The best wedding band!!!!

No Standards were the life of the party!! I couldn't have been happier with how they performed and how they handled everything start to finish. They were communicative from the time I hired them, they had a huge setlist to pick from, and they really read the vibe of the room. They even let me sing with them for a few songs!! Every wedding guest said that they were the absolute best!

Our Wedding Day

Thank you so much for being a part of our special day. Walking down the aisle to the beautiful music you played was one of the most unforgettable parts of the day. Especially when you learned and played our song - "A Better Place." It felt like time stood still during that moment, and we will cherish that memory forever! - Christine and James

Incredible Wedding Band

We truly could not have asked for a better wedding band! They absolutely nailed our vibe and kept the energy up all night long. The playlist felt very tailored to our style and every song flowed seamlessly. Everyone we've spoken to since the wedding has commented on how great the band was. No Standards made our wedding unforgettable and we can't recommend them enough!!!

Best band around!

If you’re looking to book a live band I suggest considering No Standards. Not only are they a very talented group, they are professional, easy to work with and great entertainers. They perform during the ceremony and cocktail hour as a string triplet, played full live sets and DJ’ed during breaks. They executed special planned requests from us and requests from guests during the party. Can’t say it enough times, they really are the best.

Couldn't recommend them enough!

This band is so awesome. In every way. They performed our first dance song and made it a slowed-down version of the actual song and it was PERFECT. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how great the music was. They are also fantastic with communication and were so patient with us as we worked through the music choices for our big day. They made our wedding night an absolute blast and I am so happy we hired them.

Best wedding band ever!

The most amazing wedding band! So talented and nice, everyone loved them and still talks about the band! The band was so much fun and they even loved when our priest got up and rapped while they played! 100% recommend not only for events but also to go see them play all over NY and NJ!

No standards "made our wedding"

No standards was our dream wedding band. They were a pleasure to work with from start to finish and helped us customize the perfect wedding playlist for us. They even learned a few songs for us to make it even more special! What a dream to get to walk down the aisle (for me!) to Hands Down by Dashboard Confessional on the violin, cello and guitar-- beautiful. And they even learned a super niche Say Anything song (I want to know your plans) which was our first dance song. We had so many people tell us after the wedding how much they enjoyed the band and that it "made the wedding" which we couldn't agree more. They did essentially an hour of "Emo night" to end the wedding and it got all our friends on the dance floor belting out each song together which was also our dream ;), after they'd played some more typical wedding songs to satisfy our non-emo fan guests earlier in the night. But truly, they will create whatever experience you want. And if you are especially looking for the "not your typical wedding band" or your dreams as they advertise themselves, they are that band. And also wonderful humans. Thank you No Standards! We wish we could get married again so we could have you play again too!

Your guests will thank you

Can't say enough great things about Steve and the entire No Standards crew. They were incredibly communicative throughout the entire process, catered to our needs re: vibes, playlists/songs, run-of-show, etc., and put on a tremendous concert that had everybody on their feet the entire night. They made our special day even more special, and now our family and friends are booking them for birthday parties and other events. 10/10!

Unforgettable Entertainment – No Standards Made Our Wedding Magical!

We had the absolute pleasure of having No Standards as our wedding band, and they completely MADE our reception! From the very first song to the last encore of the night, they brought unparalleled energy, talent, and joy to our special day.

As a musician myself, and with so many other musicians among our guests, I can confidently say that No Standards exceeded every expectation we had. Their musicality was top-notch, and their ability to perfectly tailor the evening to our vision was incredible. They worked closely with us beforehand, listening to our ideas, offering thoughtful guidance, and even helping us navigate some tricky decisions. Their professionalism and enthusiasm made the planning process not only stress-free but also a lot of fun!

The band performed stunning renditions of our first dance songs, and they even honored a last-minute special request, which meant the world to us. They truly cared about making our day unique and special, and it showed in every note they played.

Our guests are still raving about them—and our wedding! Comments like, "This was the best wedding I've ever been to; the music was incredible!" and "Where did you find this band? They were amazing!" kept pouring in. The dance floor was packed all night, with people of all ages having the time of their lives. At moments, it felt like we were attending a high-energy concert, cheering and clapping along with everyone else.

It’s hard to put into words just how much energy and musicianship No Standards brought to the evening. They kept the party alive and made every moment unforgettable. If you’re considering them for your event, stop thinking and book them—you won’t regret it! They gave us a night beyond our wildest dreams and made our wedding truly one for the books.

Thank you, No Standards, for being the heart and soul of our celebration. We couldn’t have done it without you!

Melanie and Antonio Rodriguez, the ecstatic bride and groom 🎉

From First Date to Forever: No Standards Made Our Wedding Unforgettable!

No Standards is the wedding band you need to book if you want your big day to be unforgettable! From start to finish, their professionalism, communication, quality of services, and overall value were absolutely top-notch.

This band holds a special place in our hearts—I took my wife to see them many years before our wedding on one of our first dates. We both said, “If we ever get married, we want them to play at our wedding.” Many moons later, we made it happen, and we loved every single minute of it!

They went above and beyond to make sure every detail we envisioned was included—and then some! They didn’t just meet expectations; they blew them out of the water. From learning two incredible songs just for the wedding (which they nailed), to letting my dad chant "Scotty Doesn’t Know" and then jumping right into it—it was amazing.

The energy they brought to the reception was unmatched. They ended the night with "Killing in the Name" (as I had requested, despite it being unconventional for a wedding), and people are still raving about the show they put on.

Even during quieter moments, like the cocktail hour and dinner, the background music they provided was beyond perfect—it captured everything I had asked for and still managed to surprise me in the best way. And when my best man included a bit of "On the Way Down" by Ryan Cabrera in his speech, they seamlessly played the song afterward—it was such a thoughtful touch that added so much to the moment.

Hopefully, when we catch them live in the future, they’ll surprise us with our wedding song (Scene One – James Dean & Aubrey Hepburn by Sleeping with Sirens). That would be the cherry on top of an already unforgettable experience.

Thank you, No Standards, for making our wedding day as unique and special as we hoped it would be. You’re simply the best! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
