Firstly, congrats on the engagement! This is a very exciting time for you but also stressful, so that's why we’re here to help.

We are Jaker & Co.

In short, we’re a four-piece evening reception band, with a huge setlist and a set of charming twins to boot. We’ve been playing weddings and events for over 10 years and understand just how important it is to get everything perfect. You don’t want the same band as everyone else, right? You’ve come to the right place.

So why Jaker & Co?

Without blowing our own trumpet, we’re fun and professional, and the same age as most brides and grooms today. So we’re “your generation.”. This is where we differ from our competitors, as we know exactly what trends and songs are popular and get the dancefloor bopping, we’ll be able to advise you on the best playlist that will suit you best and please the crowd.
We’re also pretty much renowned for our people interaction and getting bodies up here, there and everywhere dancing. We’ll also take any song suggestions that you might have for the playlist prior to the day.
We've a ton of entertainment options at your disposal- from Jaker & Co, add a DJ service, or afternoon and ceremony choices, you name it- we most likely got it!

We go the extra mile to ensure your guests have the best time and you don't worry about the music..you just enjoy it.

MusicAngel Love Jaker & Co:Still not convinced? We’ve got the MusicAngel “Seal Of Approval”. And boy did we work for it- they only sign the best of the best in the Ireland and we had to go through some rigorous screening to prove ourselves to the label.

Thank you again to the band, and Paul. They were genuinely fabulous and provided such a magical musical backdrop to the ceremony and our evening.

Jaker are the loveliest group of guys, they had everyone up dancing all night long and were such a laugh too! So many people came to us complimenting the pianist and the band. If you want someone to look after ceremony music and drinks reception, right the way through to the small hours of the morning that is tailored to you, your venue and your guests, we highly recommend Jaker.

Amazing wedding band from start to finish, played for our ceremony and the timings were perfect.
They also played in the evening and the atmosphere was brilliant, the games really got everyone involved and set the tone for the night, we didn?t feel the need to keep requesting songs as they played all the best hits and really knew what the vibe of the wedding was.
All of our guests commented on the entertainment, It couldn?t have gone any better and I would highly recommend if you want really great, stress free entertainment that really gets the whole room dancing. Whether it be walking down the aisle, first dance or night time partying they really out done themselves at every part.

Myself and my husband Gavin would like to sincerely thank the lads of Jaker & Co for their exceptional performance at our wedding in the Midlands Park Hotel on 16.06.2023. The lads provided a beautiful acoustic guitar set at our wedding ceremony and in the evening they delivered a stellar performance for our evening wedding reception. It was a truly magical and enjoyable experience and the dancefloor was full for the whole night. Our guests were completely blown away and full of amazing compliments for the band. There was a delay to the ceremony which did have an impact on the timings for the remainder of our day but the lads of Jaker & Co were more than accomodating with this. Once again, a sincere thank you to the lads!! We would very highly recommend!!

Now after the we?ve left the Barnabrow bubble Mike and I just want to say thank you so much to Jaker & Co and DJ for making our reception so amazingly special. Everyone was raving about it. The only complaint that we and our guests had was that our feet were swollen and legs aching because we found it too difficult to leave the dance floor ????????. It was such a wonderful happy day.

Kind regards,

We cannot recommend Jaker & Co highly enough to perform at a wedding. They performed at ours at the Royal Marine hotel in Dun Laoghaire and had everyone up dancing the entire night. Many of our guests commented afterwards how incredible they were and that they had rarely been to a wedding where everyone was happy to dance to the band all night. The band really knew how to gauge the crowd. They even performed a fantastic rendition of a song that was requested that they had not performed before. The DJ set afterwards was also fantastic.

Response from Jaker & Co

Hi Orla & Alex, thanks for the great review! Delighted to hear you enjoyed the music, the guys said it was a great night and they were very happy to learn the new song. All the very best for the future to you both.

Hi Joanna,

Just wanted to reach out quickly to say a huge thank you to you and Jaker for the amazing time on Friday night!! Our guests were so entertained and we were given amazing feedback by the guests on the band. They were an absolute hit and we had the best time. I'm personally not much of a party person or dancer, but the guys definitely changed that for me!

So, thank you again for the amazing job. We'll keep an eye out for some of their public performance dates so we can see them again :)

Best,
Alyssa & Tadhg

The band and manager were super friendly and accommodating all the way up to the day and on the night of the wedding, the band were unreal! Everybody was raving about Jaker & Co! We can't thank the lads enough they took all our requests on board, catered to our crowd and kept the dancefloor full. Special shoutout for the pianist during our reception who was incredible. Everything was perfect - thank you!!

We had Jaker & Co. play for our wedding and they were simply amazing!
The dancefloor was full for the entire time that they were playing. Their song choice was excellent and they changed it up depending on who was on the dancefloor...from Wheatus to Joe Dolan!
They interacted a lot with the crowd aswell which was nice and made it all the more fun.

We also had Paul DJing for us afterwards and he kept things going with some great tunes and took many requests also.

All of our guests commented on how great the band were. We never got to see the band play live before our wedding because of the pandemic so we were booking based on reviews and videos on YouTube but we were so so happy with our choice.

Joanna - thank you for your professionalism and helpfulness throughout our emails over and back. You and the guys are amazing!

Response from Jaker & Co

Hi Sarah & Enda, thanks so much for taking the time to give us such a wonderful review! Ballykealey House is a stunning venue, and the band so enjoyed the night - it's always really rewarding to see the dancefloor full all night. All the best for the future, Jaker & Co x

The guys played our Day 2 wedding and they were AMAZING! What absolute gentlemen! So friendly, engaging and more than willing to have fun with the crowd. We couldn't have asked for a better band to make our day 2 a rousing success! Their versatility was astounding, even when a song was requested they hadn't rehearsed, they immediately began to riff how it could go and smashed an improv version of it. Couldn't reccomend them more ????????

The lads are so eneregetic and professional at what they do and they were a pleasure to deal with on the day. We can not recommend them enough to anyone looking for a good wedding band.

Thank you so much to Neil and Paul ( from Jaker & Co) for being part of our wedding reception! From the moment they came into the function room and started to play, the atmosphere was electric and we truly had the best time dancing to their amazing setlist. The floor was packed and our hearts were full seeing our friends and family having so much fun! With everything that has happened with Covid-19 over the past year and a half, there was no better feeling than hearing live music and being on a dance floor again! This duo are so talented and professional ? we?re so grateful we chose them and cannot thank Neil and Paul enough for making our day so special!

So please pass on our thanks to them - loved the first dance song too, great job!!!

Thanks a mill for everything and all your help too you were a great point of contact.
