“Literally the best wedding band I’ve ever heard. I’ve photographed nearly 300 weddings and have heard it all and I was BLOWN away. I found myself forgetting to do my own job since I was so captivated by their performance. Do yourself a favor for all your friends and family to have the party of the year, decade, life time.”

“We could not have asked for a better wedding band! Book Big Magic yesterday.
In the months leading up to our wedding, Sean Morin, the band leader and emcee, was highly responsive and organized, making the planning process smooth and stress-free. He even adapted seamlessly to a change in wedding planners halfway through our process, coordinating beautifully with our new planner to ensure everything went off without a hitch.
From the moment Big Magic started playing at our reception, the dance floor was never empty. The singers and musicians showcased their incredible talent, delivering tight harmonies and an excellent sound balance which made for an extremely polished performance. (I’m a member of a very musical family, so we know good live music when we hear it!)
Our guests were thoroughly engaged the entire reception because Big Magic kept the energy high all night. Remarkably, they only took one 15-minute break during the four hours they played. One of the best moments of the night was when Sean announced that the first shuttle bus would be leaving shortly, and the whole crowd booed! Big Magic even succumbed to the crowd’s request/demand for “One more song!” and launched into an encore of the nostalgic tune, "Wagon Wheel.” It was perfect.
On top of all of that, Sean coordinated with my dad to arrange and rehearse a special dedication song that my dad wanted to surprise my husband and me with at the reception. Big Magic treated my father like a pro and let him live out his Rat Pack crooner dreams.
We can't recommend Big Magic enough—they made our wedding truly unforgettable!”

“We recently hired Big Magic for our wedding in Maine. From the outset, Sean was very easy to communicate with and always prompt in his responses, even 9 months in advance of the wedding date. Sean is someone you look forward to talking to and puts you at ease. He made choosing the song selection easy and helped organize the flow of the day. Every business should have a Sean!
The performance itself was seriously amazing. You could tell these folks were music veterans with how tight their arrangement was. The energy and enthusiasm from every band member were incredible, and our guests all told us they were the best band they’d seen. The dance floor was packed the entire performance – no one wanted to sit down! The set list they came up with was perfect for the crowd and perfectly matched what we wanted in the party. The band has a very rich and full sound, and the two lead singers were engaging and brought the perfect vibe for each song. We can honestly say that Big Magic turned our reception into the party of a lifetime. We are both live music fans, and if Big Magic were performing at a concert, we would without a doubt buy tickets to see them, they are that good.
If you’re a couple considering a band for your wedding, or you’re looking for live music for another event you want to be memorable, you need to book this band before it’s too late. You won’t regret it.”

“We can’t recommend Big Magic enough! The band was simply incredible and had our guests dancing the whole night. They got rave reviews from everyone. Very high level of musicianship and professionalism. Sean and the band could not have been easier to work with and went above and beyond for us in every respect. Book them immediately!!”

“I am a wedding planner based on Mount Desert Island, and I had the pleasure of working with Sean and Big Magic for a wedding in Bar Harbor this July. Sean was incredible to work with; he is very thorough and professional, making the planning process seamless. On the wedding day, the band was great. They provided a small ensemble for the ceremony, which was lovely. And then the band performance far exceeded my expectations. They were fantastic, high energy, strong stage presence, and kept everyone on the dance floor. I highly recommend working with Big Magic; I can't wait to work with them again next year!”

“They are great! They learned our song, all the songs they played were hits, with awesome vocals, and the brass added a fun touch. Sean and his team were very professional. Everyone said they were the best band they had heard. Highly recommended!”

“Lit. Stop looking around and just book these guys. High energy, extremely talented, and easy to work with. You can tell when a group of musicians spends actual time together and it shows with this group. They absolutely brought the vibe, Me and my Wife didn't leave the dance floor all night!”
