Paris meets New York! 2330 1400 adam Michaels

Paris meets New York!

The date was April 23rd, 2022 when Marisa and James came together with all of their guests in celebration of their wedding event!

Marisa and James, now Mr. and Mrs. Miller chose the beautiful New York City wedding venue Bryant Park Grill located in heart of Manhattan.  The Parisian-style dining with the backdrop of the iconic landmark of the New York Public Library made for an eclectic venue and reception experience. The beautiful seasonal patio and roof dining truly made every guest feel like they were on top of the world in the city that never sleeps!

The evening began with a beautiful rooftop wedding. The bride was serenaded down the aisle by the Around Town Entertainment’s string trio playing “Here Comes the Sun” by the Beatles. The cello, viola, and violin were a great choice by Marisa and James to add a sophisticated and intimate flair to their beautiful ceremony. It was a lovely twist when the trio celebrated after the “I do’s” by sending the bride and groom down the aisle to Aretha Franklin’s “Say A Little Prayer!”

The Around Town Band from Around Town Entertainment was the New York City band the couple had selected for the wedding celebration. The band first provided a jazz trio for their cocktail hour. The trio played a lively mix of jazz and contemporary selections to entertain their guests as the drinks flowed and the perfect ambiance was set.  The trio was a pianist, a bassist, and a guitarist. The combination of the three was just the right blend to not overwhelm the space but still the right touch to create a spirited vibe in the space.  The guests loved the music and the night was off to a great start.

From there the guests moved to the main reception in the Dining Room where they were greeted with the orchestral sounds of a 10-piece band.  The NY wedding band had the guests right through the door and onto the dance floor.  It was an exciting party from the very start.

The bride and groom had a very special first dance to the Otis Redding song, “That’s How Strong My Love Is.” The band of course prepared the requested song for the special moment and performed this live. The bride also had a special wedding dance with her father to the very appropriate song “My Girl” by the Temptations.  The groom then escorted his mom to the dance floor and they had a wonderful moment together dancing to the Van Morrison song, “Crazy Love.”   The guests were moved by the moment and felt compelled to jump in on the next dance song.   The dance floor was full of an excited bunch and the energy in the room was astounding!

The dancing continued and the guests were on their feet for hours as the band played continuous live music throughout the evening.  The Around Town Band was asked to play a few of the couple’s favorite songs, including “Fantasy” by Mariah Carey and “Hold On, I’m Coming” by Sam and Save.

These songs were a huge hit as was the entire evening where the guests danced.  It was the perfect way for Marisa and James to start their lives together.  This was a classic New York wedding-style event with the perfect combination of champagne, dancing, and great company along with the perfect New York Wedding Entertainment.

Around Town Entertainment was honored to be part of the great celebration and we wish Mr. and Mrs. Miller a lifetime of love and dancing!

Unique First-Dance Choices Performed by the Best Wedding Bands 750 750 adam Michaels

Unique First-Dance Choices Performed by the Best Wedding Bands

The First Dance song is such an important tradition of your wedding. It’s such a tender and intimate moment between you and your partner that you get to share, with the support and love from all your family and friends as they watch you two share the first dance of your time as a married couple. Couples remember their first dance song forever, so it’s important to pick a song that fits you and your fiancé in the best way AND to make sure that you have a wedding band that will actually honor your request. Around Town Entertainment’s bands all honor your must-have song requests, so you know that your First Dance will be a memory that you’ll hold on to forever. This is also such an important moment because it sets the tone for the rest of the evening! The right song can be so sentimental for you and what you and your partner want to share with the world about your relationship, but it also can be a moment of celebration for you two to dance like no one is watching!

Some couples pick the most romantic songs, while others go for a more comedic effect. Sometimes, couples go a more traditional route and pick their parents’ first dance song. We’ve seen it all! Below is a highlights list of some of our favorite and more unique first dance songs selected by our couples, performed live by each of our very own NYC wedding bands in and around the tri-state area and beyond!

  1. “Hooked On A Feeling” – Blue Swede – Paige and Thomas got married at the Madison Hotel under the stars in Morristown, New Jersey! For their first dance song, they picked the iconic “Hooked On A Feeling,” which had the crowd singing along! That famous Ooga-Chaka got the crowd roaring as the After Party Band got everyone on their feet and watching Paige and Thomas rock out together for the first time as husband and wife. This song SCREAMS fun, and definitely sets an exciting and celebratory tone for the rest of the evening with high energy and fun in store!
  2. “Danza Kuduro” – Don Omar – Kaitlyn and Julio celebrated their wedding at The Barn at Villa Venezia in Middletown, New York! Before the big day, the two kept a big secret from even their closest friends and family members. They knew they wanted to do a surprise choreographed dance! They took lessons, had the dance choreographed, and practiced a whole ton to get the moment just right! Instead of just playing the recording they had been ceaselessly rehearsing to, they had the Around Town Band perform “Danza Kuduro” live and their surprise first dance went off without a hitch! Just like they rehearsed, the two shared such a beautiful and memorable moment and wowed all their guests!
  3. “True Companion” – Marc Cohn – Third times the charm! After having to delay their special day three times due to COVID-19, Kristen and Dusty couldn’t be more excited than when they finally got married and partied it up at the Fiddler’s Elbow Country Club in Bedminster, New Jersey. Even though they might have been tempted to share the surprise through the many postponements, they decided to keep their first dance song choice a secret! The two settled on “True Companion” by March Cohn, as he so eloquently lyricizes the magic behind finding your “true companion.” Kristen and Dusty’s family and friends were truly touched and hummed along with the Altitude Band, as the pianist sounded just like Marc Cohn!
  4. “I’ll Be” – Edward McCain – Do you remember that moment in Hilary Duff’s “A Cinderella Story” when Sam and Austin shared that magical masquerade dance under the gazebo with the musicians in the garden?! The lights! The romance! We all watched that scene and smiled as they danced to “I’ll Be” by Edward McCain and fell in love! Well, Emily and Ivan recreated this special moment as their first dance! They had their reception at the Hall of Springs in Saratoga Springs, New York. They rehearsed and rehearsed their special dance to perform for their friends and family, so it was super important to them that they find a band that would recreate the moment just like the live musicians played for Sam and Austin. The A-List Band nailed the performance as they had their male vocalist sing with such emotion it sounded even better than the recording!

These are just a few special highlights of some unique First Dance moments that the bands of Around Town Entertainment bring to life for many of our new and happy couples! Whether you have a special dance routine you want to kick-ball-change through with your partner or rock out with your spouse-to-be like you’re the only two in the room, we’ve got you covered!

Something special was brewing! 1200 800 adam Michaels

Something special was brewing!

Paige and Tom met when they were set up on a mysterious blind date by a mutual friend! Well, it took a bit of time for Paige and Tom to soften up to the idea. After years of trying to make it happen, the date finally happened! The two met at the Stagehouse Tavern giddy with excitement and nerves. They enjoyed a delicious dinner and spend over four hours enjoying one another’s company and getting to know one another. The conversation just flowed and flowed and the two knew they had something special brewing. Needless to say, they had a great time, and maybe their friend really knew what they were doing!

For years, the two went on many fun adventures together. They saw many amazing shows, and enjoyed many movies, restaurants, and game nights together. For three years, they made many amazing memories and fell more and more in love with one another, knowing that “something special” was no longer a slight simmer but a roaring boil!

For their three-year anniversary, Tom took Paige back to the Stagehouse Tavern, where they had their first date! Just like their first date, they enjoyed the food and one another’s company until, to Paige’s surprise, Tom got down on one knee and asked her to marry him! For her, it was the easiest yes of their life!

They knew their wedding was going to be such a special and momentous occasion and knew they needed to say their “I Do’s” at the best venue and have the best wedding music to celebrate! Paige and Tom got married and celebrated at the Madison Hotel in New Jersey. The Conservatory was all decked out with beautiful floral arrangements, and the sunset shone through all the glass windows and ceilings during the ceremony and cocktail hour. Paige walked down the aisle with a smile to a beautiful piano arrangement of “Simply the Best” played by the pianist of the After Party Band. Once she and Tom were declared man and wife, everyone practically sang along to the Around Town Entertainment’s pianist playing “This Will Be An Everlasting Love!” Off to celebrate they went!

Tom and Paige’s sense of humor DEFINITELY showed throughout their reception! They had the After Party Band play many of their favorite songs! When the groomsmen entered the reception hall everyone cheered as they danced along to “It’s Raining Men!” When the bridal party entered, they strutted into the conservatory to “Run the World, Girls!” by Beyoncé! Then, when the newlyweds were ready to make their grand entrance, the familiar Star Wars Theme Song was played. Just kidding! It was a fakeout! After the first few chords, Paige and Tom sang along to Queen’s iconic “Don’t Stop Me Now!”

All the guests rocked all night long to Tom and Paige’s favorite songs including “Shout,” “Larger Than Life” by the Backstreet Boys, “Through the Years” and many other hit songs! They also celebrated with a Hora!

Congratulations to Paige and Tom, and cheers to many more laughs and memories through the years!

From Istanbul to New York City! 900 600 adam Michaels

From Istanbul to New York City!

Senay and Robert met when they were both working in the U.S. Consulate General in Istanbul, Turkey. Istanbul native Senay met Robert, a born-and-raised New Yorker, on Robert’s first day as a diplomat in 2018. Robert had only been on the job for a few minutes when Seney walked down a flight of stairs and into his life! 

The two became fast friends, and Seney soon took on the unofficial role of Robert’s tour guide and translator. It wasn’t long before Robert asked Seney to be his girlfriend. She refused him twice, despite many close friends telling her that Robert was a keeper. Things changed when they took a trip to Eskisehir, and Seney began to see Robert in a new light, and expressed that the romantic feelings were reciprocated. Robert opted to extend his assignment in Istanbul so that he and Seney could continue to build their relationship. Before they knew it, Robert and Seney were making wedding plans! They planned to be married on May 14, 2020 at a large ceremony in Istanbul. Of course, those plans fell through due to the pandemic, and instead they had an intimate ceremony on June 9th.

Though Seney and Robert may have said “I Do” in front of only a handful of people, they did get the chance to celebrate their love with all their family and friends this past fall! The reception of their dreams took place in Robert’s native New York City, at the University Club. As guests arrived for cocktails they were greeted by beautiful music played by Around Town Entertainment’s Harpist. Once cocktail hour was in full swing, guests mingled, congratulating the happy couple and tapping their toes to their favorite Jazz standards—courtesy of Around Town’s Jazz Trio!

Soon it was time to head upstairs to the reception! Seney and Robert entered the ballroom to Beyonce’s “Freedom,” played by Around Town’s Authority Band. For their first dance, the band played “Fly Me to the Moon” by Frank Sinatra. As they danced, Seney and Robert looked at each other lovingly, it was clear they had been waiting for this moment for a long time. After the slow dance, the party was kicked off with the traditional Turkish dance, Erik Dali, celebrating Seney’s heritage and also reminding the couple of where their story began. The high energy continued as the band followed that up by playing some other upbeat favorites, like “Don’t Stop the Party” by Pitbull. 

For the cake cutting, the band played “Feeling Good” by Nina Simone. The guests let out some “aw’s” as Seney and Robert shared that first slice of cake. After dessert, it was time to keep the party going with more music! The Authority Band played all of Seney and Robert’s favorite songs, including NK’s “Elefante” and “Despacito” by Luis Fonsi. The Band finished off the night by playing “New York’s My Home” by Ray Charles, celebrating the fact that Seney and Robert have begun a beautiful life together in New York City.

Thanks, Seney and Robert for having the Authority Band “start spreading the news” that you’re beginning your new life together in the big apple!

A Rocking Love

Elena and Ryan met when Elena attended a performance by Ryan’s band, The Break Lights. After the show, Elena got to go backstage and meet the band, and the two clicked instantly! Elena started to attend more Break Lights shows, and the performances she and Ryan would hang out and get to know each other. 

Their connection deepened when they were both coincidentally planning trips to Vietnam. After Ryan saw Elena’s Facebook post asking for travel recommendations, he took a chance and messaged her asking if she might be interested in “meeting up somewhere along the way,” and next thing they knew, the two of them were cozied up watching a documentary about Vietnam! Elena and Ryan headed off on the first of many adventures, meeting in Chiang Mai, Thailand, the place their romance truly started and the city they both vow they’d move to in a heartbeat. They spent the next two weeks in Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia learning all about each other.

One day in the summer of 2019, Brandon, a photographer friend, invited Elena and Ryan down to the beach to help take photos, Elena was a little suspicious. But, when Ryan got down on one knee and proposed, everything around them melted away as they shared in this special moment. It marked the beginning of the next phase in their commitment to one another.

Elena and Ryan celebrated their big day at the Women’s Club of Glen Ridge in New Jersey. The wedding party processed down the aisle to Jason Mraz, played by Around Town Entertainment’s pianist! As Elena entered, everyone rose as the pianist played “Clair de Lune.” Elena looked radiant in her gown, and the smile on Ryan’s face when he saw her lit up the room. Everyone applauded as they were pronounced husband and wife, and they recessed back up the aisle to Ray LaMontagne’s “You Are the Best Thing.”

Elena, Ryan, and their guests then enjoyed cocktail hour out on the patio. Everyone enjoyed the scenic grounds as well as music from Around Town’s Jazz Trio, featuring a guitarist, a pianist, and a bass player!

After cocktails, everyone adjourned to the grand ballroom, where they were greeted with music from Around Town’s Authority Band! The bridal party made a lively entrance to “Can’t Stop the Feeling” by Justin Timberlake. Elena and Ryan then made their grand entrance to “Electric Love” by BORNS, before transitioning into their first dance, which was set to “Baby I’m Yours” by The Arctic Monkeys, a song very close to the couple’s hearts. The couple then shared dances with their parents, Elena and her father dancing to Chrisette Michele’s “Your Joy” and Ryan and his mother dancing to “Because You Loved Me” by Celine Dion. After the slow dances were over, The Authority Band was ready to rock! The band spent the night playing all of Elena and Ryan’s favorite songs, including Dua Lipa’s “Levitating” and “Only Human” by the Jonas Brothers. It was definitely a night to remember!

Thank you, Elena and Ryan, for letting us rock your special day!

Romance Was In The Air 1600 1067 adam Michaels

Romance Was In The Air

On the evening of March 30th, 2019, Anne headed to The Inn at Longshore for her old friend Audrey’s wedding. Unbeknownst to Anne, this wedding would change her life… At the reception, while Anne was waiting in line for a drink, she felt a tap on her shoulder. She spun around to meet a woman named Elissa. Elissa began to ask Anne a load of questions, as a part of her hunt to find a worthy companion for her “charming and handsome” son, Adam. Based on the description, and photo that the woman showed her, Anne was certainly intrigued! As the wedding came to an end, Elissa asked Anne for her number so she could give it to Adam.   Anne enthusiastically obliged.

Days went by; Anne was yet to hear from Adam. She started to think that surely it was too good to be true. That is, until April 4th, when she finally got the text she was waiting for! Their conversation continued through the day and night and on. Adam asked Anne if she would like to go on a date with him the upcoming weekend. On the evening of April 11th, they met at the Manhattan Cricket Club, which continued until they were the last customers in the bar.   

Adam and Anne celebrated their big day at Le Chateau in South Salem, NY. Their ceremony—which took place on Le Chateau’s grounds—was accompanied by Around Town Entertainment’s pianist! Anne looked radiant as she glided down the aisle as the pianist played “Can’t Help Falling In Love,” and Adam smiled in anticipation. After the couple exchanged their vows, they happily walked back up the aisle to “Here Comes the Sun” as their friends and family applauded. 

Adam, Anne, and their guests then headed to Le Chateau’s scenic Pierpoint Room for cocktails. As everyone drank and mingled, they enjoyed music from Around Town’s Jazz Trio, which featured a pianist, a guitarist, and a bass player! 

Everyone then moved over to the Ballroom for the reception! The wedding party entered the ballroom to Justin Timberlake’s “Can’t Stop the Feeling” played by Around Town’s Altitude Band. Everyone cheered as Anne and Adam strutted into the ballroom to “This Will Be (An Everlasting Love)” by Natalie Cole, getting the celebration started! The band then slowed things down for the couple’s first dance—” Everything” by Michael Bublé! From the way they looked into each other’s eyes as they danced, it was clear that Anne and Adam are each other’s “everything.” Anne then shared a dance with her father to “Love Someone” by Lukas Graham, and Adam and his mother—the woman who started it all—danced to Stevie Wonder’s “You Are the Sunshine of my Life.” After the slow dances concluded, the Altitude Band brought the energy up as everyone came onto the dance floor to do the Hora!

Anne and Adam took a moment to celebrate another couple—Anne’s parents, Amy and Marty, who were celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary! A toast was shared in their honor, and Amy and Marty said that they hope Anne and Adam share as much happiness as they have over the years. Amy and Marty then took to the dance floor to recreate their first dance to Billy Joel’s “You’re My Home.”

The Altitude Band had everyone rocking well into the night, playing all of Anne and Adam’s favorite songs, including Ray LaMontagne’s “You Are the Best Thing” and “Love Shack” by the B-52’s!

Thank you Adam and Anne for having the Altitude Band underscore your fairytale wedding!
