Kerry Sent on 12/08/2025Love Skyline!
Skyline was absolutely incredible—truly the most talented and fun wedding band we’ve ever seen. The dance floor was packed all night long, and countless guests told us they were the best wedding band they’d ever experienced. They played nonstop and brought such amazing energy, keeping the party going from start to finish.
The entire booking process was seamless and stress-free. Ross took the time to walk through our full timeline ahead of the wedding, really listening to what we wanted and making sure everything was perfectly planned. Jessie, the female lead singer, has an absolutely incredible voice and Tom—who performed during our ceremony—was just as impressive. On the day of the wedding, the whole group was easygoing, flexible, and wonderful to work with, especially when our plans had to shift a bit due to rain. We couldn’t recommend Skyline more highly. -

Thank you to Faith and Sean for all of their help throughout the process and thank you to all of the band members for their incredible performance! 10/10!!! -

We hired Code Bleu for our wedding and we are so glad that we did. From the get-go we could tell they were interested in getting to know us and our music preferences and looked for ways to make the wedding flow as smoothly as possible. They were always receptive to calls and texts from us before the wedding and also made time themselves to check in before our wedding. We had their harpist play for our ceremony and it was so beautiful that it brought people to tears. At the reception, they blew our guests away with their incredible singing and music. We went with the 10-piece band option and we are so glad we did. The singers and the musicians are consummate professionals who treated every song like it was the most important song of the night – and our guests could tell. Halfway through the wedding we lost count of the number of people who came up to us to let us know how much they loved this band. Faith did a great job of MC-ing the night and keeping the reception moving through all the different parts (the first dance, speeches, dances with parents, etc.) We’re so thrilled with the collaborative nature and stellar performance from Code Bleu. We recommend them 1000%! Thank you, Code Bleu! -

Saul Sent on 12/22/2025Code Bleu exceeded our expectations
When our daughter looked into hiring a band for her wedding we listened to several band videos online. When we listened to Code Bleu online and especially when my wife and I attended a one-hour live band demonstration performance at a local hotel several things became clear. Code Bleu had excellent musicians and singers. They exuded energy and enthusiasm. They performed a wide variety of music styles equally well. They were competitively priced and a clear value for a ten-piece band.
On the night of the wedding they were even better performing at the venue. The music was outstanding, their energy infectious. The dance floor was filled the entire night with smiling friends and family right up to the last song and an encore dance. Several guests with musical backgrounds and jobs praised the high quality of the musicians and vocalists. The spirit of the evening was perfect. I would recommend Code Bleu to anyone looking for an exciting band to brighten their event.
Happy father of the bride,
Saul

We couldn't have asked for a better band!
Code Bleu played at our wedding in November and let me say - WOW!!! From the start they were so easy to work with - Sean and Marisa really made the process so seamless and were happy to answer any questions we had. We first heard them at a showcase and knew they were the only choice for us! Code Bleu is truly the best wedding band that I’ve ever heard. Our guests also could not stop raving about how good the music was! Code Bleu brought an unbelievable energy and talent, and had people of all ages up and dancing all night. Thank you so much! -

Code Bleu by Skyline Orchestras was hands-down one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. From the very first note, they set the tone: elevated, high-energy, and completely seamless and they never let it drop.
We’ve attended 10 weddings this year, and nothing came close to this. Guests were coming up to us all night asking, “How did you find your band?” The answer is simple, the moment we saw Code Bleu perform at a Skyline showcase, we knew. Faith and Sean are incredible. Their talent, professionalism, and ability to read a room is truly unmatched.
What made them stand out even more was the continuous music. There were no long breaks, no dead air, no moments where the energy dipped, just a packed dance floor from start to finish. Every song choice was perfect, every transition was seamless, and every age group felt included.
They also played our ceremony, and the way they carried the music through the entire day... ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, made everything feel cohesive and effortless. We never once had to think about what was happening next. It all just flowed.
Our wedding felt less like an event and more like an incredible party, and Code Bleu was the reason. If you want a band that delivers nonstop energy, flawless execution, and a night your guests will talk about long after it’s over book Code Bleu. There is no comparison! -

Best band ever
We cannot say enough amazing things about our wedding band — they were truly one of the best decisions we made for our day. From the very first song to the last, they had every single guest on their feet. The energy, the vocals, the musicians… everything was flawless.
They read the room perfectly, kept the dance floor packed all night, and made the entire reception feel like a live concert created just for us. Multiple guests told us it was the best band they’ve ever heard at a wedding — and we couldn’t agree more. -

OH MY GOD. When I tell you there wasn’t a single person sitting down when we had a 250 person wedding, it was insane. I am STILL getting compliments on them weeks later. Ross and the band are AMAZING, they played all night long and were absolutely unbelievable. I wish I could have them play for every wedding we go to LOL. They play a mix of everything, when I spoke to Ross the band leader before the wedding we talked about songs we needed to play and he was totally down for it, gave amazing suggestions and really worked with us, and overall every person had the time of their life :) -

Jaislyn Sent on 12/08/2025Thank you for an incredible night!
If we could give Code Blue more than five stars, we absolutely would! From the very beginning, we knew there was no other option for our wedding band. I attended a wedding about seven years ago where Code Blue performed, and I remember leaving that night saying, “When I get married, this is the band I want—no question.” Fast forward to our wedding planning, and we actually chose our venue based on Code Blue’s availability because we knew the party simply wouldn’t be the same without them. That’s how incredible they are—and they still managed to exceed our expectations.
Working with Sean and Marissa throughout the planning process was such a pleasure. From the first conversation, it was clear they genuinely cared about making the night absolutely perfect. They took the time to really understand the energy, style, and vibe we were looking for, and they struck the perfect balance between catering to our younger guests while also keeping our older guests engaged and entertained.
Their performance was nothing short of spectacular. From the first note to the last dance, they had the crowd on their feet. Every single guest was raving about how amazing the band was—and we couldn’t agree more. Their set list was perfectly curated and the way they engaged with the crowd added so much personality and fun to the night. It felt less like a hired band and more like they were part of the celebration.
They were truly the icing on the cake of our wedding day. It was obvious they were having just as much fun as we were, and their energy was absolutely infectious. Whether it was singing along with our guests, dancing with the crowd, or hitting every musical cue flawlessly, they were worth every single penny—and then some.
We are already talking about having them play at future events because we honestly can’t imagine a celebration without them. If you’re considering Code Blue for your wedding or special event, do not hesitate—they are everything you could want in a live band and more. Professional, passionate, incredibly talented, and so much fun. We cannot recommend them enough! -

Joe Sent on 10/13/2025Rhapsody is the perfect wedding band
Hiring Rhapsody for our daughter's wedding was, without a doubt, one of the best decisions we made! They did not just play music; they created an atmosphere of pure, unforgettable celebration. They truly blew us away!
From the moment we started the planning process, the experience was outstanding. Paul was a pleasure to work with—he made everything easy and stress-free. He was consistently available to communicate with us, offering great suggestions while also being incredibly flexible in incorporating our special requests, including specific dances and songs.
On the night of the wedding, Miguel and the entire band were phenomenal. Miguel is a top-tier entertainer who has an undeniable talent for reading the room. He made the wedding a truly memorable event. They played a remarkably wide variety of music, executing every song to perfection. They had an amazing ability to get everyone up and dancing—from our youngest guests to our oldest relatives—and the dance floor was packed all night long.
If you want a high-energy, exceptionally talented, and professional band that will make your wedding a party no one ever forgets, book Rhapsody. Thank you for making our daughter's day so incredible!

The best wedding band ever
My husband and I got married in October 2024, and Code Bleu was truly the star of the show at our wedding. Even 5 months later, people are still raving about them, and all of our guests seem to know them by name. Code Bleu did a fantastic job reading the crowd and playing songs that everyone loved while playing the 6 songs on our must play list and avoiding the songs on our do-not-play list. They kept the dance floor packed all night long and brought so much talent and energy. I loved that Sean and Faith are a father-daughter duo and that the band members have been playing together for YEARS (i.e. who you see at a showcase is really who is going to play your wedding). Marissa was insanely easy to work and communicate with (I was emailing her asking her to change lyrics or songs a few days before and she was so responsive and able to accommodate all of my requests). Some of my friends even thought we had a 20-piece band (it was really 10 pieces) because the musicians are all so versatile—everyone is multi-talented, either singing and playing an instrument (or multiple!). They even had someone playing during cocktail hour (included in the package). There was never a moment without music, even during breaks, and it was very easy to work with them for coordinating the ceremony musicians as well (we did a violist, cellist, and pianist). I would HIGHLY recommend checking Code Bleu out at one of their monthly showcases so you can hear them for yourself and meet them—their sound really speaks for itself.

Anna Sent on 07/02/2024The best band!
If you are throwing a party of any kind on LI/ NY area, book Skyline!! Ross and the band are the greatest.
First, Ross dealt with my many emails!! But most importantly, they perform absolutely amazing amazing music. Every single guest came up to me to tell me that they were the best band they ever heard at a wedding and everyone was dancing for the entire wedding--which was exactly what we hoped for. The wedding was great and they played a HUGE role in that. Ross also got all the small details right--the shout outs, announcements, etc.
They learned so many songs for us--itwas crazy!! And their covers of "All Your'n" and "Fast as You" were amazing--I think you truly perfected both songs, and my husband Josh even said that Ross did a better Dwight Yokam than Dwight Yokam. The women singers (I can't remember the names) were also incredible. The Amy Winehouse songs were fantastic, and I can't imagine she is easy to cover.
We are definitely going Skyline in the future for different celebrations. They just made the party!! -

Jessica Sent on 06/25/2024Best band ever!!!
We looked at a lot of bands for our wedding day before coming across Code Bleu and knew from the moment they started playing that we wanted them for our wedding. They did an AMAZING job at our wedding this past Sunday. Everyone came up to us during, after and the next morning to let us know how awesome our band was! We had the best time. If you need a band for your wedding, code bleu is where it’s at. Sean is great, he communicates with you about the whole process and answers all your questions. They are super responsive when you have a question or need something. So easy to work with and very professional!
Thanks for an awesome and unforgettable night! -

Abigail Sent on 11/07/2023Code BLEU is the Way to Go!
I LOVE Code Bleu! They are a MUST! They are a family business, where they played at my parents wedding in the 80s and my older sisters, so it was a no-brainer that I had them play at mine. They are super knowledgable so please TRUST their flow. They called me 3 months prior of what vibe I wanted and I told them to play whatever gets EVERYONE on the dance floor. I had variety of age groups at my wedding and they got all those from 80s to 20s out on the dance floor. Faith sang my first dance song and she was AMAZING, not a dry eye in the room when she sings slow-dance songs. Highly recommend if you want to feel like your at a concert and show off your best moves, you gotta hire Code Bleu! -

Samantha Sent on 10/18/2022Hire this band. Do not think twice!
I have no words for how INCREDIBLE this band was.
Firstly, the performance was so great and all of our guests were commenting about how fun and talented they were - which we already knew because their reputation precedes them :) The set list was perfect and the dance floor was full all night.
Secondly, however, I had some drama with the venue. The band (FAITH in particular) quarterbacked us through all of that. She had my back and kept things running smoothly - which was not her job, but she did it anyways.
Third and final, the band worked with my Dad and husband on a special performance by them (they are also musicians!) and it was one of the highlights of the night.
Hire them. Don't even think twice. -

We used code bleu as our band and we loved them and I don’t regret spending the extra money! They were worth every penny. They are actually one of the more affordable bands and they play a wide range of genres (which was a big concern of mine). I am still getting compliments on them! -

Code Bleu band was one of the first and best decisions we made during the wedding planning process! We were very picky about finding the right live band, as it was a huge priority for our wedding to be a big dance party. After we went to a Code Bleu showcase in NYC, we realized that if these talented folks could brighten up a room of tired, sober couples on a Monday night after a long work day and get them to dance and sing along, then they would be a necessity and perfect for our wedding. Working with Sean and his team was extremely easy throughout the entire process, and we trusted them to deliver a good time, especially since we have a very eclectic taste in music and our guests ranged in all ages and cultures. Code Bleu certainly delivered and was able to satisfy every genre and taste to ensure everyone had a blast. So many of our guests commented on the amazing band, and we would not have had as great of a party without Code Bleu! -

Jennifer Sent on 08/04/2019Amazing band!
My brother and sister in law had hired Code Bleu by Skyline Orchestras for their wedding, and I remember being blown away, dancing and thinking, "Wow, I keep forgetting this is band, they sound exactly like the actual song! One day when I get married, I am so hiring them too". Lucky for us, they happened to be available when we booked our wedding on pretty short notice in March of 2019. Not only were they all very nice people and certainly knew how to get the crowd having fun, they sounded incredible and could perform literally anything. They even learned our wedding song for us which was relatively new at the time, and they sounded just like the actual song. Their performance through the whole evening was really so amazing and made our day so magical. We HIGHLY recommend Code Bleu especially, but I know all of the bands in the Skyline family are equally as great. Another family member recently hired another one of their bands for her December 2019 wedding and I cannot wait to go see them perform! -

AMAZING! Look no further... book them EARLY!
Skyline Orchestra provided the music for our wedding on May 12, 2018 at the NYIT DeSeversky Mansion in Old Westbury and they were AMAZING!! Talented, professional, high energy (but can read a crowd perfectly and adjust accordingly), accommodating, and FUN. They were an essential component of our wedding and set the tone perfectly!! Book them EARLY or get their availability before you commit to a date at your venue - yes, they are that amazing. Early on in our planning process, we heard wonderful things about them - they were actually the only band we seriously considered for our wedding. We attended a showcases at their studio in April 2017, and booked them immediately afterwards. Definitely attend a showcase if you can - but rest assured they're all incredible musicians, very professional, and worth every penny. We worked closely with Marisa from start to finish - she was so kind and helpful when it came to all of the many questions we asked. Skyline has an incredibly long and varied list of songs and accommodated the special request for our wedding song graciously (and performed it ahead of time for us at a second showcase we attended... and blew us away with how authentic and heartfelt it was!). Skyline's leader, Ross, scheduled a call with us a few weeks out from our wedding to review our timeline and make some key suggestions that helped our day run very smoothly. He was in touch with our awesome Day-Of-Coordinator, Kelli Teglas, our Event Coordinator at the venue, Rocio Morello along with our Maitre'D, and our photographer, Jon Lemon. We were so impressed with how well Ross knew the venue and the ins and outs of how the evening would go. Additionally, the harpist for our ceremony, Faith, was provided by Skyline, and she was fabulous. We had a special request for Moon River to be played, and she was happy to accommodate. THANK YOU, Skyline Orchestra!! -

“Canes? Where we’re going, we don’t need canes.” – This was the quote of the night after Code Bleu had our 96yo great-aunt dancing her heart out on the dance floor.
A good measure of a band’s quality is the number of people on the dancefloor. For our reception, Code Bleu had everyone – young, old, and everyone in between - dancing all night. They truly excelled at reading the room and adjusting accordingly, playing a good combination of music from “Fireball” to “Will You Be My Girl.” The band members were engaging and often joined guests on the dancefloor to keep things lively. They nailed our first dance song, and made our parents cry during the father-daughter and mother-son dances. We were truly blessed to share our wedding with Sean and the rest of the band! They are truly the best in the business.
Suggestion to anyone booking them – if you can swing it get everyone (the extra vocalist, trumpet, etc). They are truly something special. Sean/Donna if you read this – Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts. -

Tina Sent on 05/30/2015Love, love, love! Absolutely AMAZING. Don’t even consider another band…seriously! We received so many compliments on Code Bleu. “Where did you find them?” “They sound just like the radio.” They played almost every song that we asked for and just went with the overall theme of the songs/artists that we told them we liked. Code Bleu is so awesome! I can’t praise them enough. They sounded incredible! The packed the dance floor all night, and best of all, they looked like they were having a ton of fun too!
Sean was so easy to work with leading up to the wedding, either via email or phone. Donna was just as easy to work with on our big day, always making sure that she had all of the pronunciations and announcements just as we wanted.
My only regret is that I didn’t get a chance to dance as much as I wanted. I really hope that we attend a wedding where Code Bleu is playing because I will dance the night away! Thank you so Sean & Donna for helping make our big day so wonderful!
