My Guests Cannot Stop Talking About Boston Common Band

I cannot say enough positive things about Boston Common Band. I felt unworthy having a band this caliber perform at our wedding. I feel like they should/could be performing for stadiums of people instead. Their versatility and range of genres they can expertly cover, their choreography, the energy they bring the entire night, how easy it was to coordinate everything with Emily, their production and matching outfits all blew me away. My guests liked many of their song covers better than the original artist rendition. I truly cannot believe they are able to cover latin music, rap, hip hop, R&B, pop, soul, classics all so well. If you are going to book any band for an event, there is no one else you should book other than Boston Common Band.

Best band ever

Boston Common Band, where do we even begin? Hands down: best. decision. we. made. Boston Common Band is unlike any other wedding band I have seen or heard. From their tight knit harmonies, talent, personality, choreography, to their music selections - these musicians are absolute professionals. I have heard from many guests that this was the best wedding band they've ever experienced. They learned two songs for us, one of them being a special father/daughter dance where my dad and I joined in with harmonicas on "Piano Man." My friends keep referring to this night as the "best concert they ever went to" and I whole heartedly agree. They were one of the only bands we found during the search process who had videos of them singing live and that's because they are ALWAYS PHENOMENAL. My husband and I met doing musical theater, so music was immensely important to us. This band delivered. Boston Common did our AV for the ceremony and it was perfection. Emily even made a silence your phones announcement for us before the ceremony began. They also performed during cocktail hour and I received so many compliments on their song selections. Emily doubled as a vocalist/DJ, but also as a coordinator. She kept us on TIME and she always kept me in the loop. She acted as the MC for the evening, welcoming our guests, dropping jokes, and introducing toasts and speeches flawlessly. We are so grateful to Boston Common Band for everything they did for us. The portal that they used during the planning process is awesome and allowed us to input our timeline, do-not-plays, must-plays, and contact information for vendors. I appreciated their organization immensely and Emily is QUICK to respond via email. The final meeting was our favorite meeting. We had a call with Emily who had us cracking up laughing and got us super excited for the big day. Thank you for putting your heart and soul into our special day. It's clear that while you are talented and passionate, you make your bride and grooms feel as though their wedding is the only one. You cultivated the perfect vibe and the happiest and most FUN day of our entire lives. I will never get over how packed our 30'x30' dance floor was (and that is a BIG dance floor). Thank you, thank you!

Hire this band!!

The Boston Common Band was AMAZING! We hired them for both ceremony, cocktail hour and reception and the music was perfect. They had great suggestions for guitarist ceremony music which was really helpful and took some stress out of planning. They also are the "full package" meaning they come with all the mics, speakers and light show you need to have a ceremony everyone can hear (sometimes a struggle at other weddings I've been too....) and a dance party your guests will rave about! Hire this band, you'll have so much fun!

the BEST wedding band!

My best wedding planning advice would be hire Boston Common Band ASAP! My husband and I got married at the Popponesset Inn and Boston Common Band was the highlight of the reception. They kept the dance floor packed the entire night and all of our guests raved about how great the band was. No video will do them justice either - they are absolutely incredible live and worth the $!!

Get ready for the party of your lifetime!

WOAH. We found Boston Common Band while attending a friend’s wedding and knew on the spot that we they had to be our wedding band. We actually picked our wedding date based on BCB’s availability! Having seen them perform in person previously we knew they were going to be great, but wow did they exceed our expectations. They had all of our guests dancing for hours. Literally. So many of our guests are still talking about our band and how they didn’t leave the dance floor once all evening.

The energy that this group brings and maintains all night long is honestly impressive. They’re dancing, interacting with guests and truly trying to throw you the party of your life. Not only did they bring the fun, but the process of working with them leading up to the main event was amazing. They answered all of our incessant questions very promptly😊, accommodated all of our custom requests, and scheduled video calls with us in the few weeks leading up to the wedding to ensure they had all the details laid out.

If you’re considering a band for your wedding, just stop looking now and book these guys.

Beyond Amazing and Worth Every Penny!

The Boston Common Band was PHENOMENAL!!! To say they brought the party is an understatement…they made the party! All of our guests are still talking about how amazing they were and truly the best wedding band they have ever seen! It was more than a wedding band, it was a concert for our guests! We cannot thank you guys enough for delivering the most fun reception that we could have ever imagined; I didn’t want the party to end! Also want to send a big THANK YOU to DJ Shyne as well for providing excellent MC services and helping to organize the flow of our big day. Collectively, there aren’t enough words to describe the professionalism, talent, and pure energy that you get when hiring the Boston Common Band & ECF DJs. If you are truly looking to throw the party of a lifetime, this is your crew! THANK YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH, you were a dream come true!

Look no further!

In looking at music options for our wedding, we couldn’t decide whether to go band or DJ, and I stumbled across the Band/DJ combo offered through Boston Common. We had Soul Estate/DJ Manolo for our wedding, and it was one of the best choices we made! Music and sound were high up on our priority list, and the talent and energy from Soul Estate and DJ Manolo exceeded our expectations in every way. In addition to going above and beyond on the day-of, the planning process with these guys was a breeze from start to finish - they are truly rockstars in every sense of the word!

danced all night long!

We cannot say enough good things about Boston Common Band, as well as DJ T-Roc!!! Everyone raved about them the next day and people were on the dance floor all night long. They were all extremely responsive and easy to communicate with! They listened to all our suggestions and requests and were so helpful with any questions we have. Everyone had such a great time and it was the best decision to hire them as our band for our wedding!

Book them ASAP

The Boston Common Band and Josh (DJ J-Boogz) were outstanding, and even that might be an understatement. From the moment we booked, we had clear and timely communication with various band members and coordinators. Everyone was always on the same page and the planning interface was simple and easy to use. The video chat with the DJ about a month prior to the wedding was very helpful and made us feel 100% confident in their ability to coordinate an event and put on a show. Now for the music...the Boston Common Band is not your typical wedding band, they are insanely talented musicians and performers who bring a concert to your wedding. The number one comment we have received since the wedding has been how incredible the band was, and we could not agree more. This band is worth every penny and more, hire them ASAP. Thank you BCB, we love you!

Amazing night!

From the planning to the last song Boston Common was professional and certainly met all expectations. My Husband wanted a DJ and I was looking for a Band. Having the combo really made the night and was able to give us the variety we were hoping for. Prior to booking they ensured there was a time for us to see them play. They were the hit of our wedding and everyone has been talking about them!

We had the pleasure to work with the Boston Common Band during a recent wedding shoot of ours. We cannot say enough regarding how friendly, energetic, and passionate their members are. They produce great music and keep the party going throughout the night. We highly recommend them for any event that you need a band for.
