About SweetBeats

Small State, Big Celebrations

Rhode Island may be the smallest state, but its weddings are anything but small. From waterfront mansions in Newport to chic rooftop receptions in Providence, couples here know how to make a statement. Each city, town, and venue offers its own character — and the right music should bring that personality to life.

Groove Authority thrives in that variety. We’ve played in elegant ballrooms where every detail was planned to perfection, and at relaxed coastal parties where the goal was to keep guests barefoot on the dance floor until closing time. Whatever the setting, we adapt our sound and energy to fit the atmosphere and the couple’s vision.

That’s the beauty of celebrating here: whether it’s a black-tie evening in the city or a seaside reception along Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island weddings bring people together for unforgettable nights — and we make sure the soundtrack rises to the occasion.

Abstract Background

A Wedding Destination That Brings Everyone Together

One of the things couples love about Rhode Island is how easy it is for their guests. Close to Boston, New York, and Connecticut, it’s a central spot where family and friends from across New England — and beyond — can gather for a weekend celebration.

That mix of people brings a lot of energy into the room, and Groove Authority knows how to channel it. We’ve seen grandparents and college friends sharing the same dance floor, co-workers dancing with cousins they just met — all brought together by the music.

No matter where your guests are coming from, we make sure they leave with the same memory: an incredible night of live music they’ll be talking about long after the wedding ends.

Music That Shapes Every Moment

A wedding isn’t just one big party — it’s dozens of smaller moments that flow together into a single experience. The walk down the aisle. The first notes of your first dance. The seamless shift from dinner conversation to a packed dance floor.

Groove Authority focuses on those details. We know when to hold back and when to bring the energy, when to give a moment breathing room and when to take it over the top. That balance is what makes the night feel effortless for you and unforgettable for your guests.

It’s not just about the final encore — it’s about shaping the soundtrack to every step of the evening, so the entire celebration feels perfectly in sync.
