many children. THANK YOU!!! We look forward to hearing you at Cha Cha May 11, 2013,!! Thank you again for all
that you have done for Dayton Children's!"-Jennifer Almoney, Children's Hospital Women's Board Photos from this event |

from the beginning and your playing the other night was just outstanding. Everyone was raving about 'how great the band was!'
It was a pleasure to work with you--I appreciate your professionalism and enthusiasm! Thanks again.P.S. You were right about the hats!" -Barbara Gorman, mother of the bride Photos from this event |
"Hi guys! I just wanted to comment on how great you were on the Main Stage. The crowd was loving you! You had a big
group dancing down there like I've not really seen before at past Urban Nights. We received tons of great comments and just
wanted to pass that along. Thanks for a great evening!"-Courtney Deutsch, Special Events Manager for Downtown Dayton Partnership Photos from this event |
"Brock and I cannot thank you enough for everything you did to make our wedding such an enjoyable event last night!
Our guests really, really enjoyed themselves and could not stop talking about the band! All of my relatives called today
to say that was the best time they have ever had at a wedding! You did such an amazing job and we had a blast! None of
the guests wanted to leave-they wanted you to keep playing! Even the bartenders were dancing and singing along! I must
say that the hats and boas were a great effect as well! I just cannot say enough positive things, so thank you for everything!"-Carissa Smith nee Baker Photos from this event |
"First of all I would like to say what an amazing job all of you did at Erin and Rob's Wedding on Saturday night. The word
that comes to mind is PERFECT. Everyone was coming up to Mike and I telling us how much they loved the band. The reception was
a blast and I really don't know how it could have been any more fun. I must say it was one of the best wedding receptions I have
ever been to (if I say so myself). I know everyone who attended will be talking about it for years to come. Thank you all
soooooooooooo much. Keep on on doing what you you do, because you are such a class act and I mean that from the bottom of my heart.
Good Luck and Best Wishes Always! P.S. Kim could you please let me know what you need me to do to get copies of the pictures you
took at the reception. I would love to have a copy of them."-Carol Janson, mother of the bride And yes Carol, we're happy to provide full-scale photos for a nominal fee Photos from this event |
"THANK YOU so much for being such a wonderful part of our wedding! I truly can not even begin to express how happy we
were with our choice in a band for our wedding. Seriously - you all were MORE than amazing! Just so you know - we had people
asking about you all non-stop. We heard from sooooo many people that you all were the BEST band they have ever heard at a
wedding (and this group has been to A LOT of VERY amazing weddings). I can say that everyone was so impressed with you all.
We will most definitely be highly reccommending you all to ANYONE that we come across that is looking for a band. From the
set list, to the variety of music played, to how you all did such an amazing job keeping the crowd going the ENTIRE night, we
could not have asked for anything better! P.S. The hats were a TOTAL hit! I'm so glad that we didn't do away with them.
What a fun touch! Keep doing what you're doing! I am so sad it's over - we want to do it all over again! Thank you for
adding so much to our special day."-Sally & Charlie Wolfe, July newlyweds Photos from this event |
"Just wanted to let you know that "This Side Up" did a fabulous job at my daughter's wedding last weekend. They were perfect.
They had everybody up and dancing the entire evening....great music! From the minute they started playing, people did not leave
the dance floor. I have never been at a wedding like that before. Since we were a bit late starting (had surprise fireworks) they
played straight through without a break. We really appreciated that. We even talked them in to playing a bit longer. Nobody
wanted the party to end!"-Doret Tookey, mother of the bride Photos from this event |
"Thank you so much! The band was incredible! We received dozens of compliments throughout the night (and after) about
how great you all looked and sounded! From the looks of your website, it doesn't look like you're hurting for gigs, but you still might
get some extra business from some of our reception guests. Melissa and I are still in awe. I researched dozens of bands for weeks before
finally finding and selecting you. We could not have made a better choice! Your energy was contagious. We hope you had as much fun as
we did!"-Damian Synadinos, April newlywed And yes, we absolutely had as much fun as you did! Photos from this event |
"We can't thank you enough for the amazing job you did at our wedding reception. Almost 2 months
later and people are still talking about how great you guys were and how much fun the reception (and hats)
were! Thank you so much and thank you for making our night so special"-Kaitlyn and Ryan Ytterberg, September newlyweds Photos from this event |
"First of all, your performance last Friday night at the Jazz Party was AWESOME. Everyone had a great time...
my only regret was that you did not get to play longer. The fun was over way too soon. Thank you, thank you,
thank you for all you did to make our evening special. I was hoping you could "pencil in" our date on your
schedule for next year. I saw on your website that your schedule is filling up so I at least want to give you a
heads up because I have a feeling we will want to have you entertain again."-Margaret Gottschlich, CSSMV Jazz Party Coordinator Photos from this event |
"I want to thank the band for the wonderful performance at Nicole & Jason's wedding last weekend. So many people told us what
a great time they had and ALL of them mentioned how great the band was. We look forward to hearing you again soon. Your
organization of the event and the flow was impeccable."-Ron Muzechuk, Father of the bride Photos from this event |
"You guys were fabulous. I have heard rave reviews and have already had two calls asking for your contact
info. Yes! We want you back."-Diane Farrell, Vice President, Boonshoft Museum External Relations Photos from this event |
"We want to thank the entire band for such a great live performance! We all had such a wonderful time and
a lot of the guests were coming up to me commenting on how great the band was! Robert and I will always have
such fond memories of our wedding day! Thank you so much again!"-Jaime & Ben Woods, June newlyweds Photos from this event |
"I have had more compliments than you would ever believe about you all playing at our reception. You all
were amazing! What a great time that was! Thanks so much everybody!"-Zac & Brandy Bates, May newlyweds Photos from this event |
"The reception was amazing. Everyone seemed to be having a fantastic time. The band was one of the best cover
bands I have ever heard...honestly. I wish they were local [New York] so I could recommend them to every couple
I meet with! If you can bribe them to travel here, they are worth it! They even come with their own box of crazy
hats that they let everyone wear. It was a big hit."-Alicia Shields, visiting wedding photographer from New York, taken from her blog. Photos from this event |
"Todd and I so appreciate you playing at our wedding reception. You were fantastic and made the event a
huge, fun success. We've given your card to several people and have sung your praises (hopefully resulting
in some more gigs). On the return flight from our honeymoon in the Dominican Republic, Todd asked me if I
would rather take another trip for a big anniversary or have a party with the band. I immediately responded
party with the band!"-Todd & Katie Poeppelmeir, February newlyweds Photos from this event |
"Thank you very much for playing at our wedding reception. You created the perfect atmosphere and everybody
could not have been more pleased. We look forward to hearing you play in the future!"-Karen & Andy Horvath, December newlyweds Photos from this event |
"We found This Side Up at the last minute, when our other music plans for the wedding fell through, and now
we're so glad that things turned out the way they did! This Side Up was extremely professional, helpful, and,
most important of all, a fantastic band! People loved the music at the reception, dancing until the very end.
Many of them told me after the fact that it was the best wedding music they had ever heard. Most special for me
was the way that the band accommodated my request to sing a song ("The Way I Am") with them for my new husband.
This Side Up had not performed it before, but they learned the song in a week's time just for our wedding. We
rehearsed only twice before the ceremony began, and it went flawlessly in the end! I could not have been happier.
Everyone loved it. Thanks for everything!"-Jen Morales Glassman, October bride Photos from this event |
"We hired This Side Up for our University of Dayton Reunion Weekend event. We had UD alumni ranging in age
from the 5th year reunion class, all the way to the 50th, registered to attend the event - so we needed a band
that would appeal to all ages. This Side Up certainly met our needs. Their wide range of music was perfect for
our group and they had the majority of our 1500 attendees up and dancing well before the last set even began. In
addition, working with the band prior to the event was nothing short of first-class. They were very professional
in all aspects, which was a pleasant and welcomed surprise. They even took the time to learn a new song for us:
Sweet Caroline (a UD favorite)! I heard nothing but good comments from our alumni regarding the band. In fact,
in a post-event survey regarding the Porch Party, one comment was consistently written by our alumns: "the band was
great!"-Courtney Deutsch '98, Reunion Weekend Coordinator, University of Dayton Photos from this event |
"Having This Side Up as part of our wedding was the best decision we made. [Kim's] coordination of
keeping everything together the day of the wedding was amazing. Taking dance lessons with Halli was
not only helpful, but fun! This Side Up totally made our reception what it was. We have had numerous
people tell us that our reception was one of the best they have been to, and I give This Side Up the
credit for that. They performed amazingly, kept the party going, and were so accommodating."-Gretchen Swann, nee Wildauer Photos from this event |
"What a great time we all had at Sarah and Sean's wedding, May 10th! This Side Up made the
celebration even more fun than we could have imagined. Everyone loved the band and danced all night
- we would recommend them to play at your celebration - great music, great band members, great fun!
Thanks!!!! "-Jeff and Kathy Bachey, parents of the bride "Everyone was GREAT! We had so much fun and would not have changed a thing! Thanks to everyone for everything you did, our wedding would not have been the same without you!" -Sarah and Sean Ginter, bride and groom Photos from this event |
"I've heard nothing but great things from the guests and staff about you guys. GREAT JOB and
thank you for a great performance. Although we don't have bands at this location very often I will
be sure to keep you guys in mind when we do in the future as well as spread the word on how good
the performance was."-Mark Krumm, General Manager Fricker's Huber Heights Photos from this event |
"The band was a BIG hit! Thanks to all of you for a fabulous time - you made our wedding the
happiest and most fun event for all."-Mary Burns, nee Gagnet "I want to tell you how thoroughly enjoyable your music was at the reception. We think you are one of the best groups we have ever heard!" -Jan Millhouse, wedding reception guest Photos from this event |
"I want to thank This Side Up for the wonderful job you did at the Alter Father/Daughter dance.
The feedback we received from both the fathers and daughters was overwhelming. They loved the music,
the variety and the fact that you guys were not only a singing group but a performing group as well.
The hats were such a wonderful idea! I'd love to see if you all would be willing to come back next
year and play for us again."-Sharon Mosconi, AHS Cheer Program Director Photos from this event |
"We have had so many wonderful comments about the event, specifically about your band! What a fantastic time!
Please let the band know we LOVED you!!!"-Monica Schultz, Senior Communications, CareSource Management Group Photos from this event |
"You were absolutely a total hit! We received so many great comments. Thank you
so much."-Diane (Funke) Farrell, External Relations Director, Boonshoft Museum of Discovery Photos from this event |
"I heard many reviews from Alter volunteers, as well as Fest patrons, that just
loved your style of music and performance. You definitely were a draw for us."-Mark Fussnecker, Entertainment Chair, Alter Fest Planning Committee "It was amazing how many comments I heard about how well Halli performed Carrie Underwood's 'Before He Cheats'! I can't express the joy I get from hearing you guys perform!" -Bill Hausmann, Alter Fest Planning Committee Photos from this event |
