Great experience!

Men in Black are the best! We hired them after interviewing a few different bands. We liked that we knew exactly who we were getting, since the band doesn't rotate members in and out depending on availability like some of the other wedding bands on the circuit. We did not have a chance to check out a live showcase before making our decision but we went off of MiB's great reviews, their videos, and our very positive conversations with Jeff. We made the right decision!

In the months leading up to the wedding, Jeff was extremely available for phone calls regarding timelines, music selections, and other questions. We ended up adding on an extra hour of Nick the pianist's time for cocktail hour- it was an easy process to add this on and it streamlined our decisions since we didn't have to hire a separate musician. They would've done our ceremony too if we'd wanted, but we had our ceremony offsite at a church. The band was flexible in terms of song selection- we gave them our input and they did a great job mixing in our requests with crowd favorites. We wanted to use the recorded version of our first dance song, so they agreed to learn another song that was not on their list in its place, which we really appreciated!

On the day of the wedding, the band was prompt and professional. Nick did a great job during cocktail hour and having the piano music really elevated the experience. The band played a lowkey set during part of dinner, and once dinner was done the party was rolling! Every member of the band brought incredible energy the entire night and it was clear they were genuinely having fun! During our prewedding calls Jeff had mentioned a "audience participation" component- honestly I was a little skeptical, but (without spoiling it), he and Wendy do an amazing job of getting everyone involved without having it be cheesy or forced! My family loves to rock out at weddings and so it was really important to me to have a band who could crush it. Men in Black more than delivered!! You will not regret hiring them for your wedding.

Best Wedding Band Ever

Men in Black was hands down the best wedding band we could have asked for! The dance floor was packed the entire night, and they did an incredible job keeping the energy high and the party going from start to finish.

Jeff and the entire crew were fantastic to work with — incredibly easy to communicate with, accommodating, and professional throughout the entire process. They also did an amazing job handling so many aspects of the day, from ceremony audio and cocktail-hour guitar to our first dances, coordinating speeches, and serving as MCs to keep everything running smoothly and on schedule.

Once the reception kicked off, they absolutely brought the house down. The energy, stage presence, and ability to keep everyone engaged were unmatched. Our dance floor was full all night long, and our guests had an absolute blast.

We truly cannot recommend Men in Black enough. If you're looking for a band that will make your wedding unforgettable, look no further. Jeff and the crew are awesome. 10/10 — book them!

Unbelievable.

I can't even begin to describe how much of a difference maker Men In Black are. They completely transform the night with unforgettable, high energy music that kept our entire dance floor FULL till the last song. People were raving about it still weeks later telling us it felt like a concert. My wife's brother, cousin, and now us have hired them and they have been unreal everytime. It is a world's difference having them there and I would recommend them in a HEARTBEAT. Jeff is such a kind, great bandleader and all the musicians are so incredible and kind. They made a night we will never forget.
Thank you Jeff & Men In Black hope to see you again soon!

10/10 best band

Men in Black is the BEST of the best! As soon as we got engaged, we reached out to book the band before we even had a venue secured. The dance floor was packed from the second the reception started until the very last song. Two months after the wedding, people are STILL texting me asking for the band’s name so they can reach out for their own weddings!

Jeff made the entire process so seamless and was so easy to work with from start to finish. I wish I could relive that night over and over again! To give you an idea of how good they were, they actually had to tell people to sit down and finish their meals because everyone kept getting up to dance between courses. 😂

THANK YOU, JEFF & THE BAND, for making our wedding so unforgettable!

Wedding Band - Beauport Hotel - AWESOME

WOW, WOW, WOW, is simply all I can say. I’m not even biased in saying that the Men In Black Band is the GREATEST wedding band I have ever seen. Our wedding was a couple of months ago now and I’m still sore from the amount of dancing we did. The entire dance floor was filled from start to finish. Jeff and his team were the consummate professionals. They were extremely attentive, receptive and helpful during the planning process. They managed the entire ceremony audio set up and music without a hiccup. Jeff was a fantastic MC for the reception as well. He was well spoken, funny and clear in his delivery. After that, the party was on in a major major way. We booked the full band with lighting and added both the saxophone and trumpet for horns. The songs they played were a combination of all decades to get the whole crowd involved. They were interactive and flexible throughout the entire night, making sure they kept the energy flowing all the way through. Put it this way… if you want a rock concert with a fully packed dance floor all night for your wedding, then book the MIB Band. They are freaking awesome.

Didn't leave the dance floor once!

Men in Black is truly a spectacular band. We used them for our ceremony music and mic, cocktail music, added the uplights, and added on all three horns. When I tell you that I did not leave the dance floor ONCE, I am not joking. Every song was just too good that I didn't want to leave, and other friends were telling me the same. They would start to leave to go get a drink, and then MIB would start the next song, and they'd turn and run right back to the dance floor.

Jeff was SO easy to work with, answering all our questions, telling us exactly what he needed from us, and remembering EVERY small detail we told him. We took dance lessons, so we wanted the live music to be exactly on beat with the music we learned it to, and they were 100% spot on. We also asked them to play the sax to lead the wedding guests from the ceremony area down to the reception, and they nailed that as well. And finally, we sent them a recording to play before one of the songs, and they got that spot on.

The attention to detail, energy, professionalism, and joy they brought literally made our wedding night. People have been asking me what my favorite part was, and I've been saying, "the dancing." Jeff brought my husband and me onto the stage as well, which was a blast and a half. They engaged with the audience in such a perfect way. The songs that they performed were perfect, truly certified dance floor fillers. I've had a few people tell me it's the best band they've heard at a wedding.

I would 10000% recommend this band. They were better than I could have imagined!

The BEST Wedding Band!!

Men in Black was absolutely amazing and truly made our wedding night so much fun! They had a live guitarist for the cocktail hour who was also amazing, we upgraded to the saxophone and he was SOOO good on the floor with the sax , dancing with the crowd. I already knew they were going to be great because i have heard them before, but they were even better than we ever imagined. They sounded incredible, kept the energy high all night, and had everyone out on the dance floor the entire time. They didn’t even take a break because everyone was having too much fun. I especially loved how much they interacted with the crowd and made everyone feel like they were part of the performance. The timing, song choices, and flow of the entire night were perfect. So many of our guests are still talking about how awesome the band was and how much fun they had! We are so happy we chose Men in Black for our wedding and cannot recommend them enough. Thank you to Jeff and the entire band for making our wedding night better than we ever could have imagined!

Kept the Dance Floor Packed All Night!

We could not have been happier with Men in Black! From start to finish, they brought the most incredible energy and made our reception such a fun, unforgettable night. They had an amazing ability to read the room and knew exactly what songs would keep everyone out on the dance floor. They played nonstop, covered all the songs everyone wanted to hear, and kept the party going all night long.

So many guests came up to us during and after the wedding to tell us how incredible the band was. The dance floor was packed all night, which was exactly what we hoped for. Men in Black absolutely delivered and we would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for an amazing wedding band!

Book these great people for your event now!

Last October, my wife and I were married in Southern Vermont. Going in, we already knew we loved this talented group from having seen them at two previous weddings. However, we couldn't anticipate how much this group would add to our own special day. Jeff and his band kept our many friends and family lively throughout the night with a good mix of classic and contemporary music. They truly know how to capture the moment at each and every stage of the night, not to mention the professionalism with which they do their work. Jeff and his band could not have exceeded our expectations any further - our first dance of Neil Young's "Harvest Moon" is a lifelong memory for us among many from the night. I recommend these great people for any couple looking for a night full of lively energy and laughter. The cherry on top was the cowbell they provided to me and my wife when they graciously shared the stage with us at the end of the night. Thank you Jeff and Team - we hope to see you on a dance floor again in the future!
