It's time to CELEBRATE... so it's time to call Marino Music!

 

Nick R Wedding Reception

Marino Music was the full package for our Wedding Reception. They started us off with jazz then added the full band for early evening dancing and finally DJFM filled and kept the dance floor moving until the night was over. Additionally, Frank Marino was a great emcee for the evening and was even able to pronounce a lot of difficult family names which was important to us. More important than the music and emceeing was Frank's dedication to delivering the best evening for us. He was available for us from our initial contact until the day of the wedding and made sure he understood and delivered exactly what we wanted.


Jorge and Jill's Wedding

Thank you so very much for your tremendous performance at our wedding! The music could not have been better. We know that there are so many things that you did that we don't even know about.


Our first song blew everyone away. They never expected that as the first dance. You all did it perfectly and the "Riestra" lyrics were great. Everyone has raved about the ceremony music. Thank so much for getting them involved. It really made it a personal touch for me that you were part of this special day. Please keep us informed as to where you will be performing.

We would be thrilled to give you a reference as the best band in Nashville and also as exceptional music consultants. Your guidance and recommendations far exceeded our expectations.
 
Many, many thanks!!!!

The Hardin Wedding

Dear Frank, Diane and the band,

I want to thank you all so very much for bringing such fun to my wedding on
September 15, 2007. The music was fabulous and as service providers, you are
unmatched. You were always so helpful, fair and easy to work with. I feel
like you went above and beyond anything expected of a wedding band. When I
had wedding issues, you helped me out when no one else would have. You
really did whatever it took to take the pressure off me and make my day and
the days leading up to it, stress free and wonderful.

thank you for everything

Allison's Wedding

Dear Diane and Frank I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for making all the music at Allison and Nathan’s wedding so memorable. First, Diane let me thank you and your classical colleagues for being so flexible concerning my requests for specific classical numbers during the prelude. Not only did you sound wonderful-your interpretation of those favorites of mine, especially The Evening Star from Taunhauser and the Bach numbers was truly memorable. Allison and I had very firm ideas about what sort of music we wanted in the ceremony and you exceeded our expectations. Frank, one of the most unique things about having your band perform both the ceremony and reception, was seeing the extraordinary range of repertoire your group has. Allison, Nathan and I loved the jazz and also the Brazilian numbers. Diane, after hearing you sing at the reception, I think maybe I missed an opportunity do classical vocal music as well. Many, many people have commented on your singing and all the band members who played at the reception.. it was great to listen to, but also be able to have conversation during the dinner. Your music was an integral component of the relaxed and happy atmosphere we hoped to provide for the reception. With the help of both of you and your band, the evening was a great success.

Terry and Don Swartz

Frank, I just wanted you to know, once again, the magnificent job your Good Company band did performing for our wedding reception at the Union Station Hotel. Don and I both believe you played the most significant role in making it a grand occasion. We are still getting comments from friends and family on how much fun they had dancing all evening, and on the outstanding quality of the band. Dad did a great job in selecting you over any of the other bands we had considered. Given his long history in the music business both in New York and Nashville, you should consider it an honor that he thought you should play my wedding. He is especially discriminating when it comes to quality music. With all the details of planning a large formal wedding, it was such a relief to know I did not need to worry about the band. I was impressed with your professionalism during the planning stages and knew the music would be just perfect-and it was. Thanks again for making this most important day of my life that much more special. The memories will be treasured for a lifetime.

Sincerely,
Terry and Don Swartz
