Highlighted review.
The Bachelor Boys Band was absolutely AMAZING!!! We had a solo guitarist for our ceremony, and a jazz duo for our cocktail hour (saxophone and piano). Both sounded absolutely beautiful. We had a 7 piece band for the reception, and I cannot express enough how fantastic this band is!! The guests were on the dance floor the ENTIRE WEDDING RECEPTION! They played every single song we requested. Please book this band - you will not regret it!!
Response from the Vendor on 08/23/2022
Hey Taylor! Thank you so much!! We had so much fun performing for you and your guests. Wishing you all the best!
We got married on 9.14 with a 10-piece band from the Bachelor Boys and had an absolute blast! All of our guests were up and dancing and we've been getting non-stop compliments since the wedding about our choice in music and the band. If we ever had another big event we would go with them again in a heartbeat!
My husband, Zack, and I had the most amazing wedding day with the Bachelor Boys as a part of the party. We had our wedding on 5/18/24 at Armstrong Farms Westminster Preserve Barn in Sarver/Saxonburg, PA. (Wonderful venue, check them out as well!) I can’t even begin to count the amount of guests that approached us to ask about the band, comment on how impressed they were with the performances. Our room was full of musicians, all of whom talked really highly of the band. We had the Bachelor Boys provide sound support for our wedding (relatives and friends provided musical performances) and live music from a 5-pc band for our reception. They even jumped in to help us play some recorded music during our cocktail hour. They MC'ed our entrances and introduced the toasts during dinner, as well as MC'ed our other elements of the night (cake cutting, bouquet and football toss- our version of the garter toss, exits, etc.) The band was electrifying and the dancing literally did NOT stop all evening after dinner. Countless guests, young and old, outgoing and shy, told me they had never danced so much or so enthusiastically at a wedding. I've still received texts about the music up to two weeks later.
Diego, our main MC, as well as a lead vocalist and guitarist, kept the energy up in all of his announcements and rolled with the punches. Our day had unexpected elements, as every wedding does, with possible inclement weather and reception delays when the bustle of my dress ripped. He was reassuring and enthusiastic no matter what happened, and flexible throughout the evening. He also provided his own recommendations for readjusting our timing which was very helpful.
Zack and I are both music teachers and went to music school together, so many, many of our guests were professional musicians, music teachers, or colleagues in the field in some other capacity. It meant the world to us and our guests to have the high quality music (and professionalism) of the band. Everyone in the group was so talented!
If you're considering booking the band, you cannot go wrong with making the investment in the Bachelor Boys as your choice of music. They have packages and personalization to fit all kinds of budgets. As musicians and happy newlyweds, I give them my highest recommendation!
Any questions?
We booked Bachelor Boys Band to play our ceremony (solo musician), cocktail hour (duo), and reception (5 piece band) and to provide the photo booth for our wedding in April 2024. We worked with Roxanne throughout the booking and planning process and she did a great job of keeping us on track and informing us of any action items that needed to be addressed. We didn't give the band much direction other than our ceremony music and they took that freedom and ran with it! They did a great job playing music that appealed to all ages earlier in the night and moving to more current music to appeal to the younger crowd later in the night. Everyone had a blast on the dance floor all night and our guests had great things to say about the band at the end of the night and after the wedding! Our guests also loved the photo booth and props and we enjoyed being able to look back at all of the digital images after the wedding was over for our own memories.
The Bachelor Boys Band was ELECTRIC at our wedding! They truly brought the party. Roxanne was a joy to work/plan with. She took all of our preferences into consideration and everything was executed perfectly on our wedding day. My husband and I could not recommend them enough!
The Bachelor Boys Band played as a six-piece band at our wedding (husband, a saxophonist, added musicians until there was a saxophone). I can't imagine a better value for wedding entertainment than hiring them: they're very talented, professional, well prepared, and not that much more expensive than a DJ. They are absolutely worth it. They also provided sound support for our ceremony (microphones, speakers, and ecorded music for the processional and recessional) at a low additional cost.
Live music has a way of exciting people that recorded can't replicate. We didn't expect too much dancing based on our guests, but BBB got everyone (ages 4 to 86) on the dance floor.
Do not hesitate to book this band !! My husband and I went to the showcase in Philly last year and were able to see a good amount of lead singers that the company works with. We found 2 that we really liked and were able to request them for our wedding almost a year later - and thankfully they were able to make it ! The communication from booking until the big day was fantastic but you also get access to a portal than you can update with details whenever you want. Alex was amazing to work with and the band sounded incredible and played the songs we wanted and avoided the ones we didn’t. I wanted to maximize dancing and opened the reception with a quick dance set and the band handled it perfectly maneuvering through a pretty packed reception schedule. The dance floor was never empty and we got so many complements about the band from our guests. The cocktail hour duo was also a hit and they had all of the PA equipment set up for our ceremony. 10000/10 recommend working with the bachelor boys band !!
The Bachelor Boys played our April 2024 wedding. We really wanted everyone to be on the dance floor all night for our wedding, and they truly delivered. I didn't leave the dance floor all night and we had multiple comments from guests that they had never been to a wedding with the dance floor so full all night! Our dream come true! They also have fabulous easy add on options for ceremony and cocktail hour music that we took advantage of. They were beautiful additions to the night. Thank you!
Look no further - my husband and I had seen BBB at 3 different friends weddings and knew that we had to book them for ours. Everything from our initial touch point to the day of was flawless. They have an incredible planning page that helps keep you on track ahead of the big day, take requests, MC for you, everything. They also did our ceremony and cocktail hour music which was also perfect. The actual reception was SO MUCH FUN, everyone was raving about how incredible they did. The energy was unmatched. Thank you SO MUCH BBB and team, we would book you guys any day!!!
We could not have been more pleased with having Bachelor Boys Band as our wedding entertainment! Working with Colin during the planning process was extremely helpful. He listened to every idea I had, and they were able to execute the vision flawlessly. We had a minor snafu with the timing of our wedding due to an error of another vendor, and they all were able to pivot and accommodate perfectly. Our guests loved the band and danced all night! We cannot recommend them enough for your special event!
We had a blast with The Bachelor Boys at our wedding! They played a mix of music that kept everyone on the dance floor during the reception and the cocktail hour. What stood out was that they learned our songs for the first dance, parents dances, and last dance, which made those moments even more special. Easy to work with and great communicators. Highly recommend if you want a fun and versatile live band for your wedding.
Got married 11/11/23 and used 7-piece Bachelor Boys band at my wedding. The planning process was easy and streamlined and the coordinator was responsive. They have a great price point. My main complaint is I don't think they have great volume awareness and had to be bugged a bunch to turn down the amps (I had guests plugging their ears). Otherwise great value though. I would recommend them, but would suggest you assign someone to be on volume duty so you don't have to worry about it yourself!
Response from the Vendor on 12/13/2023
Grace, Thanks for having us perform at your wedding! We're happy you had a great experience during the planning process and that you and your guests enjoyed the band's performance. It was such a fun event! Thanks for your feedback about the vol...
ume preference as well. We will certainly keep that in mind, especially for your venue, from here on out. Wishing you all the best!
The Bachelor Boys Band was a major highlight of our wedding! We had a gorgeous ceremony duo of vocals and a piano (which made everyone cry) and a perfect five piece band for the party. The MC was attentive to our needs, checked in with our day-of-coordinator frequently, and clarified pronunciations of names. The booking process with them was easy and we were able to check in with Alex throughout the year and a half of prep time for music preferences, vocalist request, questions, etc. The level of detail, care, talent, and energy they brought to our wedding was beyond expectations! In the wedding prep process, we saw many wedding bands perform, but none were as genuine as the Bachelor Boys. This band is truly about talent, not about flashy outfits, overbearing light effects, or attention grabbing dance moves-- hire them for their music!!
The band was AMAZING!!! Loved the sound of the music, they played amazing songs to get everyone up dancing, and were perfect emcees. They even let my dad join in to sing a song. If you want a dancing party, hire them! I also appreciate how easy they made the planning process and how they helped with song choices.
The Bachelor Boys were amazing to work with. The communication with them was easy and efficient, and we always got a reply quickly. They even helped us loop a portion of a song that we wanted for our processional - which was an amazing help. They kept everyone out on the dance floor with their impeccable song choices. I could not recommend them more!
We booked Bachelor Boys Band for our wedding at Normandy Farm in October 2022, and our family and friends are STILL raving about how amazing the band was! My husband and I knew early on in the wedding planning process that we definitely wanted a band because we love live music and going to concerts together. We missed the chance to see any live showcases in Philadelphia due to the pandemic, but we had been to a wedding in Pittsburgh where the band absolutely crushed it, so we knew we were in good hands booking Bachelor Boys. A couple months before our wedding, we finally made it to a live showcase in Wayne, PA and WOW – it not only sealed the deal that we had made the right choice in booking this awesome band, but we decided to upgrade from a 7-piece to a 9-piece band after seeing how many talented musicians they have. The horn section was a must for us! I love that we were able to have a string quartet for our ceremony, a jazz band for our cocktail hour, and the full band for our reception, all with the same group. We are pretty particular about what we like (the Do Not Play list included no line dances, no top 40, no rap or country) and wanted a band who could play songs from multiple genres and decades and keep the party going all night. You would think with 200 guests and a huge ballroom, dancing would ebb and flow throughout the night, but not at this wedding. Our guests packed the dance floor the entire time! At one point toward the end of the night I (the bride) even crowd surfed to Blink 182, which is one of my favorite memories of the night. THANK YOU to Bachelor Boys Band for making our wedding unforgettable!
The Bachelor Boys Band was a BLAST. Honestly, we are still hearing from our wedding guests how much they loved our band (married 9/9/2023 in Richmond, VA). The band was incredibly professional and easy to work with. They played during our ceremony, cocktail hour and we hired a 7 piece band for our wedding reception. They basically played our entire wish list that we provided and the dance floor was full the entire night. We still talk about how happy we are that we splurged a bit to get a larger band. Would highly recommend to anyone searching for a band for their wedding. 10/10
Incredible!! I am so happy I went with the Bachelor Boys! They made the night unforgettable. I received so many compliments on the band during and after the wedding. I went with the 8-piece band and I think it was the best decision I made. They sounded so great. They did an incredible job MCing and most importantly got everyone up on their feet and dancing the night away. Our guests didn't want the band to stop! I would highly recommend.
My son and his new bride were married this past weekend in Washington DC and The Bachelor Boys Band played at their cocktail hour and reception. All I can say is WOW. They were fantastic! Their playlist was spot on and they had everyone on the dance floor all night. Very talented and know how to read a crowd. Thank you for helping to make their day perfect.
AMAZING! DANCE FLOOR PACKED THROUGH OUR ENTIRE RECEPTION!
We worked with Alex through the planning process for our Hamilton Farm Golf Club September 2023 wedding day.
During the planning process, Alex was incredibly responsive, flexible, and answered all of our questions. We booked a solo violinist for our ceremony, cocktail hour trio, and 6 piece band for the reception plus more. Their packages are amazing. The music was absolutely incredible throughout the day!
Our dance floor was packed SOLID from the beginning of the reception to literally the end! Energy was HIGH and the dance floor was packed from the moment they opened to the end of the night! Guests raved about their talent and noted that they were the best band that they have seen. So much fun!
It was such a joy to see our guests enjoy our wedding reception and (literally) dance our entire wedding night! We could not have been more grateful to have worked with the Bachelor Boys Band!
Thank you so much Bachelor Boys Band for making our wedding reception so special!!!!
Bachelor Boys played for my daughter's wedding on 8/19...absolutely wonderful, professional, playful! Could not have asked for more in entertainment. We had a wide range of ages and everyone commented how fabulous they were. So fun! Totally recommend and would say do not hesitate!
We used the Bachelor Boys Band for our wedding in August 2023 at Bartram's garden. Before the wedding, they were very responsive and answered all of our questions. We had a guitarist for our ceremony, a trio for cocktail hour, and 6 piece band for the reception. The music was phenomenal at all parts of the event. They were very flexible with working with our schedule, and a great value for the price. In particular, they did a great job of playing music that engaged all of our guests. Our dance floor was packed until the end of the evening. We had so many guests compliment and even note that they were the best wedding band they had ever seen. We could not have been happier that we worked with the Bachelor Boys Band!
We hired the Bachelor Boy Band for our wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made!! My husband and I love live music and knew we wanted a band if possible! The music / dancing at a wedding is so important to us. We did some research and found the Bachelor Boy Band (they were also recommended by our wedding venue). The really nice thing was we were able to hear them live at a showcase they played at in Pittsburgh before we officially booked them. They have a bunch of different members so the band you hear isn't necessarily going to be exactly who you have, which can be kind of nerve-wracking, but Andrew ensured us they only hire the best talent and no matter who we get would be great! And he was so right- we had them do an acoustic duo at our cocktail hour and had a 7 piece band for our wedding reception and everything was perfect. People did not leave the dance floor!! We even tried to extend the wedding but we weren't allowed due to the venue, that's how many people were still dancing the night away! Andrew was amazing to work with throughout the whole process as well, he was always quick to reply and had a very organized call with us to go over all the details a couple weeks before the wedding. My grandpa sang our father daughter dance and they were amazing with that, they even printed out lyrics for him and made sure he felt comfortable. We could go on and on about how many people asked where we found the band and said that was the best band they heard at a wedding! If you're considering hiring them take this as your sign to do so, you won't regret it!
The band played and sang great at my wedding! However the playlist they used was different from the playlist I had discussed with the band manager prior to the wedding. So my husband and I were extremely disappointed because they ended up playing a random list of songs the band manager made up himself. They also never explained what happened or even apologized.
Response from the Vendor on 09/29/2023
Hi Grace, thanks so much for your feedback. We are so glad that you enjoyed the band at the wedding, and that you felt they played great. I’m so sorry about our misunderstanding with the playlist and that we fell short of your expectations. As ...
we discussed on the phone, songs like The Wobble, CUFF IT, and artists like Luke Combs and T-Pain aren't in our standard repertoire, so we prioritized those songs for the DJ sets. If there was any expectation that the entire requested list of 40+ songs would be live, I do sincerely apologize for that. The band did accommodate a good portion of the request list live with songs like I Wanna Dance With Somebody, Sweet Caroline, Superstition, September, Respect, Dancing Queen, and Michael Jackson hits. I hope that our conversations in the weeks that followed helped to bring resolution and clarity to these issues. Congratulations again to you and Julian, and thanks again for having the Bachelor Boys Band as such a big part of the day!
Bachelor Boys Band is the best!!! We got married on 6/16/23 and used the band for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, and have received so many compliments from our guests. Taylor was so easy to communicate with from the start and the planning page made everything so easy to plan and make sure we didn't forget about any small details.
The mix of music was absolutely perfect and had all of our guests on the dance floor the whole night. There was not one thing they could have done better. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. So affordable and so amazing- I highly recommend!!!!!!!
We worked with Britt throughout the booking and planning process, and she was fantastic! They make it very easy to organize your details and preferences, and Britt was very thorough when we walked through the timeline and logistics leading up to the wedding. We did not have any crazy requests, but they were very accommodating with the little things – such as a adding on cocktail hour music and photo booth later in the process. I even had a special request for a song to be played right after my mother-son dance, and Britt not only accommodated but was genuinely excited about it, which was awesome.
As far as the quality and performance goes – they were incredible. Britt also happened to be the lead singer, and she absolutely crushed it. They played so many of the songs we had listed, and hit almost all of our “must-play” songs. They kept the energy high and the dance floor was packed from the moment dinner was done until the end of the night. Our guests raved about how much fun they had at our wedding, and so much of that can be attributed to our band!
The Bachelor Boys are fantastic! We just had them at our wedding in South Jersey and they were a huge part of a very successful day. Alex did a great job communicating with us and making sure all of our plans were set and scheduled. We used them for our ceremony sound and had an acoustic duo for the ceremony and cocktail hour. Every aspect was exactly as we had planned and expected. Then we got to the reception and they delivered in performing for an amazing party. We had the 5 piece band and they sounded as good as any wedding band I have heard. The dance floor was full from the moment they started until the moment they finished the last song of the night. We had multiple guests rave about the music and we all had an absolute blast. I would highly recommend the Bachelor Boys to anyone!
Bachelor Boys Band is amazing!! The dance floor at our wedding was packed the whole time. Numerous guests are still asking for the bands name so they can hire them for events. They were so easy to communicate with and made the planning process seamless. Every member of the band is super talented and the song choices and range of the band members is incredible!! We cannot thank them enough for making our day so much fun!! They truly are the best band around and the only band we will be using for any and all events.
We could not have been happier with the amazing performance provided by The Bachelor Boys at our wedding. They truly made our special day unforgettable, and we were so lucky to have them as part of our celebration. My husband’s biggest wish for our wedding day was a live band and The Bachelor Boys did not disappoint.
The musicians were incredibly talented and professional, and they were able to keep the party going all night long. The Bachelor Boy’s energy and enthusiasm were contagious, and our guests were on the dance floor the entire night. We had so many guests tell us they had never seen a dance floor so full of people of all ages. We were blown away by their performance, and they really captured the vibe we wanted.
In addition to their amazing performance, The Bachelor Boys were a pleasure to work with. They were very responsive and attentive to our needs and made sure all of our special requests were met. They were also very professional in their setup and teardown and worked seamlessly with our wedding planner and venue staff.
We highly recommend The Bachelor Boys to anyone in search of a high-quality, professional and talented wedding band. They provided an exceptional performance that we will cherish forever. Thank you so much for making our wedding day so special!
The band was PERFECT. They were incredibly helpful when it came to planning the timeline of the rehearsal. They made sure that we had enough time to do each thing and gave suggestions for moving certain speeches and events around to make sure the night flowed. They also were spectacular sounding. The Party did not stop until they played that last song. We would hire them again in a heartbeat.
We are so happy with our decision to have the Bachelor Boys at our wedding! The band was talented and professional. The night was so fun and they knew exactly how to read the room to keep the party going. We did ceremony music, a jazz duo for cocktail hour and a 5 piece band for reception. I HIGHLY recommend the jazz duo, WOW, that was really a differentiator. Communication leading up to the event with Adam went very smoothly. I absolutely recommend the Bachelor Boys! Thank you!
I truly cannot say enough good things about BBB. From start to finish they were incredible to work with. Their planning dashboard is insanely helpful and organized. At the wedding, they kept the dance floor PACKED. All of my friends and family keep raving about them. Thank you bachelor boys band!!!
Response from the Vendor on 08/23/2022
Thank YOU so much, Samantha! We couldn't have done it without you and your guests :)
The Bachelor Boys Band was INCREDIBLE! We went with a jazz trio for our cocktail hour and a 9 piece band for our reception. The song selection was perfect and they created such a fun vibe that instantly got guests out of their seats. The band was truly the most complimented aspect of our wedding...I have two family members who have played in bands for years and even they said Bachelor Boys were exceptional, the real deal. Would highly recommend them for any wedding/event!
OK- let me be real with the Internet. I never post, but when I do, it's because the experience commands me to. BBB wasn't good- they were beyond AMAZING!!! First - the communication with Colin / Brittany was superb. Quick to respond to e-mails, straightforward with the planning (maybe that's because I'm a simple man), and the band learned two songs we requested (will get to that). Second- the musicians are top notch and keep the guests moving (we had a drummer, keyboardist, guitarist / vocals, lead vocalist, and most importantly, the bassist). Seriously. Third- BBB let me (a lowly, humble groom) play a couple songs with them (I play the bass, yes, my wife makes fun at me that you can't hear it, but tell you what, you know when a song does not have funk and groove). For our first dance, the band learned to play, and performed beautifully, Sleep on the Floor by The Lumineers. The band also learned and let me play Beast of Burden by The Rolling Stones with them (my wife LOVES that song). Lastly, the band also let me perform Uptown Funk by Mark Ronson ft. Bruno Mars - it was beyond funky. Seriously BBB, you made all the difference at our wedding- THANK YOU! And to prospective couples out there, YOU HAVE TO HIRE THESE GUYS!!!
All of our guests were out on the dance floor all night. The band really listened to our preferences and we were extremely impressed with their sound. We are so pleased that we decided to book them and can't imagine our wedding any other way. We were originally booked with them for fall 2020 and they were very accommodating on moving our date. Highly recommend this band!
We LOVED the Bachelor Boys Band! They kept our dancing floor going all night and our guests loved them! They played the perfect mix of what we were looking for between pleasing our younger guests and also our older crowd. We cannot recommend them enough for your wedding, you won't regret it!
JUST BOOK THEM ALREADY!!!! Bachelor Boys Band was absolutely INCREDIBLE!!!!
BBB was so flexible when we had to change our date and then location due to COVID. They had no problem when we had to switch to a backyard wedding. Amber was very helpful for stage/dance floor/ and electrical needs.
During the wedding, our timeline changed last minute, and the band was SO flexible. They played for 2 hours straight- no breaks!!!! My family and our guests are still raving about it. The dance floor was WILD, and they played all the songs we asked. Even my grandma wouldn't leave the dance floor....shes 93!
THANK YOU BBB!!! YOU MADE OUR WEDDING NIGHT!!!!
We hired Bachelor Boys in early 2020 pre-Covid, and since then our wedding has changed several times. Taylor, our producer, was patient with us every step of the way. When we finally had our delayed reception in Sept. 2021, Taylor was very proactive with finalizing our details, music tastes and event details. She even helped provide some thoughts on our event timeline to make sure we were getting the most dance time throughout the night. Taylor was also very easy to work with and got along perfectly with the venue manager and our wedding coordinator.
I had seen the Bachelor Boys at other weddings in DC and Baltimore, so knew the PA musicians we hired would be good. Turns out, they were SPECTACULAR. Our guests loved the music all night, from cocktails through the end of the reception, and still talk about how good they were. The band played a great range of music from current pop, classic rock, oldies and 90s/early 2000s to appeal to everyone and keep in line with what we wanted. The best part was my husband making a last-minute request for a song to play at the end of the night and the musicians we hired, including Taylor (she was also our female vocalist), making it work. That is, and will always be, his favorite part of the night. Thank you, Bachelor Boys, for making our delayed reception so memorable and perfect!
You need three things at your wedding - good food, flowing drinks and The Bachelor Boys Band. We hired the Bachelor Boys for our ceremony, cocktail and reception music. The only requests we made were for ceremony and first dances. We let them feel out the vibe of the group and play whatever they wanted to keep everyone dancing and I honestly could not recommend that more. My husband and I are a huge fan of live music so a band over a DJ was a must. The fact that you can customize the band/instruments to fit your space or preferred type of music is pretty much the coolest. 10/10 recommend The Bachelor Boys Band! 2 weeks later and our family and friends are still talking about how much fun they were.
We first saw the bachelors boy band at a cousins wedding, and they were incredible. They had the room dancing all night, high energy, engaged and hyped up the crowd, and had great song choices.
We were a covid wedding and requested the same lead singer, but due to rescheduling we were not able to get the lead we wanted for our final wedding date but were assured all lead singers were top notch. While our lead singer had a beautiful voice, I was unfortunately pretty disappointed throughout the performance. The lead singer and band did not engage the crowd or lead songs with any enthusiasm. When it came to song choices, the band did not seem to read the room to determine song, which is claimed to be a specialty. Song choices seemed lighter, and not the hype party vibe we were looking for- even when we asked the band to pick it up a bit.
I have had great experiences with this band, but due to my wedding experience I would caution people looking to book this band to ask more about the vibe of the lead singer, and would suggest being specific with the song choices if you have a vibe you are looking for. Otherwise, they were very easy to work with, kind, and incredibly flexible.
Response from the Vendor on 05/23/2022
Hello! I'm so glad you loved the performance at your cousin's wedding, your lead singer, and that you had a good experience with the planning leading up to the event. I am sorry, though, that you didn't think the band was as engaging at your ev...
ent as you hoped. Your wedding was earlier on in our return to events during the pandemic. Our musicians were still getting their footing about how much to engage with the crowd and many venues/planners gave specific instructions about where the band members could be and how much interaction we could have with guests etc., so we were a bit cautious and eager to do our part in making events as safe as possible after almost a year without them. I do sincerely apologize if this came off as unenthusiastic. That is certainly not the impression we want to give and I can promise you we were thrilled to be there! Thankfully, we are back in our groove now. Wishing you all the best!
We loved having a band for our wedding and Bachelor Boys’ price point was much more reasonable than others we looked at, even for smaller format bands. Many of our guests complimented how talented the band was, and they put on a show despite sweltering heat!
What kept us from giving them 5 stars: We felt that they didn’t much take into account the songs we said we liked or wanted them to play. They asked for detailed descriptions of our music tastes and must-play songs on their questionnaire, and confirmed these during our final phone consultation, but ended up playing what we considered to be fairly generic wedding music. In the end, I think this actually appealed to our older guests a lot more - they absolutely loved the music - but I was bummed to hear my friends joking about when we might hear a song from this decade.
We made the right choice with the Bachelor Boys Band for our wedding! From the solo jazz guitarist during our ceremony to the jazz trio during our cocktail hour, so many of our guests commented on how wonderful the music was. As music lovers, it was definitely a highlight to have live music at our wedding. We did all the planning with Mike, who made it all a breeze!
The best. From the minute we contacted them to the end of our reception, they were super responsive and professional. Alex was our point of contact and he made the planning and logistics seamless . The band had our guests dancing all night. I wish we could do it all again!!
Bachelor Boys Band completely and utterly blew my husband and I away. From our very first meeting with Andrew – these folks gave us top-notch service and attention. We had several calls leading up to our big day – where we discussed our expectations – the ins and outs of the event – logistics and preferences. At all times, the band was exceptionally professional, available and accommodating. From the moment they powered up to the last song of the evening – the process was flawless and the performance first-rate. They brought life and pure joy to our celebration, even in the midst of a global pandemic, and were incredibly respectful, safe and responsible. They didn’t just blow us away – nearly every single wedding guest commented on how incredible the band was – truly, the talk of the town! Our choice to work with the Bachelor Boys Band was absolutely one of the best decisions we made for our wedding celebration – and we are forever grateful.
Bachelor Boys Band was the highlight of our wedding. Due to Covid, the music was played outside under a tent. As many of our guests mentioned, the band playing made everything feel "normal" for a night. As good as they were the night of the wedding, they were just as great to work with behind the scenes. Mike took emails and calls with me and extremely responsive and great with giving advice. Would 100% recommend!
Bachelor Boys Band did an amazing job with MCing our wedding and playing all of our favorite songs. Our guests kept raving about the band, and people that never dance were dancing the night away!
The Bachelor Boys Band was INCREDIBLE! I would highly highly recommend them to anyone who is considering having a live band at their wedding. We went with a 10 piece band (which was phenomenal) and it was the most talked about aspect of our wedding! They were very professional and accommodating to songs we wanted played (our first dance, father/daughter dance, etc). Additionally they were excellent at Emceeing our event as well. All of our guests loved the band (they're still talking about them 5 months later!), and even when the band was taking a break they played fun songs in between that still kept everyone dancing. I am so thankful they played at our wedding and easily made that much more enjoyable!
I cannot recommend Bachelor Boys Band highly enough. I planned much of our wedding while my husband was deployed, and I'll never forget the night I went solo to see a show in Arlington, VA, as I was thinking about bands and DJs. It was probably the easiest decision and the best decision I made. I was a little indecisive on my wedding day about different dances and songs, and Bachelor Boys Band were able to make changes and perform flawlessly on the spot. I have zero complaints and nothing but praise. Their team was incredibly easy to work with, and there was nothing stressful at all about making song lists, dance, and toast plans. They are real pros. We had a small wedding of about 50 people at Stone Tower Winery in Leesburg. Everyone was on the dance floor for the entire reception. I've recommended this band to everyone I know getting married in the area. They made our day so incredibly special, and it's something everyone remembers and still talks about.
BBB is the go-to group for a fun, energetic and professional band for your event. Mike was easy to reach for one-off questions in the months of planning ahead of the big day. The week prior, Mike and I discussed what my fiance and I wanted to hear, more importantly what we didn't want to hear, and left it to BBB to do the rest. Music played was great for all ages and there was no lack in dancing all night. Thanks BBB!
The Bachelor Boys Band was absolutely fabulous to work with from start to finish. The planning is super easy (even while coordinating from out of state!) and the six piece band itself was so incredibly talented and fun! They emceed the evening and our guests were RAVING about them - We couldn't ask for more! Thank you!!
We could NOT have been happier with The Bachelor Boys!! We first heard them at my sister's wedding and were highly impressed. They played the perfect mix of music based on our requests. The dance floor was full all evening, and we are still continuing to receive compliments on how awesome they were. The string duo during cocktail hour was absolutely amazing and took the time to learn a custom song that I had requested for my bridesmaids to walk down the aisle to. The jazz trio during cocktail hour set the perfect tone! We are so grateful to have had them perform at our wedding and make our wedding night the best one ever. We will continue to recommend!
We had a 6 piece band at my wedding this past weekend and the party didn't stop the entire time! They had a mixed crowd dancing from start to finish. They were able to play my first dance song live which was really special. Each band member was talented and enthusiastic all night long. The MC who was also the lead singer was super organized and didn't miss a beat! We've gotten so many messages from guests telling us how fantastic they were and how much fun they had because of the band! We didn't write a set list but they read the crowd and played songs from a variety of categories that had people up on their feet all night! The price also included ceremony music and cocktail hour music.
We could not be happier with this band! We had a keyboard and cellist play during the ceremony and it was truly beautiful. During the reception the band was spectacular. They nailed everything from soul/funk to classic rock to classic party songs to blink 182. They really read the room and the dance floor was full the whole night! So many guests raved about the live music during the reception and are still complimenting us 2 weeks later! I could not be happier with our choice!!!
Bachelor Boys Band was the best part of our wedding! If you are looking for amazing live music, book them! The dance floor was full all night long. It’s months later and people are still talking about how great the band is! They were great to work with and ever went out of their way to learn songs we really wanted played. I highly recommend and would ask them to play at all my future events!
I'm not joking even a little bit right now . . . these people were AMAZING. I really didn't think wedding bands could get this good. First, they played Queen without missing a beat. Second, the lead guitarist hit the high note in Take On Me. Everyone at my wedding was fan girling over the band, including my mother. No one sat at my wedding . . . everyone was on the dancefloor, I'm talking photographers sliding on their knees with their cameras aloft as the music blared. What a great time. I'm so glad we got a live band and went with the Bachelor Boys.
Like any other couple, we wanted only the BEST BAND/ music/ entertainment for our wedding. A good friend of ours , RLMedia, have recommended Bachelor Boys Band. That was the best recommendation ever! Adam and Najwa were easy to work with. Very nice people who took care of our needs, answered all our questions/ e-mails in a timely manner. For our wedding ceremony, we had a violinist, keyboardist, and singer from the band. They learned to render the song we picked. They studied it and sang & played it perfectly! We have requested that they accompany 2 of our own singers that they have never met before. They practiced just that morning. We were nervous but IT WAS FLAWLESS! Perfect rendition of THE PRAYER! For our reception, we requested Chelsea & Andrew among others. Our bridal entourage have difficult last names but Chelsea pronounced them perfectly! The introduction of the bridal entouragage into the reception was lively! All of the music that we requested were played. Our 4 children play instruments & they rendered us a song & the band accomodated them in a heartbeat! They lent them their instruments with no hesitation & joined the fun! It was truly a night to remember. We heared nothing but compliments from our guests, that at the end of the night, they were shouting “MORE” as the band was saying good night. They were very presentable, sang & played music perfectly, very friendly, their price is very reasonable. Nothing else to look for. We would recommend them in a heartbeat and would go back to Philly where they play just to listen to them. If you want The PERFECT group to play at your wedding, to make it lively & fun for everyone just the way you like it, if you want the best music entertainment, go with Bachelor Boys Band! Just go and listen to them play & you will know why. It’ll be a night to remember!
We recently had the Bachelor Boys Band play at our New Year’s Eve Wedding. It was not just a wedding, it was an experience! The band was spectacular! From the beginning, Andrew, our contact, was professional and prompt when responding to my emails. We were able to listen to tracks from the vocalists and choose our favorites. Vince was the lead male vocalist for our wedding. He kept in communication with us throughout the event. He went above and beyond to make sure our expectations were met! He even made it a point to ensure he pronounced the names of the guests in the wedding party correctly. It is clear that the BBB are professionals. The energy in the room was exhilarating! They dance floor was packed the entire evening and the music was sensational! I recommend The Bachelor Boys Band to anyone who is considering live music for their event.
We had the bachelor boys perform at our wedding at the John James Audubon Center in July and they were incredible! We went to see them twice at their showcases before booking. That helped us see different musicians perform and pick what worked best for us. They were professional, organized, and friendly during the planning process and on the day of our wedding. Chelsea, Mandy, and Andrew were our lead singers and they were so talented!! It’s been 6 months since our wedding and everyone is still talking about how much they loved our band. They had people dancing and singing all night long! Highly recommend!
They were perfect! They used every song we requested and more! So lively and amazing! If you book them, you will not be disappointed! Great MC's too!
My husband and I went to the Bachelor Boys showcase and were able to pinpoint which singers we felt would best go with the set list and music we loved. Mike was able to accommodate all of our requests and boy did Nikki not disappoint. She is AMAZING, as is the rest of the band.
Mike was so responsive and walked us through the whole booking process. Having our own band page we could tweak as necessary was a great way to stay organized and in touch with Mike.
So many of my guests complimented us on our band choice and asked for their name. They really helped make our wedding as fun as possible and I am so grateful.
Bachelor Boys Band was the best choice for our New Year's Eve wedding. They kept the party going all night and the dance floor was always full. Still hearing from our guests how amazing the band was.
Definitely recommend!
We hired this band (5 piece band) for our wedding in November. They played an excellent combination of music and kept it to an enjoyable volume that made you want to dance but not feel the need to put earplugs in your children or grandparents.
We were going for a classy vibe and this band made it happen! They were easy to work with, corresponded in a timely manner to e-mails, and were able to make last minute changes moments before we were introduced as the wedding party and couple (somehow I forgot to add in the flower girls' names when making the list for the emcee initially).
The nicest part about working with the band is that they have a portal page for the clients who hire them. I was able to go in at my leisure multiple times to make updates to the timeline for the band of songs and flow of our reception events. The band was also familiar with our coordinator at the Country Club of York, so they collaborated together the week or two before our wedding on different items of cake cutting versus when to play, so that I did not have to be bothered with the nuances.
They are an excellent band for any wedding or event, with a talented group of musicians who can play nearly any form of music.
Thank you for helping to make our day special!
New Year’s Eve wedding! They had the reception rocking all evening. Really nice to work with and great talent combo!
Book them! You won’t regret.
I can't say enough about how great it was to work with Andrew through the whole process! He was very helpful with answering all my questions leading up to the big day. He was very professional and organized!
Vince and the band were amazing! Kept the crowd going all night long! Everyone had a such a great time and commented how fun the band was the entire night!
We are so appreciative of how smoothly the night went! The Bachelor Boys really made our night an amazing evening!
Bachelor Boys Band was the only band we considered for our wedding. We were really attracted to the idea that it wasn’t through a large band management company and they made every step of the way very easy that we did not continue to look around after finding them. We attended two shows at Jammin Java along the way to get an idea of the number of band members we wanted. Bachelor Boys totally exceeded our expectations! Our only goal was for the dance floor to be packed and that is exactly what they did. If you are going back and forth between a band and a DJ, band all the way! Your guests will thank you and Bachelor Boys will make your night very memorable.
The Bachelor Boys Band played my wife's and my wedding and we could not have been happier with them. First and foremost, they are top quality musicians who bring high energy throughout their performance. Secondly, they could not have been easier to work with - the band leader was easy to get a hold of, quick to respond, and worked with us to tailor the music for our ceremony and reception exactly as we wanted it (and when the timing of our wedding night didn't run exactly as planned, they could not have been more accommodating to make changes on the fly to ensure that we still got our money's worth out of the evening). Lastly, the quality of their performance far exceeded the cost of hiring them, which seemed surprisingly reasonable at the outset and in retrospect seems like a total bargain. We have seen them play at three separate events and they were fantastic every time. I'm not sure why anyone who can afford to hire them would go with anyone else.
Booking the Bachelor Boys Band will be your best and easiest decision . From booking, to communication, to our music dashboard they were fantastic for our Powhatan, VA wedding. Bachelor Boys Band provided entertainment for my entire wedding. We had a string trio for the ceremony, a piano soloist for cocktail hour, and a 4-piece band for the reception. There were always people on the dance floor! So many compliments following the wedding.
Everything about the Bachelor Boys Band made planning the music for our wedding super easy. We worked with Andrew to plan music selections, logistics, etc., and we could not have asked for a more professional - or nicer! - contact. Andrew was super accommodating with our requests to switch back and forth between the band and DJ'ed music at certain times to fit traditional cultural dances in while the photographer and videographer were still onsite.
The day of our weddings, logistics (unsurprisingly) went a little haywire by the time we got to the reception, and the band was calm and flexible the entire time - even when we had to switch some things around last minute. They went with the flow, kept the guests entertained and ready to dance, and every single musician was so talented! We would highly recommend Bachelor Boys Band to anyone looking for a live band for a wedding.
The Bachelor Boys helped to make our wedding reception so much fun! They are a talented, fun, and professional group who can sing and play anything! We are so thankful for everything the band did to help our guests have a great time!
Bachelor Boys came recommended to me by the Metropolitan Club in Washington, DC. I had no experience with them, but was willing to try. What a fabulous experience! From the get-go, their communication put me at ease. Every email & every question was answered within a couple of hours. The night of their performance was fantastic--they read our audience, they played exactly the right music, their demeanor and dress were perfect, they adjusted the volume so it just right...I cannot say enough. Well, except one more thing: TALENTED MUSICIANS!
Live music at our wedding was a top priority! Bachelor Boys Band was the best decision we made. From working with Alex leading up to our big day to the professionalism and talent of the band members at our ceremony and reception, it was a perfect experience. Our guests have not stopped commenting on the trio of strings at the ceremony, jazz quartet at cocktail hour, and 11 piece band at the reception. This is truly an amazing group of talented artists to help you create wonderful memories on your wedding day!
Absolutely AMAZING! Highly recommend this band if you are looking for:
-a super laid back and thoughtful band manager who does an amazing job at setting up the perfect environment
-a band that gets everyone out of their seats dancing
-music that is enjoyable for all guests
-sounds like pure MAGIC!
-flexible to any song selection
-gets the party going and KEEPS the party going
Pretty terrible experience. We booked them as our first vendor because the band and music was so important to us. When they played, they were great. Absolutely outstanding. However, they took way longer breaks than our contract agreed to, and our guests couldnt even remember if we had a band or dj. The band members were pretty unfriendly and it felt like they didnt want to be there. We had multiple coordinators they could have spoken to for one thing or the next, but there was a moment the lead singer got frustrated and even yelled at our wedding. It truly depends who is leading the band for the night.. otherwise its a 50% experience. Terrible communication from management as well. They sent wrong musicians for the night, and communication did not get relayed to the onsite band. Overall very disappointing and hope others dont have to go through what we did on our wedding night
Response from the Vendor on 12/23/2019
Sarah, thank you for sharing your experience with the band. We are disappointed to read this review and want to reply just so that future clients at least understand both sides of this situation. For starters, we were glad to hear that you thou...
ght the music was awesome! We always strive to pack the dance floor and deliver a high energy performance, and we remember this night being right in line with those goals.
The main issue from our perspective was that numerous guests (unfortunately some quite drunk and belligerent) stormed the stage while the band was on break, and attempted to use our equipment without asking for permission. We often allow family and friends to play our instruments and even join the band for a few songs (in fact we love doing that!). As is stated in our contract this needs to be approved ahead of time and we do appreciate a heads-up in person before anyone attempts to play our instruments. When the MC realized what was happening he made an announcement (trying to remain as calm as possible) requesting that all guests please leave the stage before we started another dance set. If this came across as unnecessarily stern I do regret that, and we sincerely apologize if anyone was put off by the announcement. One break did last longer than we prefer as both the MC and bass player called Amber and me in an attempt to rectify the situation without derailing the party. Our preference was to get our instruments out of immediate danger (we need them to make a living!) so that we could continue to play without fear of having our equipment damaged. In regards to the rest of the schedule, the band followed what you, the planner, and Amber had gone over in detail ahead of time, which included a full band cocktail hour and three full dance sets after dinner, as contracted.
In regards to the wrong musicians being sent for the event, I do apologize for any miscommunication on our end. The original request was for a 7-piece band with trombone in place of trumpet, which we were happy to accommodate (and solidified at the time of booking). In the weeks leading up to the wedding it was requested that we switch back to the standard lineup to include trumpet, which we were unfortunately unable to change. Beyond that, we received no additional feedback in regards to the makeup of the band. And again, we are thrilled to hear that the music itself was outstanding! We do regret hearing that you were dissatisfied with any element of the night and appreciate this feedback to try to do a better job in the future. Best wishes to both you and Jonathan in your life together! I do hope that despite some of these hiccups you, as well as your friends and family, were able to enjoy the music and have fond memories of the event.
Sincerely,
Adam Hopkins | Bachelor Boys Band Manager
If you are considering a live band for your wedding, look no further than the Bachelor Boys! The Bachelor Boys are complete professionals who had all our guests on the dance floor all night long! They kept the wedding reception moving with respect to speeches, cake-cutting, and the first dances. Afterwards, we really wanted all of our guests to have a blast and dance the night away. With their blend of old, new, fast, and slow songs, the Bachelor Boys had our guests hooked! Everyone after the wedding could not stop complimenting the band! We highly recommend and cannot thank them enough for making our big day a night to remember!
When we first started planning a wedding, both my fiancée and I really wanted a band but weren’t sure it would fit into our budget. After attending their showcase, we knew we had to have them! The Bachelor Boys Band was worth EVERY PENNY! Our guests have been raving about the band and the only time we left the dance floor was to fill up our drinks. Amber was super organized and made sure every detail leading up to the wedding was accounted for. The best decision we made was hiring The Bachelor Boys Band...I promise you will not be disappointed!!!
It's amazing the range of songs they can cover! They are so talented and so good at what they do. Their ability to accommodate all your asks and specific genres is a testament to their range of musicians. We worked directly with Mike leading up to the event and he was so easy and flexible, they take any anticipated stress out of the whole relationship. Our day of performers were beyond talented and met every ask. Thanks for keeping our dance floor packed!
Andrew and the Bachelor Boys went above and beyond to make our wedding day perfect. Everything from song selection, detail discussion, and week of planning was seamless. Andrew promised a lot, but they over delivered. I would highly recommend them.
The BBB was a perfect addition our wedding! They kept the party and dance floor going all night! Andrew was so great to work with and answered all of our questions and requests before the day. I would highly recommend them!! They are one of the reasons our wedding day was so perfect! 🥰🥂
We used the Bachelor Boys Band for our brunch wedding. Nathan was amazing--everyone kept commenting how awesome he was. Planning and scheduling was very easy with Andrew--we even had a change of date and they made it work! I would highly suggest this band!!
