    Greatest Addition to our Special Day!

    Book them!!! In the Blue was AMAZING! They were everything we wanted. So many people have commented on the fact that we had this great jazz band at our wedding. The musicians made all our dreams come true!! They learned at least two new songs for our ceremony that were absolutely perfect!

    Not Just Jazz

    The boys of the In The Blue Jazz Ensemble provided the perfect background music as my guests arrived to our ceremony, playing a mix of pop, jazz, and anything my heart desired.
    During the ceremony, the good tunes continued!
    The Ensemble played during my cocktail hour as well before our DJ took over for the remaining hours of our reception.
    The Ensemble was helpful to make sure I got the tunes I wanted and they were very responsive with any and all my questions.

    In The Blue Jazz Ensemble's reply:

    We are so glad you had a great experience with us and that we played all your favorite tunes! We enjoyed being a part of your big day and are so thankful to have worked with you!

    The Classiest Wedding Ensemble

    In The Blue Jazz Ensemble were great and became a major talking point of our friends and family post-wedding! They added a classy touch to our cocktail hour/reception and even had a connection to a DJ, so it was the perfect all in one wedding package. I'd recommend them for any wedding!

    In The Blue Jazz Ensemble's reply:

    Thanks Marcus! We really enjoyed playing at your wedding. We are happy to hear that your friends and family enjoyed the experience. We wish you and Cathy all of our best!

    Best choice we made for our wedding

    The live music at the ceremony and cocktail hour was one of the best choices we made for our wedding day. The guys were super friendly and responsive, and even changed out a couple of instruments to suit our preferences. Would recommend.

    In The Blue Jazz Ensemble's reply:

    Thanks Rachel! We are so happy we could make an impact on your big day and we were able to customize to your preferences. Congrats again!

    Perfect wedding music

    They were one of the highlights of our wedding, hands down. We had multiple people come up to us throughout the wedding to say how incredible the band was, and both Evan and I were blown away. They had zero issue with our obscure jazz song requests for our wedding and absolutely nailed everything they played. It was only of my favorite parts of my wedding if I’m being completely honest. We would highly recommend them to anyone in search of incredible live music for any occasion.

    In The Blue Jazz Ensemble's reply:

    Thank you so much Hope and Evan! Your wedding was such a fun project for us to work on, we loved bringing in a Trumpet player to really fill out the sound. It was our pleasure to make your big day special!

    Great live music!

    This ensemble was incredible! We had a small wedding but having In the Blue playing at the ceremony and dinner made the night unforgettable. All the guys had a great stage presence and were very personable. They played a number of songs from our customized set list and man were they awesome! The two-piece that provided music for the ceremony made for a perfect atmosphere and we couldn't have asked for more. Tim, the saxophonist, was amazing! Thank you guys!

    In The Blue Jazz Ensemble's reply:

    Thank you, we had a lot of fun playing for you! We really were honored to be a part of your big day. Congratulations!

    Great Band for a Wedding Ceremony

    Great sound and very easy to work with. The guys were very professional and really classed up our wedding reception. Would highly recommend this group

    Flexible, Professional, Fun!

    In the Blue provided us with a great experience. From the beginning, Jake was super friendly, informative, and flexible. They even allowed me to compose/arrange two pieces, which they learned and played for our first dance! Of course, it's 2020, and we had a bit of a COVID scare, but In the Blue was professional and timely in figuring out solutions to keep everyone safe (and flexible when we had to change a billion things because of the ever-changing State Executive Orders). Would definitely use them again and recommend to friends!

    In The Blue Jazz Ensemble's reply:

    Thank you for your review Heather! We really appreciated your flexibility as we navigated some potential COVID-19 challenges as well. I heard from the band that it was a great experience and that it really was special that you arranged music for them to play. We hope your wedding music was as memorable as it was for us too!

    We couldn't have imagined our day without them!

    All we can say is wow! This group from day one had great care in working with us being patient and flexible. When we decided to move our wedding up by 2 months they enthusiastically agreed and even learned songs for us and made special mashups for us! We can't say enough great things about how easy they were to work with, and how talented they are! Book them and I promise you won't regret it!

    In The Blue Jazz Ensemble's reply:

    Thanks Brooke! We also appreciate your flexibility with us as we navigated various challenges related to COVID-19. We are glad that we made great memories for you and that the wedding was a clean/safe environment for all!

    What an incredible experience!

    In The Blue was absolutely amazing! We could not have asked for a better band to play at our wedding and the package with DJ Divergence was perfect. It was such an easy process, even on our extremely customized day. There learned some obscure songs for us and I could not be happier. Book them!!

    In The Blue Jazz Ensemble's reply:

    Thank you Stephen! We enjoyed learning some new tunes for your ceremony. We are glad that you liked our covers of them.

    Go with Jazz

    Not only were they professional, but friendly! The band even learned a new song to play for our first dance, which turned out amazing! They made our wedding day such a memorable experience to not only us but our guest. I highly recommend!

    In The Blue Jazz Ensemble's reply:

    Thanks Alexandria! We always enjoy learning new songs to customize our playlist to make every event unique and memorable for our clients and for us. We hope to see you soon!

    Makes you love Jazz more!

    Wonderful group to work with and listen to during the reception. They were extremely kind, talented and played so professionally with the right amount of background volume. We received so many positive compliments from our guests of how fun the band brought to the reception. The band manager has worked with us through the whole Covid-19 situation with great flexibility and patience. Offered many different options and has a great line of connections to other performers. Book with them and you won’t be disappointed!

    In The Blue Jazz Ensemble's reply:

    Thanks Devin! We are glad that we were able to navigate the postponement process and that you were able to enjoy your wedding night. We wish you well for many happy years ahead!

    Above & Beyond First Dance

    In The Blue did such an amazing job making our wedding memorable. They were so accommodating to our many questions and requests and even went above and beyond to rehearse our first dance song with 2 of our bridal party members who sang our song. We received so many compliments and can't say enough good things! Thank you, In The Blue!!

    In The Blue Jazz Ensemble's reply:

    We really enjoyed your beautiful reception. Your first dance is also one of our favorite memories from the weddings we have been a part of. Thank you again and all of our best to both of you!

    Snyder Wedding 2019

    The band was a hit! We received nonstop compliments on the quality of our music! They also had a DJ, which was great for the night time dance party.

    We would definitely recommend In The Blue to anyone getting married.

    Thanks Alan, we really had a great time helping to get the party started at your wedding! We wish you both all of the best and hope that you will always remember the music from your big day!
