AFTERPARTY DJs
Somebody once said "always leave them wanting more." This person was wrong. Just because the FatPocket party has ended doesn't mean yours has to... enter the DJ Afterparty.
We're partnered with some of the best DJ's to ever hit the scene, equally adept at packing a nightclub as they are facilitating a wedding. By booking your DJ with us, you ensure a seamless handoff and collaboration on style and setlists, avoiding any pesky repeat songs throughout the night.
9-Piece Band
"The Core"
Our core band covers everything a party needs. Including a showstopping female vocalist, three male lead vocals/horn players, guitar/vocals, 2nd guitar, keys, bass and drums.
This 9-Piece ensemble is pulling double duty giving you the sound of a 13-piece ultra-party band.
We recommend this size for up to 200-225 guests, in rooms that can fit a 24x12ft or 20x16ft stage.
12-Piece BAND
"The Show"
The 12-Piece is for those occasions where you want the band to be the focus of the night and you want to absolutely blow your guests away.
Adding a second lead female vocalist and two more horns allows FatPocket to be equal parts show band with a horn section ready to take any event to the next level.
We recommend this size for larger events, requiring at least a 24x16ft stage.
Cocktail Hour
FatPocket's foundation is rooted in the jazz tradition with many of its members having Bachelor's degrees in Jazz performance.
Our cocktail hour offerings include solo piano and jazz trio, typically consisting of sax/vocals, piano and light drums. Get the classy vibes going early!
OUR OFFERINGS
In their words
"exceeded our expectations in every way."
"We booked them FIRST when we got engaged because we knew that the dance floor was important to us and we wanted our guests to have a blast... They put on an amazing show that had people who usually never dance out on the floor all night long. We didn't want the night to end...
- Taylor & TJ
Additional experiences
Sometimes the band isn’t the only thing that makes the night explode. From DJs and electric violinists to immersive performers and surprise moments, we can help layer in elements that turn a great party into something unexpected.
what we bring to the party
The "core" band
FatPocket’s core nine-piece band is built for impact. Our horn players and guitarist also double as lead vocalists, delivering the power and versatility of a much larger band.
Custom requests
We learn wedding special dance songs for key moments like first dance and parent dances with no fees. Additional requests are considered on a case-by-case basis where they best support the energy of the event.
pro Audio production
Professional wireless audio is provided for toasts and announcements, with additional systems available as needed. Stage lighting is always included but we can always go over-the-top with our production partners when desired.
Covering all elements
We can handle entertainment across the full arc of the event, from cocktail hour through the last song of the night, so everything feels connected rather than pieced together. Emceeing and recorded music prior is included in all packages.
Book Fatpocket
Every booking is custom.
Average spend ranges from $12,500-$16,000 local to $25,000-$50,000 nationwide

Wedding Band Process
From "Hello" to "One More Song!"
PROCESS
STEP ONE - Initial consult
This isn’t just a pricing conversation. We’ll share availability and costs, but we’ll also offer practical input on your venue, timeline, and event flow to help you think through the night.
Our goal is to be a resource from the start, providing useful perspective whether you book with us or not.
STEP TWO - Proposal
from "hello" to "one more song"
Once ready, we'll send a contract to be returned with a 50% deposit. Once booked, we are available for consultation any time prior to the event.
STEP THREE - Scripting
Two months prior we'll want to start learning everything. Your song preferences, anything that needs learning/refreshing, impact moments, all the logistics, announcements, etc.
STEP FOUR - Event Day
FatPocket has been rehearsing for you behind-the-scenes and is fully prepped to deliver the show you've been waiting for. We arrive early, ensure everything works, check in with your vendor team and get hyped up to crush the party. We can't wait to perform for you.
