    The Ben Mallare Band is the absolute powerhouse of high-energy entertainment for weddings! Their performance is a dynamic fusion of talent, passion, charisma for days, and infections enthusiasm that transforms any celebration into a truly unforgettable experience. I am a Wedding Planner in Las Vegas (yes, the entertainment capital of the world) and I bring The Ben Mallare Band to every wedding I possibly can because they're THAT GOOD. From the first note to the final encore, they keep the energy soaring, ensuring the dance floor is alive with excitement. Extra bonus, the entire team is fantastic to work with from start to finish. Hands down the absolute best!! If you're looking for a band that will elevate your wedding celebration to new heights, Ben Mallare Band is the unrivaled choice for a night of non-stop, exhilarating fun!

    The Ben Mallare band played at our wedding (both ceremony and reception) and we could not have been happier! The music was fantastic, and all of our guests danced the whole night. Several of our guests also told us they were the best wedding band they’ve seen. The music was one of the most important aspects of our wedding to us and The Ben Mallare Band delivered. In addition to being great performers, they were also very easy to work with. Everyone was very responsive over email and helpful when we had questions. I highly recommend booking The Ben Mallare Band.

    Ben and team were, in many guests' opinions, the highlight of our wedding reception! The energy that the band brought, the professionalism of the team, etc. were better than we could have expected! Additionally, Andy and Ben were fantastic to work with during the planning process! 11/10 recommend :)

  • Ben Mallare Band is the best! We hired them to play at our wedding reception and we were very impressed. Music was fantastic and the band was a blast! They played all our favorite songs and even learned a few that we special requested. Guests raved that it was the best wedding band they have heard in a long time! Highly recommend.

    This is the band you want at your wedding! Ben’s team brought huge energy all night long and our dance floor was packed from the moment they stepped on stage through the end of the night. After our wedding, we had everyone from friends to uncles telling us that it was the best wedding band they’d ever seen. Ben’s team was collaborative in understanding our music preferences and learning a few special requests to make it an unforgettable night. We were also impressed with band’s high level of professionalism during the planning stages, while scheduling travel logistics, and on the big day. These guys know how to make your event shine. Do yourself a favor and lock this band in for your big day!

    Fantastic entertainers! Ben Mallare band performed at our daughter's wedding on June 3 at Solage in Calistoga. They were the best I've heard in a long time. Everyone danced until the very end of their performance at midnight. I highly recommend this band!

They were perfect, literally perfect. Through all our questions, requests, demands, inquiries, concerns, rescheduling, on and on and on, they were nothing but gracious, professional, prompt and courteous. Then they showed up and rocked the hell out of absolutely everyone. My wife and I, and every single one of our guests, give them the highest praise possible. And the cherry on top, they let me get on stage and jam with them. We had Ben and his band, which we clearly highly recommend dishing out the extra money for and locking in. Perfect.
