    Amazing addition!

    Jacob and Danny's acoustic set was so perfect for our ceremony and cocktail hour! It added a touch of fun class with modern songs mixed in (think Bridgerton vibes ;)). They are wonderful to work with, too!

    Best wedding band ever!!!

    The Dapper Gents were the absolute perfect live band for our wedding. Jake especially is super awesome to work with and has so much experience with the industry that it was completely stress free for us. Our wedding was at a camp on Sebago Lake and The Dapper Gents fit our music vibe to a T. And they DELIVERED. From setting up, ceremony, cocktail hour, to reception everything was so so smooth. Our guests were so impressed with their talent and we spent the entire night dancing. We also highly recommend seeing them live as we discovered them first seeing them live at Bull Feeney’s in Portland. You will no regrets booking this band!!

    10 out of 10 will recommend!!

    So thankful for the Dapper Gents being part of our big day! They played the hits at our reception in Camden, Maine and they had all of our friends and family on the dance floor. Very professional through the whole process with quick email replies and very receptive to our vision and requests. Highly recommend the Dapper Gents for any event!

    Amazing music for all parts of our day!

    My fiancé and I got married at a barn venue in Dayton, Maine on 5/18 and had the Dapper Gents for our ceremony, reception and cocktail hour. We saw them in Portland and loved them right away. They were timely and responsive leading up to the wedding and carefully considered our requests. They also set up a sound system and music stand for my grandma who officiated. Their ceremony acoustic music was beautiful and the cocktail hour music was wonderful in the background. They were able to dj some special requests for first dance/ parent dances then had all our guests dancing for the reception. They really struck a balance between playing our favorites and going with what the...

    Dynamite, adaptable band. Perfect for our NYE celebration!

    The Dapper Gents were the perfect selection for our NYE wedding!! Jake was professional and incredibly easy to work with. The band blended good jams, romantic cello, dancing, and New Year’s Eve perfectly and even went above and beyond to adapt a Hamilton song for a surprise Matron of Honor musical toast! Folks were dancing all night!

    Wonderful Band

    Jacob and his fellow musicians did a wonderful job performing for our wedding in rural Maine. Their live music was a great touch to our intimate setting. We would recommend them to any couples on the search!!

    Wedding Reception of our Dreams!

    We truly had the best experience with The Dapper Gents! They played such an important role in making our wedding so magical and memorable. We knew that music was a priority on our wedding day, and we wanted something special. The Dapper Gents band was everything we could have hoped for and so much more: We had a total blast dancing with our guests all night to their amazing setlist! The Dapper Gents went above and beyond to make our wedding reception all that we dreamed of-- from working with us prior to the wedding to plan out the evening, to accommodating our song requests and playlists, to coordinating announcement making and microphones for speeches. Their professionalism and expertise...

    Excellent Band!

    Loved having The Dapper Gents play at our wedding! Jake was very responsive communicating via email, and everything, from planning to day-of performance, was super smooth. We had them play as a two-piece acoustic band during our ceremony and cocktail hour. Such a perfect addition to our celebration!

    The Actual Best

    The Dapper Gents performed for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception at our wedding in October. I am still so stunned at what an amazing job they did with everything.
    Leading up to the wedding their communication was top notch. Jacob took the time to chat about our vision and his approachable/down-to-earth nature sealed the deal. He both helped with our vision, but also made recommendations along the way.
    They accommodated special requests for the Mother/Son dance, learned (and totally crushed) several songs that are very important to us the the ceremony and first dance, and then their whole set list for the night was right on point. They strike a balance of genres that both represented...

    Wouldn't have had it any other way!

    We loved working with these guys! They played custom music for our ceremony and then a wonderful cocktail hour. They made everything a breeze from easy payment to prompt emails to set lists, and acoustics outdoors, these guys know how to wow a crowd and a bride and groom!

    Knocked it out of the park, great choice!

    My husband and I chose The Dapper Gents as our wedding band because of the flexibility of their offering. We knew we wanted a live band because we are pretty big music fans but we also appreciated that some wedding guests just like to dance to pop music. Jake and the Dapper Gents allowed us to have live ceremony music, cocktail hour appropriate music, live band music sets and DJ sets within the reception as a bit of a one stop shop. Jake also learned a custom mash up of Greensky Bluegrass which was amazing. The value of this band is tremendous, we had lots of wedding guests comment on how great they are and they were really a treat. Very talented, very fun over all awesome band!

    Perfect for our backyard wedding!

    The Dapper Gents are so talented and were perfect for our backyard wedding. Guests are still talking about how much they loved them and how fitting they were with our wedding vibe. They were also VERY accommodating and flexible...I am not a great planner and changed the timeline of our night at least 5 times, and every time Jake just said 'Sure! All manageable!'...They even covered Halo by Beyonce for us (which was a pretty last minute request). Hands down would hire them again.

    June wedding

    Dapper Gents MADE our wedding. We knew we loved them from attending their shows at Bullfeeney’s, but it was so fun to watch how much our guests loved them. By the end of the night, it felt like a concert and the crowd was chanting for an encore (which the Dap Gents kindly obliged until we actually needed to get people on the shuttles). Do not hesitate to book them! Your guests of all ages will be dancing all night. They also learned by father/daughter dance request with a relatively short turnaround time and did an amazing job. 10 out of 10.

    Hands down the BEST!

    We couldn’t imagine our wedding day without The Dapper Gents. We have seen Danny and Jake (The Duo) play in Portland, ME many times, and have always loved their style. When we heard the full band play this fall, we knew they were it! Our guests are still talking about how amazing they were. These guys made the party. We are so happy that they agreed to travel to the middle of nowhere western MA to play at our wedding. Only thing we could have asked for was a longer night!

    Jake was very professional and great to communicate with throughout the entire planning process. We were so happy with our experience with The Dapper Gents, and can’t...

    Fun wedding band!!!

    The Dapper Gents (Danny and Jake) played our wedding and they were a major hit!!! I knew live music was a must for our wedding, but wasn't sure they'd be able to travel all the way to Madison,ME for our small wedding... But they were more than willing and super flexible with song choices and schedules for the big day. I thoroughly enjoyed having such a unique duo play the wedding and it made for an amazing wedding day. Thank you Danny and Jake!!

    Incredible Band!

    Every guest at our wedding was blown away by The Dapper Gents’ performance. Multiple people made it a point to tell us they were the best wedding band they’ve seen, and that it was like being at a concert. The band was able to play all of our specific songs for all of our dances and are incredibly easy to work with. Would recommend for any wedding, any venue!

    One of the best decisions

    We couldn’t be happier with The Dapper Gents for our wedding! From the very beginning, their professionalism was evident, and they truly went above and beyond to make our special day unforgettable.

    During the cocktail hour, the band played a beautiful selection of music that perfectly set the tone—elegant yet playful, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for our guests. It was the ideal backdrop as everyone mingled on the lawn of the 1812 Farm (Bristol, ME) and chatted and celebrated.

    For the ceremony, they learned the specific songs we requested. The song, played on the cello, was so beautiful.

    Once it was time to dance, the DJ from The Dapper Gents expertly curated a...

    Book them--You won't be disappointed!!

    Choosing the Dapper Gents for our wedding music was one of the best decisions we made. They were extremely professional. They set up the mics for the wedding and a microphone for a short reading. The music during the ceremony and the music for the cocktail hour were both highlights. And, perhaps most importantly, they kept all of us on the dance floor (entertaining guests of all ages). Book them now! We chose the package of live music for the ceremony and cocktail hour and then DJ for the rest of the night. I love how many packages they offer. I cannot say enough good things about them.

    Wonderful night

    So glad we had the Dapper Gents at our wedding celebration. They are such a great band and fun people, it really brought the whole event together. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for great live music at their wedding. Everyone raved about them afterwards and a they provided great mix of music that fit the vibe.

    They killed it as usual

    It’s been over a year since they played at our wedding, so I apologize to Jake and Danny…..but we saw them play again tonight and they killed it as usual. They played our wedding on 5/7/22, and they were amazing. We had to postpone and reschedule, and they very flexible and easy to work with. Great communication and very personable. Everyone at our wedding was blown away with them. I wanted them to steal the show, and they did! I have been watching them play since my Portland days. I’ve seen them play in Portland, Boston, Portsmouth, and now Dover. If you’re considering hiring The Dapper Gents for any occasion, do it!!!

    Fantastic Wedding Band & DJ!

    The Dapper Gents helped to make our wedding day a great success! They were the perfect mix of professional and fun. Not only did they provide microphone and audio support, they provided live acoustic music for the ceremony and DJ music for dancing. They fit seamlessly into our big day and their wide array of music to choose from helped make our wedding music even more personal and special. We would highly recommend the Dapper Gents for any wedding!

    Had the whole wedding on the dancefloor!

    The Dapper Gents were amazing! They had everyone dancing at some point during the night and just generally awesome to watch them perform. We had so many people talking about them after our wedding. Definitely a highlight for the night. Also they were super easy to work with and nailed our first dance song.
