To all who want to have the WEDDING OF A LIFETIME:
The MIB Band was absolutely amazing and truly made our wedding a night to remember for myself, husband, family and friends. We got married 5 months ago and everyone is still talking about the band :)
I would highly recommend them to anyone hosting a function. One of the greatest things they gave my husband and I was the opportunity to be guests at our own wedding! And just in case you're wondering, it is very difficult to let someone you don't know take charge on a day that you have planned for years. I gave them my introductions and they took it perfectly from there. Seriously, not one mistake, not one "awkward wedding moment" ..it was perfect! We did not have to worry about anything but dancing and having an amazing time. They are unbelievably talented, professional, fun, arrived early, sang and performed giving 1000% and kept every last guest dancing! No one sat down at our wedding.
I would be happy to give a personal recommendation to them with my name on it any day. I owe them a huge "thank you" for making our wedding not great...but phenominal.
Thank you!! Thank you!! I wish you all much luck and many, many more happy brides and grooms in the future!

Hi Ralph,
We wanted to thank you and the rest of Men In Black for helping to make our wedding reception incredible. You certainly followed through with your promise to kick ass! We were incredibly impressed by your professionalism, talent, and ability to connect to the audience. You should all take great pride in how happy you make people. We received compliment after compliment from our guests.
We also need to thank Pam for being utterly responsive and helpful throughout the process. In return for the great night you gave us, we would be happy to supply a recommendation for potential clients who are having a tough time making a decision.
Sincerely,
Ezra and Jill (September 4, 2011 wedding)
Hi Pamela and Tania,
I just wanted to touch base and let you know how much I loved working with the Men in Black Band this last Saturday at the Hotel Viking in Newport.
Being a wedding photographer, I have seen and heard a LOT of wedding bands and these guys were so clearly above and beyond any of the rest!
Because the guests and the bride and groom were having such a blast, it makes the night so much more fun and it really shows up in the pictures, which makes our job so much more fun too! :)
Thanks a million and best of luck to the band!

Hi Ralph,
I wanted to just send you a quick note to say thank you! You guys were awesome! Despite the hurricane, time changes, floods and hotel evacuations, the wedding was amazing and you guys kept the party going (even at 2 in the afternoon!). The "Come on Irene" song was perfect and my dad said his favorite part of the wedding was when he got to sing 'I love that dirty water'. You really really made it a memorable event. You guys were pleasure to work with and I wish you all of the best moving forward!
Thanks!
Sara and Rob (August 27, 2011 wedding)
Dear Pamela,
Men in Black performed at my daughter's wedding this past weekend and contributed to making this the most fabulous day in my daughter's life. She (Laura Stern) and Danny Shribman, could not have been happier. Please also let us know where to post our comments on line about how fabulous the band was.
Many thanks,
Bob Stern, Father of the Bride (June 25, 2011 wedding)
Hi Ralph,
You definitely lived up to your promise! This was the best night of my life and Men In Black definitely was a huge part of the reason. All our friends and family couldn't stop talking about how much fun you made it and how great you guys were. So thank you thank you thank you!!!! And hopefully Eric and I can come see you guys play when we're in Boston next time!!
Best,

Ralph & Men In Black,
Thanks for a great party last night. People have been raving about the band all day and I particularly loved my stint as "the cowbell girl."
I really appreciate it!

Men In Black,
These guys rocked. Went to a wedding where they played a couple years ago and they were unbelievable. had them at our wedding this month and people danced before they ate salad and never stopped. Made the wedding GREAT!

Dear Ralph and the whole Men In Black crew.
Thank you for making our wedding amazing !!! The band absolutely made the night and I cannot begin to count how many people said it was the best band they've ever seen, including one of our cousins who is a wedding DJ. I was abit hesitant at first about some of the wedding party involvement and the centerpiece give away but in trusting in you was the wisest thing I did on my wedding day. We have an amazingly funny picture of my mom and dad dancing around the table with a napkin in one hand and a dollar in the other. Absouletly priceless !!!
Thank you also for your flexibility in staying later when our whole time frame got shifted. I was worried it might be wasted time going late and never imagined our dance floor would be packed to the gills at 1 am, but sure enough it was !!!
I can not put into words how wonderful Men In Black was, but in summary you made our wedding perfect !!!
Have a wonderful 2011 !!
Best, Ruth & Derek Levesque

Hey Men in Black,
Patty and I just wanted to drop you this note, to reiterate what a terrific job you all did at our daughter Colleen’s wedding on Saturday, 23 October 2010! You guys should be headliners in Las Vegas! I can tell you, virtually everyone at the wedding commented on what a fantastic band you are and what an unbelievable time all our guests had! We received so many compliments and so many requests for your contact information that you will be booked indefinitely! So I’m sure we will see you all very soon again! In addition, Patty & I were equally pleased with Tania and the Hank Agency!!! Tania was just wonderful!
Thanks again for a great job!
Bob and Patty
Dear Men In Black,
What can we say? It’s been nearly three months since you sang at our daughter’s wedding and people are still talking about the great job you did. There wasn’t anyone who wasn’t out on the dance floor, including the priest who married them! You’re not only great singers, you’re great guys. We can’t thank you enough for making our special day so memorable and so much fun!
Bill and Linda

I cannot emphasize enough how grateful I am to every member of Men in Black for truly making our wedding a special experience for everyone. Not only did every single one of our guests get up and dance, but it was so obvious all were enjoying themselves. I received numerous compliments on the band both during and after the reception. I would not hesitate to hire Men in Black again for a future event.
Chris and Siobhan Pomeroy
Dear Hank Agency and Men In Black WOW !!!!
What can I say ??? I never thought a band could get my husband up dancing, but MIB did !!!! Their energy, timing and performance far exceeded our expectations. We still get emails from our guests asking who our band was because they loved them so much. Word can’t describe there performance just OUTSTANDING !!! Thank you so much MIB. Also a special thanks to Pam for being so wonderful throughout the whole process, and making it possible to book this band, You made our wedding.
Best Wishes

We just wanted to thank you for the BEST wedding we have ever been to!! We are dad & stepmom to the bride and we could not have been happier with you folks!! You were sooo much fun and got EVERYONE up dancing-even some of the grandparents who NEVER dance were dancing!! All our guests were & still are raving about how much fun you were! You are all so talented-every song was so great!
Thanks Again & we look forward to hearing you again!!
We say this for all of us at the McClosky wedding @ New Seabury Country Club!!

Liz and I wanted to thank you all for making our wedding reception absolutely amazing! Our guests keep telling us that the Men in Black were awesome! The dance floor was literally full from the moment of our first dance to the final song. We cannot thank you enough for such an amazing night.
We highly recommend the Men in Black to anyone who wants to have a FUN wedding!
Jim and Liz
M I B played at our son’s wedding this week end in Rockport, and rock the port is just what they did. A full night of dancing was had by all. These guys are not just a band...THEY ARE ENTERTAINERS!
THANKS FOR A WONDERFUL, FUN FILLED EVENING.

Men In Black played at my daughter’s wedding this past weekend and I just want you to know that we LOVED the band. The dance floor was packed all night and everyone had a great time. People were coming up to me all night to tell me that you were the best wedding band that they had ever seen - and you were a pleasure to work with!!!
Thank you.
Denise
I wanted to thank Ralph and Crew for such an amazing night. Having never seen Men In Black live before booking, I found it hard to believe that they would get people dancing off the bat (like I was told by so many people). Boy was I surprised !!!! The band was absolutely AMAZING!!! We literally did not stop dancing all night! We had people who NEVER dance, and I mean NEVER,EVER dance, on the dance floor from beginning to end. I can not begin to tell you how many people have come up to me and told me that this is the best band they have ever heard!! All ages were throughly enterained at the wedding, thanks to the amazing range of songs that the band could play! I already know a couple of people that are planning on calling you for their kids wedding!
Please extend my thanks to all the Band Members!!!!
THANK-YOU THANK-YOU THANK-YOU !!!!!

Men in Black provided the music for my sister’s wedding in 2006, where my husband and I first met. When we got engaged the first thing people asked me was...."are you getting Men in Black"? Of course I was, there was no way that we were going to get married without them!
The Band was amazing and got everyone on the dance floor, even those who never dance! We also never left the dance floor and got some great candid’s because of it! The best part was that my husband’s group of friends from home have a song they love to sing and the Band was kind enough to like them borrow the mic- it made the boys night and I really appreciated that!
It’s been 3 months since the day and we are still getting calls on how great they were. Everyone agrees.... they are the best wedding band EVER!
My husband and I are already trying to think of another reason to hire them.
Kristin & Tom Simon
We just want to thank the band for making an already special day freaking awesome! All of our friends and family told us that they have never had more fun at a wedding and it is all because of the band! They had the bridal party up and singing with them including us rocking out to Bon Jovi! They even made the giving away of the center pieces a blast! I never thought I’d see my father in law dance around a table twirling a napkin over his head!
Thanks again for the best time and we cant wait to see you guys again.
Joe and Kristen
Ralph and Pam
I cannot thank you both enough for such an amazing night on our wedding night Oct 24,2009! The music was UNBELIEVABLE!! I can’t even find the right words to express how much fun we had!! We just returned from our Maui honeymoon and people are still calling us to say how WONDERFUL the band was. You played all of the right music to keep everyone on the dance floor. My new husband and I barely left the dance floor and he dosen’t even like to dance!! Just wanted to send you both a quick note to express how happy I was with your service. I would totally recommend you to all my family and friends. You guys were amazing;
Thanks again Nicole Wandy-Now Nicole Shippee (-;
OMG!! I just left the wedding you perfomed at on 11 Nov. 09 and you all were AWESOME!! The groom’s Polish grandmother was a dancing fool and on her way to sit down would start up dancing again! I think the selection of the band was the first thing they decided on when planning the wedding! Do you perform anywhere other than weddings? Around Boston or anything? You put on a great show and the music is incredible! I can’t say enough great things! I would gladly go see you guys (and girl) perform!
Kudos on a job exceptionally done! ;o)

Hello Pam and Men In Black!
I wanted to say how happy we were with our band choice for our September 12, 2009 wedding at Spring Valley Country Club. Men In Black was AMAZING! So many guests came up to us and said how great the band was and asked where we found them. You guys had everyone, young and old, dancing. You knew exactly how to get everyone up and going. A special shout out to your agent Pam. She was so helpful to us from the very beginning to the very end. She promised us you guys would be amazing, and you absolutely were. I would recommend you to anyone; we couldn’t have been happier.
Thanks again for giving us and all our guests a fabulous time!
Kathryn Kushner
Hi-I was at the Kosterlitz/Martino wedding Aug 1,2009 at The Wychmere Harbor Club... WOW. Men In Black were great. I mean Truly GREAT. They were the perfect accompaniment for the group of people that were there...the energy level was awesome. Dancing,laughing,singing. Really they were perfect for the day. And the song selection-that took the cake. Is there any way to get a copy of the play list from the wedding ?? I’d like to download all of the songs and put them on a cd for the bride and groom. Thanks again for making the reception so much FUN !!!!
James Laviano
To The Hank Agency;
I am not looking to book the band,I just want to comment on them,and hopefully you can pass it on to the band members. THEY ARE EXCELLENT !!!! I am a guitar player,88 Berklee grad, and I am not really playing anymore,but possibly subing for a friend of mines band, so I was just checking out all the Boston wedding bands online and listeneing to them. I probally listened to at least 10-15 bands before I came across MIB. All the other bands who claim to be Boston’s best bands all sound like a "wedding band"-no soul,bad harmonies actually,too much harmonies and "over-doing it" I was EXTREMELY IMPRESSED with MIB. The lead singer/guitar player is very soulful all the harmonies were AWESOME. The female lead singer kicks ass. Keep up the good work MIB.
You guys ROCK!!
Bobby
Hi Pam
I have been meaning to drop a note in the mail as well, but I wanted to let you know how delighted we were with Men In Black at our wedding on Block Island 6/13/09. They took all of our song suggestions to heart, they played exactly what we wanted to hear-and then some!!! The crowd never stopped dancing - from our flower girls to our grandmothers, it was unbelievable!!! They went above and beyond what we expected. We have an endless stream of compliments saying that ours was the "best wedding I have ever been to" - and I think we have Men In Black to thank for a large portion of that. They were so much fun, they barely took breaks, and they played FOREVER!!! All in all,they rocked. We loved every second of it.
Please pass on our gratitude to Ralph and the band. There are truly no words to say how much fun we had and how much fun everyone had!! Thank you so much for all of your hard work - what a fantastick evening to remember.
Most Sincerely, Amanda & Andy Cobb
Hi Tania,
This is Nathan Suher with Wedding Reels Video. I recently received a DVD from you which utilized some footage I shot of the band Men In Black last November. I thought you guys did a fantastic job using my footage for their promotional DVD. I really appreciate the exposure. Thank you so much. I will always recommend you guys if any of my clients are interested in your services.

This is long overdue, but I just wanted to say thank you for rocking the house at Cassandra and Steve Schembri’s Wedding. It was exactly what we had anticipated. Our friends and family love you all and still I run into people who attended and they ask Cassandra and Steve to get divorced and do it all over again.
See you at our annual Christmas Party.
Love to all.

Hi Guys!!!

I just photographed a wedding on December 27th. Men In Black performed for over 6 Hours. What a SHOW!. They had the whole place rocking. Could not help but take great photos of the band and how they got the audience involved in the performance. Even I wanted to dance...and I was not drinking (I usually have a two drink minimum before dancing). I would recomend this band for anyone....but only if you want to have FUN!

I just wanted to drop you both a quick note to say how AMAZING Men In Black were at the Hard Rock on Friday night! Everyone has been raving and sending me emails to tell me what a great time they had. Men In Black/Me & Julio are by far the absoulute best band that I have seen EVER in and around MA & RI. I have already started referring people,including my brother that is getting married next August. Please pass my thanks on to Jeff and Shannon and the rest of the guys,and plan to see us again next year.
You guys totally ROCK.

Gail I just wanted to tell you how phenomenal Men In Black were! They positively took an already happy group of people to the next level. My daughter Jen and her now husband James, had one main theme they wanted for their wedding - Fun Fun Fun. Well Men In Black helped us achieve that and more. I have had SO MANY COMPLIMENTS on the band. They really tuned in to what we wanted, and were totally focused on making sure we were all having a great time. I want to let you and them know... they succeded completely, and I thank you all very, very much. Anyone considering a band for their wedding (or any other event ) should certainly choose this band. If anyone ever requests a personal referral,please have them contact me and I will be glad to give it. I have already referred a few more girls to your agency. Thanks again and please pass this along to Ralph !!
p.s. One more compliment, the band learned "Everything" by Michael Buble’ for Jen and James first dance... I can’t tell you how great it was... they sounded BETTER than the M Buble’ version. It was just AMAZING !!! What a great band.
Jen and James Doyle
Hi Ralph
Mike and I wanted to write and thank you and the rest of the band for an INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE at our wedding reception on August 9th. You guys were absouletly amazing !! You had people dancing all night... our photographer and videographer even stayed longer just to hear Men In Black play, it was unbelievable ... You played a variety of music and found songs that everyone enjoyed. And when we thought the night couldn’t get any better, you invited Mike and I up to sing Bon Jovi with you guys... Just recently seeing the video from that night confirmed just how wonderful of a job you all did !! When I spoke with you the week before our wedding, you promised me our reception was going to rock--and it definitely did !! It’s been almost 2 months since the day, and our guests are still talking about you guys. Men In Black made our reception !!!!! We can’t thank you guys enough.
Please feel free to use us as a reference at any time.
Sincerely,
Alison and Michael Pasiner
Wow!! That is all I can say. Everyone has been raving about how amazing MIB was at our wedding! They played our wedding on 9/6/08 at the Royal Sonesta and played to the room size and the crowd perfectly We had a variety of ages at the wedding and everyone loved it. The dance floor was packed all night! Everyone kept asking me where I found them.
One of the things I was worried about was that the band would be too loud, and they were just perfect. They are so skilled at what they do. I am happy to provide a reference anytime!
Suzanne & Todd
WOW!!!!!!! That is all I can say!! We have seen Men In Black at other weddings,that is why we had chosen them for our wedding.... but last night they blew us away!! The band made our entire night! They we courteous,profesional..... and new exactly how to throw an awesome party!! A special thank you to the band for getting Matt up there on stage playing the guitar....and the entire wedding party jamming out!! SO MUCH FUN!!!! Please pass this along to the band Gail and all engaged couples. They were incredible. They made the whole wedding!!!
Sincerly,

MEN IN BLACK recently performed at my daughters wedding (July 19, 2008) and were outstanding!! People continue to say how great they were,things like "the best wedding ever, especially the band!". We, the bride and groom in particular,especially liked the end where the band got the bridesmaids,then the groomsmen,lastly the bride and groom,up to sing with the band. The only regret about that was that we thought the party was about over and had let the photographer go. You might suggest that the band advise someone in the wedding party NOT to let photographer go until the band is truly done. What a blast we had. No one is does it better than this band.
Please pass our great thanks and apprecitation on to Ralph and Jeff and the rest of the band,and if you need any references,feel free to include us!!

Hi Ralph!
I am currently back from my honeymoon! just got back last evening and wanted to write and thank you and the rest of the band for an absolute amazing time at my wedding on July 5th. I don’t know how many people came up to me and asked where we found you and that you were the best wedding band they had ever heard! You made the entire evening and day so much better. The wedding band was one of the most important parts for me and you exceeded and surpassed any expectations that I could have had. I feel I could go on forever thanking you as I can not express how overjoyed and happy I was with all of you. Just when I thought you couldn’t find another great song to play you came out with another 10 that people danced to! I never wanted it to end.
Even your break music couldn’t keep people off the dance floor! Honestly people have said this was the best wedding they have been to and I can definitely say that you were probably the main reason for that! Thank you so much again for everything, as well as Tania thank you for helping me in choosing them, you couldn’t have been more right!!! I know my parents have already talked about getting you for my dad’s 60 birthday !! Hopefully I will see you again over the years and please do not hesitate to contact me for any reason.
Thank you for adding in making it the the best day of my life!!!
Sincerely,
Anne Palm Mormina
Hey MIB and Pam,
We really can’t thank you guys enough! From the very beginning planning stages Pam and Ralph, you were so much more helpful then I could have even hoped for, and then the actual wedding was AMAZING!!!! You really made our 4th of July wedding so spectacular.
Thank you, Thank you!!!!
Tricia & Sean Breslin
Dear MIB and Pam,
From the first song until the last, your band was completely fantastic. Well, actually, even that is an understatement. We’ve been to our fair share of weddings, and many of our guests too, would be old pros at weddings, thought your band, their performance and professionalism was by and large the best they had ever seen. Sarah and I believe this would more accurately sum up our collective agreement and we would further like to add our own heartfelt testament to your great raving referrals. We are so very pleased with the interactive approach you provided our guests, in a non-intrusive, friendly and uncontrived manner. Guests both young and old had a night they will all remember. We thank you very, very much and please know that we will be recommending your band to all of our friends.
Best wishes and thanks again!!
John & Sarah Barrella
MIB,
Thank you for another year of great music at the Nashoba Valley Special Olympics fundraiser. Your music selection was perfect, and your sound is tremendous. Always a great event if you are the band.
Sharon
Guys,
You were great (again) last night at our fundrasier in Westford. We rasied a lot of money for our group and people really had fun thanks to you. Men in Black is becoming legondary in Westford!
Thanks again,

Hey Guys -
To all who want a band for their wedding-hire "Men In Black". They were a blast! I think the highlight of the night was when one of the band members was on the floor with my husband and his ushers spinning on their backs. They are lively, fun, and know just the right music to play to get your guests up on the dance floor. All of our guests had a blast and said it was the best wedding they had ever been to.
Thanks "Men in Black" for making our wedding one for the record books!!!
KRISTEN and JOHN MARCHESE
Dear MIB,
There is only one way to say this...YOU GUYS ROCK!!!!!!!
As a result of hiring Men In Black, we can honestly say on behalf of our guests that WE HAD THE BEST WEDDDING,EVER!! It has been over a month since the big day and people are still ranting and raving about the wedding, and most importantly, about the band! The fact that the dance floor was packed all night, including while dinner was served, says it all !! Oh, and I mustin forget to mention the fact that we had an outdoor reception under a tent and the police were called in 3 times to break up the party. But MIB just kept on playing(and they even played a little extra at the end just b/c they were having a great time as well!!) Even the police on there 3rd attempted to stop the party gave up and joined in. It was amazing !!
The band was right on target with judging the musical moods of the guests and you knew exactly which songs everyone wanted to dance to, and in which order they should be played. There alot of copy cat bands out there,but you guys and girl are THE REAL DEAL. You practically brought down the tent when you ended the night with BonJovi’s "Livin On A Prayer"!!
Thank you so much for being such a great and important part of our wedding day. We will HIGHLY recommend you for any and every wedding we hear about.
Keith and Laura Darrow
Hi Pam, Sorry it has taken so long for me to write you but we absolutely LOVED Men In Black. They were amazing!! People continue to comment on how great they were. Our dance floor was packed and they truly rocked the house. I am so happy that we had them and will highly recommend them to EVERYONE I CAN... They were so great to work with and really know what they are doing ,how to get the crowd engaged... just FABULOUS!! My Dad can NOT stop raving about them. He is quite a ham so whenever they gave him a cowbell and had him on stage... he was in love ;;))
He had such a great night and that means the world to me.
Thanks so much for all your help.

Hi Tania
After 18 months of planning, our daughters wedding has come and gone. Your suggestion that Men In Black would be the perfect band for a fun and lively wedding was perfect. The music appealed to every age group (our youngest guests were age 7 and our oldest just turned 86). As soon as the first songs began there were people on the dance floor and the dancing never stopped. A completely conservative lawyer friend was on the floor doing the "gator" when the band played "Shout". One of the grooms female classmates grabbed my friends husband for very fast dancing. The guest were relaxed,and mingling with people they had never met before, and having a wonderful time.
The band was incredible. Shannon offered my daughter her own earings when she temporarily lost her own. Ralph told me that the band was the one thing in the wedding planning that I did not have to worry about and he was right. The compliments keep coming in. I have already received a written letter from an out of town groom side guest thanking us for a great time. One of the guests ran into someone from the reception wait staff. The waitress said she has never seen so many people having so much fun at wedding. A friend called yesterday and said the reception was the best one she attended.
The photographer said the minute the band began to play he knew that this was going to be a great reception. He commented how this band is not just going through the motions like every other wedding band he has seen. They genuinely are enthusiastic, and love what they do. After interviewing a few bands on our own we contacted you. You asked a few questions and then suggested that Men In Black was "the" band we were looking for. From the keyboard during cocktail hour to the final dance of the the night, the band was outstanding.
We will be recommending not only Men In Black but also The Hank Agency.
Thank you so much Men In Black and Tania.
Regards,
Ginny Sweeney and Steve Guimond

Hi Tania
We just got back from our honeymoon late Saturday night and I was going through our home voice mail just now and heard your message of well wishes the day before our wedding. Sorry we werent able to get back to you until now,but I wanted to let you know we appreciated the call. But most importantly, that Men In Black was ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL !!!! Yours and others raves about this band were no exaggeration. They are truly the best wedding band on the planet, and it was the best decision we ever made to book them !! Jeff,Ralph,Shannon, and the whole band MADE our reception. Everyone who attended is still talking about how much fun we all had and how Men In Black was honestly the best wedding band they had ever heard. Even the most shy, reserved people were out on the floor with sweat dripping down their necks; the energy was simply contagious! Tim and I have actually remarked that it would have been impossible for people not to dance at our wedding, because even of for some crazy reason people didn’t want to get out there, Jeff and the gang would have physically pulled people onto the dance floor. In fact, my groom himself, Tim, tends to be a quieter guy and they even got him on stage with his groomsmen,and were all singing together with the band and had a total blast doing it.
We just loved the genuine attention they gave to us and our guests. It’s amazing to us that the bands attitude was so fresh, that they made us feel like ours was the first and best wedding they ever played at. They also played the perfect balance and flow of ballads and upbeat dance songs.
We also want to thank Men In Black for doing a FANTASTICK cover of our wedding song, "I Want Everything" by Luna. Not only do we appreciate that they learned it for us for our first dance, but we were amazed at how great it sounded !!! It’s definitely an obscure song that very few people have ever heard before, so we didn’t know what to expect, but we couldn’t imagine it sounding better, It was perfect, Thank you !!!
A huge hug again to Ralph and Jeff and the whole band for making our wedding so AMAZING. They were kind, respectful, friendly, super-upbeat, and super-super talented, and put on an unforgettable show for our wedding. For many reasons, many of our guests have already told us that ours was the best wedding they have ever attened and we know Men In Black was a big reason for that. And thank-you Tania for being a pleasure to work with through out the whole planning process. And I will definitely be more than happy to serve as a reference if you ever need one (though,no doubt you have plenty!!)
Cheers,
Collen & Tim Fairchild
Ralph,
What can we say. Men In Black blew us out of the water on our Aug 4, 2007 wedding. We planned our wedding for 16 months and we have to say that the element of a wedding that can truly make or break how much of a success the reception is,is the band. I say that with no hesitation. The band defines the night and Men In Black allowed for our wedding to be one for the memory books. We are STILL talking about it one month later. People told us we couldn’t possibly have chosen a better band. People were calling asking how we found you and wanting to book you for their weddings!!! You all had people dancing before the meal even started until you finished at midnight. The energy level in the room was amazing and you played to all generations. Your level of PROFESSIONALISM and PASSION shows in your music and we still cannot get over how sensational you made our reception. We listened to every band in the metro Boston area and decided on Men In Black because of the energy that you bring to an event. We wanted an elegant city wedding with a band that keeps the night going and you gave us more that we ever could have dreamed of. I want to give you all HUGE hugs for giving us a dream come true night!!!
We could gush about Men In Black for the rest of our lives.
