We just had Center Stage play our wedding 2 weeks ago... they were AMAZING!!! We listened to a lot of bands online before finding Center Stage and they had a sound that just popped. Not only are they extremely talented musicians, but they are extremely professional and easy going. Frank, the band leader, was just outstanding to work with. Our venue was a little tricky because they had to move locations a couple of times during the course of the event, but they did so seamlessly. They played a good mix of classic Motown, rock and pop songs and had everyone dancing all night. Essentially they were a huge treat for everyone. They were able to accommodate songs we wanted for our first dance and processional song and played a mean Hava Nagila (great job!!). Some of our guests were also musicians and they were more then happy to let them play with them- such a special gesture. All in all we were extremely satisfied with Center Stage. We had a blast with them and they really rocked out!!!

Highly recommended. Provided music for ceremony and reception at my daughter's wedding. Provided a long list of songs to choose from. Kept the dance floor full the whole time they were playing.

Frank Bonanno and Center Stage are an absolute pleasure to work with, have a killer sound that will get people dancing, and are just FUN.

Frank is a consummate professional; from my first contact with him he was straightforward, flexible, and always reliable. He is also incredibly accommodating and easy to work with. He made me a great deal when I booked with him for my wedding ceremony in addition to the reception, and he and his band learned several new songs for my event (every one that I asked about).

The experienced and talented musicians of Center Stage also know how to get the party started. One of my great fears for our wedding (a common one, I know) is that the dance floor would be empty and awkward. We've all seen it happen. My fears were entirely unfounded, as the dance floor was busy the ENTIRE night. The music was a fun mix that appealed to a wide audience, and the band did a fantastic job of reading the crowd.

My new husband and I could not be happier that we booked with Frank and Center Stage, and the next time I need a band, he will definitely be my first call.

I have enjoyed Center Stage in a number of venues and have had the greatest time at each! This band is second to none in talent and professionalism! Perhaps the most memorable time was a private party at my home. The band tailored the music to the crowd and occasion, had everyone up dancing, and added so much to the special day! I know I will use Center Stage again. You can't do better than this band for fabulous, live music.

We have used this band twice in the past couple of years for major events: a wedding and then a college reunion party (with over 450 attendees). Simply put, there is no other band we will use. They provided a complete package both times: cocktail music, dinner background music and then the best dance music we have ever been privileged to dance to. They do all styles, and do it authentically with vocals that make you think you are listening to the original artists and a music-making ability second to none. Folks just rush to the dance floor and don't leave. Besides having enormous talent, they are also the nicest folks to deal with and beyond professional and courteous in how they treat people.

From the ceremony, through dinner, and finally to the dance floor, Center Stage was nothing short of exemplary. They were able to take our initial thoughts and suggestions, help us build and expand upon them, and create the musical background to a day that we will never forget. Thank you all so much for your dedication and professionalism!

Center Stage is simply AWESOME. They were very professional and they really knew how to work the crowd. It was the best New Year's Eve Party - everyone didn't stop dancing the ENTIRE night! I would highly recommend this band to anyone looking for an amazing band for any event!

For those of you making wedding plans, I recommend you go no further…entrusting Center Stage wedding band for your special day will be the best decision you ever made. Me and my family have enjoyed several functions where Center Stage as played. They're terrific, and they keep the crowd on the floor moving and grooving! Best of all, they can customize your song list, making your special day unique and setting it apart from the everyday wedding. We've dealt with Frank Bonanno who always exceeded our expectations both in planning and execution. He is wonderful to work with, extremely reliable and I think you'll be delighted with your decision if you chose to hire Center Stage.

These guys are amazing. It's rare today to find musicians of this caliber. We got married in June, 2012 and people are still talking about how great Center Stage was. The music was so alive and soulful. This is something we couldn't have experienced with a DJ. Have no worries about hiring Center Stage. They know what they're doing and you won't ever forget it.

We, and all of our guests, loved Center Stage. They were enormously helpful planning the music, and all the logistics, with us and made the entertainment elegant, fun and smooth for everyone. A big bouquet to this exceptional band. We recommend them highly and hope to have them again.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
