Dear Doug,
Every single person has raved about Rembrandt. No one can believe that we hired you without seeing the band in person. Cindy recommended you and after listening to your sample, we just had a good feeling... and you absolutely blew us away!

In addition to the incredible music, you were such a pleasure to work with! You were attentive and returned emails and phone calls immediately. You have no idea how rare that was while wedding planning, so thank you! You were organized and helpful throughout the entire process so I never had to worry.

Please thank the band members for bringing their incredible talent and for making our wedding reception unforgettable!

All the Best,

Ashley and Eric (Bride & Groom)

Dear Doug,

We are writing to let you know just how pleased we are that we were able to have you provide the entertainment for our daughter’s wedding! She had heard your band before and raved about how great you were! I have to say that everything about our experience of you and your band, from the planning process through to your execution at the event exceeded our expectations. You went above and beyond what could have been your call of duty to help us enable a special sing along and the quality and artistry of your band was truly exceptional! We received many compliments regarding the exceptional quality of your band during the event, and in some cases, repeatedly, as your band played different genres throughout the night. We couldn’t be more pleased with what you provided and would recommend you to anyone who is looking for a great band experience.

Sincerely,
Fred and Yael Rosenbloom

I first saw Rembrandt play at a friend’s wedding in 2004. The band was half the size it is now but they were just as good – so good in fact that I mentally filed the experience away and thought to myself "one day, if I ever get married, I’m going to have them play at my wedding."


Well, that one day came last year – in July 2014. We hired the band and they were BRILLIANT!! The best decision we made. Our guests had such a good time they were thanking us for inviting them to the wedding. And one year on our friends and family are still talking about the "amazing band at Tammie and Anant’s wedding."

Doug and the rest of the band are very professional and very easy to work with – a pleasure in fact.

I think they are fantastic and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a live band.

If I have my way they will be playing at my 40th birthday party!!!

Thanks again to Doug and the band for making our wedding party a night we will always remember!!

Rice/Rottman Wedding

Agoura Hills, CA

We began planning our wedding celebration four months before our big day of July 12, 2014. We envisioned a joyous occasion that placed particular emphasis on the word "celebration." We hoped to create a contrast of rustic elegance with sophistication and class displayed through impressive sights and sounds of a top rate band. We knew this meant enlisting the services of an experienced emcee, outstanding musicians and singers, and a cohesive group of professionals who could truly deliver. This perfectly describes our choice for the evening’s entertainment, Rembrandt of Fine Artists Entertainment.
 
We contacted Doug Waitman, who served as band booker, manager, emcee, keyboardist, and our point person. He was quick and thorough with his responses, exceptionally attentive to detail, considerate of our needs and very reassuring that they knew what they were doing. Cut to four months later the night of our wedding; he was not kidding! Our dance floor was - and we are not exaggerating -completely filled with people dancing from the moment right after our first dance all they way to when the venue kicked us out, with the exception of toasts and dinner service, all seamlessly announced and managed by Doug and his band’s direction.
 
Three months later we still hear guests say, "Where did you find that band?" and "That band was the best wedding band I’ve ever seen!" They looked sharp, acted professionally and played tight with true improvisational sound. Their preparedness, ability to perfectly perform various ranges of musical genre and their personnel’s multi-talented skills in instrumentation and vocal harmonizing is what really set them apart. Most of all they were fully aware of our setting, our preferences and in expertly handling much more than just the "set list."
Looking back, we couldn’t be happier with our decision in working with Rembrandt.
 
It was Rembrandt above all, which exceeded our ambitious, lofty expectations.
We recommend them without reservation and encourage anyone looking for a professional band to check them out…immediately!

"Rembrandt" was one of the highlights of our wedding. Our guests were very impressed and could not stop talking about the band. The band was able to play a variety of songs - true to the original artists. You guys sound so great that guests could not believe it was NOT the real artist. Thanks for learning our first dance song which was in Spanish. The "Evolution of Rap" was awesome and my only regret is that I wish someone had caught that composition on video. Without a doubt, we definitely would use Rembrandt again!

Dragicevich/Shuler Wedding

Doug,



The very first thing we did when our daughter announced her engagement was to call you. You see, we already experienced two weddings and a debutante ball with Rembrandt and knew that the single most important vendor, ahead of even the venue, was the music and the performers. Our daughter Julie is 27 years old and has been to many weddings. She also is a professional dancer and loves music. She wanted a group that could captivate and audience ranging from their 20's to grandparents in their 80's. It worked: whereas people, especially the older ones, tend to leave the reception after the cake cutting, our 160 plus group stayed to the last dance. You worked with us to incorporate our family's toasts and tributes and tastes in music into your timeline while keeping everyone on the floor all night long. Your performers became part of the party. To say that everyone had a great time is an understatement. Thank you for making our daughter's wedding all that we hoped for and more.

Again, thank you and our best to you,

Doug & The Rembrandts Team,
This email is long overdue! We wanted to write you all to say THANK
YOU for everything you did for our wedding night. You fulfilled our
dream of having the perfect band at our wedding. The feedback from our
guests has been absolutely incredible. Family and friends have told us
that the band made the party. Doug not only were you a pleasure to
work with, but your team was professional and pleasurable as well. As
we working on booking vendors for our wedding, you were our first and
very early "booking" and we don't regret our decision for one moment.
Thank you for helping make our wedding night an unforgettable one. You
really are a hidden gem! I have three siblings - we will definitely be
seeing you again!

Hi Doug,


I want to thank you and the band for participating in Courtney and Garrett's wedding. You were absolutely outstanding! I can't tell you the number of notes, calls, and emails I have received with compliments for the band's excellent musicianship and your leadership. Everyone was blown away by the music and dancing and loved the song selection.
On a personal note, I thank you also for how graciously you accommodated my request to sing. It was lots of fun and Courtney was really happy.
So again, thank you for being a part of our wedding. You added much to an evening we will always remember. I will recommend Rembrandt at every opportunity.

Dear Doug,



Upon coming down from cloud nine, an email to convey my deepest thanks
to you and Rembrandt for helping create an absolutely magical and
unforgettable wedding reception for me and Phelps, our families and
guests. We are still all smiles here reliving by retelling, pictures,
and a few videos that were captured. Phelps and I couldn't have been
more thrilled with the bands rendition of Ain't No Song for our first
dance. In The Mood and Signed Sealed Delivered were electric as were
all the songs played that evening. It was a seamless evening of
wonderful hits. Thank you so much for your leadership that evening and
guidance in the planning process. It was a highlight of the wedding
planning process working with you.
Please express our sincere appreciation to your vocalists and band for
the talent, energy, and soul they brought to the night. It was a
celebration none of us will forget. Thank you sincerely as well for
your support and soulful accompaniment for my song to Phelps. I would
love to hear the recording you mentioned if still possible. It seems
to have had its intended effect on Phelps and was well received by our
guests for which I am incredibly grateful. Thank you again for making
it all possible.

Dear Doug:

I want to start off by saying how professional the whole process was from start to finish. You were very responsive to any questions I had and your play list was very extensive.

The night of the event, you and your band were on time, dressed appropriately and very friendly. Once you started playing, the room came alive with energy. More than once I was told, "I kept forgetting the music wasn’t from a CD". The talent and professionalism was superb. The singers’ energy level was never ending, and the way they engaged the crowd was masterful. I loved it when they got off the stage and sang amongst the guests.

Thank you again for helping making our evening one to remember and we look forward to working with you again in the future.
Sincerely,
Karen Carter

National Charity League Debutante Ball
Conejo Valley Chapter
Four Seasons Hotel
Westlake Village, CA
350 Guests


 

Rembrandt performed at our National Charity League Ball, honoring our Debutantes, at the Four Seasons Hotel in November 2013, and was a huge hit! This important event would not have been nearly as successful or memorable without them. Rembrandt's wonderful music energized the ballroom and the guests. Their depth and talent enabled them to transition seamlessly and flawlessly from genre to genre -- from an elegant waltz, to current dance music, to 80s hits, to golden oldies, and more! The best evidence of what an excellent job they did was that everybody was up dancing and having fun all night! During and after the Ball, we received many highly positive comments about Rembrandt, and we continue to hear that "the music made the night." They are very professional and were a pleasure to work with. We give Rembrandt our highest recommendation.

Doug-



We cannot say enough about Rembrandt! From our first email until the last song was played, they were the epitome of professionalism, quality and class. Doug was a wonderful band leader and their song choices were spot on helping our reception flow smoothly. They respected our every request and delivered beyond our exceptions. Our guests loved Rembrandt just as much as we did! The dance floor was packed the entire night. We even had guests come up to us and say good bye and then we'd spot them back on the dance floor! As long as Rembrandt was playing, no one wanted to leave! They truly made our reception everything we wanted and more. They were amazing!

They made our wedding reception memorable for us and our guests and I would use them over and over again for all future events."

Hi Doug,



Rembrandt was the highlight of our wedding celebration. Our guests did not get off the dance floor...including family members who we have never seen dance for a second in their life! Our guests are still raving about the band, 6 months later. When we got engaged we knew right away that we wanted to have Rembrandt as our wedding band, and we made sure to schedule our wedding day when we knew the band was available. The musicians are top notch, the best of the best, and they truly make the wedding a fun and happy atmosphere for everyone in attendance. We are already looking for any and every event in our future that we can hire Rembrandt for. My sister recently got engaged and the first thing we said was "another excuse to hire Rembrandt!"

Rembrandt was the highlight of our party. We could not have asked for a better performance. The 2 main compliments we received were #1: the band and #2 the food. Everyone, and I mean everyone, asked where and how we found the Rembrandt Band. A handful of friends have asked us how to contact and reserve the Rembrandt band for their weddings. Thanks again for helping make our day so special and memorable! We will certainly be using Rembrandt again in the future for any occasion having live music entertainment!

Considering I had never heard you in person before Jens wedding, I didn't really know what to expect and boy was I relieved and blown away! Just last night I saw someone who attended the wedding seven months ago and the first comment they said to me was "that band was so fantastic at Jens wedding!" You just knew exactly how to get the crowd moving...everyone was on the dance floor having the greatest time..the sound was superb and you guys just rocked it for everyone! Cant wait to make another party with Rembrandt..can't wait to attend another party with Rembrandt! Doug, you were such a pleasure to work with, so acomodating on all levels and we so appreciated your patience with us!



All the best to you,
