These guys are wonderful.

The 5 piece band played during cocktails and dinner. Fun, upbeat standards. We had 2 of them play during the ceremony itself and they were juts wonderful. We also used their DJ services after dinner. I dont remember a wedding reception that had a packed dance floor from start to finish. We loved In the Blue! Highly recommend!

Great jazz combo!

We had an excellent experience. The online forms were easy to use and they played viby music during our cocktail hour on the patio. We were initially unsure about having a Hammond Organ, but it sounded great outside! We had a jazz musician in the wedding party who had nothing but the highest praise for the trio that was playing. We would recommend In the Blue to anyone getting married in the area.

Really set the tone!

People were greeted by this wonderful ensemble for our wedding. They really set the tone with their up beat and fresh sound. HIGHLY recommend them, as young professional teams like this group are hard to come by!
