My wife and I had a tremendous wedding, and the Don Eaton Band was a huge part of it. They were not only professional, prompt, friendly, and entertaining, but they made us feel so special. From start to finish, their music and energy set the perfect tone for the evening. Our wedding night will always be a night to remember, and we want to sincerely thank the Don Eaton Band for making it so magical.
Best decision we made = hiring Don Eaton Band -- the most AMAZING wedding band!
The best decision we made for our wedding was to hire the Don Eaton Band. The dance floor was ABSOLUTELY PACKED for the entire evening. Guests were in awe of their signing abilities -- completely floored with how good they were! When I see guests now (almost a month past the wedding), they still rave about the band! (Note: Our reception was in Bethlehem, PA, so do not let distance deter you. The entire band was there early for set-up and was professional from the first song to the last.)
Don and his bandmates had high energy all night long!
When the last song was played, guests shouted, "One more song! One more song! One more song!" I have never experienced this at any other wedding.
I guarantee you & your guests will have the time of your life if you hire the Don Eaton Band. I've given out their name at least 20 times since the wedding.
Once we get more pictures back, I will definitely update these as they do not capture just how magnificent they were.
Don Eaton Band is nothing short of spectacular!
WOW. Don Eaton Band left us in complete awe following our wedding this spring. Their energy was contagious, their enthusiasm was elevated and their range of genres, instruments and vocals was completely unmatched! We couldn’t have been more impressed by them and were so fortunate to have them as our wedding band. The dance floor was packed ALL night. I’ll never forget when they played Tennessee Whiskey by Chris Stapleton and I was convinced Chris was on the stage. AMAZING!
The Don Eaton Band helped to create an amazing experience for our wedding. They knew exactly how to get the guests on the dance floor and led the night with professionalism. They played to the crowd, for those on the dance floor, as well as encouraging all to join in on the fun.
Don and his band are amazing! So thoughtful and helpful during the planning process. Their talent is truly unmatched and our guests are still raving a few weeks after our wedding! Cannot recommend Don Eaton Band enough! We had a packed dance floor the entire evening.
Don Eaton band was absolutely incredible for our wedding. Every member of the band is so talented and did such a great job on every song and the dance floor was packed all night. Don also really helped us plan our reception timeline in a way that would flow well and keep everyone energized and having fun – I actually think this was the biggest thing that made our wedding feel so special and fun. As soon as I spoke to Don, I knew he understood exactly what I was looking for. They learned our first dance song and did an amazing job. Months later, people still tell us that Don Eaton Band is the best wedding they have ever seen, and that they had so much fun at our wedding. My husband and I had the best time of our lives. The band was probably the most important vendor to me, and Don Eaton absolutely blew us away.
The Don Eaton Band was fantastic for our son's wedding. They provided a list of songs beforehand and we chose our favorites. They played all of them and so much more! Their musicians are top notch and singers right on pitch. The Don Eaton Band was also a good value, providing 10 musicians for 5 hours. We loved the variety of music they played. They kept the whole wedding dancing the entire night. We would definitely use them again!
Don was absolutely everything we could have hoped for and more. The enture night was a smash hit and Don was the master of pushing every right button to ensure everyone had a blast!
From our pre-ceremony welcome music to the last song of the night we had a fantastic evening with the Don Eaton Band! They played with such great energy and so many of our guests told us how incredible the band sounded. We developed a great plan with Don and were so happy to see how smooth and fun it made our big day!
From start to finish, Don Eaton and the band made the night an unforgettable experience. There was no down time. I am a musician, and was blown away. Don "checked all of the boxws"
Don Eaton Band was by far one of our favorite vendors to work with and our reception would not have been the same without them. Our guests were on the dance floor all night long and so many people raved about how great of a band they were. Don was so easy to work with and really took the time to understand what we wanted to make it the perfect night for us. We would choose Don Eaton Band again and again and will definitely recommend them to all of our friends.
This band is absolutely incredible! They made our wedding celebration so memorable and we have received countless compliments from our guests saying that "the Don Eaton Band is the best wedding band we have ever heard". Our families and friends were completely blown away and as the evening wrapped up, we wished we had extended the band and the bar for another hour or so. From start to finish, Don helps guide you and ensure that your special day is exactly what you want. Don's planning guide helped us prep for the hours of conversation we had to make decisions for our wedding. His knowledge and experience was extremely useful and he makes you feel like a priority because he really cares about your vision for your wedding. The band had everyone on the dance floor from start to finish, played the songs we requested, and read the room perfectly. There is no better choice than the Don Eaton Band and we could not have been happier!
This band is FANTASTIC! They truly made the evening wonderful. They read the crowd and many people were on the dance floor from start to finish. They listened to our requests. We could not have been happier. Many people have told us that they are the best wedding band that they have ever heard!
The Don Eaton Band is absolutely incredible!!! Don is extremely talented, knowledgeable and thoughtful. His well designed planning guide helped make the cocktail hour and reception an absolute breeze and ensured there was no added stress. The music was absolutely phenomenal. All of our guests were dancing all night and many said their feet hurt for days after the wedding. Everyone was extremely complementary of the live music. There is no better choice than the Don Eaton Band. We were so glad to have them play at our wedding and they truly made it an unforgettable night!
From the start of the planning through the execution on the day of, Don Eaton band is incredible to work with. They guide you to make decisions that will ensure your day is exactly as you want it to flow. Don has an incredible passion, and it is clear when you talk with him. He makes you feel like your wedding is the only wedding he is working on and he puts the effort in to making it unforgettable. The day of the wedding Don is in charge in the best way. He works with your venue and makes the wedding flow. We had tons of comments on how amazing the band was. AND WE AGREE. Book Don Eaton for you wedding...immediately!
All I can say is WOW. I had high expectations for the Don Eaton Band because of all their incredible reviews, but they still managed to blow us away. Hiring them was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Our guests could not stop raving about how good they were. Some guests said they had moments they forgot it was live music because it was just that good. Our dance floor was packed the whole night. They had such a great mix of songs and genres. They even learned a new song for our first dance. Having gone to a few other weddings right after ours, I realized how important the pacing of the evening is -- Don did such a great job with that. Don was also a pleasure to work with in the planning stage. I can't overstate how amazing it was to be able to put my full faith in Don to plan an incredible set list and get everyone dancing. This band is so talented and so professional. If you want to blow your guests away, you have to hire the Don Eaton Band.
The Don Eaton Band was the best decision we made for our wedding. They could not have sounded better. They created the BEST party for our special night. They learned our first dance song and KILLED it! The planning process was so easy. They were truly incredible and could not recommend them enough!
We had DEB at our wedding on 9/24/22. Where do I begin? Don’s incredible attention to detail truly put my mind at ease from our first meeting together. He meets with you and goes over everything from start to finish. On the day of, DEB took care of our ceremony music and audio, cocktail hour music and of course the reception. Our guests were dancing NON STOP and I got so many compliments on how they were amazing. Music is arguably one of the most important parts of a wedding and DEB made our wedding unforgettable. Thank you for everything!!! Would fully 100% recommend to anyone considering them for their special day.
Hiring the Don Eaton band was the absolute best decision we could have made - they were truly the highlight of our wedding! Our expectations were incredibly high after being lucky enough to hear the Don Eaton Band play at another wedding, and they more than exceeded those expectations. Every member of the band is so talented, and we and our guests had an absolute blast dancing to and enjoying their music (as evidenced by how full the dance floor was all night!). Our favorite thing, though, was how happy and excited each member of the band seemed to be there - we really felt like they were having so much fun. Don dedicated a lot of time to us in the lead up to the wedding to develop the timeline for the reception and to arrange the music for our first dance and our father-bride and mother-son dances. We loved their setlist during the wedding itself - he really paid attention to the type of music we wanted and is an expert in entertaining a crowd. We received so many compliments on the Don Eaton Band, and feel so lucky that we got to experience their talent and energy during our wedding.
Don Eaton and his band lit our wedding on fire. They read the room, felt the vibe, and carried our reception into the night with incredible music and performance. Don is extremely detailed and well-planned. Together, we crafted the music and vibe for the wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Their wide range of songs kept the night flowing and interesting. While incredibly talented, Don and the band never felt the need to be the stars of the show, and instead set the stage and let the night be about us. That being said, all of our guests also had great things to say about them when the night was finished. We hope to attend an event with them in the future.
Planning our wedding at Overbrook Golf Club & not living in the Philly area was a bit intimidating, especially when it came to choosing our vendors. If you're a bride like me, you're probably scrolling these reviews closely, and I can ensure you that you can't go wrong with choosing the Don Eaton Band. They are INCREDIBLE!!! Don & his team were very helpful, responsive, and professional leading up to our big day. Then, when the big day arrived, they truly had every single one of our guests out on the dance floor. We received so many compliments about their fun music choices, pure talent, and the energy/joy/excitement they added to our special day. 10/10 would recommend the Don Eaton Band - we chose them without seeing them perform live, and we surely made the absolute best choice!
You HAVE to book the Don Eaton Band for your next event. We booked them for our April 2022 wedding and they did not disappoint. Don is so easy to work with, thinks of literally every detail and spends a lot of time with you to prep and plan for your event. Every time we spoke with Don on the phone, he put us at ease. For our ceremony, Don suggested that the officiant and groom wear small mics under their lapels so there were no microphones/stands in the photos which I thought was brilliant. When I spoke, the band turned up the groom and officiant’s mics so I could clearly be heard without wearing a mic. He had so many other great ideas for our wedding, and he really made our night go so smoothly. On top of all of his great suggestions, the band sounded INCREDIBLE. Our guests were raving about the band – the dance floor was packed. We really enjoyed working with Don for our wedding – this band is a must book. Thank you, Don Eaton Band!
The Don Eaton Band delivered the most amazing entertainment for our daughter’s wedding reception and was able to provide the wedding of her dreams. Professional, entertaining, and able to tailor the music to the crowd, the band had everyone dancing the entire night. From the planning process through the last song Don Eaton and his band exceeded all of our expectations. We had so many compliments on “the best party/reception ever”. Thanks to the Don Eaton Band and our venue at Overbrook Golf Club. Class Act !
We had the BEST experience ever with The Don Eaton Band. From start to finish Don and the team we’re completely on top of it. Don eased any concern I could have ever had. They truly want to make this the best night ever- from cocktail hour to the reception no one left the dance floor. They understand exactly what you want and truly listen. We could not recommend The Don Eaton band enough- they truly made our night one we and our guests won’t forget!
If you want your wedding to be one big dance party-look no further than the Don Eaton Band!! They were seriously the best wedding band ever-our guests even said they were the best band they’ve ever heard!! We’ve even had guests reach out following our wedding to book them for their own! Don is so professional, open minded and fun to work with! He created the perfect timeline for our day and made sure our guests were on the dance floor the whole time. Nothing but good things to say about the whole crew. I wish we could do it all over again!! Thanks again DEB. Most fun night ever!!
As we write this, my husband and I STILL have sore feet from dancing so much at our wedding. All thanks to the Don Eaton Band. Don takes the time to understand your song requests and the mood you wish to set on your wedding day. He goes through everything thoroughly and provides you with a schedule and music clips for songs not in the band’s repertoire so you know what to expect and you can practice special dances. The band truly gets better every time we hear them. So many of our guests commented on their talent and everyone had the best time dancing the entire night. People barely sat down and took a break from dancing, and that is exactly what my husband and I wanted. We truly had the time of our life on our wedding day, and we owe it all to Don Eaton Band 😊.
If you are looking for a band in the Philadelphia area, BOOK DON EATON BAND!!! They are insanely talented, responsive, professional, timely, and you will not be disappointed. They know how to keep the party going! Our dance floor was packed the entire time and quite frankly we didn't want them to leave at the end! It was an absolute pleasure working with Don and the rest of the band! You all were FANTASTIC!!!
I attended a wedding 7 years ago where The Don Eaton Band played at the reception and immediately knew I wanted them to play at one of my daughter’s weddings when the day came. That day was Saturday 11.20.2021! I can not give enough praise and accolades to The Don Eaton Band for their talent! The dance floor was always full of happy guests dancing to a variety of music! The Don Eaton Band is a wonderful choice for a wedding or any event where live music is needed! They are friendly and personable and most of all talented! I highly recommend contacting The Don Eaton Band for your wedding as they are pleasure to work with!
The only words I have are WOW!!! The Don Eaton Band played our wedding on October 8,2021. Don went absolutely above and beyond to ensure that everything went exactly how we had envisioned. Don is not only an amazing artist but is an absolute sweetheart and a pleasure to work with. We got so many compliments on the band's performance on the night of the wedding. I would recommend the Don Eaton band for your wedding or any other event that you are planning. They are incredibly talented and organized. I can't thank Don and his team enough for how special they made our day!!!
The Don Eaton Band was fantastic! The best decision we made for our daughter’s wedding. They kept everyone dancing the whole night and were a pleasure to work with the entire planning process. Don spent a lot of time with daughter and son-in-law planning the progression of the evening, helped them choose a song they loved for their first dance, and then perfectly kept the evening going with just the right song selections all night. We hated to see the night end. All our guests raved about the band and wanted their info. They are the best!
There is no other way to describe it... Don Eaton and his band are simply the best wedding band out there. We can't tell you how many of our wedding reception guests have commented weeks after how great the evening was, largely driven by the band's addition to the atmosphere of the evening. They are truly experts in their craft -- they of course selected our song preferences before hand and performed each to a level where if you weren't looking, you would think it would be the real song's band performing and not a Don Eaton cover. Further, Don knows how to read a room. Based on the energy from the dance floor, attendees, etc., the band expertly decides what song to tee up next. We can't thank the Don Eaton band enough for making our wedding experience truly memorable - if given the chance to hire them, you surely will not be disappointed!
Don Eaton Band was one of the best wedding decisions my husband and I made. We found them through a coworker recommendation who had also used DEB, then once we heard them play we were sold. Don will be your main contact and it was a pleasure working with him. He made sure he got all of the little details right prior to the big day so it was nothing short of perfect. We have had numerous wedding guests reach out about how great the band was. We even last minute extended our wedding and the dance floor was still packed at the end of the night. Don Eaton Band is the best in the game and honestly they made our wedding the party we were hoping for.
Don Eaton Band was the first vendor we hired for our Oct. wedding. We saw them play another wedding a few years back and always remembered how amazing and high energy they were. The way the wedding flowed was perfect. What I didn't know then was that Don spends time with each of his couples to ensure that the timeline and flow of the event is SPOT ON and everything is exactly how the couple wants. Being a planner myself, I really appreciated this and it made us feel at ease knowing we were in good hands. We also had a special request to have a relative sing our first dance song and Don worked with her to ensure everything was perfect. The band was incredible and so many people commented on how good they were! I can't recommend them enough!! Thank you Don and team!!!
Don Eaton Band is nothing short of fabulous! This band is IT! We booked DEB for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, and it was the best decision we made! We started receiving compliments on the band during cocktail hour and constantly throughout the evening as we visited each table during dinner. A few of our guests enjoyed the band so much they asked for business cards for their future events. Don has been doing this many years, he knows how to make the party perfect and how to get people on the dance floor! I am so grateful he had lots of music choice suggestions because I am totally unfamiliar with wedding ceremony music, which turned out absolutely lovely! For the reception, I had a few requests which Don, and the band performed seamlessly and without question. They learned our first dance song Forever After All by Luke Combs and they played Sugar by Maroon 5 for our cake cutting which was SO AWESOME! Our first dance was truly an unforgettable moment and the song was played perfectly! Another request that I had made before the wedding was that I didn't want the music volume to be too loud, since this can be common among some wedding bands. Don understood this concern completely (which made me feel extremely confident!) and did a fantastic job on the wedding night, the volume was perfect! My favorite thing about the Don Eaton Band is their ability to sound EXACTLY like the actual recorded version of the songs they are performing! The talent among all the band members is truly remarkable and you will not be disappointed. I would highly recommend this band for anyone who is considering hiring a band for their wedding! Thank you DEB!
Don Eaton band was incredible! We’ll worth the wait. From our first meet pre-Covid through numerous postponements Don was with us every step of the way! The night of the wedding the band was energetic and kept the party rocking. Our guests never left the dance floor. There was a positive energy that everyone felt. My daughter , her husband and our entire family can not thank them enough. I highly recommend the Don Eaton band !!
Don was absolutely the best! From planning the flow of the wedding night, maximizing fun, to the sound of the band, everything was perfect. We received nothing but praise from our guests. The band really made our night special. Would easily recommend!
The band was absolutely amazing. The dance floor was packed the whole night. Everyone was so impressed with the band.
The Don Eaton Band was absolutely fantastic for our wedding. The entire process was extremely easy and very professional. I don't think the music could have been any better. He had all of our guests dancing the entire night. Thank you for making our night special!
This band was amazing! Our guests danced all night. The band members are beyond talented, engaging, and really interact with the couple and the guests. Guests are still telling us how great the band was. Would use them again!!!
We can’t say enough positive things about the Don Eaton Band! They were absolutely amazing and did a fantastic job at our wedding! We had numerous compliments from guests saying they were the best band they have ever heard at a wedding! Don was so great to work with and helped us outline our whole evening. The band kept people excited and moving all night! Highly recommend booking them ASAP!
Don was incredible as the MC and the band sounded amazing all night! Our entire party was on the dance floor the whole night dancing and we even had a few guests tell us they couldn't fit a few times because it was so packed! Everyone told us after that the band was amazing too. Don was so much fun to work with and plan out exactly what we wanted. He learned our musical taste as a couple and really tailored everything he played to fit our style. Also, our wedding was in Central NJ and as a Philadelphia based band, they had no issues traveling up to play at our wedding. Would highly recommend this band for your wedding as the band really makes or breaks the party and Don Eaton will definitely make the party! Very happy we chose them to represent us for our special day, would pick them again in a heartbeat.
We had an incredible time celebrating our wedding with the Don Eaton Band ! They were so accommodating to all our our requests for entrances, dedicated songs, and the overall vibe we were going for. We got so many compliments from guests that the band was awesome and the best they’d heard at a wedding. I would highly recommend the Don Eaton Band to anyone looking for a band for their wedding!
From the moment we heard DEB at a friend's wedding, we knew we wanted to hire them for our wedding, and they fully delivered on that faith. Don is so professional, courteous, and fun that he really makes the experience a joy. He LISTENS to you, and is able to translate the "vibe" for the wedding that you want to convey into the performance of the band. We also had DEB play at our cocktail hour and the music there was similarly fantastic. Finally, our wedding was by surprise disrupted by 15 minutes of fireworks halfway through - DEB adjusted seamlessly and every guest thought that the fireworks were just part of the wedding - another testament to the professionalism and responsibility of this great team of performers. They are the best of the best!
Look no further than the Don Eaton Band! They were the first vendor that we hired for our September wedding at the Jonn James Audubon Center since once we heard them play, we knew we couldn't have any other band ... and we were so right! Don and the band absolutely CRUSHED it. I can't even count how many compliments we got on our wedding because of the Don Eaton Band -- every single compliment highlighted how amazing and fun the band was, and how enjoyable our wedding was because of the music. From the quartet at the ceremony and cocktail hour to the full-blown band at the reception, we were so blown away with the quality of the music and the energy of the band. Don was also amazing to work with; he was so knowledgeable (of the music and of the ideal flow for the wedding), and every interaction with him confirmed that we had hired the right vendor since we knew we were in the best hands with Don. If you want your wedding to be a true party (our wedding guests were up on the dance floor the entire time, from the moment the reception started through the end of the evening) and for all your guests to go home raving about your wedding, then do yourself a favor and hire the Don Eaton Band! 10/10!
Don was supportive, creative and thoughtful in the preparation stage. The band executed the plan and far exceeded our expectations. The most important component of the reception experience is the band and the Don Eaton Band made our experience awesome. We received multiple compliments on the band. I highly recommend the Don Eaton Band.
The Don Eaton Band takes entertainment to the next level. Aside from their amazing instrumentals and wowing vocalists, they provide an amazing flow to the overall day (from the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception). There was never a dull moment and each song was appropriately picked for what was going on at the time to make everything feel right. They are extremely accommodating and detailed in putting everything together leading up to the day as well :)
Phenomenal. We were optimistic and Don and the band exceeded expectations. Don worked with us to craft an awesome ceremony and reception - he took time to listen to our ideas and priorities and consistently offered helpful advice. The band blew the crowd away - all our family and friends rave about them and a few picked up contact information at the end of the night. Specific highlights: the music was amazing; the band learned our first dance song and nailed it; we had a cocktail-style reception (no seated dinner) and the band expertly paced the night.
The Don Eaton Band totally exceeded our expectations! We were in a rush to book a band and took a chance booking them prior to hearing them live based solely off reviews and what we had heard online. After our wedding, I am floored that we got so lucky that they were even available! Guests are still talking about how amazing they were, asking how we found them and already trying to book them! Don made the entire process easy and I was astonished with how much he truly cared, paid attention to every detail and wanted to get to know us leading up to the wedding. He even took a request I made at midnight the night before the wedding and played it! You can not go wrong hiring the Don Eaton Band, they added in making our day one for the books! We can not thank you Don and the entire Band enough!
Cheers,
Michaela and Gary
Don't wait, don't look anywhere else, just book Don Eaton Band right now and you absolutely will not regret it!!! Besides the fact that the band sounds absolutely amazing and had our guests on the dance floor the ENTIRE night, Don is so extremely professional, thorough, and detail-oriented. He thinks about the entire event - not just the one part that the band is responsible for, which is so helpful when you have a million details to consider.
Don is skilled at getting an understanding of your style and the vibe of your wedding and working with you to ensure that vibe is reflected throughout the evening. We had Don play during the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception - he helped us think through the songs/logistics played for each moment of the wedding from the processional and recessionals of the ceremony, to cocktail hour, to the timing of events and songs played during the reception.
The bottom line is that besides all that, the band sounds INCREDIBLE and they have such a vast repertoire, that they will have songs that undoubtedly appeal to all your guests. They were also willing to learn songs that had significance to us, which made it even more special. Our guests could not stop raving about the band and how the only regret of the wedding was that we wished we had more time with the band. We 100% recommend Don Eaton Band for everyone looking to have an amazing time with their guests on the dance floor!
The Don Eaton Band is the best in the business! They are super responsive and easy to work with--our planning phone call with Don really helped me understand the flow of our night and assured me that the wedding was going to be a blast--which it was. I can't tell you how many people commented on how amazing the band was--definitely a highlight. They understand what songs to play and when, they are masters at reading the crowd. We had almost everyone at our 200 person wedding dancing...if that doesn't speak to how incredible they are, I don't know what else does! They are true professionals--we had some issues with the power (venue issues) and they stepped up to help fix the problem, going above and beyond what they were expected to do! They went with the flow and swiftly handled the issue without most of the guests even realizing what happened. Before I booked the Don Eaton Band, I had seen them at another wedding, and I knew that they are truly the best out there, and was absolutely amazed at their performance at our wedding!
