About

On WeddingWire since 2016

Last update: November 2024

Simply put, The Intentions are the most dynamic and exciting Motown and soul party bands you will ever see. For that reason, their performances are one of a kind and create memories that last a lifetime. Because The Intentions perform a repertoire that features the timeless hits of Stevie Wonder, The Jackson 5, The Supremes, Marvin Gaye, Amy Winehouse, and Aretha Franklin, to name a few, they consistently bring together guests of all ages and backgrounds to electrify the dancefloor.

What's more, over the band's 14-year career, it has evolved in several exciting ways that elevate each moment of the celebration. In addition to their jaw-dropping party band, The Intentions offers a vocal ensemble that dazzles during the ceremony, a cocktail band that gets the good times rolling, and a DJ who adds a curated and custom set to put the cherry on top. All told The Intentions bring the complete soundtrack to the biggest and best night of your life!

Although the band does perform internationally, Toronto, Southern Ontario, and Cottage Country are home.
