Gabrielle Sent on 08/11/2024Exceeded Expectations
When we first started planning our reception we did not even consider a band. Then when we booked a traditional music spot as the venue we thought we would go for it since it was perfectly set up for a band. After scouring instagram for every wedding and bar band that plays in and around the Jersey Shore, we were confident that we should pursue Almost Easy for our reception entertainment and we are absolutely thrilled we did!
From beginning to end they were so fun and put on a fantastic show! MC Lou was the perfect vibe! They made us feel special and did exactly what we wanted which was to have a really fun reception party. They truly made the night special. Wish we could give more than 5 stars! -

WOW! The one thing my husband and I insisted on for our wedding was an outstanding band that could keep the party going all night and boy did Almost Easy deliver! It's been over a week since our wedding and we still have people telling us how impressed they were by the band and how much fun they had dancing. Aside from being incredibly talented, and playing so many different types of genres of music, Almost Easy was professional, easy to communicate with, accomodating, and kind. Would hire them all over again if I could! -

Carol Sent on 10/23/2023Amazing band!
My daughter hired this band for her wedding after hearing them at her cousins wedding. They are an amazing band who had everyone on the dance floor the entire night! The dance floor was so packed people were dancing by their tables. Worth every penny, including the additional sax player. Would hire them again in an instant! -

Jennifer Sent on 12/19/2022Almost Easy - Just Amazing!
We hired Almost Easy for our Corporate Holiday Part of over 1100 people in Atlantic City. The experience was easy from start to finish. They are professional and the party was fantastic. They showed up early and were ready to go in plenty of time. The band was absolutely the best and the dance floor was full from start to finish. They made the party so much fun and definitely an unforgettable night. The DJ they provided for the after party kept the party going and was amazing. We still had at least 350 people left at the end of the night that didn't want the party to stop. I can't say enough great things about Almost Easy and. I highly reccomed them! -

Almost Easy was incredible. They worked with us to ensure the setlist was exactly what we wanted; learned songs not already on their extensive song list; and were simply amazing. Could not recommend them more! -

James Sent on 10/30/2022An Incredible Experience
Having Almost Easy to help us celebrate our special day was a huge highlight of our wedding day. As a musician myself, finding a live band was hands down the most difficult part of planning our reception. Almost Easy was exceedingly professional every step of the way, and accommodated every request that we had. The musicians are seasoned professionals, and their material reflects a dedication to their craft. The group is original enough to have a distinct personality, yet familiar enough to get even the most conservative people up and dancing. The number one piece of positive feedback from friends and family regarding our wedding day has been how amazing the band was, and how much energy it brought to our reception. There was also an incredible value to hiring Almost Easy, as they provided the emceeing as well as the lighting for the reception, which saved us from having to hire more vendors to fill those roles. I cannot stress enough the energy and atmosphere that Almost Easy brought to our wedding day. -

Robert Sent on 12/07/2021This organization is the Best!
Almost Easy was represented by The Almost Easy Too Band at my daughter’s wedding. I must say that a better band could not of played the wedding. The entire crowd would not sit down and remained dancing the entire night. Dave our DJ was just as exceptional and finished the night up on a high note and left us wanting more. Thanks again for a night none of us will ever forget! -

Linda Sent on 10/11/2021Best wedding band ever!!
Wow, wow wow!! This band is amazing!! We originally hired Almost Easy because we saw them at a wedding and thought they were great but because of Covid we had to delay the wedding for a year. They were booked for the date that was available so we booked Almost Easy Too. They were beyond fantastic. The dance floor was filled for the entire party. At the end of the party everyone was chanting one more song like it was the best concert of their lives. We got the 8 piece band along with the DJ. Don’t hesitate and book them before it is too late!! -

Almost Easy was the best decision we made for our wedding! They maintained the most incredible energy the whole night, 90% of guests never left the dance floor. They are an extremely talented group and work so well together. Truly a great experience working with the entire team. They are professional rockstars! -

Cynthia Sent on 07/15/2021The whole experience was awesome. They played exactly what I wanted and then some. My guests and Bridal Party can not stop talking about Almost Easy.
I have been a loyal fan of the lead singer and his previous band for many years. It's no different with Almost Easy ,I've been a loyal fan since Day 1!! They are now a 5 Star Wedding Band and If I could, I would give them way more. The versatility of the artists in the Band is beyond compare. Some might say their performances out show the originals !!! The DJ that accompanies them was amazing. He fullfilled every request and knew what we wanted l to hear, even if it wasn't requested. I would 100 % tell everyone to have them at their Wedding! They really make the day feel like a dream come true!!! Coincidentally I mentioned to my fiance(now husband) , that it would be a dream come true to have them play our wedding. Thank you Almost Easy and hubby for making this Girls dream come true !!! -

Nancy Sent on 02/14/2020WOW! Your search is over!
Booking this band was the very best decision of my personal and professional career. I have been an event planner professionally for over 20 years and this band is just incredible. We have booked them 3 years in a row for our annual Christmas gala that we have every year for family and friends. Our guests never want to leave and cannot wait to come back the following year. Not only is the music great but they are great people to work with besides. Strongly recommend them for your wedding or any event that you would enjoy live music. This band really knows how to get the party started and how to bring it through the night for everyone--no matter the age. -

Kevin Sent on 11/17/2019Believe all the 5 star reviews!!!
We couldn't have asked for more energy and professionalism. Incredible voices, top notch sound, and the MC kept the night moving along without being intrusive. They really personalized the night’s playlist based on our preferences. The range that they covered included classics for the older folks all the way to current pop and rock hits. And they nailed every single one! We had all kinds of musicians and music lovers in our crowd, and every one of them was blown away. We loved them so much, we’ll definitely continue seeing them when they play down the shore during the spring and summer!Almost Easy Entertainment's reply:
Thanks so much Kevin, your positive feedback is much appreciated! We’re glad you had a great experience with us. All the best to you both!

Erin Sent on 10/23/2019Stole the show
Almost Easy is a band we fell in love with back at Just Jakes in Montclair, a local spot for us! They crush every song and you can really see how they elevate any crowd. We met with plenty of companies with musicians and nothing clicked. We prayed that Almost Easy would be available/able to make our wedding come to life- and luckily they were! Not only did they give us an entire booklet of songs they know ( seriously the best list ever + it was impossible to give them even top 10 of what we love to hear). But they learned our songs. I was totally surprised and shocked that the day of our wedding- they sang all our first dances which was not in their book of songs they knew. already. They also took our instrumentals next level during the ceremony. I requested again, songs they did not offer. Yet they pulled off the instrumental of Yellow Card, Lee Brice, and Fleetwood Mac. It was perfection. My entire family/friends are still talking about the band and will probably head over to Just Jakes to get some more of it! If you are looking for a band that can do it all- they are your people. I did not leave the dance floor all night. It was too hard to. Even moments I snuck off to the photo booth, I knew I had to make my way back. They also played a RHCP mashup that was unreal and I will never forget it. Thanks guys, you truly made our night perfect. Can't wait to see them going forward at Just Jakes!Almost Easy Entertainment's reply:
Hannah, we had a great time performing for you and your guests. Thanks so much for having us provide our services for your big day!

Hannah Sent on 10/18/2019Dancing all night long!
My husband and I are not typically ones to dance, but with this band we couldn't help it. Everyone was on the dance floor all night long. Almost Easy was FANTASTIC. Every single song was a great song. Almost Easy learned two different songs for our wedding in particular - both they performed spectacularly and it was really, really special. My husband says it was a little bit like being at a concert, except for that they were playing only our favorite songs. I cannot recommend them more!Almost Easy Entertainment's reply:
Hi Hannah, thanks so much for the kind words. We’re always glad to know we played such an important part of the big day! All the best!

Michelle Sent on 09/18/2019Excellent experience! 9/15/19 wedding
Super energetic and easy to work with. Almost Easy had everyone on the dance floor! The band and DJ were phenomenal and even played Hebrew music at the ceremony and reception (DJ). The pipes on Peter and Bethany are unmatched-- they sounded incredible together. Joe was easy to reach and executed our exact vision the way we wanted. We can't thank them enough.Almost Easy Entertainment's reply:
Hi Michelle,
Thanks so much for having us, we had a great time performing for your awesome guests!

Ellen Sent on 08/06/2019Almost easy was incredible
My wife, family, and I could not be happier with our decision to hire Almost Easy for our Wedding on August 1st, 2019. Every one in this band was professional, courteous, and most of all extremely talented musicians. Joe was our main point of contact there, and he was extremely easy to work with, and more then willing to accommodate any special request.
When I first got to my wedding venue, and saw the band set up I was blown away with the amount of professional equipment they had, including a full light show. I knew from that moment on these guys were a great choice! The band came with their own sound man, and MC who was able to entertain us the whole night long.
Almost Easy played a great variety of music, and all of our guests were very happy with the songs! They can play oldies, classic rock, jazz, and dance music, and do a great job blending all the varieties. What I want to drive home to anyone reading this is... One complaint you always get at other weddings is that the DJ is always too loud and you cannot hear yourself talk/think. We too were worried about this, because we wanted our guests to feel comfortable the entire time. That being said - Almost Easy blended their sounded PERFECTLY to the room. They were NEVER too loud. We received great reviews on the band following the wedding.
The nice thing about Almost Easy, is they play frequently throughout NJ, so you can check them out before taking the next step. (I found this very rare for other wedding bands we looked into.) Support this band - they are great! I know we will be watching them play live in the future. I only hope I will be invited to a wedding where they are playing !
Thank you again guys !

Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts! We are always thrilled to hear such positive feedback!

Melanie Sent on 01/24/2019Hire them now before it⠹s too late!
STOP WHAT YOU’RE DOING AND HIRE THEM BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE! Your music is the only thing people will remember at any wedding, seriously. Music is compromised of 80% if your guests will have fun at your wedding, so look no further! Almost Easy had everyone on the dance floor the entire night, our guests have not stopped boasting about them, and neither have we! Almost Easy is like no other typical wedding band, they don’t read off of an easel and have a specific set of songs that’s played at every wedding...they rock out to every genre of music and kill it! They are the true definition of artists who will have any crowd dancing their pants off, singing along AND requesting an encore. Their creativity is second to none, how they pulled off a special request I wanted for my husband (a clip from a movie) I will never know...it was better than I ever imagined! The energy Almost Easy provides in undeniable, and quite frankly the single best decision we made for our wedding, and will be for you, too!Almost Easy Entertainment's reply:
Thank you Melanie! It was a great way to ring in the New Year celebrating with your guests. We had a blast doing the riff off! -

Alison Sent on 11/25/2018Amazing Band!
From the very beginning of our wedding planning, my husband and I knew we wanted a band, we wanted that level of entertainment no DJ could possibly give. We started our search and went to see a few bands live, but nothing felt right. Back to the drawing board and we found Almost Easy. We reached out and Joe & Pete invited us to check them out at their rehearsal space in Staten Island. Shortly after this visit, the band put us on a guest list at Just Jakes in Montclair so we could see how they perform live and how they work the crowd. We knew we had found the right band for our wedding! We worked with both Pete & Joe over the course of several months. We had requested the band learn an acoustic version of Safe and Sound by Capital Cities for our first dance. We were a little worried about our choreographed first dance (as we were never able to practice to the Almost Easy arrangement), but we were able to run through it a time or two in the ballroom with the band while the guests enjoyed cocktail hour – when it was time for our first dance everything worked out perfectly! The band also learned the songs we chose for our father/daughter and mother/son dances, which was a nice touch! Throughout the night, Almost Easy played 3 sets, all of which included our requested 10 or so songs and they did the rest! They did a great job of getting all guests on the dance floor – and keeping them there! We couldn’t believe the amount of compliments we received on behalf of the band. Guests were raving about how amazing the band was – “the best they’ve ever seen at a wedding.” It is no exaggeration when we say that we received endless compliments the night of, the day after, week after and even to this day on our choice of wedding band. Almost Easy was great to work with and were flexible on custom packages and pricing. We look forward to seeing them play live at local bars and reliving our wedding night all over again!

Stacy Sent on 09/25/2018We cannot give Almost Easy enough positive praise! From the moment we reached out to to the band, Joe was patient, thoughtful, and accommodating. Aside from their professionalism- they are incredibly talented and nail every. single. song. on their list! If you're considering Almost Easy, do yourself a favor, save some time, and just book them!! -

Ashley Sent on 10/15/2014If I could give Almost Easy 10 stars I would. They were my favorite part of our wedding and everything about our wedding wound up being perfect. They were the one thing our guests could not stop talking about...so much so that one of our guests wound up booking them for their wedding next year.
They were so professional throughout and learned all the songs we had asked them to. They did both our ceremony and our reception and both were flawless. Our dance floor was packed from the second they came on to the very last song. I cannot say enough good things about this band. We looked high and low for the perfect band that could play a mix of everything from oldies to classic rock to modern pop, country, even rap...you name it, they can do it and they can do it well. Not only that, they were extremely reasonable for the level of talent you are receiving. Every guest young and old told us how great our band was. So thank you to the band for making our night everything we could have imagined and more. They certainly made the party! -

Wedding Reception turned ROCK SHOW
We initially heard Almost Easy at a friend's wedding last summer and were left exhausted from dancing the night away, so my (now) husband had to grab their business card to get in touch once we were wedding planning and I am so grateful he did! Joe, his team, and Andrew our DJ/MC were so incredible to work with leading up to the wedding and made it clear that what we wanted to hear would be priority. We both love classic rock, mo-town, and punk rock, and MAN did this band deliver. With a wedding of about 170 guests, we had an absolutely packed dance floor the whole night and we truly did not want it to end. My husband is a drummer himself, and Joe was extremely accommodating to have him play a song with the band which was a hit with our guests! Such a hit that they demanded he play an encore! It has been a few weeks since the wedding (10/22/23) and we have not stopped looking back at all of the videos/photos from the night! Almost Easy took a standard wedding reception and created a full-blown concert for our guests and we would not have wanted it any other way! We would recommend Almost Easy in a heartbeat if we are ever asked for music recommendations in the future, and would hire them without question if we have another big event! -
