Weddings on the Santa Monica coast
Ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception coverage for oceanfront, hotel, and private-home weddings. We build the set list around your first dance, your family, and the moment you want the floor to fill.

Santa Monica, California
Oceanfront weddings, Westside corporate nights, private parties, and public events — a full live band built for Santa Monica rooms and crowds.
Live music serving Santa Monica
Santa Monica runs on an outdoor, social, coastal energy, and Casanova Jones is built for exactly that room. The band performs live for weddings, corporate activations, private parties, community programs, and festival-style public events across Santa Monica and the Westside. The sound is reggae-rock with ska and alternative edges — a live California beach-town energy that works just as well at a sunset reception as it does in front of a standing crowd. Most Santa Monica events share a few constraints: shared outdoor spaces, sound curfews, tight load-in windows, and a guest list that spans several generations. Casanova Jones plans around them. We shape set length and volume to the venue, scale the production to the space, and build the arc of the night around when you want people seated, when you want them dancing, and when you want the room to peak. Tell us the date, the venue, and the kind of night you are picturing, and we will confirm whether the band is available.
Casanova Jones travels to Santa Monica and the wider Westside of Los Angeles for events at oceanfront venues, hotel ballrooms, rooftop decks, private homes, and outdoor community spaces. The band comes to your chosen venue, with travel, load-in, and production logistics confirmed during booking.
Based in Sherman Oaks, Casanova Jones performs throughout Los Angeles and Southern California, with destination bookings available by request.
The sound
Casanova Jones is a live band, not a backing track or a DJ set. The core sound is reggae-rock with ska horns, punk-influenced drive, and alternative rock songwriting, delivered with a surf-and-coastal California feel. In practical terms that means a set that can sit warm and easy during dinner and then turn into a full-energy dance floor later in the night.

Local event context
Santa Monica event buyers tend to fall into a few clear groups. The first is wedding couples booking oceanfront and hotel venues along Ocean Avenue and the surrounding blocks, usually planning an outdoor ceremony, a cocktail hour with a view, and an indoor or tented reception where the music has to carry the whole back half of the night. The second is corporate and brand teams — technology, media, and agency companies with Westside offices running holiday parties, launch events, client appreciation nights, and off-sites that need live entertainment with genuine presence rather than background sound.
The third group is private hosts: milestone birthdays, anniversaries, graduation parties, and family celebrations in homes and small event spaces across Santa Monica and neighbouring Westside neighbourhoods. The fourth is public and community programming — city and neighbourhood events, market and festival days, and nonprofit fundraisers where a live band is the reason people stay.
Santa Monica's broader coastal entertainment culture, including the Pier area and the beachfront promenades, shapes how audiences here expect live music to feel: outdoors, unpretentious, high energy, and good for a crowd that did not necessarily arrive as music fans. Named locations in this market are context for the kind of events that happen here, not a claim that Casanova Jones has performed at them.
Practically, booking in Santa Monica means planning for parking and load-in restrictions, amplified sound rules at outdoor venues, and a firm end time. We handle those conversations with your venue and planner as part of confirming the date.
