Groovin' You was an awesome company to deal with, great communication throughout the entire process and they handled the day of coordination so well. The Limit was our band and they were AWESOME. Seriously, if you're considering them, just do it. It will be the best decision you make. We asked for an upbeat, high energy vibe for dancing throughout the entire night and they delivered beyond belief! No one left the dance floor for the entire night and our guests gave us compliment after compliment on the band. The Limit was one of the best decisions that we made for our entire wedding, I can't recommend them enough.

They brought such amazing energy to our wedding, and helped to make it the most memorable fun night of our lives. Our dance floor was packed all night!

The BEST wedding band company with the best selection of bands. We could not believe it. We have friends trying to “pool money” just to throw a party and hire our wedding band so that they can re live our reception. Our wedding band was “soundtrack central.” They traveled all the way to boston from NYC because we wanted that specific band and Groovin you entertainment was nothing short of amazing in making every detail perfect. We truly had the best wedding and they aren’t kidding : the music makes the whole day!
Any questions?

If we could have imagined the perfect wedding reception… this was better! From start to finish, working with Clique was the epitome of professionalism. From initial email communications to the sound at the ceremony, to the absolutely incredible performance at the reception, we couldn’t have been happier. Our friends and family are still raving about the reception… when was the last time you heard guests at a wedding call for an encore?! ...or got to enjoy the bride rapping with one of the lead vocalists?! Thank you to Clique for making our wedding night one we will remember forever!

They were amazing. I couldn't recommend them more. After the wedding, at least three people asked us for their information because they wanted to use them as their wedding band. The best flattery!
1/13/2024 • Cydney W
They were amazing! Got everyone on the dance floor and kept them dancing. They had a great variety of music. I highly recommend them

We saw Clique at one of my friends weddings, and my now husband insisted that we needed them playing at ours. They read the room, kept the party going, and were great to work with leading up to the wedding! Absolutely worth the $.

We chose The Limit as our wedding band based on a recommendation from a friend and could not have been more pleased with the decision. They did a great job MCing our reception and kept the energy high and dance floor packed the entire time! Working with this company was seamless leading up to our big day, and we felt very confident that they knew exactly what they were doing. We received so many compliments and would recommend their services to anyone!

Hired Clique for our wedding earlier this year and they were better than even our high expectations! Easy to work with and just an awesome band all around that had a great feel for what songs to play and kept the dance floor packed all night. Could not have asked for more at our wedding and Clique was well worth it!

10/10 wedding band! The Limit absolutely delivered and beyond! From the professionalism of rounding up and giving direction to my wedding party pre-introductions, to the flexibility of working with a moving timeline and last minute switch to an indoor reception, the adorableness of essentially adopting a new band member in my cousin's 6 year old daughter who they allowed to jump up on stage to dance and rock out her glow stick guitar with them... And not to forget the pure talent and phenomenal set list curation. For our "last dance", we had a special request for the band to learn an acoustic cover of a Blink-182 song and then transition into the normal, rock version. It was SO good and SO much fun. Earlier in the night, they had played another Blink-182 song and before playing mentioned how they knew the bride and groom really liked this artist. There were just these "little moments" and interactions they had with us and our guests that amplified the fun x 10 and made our day feel so, so special.

"Absolutely CRUSHED IT." That's all our guests could say to us after the event. The Groovin' You team not only is a team of super talented musicians, they are also the nicest people, total lives of the party, and supremely dedicated to your guests having an awesome time. We first say them at a bar in Boston where they had the entire room dancing and singing. If you really want to get the party started these are definitely the guys to do that. For us they opened up the floor with an amazing "Juice" cover, slayed the Mother/Son dance with an epic simple man rendition and challenged Beyonce for the best dance to "Single Ladies" - Take our word for it, this is the band you want at your wedding.

Groovin You was AMAZING! We were blown away by their talent and energy. We heard from so many of our guests that they were the best wedding band they've ever seen/heard, and we agree! For that reason alone I would strongly recommend them to anyone in the area. They were also very professional throughout the process.
Totally unprompted from us, they did an awesome mash up of a Hamilton song with an Eminem song (I don't even like Eminem but it sounded great, my husband is obsessed with Hamilton) and threw in some very recent hits too (Old Town Road etc).
My only complaint/criticism is that the first set (out of two) did not seem to use any of the songs that we had selected from their song list, and in fact included a number that I don't like at all. It would be helpful to be more clear with the customer that the song list that we select is much more of a general guide than a specific list that they will guarantee will be played... unless that was just a mistake? We spent a lot of time going through the 6 page song list they sent us and figuring out which ones we wanted to hear. Despite this, in the end it was obvious that the guests had a great time, and we would hire them again without hesitation.

If you want your guests to tell you that you wedding band was the best wedding band they’ve ever heard, then hire Groovin’ You! We knew we wanted a band at our wedding since they bring a whole new level of energy to the party, and are so happy we chose Groovin’ You. Working with Wilson Stevens was a breeze - their whole team was responsive and professional. As we got closer to the wedding and started planning out what we wanted, the band was super helpful at bringing our vision to life. We had some random song requests, and they pulled it all off! They played their hearts out, and interacted with the crowd so well. Our guests didn’t leave the dance floor all night and have continued to rave about how awesome Groovin’ You was even months after our wedding. Thank you, Groovin’ you!

Everyone came up to me and said "This is by far the best wedding band i have ever seen!" Groovin You was one of the single best decisions i made while planning my wedding. They were incredible and set the whole tone of the wedding! From the prep calls, to helping me with my timeline, to following up after, i cannot speak highly enough about this group. They were on top of all the little requests I had and even interacted with the audience by playing the sax in the crowd and brought my husband i and i up on stage at the end! Finally they learned three songs, one of them being our first dance and performed them so beautifully. Thank you so much to the whole team at Groovin You. If i could give you 10+ stars i would!

We picked Groovin’ You after an exhaustive search of options. We loved that they played all the top hits on the radio and had a lot of energy for a good party. Colin was great and a really good point of contact. He guided us through all the decisions we had to make for the night and worked with our wedding coordinator to ensure they were on the same page. We even had a day-of change and he accommodated it perfectly without a hitch, which was amazing. I can’t say enough good things about them - and the music was incredible! They kept the dance floor packed the entire night and really knew how to work the crowd. We had many compliments about how great they were, including many of the other vendors.

Groovin’ You played at our July wedding, and they were absolutely fantastic! We went to see them play at a downtown Boston bar, and after the first song, we knew we wanted to hire them. The band was super accommodating and flexible, and Colin was in constant communication with us leading up to the wedding. Our wedding night was so much fun because of Groovin’ You. They did an amazing job learning our first dance song. They played a great mix of music – oldies and new songs, and really kept the party going all night long. They had such great energy and really interacted with all the guests. Due to some unforeseen weather, our venue extended the reception for an extra half hour, and the band agreed to stay for a small fee, which was really appreciated. Everyone at the reception kept telling us how amazing the band was and that it was the best wedding they had ever been to. We would absolutely recommend Groovin’ You!

One of the major keys to having a fun, memorable wedding is AWESOME entertainment. Groovin’ You delivered just that for us and our guests at our wedding. Thankfully, I had seen the band perform before so I had no concerns about their talent and ability to bring the party with them. They did not disappoint as they kept the dance floor full from start to finish, carefully selecting the appropriate music to perform based on time of night/ crowd on the floor. The diversity in music they bring is so impressive— They are great at catering to what the crowd needs to hear. They were fantastic to work with, and after researching 10 or so bands, we found Groovin’ You to be a serious value given their skill and cost. Thank You to the whole Groovin’ You team for making our wedding celebration so memorable!

We had seen a number of wedding bands before we happened upon Groovin' You at a bar in Boston. The entire bar was jumping, and we wished that our wedding band could have this kind of energy. None of the bands we had seen were able to move the crowd or put forth the kind of youthful aesthetic and superior musicianship that we were looking for. When they said they would travel to Philadelphia, we knew we had found the perfect band. As a musician myself, it was important to me that Groovin' You perform the song I had written for my wife at our first dance. Not only did they learn it, they arranged it in such a way that it exceeded my wildest expectations. There was not a dry eye in the house. They were up front, professional, and executed with flair. Months later, we are still hearing from our guests about how "THAT BAND" was the highlight of the entire event. We're thinking about renewing our vows next year just so they can come play again :) We could not recommend Groovin' You more highly. They are the best wedding band that we - or any of our guests - had ever seen and an absolute pleasure to work with.

We finalized our wedding date in late November 2015 for an early April 2016 wedding. Without much time, we started to research bands and seemed lost and confused. While we were at our wedding venue’s food tasting, I was interviewing a possible photographer and I asked him who his favorite bands were to listen to while shooting. Without hesitation, the reply was “Groovin’ You are all the way from boston, but young, energetic and totally worth it!” From there, we seemed like we had a lead. Colin was easy to communicate with and helped us get into one of their live shows in Newport. In short time, they had the entire Newport House of Blues up and dancing. With three different lead vocalists hitting different genres of music, we knew they would be a hit! After hiring them they were easy to work with. They want to read the crowd and I could tell they made adjustments to play songs that would get people up dancing. They perfected the swing song we did our first dance to and it was amazing! Being in our mid 30’s we wanted an energetic band that our friends and family would enjoy hearing and want to get up and dance. Groovin’ You exceeded our expectations and were worth the cost! I strongly recommend that you stop searching and hire them as well!

Nick & Kristin made our wedding unforgettable! Their high energy attracted everyone to the dance floor and kept them dancing all night long. They have a few songs in which they have little dances to and all of our guests jumped right in. For the last song of the night, they invited myself and my groom on stage to sing a Journey song to our guests. It was a once in a life time experience seeing all of our guests singing and smiling at us. Everyone wanted an encore at the end of the night. We haven't stopped hearing how much our guests loved Groovin' You. The band was easy to work with, flexible, friendly and fun. They are a young talented group that if you don't scoop up quick will likely be booked up!
2/06/2016 • Christina G
From the moment we started planning our wedding, we knew that we wanted to hire a band to entertain our guests. After receiving a rave review on Groovin’ You from my sister, I viewed their website and could tell that they would be perfect! Their mix of classics and current pop hits provided the exact tone for our guests who all danced the night away! Colin was fantastic to work with and extremely accommodating! They learned our first dance song for us and truly made our reception the celebration we dreamt it to be. Thank you Groovin’ You for making our wedding a party to remember!
12/13/2015 • Kelly R
Do not book this band! They are supposedly breaking up and did not respond to me for months after I booked them last December. Only until I messaged them on Facebook, emailed multiple times, called almost every day for weeks, and texted the contact member did they even respond to tell me they are now not taking 2016 contracts. As great as I thought they were, they have been the biggest disappointment to work with. What a waste of time! I only gave a star because a rating is required.

Groovin' You were absolutely incredible. I married the man of my dreams in November (2015) and Groovin' You helped make the day perfect. First of all, they were so easy to work with. They responded to all my emails very quickly and were super helpful with all of my questions and requests. Our dance and the parent dances were all songs that were not on their song list (which is incredibly long). They had no problem performing them for us. They made the show truly for us. They did mashups of my favorite pop artists, they played TSwift for me and had me do the rap from Shake it Off with them (it was amazing!), and finally had us up on stage for the last song to sing. Groovin' You was fantastic and if you are even thinking about getting a band, DO IT! They really completed the night.

We hired Groovin You for our wedding on 10/17/2015 in Portsmouth, NH. I was first introduced to the band at a friend's wedding where I had never seen a band so energized and interactive with the crowd. I danced the entire night at that wedding and knee that's what I wanted for my own wedding. There was no need to seek any other band. We had the pleasure of seeing them play the night before our wedding at the Thirsty Moose where we brought over 100 people to check them out where they rocked the house and we danced the night away.
Colin and the band were wicked organized and made the formalities easy and transparent. They even offered to attempt to play with our bagpiper! Everything about them is fun. From the beginning of the reception people began to rave about how great their music and vocals were. The ENTIRE wedding (220 people) rocked the dance floor the whole night. At one point they had everyone on the floor followed by everyone jumping up and down. They covered every genre we requested with perfect execution.
I have been asked at least a dozen times since my wedding for their contact information. I would recommend them 100 times over. They truely created the exact atmosphere we hoped for at our wedding. So much so that the entire crowd shouted for "ONE MORE SONG" after the 2nd encore and after the reception center asked them to shut it down. They are professional and are worth every dollar. No other band can cater to all tastes in music like they did and provide 5+ continuous hours of fun like they do! Can't wait to see them at another friend's wedding on 08/27/2016!!

Groovin' You performed at our wedding in August and we were truly blown away! Not only is the band extremely talented, but they also know how to make a crowd come alive! We loved every second of their performance. They got all our guests up and dancing, both young and old. Colin really listened to the types of music we wanted played and the band took that and ran with it- selecting the perfect mix of songs to entertain our guests. What's also great about them is that they're a young fun group, which means they're able to play the latest music on the radio and not just the older more classic wedding tunes. We also had a few members perform during our cocktail hour, which was the perfect addition!
Having moved out of state, it was very difficult to research and find vendors remotely. This band came with the highest of recommendations from the various venues we visited as well as from some of our friends who had attended weddings with the band in the past. They are great communicators and stay on top of all your needs. Our guests are still raving about Groovin' You and we could not have been more happy with their performance.
10/27/2015 • Knottie53651802
Groovin' You exceeded our expectations from the day we picked them for our wedding to the memorable performance they displayed on our special day. From the ceremony to the cocktail hour and through the whole evening, Groovin' You provided the highest level of entertainment and style. Their infectious attitude and musical prowess absolutely were the highlight of our wedding! Our guests were completely overjoyed. Colin was a pleasure to deal with from the start. His professionalism and high service made it easy for Jessica and I to work with him. We were so happy to have picked Groovin' You! They really rock!

Our wedding day was THE BEST DAY EVER because of Groovin' You! From the energy, the professionalism, the talent to the band members themselves, I cannot say enough about these guys. Our wedding guests were blown away at how awesome the band was.
We got married Aug 22nd, 2015 at Gunstock Mountain in New Hampshire. We had a summit ceremony and we had the band play AT the summit. This meant strapping amps, instruments and themselves to the chairlift to the top. We had them play an acoustic set for the summit ceremony and it was absolutely PERFECT. They jammed' out while our guests were arriving and it set a perfect mood. Our wedding party then walked down the aisle to an acoustic version of "One Love" by Bob Marley and I walked down to "Better Together by Jack Johnson" - all performed live. The band also provided the sound & mics for there ceremony and the quality was top notch.
Our reception was a kickass party and it was all thanks to these guys. From emcee'ing the entrances, dances and more - everything was perfect. They played the perfect mix of songs and there were more than 100 people on the dancefloor! They kept the energy up for 3+ hours. All of our wedding guests kept saying "that was THE BEST wedding band we have ever seen" - my husband and I couldn't agree more.
I also want to make a note about their professionalism pre-and-post wedding. Colin was absolutely fantastic to work with running through the contract and payment terms.
I can't say enough about Groovin' You - we love you guys!

You guys DO NOT DISAPPOINT!!! We had been telling people about the amazing band that we had hired for our wedding for the last year and people said that you were even better than they expected (obviously!)!! We believe the common question was "WHERE did you guys find this band?!?!"
We had such an amazing wedding and you guys were a huge reason for that. You're all so talented & put on such an amazing performance.
Thank you again for making our wedding such a fun and memorable party. We hope to run into you guys again in the future & plan to recommend you to all of our friends and family for their future events.
WORTH.EVERY.PENNY.

Groovin You did an exceptional job at our wedding 8/29 in Vermont. Throughout the night, our guests were complimenting the band. A few guests actually took the contact info to use them for future events. Groovin You brought energy and enthusiasm throughout the night that made our wedding so much fun. The music selection was perfect. We gave them an idea of our taste in music, and they hit it perfectly, playing everything from pop, 80s, classic rock, and wedding classics. Colin also did a really nice job MC'ing the reception. He was flexible and accommodating throughout the process as we continued to adjust our plans. I would recommend these guys to anyone who wants to have a memorable night.

Groovin' You is a PHENOMENAL band. We hired them to perform at our wedding on September 6th, 2015, after hearing of them from a friend and seeing them perform live once in Boston. Could not have been happier with their performance. Whether it is Stevie Wonder, Pink, Maroon 5, Katy Perry, Jay-Z, the Beatles, Bon Jovi, or Taylor Swift that you want them to play, they do it all, and they do it really, really, really well.
Not only did they bring an unbelievable amount of energy and fun, they were incredibly accommodating. They learned a ton of Jewish music to play for our Hora, which I believe lasted around 20 minutes. Naturally, we were initially worried about the band's ability to learn music with which they were not previously familiar, but they performed these songs flawlessly. We were so impressed!
They were slightly more expensive than some of the other options out there. HOWEVER, I think a good band is the #1 ingredient to ensure you and all other wedding-goers have a blast. You can try and save a few bucks here or there on decorations, caterer, etc. but I would NOT recommend trying to save on the band. You can't really put a price on the dozens of people coming up to you at your wedding saying how awesome the band is, and how much fun they're having dancing and singing along!
I would recommend Groovin' You 10 times out of 10.
9/04/2015 • Knottie1441406582
Goovin' You absolutely rocked our wedding. These guys really know how to read the crowd and keep the party going. Their extensive repertoire allows to go in a number of directions. We loved their energy from the very first time we heard them, and our guests are still talking about the band weeks after the wedding. The group is also very professional and easy to work with - we had a family member perform, and they were more than willing to accommodate, including making arrangements prior to the event. We would absolutely recommend Groovin' You - they won't disappoint.
8/19/2015 • Justina A
Groovin' You was an absolute PLEASURE to work with and changed the experience of our wedding. We wanted our reception to be an all around good time party for us and our guests and that's exactly what it was. The band doesn't simply play, they interact with your guests as an audience. Our dance floor was filled the entire time, and we even extended the reception because everyone was having so much fun.
The band played during our ceremony and also played the groom-mother and bride-father songs; they played these songs with such integrity and originality that it left me speechless. I would 125% recommend Groovin' You for your event.
8/03/2015 • bpb29
Can't say enough good things about this band. We just had a 200-person wedding in Vermont and Groovin' You brought the house down. The dance floor was packed all night and we had dozens upon dozens of guests tell us how awesome the band is. The members of the band are young but everyone was blown away by their professionalism. Everyone in the band is not only a musician but a performer (dance moves, keeping the crowd involved, etc.). Colin was great to work with and super accommodating. He was very flexible on timing of toasts, songs requests, etc. They provided all the music we requested for our cocktail hour playlists and set breaks. Perfect execution. Our toasts ran a bit long but the band totally rolled with it on the fly. We had some friends perform as ceremony musicians and Colin set up the speakers and ran the sounds for the ceremony for a very reasonable price. Whole thing sounded great. 10/10.

Simply put, you will not regret booking Groovin' You for your wedding/event. The dance floor was packed the entire wedding - from 80 year old grand parents to every single friend and family member.
From their professionalism, preparation, willingness to make our wedding vision a reality, to their pure talent and contagious fun spirit, we want to thank Groovin You for making our night unforgettable.
Here are a few more reasons why my wife and I were so happy we chose Groovin' You for our wedding: You took the time to ensure all the logistics and preparation was in order and met and exceeded all our expectations. Our collaboration and your advice and recommendations for the night was nothing short of spectacular. Your three piece set at our ceremony set the scene my wife and I dreamed about. Your fun spirit and pure talent had everyone on the dance floor for the entire night (literally the dance floor was packed from start to end and I don't think my wife and I stopped dancing). Every guest left with a smile on their face and talking about how fun it was and how awesome you guys are. It was a pleasure working with you and thank you for making our night amazing.
