    Highlight of the night!

    My husband was in charge of securing a band for our wedding. I pretended to be very laid back about it, but deep down, I was STRESSED. After all, the music can really make or break a party. After phone calls with multiple companies, he decided to go with the Metropolitan Players…and I am so glad I trusted him with this! The whole team was very responsive and patiently walked us through everything leading up to our wedding day. They had a huge repertoire of music that kept everyone on the dance floor all night long, and the personal songs they learned for us sounded AMAZING. We had an 8 piece band and were a little nervous about it being too loud, but our day-of coordinator (shout out to Drew) made sure the volume level was perfect for our sensitive ears! We received so many compliments, both during and after our wedding, about how great the band was. Everything was seamlessly organized on our day without us having to lift a finger - we felt like true guests of honor at our wedding. We can’t recommend the Met Players enough!

    Best Wedding Band Ever

    The Met Players created an UNBELIEVABLE atmosphere for our environment. If we could leave 10 stars, we would. From the start of the relationship to the end of our wedding, they were professional, available, flexible, and all-around amazing. They worked with us to carefully create a playlist and energy we wanted: They learned new songs and performed them perfectly. They played all the songs we requested. And they totally nailed the vibe that we were going for. Every time someone has talked about our wedding, they have mentioned the Met Players. They are the best wedding band out there.

    Highly recommend!

    My husband and I had the absolute pleasure of having The Metropolitan Players perform at our wedding. They were such a dream to work with, and every single guest raved about how the Met Players were the best band they’ve ever heard at a wedding. Not a single person left the dance floor all night! We couldn’t recommend them more!

    Fantastic band!

    The Met Players were amazing! We got married on 1/27/24 and we could not have been happier! Elizabeth ensured we were well taken care of and the band knew all the songs
    And how to engage with the crowd! It was absolutely perfect!!

    One of the best vendors

    The Metropolitan Players were honestly one of our favorite vendors to work with for our wedding!! They were so incredibly professional and personable from day one. They even sent us a handwritten note after we booked them. Elizabeth, our coordinator, was with us every step of the way to help us make sure we had the best night of our lives. They were accommodating, flexible, and SO TALENTED!! My husband and I had so many people come up to us throughout the night to tell us how AWESOME our band was! Despite having a snowstorm on our wedding day, they were willing to work with us to make our day incredible. The Met Players had everyone up and dancing, and we are SO thankful we chose them for our special day!

    Amazing Wedding Band!

    We absolutely loved having the Metropolitan Players play at our New Years Eve wedding! From the very start they were easy to work with and highly communicative about the process. They checked in frequently throughout and were key in helping to create a great timeline and set list. They were able to learn songs that were most important to us and played them brilliantly. Most importantly, they had the dance floor rocking all night long! Their 90's pop medley may have been the best song I heard all year. We would highly recommend working with them!!

    Incredibly talented and fun band!

    We are so happy we hired the Met Players! From the moment we first emailed them, we could sense their excitement for us and passion for what they do. They were incredibly communicative over email and very organized in terms of planning for our wedding day. We had a lot of specific requests and they accommodated every single one flawlessly (for example, we asked for some piano instrumental versions of Lord of the Rings songs to play before the ceremony and gave very specific timing instructions for songs to walk down the aisle to).

    The band completely understood the vibe we were going for which was a fun and lively dance floor, and the dance floor was truly packed all night. They helped us have an amazing hora, kept timelines on track by announcing speeches and parent dances, and ended their set with a great performance of Don't Stop Believin.

    I highly recommend the Met Players for a band that's truly excited, fun, and talented! We hadn't seen them live before we booked, but based on reviews and word of mouth we felt comfortable booking anyway and from the first email we got from our event coordinator I knew we made the right choice. We loved them, and so did our guests because we got many, many compliments!

    Amazing band! Everyone was so talented

    We had such a great experience with the Metropolitan Players. Our guests are still talking about how great our band was! They had everyone up and dancing for most of the night, and learned favorites like Barbie Girl, Dancing On My Own, and Danza Kuduro just for us. We weren't even sure if Danza Kuduro was a reasonable request - the singer would have to speak Spanish - but they totally delivered. So much fun. The list of songs they already know is really extensive and we loved that they were willing to learn a bunch of songs for us. Some of the bands we looked at capped custom requests at 2 songs, maybe 3. The Met Players didn't set a cap, though I'm sure there is one at some point. We didn't reach a limit and we got everything we hoped for. Also, Barbie Girl was a late add - the Barbie movie blew up and we thought it would be fun to add it to the mix. They learned it 2 weeks before the wedding. I wouldn't necessarily suggest putting requests in on such short notice, of course. I'm sure they appreciate having more time :) Their communication in the planning process was also awesome. Very thorough, friendly, and responsive.

    Best band out there hands down

    There is absolutely NO better band than the Metropolitan Players. In fact, just look no further. My sister-in-law is a professional singer and found this band (she has very high expectations for what she was looking for). When I got married a year later, there was no question that we would be using them for our wedding we well. The band is so so good and the organization leading up to the big day is exceptional. They really strive to ensure they get the music right based on your interests. We ended up getting a 12 piece band and two violinists and celloists for the ceremony. The music during the ceremony was magical, and the music during the reception had everyone on the dance floor. I can't speak any more highly of them, and how fantastic they are! Thank you again for rocking our wedding!

    Dancing all night long

    I am ecstatic to share my experience working with The Metropolitan Players. Having witnessed their riveting performances at several weddings before, I was already certain of their talent. However, their performance and incredible professionalism during our own wedding exceeded even my highest expectations. Engaging with The Met Players as vendors was an absolute delight. Their extreme organization, quick responses, and meticulous attention to detail left no room for doubt or concern. They were not merely another vendor; they were collaborative partners who were invested in making our wedding day a resounding success.

    One thing that stood out was their dedication to understanding and executing our specific requests. Their attention to detail was remarkable and assured us that our event was as important to them as it was to us. Working with them was a breeze, a stress-free experience that I genuinely appreciated amidst the hustle and bustle of wedding planning. When it came to the big day, The Met Players truly came alive. They absolutely crushed it, lighting up our wedding with their infectious energy and exceptional sound. Their performance was seamless, fun, and so incredibly engaging that they had all our guests on the dance floor in no time. The energy and joy they injected into the crowd were palpable and truly set the mood for a celebration we will always remember.

    The Met Players were a dream to work with. Their level of professionalism, combined with their musical prowess and their undeniable passion for what they do, made our day extra special. If you're looking for a band that will deliver an unforgettable performance and contribute to making your wedding day flawless, I wholeheartedly recommend The Met Players. They are undoubtedly worth every penny, and I guarantee they will make your day just as special as they made ours.

    The wedding band of our dreams!

    I am absolutely blown away by The Metropolitan Players. From the very beginning, my husband and I felt cared for, appreciated, and genuinely excited about the process. The coordinator that we were assigned, Mandy, was also our sound engineer and all-around go-to person on the day of the wedding. Mandy is friendly, professional, and patient. We had so many questions for her to make sure everything would go smoothly, and all of our requests were met with care. As a musician myself, the seamless logistics of the day (especially when it comes to sound), were very important to me. Every step of the way, Mandy answered e-mails, questions, hopped on Zoom calls with us. We were truly in the best hands and we felt like everything would be taken care of on the day-of. When there are a million things going on on the day of your wedding, you just have to put your faith and trust in the vendors. And I felt more than comfortable doing this with The Metropolitan Players.

    Now, on to the band. Oh... my... GOODNESS, they totally blew our socks off! Our setup included everything - the four vocalists, the horns, drums, bass, keyboards, etc. The band knocked it out of the park. They satisfied all of our requests and exceeded our expectations, both musically and energetically. Singers and instrumentalists were coming out into the audience. Arrangements were tight. Singing was powerful and on-point. They made our guests, and us, feel like rockstars. Our guests made sure to let us know afterwards that the band was one of the best features of the night. We went for a more vintage vibe with a lot of funk, soul, and R&B. The Metropolitan Players DELIVERED.

    If you are looking to have live music at your wedding, it certainly enhances the experience and makes it more than memorable. And The Metropolitan Players is your go-to band for your wedding, given their professionalism, high level of musicianship, efficiency, and just overall kindness and friendliness. Who doesn't want to work with people who are upbeat and pleasant? I would highly recommend this band to any and all of my friends getting married.

    So full of gratitude for The Metropolitan Players for playing such an important role in our special day. I could not be happier with the experience and I honestly wish I could relive it all over again.

    Thank you, Metropolitan Players! You all ROCK!

    Best wedding band ever

    We couldn't have asked for a better band!!! They sounded AMAZING and were SO MUCH FUN! All of our guests absolutely loved them and so did we. The Couple Care Manager, Mandy, and the rest of the team were also helpful when working through song choices and figuring out our overall vibe for ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. They also perfectly shortened our first dance and our parent dances without requiring any help from us. We definitely recommend Metropolitan Players!!

    Metropolitan Players's reply:

    Hi Allie! The band had so much fun learning all of your special dances and figuring out the perfect vibe for your wedding! It was really rewarding to see how much your guests enjoyed the day! You two were so great to work with and I’m beyond grateful that the Met Players were able to be a part of your amazing wedding!

    Excellent Experience!

    The entire team did a GREAT job at our son's wedding in September. Everyone had a wonderful time, the dance floor was always humming. The band had great energy and seemed to be having as much fun as we were. On a personal note, the song I selected to dance with my son, was a rather obscure John Denver/ Mary Travers song "For Baby." Both the Denver and Travers versions are a little fast and not exactly danceable. I was a little worried about that, but for sentimental reasons that had to be "the song." My worries were for naught. The Metropolitan Players performed a beautiful version with a very danceable tempo. I so appreciated the care they took to help create a moment I will treasure always.

    Metropolitan Players's reply:

    Hi Jane! Thank you so much for this review, we love hearing from family members! “For Baby” was such a beautiful dance and the band was happy to make that moment everything you were dreaming of! Thank you again for sharing your son’s wedding day with the Met Players!

    Best Wedding Band EVER!

    We couldn't have asked for a better band to play at our wedding. The Metropolitan Players were so easy and wonderful to work with. Mandy and Siobhan always answered in a timely manner and made sure everything was coordinated so that the night went smoothly. The band was so much fun, had the crowd dancing all night, and even learned new songs just for us! We highly highly recommend the Metropolitan Players and hope to work with them again in the future!

    Metropolitan Players's reply:

    Thank you so much for your review, Michaela!!
    One of our favorite things is being able to keep every guest on that dance floor all night so it’s great to hear that we did just that! The band loved learning all of your special requests and we’re so proud we were able to give you such a perfect experience! Thank you again for trusting the Met Players to be such a big part of your wedding!

    Kept everyone dancing all night!

    Entertainment for your big day is one area you should not sacrifice. I saw the Met Players at a wedding 7 years ago and continued to compare every other wedding since then. When it was our time to book a band, I went right to the Met Players. Everyone was raving about the band. “Fantastic!” was the buzz word of the night. They had our guests moving and smiling the entire time. One couple said, “we’ve never danced so much at a wedding in our lives, including our own.”
    Starting from the initial inquiry with Erin, we knew were in good hands. Eventually communication was handed off to Mandy and she was very attentive. She answered all my questions, helped navigate the timeline and where our special request songs should be played. The night of our wedding, no issues at all. Wish we could have kept the night going!

    Metropolitan Players's reply:

    Hi Colleen!
    Oh my goodness- I LOVE hearing about your journey with booking the Met Players! We cannot thank you enough for trusting Erin, Mandy, and Olivia, through the entire process! We always prioritize couples’ unique music taste and scheduling needs to guide the night and I have to say, planning with you was so much fun! Thank you so much for leaving this review- we’re wishing you the best!!

    Amazing Band

    Look, either a wedding band rocks or it doesn't and Metropolitan Players...they rock! Our band was talented, spirited and just overall fun--our guests were dancing from start to finish which is exactly what we hoped for. They have a fantastic catalogue of songs to choose from and were extremely accepting of our feedback on which songs we loved and which we preferred not to hear. Moreover, they were willing to learn several new songs (both for the ceremony, the parent dances, the first dance and the dance party) which really helped personalize the event. Working with Mandy was a pleasure--she was professional, supportive and helpful. Overall, selecting the Metropolitan Players was one of the best decisions we made during the planning process. We highly recommend!

    Metropolitan Players's reply:

    Hi Zach and Ali!
    Yay! I’m so glad to hear you were this happy with your experience and the band!! I love that your guests were dancing all night- that is always our goal! We loved personalizing the night to be exactly what you were looking for and I’m pleased we were able to facilitate so many meaningful moments throughout your wedding day! I loved working with you two and I’m going to miss your names in my inbox! Sending you all my best!

    Book the met players!

    I wish I had the option to give more stars because 5 simply doesn’t cut it for the Met Players!!!!! 100% the BEST decision we made for our wedding! We got married on 9/9/22 and our guests are STILL talking about the band and saying it’s the best wedding entertainment they have ever experienced! The Met Players bring the energy, start the party and keep the dance floor packed all night long! They can customize anything you need and will make your wedding feel so personalized and unique! If I have any wedding advice for brides to be— it’s to book the Met Players, you will not be disappointed, I promise!!

    Metropolitan Players's reply:

    Hi Jen!! Oh my goodness, thank you for such an amazing review! It is so great to hear that your guests are still talking about the ban!d Although, I have a hunch that you and your husband’s performance on the bandstand certainly has them raving!! ;) We strive to make every wedding as perfect as yours and I’m so pleased we were able to add in those personal touches to your night that made it so meaningful to you. I want to express my gratitude once again for letting the Metropolitan Players be such a big part of your wedding- and I’m sending all of my best as you two start your lives together!

    The Metropolitan Players were aboslutely phenomenal! They kept the energy going throughout the evening and had everyone dancing the night away. We’re so lucky we had such a phenomenal band and can't recommend them enough! What an evening to remember.

    Seriously, the most amazing wedding band

    We hired the Met Players to perform at our wedding reception, and we would make the same decision again a million times over. Seriously, they were the best wedding band we’ve ever heard. And it wasn’t just us — we had dozens of our guests come up to us with the same sentiment. That’s because they truly are just that good. From the beginning phase of planning to the wedding day of our dreams, the Met Players were flexible, willing to listen to us and what we wanted on the day of and genuinely easy to work with. Having given them a handful of song selections, they were able to perfectly curate a setlist that absolutely knocked it out of the park. The band learned an unusual special song to us that was one of the many highlights of the night, speaking to just how willing they are to make the day of your dreams. At no point throughout the night did the band let the dancefloor go empty. We cannot recommend the Met Players highly enough if you’re looking for a wedding band that will blow everyone away and keep the party going all night long.

    Metropolitan Players's reply:

    Emily!! We would happily work with you a million times over! ;) Thank you so much for this kind review and for sharing how blown away your guests were, we absolutely loved keeping them on the dance floor all night! With your amazing requests it was super easy to put together the set list of your dreams- we really appreciate how much you trusted us during this process and I’m so glad to hear that you felt we were easy to work with!! Thank you so much for letting us share your special day with you- we’ll certainly miss seeing your names in the inbox! We are wishing you and Joe all the happiness in the world!!!

    The dance floor was packed, all night!

    THE DANCE FLOOR WAS PACKED, ALL NIGHT. The Met Players (Metropolitan Players) are amazing!!! We’re so glad we chose them to play at our wedding. We worked with Mandy throughout the preparation process, Siobhan was our day of coordinator, and the band members were all wonderful. We love live music - a band who can command the room, having as much fun on stage as the guests dancing below. They sang their hearts out, had a few fun horn solos, and would sometimes lock eyes with me (bride) like I was at a concert, and we’d do the rock and roll hand sign to each other. It was SO much fun. Our guests absolutely loved the band. When we were gathering ourselves to walk in for our first dance, we looked at each other and said wait a second, is that OUR wedding band?! Playing our favorite first dance song?! Do I hear horns?! They’re so good!!! How lucky are we! Throughout the night people would come up to us and say holy cow did you hire a 30 person wedding band?! The answer is no, of course not, but they had the presence and sound that carried as if they were a much larger band.

    REPEAT CUSTOMERS - A bit about our process - we went to a number of showcases in NYC, where wedding bands play live, so you know what you’re getting before hiring them. We got a ton of quotes (~10). We parsed through bands we’d seen at other weddings. We saw many bands who were much worse live than they were in their videos - scary when you’re booking them for one very important day! When engaging with the Met Players, we were initially nervous because they don’t do any live showcases (They don’t do showcases because they cost a lot of money and don’t want to pass that financial burden onto their couples through final booking costs.) We thought - how can we be sure they’re great if we can’t hear them live?! We went back and forth with Mandy (couple coordinator) for a while to get comfortable. She sent us completely unedited YouTube videos of the band. We scoured the internet and any tagged videos on YouTube and Instagram. Unlike other bands, they post unedited content, so the sound is exactly what you’d actually hear the night of (shot on iPhone speakers). We read every review we could find on the internet. We spoke to couples who’d worked with them in the past. Ultimately, while all the research we did and people we spoke to did wonders to help us get comfortable, the final piece that sold us was the number of repeat customers they had. Many of the reviews were from friends or family of a couple that hired the Met Players in the past, who said they loved them so much at that wedding that they booked them for their own. Families who’d worked with the Met Players two and three times. Everyone had great things to say about them so we decided to take a leap of faith. And we are SO glad we did!! The unedited videos don’t do justice for what they sound like in person - they’re much better!

    END TO END A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE We can’t say enough good things about the Met Players. They’re spectacular, seem to be having as much fun as the guests at the wedding, have great energy, are amazing performers, and are exceptionally organized and informative throughout the planning process. We asked them to learn a few new songs for us (including, importantly, our first dance song!) and each one felt like they’d been playing it for years - they were that good. They took our first dance song and paired it down to be our desired length, it was better than the original! We had a guitar player play during our ceremony, which was acoustic and beautiful, and not two hours later were tearing up the dance floor with the band. The dance floor was packed all night!! If we were to plan our wedding all over again knowing everything we know now, we’d choose the Met Players again, every time. We’re so grateful for everything you did to make our wedding extra special and feel like us. Thank you, thank you!! We hope to see them at our friends’ weddings in the not too distant future.

    Sarah and Dan!! Oh my goodness what a nice review-this made my day!
    Siobhan couldn’t stop talking about how much fun your wedding day was! :) I’m so glad to hear that you were blown away by our sound - especially since you weren’t able to see us live! We can’t say enough good things about you two either! Our secret is that we really DO have as much fun on stage as the guests on the dance floor!! Each member of our band is passionate about the work they do and the love they get to share through their music. So thank you again for these kind words and for giving us a night to remember!! We wish you two ALL the best in your life together!!!!!!

    The best band ever!

    To all future brides or grooms who are contemplating which band to book for your wedding- you can stop here! I don't have enough positive things to say about the Metropolitan Players. First off, they were an absolute pleasure to work with in the 2 years leading up to my wedding and kept me well informed every step of the way. Day of my wedding, I had guests of all ages coming up to me and raving about them! I have never seen my father-in-law dance so much in his life. Everyone had a blast and I have the Metropolitan Players to thank for keeping the event running so smoothly and without any flaws. I've been to many weddings and none of the bands I've seen hold a candle to the Metropolitan Players. All band members are truly gifted and should honestly be on the radio!

    Metropolitan Players's reply:

    Hi Olga! This is all so great to hear! Our team loved working with you two and we are all so appreciative of this kind review!! It was great to work with you for the 2 years leading up to your wedding and I’m truly going to miss seeing your name in my inbox! It’s great to hear that all of your guests had such a great time- especially your father in law! I LOVE when we impress the parents ;) Our band strives to bring a high energy performance to every wedding they do and I know I speak for everyone when I say thank you for expressing how happy you were with their talent! I so appreciate you choosing the Metropolitan Players to dance the night away with you and we are sending you both our best as you move forward as husband and wife!! :)

    The BEST wedding band ever!

    The BEST wedding band ever! They had the dance floor packed for 4 hours in 90+ degree heat. The music was incredible and they kept the party atmosphere going all night long! Our emcee was fabulous and coordinated the evening seamlessly. So many of our guests commented on how impressive the band was and all the fun they had!

    Metropolitan Players's reply:

    Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words, Jamie and Cat! It is so great to hear how much fun everyone had at your wedding! I love that your guests were so blown away by us and that you got so many compliments from them on your band choice!! The Met Players will play rain or 90 degree shine- and still have a blast doing it! ;) Thank you for letting us be such a big part of your big day- we are wishing you two nothing but happiness after your amazing wedding!!

    Incredible band!

    Cannot recommend the Met Players enough! The band is exceptional and had our guests dancing all night long. We had never heard them play before booking them for our wedding (we got their name from a friend who had the Met Players at their wedding) and were not disappointed.

    Additionally, Erin, Mandy, and Siobhan were a pleasure to work with through every step of the planning process - great communicators and super thorough. You have to book the Met Players!

    Metropolitan Players's reply:

    Aww Kellyn!! Thank you so much for your kind review! We're so happy you and James felt like you were in good hands working with both myself (Erin!!) as well as Mandy and Siobhan! I’m so glad to hear that your guests had such a great time with us! And I’m SO appreciative that you felt comfortable choosing the Met Players even though you weren’t able to see us live! It was a true pleasure working with you two and I will certainly miss seeing your names in the inbox. Thank you for letting the Met Players be a part of your special day! We are wishing you two all the best! :)

    Best wedding band ever

    What can I say about the Met Players. I scoured the internet for bands for our wedding and was so disappointed in what I was seeing until I found them and they DELIVERED. Drew, Erin, Mandy and Elizabeth could not have been nicer and easier to communicate and plan with. I booked them without ever even seeing them live, just based on confidence from online videos and the professionalism of their communication. The band killed it. They learned all of our ceremonial songs and EIGHT MORE custom songs. Almost the entire wedding were personal songs outside of their song list!! Just can’t say enough how incredible they were start to finish. Highest of recommendations, book them now.

    Metropolitan Players's reply:

    Oh my goodness!! Thank you Doug and Britt for such an amazing review!! I’m SO glad that you felt comfortable choosing the Met Players even though you weren’t able to see us live! :) It’s so great to hear that you enjoyed the process from start to finish and that we were able to make your dreams come true! We are truly grateful to be able to work with couples like you and make the planning stage as easy as possible!! Not only was your wedding so much fun but the band loved learning all of your requests- especially when Doug played Lovesong alongside us as a surprise! We are wishing you two all of the best!!
