Janis Nowlan Band is the BEST choice we made for our wedding!!! They made our wedding amazing!! We heard them play at our friends wedding and as soon as we started planning our own- we thought of Janis! From the first time I called her and throughout the wedding planning, Janis was sooo easy to talk to, so understanding and SO helpful. She really listened to me and my husband and her and her band made great choices for our day! The band played for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception and we have gotten SO many compliments on how great our band was. Janis Nowlan Band learned our first dance and made it unforgettable for us. Janis learned the bridal parties names and went over it with me multiple times to make sure everything was perfect! From the youngest person at our wedding to the oldest, EVERYONE was on the dance floor!!! Janis Nowlan Band is the best!

The Janis Nowlan band is amazing, professional and fun. The quality of their music far exceeds any other band I have heard in the area. I enjoyed them at a friend's wedding in July and then my organization hired them for our 10th Anniversary Gala in October. It was a "corporate" event but we still had the crowd up and dancing. It was a blast. If you want your guests to have a good time, hire this band. They can adapt to any crowd with an impressive and endless list of songs. You will not be sorry.

Obviously, these guys sound great. I specifically hired them because a girl needs a full horn section for Springsteen, and dancing to "Born to Run" with my father is one of my favorite memories from my wedding. But what was extraordinary was Janis' counsel. I initially refused to have Adele's "Rolling in the Deep" played at my wedding (I thought the "lost love" theme was too much of a downer for a wedding). Janis politely suggested that I not completely write the song off because she knew - as an expert on the subject - that crowds were going wild for that song. I reluctantly caved, but when they started playing that song, I got so excited and so did all my guests. My husband and best man turned it into a "dance off" and I can now not imagine my wedding without that memory. Thanks to Janis for being the expert I hired and leading me in the right direction.

Yeah, they rocked. There is a reason they are rated #1 in the region. I got what I wanted, and the dancing was awesome as a result.. We had an uncle who asked to play a CD so he could don his Elvis impersonation and it worked. They learned a traditional Korean song for us, and polished up a song they hadn't done in years so we could close out w/ father of the bride singng his favorite song. Many people exclaimed how good they were, and how much fun it was. They did piano for the cocktail hour, and then music through dinner, for the first dance, Introduced us the way we wanted, everything was great. They say if the band is outstanding the party will be memorable. I know people had more fun at our wedding than they had ever had at a wedding, ever.

Holy cow... best wedding band out there! I couldn't even count how many people came up to me or my husband at the wedding or for weeks after asking me about Janis and her band. They all couldn't stop saying how we had "the best wedding band they've ever seen!" and I couldn't agree more. From day 1, Janis was professional, helpful, responsive, and enthusiastic. You will struggle to find someone who loves their job more than she does. We had an amazing time at our wedding and a big piece of that was the fact that everyone was out there on the floor dancing. I would recommend Janis Nowlan Band to anyone - best use of your wedding budget by far!!!

Janis Nowlan and her band made my daughter's wedding. Everyone had fabulous time and the dancing and energy that was created by her band lead to an evening of none stop dancing. She was very professional to deal with and welcome all my ideas and thoughts for the entertainment. She was all about making the bride and groom's day as special and perfect as they expected. She's a must to hire for a guaranteed great time and memorable occasion.

My (now) husband said that the band needed to be our top priority, since the band makes the party. Because of that, we splurged on Janis Nowlan Band and we are so glad we did! Janis was very easy to work with and responsive to all of our questions and requests. Whenever we hesitated or weren't sure about a song, she had great suggestions. At our wedding, the music was wonderful and the crowd never stopped dancing. Even a few months after the wedding, we receive compliments from friends and relatives.

The Janis Nowlan Band performed at my wedding this summer, and they were truly unbelievable! Everyone was on the dance floor the entire night--- they followed my requested play list, played an amazing variety of music, and everyone sounded soooo great! We received a ton of compliments from our family & friends, and continue to do so a few months later. If you are looking for a high energy, yet classy, band, look no further! And Janis herself is truly a pleasure to work with--- such a nice lady.

One of the best decisions we made while wedding planning was booking the Janis Nowlan Band. Their energy, talent, and fantastic personalities made our wedding! The compliments from our guests regarding the music and the energy of the band are still coming even after the wedding!
Janis was incredibly helpful in answering our questions and providing guidance and feedback about music selection during our planning process. We worked together to create a playlist that complimented the flow of the wedding perfectly! The band even learned a specific version of my father-daughter dance song so that it was everything we wanted!
Janis and her band members are truly one-of-a-kind, talented, and beautiful people inside and out.

As soon as we heard their showcase we knew we had to have them at our wedding! Every member of the band has incredible energy and no one is more passionate about what they do than Janis.
She worked around our schedule during the planning process and listened to all of our needs.
When it came to the big day we really couldn't have asked for more. The energy was great and the band knew exactly what to play to keep everyone on the floor. They really made the party special.
Our guests are still telling us how amazing the band was!!

We cannot say enough about the value that Janis and the band brought to our wedding celebration. They played nonstop and the interaction with our guests was wonderful. We had a somewhat casual but very elegant event that was top notch in every way. However, our guests are still talking about the band and hoping we will have an anniversary party every year with the Janis Nowlan Band providing the entertainment. We were very lucky to have been able to book Janis and would not have changed a thing about their performance. Our expectations were exceded.

The Janis Nowlan Band is simply the best! I have attended many weddings/other events and they are the best I have ever heard. I knew from the minute I attended their open showcase that I had to have them play at the wedding! As soon as I saw them play I stopped looking for other bands immediately!! They made my wedding and had people dancing the entire night. Everyone is still telling me how great the band was!! Not only are they great performers but Janis is super nice and extremely responsive. I would recommend them to anyone!

The Janis Nowlan Band went above and beyond to give us the most incredibly fun night of our lives. There was not a single song that they left out as far as what I had hoped for and more. They have such an amazing energy about them. Our guests did not want the night to end and in fact, we asked Janis and the Band to stay two hours overtime b/c they are that good. They were hands-down the most phenomenal band ever to work with and to get to know. They are THE BEST!!!

The Janis Nowlan Band set the tone for the entire night of my wedding. I can't remember a time throughout the whole night that the dance floor wasn't packed. My guests had an absolute blast and all of the band were so friendly and accommodating. The band members were interactive with all of my guests and they all made it so much fun for everyone.
