The Chuck Taylors | Great Band | Plays All Styles EMCEE

Greg and crew!

our wedding day. They provided wonderful music for every part of our celebration - the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and reception. Each transition was smooth, and the music perfectly set the tone for every moment. The reception was an absolute blast thanks to them. Greg Lee and his band really know how to bring a party to life. They kept the energy high, the dance floor full, and our guests had so much fun. We received so many compliments about how great the band was. We would highly recommend The Chuck Taylors to anyone looking for a talented, professional, and fun wedding band!

played music before the ceremony, during the walk-ins, during the cocktail hour, all through dinner, and for the 2.5 hours of dancing. They went far beyond what you would expect for a live wedding band for the reception. They played a fantastic repertoire of music, just off of a couple suggestions from us. For a few songs they would hand the mic off to us for karaoke, which was much more fun than expected. They would come into the dancing and play beside us. And they lived up to their word of playing a sick Havah Nagiliah during the horah. They had such a fun energy and our reception truly would not have been what it was if we had just gone with a DJ. Working with them was very easy, since we were just able to text with Greg to set everything up. We couldn’t recommend them more. Greg also helped save our ceremony. Our chuppah collapsed about 30 minutes before the ceremony began. Greg grabbed some twine and stakes from his car and helped set the chuppah back up and secure it. Without that we probably would have needed four people to hold it up for the entirety of the ceremony.

. Also they play EVERYTHING!! If I could give them 5 million stars I would. Absolutely recommend!!! 

t dance song perfectly, read the crowd like pros, and somehow made every generation feel like the music was picked just for them. The energy was electric! One of the best decisions we made for the day. If you want your guests to still be raving about the band months later, book these guys. 11/10, would hire again in a heartbeat! 100% recommend – you won’t regret it!

of all ages in the fun! Our wedding felt like a fun concert (which is what we wanted) thanks to them! They did it all for us…from Greg playing the piano for our ceremony and the band playing at cocktail hour and reception and even allowing people to come up and sing karaoke! Use them as a resource during planning because they will try their hardest to answer any questions or accommodate any requests! They play all kinds of music so there is something for everyone! All of our guests raved about them and we as a couple can’t say enough good things. When you book with them, you are choosing a professional, kind, and talented group of people that will genuinely care about your wedding and guest experience! 

n’t have imagined a better band to work with.  We are still getting compliments on how great our wedding music was and how much fun everyone had!  Thanks for making our wedding so special! 

ic during dinner to the open dancing, the energy was high and the playlist was full of hits. They engaged with our crowd a ton which really kept folks entertained and on the dance floor for the full 2.5 hours of dancing. Meanwhile, they did not take a single break throughout the night which everyone thought was awesome. We could not go more than 5 minutes without someone coming up to us saying how amazing they were. On top of that, Greg was the best to work with. He was very responsive and allowed us to fully customize the night the way we wanted. Literally everything we asked for, from having a speaker outside for cocktail hour to allowing me to bring my full guitar setup to play with the band, the answer was simply “yes, we can do that”. There’s a reason that they come so highly recommended - they will absolutely not disappoint. Do yourself a favor and book them.

. Greg was the perfect MC and didn't miss a beat. They played killer music during the cocktail hour, dinner, and reception, and learned all of our special dance songs. We built in 3.5 hours of dancing into our reception and it wasn't enough. I could have jammed with these guys all night. We sang with the band, we crowd surfed, I played the saxophone, one of my guests rapped - it was hands down the coolest party I've ever been to. Booking the Chuck Taylor's was (apart from marrying my husband) the best decision I've made to date.

n outstanding job, and they sounded excellent. They did everything - played ceremony music, played during cocktail hour, provided emcee services, and rocked the reception. They did not stop playing for a single minute. Super easy to work with and will customize things for what you want during your event. We highly recommend them!

e from the bridal party go up and sing on the mics. Everyone still talks about how it was the best band they’ve seen at a wedding. We want to get married again just so we can hang out with them 🙃 they are truly the most amazing band but even better people! You can tell them genuinely want to make your day so special and they 1000% did. They are one of our biggest memories when looking back at the wedding day and we couldn’t be happier about that. You will not regret booking them!!

ould be! They knew how to start the party and keep it going!

the father of the bride with getting a special song recorded for his dance with our daughter They read the crowd and played to them. The dance floor was packed the entire night and they take zero breaks! We still have people talking about how great they were! Wishing we could relive the experience over again. They most definitely played the biggest part in making the dinner and reception the most amazing night! Highly, highly recommend!

e asked for a better band for our wedding!!

ciated that they offered to play music during dinner, and once it was time for the reception, they were very high energy, engaging and fun to get the party started! They took no breaks during our reception, and it kept the dance floor going the entire night. We had a few special requests and they were awesome about accommodating us, and we are so glad we picked them as our entertainment.

rom Missouri & our wedding planner gave us a list of suggested vendors & CT was at the top & I know why! They didn’t take a break which was unbelievable to us! The ceremony music was beautiful, cocktail hour was great & reception music made sure the dance floor was FULL all night long! They even included the crowd with awards they gave out to our guests, the winners stopped & showed me their awards & they were so proud! It was a personal touch! It’s almost 5 months later & people still talk to me about the band! Chuck Taylors band was a perfect choice to complete the wedding! My daughter & her now husband said it was the best time ever!

ey played piano & sax for cocktail hour, great dinner time music, and then absolutely ROCKED it all night on the dance floor! All of our guests said how great the music was, they knew how to get the people going! The smiles on everyone's faces while dancing said it all. Greg & co picked up on the vibes and played all the right music for us, even taking our requests. Greg is so friendly and awesome to work with as well. BOOK THEM if you're getting married in OHIO you won't regret it! <3 Thanks Greg and the Chuck Taylors for making our day so incredibly memorable! - Kelsey and Joe

they made the party. We had an incident with a fire alarm and they handled it appropriately and then kept the party going! Highly recommend!

e rest of the band provided that extra touch to make the night truly unforgettable! Since our wedding night, my wife and I have been been able to run into Greg almost annually either at events he’s performing at or random locations and he never fails to come up to us and catch up. He’s one of a kind and we do everything we can recommend him and the Chuck Taylor’s to anyone looking for live entertainment for an event. Do yourself a favor and book him for your event! You’ll be thrilled you did!

derful the Chuck Taylors sounded, great price, unlimited hours, no breaks, and super friendly/amazing/talented??? But it's true, Greg and the band were everything we hoped and more. Before we found Greg and the Chuck Taylors we were looking at a different band to book, but after experiencing that competitor at a friend's wedding we weren't sold on it at all. The competitor band was not memorable at all, very expensive, and didn't perform spectacularly, so we weren't sure we wanted to spend the money on live music. Greg changed our minds. Once we saw The Chuck Taylors YouTube channel and talked to Greg on the phone, we knew we could rest easy knowing our night was going to be amazingly fun. So if you are in the market for a wedding band, look no further. We had the best night of our lives and it is in large part because of how well they could read the crowd and how engaging they were with the audience. Greg and the band don't need to be fed and don't take breaks, which sounded potentially exhausting but they kept the party engaged THE WHOLE TIME and you could tell they truly have a passion for entertaining!!! I also asked them to be a bit "unconventional" and play our first dance song's music video on a projector and they did without hesitation. Greg asked the entire guest attendance to sing along and it still gives me chills to watch back on all of our guests singing to the video. Hiring the Chuck Taylors will ensure your event is nothing short of AMAZING AND SPECTACULAR. The saxophonist even came out into the crowd and they let us sing with the microphone. You really can't ask for a better experience. Without hesitation I plan on hiring them for my next event no matter what it is or where it is and recommending them to all of my friends!!!

g set the tone and I immediately knew that they were going to make this a party. We’ve had SO many guests tell us that it was the best wedding band they’ve ever heard and that it felt like a concert. My dream of doing karaoke at my wedding became a reality because of these guys and it is a night I’ll never forget. Before the ceremony, Greg took requests from my grandma so she could enjoy some of her generations music and entertained her during the cocktail hour. He put so much effort into making the whole day fun and made sure every guest had a great time while adding personal touches. We are already talking about a 5 year anniversary party and bringing the Chuck Taylors back. We love Greg and the guys! Book them for your wedding - you will not regret it!

nely felt like a personal concert / dance party all night! They interact with the crowd without it feeling forced or uncomfortable. We have had so many of our guests talk about how the dance floor was always packed. People are still talking about them and this night, and I've even had several people planning weddings in other areas of the country ask for their contact information. The Chuck Taylors made our reception unbelievably fun!

ng all had a great time, which was largely due to this awesome band. So many of them asked to know our band's name so that they could tell their friends about them. We had such a fun time dancing and even did some karaoke! We made memories to last a lifetime. Greg did a great job as emcee as well. He kept the night moving and gave us plenty of time to cut it up on the dance floor. The Chuck Taylors are so impressively talented and are true professionals. They know what they are doing and definitely know how to have a good time! Do yourself (and your guests) a favor and book The Chuck Taylors ASAP!!!

we are still all on cloud nine. It’s hard to find the right words to describe our experience because no words could do it justice. First of all Greg is just SO nice! He’s kind, ENERGETIC, professional, TALENTED, and positive. He is a great emcee and totally “read the room” and our crowd which ranged from 20 somethings to 80 somethings - the dance floor was packed the entire night. We had a blast, he had a blast, and the bride and groom had the wedding ( and dance party) of their dreams. Thank you to Greg and The Chuck Taylors Band, BEST and easiest wedding decision we made.

o make working with them a priority. Greg was so friendly and flexible, and it was easy to communicate with him. Out guests have raved about how much fun our wedding was and how the Chuck Taylors were the best wedding band they have ever seen. They played nonstop during the reception, and did a great job of learning our crowd and keeping everyone on the dance floor. The interaction with guests and trophies were a huge hit! Greg worked right along with our other vendors as well, and they all raved about him as well. I would recommend them to anyone!

ht, "Awesome, they can perform to an audience of kids and adults." But when we realized they had former wedding couples in the audience with kids they've had since, and Greg could call several by name, we knew they were special. When we did book them, I was nervous to tell them I wanted my dad to perform my first dance song with their band and that I had some other songs for them to learn. Not only did they say yes but Greg was genuinely excited and supportive as he coordinated with my dad. It meant the world and gave me one of the best memories I'll ever have. At the wedding? The crowd was obsessed with the Chuck Taylors. The dance floor was never empty and our friends still comment on how they bonded with specific musicians. Hahaha they really just blended into our crowd in the best way. Greg also acted as an emcee throughout and did a fabulous job. One of our best choices in wedding planning and they will always hold a special place in my heart!

ntertain a crowd. We didn't get to see them live before the event, but Greg (and reviews) assured us it wouldn't be necessary and they were so right! Everyone at our wedding loved the band and all the songs that were played. They were great at getting everyone involved and interacting and it was definitely something we/our guests won't forget.

directly would call on guests names, gave out small trophies that they had put our name/date/location on and carried out our itinerary flawlessly! Recommend this band more than anything!

wedding. Greg is an amazing entertainer/emcee and just a genuine person. He remembers everyone's names and favorite songs, and does a great job engaging the crowd. He even passes out mini trophies! The Chuck Taylors also don't take a single break all night - they keep the party going! They are incredible and made our wedding such a blast. All of our guests raved about them! I can't wait to watch them play at another event soon!

eviews, so decided to choose them for our band. After our first phone call with Greg, we knew we made the right decision and he made us even more excited for our day. Greg was professional while also being all about throwing a PARTY! He was always quick to respond to emails/text messages as well which we appreciated. They were AMAZING at our reception and brought so much energy. It's been two weeks since our wedding and we are still getting comments from people talking about how awesome and how much fun they were. So THANK YOU Chuck Taylors. You truly helped to make our wedding a day/night we'll never forget.

y's hits. Definitely recommend this band to couples who are wedding planning.

r starters, I met Greg while touring the venue we decided to get married at. Our coordinator said, “hey do you have a DJ or band yet? If not, we just so happen to have our favorite one here right now setting up for an event!” Being my family has always been very musically inclined, we hit it off immediately! Greg’s energy is second to none! He is extremely quick witted and funny, smart, sweet, attentive, and of course, TALENTED!!!! We left not only knowing where my wedding would be, but now who our DJ would be! I messaged him that evening claiming I want him, and he was very happy to oblige! During the wedding process, 6 weeks before the big day, my dad fell very sick. We became so worried and scared. 7 days prior to the big day, we had to make the tough call to postpone. I quickly reached out to Greg and his response was incredibly sincere. He told me to not worry and that he will accolade a new date if it’s available. Him being so popular, I was so nervous it wouldn’t work out.. but the stars aligned, and he was in fact free for our new date! At the point, my dad was starting to turn a corner and we were seeing positive changes. One night his band was performing near us and we decided as a family to go! My dad was still wobbly and healing but he came and the last song of the night, Greg dedicated to him! Thoughtful and genuine gestures such as this confirmed our already found love for this man. After that night, we decided we didn’t just want Greg, we wanted the whole band, and that’s exactly what we did and I am SO happy we landed on this decision! ITS WEDDING DAY! The day we had been waiting for finally came. I spoke with Greg a few nights prior about what I wanted to have played for the ceremony and when he answered his phone, he was in the background playing, “it’s the final count down” on his piano and that cued up the excitement even more! The man is so sweet, he truly is! Anyway, he helped nail down the perfect music for my bridal party to walk down the aisle too. It had me in tears (naturally). The day went without a hitch, not a single issue arose. He kept the movement of the party consistent and controlled and the energy her eluded is second to none! He is the true heartbeat of keeping the night alive and jumping! He gets people involved, he sings fun and happening songs and man can the band jam! My favorite memory of the night was seeing my flower girls dance the entire night and when the party was coming to an end, it was just a few close family members left and we tore that dance floor up! Belting songs, acting goofy, and just having a true and wonderful time. It’s something I will NEVER forget and talking about it will always make me tear up. Greg, and to the Chuck Taylors.. thank you, from the bottom of our hearts. You showed me an immense amount of love & kindness & I know you are someone I will always consider a now friend. You are someone I want to stay in touch with and my family and I cannot wait to follow you & your band around for different events and performances. You have infinitely touched us in ways we can’t explain, & in ways money can’t buy. You are shaping couples dream nights in ways that’s indescribable!!! Just stop your search now, higher Greg immediately, & be prepared for the most memorable evening of your life! ❤️

eople were on the dance floor all night. My husband and I agree that they were the best part about our wedding (other than marrying each other obviously). Hire them! You won't regret it!

ors truly created such a FUN and ENERGETIC atmosphere for our guests. The groom even joined the band in playing keyboard during Journey's Don't Stop Believin'! What an incredible memory!! Family and friends are still talking about how amazing that night was!! No one wanted the night to end. Greg is undoubtedly the BEST emcee ever!!! Thank you so much, Chuck Taylors, for making that night so absolutely perfect!!!

I had so many people tell me they were the best wedding band they had ever heard. They do not play regular cheesy wedding music, it honestly felt like I was at a concert. They got all the guests involved and did not take one break. If you can book them- do it!!

nderful pianist. He played beautiful music for our prelude and ceremony, then we had saxophone accompaniment for our cocktail hour, background music during dinner and then the party kicked off with the reception! Can’t recommend Greg Lee and The Chuck Taylors enough for all your wedding music needs! They add personal touches to the reception, that really make it feel like your own concert! Our guests still can’t stop raving about them! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

as over. Their interaction with all of our guests had people who would have been sitting at the tables up and enjoying the party. Greg and his band mates played a special mashup for our first dance, which turned our better than everything we could have hoped for. Additionally, Greg played for our entire ceremony and if it wasn't for the rain, would have been playing throughout our cocktail hour. Throughout the wedding planning process all of our other vendors told us how great they would be and they exceeded even these expectations. We could not recommend the Chuck Taylors highly enough!

truly kept the party going. Greg was so fun to work with and he really calmed our nerves that everything would go smoothly. Really couldn't have asked for better music. Really can't recommend them enough!!

ed, so we really had no idea what we were looking for. All we knew is that we wanted a band that played nonstop – from our parade, to cocktail hour, through dinner and ultimately pumping up the party/dance floor. Greg Lee and The Chuck Taylors were the first band that we chatted with and after talking to numerous other bands throughout the planning process, we just kept coming back to them. Not only was Greg Lee knowledgeable and awesome to talk with, but he never made us question his ability to pump up the crowd and handle anything we threw at him. And that they did!!! Greg learned all three of our special dance songs and nailed them all. Guests at our wedding also still talk about how much fun the band was and how engaging they were with the crowd. They had trophies to give out throughout the night, let my husband sing karaoke to his favorite song, kept all ages up on the dance floor, and just owned the party the entire night. I’m embarrassed to say that our wedding night was actually the first time that we heard them play live, but I think it also says a lot about who this band is because I have never heard ONE bad thing about them, and they exceeded our expectations. GREG LEE AND THE CHUCK TAYLORS ARE A MUST!! You will not regret it!

l job of reading the crowd and playing amazing songs! They also learned our first dance song for us! I especially enjoyed when they brought our guests onto stage, gave them microphones, and even awarded top dancers a trophy! My friend was supposed to leave early but ended up loving the band and staying all night, even singing a song! 10/10 would hire these guys again!

s. Greg and his team are engaging and get to know their audience and play the best music. I truly get emotional thinking about how our reception was perfect because of the crucial part they played. This band is a MUST BOOK for your event. They played for our cocktail hour and entire reception with no breaks. Greg also acted as our MC and adapted quickly and seamlessly to any last minute changes. He also helped us plan a surprise dance for the audience and we gave him a list of guests that would love to be called out as well as let our friend sing a song with the band. Everything about them is perfect!!
