The absolute best!

I'm a professional musician and I own a nationally acclaimed award-winning music venue. My now wife is a wedding and events coordinator. For any band we were going to hire, the stakes were definitely going to be high. I have a lot of friends in really great bands but we decided to stay away from using our friends and take a chance on a band we didn't know that lived in the area where we were having our wedding. My wife got ahold of the East Coast Entertainment Booking Agency which her company often uses for weddings where we live. I gave her a price range and a description of what I felt we needed. Soon after I was sent a list of bands from the company and I, of course, was EXTREMELY picky. I also had to consider a list of songs that could cover everyone from the younger crowd on up to the relatives who were in their 90s. As I browsed down the list of bands some would seem corny, or had singers that I felt were trying too hard, or singers I just plain didn't like, but as I got further down, I put on Irresistible Groove's promo video and I knew that I found what I was looking for! To me, the price was great and their song list had everything we could have wanted for our wedding! I really loved the singer's voice. At the same time, in fulfilling such a vast song list, other people in the band could also take the lead on singing. Some would also switch to different instruments so that they could seamlessly nail down the many different sounds and styles of such a vast song list authentically. My reception entertainment was now covered! Yay!!! However... I still needed some form of entertainment for my cocktail party which was to take place before that. I was looking for a very dynamic Jazz Trio. Sure enough, they assured me they could do that with some of their members and the add-on price to make that happen was fantastic! Fast forward to the wedding... The Jazz trio started right after our ceremony and were completely legit!! They had no music tablets or sheets in front of them anywhere and they were an excellent fit for the cocktail party vibe! I knew with the way these guys could swing some Jazz that they were truly top-level pro musicians! Soon after the cocktail party we walked in as Mr. and Mrs. for our first dance at the reception which the band executed perfectly. Once dinner was over, the lights went down and they instantly brought the party to life!! They literally NEVER stopped playing and everything they did musically was amazing!! It was a ball of energy from start to finish! Their sound levels we're great! (That's a big thing for me and my Mom as well) They we're so accommodating with anything I asked of them and I honestly could not have found a better, more professional band for my wedding! They completely blew my expectations away!! I am now a fan for life and I'll be recommending them to everyone I know! BOOK THEM!!! You'll be glad you did!

Best wedding band ever!

WOW! I don't even know where to begin with a review for Irresistible Groove... This band is incredible and has it all! Music is so important to us and we were blown away by Lee and the members of the band. Their setlist variety is huge and they are willing to expand for special requests. When we came to them with an idea for a New Orleans style exit Lee was excited to help us fulfill all our wedding dreams. We had guests dancing that have NEVER been on the dance floor and one guest literally stood there all night and filmed them because he 'had to show everyone how great they were'. I could cry thinking about how perfect our night way and IG was a huge contributor to that. They are fun, professional, communicative and most importantly truly want all your wedding dreams to come true. We want to get married again just to hire this amazing band.

These guys were not only able to provide soft light lovely ceremony music but they then got every guest up on the floor and dancing during the reception!
