The Ovation Band

The Ovation Band played at our daughter’s June 17, 2023 wedding ceremony and reception at The Lake Club. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but we were worry-free when it came to the musical entertainment for that day. Marc arranged the timeline of events for both the ceremony and reception and led the evening for us. Marc and his team have a passion for music and it shows! Throughout the evening, Marc and other members of the band were on the dance floor interacting with our guests - it made our guests feel like they were part of the show! The music, and the energy behind it, kept the dance floor full all night long. Prior to the wedding Marc met with us and guided us , (with much patience!), with song choices for the ceremony and wedding reception dances. He went above and beyond! Thank you Ovation for making Kaleigh and Ross’ wedding day a dream come true. We couldn’t have done it without you!

This band exceeded all of our expectations. They kept the dance floor packed for 4 hours, and our guests (age 18-93) packed the dance floor. We were told over and over again that this was the best wedding band our guests had ever heard and we totally agree. They are professional, they can read the room, and they are great musicians.

I own an event planning company and was the day-of coordinator for the wedding we worked together! The band was FANTASTIC to work with and very responsive!! They did a great job the night of the wedding and kept everyone dancing!! Thank you for being such great team players and making the reception so much fun!

Ovation recently played at my husband’s birthday celebration where we hosted a party of multigenerational attendees. Aside from the fact that they were prompt and responsive with communication they were also willing and eager to accommodate our musical choices ranging from jazz, rock, R&B and classic standards with finesse, they brought everyone to their feet for a memorable and great evening! Thank you Mark and his band for making this party one we won’t soon forget!!!!

My daughter got married July 14, 2018! I had been looking for a band that was going to have the dance floor packed all night and decided to book with Ovation! We couldn’t have picked a better band! It was exactly what we wanted...the band was excellent, the song selections were appropriate and well known to everyone and the dance floor was filled from the moment dancing began until it was time to turn off the lights and go home! We wish it could have lasted way longer than it was and was dancing for days after! Highly recommended!!

If you are looking for live music for your event, look no further, because The Ovation Band is the premier dance band in the area! From the first few notes they play, you’ll be blown away by their sound! The Ovation Band is professional in every way and knows how to get your guests up out of their seats and on the dance floor making your event one that no one will forget! I am completely confident recommending The Ovation Band for your next party or event! You won’t be disappointed!

The Ovation band was amazing! They were our first choice of wedding bands and worth every penny. They sounded great and the dance floor was packed the entire night. We got so many compliments from the guests about how awesome the band was. They came highly recommend and I would highly recommend them to others!

Very pleasant to work with. True professional musicians. Would book them again and again. You won't be disappointed with Ovation!

Remarkable!

Mark and his band played for our Oct 2017 wedding at Drake's Landing. Working with him was a care free process from beginning to end. We met once in person to establish a timeline for the evening and review song preferences. He was also available by text/email whenever we had any questions thereafter (with prompt replies). The band did everything possible to accommodate our song requests. They even put together a custom arrangement for our father/daughter dance and were willing to learn a couple songs not on their set list.

The reception itself flowed flawlessly. We did not have a coordinator for the evening, so Mark made sure we stayed on schedule while acting as our emcee for the night. During the few short band breaks, a seamless transition was made from live band to DJ'd music so that our guests were continuously on the dance floor. Select band members interacted with our guests on the dance floor and throughout the venue while performing which kept the crowd lively all evening.

Most importantly, the quality of the music was impeccable. The vocals were wonderful and the band sounded as if it was composed of high quality musicians.

You won't go wrong with choosing this band for your event, especially for one of your most memorable ones. We are truly happy that we did.

Ovation is hands down THE best wedding band out there! All of our wedding guests had an absolute blast dancing to the wide variety of music they played. We met with Marc once before our wedding and he was so easy to work with and such a nice guy! Nobody ever left the dance floor (except for when we cut the cake)! I would recommend Ovation to anyone looking to book music for their special event!
