Amazing to work with and even more amazing to listen to!!

We first encountered the Ring of Music Band and Orchestra at a wedding and were so impressed that we knew immediately they would be our top choice for our own big day. They truly exceeded our expectations in every way.

Working with the Ring of Music Band and Orchestra was an absolute pleasure. Their performance was nothing short of spectacular, and the dance floor was packed all night long. Our main contact, Matt, played a crucial role in making our day seamless. His exceptional communication, preparation, and organization ensured that everything went off without a hitch. Matt was always several steps ahead, helping us navigate every detail with ease.

Additionally, Matt and his team were fantastic at MC-ing the event. We received numerous compliments on how smoothly they moved the day along and made announcements. Their coordination with our other vendors was flawless, and their professionalism was truly commendable.

If we ever need a band again, the Ring of Music Band and Orchestra would be our first choice without a doubt. We can not recommend Ring of Music enough!!

Amazing jams

My family and fiancé were set on having a live band. I was a bit more skeptical but went along. We had never seen Ring of Music at another wedding but chose them based on our conversation with Matt and their wide range of music options (particularly the Grateful Dead section). I can now admit it was the best decision we made. We had started off with just a 7 piece and upgraded to 11. Truly worth every penny. They had the dance floor packed the whole time even the DJ portions. They truly jammed out and played music for everyone to dance to. We didn’t want just wedding music but music that everyone loved. There was one point where the trumpet and fiddle were having a jam off. We had multiple guests tell us it was the best wedding band they’ve seen. We cannot recommend Ring of Music enough. They played every minute and were great to work with.

Best Wedding Band Ever!!

Matt and the musicians of Ring of Music are top notch and wonderful to work with! One of my requests of the band was to let me join them on stage and play guitar with the them for a few songs- they had no issues with this request, let me pick which songs I wanted to play, and were extremely accommodating with various logistics. The band played every song we wanted them to play and then some (even learning a few new songs just for our wedding)!

The set and the band exceeded our expectations! The band sounded great (truly great musicians), the sound was fantastic, and the setlist was perfect! My wife and I never left the dance floor because song after song we wanted to dance and sing along. We had additional horn players and a violin which added an awesome touch to the sound. We continue to receive multiple compliments from our friends and family (old and young guests) about how great the band was!

It truly felt like Matt and the band went above and beyond and my wife and I cannot thank Ring of Music enough for making the live music our favorite part of our wedding reception. We wish we could get married again just so we can have Ring of Music play again!

Organized, wonderful, fun, romantic, sweet and an all around good time! All you have to do is talk to Matt and you will know right away you will be well taken care of. Then when you listen to the orchestra you will know they are for you!

We had such a pleasure working with the Matt Stedman Band, we honestly can't recommend them enough! Not only do they have a fantastic sound but they are prompt, professional and most of all as a fellow vendor, easy to work with. We don't get to work with bands nearly enough and when we do they always make the evening extremely memorable for the couple, which I know the Matt Stedman Band did for ours!

We love having the Matt Stedman Band at our venue! They are so lively and so much fun to listen to! Truly great vocals and music. They are always extremely nice to work with, very responsive, flexible, and keep in close touch with us the night of the wedding to make sure things stay on time. They also know how to get a group on the dance floor and keep them there all night long. Highly recommend!
