The Shine Band was worth every penny and then some. For a Mexican-American wedding that had people from all over they had EVERYONE on the dance floor throughout the night. I have no idea how they did it for as long as they did but it was fantastic.
They were fun, energetic, talented and all around great performers. They had a great command of English and Spanish songs. We had a spot during the reception that I was afraid was no one was going to get back on the dance floor. The emcees not only

Pros: quality, entertainment, professional, but above all quality!!!!
Cons: Nothing!!
I had my wedding in March 2014 at Xcaret Park (absolutely amazing! would recommend this venue to any bride!) I am mexican and my now husband is english so I was very nervous about this topic. I was worried that my mexican side would get bored if we had too much international music that they didnt know what was going on, whilst the foreigners might get intimidated if they heard too much latin stuff going on they might get shy ;))

The manager jessy replies to emails super quickly and answers all your questions comprehensively, which is a big bonus. i had been starting to think that massive delays were just par for the course in mexico, but not with these guys. I cant think of a single negative, and there are

Pros: Everything included, band, dj, anamator, party gifts
Cons: Nothing!
My husband and I searched far and wide to find the greatest band in Cancun. I am American and my husband is Mexican. Because of this, the wedding guests had quite a large gap in musical tastes, not to mention the range of ages. The Shine band seriously covers everything and has a voice for everything. No strange accent singing Elvis with this band.
A really great thing about this band is their manager, Jessie. She really takes care of everything for you. You don't have to worry a
