The best ever!

Sheer talent, and simply incredible people. The business made our wedding day one for the books. They played to the crowd, made the first dance remarkable, and were a JOY to work with. Even during rescheduling due to Covid, Dan was accommodating, reachable, and made me feel relaxed and happy knowing the entertainment was in great hands! Dan even helped us find cocktail hour entertainment that fit the Sinatra sound my father wanted. The band is not only talented with their voices, but they interact with the guests in such a fun way making the event personal and so much fun! They also help move through your reception with their strong MC skills so you have nothing to worry about. They worked super well with our venue, the Lucy by Cescaphe so that everything was seamless. I cannot recommend them enough!

5 Stars All Around!

We are huge fans of The Business and were extremely excited to book them for our wedding reception after seeing them perform many times down the shore. We had very high expectations and they exceeded all of them - Everyone danced the entire night and we received *many* compliments about them afterwards. Danny and the entire band are extremely professional and FUN. They will have everyone on their feet the entire night. They also learned a song a couple weeks prior to the wedding for the Mother and Groom dance. Book them if they are available!!! You will not regret it! :-)

Amazing! Would hire them again in a second.

We completely owe the fun atmosphere of our reception to The Business! They were absolutely amazing! We had a PACKED dance floor all night! The Business got everyone on their feet, sounded amazing and just kept the party going all night long! Having them play at our reception was the best decision we made!! I HIGHLY recommend this band!

The Business was fantastic. The Business did my brother's wedding back in 2011 and they were such a shit, there was no question I was going to book them for my own wedding. Danny was very responsive with every question I had. The Business performed my husband's and I entrance song "Shut Up and Dance by Walk the Moon". They did an amazing job, they performed the song in it's entirety, which got people out on the dance floor with us after we entered. The Business also performed our first dance song "Something by the Beatles" It was lovely! I told Danny I wanted variety and man they gave it. They played every genre of music you can think of that the dance floor was never empty. People were even dancing while we were eating our salads, which I loved. Everyone came up to me that they loved the fact we opened up the dance floor during the salad course. My wedding was on Halloween so The Business performed the Monster Mash for the little kids that were there, which I thought was awesome. Such amazing musicians, you will not be disappointed!

Danny & The Business Productions were absolutely fantastic! I cannot say enough about the caliber of entertainment they provided to us & our guests at our wedding. They provided our ceremony, cocktail, & reception music. Danny was wonderful to work with & the band was just fabulous. They performed our first song - Into the Mystic by Van Morrison - so perfectly that it was as if Van Morrison himself was there. They kept everyone dancing all night long - it made our wedding. I am still receiving compliments from our wedding guests regarding their performance - I highly recommend using The Business Productions!

Whenever we are in need of a band my first and only choice is The Business. Its unfortunate people like to shop around for price and not so much for quality. All I can say is this band is AMAZING. They play music from yesterday and today and everything sounds awesome. They are personable, professional, accommodating and best of all TALENTED. It like buying a tux, you can do to a chain store or you can deal with a small guy. When you have a problem good luck resolving your problem. When you dealing with a small guy they go above and beyond to make sure they do their best, and if you have a problem its resolved. Same thing with The Business. You want to hear a song, they will perform it for you or they will play it via MP3 Player. No matter occasion I highly recommend this band for your special event. One thing I will tell you is that all of your guests will be leaving and saying how great the band was, the food not so much!

We contracted "The Business" to do our annual Homecoming dance at our high school. This event has been going on for the 80 years. I had the pleasure of co-chairing this event and we couldn't have been happier with this band. I have also worked as a wedding coordinator for many many years and know the importance of great music at a wedding. The Business was one of the best bands I have ever heard. I highly recommend them.

The Business was amazing! They had a very full sound and we received compliments all evening on how amazing they were. Very easy to work worth and adapted quickly to the Waterworks venue, even though it was the first time they played there. We highly recommend them!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
