About

The Best Wedding Band is a music band based out of New York, New York. Multi-talented singer Gordon Dukes founded the Best Wedding Band. He put together a team of musicians who, between them, all have over 50 years of experience on the band stage. They believe that every wedding deserves the best and, rightfully so, provide services that are nothing short of the same.

Services Provided

They perform different genres of music, including pop, soft rock, Motown, country, standards, rhythm and blues, jazz, and so on. The frontline singers weave beautiful harmonies with powerhouse vocals that make for an eclectic and fantastic rendering. They provide free consultations if you want to express your ideas and put in requests. Although the songs are sung in the original style ( sounds just like the record), they make it fun and exciting, and you and your guests will find it hard to leave the dance floor.

The Best Wedding Band is exactly that, THE BEST!

From our first interaction to the last dance, Gordon and Donnamarie made the entire process seamless. Their experience was recognizable from the start as they guided us through the process, answered all of our questions, and gave recommendations that made the party unforgettable. The band arrived early to set up, the stage was organized and the lights added great ambiance. We requested music for one hour before the cocktail reception as we welcomed guests and took photos. For the party, we chose a list of songs to play and the band filled in the blanks. Gordon is a great MC, directing the flow of the party and he really knows how to read the crowd. 
Gordon and his band are extremely talented musicians, we still have friends and family asking about them. We cannot thank Gordon and Donnamarie enough, we would recommend The Best Wedding Band to everyone and our day would not have been the same without them!

THE Best Wedding Band!

We loved meeting and working with The Best Wedding Band. You can feel Gordon’s amazing positive energy from the second you meet him and it does not stop until the end of the project! The whole band is extremely professional and they always deliver. We liked them so much that we consider them as friends. We wish them the very best and would recommend them unconditionally, not just for weddings but also all kinds of corporate events or celebrations.
