    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.

    Talented musicians - Customer Friendly!

    The Dapper Gents had a great setlist for playing at the wedding ceremony and cocktail party. However, when we asked them to learn two more songs, they agreed right away. Easy to work with and very talented....

    Made our day magical

    Can’t say enough good things about working with Jacob from dapper gents. He reached out to us after we had inquired with another musician who our friends had used who was already booked and expressed that he was available for our date. We hired Jacob to do singing and acoustic guitar through our ceremony and cocktail hour and then switched over to being our DJ for the reception. His voice and skills and unreal and he really made our day so special. He was willing to learn multiple songs that we wanted to have played and was a breeze to work with. He was great with communicating his pricing was very fair for how wonderful he was. Cannot recommend him enough! Thank you Jacob from the bottom of our hearts!

    Amazing wedding night music!

    My husband and I picked to have Danny and Jake at our wedding after falling in love with them listening them play regularly in Portland when we first moved here. We hired the Dapper Duo, Danny and Jake to play the music for our ceremony and cocktail hour and then they DJ'd our reception. They did a great job and everyone loved the music all night long. It was so special to have them play an acoustic version of the ceremony music as well as our first dance, and then Jake had the crowd dancing from the time the reception started until the final song. We would highly recommend them as your wedding band!

    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!

    Easy to work with and incredible talent!

    The Dapper Gents were a pleasure to work with and made our wedding day so special. We especially loved their versions of songs we chose for dances. All our guests loved their music and we were on our feet dancing all night! Couldn't have asked for a better band to work with, their flexibility and communication was excellent. Thank you!!

    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.

    We couldn't of had a better experience with the Dapper Gents. Jacob did a great job as MC all night and never let me worry about anything. They played beautifully for our ceremony and brought an amazing energy to our reception. All of our guest loved their performance and, as the bride, I never wanted to stop dancing!

    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!!!

    Perfect Wedding Band

    My wife and I hired the Dapper Gents to play our wedding in Searsport, ME. They were well worth the money. Our guests loved the band and danced to every song. They kept the night lively and exciting. I would highly recommend them to anyone!

    Absolutely Recommend!

    We were thrilled to have Jake and the Dapper Gents perform at our wedding this July up in Wiscasset, Maine. Despite needing to push our wedding out a year as a result of the pandemic, Jake remained flexible, reachable and a joy to connect with as we went about re-planning our big event. We ended up having Jake and Danny as a string duet for the ceremony and cocktail hour, both of which they nailed! They even perfectly learned a handful of songs for the day, including an unreal cover of 'Rihanna - We Found Love'. After dinner we pivoted to having Jake DJ for the dancing. We had a pretty good feel for the specific jams our guests wanted to party to and Jake was truly accommodating as we worked through playlists and do-not-plays. He even made sure my 3-year-old niece got to hear and perform to her favorite song "Bubble Butt" surrounded by our laughing guests before she retired for the evening. All in all it was a perfect day and a huge part of that was thanks to the super-talented Dapper Gents. We absolutely recommend!

    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!!

    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!!

    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 throughout the whole experience helped everything go so smoothly so that we could all just relax and enjoy the special day. Many of our guests told us afterwards that our wedding was "the most fun" wedding they've ever been to-- we know we have The Dapper Gents to thank for this!

    Amazing duo

    We were psyched to have the Dapper Gents play at our wedding. They really are top notch musicians but also very down to earth people. Jacob was very accommodating throughout the process and everyone raved about the music. We love them!!

    The Dapper Gents were awesome! Guests of all ages commented on what a great band we had at our wedding. We had the cellist and acoustic guitar duo for the ceremony and the full band for the reception. They are very talented and a good value as well.

    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 playlist (that we got to have a voice in the selection) that got everyone on the floor and kept the energy high all night long.

    The talent and dedication of The Dapper Gents made our wedding truly special. We’re so grateful for their amazing work. If you’re looking for a fun and professional group to elevate your event, look no further than The Dapper Gents!

    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.

    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 our music taste, but also got everyone on the dance floor. They came with such great energy and helped to make our night amazing.

    10/10 recommend!!

    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!!

    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!

    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!
