Don’t hesitate and book Split D for your wedding! We’ve loved seeing them as couple for our entire relationship and knew they would be the best for our special day. Mikey was an amazing MC and so easy to work with. The acoustic set at our cocktail hour was perfect and had such a good vibe. The entire band puts on an amazing show and had everyone on the dance floor the entire night. They allowed all of our crazy requests and made the planning process a breeze. They included us as part of the show and the whole crew was amazing. All of our guests keep raving about how awesome the show was! We can’t say enough amazing things about this band. BOOK THEM NOW!

They came highly recommended and didn’t disappoint. They learned songs for us, did our intros, handled the ceremony music, played an acoustic set during cocktail hour…. They did it all.
They made the night perfect.
Any questions?

This is not a normal 'wedding band'. They are AWESOME and bring so much energy to the day!! They are GREAT to work with and made our wedding. Our guests are still raving about how great our band was the day of our wedding. We had a very active dance floor, thanks to them ! They really know how to get the crowd going and it is even cooler that we can see them again at venues down the shore or at XfinityLive!! You won't regret booking them!!

Hiring Split Decision was the second best decision I made on my wedding day, the first was saying “I do” to my wonderful husband! These guys had the entire dance floor packed all night and we all had such an amazing time. Would recommend to anyone looking for a high energy, talented cover band. Many of our guests loved them so much they have since gone to see them play down at the Jersey shore and at other venues in Philly. Thanks Split Decision!

If you prefer your wedding guests NOT to dance, definitely skip over Split Decision. But if you prefer your pregnant bridesmaid to forever talk about how she couldn't stop moving her swollen feet the whole night because of how good they were... then def book em.
My dad had one very big concern during wedding planning- will his elderly friends like the music played? He knew my fiance and I loved Split Decision after years of following them in Dewey and North Wildwood, but he didn't want a wedding band that only accommodated the younger generation. Split Decision not only delivered but my dad even had to admit that I was right for once.
I was a super needy bride, needing them to play Merrill Reese recordings at certain points in the night, and make sure they got my dad up in a chair... & Split not only delivered (yet AGAIN) but they even got me (THE BRIDE) to crowdsurf.
I could brag about them all day since I'm the one who chose them, but I think it says it all when one of your wedding guests booked them the following week for her own wedding.
So, if you want your friends and your dad's friends to NOT dance at your wedding, I repeat DO NOT BOOK SPLIT. But if you're looking for a band that will bring all your wedding dreams to life- pick these guys.. you won't regret it. 🕺🎶💃

This review has been a long time coming... We got married back in September and I cannot recommend Split Decision enough. Wedding planning can be so stressful & they made everything surrounding the entertainment so incredibly easy and it was such a relief. They were beyond helpful throughout the planning process & were always quick to respond if we had any questions at all leading up to the wedding. They went above and beyond to help everything go as perfectly as possible - from helping set up audio for the ceremony to playing an acoustic set during cocktail hour to ensuring our reception was as fun as it could possibly be. ALL of our friends & family came up to us after (and still do!) just to tell us how great they were. They kept our guests entertained all night and I cannot express my gratitude enough. Such a wide range of songs to choose from & the energy was through the roof the entire time. Please do not hesitate to book Split for your wedding, you will NOT regret it!!! The absolute BEST decision going with them for ours - I cannot thank them enough!

I've been following Split Decision since I was 18 years old going to LaCosta in Sea Isle City. My girlfriends and I would spend every summer singing and dancing with them as our favorite cover band. It was only natural that when I got engaged, that I had to have them play at our wedding!!! I couldn't imagine having anyone else for entertainment.
They are the BEST guys!!! And they were amazing to work with and made my vision come to life. They went above and beyond to make acoustics happen for my beach ceremony so that I could walk down the aisle to my husbands favorite song "Sweet Child of Mine" which was such a beautiful touch. They were open and accommodating to all songs requested and they even learned and practiced a song on their own time so that my husband could play guitar for his bride during our reception - it was the highlight of my night! All guests were up dancing and still talk about what a blast they had 6 years ago.
Now married with children at 42, they are still our favorite band to go see play when we get a night out! Highly Highly recommend!!

Looking to have your wedding be the best and talked about for years to come? Split Decision is where it’s at! These guys are so much fun! They really know how to have a great time and work with you for the songs you want to hear. My guests are STILL talking about our wedding from 2015 and not for the food or venue which were both amazing but the band! It’s such a better experience having a live band then a DJ! Look no further, Split Decision IS the best decision!

We got married in April 2021. Split was just getting back out on stage after the lock down. Inarguably THE BEST decision we made that day (besides saying "I do".) It's now Jan 2023 and people literally still talk about how great our band was. And if you have nostalgia for Split from bar-hopping in the 90's, stop looking for your entertainment right now and book Split.

SplitDecision was the absolute best and we could not have been happier with our choice. They were so easy to work with and accommodated some music we wanted to hear. We have had so many guests (of all ages) comment on what an amazing party it was and we definitely have them to thank. I would 100% recommend SplitDecision for your celebration!
