HAYLEY + GEOFF | QUEENSTOWN WEDDING

Coachella is the band you want to play at your wedding! Our wedding is still talked about, 4 years on, because everyone was up dancing all night and having the best time.

Coachella read the crowd and adjust song choice accordingly, resulting in an evening of a very full dance floor! The vocals (Including an acoustic set) were amazing and the full band in the evening was faultless. Would recommend to anyone and everyone looking for a reception that no one will ever forget!

ELIZA + JORDAN | QUEENSTOWN WEDDING

If you're looking for an acoustic singer Matt is your guy! My husband and I booked in Matt for our wedding in Queenstown. I always knew what song I wanted to walk down the aisle to but organising our wedding from overseas, I was so nervous about booking in a vendor that I hadn't seen in person. However, as soon as i reached out to Matt, he instilled so much confidence and was a pleasure to chat to. He sent through a demo of the song and worked with me to ensure the timings of the song worked perfectly.

I have zero regrets, just that we were so busy on the day that we didn't get to meet to thank Matt in person! A big thank you, we had multiple guests as for your details the next day.

Couldn't recomend Matt and Coachella enough.

They managed all the music on our wedding from me walking down the aisle, to our first dance and a killer party at the end of the night. They had everyone on the dance floor!

JESS + MATT | TAUPO WEDDING

Matt and I could never put into words how much Coachella's support over the last year to 18 months has meant. Three date changes, a lockdown, trying to get out of fort Auckland for us, a pretty insane mountain bike accident… they were there for it all and we felt like nothing was ever an issue and they were on our side the whole time!

Our guests have all commented that they think the Coachella guys were quite possibly one of the best bands they have ever heard live.

I'm pretty sure I never left the dancefloor for a solid two hours!! I didn’t think there was such a thing as the wedding come down but there definitely is, so much so we are already planning when we can have our next party that the guys can play at!

Stop looking and just book these guys for your wedding or any other big party celebration. Matt and the band are proper musicians who absolutely made our wedding. From Matt's beautiful solo performance during the ceremony to the incredible band vibes at the reception, the guys were incredible.

The music in the evening set such an awesome tone for everyone to let rip and party. Soooo many great tunes. We can't thank Coachella enough.

BRE + CLARKE | WHAKATANE WEDDING

WOW! Matt & Crew are undoubtedly the best decision I could have made when it came to our wedding. You all should be so dang proud of yourselves, because heck you guys can throw one EPIC performance. I cannot recommend y’all enough.

Our rustic, country, barn wedding was complete with Coachella. Matt was incredibly easy to communicate with, he was super patient with me and listened to all of my needs and wants and he blew my expectations through the roof. I cannot wait to see you all again sometime in the future. EPIC!!!

NICOLA + DAN | AUCKLAND WEDDING

Matt and Coachella were the highlight of our wedding! Their unique performance of some absolute party starters have been talked about for days amongst our guests. They were super easy to deal with, professional, and accommodating, even learning a song we requested for our first dance.

Matt's solo performance throughout the afternoon was perfect too. Can't wait for another excuse for a party and to have Coachella play again.

ALANA + DAVID | COROMANDEL WEDDING

We had Matt and Coachella play our wedding on the Coromandel. Everything was spot on from Matt’s solo acoustic set during canapés, then the full band after dinner.

They’re absolute professionals- easy communication and punctual, judge their crowd perfectly, hit every note, and had great energy that got the whole crowd dancing. We were more than happy and would use them again in a heartbeat.

SCOTT RICE | QUANTUM EVENTS

I have contracted Matt Stone (and his band Coachella) on a number of occasions over the years. I have been very impressed with Matt's total professionalism and musical talent.

Whether it be an outdoor sporting event of ours, an awards function or even my own wedding I have been thoroughly impressed. I couldn't recommend Matt & Coachella more highly and continue to use his services today.

JENNI + NIGEL | WAIHEKE WEDDING

Absolutely awesome band who made our wedding reception. We had our wedding in an isolated part of waiheke island. Outstanding communication and professionalism by Matt throughout the planning phase. Very reasonably priced and everything was taken care of. I have never seen a dance floor so prolific and we were so stoked that the band at our wedding was able to create this atmosphere!! We picked Coachella because of their mix of both new hits and old-time bangers.

The band was able to read the crowd and mix up the songs to suit, so that everyone was keen to return to the floor as soon as the set started up again. Could not recommend Coachella enough. Thanks for for an awesome night!!

EMILY + PETE | COROMANDEL WEDDING

If there was an option for 10 stars out of 5 option these guys would get that review! We recently had Coachella play at our wedding in the Coromandel in Feb 2020. From the get-go Matt Stone (lead of the band) was an absolute legend to work with - none of my many requests were too much for him and he made everything to do with organising the music and sound at our wedding totally unstressful and seamless.

Planning a wedding from overseas is never easy so working with someone as organised and great at communication as Matt was amazing. The band were totally incredible making our wedding evening everything we could dream of plus so much more. All our guests are still raving about how awesome 'the band' were, they read the crowd perfectly and we had a full dance floor right through to when the wedding finished up.

I can't recommend Coachella enough, we would have them again at an event in a heartbeat!

LIZ + JASON | AUCKLAND WEDDING

Wow Coachella was so incredible and everyone keeps asking us where the band was from because they did such a great job. Nobody wanted them to leave and did so well with every song they played! Pretty sure we had every guest dancing.

Really can’t thank them enough for creating such a great atmosphere for the best day ever! We will definitely be recommending them to anyone that needs a band no matter what the event!

COURTNEY + CIARAN | QUEENSTOWN WEDDING

I had Coachella sing at my wedding in Queenstown in January 2020. I had first made contact with Matt about a year before the event and requested all of my songs. Matt was prompt at returning emails and answering my many questions.

Matt recorded various versions of the songs I requested and emailed them to me for my approval- I also requested a slight lyric changes in my first dance song which they did effortlessly. Organising the music for my wedding with Coachella was easy and carefree.

On the wedding day: The group started before the ceremony (2:30ish) and played right up until our first dance, at about 7ish. During their short breaks they had their playlist on so that there was never a time without music.

Coachella was so professional and polite I just wish I had the group stay for the entire evening. All of my family and friends raved about the group and I just could not recommend them highly enough!

HARRY KIRKWOOD | DENTONS KENSINGTON SWAN

Coachella performed at our end of year function in 2019, and were absolutely fantastic. The band are really talented performers, and played a great range of tunes that had everyone up and dancing the whole night. They were very easy to deal with and flexible around set up and finish times (we had to ask them to extend their set over an hour because everyone was loving it so much!).

Anyone that is looking for a great band for their function need look no further, we couldn’t recommend these guys enough.
