“I cannot say enough about my experiences with Young Hearts. They have quickly become one of my go-to bands for my 30A clients as they are incredibly talented (i mean like WOW!) but also SO great to work with! They are always responsive, professional, they are so willing to do whatever it takes to make the day go smoothly, they are truly top notch. Did I mention talented? I honestly could not love them more, they are fabulous! So grateful for this group and know every wedding I have them booked, I never have to worry and my clients will be beyond happy. That is priceless!”
- Kristi Purvis, Kiss the Bride Weddings | Watercolor, FL
“As a wedding planner there are so many moving parts, and the party and dancing is what the memories are made of. Both the special moments, party at the end of the night, and all the transitions in-between! It's the best knowing my clients are in great hands for all of it! They are great at making all the generations happy, playing your special requests and making sure everyone knows what is happening. It's a pleasure to work with such a talented band that all does all of the logistics well! They are a band, but sound is always appropriate for the space, and grandma who wants to be close to the dance floor isn't going to be mad if the music is too loud! It's a nice deep breath walking into a weekend knowing I'll be happy and all the guests are happy too! Brides and Planners, book them now!!!”
- Emily Goldstein, Marea Weddings & Events | Buford, GA
“As wedding planners, we are looking for vendors who provide an exceptional product/service, have strong communication skills, and are easy to work with. Young Hearts was all of these things and more!
They were organized, communicative, kind, collaborative, and put on a phenomenal show! The couple and family where blown away with their show stopping performance and could not be happier with their decision to book Young Hearts for their wedding day.
We will certainly be recommending them to our current and future couples!”
- Jenny Lynn, Before the Vows | Chattanooga, TN
“The band was AMAZING!!! Our guests loved the band, the songs they performed and everything about them. I've never had so many compliments at an event. I would highly recommend them to anyone considering booking Young Hearts.
The booking process was so easy with Sam Hill Entertainment. I really appreciated the planning call a few weeks before the event. It helped so much and as a result everything was perfect!”
- Shannon J., Mother of the Bride | Watercolor, FL - October, 2024
“The band was absolutely fantastic! We got a ton of guests telling us they loved them. They did an AWESOME job with our "special" songs, ran on time, and were just so great to work with. Alyssa is such a sweetheart!”
- Summer, Bride | Atlanta, GA - October, 2024
“We can’t say enough positive things about the Young Hearts band. They were absolutely fabulous. Everyone who attended has said that it was the best band they’ve ever seen at a wedding. Not only was their performance spectacular, they were also great to work with. After performing at my sisters wedding two years ago, we never had a doubt that we wanted to work with Young Hearts as well.
Again, we can’t say enough how wonderful they were! They made our already special day even better.”
- Caroline & Eric, Bride & Groom | Cincinnati, OH - July, 2024
“Young Hearts was one of the best parts of our wedding day. Our biggest goal was to provide a fun and high energy environment for our guests and Young Hearts fully delivered. The dance floor was filled all night long and everyone had such a blast - the band is beyond talented and all our guests said the music selections were great. We couldn't recommend Young Hearts enough - they're the best!”
- Katie C., Bride | Atlanta, GA - April, 2024
“We hired Young Hearts for our clients’ wedding at Montage Palmetto Bluff and they blew everyone away. Their communication via phone, email, and our during client conference call prior to the wedding was so helpful. They even learned a secret song to be a surprise played from the father of the bride to the bride. Their energy, musical prowess and vibe had everyone on the dance floor the whole night. My clients were really nervous and wanted to ensure they had an amazing band.....YOUNG HEARTS DID NOT DISAPPOINT. So many guests, including the couple and her parents, were singling their praises all night and into the next morning.
If you are looking for a great band....look no further!”
- Laura Ritchie, Event Designer | Bluffton, SC - October, 2023
“Young Hearts was awesome! Personally, I only left the dance floor for a few moments the whole time they played. It was GREAT!! They supplied super energy!! We will recommend them as often as possible!”
- Dana, Client | Atlanta, GA - September, 2023
“Everyone raved about the band including the vendors! So many people approached us during the wedding and days later the band was incredible. Plus, both {Sam Hill Entertainment} and Alyssa were great to work with - thank you! I wish the night never ended!”
- Katherine, Bride | Dahlonega, GA - September, 2023
“Young Hearts was an experience! This group is extremely talented and really kept the event energy going. Not only did I enjoy listening to them and watching them preform but so did all the guests! To anyone looking for a band to hire, I highly recommend! You will not be disappointed! Hope to see them back at our venue soon!”
- Maggie Ruane, Event Manager, Phase Events | Alpharetta, GA - August, 2023
“Hands down, Young Hearts performed an amazing show for the Gala. That group of talents are very good at their craft. Each musician performed well, interacted with the guests and showed great stage presence. You have a solid package deal with those young artists. They are on fire!”
- Vicki Johnson, Corporate Client | Alpharetta, GA - August, 2023
“Young Hearts put on the best interactive show ever! This band was a breeze to work with, went with the flow when rain caused delays and worked tirelessly to make sure all guests enjoyed the evening. The high energy and fun never stopped! Book Young Hearts - you will love them!”
- Sharel Hooper, Event Planner | Lookout Mountain, GA - May, 2023
“It was such a pleasure working with [Young Hearts]! They were all so sweet and kind, which sadly in this world right now is rare. We would happily welcome them back anytime. I am actually about to add you all to our preferred vendor list!”
- Kaitlynn Camp, Event Manager | Lookout Mountain, GA - May, 2023
“We were so impressed with Young Hearts and can’t be happier we booked them as our band. They had fantastic energy/voices/dance moves, they didn’t stop for a break once their set began, and they kept the dance floor packed the whole night! We received so many compliments on the band! Notably, there were certain people that typically leave early from a wedding or sit down as it gets late, and they danced until the last song. Young Hearts did a great job of listening to our concerns and making sure their set list satisfied all generations all night.”
- Laura, Bride | Kiawah Island, SC - April, 2023
“From start to finish Young Hearts was an amazing experience!! Wonderful to work with prior to the event; the communication and planning process was wonderful! They worked with Clients' song requests with no issues (which is not always the case with bands).
Wonderful communication during the event, immediately announcing upon request- and of course, the DANCING! Unforgettable. Majority, if not all of the guests, were on the dance floor that entire time! The performers were en pointe with song selection and energy for the entirety of the event. I would recommend them to any of my future Brides & Grooms looking for a great band!”
- Jennalynne Blair, Wedding Planner | Atlanta, GA - April, 2023
“Phenomenal!!!! OMG, everyone was happy and the band was and is amazing!! I absolutely enjoyed working with them and watching them perform.”
- Ivy, Wedding Planner | Charlotte, NC - April, 2023
“Young Hearts absolutely blew us all away!! The entire dance floor was packed the entire night!! The whole experience was professional from the very start! Complete class act!! Our daughter, the bride, answered many questions and talked with Sam Hill a few times to plan things out the way she had envisioned. They absolutely nailed it!!! We loved their promo videos and they did not disappoint, they went far beyond. The bride and groom wanted a mix of music genres and it was the most amazing energy!! I would HIGHLY recommend them! Everyone loved them! PERFECTION!!!”
- Ann, Mother of the Bride | Rosemary Beach, FL - February, 2023

Thank you for executing above our expectations!”
- Kathleen M., Mother of the Bride | Watercolor, FL - September, 2022
“Young Hearts was a fabulous choice for our party. We asked for high energy cover songs (Oldies, Motown, rock, funk, and country) and they did it all in a straight 3 hour set! Couldn’t have been better and both the families that sponsored our party called the next day to make sure they knew the band’s name and said it was the best year ever for this annual event.
This is the second time we have used this band for our club events and I would book them again in a minute.”
- Susan R. | Keswick, VA - September, 2022
“First of all, Young Hearts & Sam Hill were so wonderful and easy to work with! We appreciate everyone being so flexible and working with us to make our special day as seamless as possible. Alyssa was so communicative, thoughtful, and kind.
Second, Young Hearts was UNBELIEVABLE. They exceeded every single expectation we had! They absolutely killed it. The set list, the musicians, the vocalists... all top notch. Complements continue to roll in from our guests. General consensus: Best band ever. We could not be more pleased. Will be recommending them to everyone we know!”
- Ally Duncan, Bride | Decatur, GA - August, 2022
“I just want to tell you how beyond happy we were with your band at our daughter’s wedding last Saturday! I knew you guys were good from your videos, but, even better live and in person. You were beyond our expectations and can’t thank you enough. Everyone kept on coming up to us telling us that you were one of the best, if not thee best, band that they have heard at a wedding. I agree. Nobody left the dance floor!! You did exactly as I asked which was to put on a classic Young Hearts show! I loved how it started at the beginning to give everyone a taste of what to expect the rest of the night.”
Wayne Neumann, Father of the Bride | Charleston, SC - 2022
“They were OUTSTANDING!!! They are the absolute best and I loved working with them. Our client was over the moon with Young Hearts and guests were on the dance floor the whole night. I love working with Alyssa as well! Very professional.
Mike, I can’t rave about them enough…. They were perfect!!”
Tammie Wilson, Owner | The Party Girl Events (Atlanta) - March, 2022
“Everything went very well with Young Hearts! They were fantastic and Alyssa was easy to work with leading up to the event - very warm and made it apparent she wanted the night to turn out just right.
I shared the below with Alyssa earlier this week:
We wanted to extend a huge thank you to you and the whole Young Hearts band. The ambience at dinner was just right, the setup looked great, and we had the BEST time dancing with you all. We have heard nothing but rave reviews from all of our guests about how impressive y'all sounded, how fun and energetic everyone was, how people of all ages were swept up from the first song, and how talented each of you were. We couldn't agree more and couldn't be happier with your performance. The time on the dance floor with our friends and family was definitely a highlight for us all and I was not ready for it to end at 11!
We are also so appreciative of all your patience and understanding as we rescheduled and made adjustments due to COVID. We feel very lucky that it worked out to have you as our band after two + years of planning.“
- Hannah, Bride | New Orleans - March, 2022
“Thanks for reaching out about the wedding on Saturday! Young Hearts was AMAZING and the group had so much fun being on the dance floor. The band was quick to accommodate a last minute timeline change and were so wonderful to work with! Would love to have them back at CCV again in the future!“
- Melissa Farmer | Assistant Director of Special Events, The Country Club of Virginia - October, 2021
“When planning our wedding, the main thing I knew we couldn’t go without having was a live band. We had heard members of YH a handful of times in the last few years at social gatherings and I’d made up my mind pretty early on that they needed to be our wedding band…. Let me tell you, it was the best decision ever looking back on everything. They were incredible from the beginning to the end. They were so flexible and helpful during set up due to the fact we were dealing with a torrential downpour an hour before the ceremony. Each of them were happy to help relocate the stage and all of their equipment to an undercover location despite the fact they were in the middle of their setup. I could not have asked for a better group to play at the reception either. The band kept everyone from all ages at the reception engaged throughout the whole night with their high energy and creative song choices. It seems that every conversation we’ve had with our guests since the wedding is centered around how much fun they had dancing to our band. Thank you so much Young Hearts! If you’re in the market for a live band experience, you absolutely can not go wrong with this great group of incredibly talented people!”
-Jeremy Tice [Groom, Chattanooga, TN]
“We came upon Young Hearts through a suggestion from a friend and just booked them, sight and sound unseen! Man, did they deliver! A very talented and professional group of young entertainers. From the point of hire to the day after, we were pleased with every aspect of the band. Our guests loved them! We had so many compliments specifically about the band and how talented and fun they were. It was a pleasure to chat with them afterward! Highly recommend! 5 stars"
-Tina Fain [ Mother of the Bride, Knoxville, TN ]
“We hired Young Hearts for our 4th of July extravaganza at Bear Lake Reserve. This is our biggest event of the season with the largest attendance and Young Hearts delivered an amazing performance for our members and guests. They are true entertainers and really know how to get a crowd going. Alyssa was so easy to work with and the whole band was very friendly. We recommend Young Hearts to anyone and everyone!"
-Sarah Hagar [ Lifestyle Director, Bear Lake Reserve ]
“As performers, Young Hearts delivered two outstanding concerts for Destination Imagination Global Finals 2017 with one tailored for an outdoor picnic venue and the other for our costume ball. Thousands of DI participants found themselves engulfed in the YH fun! Young Hearts and their members are professional, easy to work with, talented, and just plain fun! Truly a value-add to our event!”
- Johnny Wells [ Director of Education, Destination Imagination, Inc. ]
“After having a nite of the sweet dessert, Young Hearts owned the stage and entertained everyone with their live performance! Hands down, this was Anita & Bryan's dream wedding celebration, so big kudos to Joie de Vivre Events, for taking our lovebirds' vision and making it a reality as this is a talent available just to a handful of experienced planners! “
- Shawna [ CEO - Founder, Maharani Weddings ]
“Young Hearts is literally THE BEST WEDDING BAND I have EVER heard, and I am beside myself that they played at our daughter's wedding in Blue Ridge! They put on a show like you have never seen, and EVERYONE was talking about them! The dance floor was packed all night! They sound so professional and are fascinating to watch... all so talented, energetic, and beautiful! Young Hearts exceeded my expectations for a wedding band, so if you are considering booking them, DO IT!”
-Buffi Haggard [ Mother of the Bride, Willow Creek Falls and Vineyard ]
“Thank you guys so much for making my "big day" absolutely amazing. People have still not stopped talking about how awesome you guys were! I had a blast and I know everyone else did too based on how packed the dance floor was all night! I really cannot thank you enough for being so patient and understanding with our muddy field situation. Couldn't have asked for a better band to rock the night!”
-Kathleen Lohay [ Bride, Bell Buckle, TN ]
“We recently enjoyed the honor of having you at our daughters wedding! What a perfect reception as we danced to every song. You all are the epitome of professionalism and fun. Every song was awesome and your energy never wavered. Your talent is a gift to those lucky enough to enjoy your performance. Lauren and Noel will remember their special day for decades and you were the essence of dance the night away!”
- Patty Schuette [ Mother of the Bride, Lexington, KY ]
“I am still getting compliments on how great the band was and how they have never in their life heard a band as great as Young Hearts! They even went a step further and said this was absolutely the best wedding they have ever been to. This would not be possible without you and The Young Hearts Band. You have exceeded my expectation by 1000 times and made my daughter's wedding a moment she will never forget.”
-Brad Poole [ Father of the Bride, Lexington, KY ]
"The members of Young Hearts band are consummate professionals - plus it is evident that they love what they do. Young Hearts played at our daughter's evening wedding reception, and their performance elevated a beautiful, fun evening into a spectacular one. Their musicianship, their choreography and their stage presence just "wowed" everyone in attendance. Their song sets were incredible and they really connected with the audience. Everyone, of all ages, spent most of the evening on the dance floor - formal wear and all! They far exceeded our expectations, and they were a delight to work with. Hire these talented people as soon as you can!
-Stephanie Edick [ Mother of the Bride, Knoxville, TN ]
Everyone thoroughly enjoyed my daughter's wedding reception and can't stop talking about how great the band was!! Working with Alyssa and the rest of the group was really wonderful. They were easy to work with in a totally different venue, and the music is beyond fantastic!! Thanks guys for helping to make this such a memorable occasion!
-Ann Patterson [ Mother of the Bride, Atlanta, GA ]
“We could not have been happier with Young Hearts for our daughter's wedding last Saturday night. Absolutely fantastic! We've had so many wonderful compliments on the band, and we feel you guys just made our reception.”
-Tammy Flack [ Mother of the Bride, Chattanooga, TN ]
"Young Hearts was the most amazing addition to our wedding day! They were really helpful with little details like wedding party announcements and background music during our meal. They were super helpful in gathering all of the information needed to make the day a success. The band has AMAZING talent, so much fun and energy too. Lots of our wedding guests asked us about the band and complimented us on a great choice of music for our reception. I would highly recommend them for your event! Especially if you have a night wedding. We had an afternoon wedding, but I think they would be incredible for a night wedding to help you party through the night!"
