    In fact, guests are still talking about what a great job you did and how they “have never danced so much at a wedding."

    We could not have asked for a more energetic and exciting performance. You were everything we expected and more.."

  • "What a wonderful job you did to make a memorable evening for the Debs at the Cinderella ball.

    My family and the committee felt that you had a nice mix of very current music and also oldies but goodies. In a crowd of all ages, that makes it a must which was obvious by the number of people dancing.

    We also want to let you know how much we appreciated how well you were received by the whole group thank you to you & the band for all your efforts in making an enjoyable night.."

  • "Truly amazing!  Energy was electrifying!!

    You and the band did an awesome job - our guests said that it was one of the best weddings that they’ve ever attended. 

    You have so many choices when planning a wedding but there truly is “no substitution”  for your band. 

    Thanks for being a major part of our magical evening.

    The John Parker Band performed at our recent wedding.

    They were fantastic. Every guest raved about how much they loved the band. Everyone danced up a storm.

    A few friends even hope to use them at their events. We would absolutely recommend them!"

    We did not have to worry about anything!

    My wife and I booked John for our wedding reception. From start to finish, they really set the tone & had our guests dancing all night!

    Everyone especially loved your refusal to stop when the folks at the [venue] tried to cut us off early.

    So thanks again for being such an important and wonderful part of our celebration. We'll be sure to tell people how great it was and hope we are fortunate enough to attend another one of your events in the future"

  • "John - cannot tell you how many inquiries we fielded about you and the band - you MADE the wedding.

    In particular, your range going from Neil Diamond to Motown to Italian Opera, in Italian and then all the great dance music.

    Thank you for making the wedding an over the top success!"

  • “We had JP play for a small wedding on Ocean Key Sunset Pier, 15 people and they played for us like we were a party of 100. I appreciated that.

    The best part was the next day around town we heard how much others liked them! We overheard at the pool how people at the hotel sat out on their balcony to listen to the band.

    The next night at a bar in town we heard a group saying how great the band was at the pier the night before as they were eating dinner, they stayed to listen. I was SO excited to hear that others could enjoy them too.

    Thank you John Parker - You rock! 😀”
