Joe Baracata Band Wedding Review
Joey B blew it up! The Joe Baracata band did an amazing job providing the #1 source of entertainment for mine and my wife's wedding at the Atlantic City Country Club. Leading up to the wedding, Joe was excellent to work with. Very responsive, insightful, and overall a flawless planning experience. Of course, we went over a playlist and it became very clear that Joe knows how to get the party going with a kickass playlist. It was also great that Joe and his band were able to learn two of Katie and I's requested songs prior to the wedding and they turned out awesome. During the wedding, Joe did a fantastic job MC'ing the event and kept the dance floor going all night long. His members were very engaged and their walks out into the dance floor with the guests brought out some unreal energy and dance moves from all. My personal favorite was when Joe played "Shipping up to Boston" as the dance floor engagement was through the roof. the Joe Baracata Band simply crushed it, and was the number 1 vendor/topic discussed by guests after the wedding. If you are having a wedding in NJ, make sure Joe is on your radar! -

The absolute BEST wedding band you will find at the Jersey Shore!
The absolute BEST wedding band you will find at the Jersey Shore! Joe is so personable and accommodating. We met with him before the wedding to plan out the formalities, which was so helpful. Our dance floor was packed the entire night! By the end of the night, not one person was in their seat! Everyone could not stop raving about how amazing they were. From the vocals, to the horns, and everyone in between, Joe Baracata Band was the best choice we made. We can’t wait to continue going to their shows to relive our wedding day all over again! -

Joe Baracata Band has won wedding bands - no other choice! stop scrolling!
The Joe Baracata band is the best wedding band you will find anywhere – they are completely unbeatable. We have been to dozens of wedding over the past few years and heard lots of great bands – and in my opinion there is legitimately no one even close. We first discovered Joe and his band years ago when we would listen to them at venues along the Jersey Shore (Columns, Parker House, etc.) So when it came time to start planning our wedding, the first phone call we made after firming the venue and date was to Joe. And we did not make any other phone calls to any other bands because we knew from years of watching them play that there was no one better, so there was no point – and I can guarantee that they did not disappoint. People who had seen Joe before were already excited that they were coming to our wedding, and afterwards the entire guest list could not stop talking about how incredible they were – even weeks or months later. Joe is absolutely not kidding when he says that they will play the whole time - only stopping for dinner. The dance floor was completely packed the whole time and people were having the time of their life. They were nice enough to learn a few songs that were really important to us and they absolutely crushed their usual hits – also if you are a Bruce Springsteen fan (like many people at our wedding) no one brings The Boss’ energy quite like Joe and the band.
Joe is really invested in putting on a show, playing great music and making your wedding day something people will never forget. He is an incredible communicator and makes everything so seamless.
If you are looking for a wedding band that has experience playing fun/energetic venues so can feel a room, captivate the crowd and turn your wedding into a party like you’ve likely never seen before then there is no need to call anyone else. Joe and the band absolutely brought the house down, as they always do. -

Book Joe Baracata Band now! An amazing band and playlist was the #1 priority for our wedding in Asbury Park, NJ, and we were not disappointed by Joe and his talented group of musicians and singers. Throughout planning, Joe was extremely responsive, accommodating and helpful. Their priority was making sure we had what we wanted for our day, and they made all of our special requests work while giving us advice along the way. Out of all the pieces at our wedding, the band was the most talked about by our guests, and the dancefloor was packed the entire night. They are extremely versatile and crush everything from Bruce Springsteen songs and fun pop/dance songs. You will not regret booking them! Thanks so much to Joe Baracata Band for the best night of our lives! -

Joe Baracata band totally exceeded all our expectations and was just simply the best all around. From the beginning Joe was super easy and great to work with, his prices were reasonable, and he was flexible with payments. He helped customize our song list and even our first dance song which was super special. All members of the band are super talented, happy and clearly love what they do. Our guests are still asking about the band (three weeks later) and we seriously now enjoy going out locally for a few drinks and seeing them play live at different venues. Joe will always have a special place in our hearts and the band helped make our memories from the wedding day legitimately the best ever. -

Joe and the Band are simply perfection!
Growing up at the shore and going to local bars, I was fortunate to see Joe and the band grow over the years and they had always been an all time favorite! When my wife, Devon and I got engaged 10/3/2020, the first thing we did was reach out to Joe! We booked him nearly two years in advance because we knew they were what we wanted to make our wedding night perfect at the perfect venue, The Columns!
They did not disappoint! We already knew they would have people dancing and having fun but we asked Joe to make sure the party didn’t stop and they rocked out! People danced and sang along every minute of the night. The song selections and flow in which they play got family and friends dancing on the dance floor that we never expected to see dancing, it was unbelievable!
They even covered our wedding song to perfection, a song that they had never even played and it brought tears of happiness to our eyes!
If you are looking for a top tier cover band, stop searching and contact Joe! They will not disappoint.
Joe and the band, THANK YOU!

If you're planning your wedding, book Joe today! Joe & his team are absolutely amazing and not only started the party, but kept it going all night for our guests! Everyone from our youngest cousins, to friends, family and grandparents absolutely loved the music Joe played and were on the dance floor all night. Even after the final song, everyone chanted for one more because they were so good! In addition to being great at what he does, Joe is also the nicest guy and a pleasure to work with. He was very responsive and was open to making adjustments if needed per the potential rain delays we faced the day of our wedding. I can't thank Joe enough for making our special day even more amazing!! -

Book now for an epic wedding!
We have been following Joe Baracata Band around the Jersey shore for many years now, and have seen them play at two friends' weddings. So when we got engaged, booking them was an easy choice! I was always one who thought I wanted a DJ at my wedding, up until I saw how epic a Joe Baracata Band reception really was. We have gotten to know Joe and the rest of the band pretty well over the years, and knew we'd be in good hands. During our ceremony, John played beautiful entrance music on the keyboard and then was ready to turn it up at the reception! Joe, Robyn, Pat, Chris, John, Joe, and Albert got all of our guests up and dancing all night long - young and old alike. Several guests even asked when and where they could see them play again! Joe was incredibly flexible throughout the planning process and even learned "We are Family" which brought together both families on the dance floor and is one of our favorite moments! We will forever recommend Joe Baracata Band to anyone newly engaged! Do not hesitate - book them now! -

Joe Baracata Band is the absolute best! We saw them at the Columns before booking for our wedding and we were so impressed. It was even more special having them keep the party going on our wedding day! They kept us and our guests on the dance floor all night and everyone had a blast. Joe and the band are open and communicative. They are so talented and made the process so easy by giving song suggestions and surprising us by playing a few of our favorite songs! Joe Baracata Band is extremely entertaining and perfect for all ages. Our friends and family would not stop raving about how amazing they were. We will never forget our wedding day and will be back on the Jersey Shore to watch them play this summer! -

Their Instagram and Google reviews speak for themselves— Joe & his team are absolutely amazing and know how to not only start the party, but keep it going all night! Not to mention, Joe is also the nicest guy and such a pleasure to work with! Our friends and family can’t stop raving about him and his band- including many anti-wedding band converts! Every single person was on the dance floor from friends, younger cousins, my 2 year old niece, grandparents, family friends, and colleagues. At the beginning, we were on the fence about a band vs. a DJ but thank GOD we went with Joe Baracata Band!! Our reception never could’ve been as much fun without them! -

Honestly all I can really say is book this band!!! They will be the best decision you'll make besides saying yes to your fiancé. I have heard back from every single guest we invited to the wedding about how amazing the band was, how interactive they all are and how talented each member is. They will make your wedding the most memorable day of your life. In the months leading up to the wedding, working with Joe is like calling a friend. He puts you at ease and just solidifies that you know you made the right decision booking him. If I could get married every year and hire them I would!
