If you are lucky enough to get The Engagements, do not let the opportunity pass you up. They are sui generis and will make your wedding an epic celebration!

They were recommended to us and from the moment we spoke to Aaron, the manager, we knew we had found an exceptional band. Aaron is incredible to work with. He was responsive, helpful, kind, and patient. Each of the band members was extremely kind and cool too.

Their range, sound, energy, and talent will make any wedding a night to remember. This is NOT your average, cookie-cutter wedding band. This is a band that will surprise and delight your guests. We had several wedding guests tell us it was the best wedding band they had ever heard—they were raving for weeks. Six months later, we still get compliments. Even in writing this review I wish I could go back and bust a move to The Engagements tunes!

The Engagements went above and beyond: in addition to playing our requests from their lists, they learned each and every one of the special-request songs that were not on the list. This included a lesser-known 70's tune that has special significance for us and made us practically fly with happiness. We were on cloud nine the entire night because of this marvelous band.

Thank you, Engagements! You made our wedding the party of the decade!

I wish we could give this band 10 stars - 5 just doesn't seem like enough! Hiring the Engagements for our wedding was the best choice we made in all of 2023. My husband saw them play at a friends wedding several years ago, and we are so grateful, honored, and thrilled that we were able to get them for our wedding as well.

These musicians are seriously TOP NOTCH. As a professional musician myself, I wanted to be sure I was hiring a band that actually plays together regularly, not just some random NYC wedding band - which there are A LOT of. Don't be fooled by the comparatively small number of reviews here on Google or elsewhere on the internet. It's because they are a single band that can only be in one place at one time. Most wedding "bands" you see in NYC are actually just a hodgepodge of musicians hired by a contractor who throws people together at the last minute. Seriously, sometimes they are calling singers/instrumentalists the week of the event! Sure, those are all super talented individuals, but if you want your wedding music to sound just as good, if not BETTER than the recordings you like, then you need to hire a band that plays together all the time. Most "wedding bands" do not fall under this category. The Engagements have played together for years, are rhythmically tight, perfectly balanced, fun, energetic, and can do ALL of your favorite tunes from the last 70ish years of recorded music. They are especially perfect if you love music from the 60's, 70's and 80's.

Aaron was an absolute pleasure to work with, from our first call through the end of the wedding night. We hired the 11-piece band for the reception, and Aaron graciously agreed to DJ our Spotify playlist for the ceremony and cocktail hour. (We did blow our budget on the reception music, hence the recorded music for the ceremony and cocktail hour, but it was MORE than worth it!!) They let us select exactly which songs we wanted to be played at the reception. They learned several songs for us, including a Brazilian tune ("País Tropical") for the beginning of the party and even agreed to have one of my Brazilian friends play guitar and sing with them on it. They learned "Don't Look Back in Anger" by Oasis for us as our last song for the night. It was so epic! They ALSO snuck behind my back with my husband and surprised me by letting HIS band play for a couple of songs during the night!

It was a huge party. Everyone was dancing the whole night. My 90-year-old Aunt who had leg surgery this past Spring was up and dancing! Truly, we loved getting married, but the best part of the night was their music and the dance party! I only wish that we could do it again...

Our heartfelt thanks goes out to Aaron and the Engagements. HIRE THEM!!! You won't regret it.

The Engagements blew the roof off our wedding in Brooklyn. They kept the party going all night. They knew exactly what to play and when. Their song catalog is massive and they were also willing to learn additional favorites. Aaron was an absolute pleasure to work with. Leading up to and during the event, he made us feel comfortable and made the whole planning process easy. Many of our guests told us that the Engagements were the best wedding band they’ve ever heard. Can’t recommend highly enough.
