    If you want your wedding to have dancing, this is your band

    The Hal Prince Band had everyone dancing all night. Jay was phenomenal—a true professional, effortlessly cool, kind, and genuine. He kept the focus on us and made the whole night feel so special.

    The best wedding band

    The Jay Prince Band really made our wedding unforgettable. Their energy was incredible and every song they played was spot on, our guests stayed on the dance floor all night long. So easy to work with beforehand as well. Would definitely recommend!!

    The best wedding band ever!

    The Jay Prince Band is a must have at your wedding! My husband and father are both musicians, so our expectations for finding a good wedding band were pretty high. Jay and every member of the band absolutely exceeded those expectations! They answered all our questions quickly and thoughtfully, worked collaboratively with us on the key songs for the ceremony and reception, and kept the dance floor packed the entire night! Many of our guests commented on how blown away they were by the band’s talent and energy. My family already asked them to play at my sister's wedding next year! We are so lucky to have found the most phenomenal band!!!

    You must hire the jay prince band

    The Jay Prince Band was AMAZING! They kept the excitement going all night long and it really would not have been the same without them. Each member of the band was so incredibly talented. We are so grateful to have chosen them. People have not stopped complementing the music!!!!! If you do anything for your wedding, you MUST hire Jay and his team.

    You need them for your wedding!

    I hired a DJ & MC Steve for my ceremony, cocktail hour and reception and they were terrific! My only requirement for the wedding reception was to play music across the decades, get people dancing and nothing too ratchet and they exceeded my expectations. People were on the dance floor all night long and I was so happy. I received so many compliments on the music throughout the evening. MC Steve was great on the mic and really helped get the party going. I HIGHLY recommend them for a couple who is looking for a dj to provide music.

    A band unlike anyone else!!

    For 17 months Jay and I had been planning my wedding. How many couples are able to walk away from their wedding and truly say the music was beyond incredible and the best music they have ever heared much less at their wedding. Well, we were that couple. There was not one guest at our wedding who was not on the dance floor when the opportunity to dance was presented. Jay created the most spectacular music event for possible the next decade to come. My husband’s main requirement was amazing music and he didn’t get amazing music he got spectacular music that even he was blown away by. Every band member gave us their all and all of their...

    The best band!

    We cannot thank jay prince and band enough for performing at our wedding! So many people commented on how great the band was (a few even saying best wedding band they’ve ever heard). They had everyone dancing all night including us! Can’t recommend them enough.

    Hal Prince - Great Experience

    Ecstatic, overjoyed are just a couple of words to describe how pleased we were with Jay Prince and his band at our wedding. First and foremost, Jay is an absolute pleasure to work with. We shared our playlists with him, met with him, discussed every aspect of what we wanted from ceremony to cocktail hour and party, and he delivered! We had some special songs that we wanted as part of the night that his band didn't have in their normal repertoire. Not only did they play them, Jay created incredible arrangements that rival the originals. Jay's band is a group of total professionals. They put their heart and soul into every song and Jay, as the band leader,...

    Hal Prince for the win!

    Hal Prince is the best out there! We loved having Jay and his band at our wedding in October. Our guests raved about the music! We had quite a mix of people at our reception and almost everyone got out on the dance floor. Jay and his band members pumped everyone up and really helped us create a sense of community at our celebration. We are so pleased with our decision to hire an array of musicians from Hal Prince Music and Entertainment for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. They truly helped us make it the greatest night possible!

    Got everyone on the dance floor!

    Jay and the band were so lively, the music got everyone up and dancing! We were really specific with what we wanted and didn't wanted, which they totally nailed! Also super flexible with additional microphones and setup for our friend who played the ceremony music.

    Loved our wedding band & music!

    We just returned from our honeymoon and we kept talking about how great the wedding was. We've heard from so many guests saying that the music was amazing during all parts of the wedding... how you read the crowd, accommodated by dad's singing requests, and you crushed the guitar solo in Eat It!! Everyone had a blast and it would not have been the same without you!

    Everything you want in a wedding band AND MORE!

    As a fellow musician, I was very particular about the sounds and selections I wanted to hear. Jay knocked it out of the park. From EWF's "September" to Oleta Adams "Get Here" the band was spectacular. Highly Recommended!

    Amazing band!

    Jay & his band played our wedding this past Saturday and they were AMAZING!!! All of our guests told us that they were the best wedding band they had ever heard and the dance floor was packed all night. My husband even sang two songs with them and the band was so cool about it. They were a pleasure to work with and they listened to all of my crazy "don't play" requirements. They also performed our first dance song perfectly. We will be recommending them to all of our friends to use for their weddings in the future. Thank you Jay!!! We had SO much fun and you guys were AWESOME!!!!

    The Crème de la Crème!

    The Hal Prince Orchestra

    When my husband and I were planning our wedding, we knew we wanted to have a live band. We’re both 62 years old, and both lovers of the bands with horn sections from our youth. As we are not young newlyweds, and as my husband was a classical clarinetist, and I a singer in my past, the idea of a DJ just didn’t seem right. We looked on-line at a few different bands through various wedding websites and knew we were looking for an EXTRAORDINARY band for our wedding. I made one phone call to my friend Carolee Goodgold — a fantastic professional singer in her own right who knows a gazillion musicians and...

    Absolutely Incredible!

    When my fiance and I got engaged we both agreed immediately that we wanted to have a band at our wedding. Hal Prince had actually DJ'd my bat mitzvah 14 years prior, so I knew the Jay Prince band would be the perfect choice. Jay, Jill, and Pat were all so wonderful to work with throughout the wedding planning process. The wedding was on a hot and humid day, but the Jay Prince band kept on rockin throughout the night and kept everyone on the dance floor despite all the sweat! Everyone is still raving about the music! I 10000% recommend the Jay Prince Band to anyone looking for a professional, fun, and extremely talented band for your wedding!

    You won't stop raving about the music!

    Jay and his band orchestrated and played the most amazing music for our wedding at our home. What was special about Jay was his enthusiasm and ideas on the flow of the music, the experience, the sounds, the selection of the musicians and songs. We wanted different vibes from the welcome reception to ceremony to dinner and dancing - and he brought it on. The sound was perfect. All the musicians were top notch professionals who played with bands like Chicago and more. They were energetic, friendly and had amazing voices. You won't stop smiling.

    100% met my expectations!

    To me, in planning my wedding music was on my top three MOST important things. And Hal Prince and DJ Steve 100% delivered. DJ Steven matched the type of music genres I wanted for my cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing, even incorporating music from my husband's Haitian culture, to the surprise and pleasure of his family members. DJ Steve also was a great MC, facilitating our announcements, speeches and toasts, and dancing segments. I have had so many guests tell me how great the music was and how they danced the night away. I couldn't have asked for a better company!

    The Best Part of my Wedding

    I feel so lucky and blessed to have had the Hal Prince band under the leadership of Jay Prince play at our wedding. They were the highlight of the evening, and truly the best vendor I hired.

    Music was one of the top, if not the most important element to me and my husband. I am a professional musician as were several of my guests, and even with our very high standards Jay and his band still managed to blow us away!

    The entire wedding guest list was up and dancing the whole evening. My guests and I enjoyed the band so much, that Jay actually had to remind everyone several times to eat their...

    Raia/D'Alessandro Wedding 10/25/18

    WOW! Amazing entertainment. Absolutely impressed us on every level. Music never stopped. Dancing never stopped. We had many professional musician friends in attendance and it was said that this band was the best they had ever heard. I cannot express enough our gratitude, to you and your colleagues, for enhancing our wedding experience in the way you all did. You over exceed our expectations of 'the band experience'. BLOWN AWAY is putting it mildly. You YouTube videos do not do the experience justice. You are far better, in person, than what we had seen. Your attention to detail was spot on. From set up to the sound guy we were impressed. And your singers??!! OMG what a voice! She...
