Multiwavelength observations of blazars from optical to very high energy gamma-rays (VHE, E > 100 GeV) provide constraints up to the highest energies for the possible non-thermal broadband emission scenarios. We present VHE gamma-ray observations of several VHE blazars with the VERITAS array of atmospheric-Cherenkov telescopes located in southern Arizona, together with contemporaneous optical and UV observations with MDM and Swift UVOT, and X-ray observations with RXTE PCA and Swift XRT. In addition, contemporaneous high energy (HE, 0.1 GeV < E < 100 GeV) observations of these blazars with Fermi LAT are presented. The broadband SEDs are in general well described by leptonic one-zone jet models, either purely with internal synchrotron photon fields (SSC), or by including external photon fields (EC) as targets for Compton scattering.
