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 crowd was loving- we had guests from 5 to 75 dancing all night! We cannot recommend the Gents enough, they made our reception so fun and memorable.

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.

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!
