Best wedding band ever!

And it’s not just me saying that! Thought the night, all our guests came up to us saying JMV was the best wedding band they had ever heard. They kept the energy high and everyone on the dance floor ALL NIGHT! Malynda was a joy to work with and the whole crew exceeded every expectation!

Amazing wedding band`

We are so happy to have found the Red Letter Players with JMV Entertainment for our wedding reception. I tend to be a little picky about music and REALLY did not want a cheesy wedding band, and they were absolutely perfect. Malynda was wonderful to work with leading up to the big day. The band was fantastic and our guests loved them. Great talents and a fun crew. As if all of that wasn't good enough they are as reasonably priced as you will be able to find. Cannot recommend them enough!!

JMV Entertainment was amazing. The Red Letter Players absolutely killed it.

We worked with Malynda from JMV Entertainment to have The Red Letter Players come down to Mexico City and play at our wedding. This was the first time they've ever done that. Malynda was so supportive with all our requests, and put in a lot of effort to make this work. The band even learned some new songs to play at our wedding and was flexible enough to play at two different venues. The value was incredible compared to all the other bands we looked at (and we looked at a lot)! All of our friends had an amazing time and the dance floor was packed for the entire 4 hours. Nothing but a great experience. Highly recommend to whoever is looking.

Fantastic, all around wedding band & entertainment

We had a great experience with JMV and the Red Letter Players and would highly recommend them, primarily due to a) ease of planning, b) comprehensive audio/music coverage, and C) they are a stellar band that kept the dance floor rocking all night.

A) Malynda and the JMV Team were easy to work with, helpful, and flexible from our initial contracting, to multiple COVID date/location changes, to finalizing our song list and detailed minute by minute wedding day plans.

B) We loved that JMV covered all our music and audio duties throughout the evening. They were able to provide a violinist/cellist & audio for our ceremony, jazz duo for the cocktail hour, 9 piece band, DJing during the band break, and emcee services throughout the night.

C) They kept the dance floor rocking and surpassed our already high expectations. Vocalists are what sets good bands apart from great ones, and the Red Letter Players' combinations of singers was able to hit all the right notes on a wide variety of songs. Adding in the horns gave the band a big stage feel and brought motown classics to life. Additionally, they really knew how to pace the sets, transition seamlessly from one song to next, and keep the audience engaged all night.

Many of our guests commented that the band was a true highlight of the wedding and the best band they'd ever heard at a wedding. We're now looking for excuses to throw another huge party and hire them again.

Best band ever!

JMV Entertainment provided the best band ever to our wedding! We ended up going with the Red Letter Players, who were professional, amazing in performance and definitely rocked the house! We got so many compliments on the music at our wedding and would definitely consider using them again for future events. If you're looking for a kickass band to liven things up, lots of fun music and people that are responsive, professional and helpful during the (at times) madness that can be wedding planning, you've come to the right place. Thank you so much guys!

Best band ever!

JMV was amazing! The Red Letter Players played at our wedding and they were hands down the highlight of the night! JMV handled the ceremony, cocktail hour, and even emceed. Malynda dealt with all my questions and communicated with me throughout the process. They were so professional and entertaining. EVERYONE loved them! Our wedding was even more perfect because of the band!!

Everybody RAVED about this band. Look no further, and hire JMV for your wedding or event. Music was the single most important aspect of our wedding, working in entertainment and music ourselves. We spent months interviewing and perusing bands to find the best group of musicians. And we sure found them! JMV / Red Letter Players floored everybody with their performance. We hired a ten piece band (four vocalists, two horns, and the core-four rock instruments), and they had everyone on the dance floor as soon as our grand entrance and first dance ended, and our guests were on their feet through the very last encore. They are a wildly talented group of young, attractive, and energetic vocalists and musicians. Each and every one of them is a star. Now the one thing that people don't tell you when you're planning a wedding (but should) is how non-responsive, disorganized, and unprofessional vendors can be. Let's face it, there isn't much repeat business in this industry! So vendors think - why care about customer service? And certainly why would anyone bother to go the extra mile for inquiring clients? This was exactly the issue we had when interviewing overpriced groups (like West Coast Music), who could quite honestly care less about your wedding, or you as an individual, and clearly only about their bottom line. That is not at all the case with Malynda Hale and JMV. Malynda was honestly the single most professional, kindest, and organized vendor we dealt with throughout the entire wedding planning process. She was sure to answer every question we had in a timely manner, was open to every musical idea and direction we'd planned for our day, graciously worked with our budget, and was incredibly accommodating and user-friendly to our venue and the rest of our vendor team. I cannot say enough great things about Malynda. She is truly a class act, warm, big hearted, and a spirited entrepreneur. Malynda made the entire process leading up to our wedding fun and enjoyable, and w
