The Don't Call Me Francis Band

This band was absolutely amazing to have at my wedding. They were very easy to communicate with and always reachable whenever I had questions that needed to be answered. They were able to accommodate all songs for a setlist I wanted played at my wedding. The guests absolutely loved them and we are so grateful and happy with our experience!

Don’t look any further because Don’t Call me Francis is the band you need to book for your wedding! They were hands down absolutely amazing!! They made our wedding night a dream and a night to remember. Our guests stayed on the dance floor all night with us and it was just purely amazing. I can say that our reception would not have been he same without them, and so so happy we decided to book them because her KILLED it!!! Our guests still talk about how amazing the live music was because there is simply nothing better! They lit up the whole room and we are so thankful they were able to be apart of our special day. Book them I promise you will not regret it!!!

The band was amazing as always! They brought such great energy and had our wedding guests on the dance floor within minutes of the reception starting. They were great to work with as well especially during the planning process. I can’t count how many times our wedding guests came up to us wanting to know more about the band. It was especially nice of them to stick around a little bit after the reception and chat. We’re thrilled they were a part of our big day, and think of them as family!

If you are looking for a band that will play the best wedding set you've ever heard, look no further. DCMF was AMAZING and they knocked it out of the park from our first dance to the last song of the night. We had too much fun dancing to even stop and check out the dessert!! 11/10 recommend.

Loved Loved Loved Don't Call Me Francis!!!! Everyone kept coming up to me at my wedding telling me this was the best band they have ever heard!!! It was a PARTY with them. They kept the vibes high and us dancing all night long. I can not say enough good things about this band. It's a band and they have a DJ for when the band takes breaks. And honestly if you are in-between a DJ or Band go with Don't Call me Francis seriously would book them over and over and over again!

Hands down, truly the best wedding band we could have hoped for!! Could not recommend them enough. After our wedding our guests could not stop talking about how fun the band was. They kept our guests dancing the entire night. They helped us every step of the way to ensure the music was exactly how we wanted it to be. It was even better than we expected because they even gave us great suggestions. Carmelita is amazing to work with, she is organized, professional, and on top of all communications. The band is so great to work with as well. Billy had called us before the wedding to go through the entire time line and help us pick out songs for each section of the night. They learned our first dance song, which helped to make the moment magical!! We even worked with the DJ to add in specific songs we wanted - my husband's family is Turkish so we worked with them to get some Turkish songs into the playlist. We are so grateful for this band, even outside of our wedding we try to see them when they play down the shore/various spots in South Jersey. They are fun, interactive and on top of that they sound amazing. Look no further this is the band you want and they will make your wedding an occasion you will always remember. Thank you DCMF!!!

COULDNT HAVE PICKED A BETTER WEDDING BAND!!! From the moment I booked DCMF for my wedding 2 years prior- DCMF and Carmelita were amazing to work with. We had multiple meetings with Carmelita, Billy, and Tommy to ensure our wedding entertainment would be everything we wanted and let me tell you.... they exceeded all expectations!!! They played all types of genres to please our guests in all different age ranges. They did some radio hits, disco, rap, country--LITERALLY EVERYTHING!!!! We love a well-rounded band!!! The band had the dance floor packed all night long and was super interactive with our guests. Mary and Adriana were on the dance floor with us singing and dancing...it was amazing!!!! When the band was in between sets Tommy, the DJ, played amazing music that kept the energy high. The band even allowed my husband and I to jump on stage with them and sing along with them. (CORE MEMORY UNLOCKED) Even though were nearly not as good as Billy, Mary and Adriana we had the absolute best time singing our hearts out and dancing to our favorite songs. I wish I could live my wedding night out over and over all because of DCMF!!!!! 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Thank you DCMF for a night I will never forget!

THE BEST BAND EVER! I cannot speak highly enough about DCMF. From booking, to planning/prepping, to the day of my wedding, they were absolutely amazing. Carmelita, the band manager, is the best. She was extremely helpful and patience during the entire planning process. The day after our wedding, we had so many of our guests raving about the band, we are still getting messages about them today! DCMF was everything my husband and I wanted and so much MORE. They kept the party going all night, they are so interactive, fun, high energy, and so so much more. We cannot thank them enough for giving us the best party and night of our lives! Truly would not have wanted anyone else to perform at my wedding. Cannot wait to follow them all next summer at all their gigs down at the Jersey shore!

DCMF was amazing at our wedding. They were so fun and everyone raved about them afterwards. Our wedding would not have been the same without them. They made sure it was the vibe we wanted and all the music we wanted was played. Carmelita was easy to communicate with. I would recommend them to anyone!

Phenomenal!Could not ask for anything more. DCMFB played at my daughter's wedding. They played every song we requested. They brought great energy to the room. They interacted with the guests. Our guests spanned generations, the music appealed to all. They were highly professional. everyone raved about the band. It was a pleasure working with Carmelita and the band. I have two more kids who will eventually get married. We will be hiring DCMFB for both.

CANNOT SAY MORE GOOD THINGS – AMAZING BAND, EVEN BETTER PEOPLE. Hands down our wedding was fun because of this band. They are the warmest people, so fun and engaging with our guests and so many of our guests commented on how great the band was – from music choice to vocals, to energy!! They will learn any song you want for your first dance (with bride/groom or parents) and are accommodating to also play any song via DJ if it’s special to you! Having the combination was super helpful since we wanted to play Greek dancing music and use the original song for our first dance. We see this band a lot in the summer in Atlantic City, so we knew immediately we wanted to book them. Being familiar with their abilities and song genre is always nice, so you can always check out their website to see where they’re playing in the summer if you’re local! I will say though – they play A HUGE variety of music (hundreds of songs) so if you’re looking to mix it up (especially if you have a large age range of guests attending), they are great! Billy – the band leader was great and called us personally before the wedding to run through everything. He took the time to understand the vibe we wanted, what our guests would experience, and took the time to help us plan song order, etc. From the beginning I reached out to the band manager – Carmelita – explaining how eager we were to book them. We had a date/venue but no official contract from the venue yet (long story but it took months!). Carmelita was extremely helpful throughout those few months to ensure that we locked down the band for our big day, even with the uncertainty from our venue! We were so thankful that they were understanding about our situation and finally were able to book with ease. On the day of, the venue made changes to our timeline and the band was extremely understanding and was able to quickly adapt and change their set list/plans to make sure that we were happy. Even today, we love still visiting the band wherever they are playing, and they always are so sweet to come up to us and say hi or give a shoutout during their set! We love each and every one of them – BOOK THEM NOW!

Don't Call Me Francis played at my sister's wedding in 2018 and they were fantastic! The first thing we did after our engagement is book them for our reception.They had the place rocking all night long! My Dad said if he had to choose between feeding our guests and hiring DCMF he would definitely go with the band.They made the night.We received dozens of compliments about the music.Don't even think about it, book them!!!!

10/10 absolutely amazing band. Everyone had a blast and is still talking about the music from my wedding over 2 months ago! Highly recommend!!!

The first thing we said when planning our wedding was that we wanted everyone to have fun and dance all night long. Having DCMF play at our wedding was the best decision we made and they truly made our dream come true! Our friends and family still talk about how amazing the band was and how much fun they had. We are now lifelong fans and will most definitely be seeing you all soon. Thank you to Carmelita for making the the whole process leading up to the big day a breeze and to every single member of the band to making this the best day ever!

This band was amazing! They had the whole dance floor jumpin from beginning to end. The singing, the instruments, and even the participation of the band in the crowd of people blew my mind. It was a party from the start, and we never wanted it to end. I would recommend this band 10x over to any person looking for someone as amazing as Don’t Call Me Francis! 11/10 stars in my book. Every one was amazing, from forming the initial lineup, to figuring out songs to play, to just talking with Carmelita about my worries of wedding day stress, she was absolutely helpful and lovely, and the experience I had was outstanding.

Hiring DCMF at our November wedding was a no brainer as my wife has been a long time fan. Leading up to the wedding we were in touch with Billy and Tommy to make sure they understood what we wanted and they delivered. Our guests had a blast and told us how the band was they best they’ve seen at a wedding. DJ Tommy really helped throw a great party also. Nothing negative to say

If I could give DCMF more than five stars I would. They made my dream truly come true and our guest cannot stop talking about it! I truly feel I could have gotten married anywhere and had DCMF play and it would have been just as amazing. My dream for years was to have a wedding where all the guests were dancing. I’m telling you, the dance floor was PACKED all night long. Carm was wonderful to work with and is constantly checking in to make sure everything is going well. Weeks leading up to the wedding you speak to the band and go over everything. You truly do not have to worry about a single thing. You can request songs or you can let them do their thing… and trust me they know how to throw a party. They even learn your requested songs for first dances and entrances. I will forever day dream about the night of our wedding and DCMF playing with a packed dance floor. My heart is so full! Thank you so much to such an amazing crew xoxo

Don't look any further than the DCMF band for your upcoming wedding or event! I've been fortunate enough to see DCMF live so when it came time to pick a band for our wedding, there was only one option. Carmelita, Billy and the MC Tommy made the planning process a breeze and oh my gosh did we have such a blast at the wedding. We were on our feet the entire time (per my request) and the band's energy did not disappoint. They engaged the crowd so much and to this day (a month later) I can not stop getting compliments about how amazing they were. We can't wait to see them again soon at one of their live shows. Thank you for making our wedding electric DCMF!!! - Hannah & Alex

This band was the absolute highlight of our wedding! They were extremely professional from the beginning to the end. The pre planned calls and detailed time spent really made the day extremely special. They accommodated all of our songs choices - special music coming down the aisle, the cocktail hour, the bridal party entrances, even played a song that was extremely special to us in dedication of my mother who passed, and of course and amazing reception set! Overall we would really like to thank everyone at DCMF for making our day so special! We truly felt like family and highly recommend them to anyone!

DCMF is the greatest wedding band of all time!! I could not recommend a better one, our guests are still raving about the band & entertainment! It was truly the best night of my life. Billy had the entire crowd on their feet, I don't think a single person sat down the whole night. DCMF can sing a variety of songs & even learned our favorite " Atlantic City" by the band just for the occassion (which was unreal btw). Carmelita was truly a pleasure to work with and the DJ was also AMAZING! Look no further, book them now. I promise you won't regret it. Thanks DCMF FOR THE MOST MAGICAL EVENING! XO

Don’t Call Me Francis brought our wedding to life! all of our guests were dancing all night. They played a great variety of songs for the whole crowd, and kept every one on their feet all night. They were interactive with the dance floor, and knew exactly what song to play and when to play it. Don’t Call Me Francis really did help us achieve our dream wedding and we are so grateful for their performance. I highly recommend them as a wedding band and give them a 10/10!

DCMF rocked our wedding at Linwood Country Club! They are multi-talented and every interaction with the band both leading up to and during the wedding was professional and courteous. Our guests have not been able to stop talking about how much they loved the band and the great music. Thank you for helping make our our wedding day so memorable!

They did such a good job at the wedding. It was phenomenal! Everyone had a great time, people are still talking about how fantastic dcmf was!! Great job guys!!

DCMF made all of our wedding dreams come true! From the moment they started playing the dance floor was packed! If you want a band that interacts with your crowd, sounds amazing and keeps the party going until the very last song- DCMF is it! From the beginning of planning until right before the wedding, planning was seamless. I would say 1000% book DCMF- they truly don’t disappoint!

We wanted to thank you and every member of DCMF for the super pre-wedding organization and the wonderful performances yesterday at the winery ceremony and then back at the house for the party. The guests had a great time, no one melted in the heat, the band was terrific, it was all great! (as we knew it would be). Thanks again for making the music!!

DCMF was the most incredible band and we could not have made a better choice for our wedding day! The entire planning process from start to finish was so smooth and effortless. Carmelita and Billy were amazing in the pre-wedding planning process and so easy to communicate with. The Band went above and beyond our requests and had everyone on the dance floor the entire night!! Multiple guests commented on how amazing the band was and how interactive they were with each and every guest. DCMF are fabulous artists, musicians, and singers and on top of it were an absolute dream to work with overall. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for an unforgettable wedding night! 10/10!

I'm so happy we booked DCMF for our wedding! We had to move our wedding a year out due to COVID. Carmelita was so accommodating and understanding when our venue changed protocol 2 weeks before our big day. We received SO many complements throughout the night and following week of how amazing our band was. I couldn't recommend them enough!

After seeing DCMF play the Golden Nugget in Atlantic City every summer, I knew that they had to be my wedding band! They played my wedding at Water Works in Philadelphia. They were absolutely amazing! We danced all night! They were a pleasure to work with and very accommodating! We love this band so much! 10/10 recommend!

DCMF was AMAZING!! Carmelita is so sweet and accommodating from start to finish. From the ceremony to the reception the band was awesome. The dance floor was packed from dinner to the end of the night and all the guests raved about how awesome they were. I don’t think my husband left the dance floor the whole night. They also worked with us having to change our wedding date due to COVID with no issues. My husband and I love this band and often go see them whenever we can because it’s always a good time! You will not regret having them as your band for your big day!

Don’t Call Me Francis is the best wedding band I have ever seen. My wife and I recently hired them as our wedding band and couldn’t speak more highly of them. The band offered a multitude of services from ceremony music, to cocktail hour music, event DJ, and a full band capable of playing a variety of songs. The band was diligent about communicating with us prior to the event to ensure all of our needs were met throughout the process. Carmelita and Billy were so helpful in the pre-wedding planning and a pleasure to work with. Due to Covid restrictions, we had neve had the chance to see the band live prior to our wedding. We were truly WOWed by seeing them live. They were so fun to listen to and performed an interactive show which even got our most bashful guests on the dance floor. Seriously, I have seen my uncle dance once in my life until our wedding and he was out there for an hour. I am a firm believer that having a good band can completely change the dynamic of a wedding and couldn’t have been more impressed with DCMF. I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone considering a band for their wedding!

DCMF knows how to work the crowd - not only are they fabulous artists, musicians, and singers but they are kind people and an absolute dream to work with. DCMF is without fail the best band I have ever danced to and I will hire them again and again. If you want to guarantee a good time, I promise they will not disappoint!

DCMF was the best wedding band ever! They had all of our guests on the dance floor before dinner was even served, and kept everyone dancing all night long. They play such a wide range of music genres they can get any age group out on the dance floor from your grandmom to your friends. They also performed a special request for us where our wedding song started with the record, and then they joined in halfway to finish the song and invited everyone on the dance floor. It was awesome! Can’t say enough good things about them.

Words can't describe how fabulous DCMF was performing for my wedding. My husband and I went to see numerous bands before choosing them, and they blew everyone out of the water. When people heard we hired them for our wedding, everyone was so excited. They did not disappoint! Their energy, stage presence, vocals, dance moves, you name it....were PHENOMENAL! My guests are still talking about how fabulous they were at my wedding. Carmelita was also fantastic to work with throughout this whole process when I was finalizing the timeline and details. If you want your wedding guests to be amazed, and everyone on the dance floor, make sure you hire DCMF for your wedding. You won't regret it!

I am beyond words to describe how happy we were to have DCMF band at our wedding in May 2021! 3 months later all of our family and friends are still talking about how amazing the band was, and how they made our wedding the most memorable and best one yet! We have seen the band quite a few times at the shore and in south Jersey, but hiring them for our wedding was one of the best decisions we have made! Amazing performance aside, the band/management was so great to work with through the process - planning a wedding is stressful, but they made it easy and stress free, so accommodating and helpful along the way!!! We have seen a few of their shows since the wedding and they always make sure to give us shout outs - we truly feel like part of the DCMF family! Thank you for making our wedding day so special, and we will see you at my sister’s wedding in 2023 😄 Love, the Morreale and Downes crew

Our wedding reception was this past Memorial Day weekend, and outdoors. All our plans fell into place perfectly until the rain came and it came in buckets and brought with it a drop in temperature. Tears fell as we scrambled to make sure our guests would be dry and warm that evening. When the party started and everyone began to arrive they did so with smiles on their faces, so happy to be celebrating after a year of Covid isolation. The best part came when Don’t Call Me Francis band began to play. They had everybody up on their feet dancing the night away! We all had such a good time and were thrilled we had DCMF for our party. Professional, outstanding musicians that interacted with our guests and made everyone happy to be celebrating. Thank you Carmelita, Billy and Chunky you made our night a night to remember!

DCMF was incredible! We saw 5 bands perform live before we made a decision for our wedding. After only a minute of seeing DCMF perform, we knew they were hired! They have excellent stage presence, and are overall excellent muscicians who really know how to get the party going. All of our wedding guests are still talking about how amazing our band was - and one of our friends even tried to hire them for their own wedding next year. Overall, they were very easy to work with leading up to the big day. They made it a point to learn all our first dance songs which sounded amazing live! We couldn't have been happier with our experience and will continue to be fans of DCMF for years to come! I can't recommend them enough.

My husband and I had the DCMF band at our wedding this past fall. BEST DECISION EVER to book the band!! The dance floor was rocking the whole night; they even had an encore performance. Many of our guests have raved about the music and asked "where we found this band". Billy and Mary came out onto the dance floor and really were a part of our wedding and engaged with our guests. Billy was incredibly personable throughout the process and suggested many songs which made our night special, including the Eagles fight song. This band will learn any song if you tell them early! Carmelita and Lynn make sure to cover every detail and coordinate directly with the venue so you do not have to worry the week of or the night of the wedding. One of the most exciting things for us is knowing that we can continue to enjoy the DCMF band at local venues for years to come.

DCMF has been and will always be our favorite band. The saxophone player created the perfect ambiance for our cocktail hour. Then the band and DJ had every single person up and dancing during the reception! We were able to pick out the songs we wanted to hear for the reception. They can play such a variety of songs from oldies to rock, 2019 pop and hip hop. Our wedding was half traditional and half Nigerian. When the band took their break, my husband and I changed into our Nigerian garb and were introduced for a second time. The DJ played such an AWESOME mix of Nigerian music as we came out and up until the band came back on for their second set. DCMF band is professional, personable, and truly organized. We did not have to worry about anything when it came to the music. We were truly in good hands.

DCMF Band was the highlight of the wedding. We had one request from the band prior to the affair: "DON'T LET ANYONE GET OFF OF THE DANCE FLOOR!". I am happy to report that there was NEVER a time when someone wasn't dancing. They are professional, talented, kind, badass & Lovely....did I mention TALENTED??? We HIGHLY recommend them! Truly FANTASTIC.

We are in an absolute state of euphoria, and the band is one of the reasons! We cannot begin to tell you how much we enjoyed every minute of the music. People didn't sit down, they were up on their feet dancing all night. Let's face it, there are really just a few things that make a wedding - the food, the venue and the band. We hit the trifecta. What a great, talented group of people -- members were so sweet and accommodating. Couldn't have asked for me. We would highly recommend them.

I booked the DCMF Band for my daughter’s wedding and they were a huge hit! The dance floor was packed all night. DCMF does a great job at reading the crowd. They are talented, professional, fun and engaging. Billy touched base with my daughter and her husband yet before the wedding to firm-up and confirm their special requests. Carmelita and Lynn were very easy to work with. We brought our own DJ (a friend of the Groom’s family) and the transitions from the band to DJ and back were seamless. Highly recommend DCMF for your next event!

The Don't Call Me Francis Band has been our favorite for many years. We were ecstatic when we called to ask about booking them for our daughter's wedding and they were available. From the first to last note the dance floor was packed and the excitement built throughout the night. The trio which performed during the cocktail hour received rave reviews as well. Carmelita made the booking process simple and was so kind to answer all our questions. Billy touched base with our daughter and son-in-law and honored all their playlist requests. The interactive nature of the band was popular with our guests too and at the end of the night we felt like having the band was a dream come true.

Best decisions we made!!! Our guest are still talking about how amazing the music was!!

AMAZING, AMAZING, AMAZING! DCMF is the best band out there!! This is our second time using them for a family event and we will continue to use them when needed. Professional, friendly, and very easy to work with, you can’t go wrong. We had 270 guests at the wedding and everyone of them was on the floor dancing all night.

If the DCMF Band is available to play at your wedding and you don't hire them, you're crazy! They are worth every penny and then some. We booked the band prior to booking our venue and they did not disappoint. The dance floor was packed all night long and our guests have not stopped talking about how amazing the band was. Billy and Lynn were wonderful to work with and were quick to respond to questions. The Band honored all of our requests regarding the setlist and kept it moving all night. We HIGHLY recommend the DCMF Band!

Amazing. No other words necessary. It was like Louie Armstrong and Aretha Franklin were in the house. Only heard great things from all our guests.

If you are even considering hiring a band for your wedding, look no further. You've found them! I researched bands extensively from New York City, Philly, and locally, and nobody came close to the energy and talent of Don't Call Me Francis. My fiance was hesitant with the price of hiring a band vs a DJ but the morning after our wedding just kept saying how great they were! All of our guests raved about how much fun they had, the dance floor was full the entire night. People were dancing from the moment they entered the reception and the band played all of our requests. The MC reached out to us as well as the band manager Billy to ensure they had all of our names and requests and they were always easy to get in contact with if needed. They are awesome! I hope we can hire them again in the future for a birthday party, anniversary, any party! Soooo worth it!

I can't say enough about DCMF Band! I grew up watching them play at the Jersey shore, so when we decided to have a band, I knew just the perfect one. We had the absolute best night of our life at our wedding last month. From beginning to end, we were dancing, singing on stage with the band (thanks Adriana, Mary, and Billy!), and having a blast with our guests. They took note of every song suggestion we gave them, and played their own set to keep the energy of the crowd up the whole time. There was not an empty dance floor all night. Carmelita and Lynn were a huge help in the planning process as well. Highly recommend having them play at your wedding! You won't regret it!

DCMF Band brought the heat at our wedding ( as expected of course)! Their setlist at the reception was perfectly planned and the cadence of songs flowed perfectly with the energy of the night. This was all made possible by how amenable they were to hearing our preferences and song requests. Furthermore they ensured our ceremony and cocktail hour were perfectly accounted for with songs that fit the mood and setting. A special thank you to Carmelita and Billy for being so available for pre wedding discussions and planning. I was truly honored to have DCMF, an iconic south jersey band take care of our wedding. I have seen them play many times over the years and every performance has been stellar. Most importantly, they made sure our night was distinct and catered to my wife, myself and our guests for a unique performance. Thank you DCMF!

We first saw the DCMF band at the shore. We knew we had to book them for my daughter's wedding 10/6/2018. Did not disappoint. Billy was in contact with my daughter on a few occasions a month before the wedding to make sure of our song choices. Our guests danced ALL night! Our banquet manager could not get people off the dance floor to announce the bridal party. Our feedback from guests was: it was the best wedding they had been to. Thank you all for making our event so memorable!!!

DCMF is the best band ever! Everyone danced the entire night! When the wedding was coming to an end, the crowd chanted "one more song, one more song'- we got one more song and then the crowd chanted "10 more songs, 10 more songs"! The band was fantastic! We have been getting rave reviews from all of our guests. The week before the wedding the band checked in about our requests and how to say names to ensure everything was perfect. Book this band!

My husband and I were so very grateful to have had the DCMF band play at our Wedding on October 14, 2017 in Cape May, NJ at the Grand Hotel. From the band Director, Billy, who was so very helpful down to every artistic detail, from day 1 of planning to the day of our wedding, to the band manager with planning and responding to our every question. I could not have been happier! As the bride you have so many details to orchestrate, I did not have to worry or hesitate when it came to the band choice. We received dozens of compliments by all our guests. Everyone was on the dance floor all night long ,from friends and relatives to my 94 year old grandmother. They played variations for all the ages. Our wedding was very memorable and we will never forget how the band tailored the music special for our wedding guests and our choices. We had a blast! I highly recommend the DCMF band if you are looking for LIVE entertaining and beyond talented musicians for your special day!

Best wedding band of all time. They were beyond accommodating, played everything we asked for even at the last minute. All the guests came up to me afterwards saying they were the best band they’ve ever seen. Thank you for making our night perfect!!!

When Brian and I decided to get married, we wanted to have only the best entertainment for our guests and of course ourselves; it was a difficult decision (because I know so many different bands throughout the tri-state area) but we definitely made the right decision with choosing The Don’t Call Me Francis Band. The Don’t Call Me Francis Band really made our wedding reception an event to remember. Their performance was exceptional (which I had no doubt that it would not be any other way). They performed all the songs that not only we requested but the songs that our guests requested as well. Even to this day, my friends and family are still talking about the wonderful time that they had at our wedding reception. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND The Don’t Call Me Francis Band to all my friends and family and to whom ever wants excellent entertainment. Whenever the band is playing locally, Brian and I try to get out to see them; the band members and everyone involved with the Don’t Call Me Francis Band have become a part of our family. You are the BEST band and will always have a special place in our hearts. We love you all.

This band MADE my wedding! People are STILL talking about what a blast it was! The energy, the skill set, all was AMAZING! Our dance floor was PACKED the whole night! If you want fun and high energy for your next event, BOOK THIS BAND! They Rock!

Wow!!!!!! Hands down it was the best decision to hire Don't Call Me Francis for our wedding. The experience both with the planning and the execution was phenomenal. No stress, what so ever. Expectations were exceeded. The band did an amazing job and people still talk about the wedding to this day. Thank you for being number one. - Maria

The Don't Call Me Francis Band was the best wedding band we could have asked for. We got married at Cairnwood Estate in May 2017 and the band went above and beyond to ensure we had the best reception possible. They went out to the venue in advance to check out the space and ensure we would be ok for AV/technical capabilities. We saw them perform at the shore beforehand and knew we couldn't possibly pick another band. At our reception, everything was perfect. They played our first dance songs via MP3 (per our request) and then kicked off the party with the full band. Our friends and family kept telling us that this was the best wedding band they had ever heard - and we couldn't agree more. At the end of the night, they ended with Call On Me by A-Ha (which they had learned just for our wedding). After the song was over, our guests started chanting "one more song!" Because no one one wanted the music to stop. The band played one more song (Shout - a classic end of the wedding song) and we ended the evening on the best note possible. We truly couldn't have asked for a better experience!!

THE BEST BAND EVER!!!!!!!! I can't even put into words how awesome this band was. They played at our son and daughter in laws wedding. The brass played for the cocktail hour, which was the perfect touch. From the moment the band started playing at the reception until the end of the evening, people did not sit down. Which speaks volumes. Everyone can't stop talking about how incredible they band was. They made the evening a true success!!!!!!! They are definitely going to be playing for us when my daughter gets married.

I've been a huge fan of DCMF for many years now. For my wedding back in 2015, my dad surprised my husband and I with the band playing at our wedding. They put on an amazing show and no one left the dance floor all night. It's been almost two years since our wedding and our guests STILL talk about how awesome the entertainment was. They play all different genres of music to sparks everyone's interest. When the band is playing locally, I make it a point to go out to show my support and to enjoy their music!! They are the best band ever!!!!

The DCMF band played at our wedding a few weeks ago. While the music was great and our guests had a fantastic time, there were a few things that looking back that make me wonder whether the expense was worth it. First of all they are incredibly expensive. More than most other bands we looked at but we thought the number of pieces in the band and their unique sound would make them worth it. Second, they REQUIRE hot meals to be served to all band members and crew which meant an extra $1000 to our budget. We found out the week before our wedding that they were going on vacation until two days before the wedding so we never spoke with them regarding our song list or personal music selections. Lastly and most devastating is that they announced us by the wrong names at our reception. That is a moment that we cannot get back and with a little more attention to detail and some forethought could have been avoided. Maybe their increasing popularity, their customer service is decreasing. I would be extremely careful when booking them, unless you plan to be very diligent in the week leading up to the wedding to make sure they know what you want and who you are.

Couldn't have asked for better music, a better band or a better night - so happy we made this decision! DCMF all the way :)!

I can't even put into words how awesome this band was at our daughter's wedding. From the beginning to the end, people did NOT sit down. People have not stopped raving. They helped make the evening a true success.

They play every kind of music you would want to hear and they do it extremely well! The dance floor was NEVER empty because of them...even when the food was coming out! Many people told me that they were AMAZING! I especially like that they are a club band and not a wedding band. They did not play any cheesy music like the YMCA or the electric slide. The price of the band includes a DJ and he will play anything you request. He had a great voice and was an excellent emcee.
