About The Wildcards – professional Wedding & Party band based in Bologna, Italy

We go by The Wildcards, and since 2002, we have played at over 600 weddings across Italy, making us one of the most significant bands in the wedding industry.

We have created a new project specifically for destination weddings in Italy so that future married couples can benefit from all of our knowledge.

Thanks to the power of music, we are a real live showband that looks after the bride and groom during the entire wedding day, actively and totally handling every circumstance that arises.

More information about The Wildcards

We are five musicians: Andrea is our wild bass player, Paolo and Chiara are our great singers, Massimo is our amazing and handsome guitarist, Valerio plays the drums very well, but his main responsibility has been managing our incredible band since 2002!

Remember that Paolo is an excellent pianist and acoustic guitarist, and Valerio is a fantastic DJ.

Over the years, we have accumulated hundreds of reviews, and our videos will help you grasp what we are discussing.

Our repertory is extraordinarily broad, spanning from the well-known Italian classics to the rock 'n roll classics of the 1960s, the hits of the 1970s and 1980s, and the hits of the 1990s and 2000s.Our acoustic aperitif set is highly sought-after for savouring the dusk with every guest. An essential component of the program is entertainment. You will be forced to sing and dance by Paolo and Chiara until the celebration is over.

Not to mention the moments that make a wedding truly memorable, like the couple's slow dance or bouquet toss, which we always handle.

We can also provide extra, chargeable services like lighting, audio, DJing, and vocalists.

"Thank you Wildcards!
What can I say? Any word would be superfluous to describe these amazing guys! Crazy band, between a video call and a call with the fantastic Valerio we managed to organize everything remotely Rome- Bologna, they listened to our every wish turning it into reality! Amazing band, really wonderful live music, vast report, we received many compliments from our guests for their performances and entertainment! Well done! Not to mention the human side, very nice, easy-going and super reliable! Highly recommend! Great guys! And thank you again!"

"Lorenzo and I got married in the province of Viterbo and we forced the Wildcards to take a nice trip from Bologna!
We discovered them online and already with the first telephone contact we felt the magic!
Our feelings were then reconfirmed also on the occasion of the following meetings and from listening live during a party where they played.
On our wedding day, the entertainment was nothing short of superb: we didn't expect that all our guests were going wild on the dance floor right from the aperitif! Wildcards have been able to perfectly coordinate all the various moments included in the setlist, also including the various surprises organized by our friends and have accompanied us until the end without ever lowering the hype!!
We literally closed and people would probably have danced again!
I add that Paolo's voice is so beautiful that nothing else is needed, he gave us the best accompaniment we could wish for during the various special moments of our wedding.
A heartfelt thank you guys, you already know that you have earned two more groupies at your concerts, for us you are not only suppliers but also friends!!"

"Do I recommend them?
Do you want to have the party of your dreams? Then it's the band you have to choose.
Very good, unique, in tune, crazy unleashed, they have a crazy list of revisited pieces, available, whatever you ask them you only get yes!
We are two rock newlyweds, our entrance was a mix of morricone-metallic, it came out a crazy exit!
I love them and my husband was very excited!
Thank you guys for your energy and professionalism, we feel for other events because it cannot end in a single evening!"

"AMAZING Wildcards !
💛❤
What about the Wildcards .... They are wonderful people, indeed wonderful to say the least! They were able to involve all our guests in our wedding with dancing and singing!
The guests were super happy, they repeatedly asked us where we had found these crazy but at the same time amazing guys!
Thank you so much for making our day Special!
I highly recommend this group if you also want a nice lively party!!"

"If you are looking for a group that will make you and your guests dance from start to finish, choose the Wildcards! The guys were immediately super helpful and listened to us and advised us in the best possible way. We received compliments from all our guests for the choice made! Super recommended!"

"If you don't want to make a mistake, CHOOSE THEM!!
Do you have doubts about what music to play? Do you want to have all the guests dancing and singing (grandparents, babies and international guests included)?? Well, do one simple thing and sign Wildcards now!
The choice was a combination of events that created a SPATIAL mix! We didn't know them at all and they indulged us and helped us in everything. From the SIAE compilation to the staging of the ceremony. Everything perfect, all perfect! We had foreign guests (Mexican and European) and they sang, at the top of their throats, MALEDETTA PRIMAVERA, the enthusiasm at that moment started at a thousand that charged the band even more. Reliability, professionalism, friendliness and madness from all of them, in addition to photo and video maker!! What more do you want?!? Choose them and your day will be PERFECT! Play it safe! I want to add that all of them are exquisite people but an extra note goes to Valerio with whom I had a great time in the management of the whole event and more!
Thank you so much for the unforgettable day"

"Wildcards on the Moon!
Great... They coordinated the evening together with the catering and the jokes... They entertained all the guests... they were not intrusive at all ... They accompanied us at all times of the evening in an intelligent and nice way. but above all they made our little girl play the guitar and drums who has been telling me about it for two days .... We are really satisfied with the choice"

"Wedding Gio Ale.. crazy party..!!
Thanks to the professionalism and energy of the trentakarte, our wedding turned into a crazy party until late at night. We couldn't believe our eyes when after the first course all the guests started dancing with us dragged by Valerio and company. If we were to rest 100 times we would have no doubts about which band to call. A special mention for Valerio with whom we made all the arrangements, an exceptional guy, very helpful, practically a friend.
Rock and roll!"

"Marriage? Party, happiness and guaranteed fun!
A friendly relationship is immediately established with the band, they are always available and open to

any request and need. During the wedding they proved to be professional by being independent without causing us any disturbance by coordinating with the other suppliers. They amazed us with live songs and starting an unexpected party right from the aperitif where all the guests thanked us for the entertainment and fun that continued even during the dinner, which was not boring but alive. Everyone was stunned. Highly recommended!"

"Absolutely the best choice
I state a detail, we in Rome and they in Bologna and I must admit that we were a little perplexed in choosing a service a bit blindly, based on videos and managing everything remotely. But in the meantime we decided to try to hear them to see what they were transmitting to us.
I have to say I would choose them 1000 times again.
From the beginning they gave us enthusiasm, confidence, availability and professionalism. And it was like that until the end!
They managed with their enthusiasm and skill to entertain us and our guests despite the inconveniences related to bad weather. They danced with us and were always engaging.
Thanks again guys
Keep up the good work"
