The Don Eaton Band Made Our Wedding Unforgettable!

My wife and I had a tremendous wedding, and the Don Eaton Band was a huge part of it. They were not only professional, prompt, friendly, and entertaining, but they made us feel so special. From start to finish, their music and energy set the perfect tone for the evening. Our wedding night will always be a night to remember, and we want to sincerely thank the Don Eaton Band for making it so magical.

Best decision we made = hiring Don Eaton Band -- the most AMAZING wedding band!

The best decision we made for our wedding was to hire the Don Eaton Band. The dance floor was ABSOLUTELY PACKED for the entire evening. Guests were in awe of their signing abilities -- completely floored with how good they were! When I see guests now (almost a month past the wedding), they still rave about the band! (Note: Our reception was in Bethlehem, PA, so do not let distance deter you. The entire band was there early for set-up and was professional from the first song to the last.)
When the last song was played, guests shouted, "One more song! One more song! One more song!" I have never experienced this at any other wedding.
I guarantee you & your guests will have the time of your life if you hire the Don Eaton Band. I've given out their name at least 20 times since the wedding.
Once we get more pictures back, I will definitely update these as they do not capture just how magnificent they were.

Don Eaton Band is nothing short of spectacular!

WOW. Don Eaton Band left us in complete awe following our wedding this spring. Their energy was contagious, their enthusiasm was elevated and their range of genres, instruments and vocals was completely unmatched! We couldn’t have been more impressed by them and were so fortunate to have them as our wedding band. The dance floor was packed ALL night. I’ll never forget when they played Tennessee Whiskey by Chris Stapleton and I was convinced Chris was on the stage. AMAZING!

Best wedding band ever!

Don Eaton band was absolutely incredible for our wedding. Every member of the band is so talented and did such a great job on every song and the dance floor was packed all night. Don also really helped us plan our reception timeline in a way that would flow well and keep everyone energized and having fun – I actually think this was the biggest thing that made our wedding feel so special and fun. As soon as I spoke to Don, I knew he understood exactly what I was looking for. They learned our first dance song and did an amazing job. Months later, people still tell us that Don Eaton Band is the best wedding they have ever seen, and that they had so much fun at our wedding. My husband and I had the best time of our lives. The band was probably the most important vendor to me, and Don Eaton absolutely blew us away.

Wow! The don eaton band delivered!

The Don Eaton Band took our expectations and blew them out of the water. For the past month it has been a constant stream of compliments stating just how spectacular our band was. Don and his crew turned our day from dream into reality. Their rendition of our wedding song (Coldplay - Til Kingdom Come) was everything we could have ever dreamed of. We would be over the moon to attend a wedding done by the Don Eaton Band.
