WEDDING RECEPTION CLIENTS

"Marquise did a great job at our daughter's wedding reception.They really turned the evening into a fabulous party, or as one of our guests wrote in a thank you note afterwards, 'a party to end all parties.' Shirleta and the two male singers did a great job of interacting with the crowd and keeping everyone on the dance floor. The whole band was fun to watch too, they are real entertainers, as well as great musicians. They were very good about adapting to our schedule and keeping the evening flowing. Everyone had such a good time and we couldn't have been more pleased. We wish we could do it all over again!"

Marquise was so fabulous at the Jan 3rd wedding we worked together ! They were delightful to work with (Shirleta is wonderful!) and went out of their way to make the night special for the bride and groom. I have always recommended Marquise as one of my top five bands, but my recommendation is even stronger after working with them last weekend. I can't say enough good things about them. The bride and groom were so happy and said the band was even better than their tape. I have another wedding with Marquise on October 23rd and I can't wait!

entire night!"

Marquise performed magnificently for our daughter's Bat Mitzvah and had our guests on the dance floor all night. The kids had a particularly great time enjoying the music and participating on stage. After having ridden the Bar/Bat Mitzvah circuit for the past few years, I unhesitatingly rank Marquise as number one in the Washington/Baltimore area.
    - Judge Jeffrey Gulin

"Marquise  performed at our daughter’s Bat Mitzvah reception and did an incredible job!  Their enthusiasm and capacity to entertain both the kids and adults was wonderful!  Shirleta was fantastic to work with and the kids clearly loved her…she is really gifted  Thanks so much for making our daughter’s celebration such a special night!"

     - Debra Bernstein

“Wow, what an incredible night!  Marquise truly transformed the atmosphere of our daughter’s party into a wonderful celebration.  Shirleta and the other singers had so much energy and did a great job in making Lauren and her friends feel involved.  The entire band seemed to really enjoy themselves which I know was felt by the whole crowd.  We highly recommend them!
