The Plus Ones NYC were an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, Gerald’s communication was friendly, responsive, and professional. He is clearly passionate about his craft and dedicated to making our day special. The trio was incredibly talented and experienced, with Gerald leading the ceremony music and the trio keeping our reception going all night. Everyone was complimenting their performance - they truly completed the vibe we were going for and had an amazing song list that they were even willing to expand on for us. We couldn't have asked for a better band to make our wedding day feel like a movie. Highly recommend The Plus Ones NYC!

Awarded Best of Zola
Wow! DJ Lou exceeded our expectations! When it came to the reception we didn't have to do a thing but the preparation came months before that. We had an initial planning meeting, he set us up with our own timeline (an app that he created!), we had a follow-up meeting and then a week-of meeting! We felt so ready when the day came but were still so surprised about how much DJ Lou did for us. He was checking to see if we were okay, pulling us away to make sure we were eating, working with our other vendors so seamlessly- our ceremony musicians, our officiant, our family band, and our photographer! It made the reception a hit among all our guests! We can't recommend him enough!

  • Production company
  • Starts at $3,000

Awarded Best of Zola
Naked Soul (led by Tony and Tom Perrone) absolutely ROCKED at our wedding! Tons of friends and family told us during and afterwards that they were the best wedding band they'd seen, and we might be biased, but we agree wholeheartedly. They were also pretty great to work with, and as a result music was one of the least stressful parts of planning and one of the best memories of the event. The planning process was extremely professional — we had a few calls with Tony to talk over the vibe we were going for in the ceremony, cocktail hour, and dance floor. They sent over a list of a couple hundred songs in their repertoire and we picked 20 or so to anchor their idea of what we were looking for and selected our processionals, recessional, first dance, and parent-child dances. Our first dance was not on their list but they learned it and killed it in their performance. Our venue was a little non-traditional (relatively small room for the dance floorband) and we weren't sure that a full band was going to work in the space, but Tony put us at ease and pulled it off amazingly. One of the points Tony made in the run-up was that the songs we were picking were recommendations, not a set list. The band was going to follow the vibe and play more of whatever style was working with the crowd. This made it so much easier for us to pick songs, and in the end they played a lot of stuff that wasn't in our pics but went over better than we could have dreamed. I never thought I'd say that the best songs at my wedding were from the Backstreet Boys, Spice Girls, and Black Eyed Peas. They knew their audience and the place went wild when they played Everybody (Backstreet's Back). The range of songs that a 10-piece band with a full array of vocalists can pull off is wild. Anyway, 10/10, would book again. If you're in the New York area and looking for a party we can't recommend Perrone Bros/Naked Soul highly enough. Bonus, these pics were taken by Tony and posted to their Instagram after the event.

We can't thank Justin and Skylark Music enough for creating the perfect soundtrack for our wedding, and turning our vision into a magical day! From the beginning, it was an absolute joy to work with Justin. He is very communicative, organized and so easy to collaborate with during the planning process. On the wedding day, he went above and beyond, even helping with small but important details like pushing rainwater off the tent during the ceremony (we had several rain storms throughout our wedding). Despite the weather, our guests couldn't stop raving about the music, and it was clear they had a blast on the dance floor. The day was truly unforgettable, and we are so grateful for Justin and Skylark Music!

Led by singer, songwriter, and recording artist Melody Rodriguez, the band can be heard in numerous styles such as Latin Pop, Boy Bands and 90’s nostalgia, while authentically performing standards and classics with powerhouse vocals.

Awarded Best of Zola
Choosing Just the Melody Band was hands down the best decision we made for the entire wedding! Melody and Edvin (and the whole band!) are so talented, not to mention so versatile! My fiance and his family are from Mexico and my family is from the US, so we wanted to be able to dance to US wedding classics and early 2000s throwbacks as well as Latin pop, Shakira, and lots of traditional Mexican music and cumbia! We went into our vendor search having no expectation that we’d find a band that could do ALL of that — but we lucked out finding Just the Melody! They can do it all, and SO well! Our wedding guests were on the dance floor until 1am! They also learned our first dance song for us and performed it almost better than the original :) Above all, they were so kind and accommodating and fun to work with and they cared so much about making sure the evening went exactly how we wanted it to go. We cannot recommend this incredible band enough

So thankful I went with Jimmy Dee for my wedding. We just don’t have enough good things to say about them! From their App that allowed me to add and remove song options and make specific notes so anything I wanted in a very specific way was easy and clear. After that, our team took creative control and when I tell you my guests did not sit down for even a second!! Dinner was being served and they had to make an announcement for everyone to sit. So glad we went with them and they truly made our wedding the BEST NIGHT EVER!

I am over the moon with how absolutely perfect things were with DJ Zach! I have very particular music tastes and knew I didn't want your "typical" wedding music (though I'm sure Zach could do a great job with that too); after vibing with Zach on the phone and connecting over our shared love of music, I felt confident he could deliver a wedding I could be personally proud of. And boy, did he deliver! We had an absolutely packed dance floor all night. He did such a fantastic job taking the cue from my song selections and finding the beautiful middle ground between music lover and crowd pleaser. I'm so thrilled Zach was my partner-in-music and helped create my dream wedding!

One thing they love about playing music for weddings is the variety that is required of them. Every gig is different and they all happen on one of the happiest days of the clients' lives!

We are so thrilled that we found the Met Players for our wedding. They were recommended to me by a friend of mine in the wedding music industry, and we are very, very satisfied with our decision to work with them. We contacted and booked the Met Players shortly before the pandemic reached the east coast - We are so thankful for their generosity and flexibility during the postponement and rescheduling process, and for their commitment to safety. We worked with Erin and Mandy in the planning stages, and they were both so kind and professional - truly above and beyond. We trusted them completely with the details and knew we were in very good hands. The Met Players offer a fantastic value. Our band learned a bunch of new songs for us, they were able to be flexible with our varying musical needs throughout the event, and they delivered both gorgeous music and stellar management (big shoutout to Jaclyn, our day-of coordinator!). We love music (and love to dance), and this amazing band kept the party going for four beautiful hours. Our guests loved them, we loved them, and I hope to find myself at a Met Players wedding again soon!
