Orpheus and Aphrodite Music and Photography

This band is the one! There is no need to search for another band! I am a perfectionist and like all brides wanted the big perfect wedding and reception. So we searched for months (and I do mean months) and finally came across Atlanta Band of Gold. I really liked everything about them before we even met them. The only thing I did not like about my experience was the two hour drive to their studio to listen to them during their open house. But I am SOOOO glad we drove up because they were GREAT!! I knew after the first 30 seconds of listening to them that they were our band. I was excited all the way home which made the two hour drive back go by much faster! We had a wedding reception with 160 people with people in all age groups. We had so many "experienced" wedding goers tell us this was the best band they had ever heard. We LOVE this band and will definitely recommend them to anyone! If we ever need a band for anything we will call BOG!

WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!! I can't say enough good things about Orpheus/Band of Gold! Everyone had a wonderful time at our wedding! Kris is so accomodating and responsive! He did a few special things for my groom which made the night that much better! Thank you for such a wonderful and fun reception! I will definitely be recommending!!!! THANK YOU KRIS!

This guy was fantastic. He never missed a beat (no pun intended). We requested out of the ordinary songs (school fight song, etc.) and he did not let us down. Fantastic and super nice guy!

They did a wonderful job at our wedding. The music was perfect! I think what's even more great about they is his flexibility and professionalism. We asked they to play several new songs that weren't on his list and he incorporated them beautifully into our ceremony. This included incorporating a fun little number for our officiant's (who was also our friend) entrance. they even stayed a bit longer to play more songs during the cocktail hour. They made a magical day just perfect. Very professional, quick to respond, and easy to work with.

Kris and the Band of Gold did a fantastic job at our daughter's wedding reception. They were friendly, professional and really engaged the crowd. They were great to work with from the very beginning of the planning process and kept in contact with us over the months to make sure they had our needs on their radar. We thought the evening was perfect and we extend our many thanks for their wonderful musical part in making our wedding experience truly wonderful!

There is no need to search for another band to play at your wedding. These people were fantastic. We had a wedding reception with 150 people that started at 8:30 pm and went to 1:00am. Kris and the band kept everything hopping: The music was varied and perfect; the lead singer was fantastic; Kris was the ultimate professional. EVERY single guest spoke to me about how great they were - heck we never had a dead spot on the dance floor and probably 95% of the guests stayed till closing. Even the photographer and event planner at the hotel told me how perfect these guys were. And at breaks they interacted with the party!And, besides adding a new song to their playlist for my daughter's 1st dance with her husband, they, as a surprise for me, added a Zepplin tune just because I mentioned how that would be MY prefernce for the reception.Price; Professionalism; Pride in their work and Peace of mind for me - the 4 P's for a wedding/party band!

This band is the best band, We were so happy with everything they did, the music was great, the band was so freindly they were everything they said they would be and even better. I hired the band over the internet and was real worried about that, but they were better then I thought they would be. They made our day very special. Thank you and all of your band for a wonderful day and you really kept the dance floor full. If I ever need a band for anything I will call you .

Atlanta Band of Gold was amazing. Kris was so easy to work with and I couldn't have asked for it to have gone any better than it did. They played great songs for all ages. Our guest are still talking about what a great band months later. Thanks guys for such a great reception!!

We loved everything about these guys!! They made getting ready for the reception easy by sending us lists of songs to choose from. Any song we wanted that they did not know how to play the would play during the breaks when Kris was being a DJ. Everyone loved them and people I have never seen dance before where up on the dance floor shaking it. I would love to go to another party where they were playing!

These two are AMAZING!!! I can't say enough positive things about these them.Terrilyn was excellent with people. She is so creative and captured every aspect of the day. I am so pleased with how our pictures turned out. I would recommend her to ANYONE!!Kris was our DJ. He did a wonderful job getting people out on the dance floor by even joining in. He had a wide range of available songs. He was also very flexible in playing and not playing what I wanted. I would recommend him to ANYONE!!!

Where do I start? BOG was the best wedding band EVER! My wife and I have been too many weddings so we knew what the competition looked like. From the first time we met BOG we knew they were going to play our wedding. The fact that they could play any style of music and really loved performing was what caught our attention. We actually used all of the musical services they offer. We used the flute and keyboard combo for the ceremony, which turned out beautifully. Then BOG took over with the Band/DJ combo. The DJ was on for the introductions and anytime the band took a break. The funniest thing about our wedding is at one point my wife and I snuck away for a private breather from everyone and when we came back we saw all the seating was empty, it was toward the end of the wedding, and we were sad because we thought people had left. Little did we know that when we looked up we would see our entire family and friends grooving on the dance floor. I am pretty sure the dance floor was full for the entire party. At the end of the night we really were taken back by how good BOG was and were so happy that we choose them to share our special day. They really worked hard on playing the things that we liked and they really felt the crowd. I think the band might have had just as much fun as we did, and that tells me they not only love what they do but they really care about everyone having a great time. Don't lose out on choosing Band of Gold for your event!

Atlanta Band of Gold was fantastic! They were professional, fun, and very talented. They performed songs that we requested, one of which wasn't a well known song, even though they weren't on the Band's playlist. Several people told us that they had enjoyed our reception more than most receptions they had attended. We highly recommend Atlanta Band of Gold. You won't be disappointed!

There is no way I could say enough positive things about Terrilyn at Orpheus & Aphrodite. To begin with, she helped us "adjust" our contract to better suit the kind of package we were looking for. Then on the day of, she was just such an amazing person to work with. Hair and makeup ran late, so consequently we were late too, but she took it all in stride and just snapped away. Our whole day was kind of a "go with the flow" type schedule, and she really made the best of it and tried to get us through all of the required pictures to get us back to the party. She was really just such a pleasure to work with, and seemed to have such a good time that it didn't seem like to work to her or to us!I can't wait to see the pictures. I've seen so much of her work and it's really great--it's artistic but not "out there", and everything I've seen is so beautiful.

I loved that I hired a band over a DJ. It was the best thing I did for my wedding! For price they offer they were amazing. My guests are still talking about what a GREAT time they had at my reception. I would recommend the Band of Gold to any of my friends. Please hire them you wont be disappointed!!!

Terri was fantastic! I hired her only two weeks before the wedding, gave her none of the information she asked for, and didn't have a chance to meet her until the wedding day but she still managed to capture all of the important family shots as well as pictures of most of our guests at the reception. She has a great personality and was very easy to work with. I highly recommend her.

Absolutely amazing in both talent and professionalism! Easy to work with, fun, excellent couple to have at your wedding! Service is seen but not noticed... meaning always there but not in the way, holding things up, or causing a scene. Wonderful wonderful results! Wouldn't trade them for anyone in the world, if it is possible book them ASAP you won't regret it one bit.

Could NOT have been better!!!!! Kris and Terrilyn were truly fabulous! Both were very quick to respond to e-mail before the wedding, and were absolutely wonderful at the wedding. Terrilyn completely put me at ease while we took pictures and my family adored her--she requests a family tree ahead of time so by the day of the wedding, she knows everyone's name! She was calling out everyone's name and kept everything organized and on time. Kris did a fabulous job DJing. Several people commented on how great the music was and how impressed they were with him! We seriously could not have been happier with them personally and professionally. Not to mention, our pictures turned out BEAUTIFULLY.

The best DJ/Photography duo. Made my day truly special. Amazing service and very caring people. I would recommend to all my friends

Terry is absolutely wonderful to work with--she keeps everything so upbeat and everyone has such a great experience while she shoots the photos. Her pictures are amazing. I have received so many great comments about both our engagement and wedding photos. The quality and design of her work are above the rest!

Terrilyn was amazing. My pictures were all beautiful. She had me give her a list of all the shots I wanted & didn't want and she made sure she took them all. Her albums are beautiful as well. She is very professional and so nice. She knew everyone's name by the day of the wedding & knew exactly who to get in every picture! I had tons of pictures to choose from after the wedding & had a hard time picking because they were all great. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.
