2017 Couples’ Choice Award Winner

 

Thank you to all of our recent clients, but especially to those of you who took the time to review us online.  We are excited to say we are once again “Couples’ Choice” from WeddingWire.com.

A peek at some of our recent reviews:

“All we can say is WOW. The evening and night of the wedding, these guys put on an A+ performance. They expertly shifted between quieter background music for when our guests were seated / eating and then during dance sets, and for the rest of the night following dinner, covered all the 80s songs we wanted to hear. and had all our guests up and dancing They did such an excellent job that our guests were raving about the music afterwards. They really helped set a fun mood for the event and we could not have asked for more. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”

“We are SO HAPPY we hired The Engagements to play at our wedding. Their song catalog is fantastic and they are incredible performers–our guests were so impressed that we had a super-legit sax solo at our wedding. They kept the dance floor packed all night and we had a wide range of musical tastes in attendance. There are also great MCs in the band!!! The band also learned a few songs we requested that weren’t on their list and played them with gusto. Hire them!!!”

“Tough to get across in a review just how great The Engagements were at our wedding. Phenomenally tight band, great singers, and awesome awesome set list seguing from sam cooke to the beatles to james brown to 80s michael to bowie to the boss to the clash. Aaron is thoughtful about details and great to work with up front dealing with song list, electricity requirements, etc. and was really flexible coordinating their guys doing the sound for our ceremony, three members of the band playing jazz during cocktails, and their guitarist accompanying a bridesmaid singing a song during the ceremony, in addition to the full band for the party. We had three generations of guests out there on the dance floor really getting into it (and in many cases asking us who the band was and how we found them), and the band seemed to genuinely be really into the songs and to really enjoy playing with each other which really creates great energy for a party.” 

“We had an absolute blast! You guys were amazing and really helped to make the night so special!…We’ve been listening to the set list on repeat ever since and reliving the great memories. It all went by so fast, it’s hard to imagine that you packed all of that in there. … We still keep getting raves from guests of all ages….I have a feeling that you may get a few requests to play at Princeton Reunions… Thank you again so much for helping to make it the best dance party ever!”

“Music was one of the most important decisions we made during planning and we could not have asked for a better band to have at our wedding. We were aiming for a more casual, less structured feeling for the day and the band had no problem rolling with whatever felt natural to the vibe while also making sure we covered all the necessities. We loved how talented each musician was. We never felt like any of it was too cookie-cutter or too wedding-y. From Talking Heads to Motown, The Cure to Tom Waits, they really hit all the marks with the music we love without forcing anything we didn’t. They were always in tune with the energy of the party and made great decisions about what to play next. They also learned a handful of songs just for us. The song they learned for our first dance (which happened organically after dinner) was so beautiful and energetic– my favorite part of the whole day. We are still hearing from our guests about how good our band was! I had enormous blisters for days from dancing so much and I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
