    Best wedding band ever.

    Worth every penny. We wanted a great party, and they gave us that and more. Almost every guest was on the dance floor. The groom ripped his pants dancing. We had a blast.

    So many of our friends and family members said it was the best wedding band (and we definitely agree).

    Amazing! Couldn’t ask for better! Everyone was on the dance floor.

    Amazing!!! Everyone was on the dance floor even the people who never dance at other weddings. We still here how wonderful they are and about certain songs. The band leader promised no one would be on there phone and everyone would be on the dance floor and he was right. The only time people were on their phone was to take videos of the band. He did the lighting and Photo Booth as well and it was awesome!

    The Heartbeats's reply:

    Jillian,
    Thank you for such a nice review. It was a great party. We wish you and Matt all the best in the future. Thank you for having us.

    The absolute best wedding band... EVER!! 5 Stars across the board!

    I don’t even know where to begin. But if you are looking for a live band, look no further. Nick and the Heartbeats were INCREDIBLE. I honestly think they made my entire reception. Every single guest said how amazing they were.

    They went above and beyond, the dance floor was honestly packed the entire time. The talent this band has is unmatched. We did the full band 12-15 people, and it could not have been better. The range of voices, the liveliness, everything, was truly fantastic.

    I could go on and on about how great they sounded and how much fun they made my special day. Nick also is such a great guy so easy to talk too and really listens to you.

    We also had a piano and sax for our cocktail hour, and it was such a great touch.

    The heartbeats have it all and I would not look any further. I will forever recommend them to all future brides.

    Absolutely Incredible!

    Nick and his team were incredible and got everyone up on the dance floor. Our guests could not believe how talented they were and how long they played. All of our guests commented how they felt like they were at a concert as the band played a solid 4 hours with out stopping. We had the best night dancing thanks to this band. They were very affordable and extremely talented!

    Book The Heartbeats!!

    The Heartbeats performed at our May 2, 2021 wedding in Gladstone, NJ and they were beyond incredible! Even over a month later, we are getting calls telling us that The Heartbeats were the best band they ever heard. It truly felt like we were at a concert. The band read the crowd and played all different types of music. Our guests hardly ate their food because they were too busy dancing to the incredible music. Would recommend them without questions!

    The Gold Standard for Wedding Bands

    The Heartbeats are the gold standard for wedding bands. They played everything from Bocelli, to Bruce Springsteen, to Lady Gaga – and brought the house down with every song. It really is true that the music is the most important variable for a successful wedding, and I can’t imagine anyone bringing it harder than Nick and crew. As great as the music was, all the logistics for song selection, bridal party details, and getting the band locked in were equally easy. A few of my engaged friends who were in attendance already signed them up for their upcoming weddings – and I can’t wait to see them in action again. A must hire.

    Nick and the Heartbeats were tremendous. The Dance Floor was always filled with very happy wedding guests. The band truly made the wedding a party. The entire band ensemble added to the evening's success. Their music selections were on point. There is a great amount of talent in the band and their strengths were very evident throughout the evening. The guests were in awe of the band and the compliments I received for Nick and the Heartbeats were nothing short of amazing. Thank you Nick and the Heartbeats for setting the stage for a memorable and fun wedding! I highly recommend Nick and the Heartbeats!

    WOW! I was blown away by The Heartbeats - I have never seen a wedding band that comes close to these guys. Our guests couldn't stop telling us how they felt like they were at a concert - everyone danced all night!!! What talent, what a great song selection, so many amazing voices, fantastic lighting, horns and all - it was amazing! Nick was so kind and great to work with, and they were so flexible about letting my friends and I perform a song at the reception. The songs they played were dance-able and not overdone - every selection made me smile. I loved they way they had dance sessions throughout the dinner service as well to keep the party moving. Live music was so important to me, and there is nothing as wonderful and an amazing band that rocks the house. They exceeded my expectations, they were so, so, so, good and made our event a fun, joyous celebration. Book them early for your wedding, they are SO worth it!!!

    Words cannot express how happy we are to have the Heartbeats perform at our wedding! I wanted to dance the night away and they made that happen. They made our dreams come true with a fog machine during our first dance that looked like we were dancing on a cloud. They took one 15 minute break which was perfect so everyone could sit and eat dinner, especially us. We highly recommend the Heartbeats and cannot wait to see them perform again!

    We loved the Heartbeats! They are incredibly talented and played all of our requested songs well. Several of our guests commented that our band was one of the best that they have heard at a wedding. Their music selection was great and they kept everyone dancing the entire night. We would absolutely recommend the Heartbeats to others. They were a great value.

    Nick & the Heartbeats were absolutely fantastic at our September 2015 wedding. I really can't say enough good things about how professional the whole group was to work with. Nick even assisted with and set up a string band for our ceremony, a pianist for cocktail hour, and a DJ for the after party and we didn't have to worry about anything!! Our guests are still raving about how fantastic the music was and everyone was dancing! The Heartbeats even improvised when we experienced a short power outage during the end of our reception to continue to keep guests entertained, and even stayed later than arranged to play for our guests when the power came back on!! We really couldn't have asked for a more caring and professional band at our wedding- The Heartbeats did everything to ensure our wedding was perfect!!

    We had the Heartbeats at our wedding last night. I can't begin to say enough wonderful things about their performance.. The music was great!! Nick was an excellent MC. He was able to get everyone up and dancing...even the non-dancers. My daughter did not want a band. After speaking to Nick, she was excited about hearing them. By the end of the night...my daughter was raving about them as was all of our guests. Nick is very accommodating. He will play whatever you want. I had asked him to play a few of my favorite song but told him to "go with the flow" . By the end of the night all of my songs had been played. I can say enough good things about the band. THEY ARE WONDERFUL!!!!!

    The Heartbeats were the reason our wedding was such a fun time! Guests raved about our wedding band all night and into the days after! They were all amazing and their energy was contagious! Every single guest was up on the dance floor! Nick was easy to communicate with, very professional, and flexible to any special requests! We could have listened to them all night long! I can't say enough good things, hire them and you will not be disappointed!!

    Do yourself a favor and just book them. Right now.

    I am not kidding when I say EVERY. SINGLE. GUEST. is STILL talking about "your amazing wedding band" / "best wedding band I have ever heard in over 15 years of attending weddings" / "where did you find them" / "how can they sing Italian opera but also rap?" Yes, you heard that last one right!

    The Heartbeats are THE reason that our wedding was amazing! Our wedding had about 105 guests, which isn't that large, and I was really nervous that the dance floor would be empty a majority of the night and some of the older people and/or newer faces wouldn't want to get up and dance. I've seen that too often at other weddings. I was seriously having dreams about this. With The Heartbeats playing that couldn't have been farther from the truth! Not one moment was the dance floor empty. Even my in-laws were dancing (and my husband and brother in law were SHOCKED - in 30 years they have never seen their parents get up and dance..imagine!)

    I can't pick a most memorable moment because there were so many. Here are some of my favorites!
    -Nick singing our first dance song, and sounding EXACTLY like Elvis
    -Tricia singing "Let It Go" and me actually enjoying that song... only an hour later to start RAPPING Nicki Minaj's part in "Bang Bang" and KILLING IT!
    -Nick singing "Con Te Partiro" by Andrea Bocelli in front of my husbands family (they are from Sicily) and them giving him a standing ovation
    -Wrapping up the night with "Don't Stop Believing" like you've never seen it before! Nick in the middle of the dance floor with EVERY GUEST jumping and singing along!! Total mosh pit moment! Guests chanted "ONE MORE SONG!" for 5 minutes even after the venue lights turned on!

    A million thank you's to The Heartbeats for an INCREDIBLE night that I will NEVER forget!!! You all made this night so special and amazing not only for us, but all of our guests! Can't wait to renew my vows so I can have them play for us again!

    The Heartbeats were the band at my cousin’s wedding 3 years ago. We remembered having a great time and kept them in mind when we got engaged. We went to one of their showcases in their studio and they blew us away! Nick was very professional, quickly answered emails, and was very friendly. The Hearbteats have a song list which includes over 1,800 songs!

    We used the Heartbeats for our ceremony music where they learned our requested bridal processional and recessional songs without any problems. We also used them for our cocktail hour music, reception, and their LED uplighting package. The uplighting was tastefully done and really made the room pop and our guests say “Wow!” Nick and the Heartbeats had our guests on their feet all night long and were really able to get a feel from the crowd over which genre of songs were working and which ones didn’t. All of our guests have raved about how amazing our band was and I would recommend The Heartbeats to anyone looking for a great wedding band that will have your guests and you dance the night away!

    Planning a wedding is hard and stressful. Do yourself a favor, book the heartbeats and I can tell you right now, you can get married in a shoebox without food or drink and your wedding will still be ranked in your family and friends' top 5 events of all time. This band is that good.

    The Heartbeats performed at our wedding in Cape May in September and they were amazing!!!
    We have received so many rave reviews from our guests, many said it was the best wedding they ever attended. What a talented group of performers and so much fun! Nick really read the crowd well and the dance floor was packed the entire night! We also had a special request for a different version of our wedding song, which was a bit last minute. They had no problem accommodating us and the song was perfect. I can't say enough good things about this band!
