The Swooners played above and beyond at our wedding. We found them purely on research and couldn’t be happier. We gave them a loose idea of songs we wanted to hear, and allowed them the freedom to read the crowd. That was a great choice. The Swooners successfully gave our guests and my wife and I the party of the year!

“The Swooners were the hit of our wedding! We hired them for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. They were easy to work with, entertaining and sound amazing! I am still receiving compliments from our guests of how much they enjoyed The Swooners. Many older guests have shared with me that they’re the best band they’ve ever heard at a wedding. They're award winning for a reason! Thanks again to Mark and the gang for making our wedding the best night ever.”

“I can’t express my gratitude for the incredible performance the band put on Saturday night. Compliments keep flocking in from all of the attendees and the Oak Hill staff. Our guests ranged from 18 to 90 years old and everyone danced and sang with the band all night long. Our daughter’s wedding was a major undertaking for my family and we appreciate The Swooners turning it into an event everyone will always remember..”

“Honestly the best wedding band I've ever heard. They're just a really great band, period. They can play a variety of genres (our jam music loving friends loved that they threw in a few Phish songs) and built 3 really fun set lists to cater to a variety of musical tastes. Couldn't recommend them enough.”

“The Swooners are excellent! I hold music degrees and teach orchestra. Hands down, I believe you should hire this group. They were recommended to me through a trusted music colleague. They are worth the cost. The variety and balance in the group is strong. My family and friends seek out other gigs that The Swooners are playing, since our wedding. They get people up and dancing from all generations!”

“All of our guests raved about The Swooners and we had an absolute blast with them. Not only are they so talented, but the nicest people. We needed to reschedule our date and the band was really accommodating. If I could get married again I’d 100% book them!”

-Sarah M.
