About The Moon Units: Weddings & Events

The Moon Units: Weddings & Events

Band

Hi, we're The Moon Units! We're known throughout California for our 600+ song list, our authentic on-stage chemistry, and performances that clients have called "better than the original bands" that recorded the songs. And because we're a real band, we offer prices that are just a fraction of what corporate booking agencies charge. We can't wait to play for you!

Five things set The Moon Units apart from other wedding bands. 1. Versatility: We know over 600 songs in all sorts of genres, and add new ones all the time. 2. Talent: Our players and singers hail from top music programs like Berklee College of Music, UCLA, and CalArts. 3. Authenticity: Ever go to a wedding and think the band was so ridiculously cheesy? Not The Moon Units! We're as authentic as a band you'd see in live club or theater. 4. Fun: How does fronting the band during live band karaoke sound? You can do it! It's available with all our packages. 5. Respect: We treat our clients with respect and never slap them with hidden fees.

  • The Moon Units MADE our wedding

    Verified review
    Ryan A.Nov 12

    When I say that Dylan and the Moon Units MADE our wedding, I am not exaggerating. They not only delivered, the exceeded our already high expectations in every way possible. Music was extremely important for my husband and me, and we knew immediately that we wanted a live band to elevate the evening. We found Dylan and the Moon Units' information online, and after finding that they were very within our budget we reached out and Dylan invited us to one of their gigs in Hollywood. We loved their vibe and booked them. We asked Dylan to play both our ceremony and our reception, as well as play preset playlists for our pre-ceremony and cocktail hour. Now, I must admit, because music was so important for my husband and my special day, we had *very* specific ideas for what we wanted. Dylan was extremely communicative, answering all of my extremely needy and detailed emails in a timely manner and doing everything he could to reassure me that we were in good hands. We made selections from the list of songs they knew, and also asked them to learn about 10 new songs for us, ranging from unique arrangements of existing songs to deep cuts from 90's movies. Dylan's communication was warm, expeditious, and professional, and I felt really well taken care of. At our wedding, though, is where they exceeded our expectations. The live music they played was amazing, and set the tone for our wedding in the exact way we were hoping for. At the reception, they kept the energy up with a perfectly curated playlist of our requests (and we had quite a lot!) songs they knew would keep the party going. Their song choices appealed to the older crowd as well as the Millennial crowd. Dylan even help me set up a surprise performance for my husband, where I sang one of this favorite songs ("Go Cubs Go") with the backing of the Moon Units band. It was an incredibly special moment. And creating special moments was what Dylan and the Moon Units did best. Somehow, they managed to keep the dance floor packed the entire evening. Months after our wedding, our guests have continuously called out Dylan and the Moon Units as an absolute highlight of our wedding, saying that it was musically one of the best weddings they have ever been to. All-in-all, I cannot recommend Dylan and the Moon Units enough. As someone who was VERY specific about the music at my wedding, they exceeded all of our expectations. Book them for your wedding ASAP - you will not be disappointed.

    Thank you so much, Ryan! You and Danny are such a fantastic couple, and every element of the wedding was so thoughtfully considered. We loved how much care you put into the music selection. It felt like a big honor to be entrusted with it, and it couldn't have gone any better from our perspective. Thank you again!

Their diverse range of music genres had everyone on the dance floor, catering to all our guests' music preferences. The energy they brought was infectious, creating a fantastic atmosphere that kept the party going all night long. Throughout the planning process, they were incredibly professional and kept us informed every step of the way. Their clear and prompt communication helped alleviate any stress we had about the entertainment aspect of the wedding. Their service was worth every penny! Our guests couldn't stop raving about how amazing they were and how they truly elevated the celebratory vibe. The band's talent and ability to engage with the crowd made our wedding reception a blast.

    I cannot say enough great things about The Moon Units! From the ease of communication leading up to the event to the day itself, the Moon Units were such a fun addition to our wedding and planning process. They made our wedding feel like a concert in the best way possible! Two days after the wedding, the thing we have heard most from our guests is, “Your band was amazing!!” So many thanks to Dylan and the team for bringing such great energy, fun, and talent to our day. If you’re in the process of planning your own wedding, look no further for your band - you have already found the Moon Units!!

    The Moon Units are amazing! We hired them for our wedding and we couldn't be happier with their performance. So many people came up to me during the wedding saying this is the BEST band they have seen at a wedding! We loved their energy and enthusiasm. They all clearly love what they do and it shows through their performances. We feel so lucky to have been able to work with such a talented and fun group of people. Cannot recommend them enough!
