John Paris Band

We had a wonderful experience with the John Paris Band both before and especially during our wedding day. They were very professional and easy to work with in planning the reception. For an additional fee, they also provided an emcee and a DJ for the dinner. After reading all the rave reviews and checking out the videos, I was psyched to finally hear the band perform. They were every bit as great as I’d hoped. The band really kicked our reception into high gear and got (nearly) everyone up and dancing, clapping, and singing along. They even played «Word Crimes» instead of «Blurred Lines» for the English teacher groom. Their forte is classic soul /​R & B, but they also play wonderful versions of jazz and songbook classics (Sinatra, Fitzgerald, etc.) as well as contemporary pop songs. Both lead vocalists have great voices and the horn section was dynamite. Many guests commented on how great the band sounded and I couldn’t disagree. They turned a great wedding reception into an unforgettable one. Highly recommended. — Lon Wehrle (groom)

The John Paris Band is outstanding! They played at my wedding on 7.4.15 and really got people dancing and having a good time which is exactly what we wanted. John Paris himself is very professional, accommodating, and a pleasure to work with. I would not hesitate to recommend to a friend who is looking for a band for a wedding or other party. The MC for the evening was great too! I had him take requests during the cocktail hour which was alot of fun. The guests did have a list of suggested songs, but could request anything. The most memorable performance by the band was «Oh What a Night» when they split the crowd in half and had everyone singing and dancing. We were looking for a band that played many motown hits and they fit the bill with amazing performances. It was so fun. I can not believe how affordable they are when the talent they possess. I received many many compliments on them. If you are looking for a band for your wedding or party, do not hesitate. Thank you John Paris Band!

The John Paris Band made our wedding reception tons of fun! All of our family and guests absolutely loved them! They got everybody, of all ages, up and dancing! They were also extremely professional and accommodating. They worked with me before the wedding to make sure they knew exactly what I wanted for the ceremony music, dinner music, and dance music, and that I was happy with everything. Everything went perfectly according to plan! I cannot say enough good things about them and would highly recommend them to anyone who is interested in booking a great dance band!

John Paris is so easy and professional to work with. My event was successful because of them. John Paris went above and beyond. He was very responsive to any email or text I sent him. I will definitely work with John Paris Band again.

We worked with John Paris to create a spectacular evening of music. The John Paris Ensembles handled all of the music for our ceremony and reception, and I highly recommend them! John is easy to work with and really went above and beyond to accommodate all of our requests. I can’t tell you how many compliments we received on our ceremony music — the vocalist has an absolutely beautiful voice. Everyone had a blast dancing at the reception, too! It was a perfect day. If you’re planning a wedding, you want John Paris on your team. As far as wedding entertainment goes, this is as good as it gets!
