A special shoutout to the entire crew for coming out on the dance floor, interacting with our guests, and making the experience amazing.
We cannot recommend the Sultans highly enough. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our wedding day the most fun day of our lives. 10/10, we would do it all over again exactly the same way.

of our guests told us they felt like they were at a concert or performance they were so good. Many said it was the best wedding band they'd ever experienced, and we agree. They performed with the crowd and even let guests sing into the microphone for a line or two, and everyone felt so special. I highly recommend the Sultans of Swing as a wedding band.

each just about the process the band, the songs, the musicians , And get us the best talent for the best price for our date. Jerry and Leslie and the rest of the sultans team were very organized and efficient and had great initial intake forms and song selection forms To ensure a seamless process. From the moment they hit the stage, their energy was infectious, they even got on the Dance floor with us and I even got behind the microphone with the band to belt out “walking on sunshine” performing during the wedding to all of our guests! The Sultan’s energy, flexibility, and engagement with the crowd was fantastic ! Our guests went out of their way to let us know how amazing the band was ! Their song selection was fantastic, blending classic dance hits with modern favorites and pop throwbacks that catered to all ages. The charisma and stage presence were fantastic but what impressed us most was their professionalism. They were punctual, well-organized, and communicated with us throughout the event to ensure everything went smoothly. They even took the time to learn the exact timing to cut our special songs for our first dance, which made it all the more memorable.
If you're looking for a talented band that will keep the energy high, look no further than the Sultans! Thank you for making our wedding a truly epic celebration

The singers and band itself were fantastic throughout the whole night! They kept the energy high and were incredible engaging with the crowd to keep the whole night fun! We were very lucky to have them as our band for the night and they made the best day of our life even more special!

ecific requests for transitions and announcements that they nailed every time. And the band, OMG the band!!! From the moment they started playing, the atmosphere was electric. Their diverse repertoire catered to all tastes, ensuring that every guest found a favorite tune to dance to. The seamless transitions between songs and the band’s infectious energy created a lively and vibrant ambiance that lasted well into the night. The musicians’ talent and professionalism were evident, making them the ideal choice for anyone seeking an exceptional wedding entertainment experience. We can’t thank The Sultan’s enough for turning our celebration into a magical, music-filled night. I have received feedback from many guests (who are not easily impressed) that it was the most fun they ever had at a wedding. No doubt, The Sultans were a huge part of creating that energy! A solid 5-star recommendation!

My husband and I used to see the Sultans play in Edgartown when we were dating; we knew we had to have them play at our wedding and couldn’t be more thankful to Jerry and his team ...
for making it happen! From the first note played, our guests were on the dance floor and didn’t want to leave - they are still talking about how amazing the night was two months later. The lead singers were incredibly charismatic, with amazing range, and the band brought the house down time and again. They took all of our preferences into account, and surprised us with live versions of songs we didn’t expect, which was such a personal touch. They also went above and beyond to include a song at the end of the set that is meaningful to our friend group. Their attention to detail and absolutely flawless performance helped make our wedding day a true night to remember.

The Sultans were beyond our wildest expectations. They were the first vendor we picked after we selected our wedding venue because we knew we had to have them. From the very beginn...
ing of the night, they had everyone up and dancing all the way until the night was over. Literally, people did not sit down. JG, Troy, Jillian J, and Leon were absolutely incredible and had everyone so engaged the entire time. Since our wedding last week, we have had so many of our guests reach out to us letting us know how amazing they thought the band was and that they were the best wedding band they have heard. The true surprise of the night was after the MOH speech where she mentioned the groom loved the song Zombie, by the Cranberries, they then decided to surprise us and play that song off the cuff. The songs they played throughout the night were the perfect range of music that no matter the age had people dancing. Thank you again to Leslie and Jerry for helping us pull together the most incredible lineup we could have ever imagined. Look no further, The Sultans are the only wedding band you need!!!

I hope to use them at one of our own events someday.. Absolutely 5 stars all the way around!!

tion that my husband and I had. From pop, disco, Motown, rock... they did it all! Our guests did not stop dancing from the moment the wedding started until well after the wedding ended. After all our planning there was nothing better to hear from our guests that “the band was amazing” and that “that band was the best they’ve ever heard”. After being to lots of wedding as a guest myself the music can really make me break the night... do yourself a favor and book the sultans, you won’t regret it!

We had the sultans of swing as our wedding band and they were absolutely amazing. They worked very closely with me to understand what type of music we wanted at the wedding and to ...
make it as personalized as possible. I worked with Leslie and she was so responsive- every time I emailed her she responded right away. The band had all of the guests up and dancing all night which is exactly what we wanted. The only two things that I would change are 1. the band drove to the event each in their own cars, so we had to pay for parking for each person - it would have been nice if they tried to carpool. 2. they required a case of cold water to be there for them the day of the event. I did have it for them but it was just one extra thing that I had to do on the day of the wedding and it would have been nice if they could have brought their own waters. I 100% would recommend this band to anyone and I would hire them again if I have another event that needs a band.

The Sultans are incredibly talented and each band member made a lasting impression. We still get compliments about how much our guests loved our wedding band!

Live music was a huge priority for our wedding as we have several musicians in the family. The Sultans of Swing did not disappoint! We were a bit worried at first because there wer...
e no opportunities to hear the band live before we booked, and we were frustrated at times by the process because we paid extra to reserve particular musicians (Erin and Jake), but were met with resistance and had to follow up several times to feel confident that this would actually happen. However, everything worked out in the end, and they even sent an extra singer who ended up being great at getting people on the dance floor and having a good time. The groom’s 90 year old grandmother even hit the dance floor, and everyone of all ages had a blast! We are still hearing about what a great time everyone had. Erin and Jake were excellent choices and we would definitely recommend them!

We were so incredibly pleased with every single member of seven-person band, The Sultans, that came to play ...
at our reception. They were the epitome of professionalism and performance. Our guests danced the entire time they played and everyone raved about the live entertainment following the event.
We specifically appreciated that the band took our requests and musical taste to heart. The was no point in the evening that they strayed from our vision. We also appreciated their energy. Several members of the band came out into the crowd to interact with our guests. Of course, everyone loved this!
Leslie was also incredibly responsive and supportive throughout the planning process. It has been a pleasure working with the entire team both leading up to the wedding and during the event. The Sultans were sheer perfection and I would recommend them to anyone!

The bar was high for our wedding band as my husband made a living via a live music band in his 20s. We also had the challenge of bringing together young and old from two different ...
continents with hopes that everyone would be on the dance floor. All I can say is The Sultans of Swing delivered an evening well beyond our expectations. It was incredible. Every person at our wedding hit the dance floor and many are still talking about the band and all said the ceremony music was the best they ever heard. Jerry Bennet himself came by our reception to ensure everything was going well, which we really appreciated. So, my ultimate advice, if you want folks to hurry through the meal so they can make it to the dance floor, The Sultans of Swing is the band for you!
