    Best decision, worth planning around - our guests can't stop raving about The Hook Club!

    If we could give The Hook Club more stars, we would!

    Let me get my one gripe out of the way at the top here: I’m pretty sure the only reason my now husband agreed to a wedding celebration was to hire The Hook Club after seeing them at a friend’s wedding before we met. It was the only part of the wedding planning process he felt truly passionate about from the jump – we knew we wanted them before we even had a venue or date and went so far as to clear our potential dates with them before booking anything else. Fast forward, and Dan made the band planning process so supported and seamless that...

    We love THC!!!

    We absolutely loved working with The Hook Club. Our amazing planner, Greenhouse Events, recommended THC, and we were sold immediately after meeting with Dan. He is super relaxed, nice, and so knowledgable. Dan and THC team made planning super easy for us. They took time to hear about our hopes and helped recommend different band sizes for us. We hadn’t heard of a DJ band before, but loved the idea of some live music with the versatility to play all sorts of music, but our venue wasn’t very big and we also didn’t want to break the bank and hire a huge band. We chose the 4 piece DJ band with singer, sax, drums, and DJ. We knew we...

    Best of The Best!

    We couldn't have been happier with The Hook Club's performance at our wedding! From start to finish, they were absolute professionals. During the ceremony, their music was simply beautiful and added such a special touch to the moment. Even when a few unexpected hiccups came up that were beyond their control, they handled everything flawlessly, keeping the atmosphere calm and magical.

    When it came to the reception, they really brought the energy! Their song selections were on point, keeping all of our guests on the dance floor the entire night. They were also fantastic at accommodating song requests, which made the evening feel even more personalized. The talent of each member of the band was undeniable, and their...

    Hire the hook club

    We had our wedding on 10/4/24, and hiring The Hook Club was hands-down one of the best decisions we made. From the moment we reached out, they were a dream to work with—so organized, professional, and easygoing. Planning with them felt effortless, and they really took the time to understand the vibe we wanted for our big day.

    But the night of the wedding? WOW. They blew us (and all of our guests) away. Their energy was absolutely insane—in the best way possible! They didn’t just play music; they brought the party to life. They were incredibly friendly, super interactive with our guests, and made everyone feel like they were part of the show. It was exactly what...

    If you want everyone to dance and have the time of their life....

    We we're blown away by the Hook Club. Multiple guests came up to me afterwards to say how awesome the band was. My wife and I knew wanted a hybrid Band/DJ situation, and if you're looking for that, absolutely go with the Hook Club. It truly blurs the lines of live performance and studio quality. Sometimes you need a live sax, and sometimes you need the bouncy synths of a Beyonce song. Have you ever wanted to hear 50 Cent's In da Club with live horns? Its perfect for a wedding. Loved working with them, they nailed all our our special requests and kept people DANCING. That's what it's all about

    A highlight of our wedding!

    Hiring the Hook Club was a huge reason our wedding was so successful. They brought amazing energy, a killer set list, and all of our guests raved about how talented they were. We hired a fiddle player for our ceremony and the jazz trio for our cocktail hour and were so happy with this decision – they really knocked it out of the park.

    Dan was a pleasure to work with throughout the process – he was professional, communicative, and gave us invaluable advice throughout the process. For example, he gave very helpful input on our reception structure and timeline.

    We were so happy with our music and highly recommend The Hook Club!

    My Goodness

    There are wedding bands, and then there’s The Hook Club. The minute we heard them at one of their showcase experiences we knew we had found the purveyors of soul and energy that we were looking for.

    The Hook Club played a major role in making our wedding reception an unforgettable celebration. The energy they brought was simply electric and it’s no surprise that we received countless compliments from friends and family about how much fun they had.

    The band was engaging and created a vibrant atmosphere on the dance floor. Beyond their music the band also left us fun messages on our audio guestbook. This extra touch let us know that they aren’t just a band but a group that genuinely loves what they do and who they do it for.

    Must choose this band!

    When my sister went to a wedding with THC a few years ago, she said that this was the most fun wedding she had ever been to and that was because of the band. She loved how they played songs that were special to the couple, that they interacted with the crowd and really had fun throughout the night! When it came time to planning my wedding, I knew I wanted to use them and not the typical NYC bands with no personality. We chose the 13 piece with horns. They were so friendly and organized with a massive, and well thought out setlist & planning sheet.

    They were so great with our special and quirky (and...

    Look no further for the wedding band of your dreams.

    I recently had the pleasure of experiencing the most incredible wedding band performance ever. The energy and enthusiasm they brought to the event were unmatched. Not only did they sound amazing, but they also had everyone on the dance floor the entire night. Their ability to engage with the crowd and keep the party going was truly impressive. If you want to ensure your wedding is a memorable and fun event, this band is an absolute must!

    The best band on earth

    The Hook Club MADE MY WEDDING. I can't even count how many people came up to me asking where I found them and saying it was the best wedding they have ever been to. One friend even said " you have a concert at your wedding". It was the highlight of all of our nights and I am already looking for an excuse to hire The Hook Club Again! They made our night so special, took time to create special mixes for us and brought all of our visions to life! we LOVE The Hook Club.

    We love you The Hook Club!

    Have roughly 200 people showing up to your reception and want to guarantee that everyone from your aunts and uncles to your most particular friend all send you texts about how perfect your wedding band was? Great, you're done with your search.

    We worked with The Hook Club on an ambitious two-day wedding, which included them doing live sound for our Friday welcome party, live sound for the music at our ceremony, some deep cut requests, and our desire to not just have "another wedding band." What we got was an incredibly talented, creative, and kind group of people who were ready to make whatever we wanted happen, ready to add ideas and layers, and who then completely...

    Coolest wedding musicians you can find!

    The Hook Club was by far the coolest musicians I was able to find in terms of having an NYC night out vibe, and not a typical "wedding" vibe. We had a bass and guitar duo for our cocktail hour. They were super nice and awesome musicians. It started raining an hour into our cocktails so we had to move inside, and the bassist switched to playing a piano so that we could continue the music inside. Everyone was so impressed by how multi-talented they were!! Loved them and wish we had them play music for more of our reception. Dan, the founder, as well as the rest of their staff were incredibly organized and attentive throughout the planning process. Highly recommend!!

    Phenomenal!

    The Hook Club was an absolute gem on our special day! This review is wayyyy overdue. Planning our wedding day, we were nervous about music and entertainment for our guests and their kids. Dan and his team have made it a breeze, we love the idea of a hybrid band and DJ. They even had a mini performance for the kids at cocktail hour!!!! Our guest LOVE their “cocktail kids” hour. The music and the band were a cherry on too of our perfect day! We appreciate The Hook Club sooo much!

    Oh! And thank you Dan for making my bubble tea dream come true for dessert! Guests were talking about it for weeks after. We can’t thank you guys enough!

    Run, don’t walk to work with The Hook Club!

    We had a very specific vision for the type of music we wanted played during our ceremony and cocktail hour at our wedding this past August (2023). We spoke to many vendors, and no one got it quite like The Hook Club (THC) did. Dan, Adam and the team MORE than delivered. Our only regret is that we did not get professional video coverage to be able to relive the moments!

    As we were planning our wedding, we were on a quest to find a NYC-based string trio that could play modern music in an elegant fashion. Our goal was to find a group that could perform the type and quality of music heard on West World,...

    Our guests still rave about the band!

    The Hook Club was so wonderful to work with and so insanely talented! Our guests are still gushing about the energy and professionalism and vocals of the band - we love how they played a variety of genres which appealed to all guests. And they were flexible with the songs we requested. Highly recommend!!!

    Best Band Imaginable

    Could not have asked for a better experience! The Hook Club was so easy to work with from start to finish. Their attention to detail was clearly seen on the day of our wedding and our guests have been raving about them 2 weeks after our wedding! Dan answered our every question and played the songs we requested and did it so well! Truly could not recommend them more for any event you have to plan.

    Beautiful and extremely friendly NYC based band

    My husband and I got married in Brooklyn, New York in Fall 2023. We quickly identified The Hook Club as our top choice because of their affordable prices and extremely customizable packages. Despite not having the largest budget, Dan and Adam worked to create exactly what we needed.

    We had two different sets of instruments throughout the evening. For our ceremony, we had a violin, cello, and piano. The band then switched to a saxophone, bass, and piano for our cocktail hour and reception.

    We honestly couldn't be happier with our choice. There were so many different songs to choose from, and the band are even willing to learn a song or two if you have a favorite that's not on the list! Communication was always so friendly and professional. We cannot recommend them enough!

    Hire immediately

    If I could hire the Hook Club for every party I would! They are THE BEST band and can play the biggest range of music. Each member of the band is so versatile with their vocal and instrumental skills - it's seriously so impressive. They made my wedding day so special - from playing all of our special requests to dancing with the guests, the vibes were immaculate! We got the 8-piece band and the planning process was so smooth. I can't say enough positive things about The Hook Club!

    An Unforgettable Wedding Performance

    When you plan a wedding, you hope for a day that's filled with love, joy, and beautiful memories. However, sometimes, life throws unexpected challenges your way. On our special day, "The Hook Club" not only delivered an exceptional performance but also showcased a level of dedication and professionalism that we will never forget.

    A sudden storm threatened to dampen our wedding day, and we feared our outdoor celebration at the North Fork Table & Inn would be ruined. That's when "The Hook Club" displayed their unwavering commitment by trekking through the storm to make sure they arrived, even when we least expected it. Their determination to be there for us touched our hearts.

    Once they arrived, it...

    Awesome DJ + Band Combo!

    We were thrilled to have The Hook Club as our DJ band for our wedding. Their musical performance was an absolute highlight of our day. The musicians' talent shone during our ceremony, playing our chosen songs beautifully and even accompanying our officiant's vocals. They effortlessly transitioned from ceremony to cocktail hour, where they set the perfect tone with our custom playlist.

    The reception was a true spectacle, with the DJ and four accompanying musicians igniting the dance floor. Their high-energy performance, including choreographed dances and even learning to play Persian music for our special requests, exceeded our expectations. The custom first dance song they prepared was a sentimental touch that we'll forever cherish.

    From communication to execution,...

    The Hook Club is Amazing!

    Hiring The Hook Club was one of the best wedding decisions we made! They were incredible to work with!!! They are extremely talented, and brought such incredible, fun, high energy to our wedding. The Hook Club's extensive music planning worksheet allowed us to stay very organized and ensure all of our favorite music selections were played throughout the night. Guests of all ages mentioned how amazing The Hook Club was, and they made our wedding truly special. The team is communicative, fun-loving, professional, and experienced. I highly recommend The Hook Club!!

    Best band ever

    The Hook Club was my absolute favorite part of our wedding reception. We told Dan we were looking for an amazing dance party, and we got better than I could have imagined. They are so talented and fun, we've gotten tons of compliments from our guests about how fun the music was to dance to and that they can't believe a wedding band could be that good. We booked the 6-piece DJ band and the set up was beautiful, and each musician was so impressive. They can perform a wide range of genres and the cadence of the songs they played worked perfectly to keep the party going throughout the night . They TRULY know what they're doing to...

    Highly Recommend The Hook Club

    My wife and I worked with The Hook Club for our wedding this month. Dan was our DJ and guitarist, and Andrew was our saxophonist. Dan was very responsive and easy to work with throughout the whole process - everything from selecting songs to coordinating the timing of everything that happens during a wedding. We couldn't have been happier with the outcome. Our guests loved having live music! We would highly recommend The Hook Club for any music/DJ needs.

    Best decision we made for our wedding

    The Hook Club is exactly the band we were looking for and after getting feedback from all our wedding guests, it seems exactly the band everyone else wants to use now too! They bring the energy and fun and go above and beyond to make your day feel unique and customized. Dan was so easy to work with, communicative, organized and responsive to our special requests and totally delivered. We're still smiling from ear to ear thinking about how much fun we had dancing all night. From the beautiful duo we had at our ceremony, jazzy trio at cocktail hour, to the full band and lighting crew we had for our reception, THC absolutely crushed it!!

    Everyone loved this band!

    Everyone loved the band! Our guests reached out to us during the wedding and after to let us know how much they enjoyed the dancing and music. Hook Club provided all our sound for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. Speeches, MC'ing, etc. Great choice to add a sax to the cocktail hour and the DJ + 3-piece + Singer (Ines) was awesome. Very professional to work with -- 0 mistakes through the process and proactively reached out to make sure we were hitting our milestones. Would recommend for any event.
