Do you have any pricing flexibility?

The short answer: yes. The long answer… Our couples generally aren't looking for cheap - they're looking for the best possible entertainment for their biggest party ever. Beach Nights' wedding rate sits near the top of the market for New England wedding bands, and that comes with a guarantee that you're getting one of the most award-winning, well-reviewed wedding bands available today. We're industry veterans with countless happy clients and overflowing dance floors, with a state-of-the-art sound system AND a DJ included, so there’s never a break in the party. If this is your vision for your wedding party, we're your guys.

That said, we never like to let budget get in the way of a great party. We’ll do whatever we can to make sure we match your vision for the day perfectly, and that includes price. Let us know what you’ve set aside and we’ll do everything we can to work with you!

What sets you apart from other wedding bands?

We absolutely LOVE doing this for a living. We get dropped in the middle of the best day of someone’s life every weekend, and there’s simply no better feeling than seeing it all come together on wedding day with friends and family laughing, crying and dancing together.

We're not a traditional "wedding band." No horns, no cheesy synth, no YMCA… you get the idea. What we ARE is an award-winning, Knot Hall-of-Fame rock band that does weddings. And they are incredible. In addition to the high-energy live band rocking out on stage, you’ll ALSO get a professional DJ/MC to keep the party going during our breaks. Our Live Band & DJ Combo is a trendsetter in the industry, and it means there's absolutely no break in the party from beginning to end. The DJ also handles dinner music, toasts and introductions. It’s a whole thing.

Wait, you were BearFight??

Yep that’s us! From 2006-2020 we performed in the popular Boston band BearFight, and earned tons of 5-star reviews and accolades from hundreds of awesome wedding clients. During the pandemic, two original BearFighters retired, so we brought in some former subs full-time and rebranded to give you the same awesome stage energy and song selections with the new brand you see today. Cheers to new beginnings!

Do you take requests?

YES! Our clients have full control of our entire setlist - select as many or as few songs as you'd like, and we'll build a killer dance party set around it. And if you've always dreamed of singing with a live band at your wedding, the stage is YOURS.

Will you learn new songs for my event?

Absolutely, just tell us what you’d like to hear! If we can't add it to our song library for whatever reason, our DJ will play it during our set breaks. Literally NO song is off limits.

What do you accept for payments?

We have multiple payment options:

  • Zelle (our preferred method of payment)

  • Cash (always nice)

  • Credit Card

  • Venmo

  • Paypal

  • Bank Transfer

What do you wear on stage?

From black tie to beach cocktail casual, we will gladly match whatever your guests are wearing. Just let us know the preferred attire for the night!

Will you perform for my ceremony and cocktail hour too?

We offer multiple options for ceremonies and cocktail hours, including DJ/MC and acoustic solo or duo performances. Each ceremony and cocktail package comes with its own professional sound system, so the guests in the back row don't miss a thing.

Are you fully insured?

Yes - we are registered as a small business with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts AND fully insured, so we can provide a certificate of insurance as needed.

How early do you arrive to set up?

Our professional sound and lighting team arrives 2-3 hours before guests arrive, giving us ample time to set up our sound and lighting system and sound check to match your specific venue's needs.

Do you provide other services, like uplighting or photobooths?

We are also a full-service planning and rental agency! We can provide uplighting, photobooth, photography and videography on demand, as well as many others!

Do we have to provide you with travel and accommodations?

There is NO extra charge for travel and accommodations down the road - those will factor right into your initial quote, so there are no hidden upcharges as the date approaches. We will book our own rooms, flights, ferries, etc. It’s less stuff for you to worry about, so you can focus on wedding planning.

What do we need to lock in our date with you?

To fully lock in your date, we accept a small booking fee and a signed contract. The booking fee will be deducted from your total balance, which is due one month prior to your event date.
