I attended private holiday party where Central Park performed, and they were absolutely phenomenal! From the very first song, they brought nonstop energy and seamlessly blended festive holiday favorites with dance-floor hits that kept everyone moving all night long. The band was always interacting with the crowd which made the whole night a nonstop celebration. If you're looking for a band for your event that delivers a next-level experience while still being polished, fun, and professional, Central Park is it. Absolute perfection!! -

Andrew and the whole band were absolutely incredible! From their showcase to get a sneak peak of their work before booking them to their communication during the planning stage, they exceeded our expectations. They were great to work with, answering all our questions leading up to the wedding and discussing plans to make the night run smoothly.
And as great as they were to work with they are even better the day of. The keyboardist during our ceremony and cocktail hour were exceptional and Andrew’s MCing was top notch. During our reception, these guys kept the dance floor rocking all night. They fed off the energy of the crowd and kept it going all night so there was never a dull moment. They even came out into the dance floor to interact with everyone! We had people coming up to us all night telling us how good the band was and asking how we found them. Can’t recommend them enough for anyone looking for a wedding band! -

We had Central Park play at our wedding, and we could not have dreamed of a better band! With four incredible vocalists, plus a phenomenal group of musicians, every single member of the band was outstanding. Their talent is undeniable, but what really set them apart was how perfectly they read the crowd—every song choice kept the energy high and the dance floor full all night long.
Beyond the music, they made us feel so special on our wedding day. They created an atmosphere that was fun, personal, and unforgettable, and our guests are still raving about them. If you’re looking for a band that will elevate your wedding to the next level, Central Park is it. Absolutely flawless from start to finish! -

This isn't just your "average" wedding band; Central park has something special.
You get 4 incredible vocalists that can do it all, and epic instrumentalists to match. From the Hora, to the parent dances and beyond, these guys DELIVERED!
Andrew, the band leader, was super responsive to all my questions and had great energy throughout the entire process. He knows how to get the party going and make the bride and groom feel special.
The only time the dance floor wasn’t packed was when people were eating! Even my elderly family members got up to dance the night away.
They are willing to learn songs that aren't already in their repertoire, which really meant a lot to us, since there were a few tunes that we requested that brought our personality to the big day.
You can stop your live band search now, because this band is all you need!

I truly could not have picked a better band! I had people running up to me on the dancefloor all night asking who they were and how I found them! Andrew and his team were so kind and easy to work with throughout the entire booking and planning process. They made the night run so smoothly and I don't think a single person was off the dancefloor from beginning to end - did people even eat cake? Also, the band offered to learn our special dance songs to play live, including our first dance and dances with our parents - it really added such a special touch. I would highly highly recommend to anyone getting married or having an event! -

Gabby Sent on 05/11/2024Good Luck Finding a Better Band
Central Park was by far the best band my wife and I could have asked for to play at our wedding. We went to see multiple bands before our wedding and Central Park was the only band that came up to us personally to make an effort to get to know us and get an idea of what we were expecting on our wedding day. We met with Andrew a few weeks before our wedding to go over introductions for our bridal party, songs we wanted played, and different versions of songs we were hoping they could play for us. They played Take my Breath Away for our first dance and an upbeat version of Kiss the Girl from the Little Mermaid as our entrance song and they delivered perfectly on both of those. Everything on our wedding day was exactly what we asked for and was so much better than we expecting (and we were expecting nothing short of amazing to begin with after hearing them)! We had countless people tell us after our wedding how awesome the band was and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking for top tier live entertainment! -

Gabby Sent on 12/27/2023Best band ever
The main thing my husband and I focused on for our wedding was making sure we found a good band. Having our wedding be the most epic party of our lives was goal #1 and we could NOT be happier that we went with Central Park the Band. They were the absolute BEST and I could not say enough positive things about them. We had such an easy and pleasant experience from the get-go with Central Park. They went above and beyond to find a date and time for us to see a showcase, and once we did that, we immediately knew that they were the band for us. As the bride, I was a little particular with some things that I wanted, and Andrew, the band leader, was so accommodating and made me feel so at ease as we planned. I trusted them completely to set the vibe for the night, and they did not disappoint! Throughout the entire night of our wedding, they kept the party going and people on the dance floor. Since the wedding, we have received compliments from so many of our guests who said the band was one of the best wedding bands they have ever heard – and we completely agree! I am unbelievably grateful that we had Central Park the Band as the soundtrack to the best night of our lives. They made it completely unforgettable, and I could not thank them enough. I would highly recommend them to anyone who’s looking for a talented, fun, and professional band to create the perfect sound for their event! -

Karly Sent on 07/17/2023TLDR: We want an encore!
Central Park the Band was recommended to us by several people. From what we had heard, they are the #1 band. What we learned was that those people were right! We worked with Frank initially during the booking process. As someone with a famous name, Karly Simon, Frank communicated creatively by incorporating Carly Simon's song titles into his messages. COVID restrictions slightly impacted our wedding planning process, but we were able to see Central Park in action before making our decision. DO IT. GO SEE THEM IN PERSON! TOTALLY WORTH IT! Their sound and energy are top-notch the whole time. You can’t help but find yourself singing and dancing to EVERY song! During the last few weeks leading up to the wedding, we worked with Andrew on the logistics. He was so helpful with recommendations and accommodations based on what we hoped for in our event. On our wedding day, they really kept our party movin’ and groovin’. It’s been two months since our wedding, and our guests are still gushing about how great the band was that night. We even heard that someone who attended our wedding booked Central Park for their wedding! Hiring Central Park the Band is the way to go; you won’t be disappointed. We are so grateful for Central Park the Band and can’t wait to hear/see them again soon! -

Do not even consider another band!
I have been to a ton of weddings with bands, and Andrew and the gang at Central Park are THE BEST of the best. Seriously, don’t waste your time looking for anyone else. My sister had hired them for her 2021 wedding and when we danced the night away then, we knew that we just had to have them when our 2023 wedding came too. And honestly, I think they got even better!
My biggest fear for my wedding was that people wouldn’t dance and let me tell you, EVERYONE was dancing, from start to finish, the entire night. I didn’t provide “must have songs” or “do not play” lists, I just trusted Andrew and his team and they delivered. The timing on how they did everything was unique and truly set the tone for the night. Out of all the things to get complimented on about your wedding from your guests, “the band was amazing!” was the #1 thing our guests gave us feedback on. Not to mention that they were just super accommodating to our needs too. At our venue rehearsal the night before a question was brought up about av/audio for our officiant at our outdoor ceremony - unbeknownst to me our venue apparently didn’t provide it and one quick text to Andrew at 8pm that night and he had a microphone and all of the ceremony audio covered for us the next day for the wedding, no questions asked. They played our cocktail hour too and everyone enjoyed themselves. I cannot recommend Central Park the band enough! -

Christine Sent on 05/10/2023Best Band Ever!!
My sister found Central Park 10 years ago for her wedding and we have used them for so many family weddings, parties, and events in between because they are simply the best!! We just used them for our wedding in Philadelphia and couldn't be happier. They are always so friendly and easy to work with from the moment you book them all the way through to the events end. And obviously the most important they are an amazing band with so much energy during your events!!! Every single event we have ever used them for people have come up to us and told us they were the best band ever! Can't recommend them enough and I think our 10 year history with them goes to show how incredible they are! -

Mary Sent on 01/03/2022Excellent Band Kept the Party Going
Central Park The Band was great from our ceremony through the end of the reception. We had 2 musicians for the ceremony, then the full band for our reception. They are a very talented group of musicians, and did an excellent job of facilitating things like dances and speeches, in addition to reading the crowd and playing music that kept everyone dancing through the end of the night.
