Concerts, Catholicism & Crowd Surfing: How Brantley & Nick’s Music-First Wedding Hit Every High Note
Brantley and Nick didn’t want a wedding.
They wanted a show.
And not just the “good vibes and live band” kind of show — they meant a full production. Lighting. Sound design. Stage management. Set lists. Seamless transitions. A 30-piece marching band. And a headline act by none other than the couple and their crew — the Family and Friend Jam Band, a legitimate group of talented musicians made up of (you guessed it) their actual family and friends.
At Epoch Co+, we’re known for shaking up the usual wedding format. And this one? It was a full-on remix. Our job wasn’t just producing a wedding — it was directing a love-fueled, glitter-splashed, BBQ-scented concert experience… all with a timeline that hit every cue without a single missed beat.

Planning Your Own Untraditional Wedding?
We’ll never push you toward trends that don’t feel like you. We’ll never talk you into “the way it’s always done.” And we’ll never shy away from big, beautiful, maybe-a-little-crazy ideas.
If you’re dreaming of a wedding that feels like a backyard concert, a Michelin-star dinner party, or a day that defies categories altogether — you’re in the right place.
