  • “We were beyond impressed with John Parker's performance, professionalism and the ease of working with him for our Palm Beach destination wedding.

    All we've heard from our guests since the wedding (mostly from NYC) was how they were completely blown away by his performance, and we couldn't agree more!

    John and band were fantastic, from his & female vocalist's voices and the band & sound, to his upbeat emceeing and ability to keep everyone on the dance floor throughout the night.

    We're incredibly grateful to JP for making our special day absolutely unforgettable. Thank you John!”

  • “John Parker was SO organized and professional, he made everything very easy.

    Kept us organized through the whole process from the beginning when we first met & booked the band - up until our wedding day. He was with us & quick to help whenever we needed advice or suggestions.

    When it came to the band, we were blown away.. our guests all danced endlessly & the band was so fun.

    All in all can't say enough good things about our experience with JP! Our friends and family keep telling us about “that band”, even now, weeks later.. Best wedding ever!”

    He and his band were really fun and popular with our guests.

    Def knows how to handle the crowd and keep them dancing, and is way better vs. others we had seen at our friends' weddings. (they said that too!)

    So glad we were able to get him, very highly recommended!”

    We did not have to worry about anything!

    My husband & many of our guests are in the performing arts & we really appreciated their playing & singing, and people won't stop telling us we need to plan another party have them again.

    Really appreciate you all being with us on our special day. Thank you JP!”

  • “This band is worth every penny. JP MAKES the wedding. (This was actually my 3rd JPB performance. We literally planned our wedding date around his availability.)

    My tip (besides hiring this band): Don't give them too many music recommendations. Give them a general idea of what you like & don't, and let John read the room — he's a PRO at it..

    The band even learned our first dance song just for our wedding, as it wasn't on their list of 1,000 tracks they already knew — we hadn't expected it, and it was a sweet surprise.

    thank you!”

    Every conversation that we have with friends and family who were in attendance involves you and your band. You all were really incredible! We can not wait to see the videos and the photos to relive that night.

    Thank you so much for everything, wishing you the best!

    READ JOHN PARKER BAND REVIEWS

Be Smart!

ALL of THESE reviews are of John Parker & his ONE band! - SO many companies sell the SAME band name MANY times on the SAME date using COMPLETELY different people - So reviews about them are worthless if you don't get those same people.

You can contact our reviews! - many other bands' "reviews" are written by the bands themselves, & promoted by websites that SELL them advertising on big wedding vendor sites. Sad, but true.

as in you can contact 100% of them!- because the reviews you see here are REAL John Parker band clients who YOU can call or email to talk to about how the JP band made their wedding, party, or gala great!

PS: we're SORRY! - We don't stuff a camera or phone in our clients face at the end of the night to make them give us a video testimonial - It's rude, it's incredibly tacky, & we're not going to do that to people (including YOU)! (but, hey, if that's your thing, not to worry - there's plenty of other bands that will! :)

Want clients' email addresses & phone numbers? GREAT - we can give you hundreds! You can then talk to people when it's NOT the end of their wedding or event & they're trying to say goodbye to their guests - LOL

AND KNOW; a lot of companies have "no negative reviews" clauses in their contracts (we do NOT) - and many PAY for positive reviews (yep, really) We think that's BS.

JP has no "twin" or "lookalike" - As nowadays so many "bands" are just companies that send out random musicians using the SAME band name for different events all across the country! - so a review for them means literally nothing because you have NO idea exactly who YOU will be getting. Does that seem good? Not to us.

Need someone professional, experienced, dependable & AWESOME that you can COUNT on? - JP was personally at EVERY event reviewed here, & John will personally be at YOUR event too!


With most bands you really don't know WHAT you're going to get. With John Parker - you DO!


  • "You guys were INCREDIBLE! There are no words, honestly.

    I cannot tell you how many people asked where we found you guys… because everyone wants to have you play at their wedding too!

    I truly cannot thank you and your band enough for making our day absolutely amazing. I have never been to a wedding where when the lights turn on at the end of the night the dance floor was full, but you did tell me that would be the case and you did not disappoint.

    Thank You, thank you, thank you, Bri "

John Parker Impressive Wedding Band Review WW Bride Emily

“It would be hard to imagine a more perfect evening. You and the band “grabbed” our guests from the moment they entered the ballroom, and kept them “rockin” the entire night. We could have not asked for a better performance, Simply speaking YOU WERE GREAT!…your personal involvement and enthusiasm was apparent to the audience as a whole…. our sincere thanks to you and the entire band for providing a major ingredient to the success of the evening…. we couldn’t be more pleased. ” -DavidTyson

I hope that someday we get the opportunity to work together again, you have a great team…” – Lew Shepherd
