There’s no time to sort through endless emails, texts, and questions to get to the information you really need. Mainly, what does it cost?!?!

Working with Joel and the Class Act band was great! Joel was very organized during the planning stages to make sure that we covered everything needed for the music during the night. We have received numerous compliments about their performance and have already had guests ask for their information to hire them for future events. Strongly recommend working with Joel and Class Act for your wedding!

AND THE MUSIC!!!
From our first conversation with Joel we knew we found the right band for our event.
Joel listened to all of our ideas and than took complete charge in guiding us through all of our ideas and vision. Joel took the time to seamlessly mapout the order and precision of our multi location venue.
Class Act was incredible with the time and initiative they took to coordinate the cocktail party, ceremony and reception. They worked with the photographer and with the restaurant to make sure everything worked smoothly.
Joel mapped everything out for all and took complete charge acting as MC. Such a relief!!
Joel created a step by step guide to make our decision making smooth and easy.
ANDTHE MUSIC!....Our guests raved about the music and the fact that the band totally kept everyone excited, pumped up and dancing the entire night. The band was so engaged and excited to be there our guests thought they were related to the bride.
We can't thank Class Act enough - they truly made our day.
I highly recommend Class Act, once you speak with Joel you will breathe again.

We had the absolute pleasure of having Class Act perform at our wedding, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with their performance! From the very start, they exceeded our expectations in every way.
The talent of the band was truly remarkable. We were inundated with compliments from our guests about how fantastic the music was. The song selection was perfect—there was something for everyone, and the band’s ability to play a variety of genres really kept the energy high and the dance floor packed all night.
Joel, the drummer and MC, was exceptional. As our main point of contact, he made the entire process seamless and stress-free. On the day of the wedding, his natural charisma and skillful coordination made everything run smoothly.
If you’re considering a live band for your wedding, we highly recommend Class Act. They brought an incredible level of professionalism and talent to our celebration, and they made our special day even more unforgettable. Thank you, Joel, and the entire Class Act team, for delivering such an outstanding performance!

Class Act delivers top tier service from start to finish. When we started wedding planning, we knew we wanted live music at our reception. That vision started to dwindle as we quickly found out how expensive that is. That was until we came across Joel and Class Act. I had reached out to a previous bride who also had them and she had nothing but rave reviews, so I proceeded. After the first call with Joel, I knew we were in good hands. He is attentive, responsive, honest, and a genuinely kind person. He isn’t going to tell you what to do but will help guide you curate the best reception possible. We met with Joel throughout the planning process discussing song lists to the order of moments to ensure we were all on the same page. This was all before they wowed us on our wedding day with their talented musical abilities. They kept our guests on their feet all night long, singing and dancing to the music. If you are looking for a well oiled machine music group who will make your night more memorable than you can imagine, then Class Act is your band!!!

Class Act was the absolute best choice we made for our wedding! They were helpful, easy to work with, communicative, and at the end of the day they delivered what we asked for...a great party atmosphere for our big day!

Hiring Class Act for our wedding was a no-brainer. They’re a talented group of professionals with a huge setlist, and they had no issues with learning new songs per our request. While they’re highly entertaining with great chemistry and banter, the one factor that sets them apart from other wedding bands is their ability to keep the guests engaged and on the dance floor. Joel is methodical in the way he plans the reception and we’re so gracious we had his insight leading up to the big day. Our guests continue to mention how much fun they had at our wedding and that’s largely because we hired Class Act.

Class Act helped make our wedding day an absolute blast. They were very helpful throughout the planning process and met with us a couple of times to ensure everything was planned properly and all our questions were answered. They learned new songs to be able to play for our first and last dances and ensured the music matched the mood and brought the party! Every member of the band was very professional and respectful. We highly recommend Class Act for any of your future events, especially weddings.

From the moment we began planning our wedding, we knew the music would be one of the most important elements to set the tone for our big day since we were having only 60 people on our wedding day. Choosing the perfect wedding band was no easy task, but when we found Class Act, we instantly knew they were the one!
Our wedding day was nothing short of magical, and Class Act played a huge part in making that happen. From the first contact, Joel was super friendly, charismatic, and truly invested in making our day special. He took the time to understand our music tastes and even learned a few special songs that we felt personal about having on our wedding day.
On the day of our wedding, Class Act exceeded all expectations. Their performance was phenomenal! Every song was played to perfection, and their energy was infectious. Even our guests part took in a dinner sing along with the Band. They had everyone up on their feet dancing and singing along all night. The transitions between songs were seamless, and they expertly read the crowd to keep the party going strong all night long.
Not only are they incredibly talented musicians, but they also are all teachers and have a genuine passion for what they do. So many of our guests commented on how amazing the band was and it truly made the night.

From the moment we got engaged we knew we wanted Class Act to be a part of our wedding. My sister and good friend had also used them for their wedding and were amazing and I knew that they would be great, but I was even pleasantly surprised. From the very beginning Joel was so easy to work with and made us feel like he had our backs. He knew all the right questions to ask and made our night everything we dreamed of. This band will truly make your wedding so special. Their sound is amazing and they are all just really great people. We give them our highest recommendation.

Class Act really lived up to its name. Our experience with Joel was incredible. He really set us at ease with his confidence in organizing the reception and coordinating with other vendors. Communication was amazing, especially given Joel’s busy schedule. He always made time for us and went out of his way to make sure everything was in line.
The music was incredible!! Class Act is comprised of very individually talented musicians and together they sounded even better. Our friends and family were raving about it during and after the wedding. The dance floor was crowded the whole time!
We would 100% recommend Class Act!

One of the most memorable parts of our wedding was having Class Act 215 as our wedding band. They played for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception and our guests were so impressed by how amazing they were. Joel worked with us ahead of time to plan out everything and they had such a comprehensive song selection list. They learned an alternative/folk song for our first dance and you would have thought it was the original artists singing and playing. They made our day so memorable and I highly recommend having Class Act 215 as your wedding band!

Class Act was simply amazing to work with. We're two weeks married today and all our friends can talk about is how awesome our wedding band was! We so appreciated the ease with which they worked with us and our venue so that all the details were taken care of on the day of, with nothing needed from the bride or groom. They customized our music selection, learned a new song for us, and even let our teenage daughter play a number with them...it was so special. And the fact that they are all teachers in the Doylestown community made it extra special too. I highly recommend them if you want an amazing party that gets people out on the dance floor!

We had the absolute best experience working with Joel and ClassAct. Our wedding was perfect and the band was a huge part of that success. They have this great ability to read the room perfectly. We said we wanted a dance party and they made sure that everyone was on the dance floor all night long-picking the perfect songs and with the best energy. Everyone LOVED the band. It was also super easy to work with them- everyone was super professional and fun to talk with. We had a few zoom calls with Joel and he gave us a lot of tips. We talked through music for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception- three different vibes from classic to jazzy to pop punk dance party. In the end everything was just so wonderful and stress free. Also these guys are SO GOOD.- you can’t help but be impressed. We saw them play live a couple times beforehand so we knew they would not disappoint but still it was amazing how great the music, MC-ing, and organization was. We also really appreciated the fact that they have deals for teachers, first responders, and military. After being in the Army for 12 years, we had a lot of current/former military guests and they were all super impressed/touched when we told our friends that the band had helped us make our budget work with a military discount. Overall we cannot ever express enough how much we owe the success of the night to ClassAct. Or adequately express our gratitude to every member of the band for the amazing time. We would recommend them absolutely to any couple who wants the magic of a live band at their wedding. You will not be disappointed. They’re the real deal and super talented great people. I hope we can book them again for an event or maybe an anniversary party! Thank you!

Joel and his band did a phenomenal job. That is saying it lightly. They came through in so many more ways than just performing an amazing show. We met with Joel multiple times over video chat. At the wedding he made everything easy and even stepped in whenever our wedding coordinator could not. I give him and his group of teachers an A+!

Where to even begin?!? Completely blown away with the professionalism and smooth organization from the first conversation to the end of our wedding night! Joel and his crew are the best of the best. The whole process of how you pick music, fill out questionnaires, etc. made it so easy, and by the time the wedding came it felt like the band knew us very well! Joel gave us pointers on how to make sure everyone was having a good time, basically said if you’re on the dance floor, everyone else would be and boy that couldn’t be more true. When you get married you get nervous that people won’t have fun but we followed Joel’s suggestions and oh boy it was quite the party! I don’t think the dance floor has ever been sweatier!!! All of the guest wrote me after the wedding raving about how incredible the band was! I truly cannot say enough good things about this band, they truly made the wedding, we had 160 guests and I can’t even tell you how many people told us it was one of the top 3 weddings they have ever been to, thanks to this band!! Don’t think twice with booking this band, you will NOT regret it! Wedding of a lifetime!!

I couldn't imagine a wedding band better than Class Act - truly the best of the best.
Class Act was an absolute pleasure to work with ahead of the wedding - they were organized, timely, and courteous. They were on top of every detail, and had a really smooth system for collecting all of our feedback and guidance regarding the type of music we wanted to hear and how we wanted to structure the reception. They consistently provided great advice, but always made us feel respected and made sure we knew we were in the driver's seat.
When it came to the actual party, Class Act absolutely crushed it. Virtually every guest at our reception (from 10 years old to folks older than 80) was on the dance floor from start to finish. We're >2 weeks past our wedding and we still have friends and family reaching out to tell us how much they enjoyed the music and how impressed they were by Class Act.
I couldn't recommend Class Act more highly - amazing music, extremely professional, and truly great value. A must for any tri-state wedding!

Class Act killed it! If you are looking for an excellent wedding band that can play a variety of tunes and keep the dance floor packed look no further.
When it came to all of our wedding vendors Class Act and Joel were by far the easiest to work with along the entire process. Joel made sure to set up multiple meetings with us to iron out all of the details, even ones we did not think of. When it actually came time for our wedding the music was the least of our concerns.
Now onto the music. We purchased the piano + sax add on for ceremony and cocktail hour in addition to the full band for our reception. The music could not have been more perfect for every phase of our wedding day. Joel was also an excellent MC keeping the crowd engaged and on the dance floor the entire night. I would highly recommend Class Act to anyone looking for a live band and would certainly use them again in a heartbeat.

We had a very large wedding and they kept the dance floor going the whole night. Our guests were coming up to me all night and saying how great the band is! The pianist did a beautiul job for both the ceremony and cocktail hour along with the sax player. All 7 members were fantstic throughut the entire night and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a band at their wedding!! So much fun... wish we could do it all over again!!

If you're considering a band for your wedding, your search should start and stop with Class Act. You will not find a better option. From their extreme talent, attention to detail, responsiveness, and unmatched customer service/experience, Class Act has it all! They provided the music for our entire event (ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception), and really made our vision come to life.
This band knows how to energize the room and keep the crowd engaged and on the dance floor the entire night. At the end of our reception, one of our guests told us it felt like he was at a concert.
Additionally, and possibly most importantly, Joel did a better job coordinating with us than our venue's wedding planner. I could literally go on and on but to sum it up, we cannot recommend Class Act enough!

Class Act was nothing short of AMAZING!! Joel was so awesome and easy to work with from the very beginning. Due to COVID we pushed our wedding by a whole year and Joel helped this be a seamless process. Then a few days before our wedding the singer who was originally supposed to sing during the ceremony got COVID. I called Joel in a panic and he said no problem we’ll take care of it. They were able to step in and help make our ceremony exactly how we envisioned. They’re incredible musicians and they know how to bring the party! We wanted people on the dance floor all night and thats exactly what Class Act did 9even with an awesome encore at the end!). We lost track of how many people complimented how great the band was. Their list of song options has everything you could want for any style of wedding. They also learned two song of our choice that were not on the set list. They’re an awesome band and even a better group of people and you absolutely will be happy with your decision to choose the class act for your big day. Thanks you Class Act for helping us have the best wedding we could have ever imagined!!

Don’t sleep on Class Act for your Philly-area wedding!! They’re a pleasure to work with from the moment you express interest all the way through packing up on wedding night. Joel, the band manager, stays on top of details and quickly responds to messages. Next to our venue coordinator, he was easily our most attentive vendor. I love that the band adopted Honeybook for planning purposes. This made it so easy to schedule appointments, share details via questionnaires, upload files and communicate.
Their song list has something for everyone! Before seeking wedding music, we were nervous that bands might not be up on the latest songs. We were also nervous a band wouldn’t have specific songs we wanted for special dances and moments. You don’t have to worry about either of those things with Class Act! Their song list covers all genres and time periods plus they will learn two new songs for you. We ended up incorporating Class Act all the way through from ceremony to cocktail hour to reception, and we don’t regret it one bit! I also loved how comfortable they were engaging with the crowd and how quick they were on their feet. At one point, I asked the band to announce a Penn State graduate picture taking place. Not only did that immediately add that into their script, but also they busted out the PSU fight song!
Class Act was truly the highlight of our wedding!

We found Class Act through google searches online. Joel the band owner was awesome through the entire wedding planning process. He helped us tremendously with organizing the entire wedding flow. The set list they played at the wedding was perfect for Joe (my husband), our guests, & I. During the entire wedding the dance floor was overflowing, and everyone was enjoying the night... even my grandfather. They offer to personally learn two songs of your choice. Our first dance song was just perfect! Class Act was the hit of the wedding, everyone was raving about how much fun they had with the band! If you're thinking about booking Class Act for your event do it! You won't regret your decision!

Class Act performed for a graduation party I held for myself after I finished my PhD. They were amazing! From start to finish, they were very professional, energetic, and flexible. They are a great group of musicians and so many people commented about how good and fun they were. They played so many of the songs I requested and also were spot on with the choices they selected themselves. They even learned a new song for the party! They were perfect and I highly recommend them without reservation for any event you may be hosting!

We booked with Class Act because we had heard from family members local to PA that they were amazing—and wow, did Class Act deliver! We had the most incredible experience with Class Act. From the beginning, Joel guided us along the journey to the wedding, and was patient with us as we agonized over decisions big and small—and provided lots of advice and time as we were planning for our big day. Class Act planned a full personalized set list for us after learning our preferences and visions for the wedding reception.
After an incredible planning experience, Class Act helped our day go off without a hitch. After our planner got Covid last minute, Joel stepped in and made sure the day ran smoothly. He was so integral to the organization of our day, and his MC’ing was fabulous. Class Act provided beautiful ceremony music, awesome smooth jazz during cocktail hour, 2 learned songs for first dances, and a 4-hour full band set at the reception. The dance floor was full the ENTIRE time, and Class Act stole the show. Super high energy, great crowd engagement, a fabulous set list, and truly incredible musical skills blew everyone away. Our guests are still raving about the band and we couldn’t agree more! We HIGHLY recommend class act for your wedding or any event you might need live music for!

We had a phenomenal experience with Class Act!! From our first phone call with Joel, we knew that Class Act was the perfect fit for our 250-person wedding in April 2022. Not only did the band deliver an absolutely incredible performance across a wide range of genres, but they also were very attentive, personable, and committed to making our day special in every way possible. Joel made an effort to get to know us and our music preferences, and he was always available for a quick text or call. Behind the scenes, Joel made sure that every detail was covered, helped us plan the flow of our wedding reception, and used our recommendations to create the perfect playlist that kept our guests on the dance floor the entire night...ending with a "one more song" chant from both the youngest (21) and oldest in the room! No one wanted the night to end, and we've continued to receive compliments from our guests about our choice of band. The professionalism and skills of Class Act are apparent. We are truly grateful for Class Act for making our day special and for being a pleasure to work with. We only have good things to say, and we would highly recommend them!

Class Act was absolutely AWESOME at our wedding!! From the second they started playing to the very last song of the night (an encore), the dance floor was packed with everyone from age 7 to age 90. We can’t even count the number of compliments we received on how great the band was. Joel was so easy to work with from the very first communication we had, and he made the planning process leading up to the day super easy and stress-free. The band learned two songs for us including a traditional Irish song, which they absolutely nailed! If we had to do it all over, we would hire Class Act again in a heartbeat.

Classact215 is amazing!!!! When we reached out to them, we didn’t know if it would be possible to actually make a band work for our wedding. The lead of the band, Joel, was amazing throughout the entire journey. He helped us plan everything out including the reception timelines, took as many phone calls as we needed to, and even had his band learn 2 custom songs for us! They were so awesome every ... step of the way. The day of they were INCREDIBLE! I have a musical background, and I will say that these folks are very professional and skilled. They were so good and one of our guests said that their rendition of killing me softly “was the most stunning version they ever heard”. They were incredible and the life of the party! I was dancing so hard - I flew into the air and split my pants toward the end 😂 My wife and I had so much fun, and all of our guests said it the entertainment was incredible. My favorite part is that these musicians are all teachers and personable, and you feel like your working with a small businesses. This is not some big entertainment company looking to squeeze money out of you and only give you the bare minimum. They will give you their heart and put all their time and energy into making the day custom, unique, and special.

Class Act could not have been better to work with from start to finish. Joel is easy to communicate with, and they worked really hard to make our reception go exactly according to plan — from building the setlist with the help of our preferences and requests (including expertly learning two songs we asked for) to wedding party introductions to making the night run on time to, simply put, being an excellent band — all at a reasonable cost. They sounded great, the dance floor was active and they did a great job interacting with guests. We lost track of how many people told us they loved the band. Thanks to Class Act for helping us have the best wedding we could have imagined.

We loved Class Act! Joel was so easy to work with. We were able to customize our playlist and choose the songs we wanted for our specific dances. Our guests are still talking about how awesome the band was! We had such a great time and I know it was mostly because of Class Act! We highly recommend choosing them to celebrate your big day!

Honestly would give them 10 stars if we could! They were so helpful and so nice while planning and while at the wedding!
We got so many compliments from our guests about how great this band was, by the amount of dancing we could tell how much fun everyone was having!
You'd be crazy to not book them!

Class Act was AMAZING! All our friends and family we raving about how great the music was! They had the dance floor packed the entire reception :) Beyond that, they were incredible to work with. Joel really helped us navigate many situations from sound for the ceremony to moving dancing outside due to COVID restrictions (which turned out beautiful!). I can't recommend them more. They are true professionals and so easy to work with!

Class Act was such an amazing part of our day. Joel and the rest of the band were so easy to work with, and absolutely crushed the two songs we asked them to learn. They conveniently have all of their songs they know listed on their website, and all we had to do is complete a short survey a few months prior to our day for them to capture all the music we’d like to hear.
Pricing was extremely reasonable. Some of the quotes we received from prospective bands were double the cost. You can tell they do this because they purely enjoy it.
Thanks again Joel and the rest of the Class Act crew for making our big day that much more special!

ou, and I'm glad we were able to be a part of your big day! You are correct - we definitely love doing this. But I'll also say that when you are working with awesome couples (like yourselves :o) it makes it that much more rewarding.
Thanks again for choosing Class Act and for taking the time to review the band. We all wish you nothing but the best in the future.
Cheers!

Class Act is not only an incredibly talented band, but also a team of professionals. Even with postponing our wedding and constant uncertainty of COVID up until the month before our wedding, Class Act and particularly the owner, Joel was extremely professional, communicative, accommodating and thoughtful. At the beginning of the reception, they grabbed everyone's attention with a few fun, dance-worthy songs. Then they kept the party going the entire reception with a variety of lively, crowd-pleasers. My husband and I danced the entire night, as did many of our family and friends! Class Act truly is a Class Act and the best way to bring energy and life to your celebration!

rough the craziness of COVID and making live music a priority for your wedding. That means so much to us. It was a beautiful venue and a fantastic evening, and it's always fun to have a floor full of dancers (and I mean that literally :o). But in the end, it was all about Mr. Brightside!
Thanks again for the review, and I wish you both nothing but the best!

Class Act was so great to work with from the very start! Joel took into account all of our requests and they knocked it out of the park during the entire reception. We had the dance floor filled the whole night! The best part about the band is their variety of music, the energy they bring, and of course their musical talent.
I cannot express enough how much better Class Act makes your special night and I would recommend them to anyone that is having their wedding in the area.

This band was everything we could've asked for and more for our wedding. We felt strongly about having a band rather than a DJ, but didn't want to go too over budget. Class Act was the answer to our prayers and then some. They have some of the most talented musicians you could imagine, they sounded amazing, and we are still getting compliments and mentions, unprovoked, about how great our wedding band was - three months later. They also played our cocktail hour (piano and sax) and were SO GOOD. They were so organized and were one vendor that I felt I didn't need to stress about- everything was seamless and worry-free. Not joking, just stop looking for another band right now and book Class Act you will NOT regret it!!

NSE are simply awesome! They played at my best friends wedding a few years ago. From the moment they started to play until the last song the dance floor was packed. NSE have an amazing range of diverse musical genres they cover. I see them play any opportunity I get and would highly recommend checking out New Solution Entertainment for anyone looking for a live band to preform at a party or wedding!

This band works the room from the second their set begins! Not only are they musically talented, but every band member has a great personality that helps to get everyone up on their feet. The tunes can vary from any era and any genre, and the versatility of each musician is an incredible asset for any performance. Highly recommended! :-)
