unmatched, the whole band is so talented, and their song selection is so diverse and fun that you will never want to sit down. We could not be happier about our decision to hire The Exceptions and DJ Bobby Sacco to play at our wedding. Big shout out to Nate and Ali for the duet on our first song - we will never forget it!
If you are on the fence, do yourself a favor and hire The Exceptions - you will never regret it.

I cannot emphasize how incredibly talented and fun this group is. They work well together and make sure you have a great time.

veryone was having so much fun. After dinner, the band started playing, coming out onto the floor with us. Thpey were part of us. It was the best. They ran the entire wedding. They kept it flowing the entire night. No one sat down, they were phenomenal, and their price was so much better than other bands that we priced out. so if you’re looking for a band with horns, wonderful singers and people that are just plain fun hire the Exceptions you will not be disappointed.
I am so happy we chose the exceptions for our wedding. We had bill as our DJ/ MC. The exceptions and Bill were amazing. They made the night! When you are at a wedding, the band ca...
n make or break the night. The exceptions/ Bill MADE the night. They are so lively! The sax and trumpet players come out into the the audience and get the crowd going. I have been to many wedding, when they have an an awesome band, but when the band takes a break, the wedding is like boring. That was NOT the case. Bill made sure to keep the party going. The other thing, I asked Bill or the exceptions for a song and they played it immediately which was nice as the bride! I am so happy we chose the exceptions and bill for our day! The other thing was the sound was perfect! The band comes with sound personnel which is also such a win! If you want a lovely, lively, and fun band, look no further!

edding and I knew from the moment an elderly couple hit the dance floor before dinner even started that they were going to play at my wedding too. They do not traditionally play weddings, and do more shows in the Philly and Atlantic City area, but we were able to convince them to come to Virginia for our wedding and they rocked the house. Our wedding planner asked if they would be willing to keep traveling down for more weddings, they were that good!
The head girl really kept the crowd going and in check a the same time. They are extremely flexible and listened to all requests from guests, and easily made announcements for me when I needed them to. They were just awesome.
They also worked with us to have a late night DJ from the band play music after the band shut down. He did an awesome job too. It was a seamless transition.
Wonderful!! I had an amazing wedding and was very pleased with everything from start to finish and the Exceptions were the cherry on top of the sundae! They kept everyone up and ...
