If you are thinking about possibly hiring this band for your wedding, don't think anymore, JUST HIRE THEM!!! This was the EASIEST, BEST part of wedding planning. They are such professionals and know exactly what they are doing. They require minimal effort on your end and stay in as much or little communication as you would like. They are extremely professional and fun to work with. They brought the party and the dance floor was PACKED while they played. I cannot say enough wonderful things about them, and our guests have made an effort to tell us how wonderful the band was. Seriously cannot recommend them enough, they are worth every penny!!!

We cannot say enough amazing things about the Royal Dukes! They absolutely MADE our wedding reception unforgettable. From the very first song to the final encore, they kept the energy high and the dance floor packed all night long.
The musicians were phenomenal—the instruments sounded incredible, and every note was flawless. The singers were equally amazing, with powerhouse vocals that brought every song to life. Their setlist was perfectly curated to keep our guests engaged, from classics to modern hits, and they executed every song with so much talent and passion.
We’ve been overwhelmed with compliments since the wedding! Guests were texting us the next day and even approaching us during the night to ask, “Who is this band? They’re incredible!”
If you want a band that will take your celebration to the next level, don’t hesitate to book the Royal Dukes. They truly made our night unforgettable!

We used the Royal Dukes for multiple services related to our wedding. They provided a 5 piece band, a cellist for our ceremony, a cellist for our cocktail hour, and microphone services for our ceremony. They were great to work with leading up to our event – were quick to respond to any questions we had and happy to explain anything we didn’t have any familiarity with. They did a great job on our event day and everything was seamless. The cellist and band were wonderful and our guests had nothing but great things to say about both. We will absolutely use the Royal Dukes again for our next event!

Royal Dukes know how to keep a party going! We hired the 7 piece band with the saxophone for our wedding and it was a huge huge hit. Everyone stayed on the dancefloor and commented how it was one of the funnest weddings they had ever been too! All of the musicians were top notch professionals. The booking process was easy and Jon was helpful throughout the planning process. Only 1 star lost due to I constructed my own playlist to be played during cocktail hour and dinner that was not played, and had some specific song requests filled out in our online profile that were not honored throughout the night. However, absolutely did not take away from the vibe or the party, and still would highly recommend!

Don’t hesitate to book the Royal Dukes for your wedding! We hired the 7 piece band and 3 piece string trio for my daughter’s wedding last weekend in Dallas. Marisela helped us with all the details leading up to the event. She is knowledgeable and organized and then to our surprise she sang at the wedding. Such a true talent! The entire band exceeded our expectations and kept the dance floor filled all night. Our guests are still talking about the fabulous band. I highly recommend the Royal Dukes

Booking Royal Dukes Band for our wedding was the best decision we made! From the ceremony duo to the jazz trio during cocktail hour and the 6-piece band for the reception, they brought unparalleled energy and talent to every moment. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the incredible performance, especially the saxophone player who stole the show. They seamlessly accommodated our requests, including our special entrance song, and their ability to provide venue lighting and handle all our music needs made planning a breeze. It was seriously such a party thanks to Royal Dukes Band!

The Royal Dukes were amazing and made such an impact at making our wedding full of fun and dancing non-stop! Jordan worked with us every step of the way to understand all of the details and to make the best decision in what to select from them.
We hired the 10 piece band and it was the best decision - three singers and the horns section! So many guests have commented how amazing the band was. We had about 5 specific song requests outside of special dance (first dance and father & mother) and they nailed those special songs, and then the rest of the night they absolutely kept the party going and kept the guests on the dance floor. The Royal Dukes absolutely made this a perfect and unforgettable night for us and it would NOT have been the same without them! Highly highly recommend and love the Royal Dukes!

We used the Royal Dukes Band for both our daughter's weddings, one in May 2021 and the other in May 2023. They did an excellent job both weddings. I like that I could also book a 3-piece string group for the wedding ceremony and a 3 piece jazz group for the cocktail hour for a small additional fee. They have an easy to website to input your wedding timeline. We went to several of their scheduled events where you could hear the different singers so that you could request the two that you liked. Everyone was on the dance floor, they do a great job of reading the room.

I am so glad we chose the Royal Dukes for our wedding! We were torn between a live band and a DJ, but the band was definitely the right option and the Royal Dukes were the best choice for the job! Everything leading up to the event was very organized and they were very easy to work with. On the day of our wedding, they were so professional and fun and captured all the different vibes we were going for throughout the evening perfectly! They kept the party going on the dance floor all night long and we had so much fun! 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for great entertainment for their wedding!

Once we attended one of the Royal Dukes Band's convenient monthly showcases, my husband and I knew they were THE band for our wedding. In terms of talent and genre, they offer just about everything you could possibly want. The communication is thorough, and your personalized planning site makes logistics and communication easy, and the day-of schedule super clear. We went with a 7-member band for our ~85 person wedding because the entertainment was where we decided to budget our funds, and it was a knockout! All the feedback we got from our wedding attendees included praise for how much fun the band was. We have dreams of throwing another party just to get to see them play again!

I have now worked twice with Jon at Royal Dukes Band, first for a ladies' organization dinner dance and recently for my 50th wedding anniversary. The first time a band was hired and the second event, a DJ was hired. The planning page provided is a great tool to use in planning with RDB - very easy to use and very helpful. Both times the band members and DJ were great to work with and very accommodating to what was desired for the events.

We had our reception on 11/06/21 at Rockefeller's which is a concert venue, so we knew we needed to have a live band! We went to a showcase and heard the Royal Dukes Band play and knew they were the ones! They kept our guests on the dance floor all night long! They even learned our first dance song for us and were able to perform it live. One of our bridesmaid's moms is a singer, and so during the reception, we asked if she could hop onstage and perform Proud Mary with the band. They agreed, and it was the highlight of our night!! Our guests are still raving about how much fun this band was and what a party our reception was!!! Plus, they are super reasonably priced for the amazing quality! Jon was super responsive via phone and email, and answered all our (many) questions timely and patiently! Cannot recommend the Royal Dukes highly enough!

We used the Royal Dukes Band for our wedding in The Woodlands. We attended one of their free showcases in Houston and loved the energy the band brought. We liked them at the showcase, but we cannot speak highly enough about how FANTASTIC the band was on our wedding day. Easy to work with leading up to the event and very responsive. The energy, vibe, and overall experience was GREAT. In the 3 weeks since the wedding, we have not stopped receiving compliments from guests. The band was everything we could've hoped for and not to mention a very reasonable price!

From day 1, I knew I wanted to have a live band for my wedding reception. After A LOT of searching for the perfect band, we finally settled on the Royal Dukes. I could not possibly be any happier with our decision. Jon was a pleasure to work with, super easy going and accommodating. Our guests absolutely RAVED about how fun our wedding was. We had the String Trio for the ceremony, Jazz Trio for the cocktail hour, and 5-piece band for our reception. All we wanted was for it to be a really fun, fabulous day, and the Royal Dukes made that happen without a doubt. I highly recommend booking for your special day!!!

We requested some band members specifically that were at the open house - Hugo, Melanie, Hugo, Eric, Jon and Nolan. These were some of the best musicians I have ever witnessed and did NOT disappoint! We LOVE music and it was very important to us to have a band that was GREAT and rocked with us. Everyone was fantastic and brought their A-game. I cannot say enough good things about this band, and Jon specifically who facilitated the whole booking. He was super organized and responsive to my many many emails and questions.

BOOK THEM NOW! Do not think any longer. Their pricing + quality of service and execution was absolutely flawless.
They made our wedding ceremony and reception so special. Amy (manager + talented singer) was so kind and patient throughout the process. I could not have hoped for it to go any smoother.
Amy actually met me for coffee early in the planning process + spent some time on the phone making sure I was comfortable and happy. Her input meant the world to me and I am so fortunate to have Royal Dukes play for my wedding. Everyone was raving about Sam (lead singer) and Chris (lead singer). They are beautiful people and beyond talented musicians. Royal Dukes were beyond my expectations. My heart was so happy at the end of the night. It is everything I could have hoped for and more. BOOK THEM NOW!

From the first time we saw you play at the Gorgeous Gael, through the months leading up to the day, to our actual wedding day, Jordan was great at communicating. You guys put together a great group to handle the music during our ceremony (violinist), cocktail hour (jazz trio), and reception (6 member band) and you could not have done a better job! Everything sounded amazing and every musician brought their A game. Our guests and us had so much fun thanks to you!

SUCH a fun night. The Royal Dukes were so much fun and a great band to dance to. My fiancé and I search around several different bands and Royal Dukes were by far the best. The lead female singer wasn't who we originally selected but I think she was even better than our original choice. Highly recommend

Everything you want in a wedding band. We went with an 8-piece band with a sound engineer and MC service. The musicians and vocalists are true professionals. They had our entire reception on their feet dancing all night. Plus, they got out on the dance floor themselves and took the party to another level. We worked closely with Marc, the band manager. He was so responsive and accommodating to our requests and in so many words, understood exactly what kind of music and vibe we wanted. Royal Dukes has a band planning page as well, which allowed me to upload my timeline, make special requests, and indicate the type of music we liked. It was very reassuring as a bride who was juggling a lot of responsibilities.

Thank you so much for working with Matt and I! We were extremely impressed with y'all and everyone had a wonderful time at our wedding! Special thanks to Sarah and Joey, who were amazing hosts, and exceeded our expectations for our wedding music. It was very special for them to learn our wedding song so we could dance to it live! I wish we would have had a videographer there to document how epic it was! Thank you so much for helping us make our day perfection!

This is THE wedding band to book! They are professional and experienced from start to finish. We customized the pieces and musical selection we wanted and everything was perfect. They had the whole reception up and dancing. Everyone who talks to me about that night ALWAYS talks about how amazing the band was.

Can't recommend Royal Dukes Band enough! They were probably the best decision we made in all of wedding planning. People were dancing from the first song to the last and everyone raved about them to us after the wedding. They couldn't get over how good they were! They played the perfect mix of music that we requested and I even threw in some requests at the reception that they did! The planning process was super easy as well. I would highly recommend them!

Amazing! The quality of the Royal Dukes, paired with their reasonable price, made them an amazing choice for our wedding. We chose the package that included a string quartet, jazz band and a twelve piece band. Every musician did an excellent job. Jon, who coordinated with us, went above and beyond to make sure we had exactly what we wanted at our wedding. Furthermore, when my husband wanted live music during our dinner service, he worked with us to make that happen at a reasonable cost. Lastly, the band let my husband borrow their guitar and microphone so he could perform a song during our wedding. I highly recommend the Royal Dukes and am so happy that we chose them for our wedding.
