About this vendor

Located in Toledo, OH, 56DAZE is Ohio and Michigan’s ultimate wedding and event party band!

High Energy LIVE Party Music to Pack Your Dance Floor With "I'm Going to Feel That Tomorrow" Kind Of Fun!

56DAZE is incredibly versatile at providing accurate LIVE renditions of your favorite songs and will drive the night through decades of "danceable" and “sing-a-long” favorites. From the rock classics, Motown hits, 80's dance and pop, to the 90's alternative and today's modern rock and country, there is something for everyone to enjoy. We will customize the evening’s playlist to fit the musical taste of our couple and their guests.

On the day of the event, 56DAZE will be onsite a few hours before it starts to be setup, sound-checked, and ready to go when your guests arrive. Tony will EMCEE the event from the bridal party arrival through the end of the night and will have wireless mics available for those VIPs with speaking parts throughout the evening. We will provide pre-recorded music for the cocktails and dinner period and will keep the music rolling all night by DJ’ing a couple approved song list during any short band breaks later in the evening. After dinner, we kick up the live music until the lights come on or until you just can’t dance anymore. 56DAZE brings a state-of-the-art sound system perfect for any event large or small as well as a fully controlled light show for the evening’s live music performance and dancing.

56DAZE is comprised of some of the most proficient musicians in the Toledo, OH area and are united by a love of live performance and a passion to party please. Our commitment to excellence in service, sound, and performance makes us, 56DAZE, one of the best wedding and event bands in the Midwest.

The BEST wedding band!!!

We could not have asked for a better wedding band! We knew they were the ones when they performed at a wedding we attended last year when we were starting our wedding planning. From the very first song to the last, they seriously brought nonstop energy and kept every single guest, no matter their age, out on the dance floor all night long. All of the band members were incredibly talented, the vocals were outstanding, and their song selection was perfect with a great mix of options that all guests knew and loved.
Beyond their performance, they were professional, easy to work with, and clearly passionate about making our wedding unforgettable and everything we hoped for it to be. They even helped us make several special requests possible without a question. We’ve had countless guests tell us it was the best band they’ve ever heard at a wedding. One even already booked them for their wedding next year.
If you’re looking for a band that will bring the party and create memories your guests will be talking about for years, we would highly recommend booking 56DAZE . It was truly one of the best decisions we made!!

56DAZE – Wedding Band Extraordinaire!

We couldn’t be happier with our decision to have 56DAZE play at our wedding, they were incredible from start to finish! From the moment we first reached out, they were informative, professional, and responsive, answering all of our questions and making the planning process so smooth and stress free. But what really set them apart was their performance. The vocals and musicianship were top-notch these are truly talented performers! They knew exactly how to read the room, keeping the energy high and the dance floor packed all night long. Every song felt perfectly chosen, and their ability to interact with the crowd made the night feel personal and unforgettable. Our guests are still talking about how much fun they had dancing, and we honestly couldn’t imagine our big day without 56DAZE. If you’re looking for a band that combines professionalism, talent, and the ability to bring a party to life, look no further. 56DAZE is simply the best!

The band was phenomenal!

The band was phenomenal! The dance floor was packed all night thanks for their incredible song list, and they were an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the entire planning process! They even learned and added new songs that we requested and also setup early at our venue so that we could use their sound system for the actual ceremony earlier in the day. The guys were all super nice and super fun and really made our son and DIL’s wedding really special!

Wedding Band

56DAZE was very easy to work with. They were very personable and made us feel at ease on our big day. They met with us prior to see what we wanted to hear at the reception. They were very professional to meet with and everyone loved dancing to their music.

They made the night

I cannot say ENOUGH positive things. I was admittedly nervous, hiring sight unseen and truly never seeing them perform ever. But I was always made to feel heard, at ease and responsiveness was off the charts quick. Then...the wedding night itself...holy moly. My guests danced ALL NIGHT LONG. The song selection and set order was perfect. Every "must play" was achieved. The smiles were everywhere. Since the wedding, I have had tons of compliments about the band. You guys made the night! I have a friend who runs an event in CALIFORNIA that wants you guys to come out for it. Truly spectacular. THANK YOU!

Best day of our lives, thanks to 56 Daze

We had the greatest experience with 56Daze as our wedding band!! Tony was always responsibe, easy to communicate with, and determined to make sure our day was perfect. On the day, he ran our ceremony music flawlessly and helped make sure we were staying on track with our time. The reception was truly the best night of our lives, thanks to 56daze! They honored our special requests for family traditions, which were the highlights of the wedding day. Its been 3 months and everyone is still talking about how incredible the band was! Not only did they help to make our day special, but they truly put on an amazing show. They played the music we wanted, and it was like our own personal concert!! Our venue coordinators even said it was the best wedding reception they had seen, thanks to the incredible performance by 56Daze. We are even tracking their live performance schedule and trying to go to a festival performance, we enjoyed them so much! I would recommend them to any friend or family, and would hire them again for an event in a heartbeat. Thank you, 56Daze!

Oh What a Night!

Tony and his band mates were nothing short of amazing! This was our second wedding with 56Daze as our band and I would 100% recommend them to any one considering a band. (We are the parents). Both of our daughters and their husbands were impressed with the band’s playlists and their knack for keeping the dance floor packed. They were super responsive and easy to communicate with. They listened to what our daughter wanted and also did a perfect job with the ceremony songs and the MC duties. We could not have asked for more. Thank you 56Daze for helping us make a night to remember!

We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
