Cafe Wha Entertainment

Hands down the best investment we made for our wedding. Cafe Wha? absolutely KILLED it at our wedding and we had SO MUCH FUN thanks to them. So many guests reported to us that this is the best wedding band they've ever seen. The dance floor was packed all night with guests of all ages. My husband and I literally missed eating dessert because we were going too hard on the dance floor. Every single song that came on we would freak out with joy and excitement, singing along. The band involved us in the festivities by coming onto the dancefloor and having my husband and I sing into the microphone, the horns players came down and played right next to me, the main singer had me start a conga line, and then they called us up to boogie onstage with whoever else wanted to come for the last song. Oh and they do an excellent horah! They made us feel so special and listened to our requests in terms of must play and do not play. Every single band member is beyond talented and we want to be friends with them all. WORTH EVERY PENNY! OBSESSED! INCREDIBLE! :)

Once we picked the wedding venue, the next most important item on our list was finding a band. We searched high and low until we came across Sugar Park of Cafe Wha Entertainment. We were provided a sample video and we booked them without ever seeing them live. Weeks later we ended up seeing them in person at Cafe Wha and their talent was undeniable. We knew then that we would have an unbelievable wedding.

Flash forward months later, Sugar Park was even better than we could've imagined. Every single band member is supremely talented. They kept the party alive and the dance floor packed the entire night. We tacked on a DJ from Cafe Wha for the after party and he just kept the night going. To this day, all of our guests say how delicious our cake was and how the band was the best band they've ever seen.

Working with Hap made the process so effortless. He was responsive with emails and was available for calls whenever we needed. If you're looking for phenomenal wedding band, please go with Sugar Park of Cafe Wha entertainment.

We wanted to send a huge THANK YOU to Sugar Park for being such an amazing part of our wedding! You guys were absolutely incredible, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better band to celebrate with.

The dance floor was PACKED the entire night, and we’ve gotten so many compliments about Sugar Park since the wedding. We had multiple people asking us who the band was and saying how great you were, which says it all! You completely brought the energy and made the night so much fun for us and all of our guests.

And thank you for playing one more song at the end of the night. “Home” was seriously the perfect way to close out the dance floor. The fact that you guys changed the lyrics to make them about the two of us made it SO incredibly special and was such a fun surprise. We honestly couldn’t have imagined a better way to end the night, and it’s something we’ll never forget.

We’re so grateful Sugar Park was there to make our wedding so special. We had the absolute best time and will be talking about that dance floor for a very long time!!

Sugar Park was amazing! At the top of the list was how friendly and professional all band members were. Equally at the top of the list was how good they were. Our dance floor was full of energy and excitement all night long! They understood what we wanted and delivered big time! They even let me sit in on my sax. The first dance, the cultural songs we wanted, the dance floor vibes and attention to detail - all perfect! I could not recommend them more! The value we received was much more than the cost.

Words cannot express how grateful we are for the absolute SHOW the Bonafide Crew put on for our wedding. I know we are biased, but it was truly the most fun dancefloor we have ever been on. We could have danced for another 5 hours. They were super receptive to some quirky ideas we had, like a surprise bride and groom performance and a "coin toss" to determine which speeches would go first. They gave us the most energetic hora we could ask for and surprising us with some incredibly meaningful songs after hearing our parents reference them in their speeches. They ended the wedding by having our friends and family circle around us, and it is a moment we will remember forever.

They are not your "average" wedding band. They were funky, thoughtful, unique, and brought so much character to their performance.

We are now groupies- next time we're in NYC we will be cutting a rug wherever they happen to be playing.

Cafe Wha House Band was the star of our wedding, everything went perfectly. The dance floor was packed all night, energy was great, and guests are still raving about them. Their planning process was incredibly smooth. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough

We debated between all of what I would consider to be the top wedding bands in and around New York. We selected The Knockouts after going to watch them perform at The Groove downtown NYC, and it best among the best decisions we made for our wedding. The night was amazing, and we are still receiving messages from friends and family stating that ours was the best wedding they have ever been to, in large part due to the music and entertainment. Kyle, Amanda, and the rest of the band were flawless with so much energy. It made the wedding feel like watching a live show, even during moments when people were sitting eating, all eyes were mesmerized by the band. The booking process and responsiveness during planning was also top notch. Kyle was available to us directly whenever we wanted to chat about song selections or the flow of the evening. They even learned certain songs that were special to us, and it sounded better than the originals. Highly, highly recommend The Knockouts for your wedding or any party for that matter. Your guests will truly be blown away.

We highly, highly recommend the Knockouts! It was one of the best decisions in our wedding planning. Leading up to the event - the Cafe Wha team was so responsive and helpful in making sure every detail was aligned to our vision. Kyle and Amanda were also wonderful taking our preferences in advance to make the music custom to us. And then the wedding itself - it was one of the best wedding dance floors I’ve been a part of! The band was super engaged with us (coming on the dancefloor, having us on stage, etc) while still producing incredible music. The number of compliments re the band we got from our guests was incredible! We strongly recommend Hap, Kyle, Amanda and the whole cafe wha team for your wedding band.

Cafe Wha and the New York Tempo made our wedding a DREAM!! Cannot recommend them enough. They read the room, kept the energy going, and made our wedding a night to remember.

I can not thank Cafe Wha and Sugar Park enough for an AWESOME wedding. They were absolutely incredible and kept the dancefloor packed. From learning our special requests to playing the classics, they went above and beyond. We also received many compliments on the ceremony and cocktail music (especially the song choices). I truly cannot thank Sugar Park enough for creating such a special event. My one wish of the night was that I danced more, but I'm truly not sure if that's even possible. I highly recommend Sugar Park for anyone who wants a full dancefloor and incredible music !!
