Ben Marcato and his Mondo Combo played at our wedding in Mill Valley. They started the dinner hour and continued with dancing afterward. Great reviews were flowing freely, everyone from patriarchal uncles to music savvy friends who raved all night.

They are a professional band, and it shows in the music. When we talked to Ben, we found out some interesting tid-bits... they've played at over 500 weddings, and one of them was Jerry Garcia's.. (but don't assume they play Grateful Dead music).

I'd like to add that hearing them play at the Top of the Mark is a great time as well. Take your friends out, and you all can chit chat about your wedding over a martini.
