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!
