    Paris NY - the best band there is

    Paris New York was literally the best part of our wedding. Throughout the booking process, we were able to communicate very easily with Mike (band manager) and Allison (lead singer). We exchanged many emails, and they took my calls graciously. During the planning, we were able to select song from a list provided by the band - our selections served both as the list of songs that we wanted to hear, but it also served as a guide for the band of what type of songs to play (we wanted to keep the energy high and everyone dancing). In addition, the band actually learned our first dance song as well as the parent dance songs.

    On the day of our wedding, the band provided some background music for our cocktail hour which was PERFECT for the setting. Then, when the festivities began and the entrance songs were playing, I knew right away by the sound that we had made the right choice - the music was ELECTRIC. Our wedding party all walked in to our respective songs and they sounded EXACTLY like the originals...we were blown away. Once we completed our walk-in, our first dance song was played - Millionaire by Chris Stapleton. As soon as the first guitar riff was played, I teared up from the joy of the moment and how good the song sounded. My wife and I were on cloud nine...(I didn't know we invited Chris Stapleton to our wedding!).

    Paris then proceeded to play unbelievable renditions of songs that catered to every age range of the audience (something my wife and I talked about with the band when planning). They played songs that ranged from great disco-era, to Latin, to Frank Sinatra, to rock and roll, to country music, to early 00's (Blink 182!!), etc etc. The list could go on... Whenever a dance set was set to be had, the dance floor was literally packed to the point where people were dancing off the side of the dance floor - it was literally over flowing!! People NEVER sat down, and that was our biggest wish. People who don't normally dance, actually were dancing (including my 90+ year old grand parents!). Paris NY completely delivered and shattered all expectations.

    At the end of the night and throughout the next day, our guests kept coming up to us to tell us how amazing the band was. The theme was common - Paris NY was the best band that they ever heard. My wife and I agree - it was 100% the highlight of our wedding (aside from getting married!).

    Do yourself a favor and book them ASAP.

    Thank you so much, Paris NY. You all were phenomenal.

    Highly recommend

    We cannot say enough positive things about Paris NY! Such an incredibly talented band. They played our wedding this past weekend and completely rocked the night away. Our dance floor was packed as soon as they came on until the very last song. I cannot tell you how many people have said they completely made our wedding and were one of the best bands they’ve ever heard.
    They were professional and the easiest vendor we worked with from start to finish. Would recommend them to Anyone!

    Spectacular!

    Paris NY is absolutely amazing in every single way. After searching for a wedding band and looking online at hundreds of videos, I knew from the moment I saw Paris NY's video that they were right for us. No one, NO ONE! compares to Paris NY. Michael, Allison and the entire Paris NY band are exceptionally talented and professional. The music did not stop playing from the moment the ballroom doors were opened, to the last second. Our wedding was full of high energy, enthusiasm, great music and a packed dance floor. I cannot thank Michael, Allison and the Paris NY band enough for an absolutely spectacular wedding experience!!

    We were lucky enough to hear Paris New York at one of our close friend’s wedding 2 years ago and when it was our time to plan our wedding for July 21, 2018 it was a no brainer. They are by FAR the most talented, professional, and fun wedding band in the area. The band manager Michael was extremely responsive, accommodating, and knowledgeable leading up to the wedding. He took a trip to the venue the week before in order to check on the space and electrical supply when most vendors wouldn’t think twice. Allison, the band leader, is amazingly talented and caring, you can really tell she loves music and performing and would do everything in her power and abilities to make your day special. To highlight how talented this band is – we requested a custom version of a song for our first dance about a month before the wedding. They said it won’t be an issue and the band went to practice. The day of, we had not heard them play the song and sort of took a leap of faith that it would sound OK. They absolutely crushed the song and our first dance was exactly how we envisioned in our minds. It could not have been more perfect for us. They were also more than willing to learn any song we wanted so we put a few requests in. Again, they amazed us with how good they sounded considering they had just learned the songs we requested. We had 160 guests at our wedding and literally 100 of them told us specifically how good the band was and asked how we found them. About 10 women told us “your band was way better than our wedding band” which is unheard of as every brides wedding day is perfect. Have I mentioned they opened for Snoop Dog in Jersey City on 4th of July? I know how stressful wedding planning can be so please do yourself a favor and make the band one less thing you have to worry about by using PNY. They really are that good – from initial inquiry through your wedding day you will be amazed with the quality, talent, and professionalism of Mike, Ali, and the rest of PNY!

    This is the best wedding band there is, hands down! They played at my cousin's wedding 2 years before my wedding and they were outstanding both times. You will not find any better. They are also a pleasure to deal with. If I was getting married again, this is the first vendor whom I would book. I am still getting compliments about them all these months later.

    The most important vendor (besides food, maybe) for your guests! The video, pictures & jewelry are for the bride and groom, but your band is there for all of your guests - and the band determines how great of a time your guests have. With Paris, you have nothing to worry about! We have now been to 3 weddings with Paris (ours included) and the dance floor was full for all of them. And the best part, is that all 3 weddings had different music preferences so we never felt like we were at the same event. They provide incredible entertainment for people of all ages. I never thought I would see our aunts and uncles enjoy dancing to music that came out that same year, and I never thought my friends would enjoy Motown classics - they made it all happen. With my husband being a DJ years ago, we were VERY specific about what we wanted and when we wanted it… they made it all happen. We also had a few songs that the band had to “learn” for us, and it sounded like they had been playing it for years. They were the band at my sister’s wedding in 2011, and people are still talking about how great they were. I expect the same to happen with ours! We just got our video and it was so great listening back to Paris again. Highly recommend!

      I first experienced Paris band eleven years ago at my brother’s wedding and absolutely loved everything about the sound.  There was no question that Paris would be the band playing at our wedding!  They are the best choice hands down.  Not only is the music amazing they are absolutely a pleasure to work with. My husband and I chose a country song for our wedding song, but neither of us felt comfortable with the ending.  Not a problem for Paris! They changed a few of the words to fit and it was amazing! Family and friends are still complementing us on the band!  Everyone was dancing the whole night.  We tell all our friends that are getting married to book Paris, they will not be disappointed.  Thank you Paris for a wonderful night!

    We had the good foresight and the great joy to have PARIS perform at our wedding in December, 2013! This group of extremely gifted, personable and passionate musicians continue to raise the bar and redefine the word “Band” time after time. Their attention to every music request, detail and nuance was met with “…yes, no problem!” And when we requested a special song not well-known by the general public, they went home and learned it! Their performance at our wedding is still being talked about by all our guests and we are truly thankful to them for making our wedding day so incredibly joyful and memorable for us, our family and friends. We say with all sincerity that there are only two kinds of bands to choose from for life’s special occasions --PARIS-- and everybody else!

    Heard them at a friend's wedding several years ago and my now husband and I always thought they were the best band we had heard, even after we heard many other bands at other weddings so we had to book them for our event. They were very responsive, always available to answer questions, and worked with us and our parents to make sure we had a great mix of top 40 and some older music. Everyone at the reception loved them and people are still talking about how great they were! They had a great energy and kept the music going and people on the dance floor. They were a pleasure to work with!

    Words cannot describe how absolutely FLAWLESS Paris was at our Fall 2013 wedding! The band was the main highlight of the evening, and everyone is still talking about it!

    The band bent over backwards to accommodate our every song selection, including learning a very old Greek song that my Grandmother loved! I almost cried when I heard how perfectly they had learned it from a scratchy old recording I provided them!

    Everything sounded so amazing throughout the night, and as soon as guests entered the reception hall the high energy music had them on the dance floor! Everyone was dancing all night, and no one was really ever sitting except when trying to eat a bit of their dinner! They can sing everything from the Beatles and Frank Sinatra, to the newest Avicii dance song, and they sound AWESOME!

    There were no gaps or pauses in the entertainment, and they truly are masters at conducting the flow of a wedding reception! I am the second person in my family to use them at my wedding, and I will continue to zealously recommend them to others, and use them for any large affairs I throw in the future!

    We HIGHLY recommend Paris because they truly are the best in every way. They are wonderful to work with and they are so willing to learn special songs and work with you to match your style. They can play just about anything from oldies to new pop songs and they sound so much like the originals. Our wedding song was a beautiful song by Billy Joel that started to pick up at a faster pace so we were worried our first dance wouldn't be slow enough. NO WORRIES! Paris slowed the song down for us and it was absolutely perfect. They will make your wedding a dream come true - just like ours was!!! Our sister's wedding is in November and this will be the third sister (bride) in our family that has had the pleasure of having Paris perform at their wedding - everything was perfect from beginning to end and you really can't go wrong! :) Since our wedding, all of our guests have made many comments about how amazing Paris is and have been requesting their contact information for their newly engaged friends and family members.
    THANK YOU PARIS!!!

    We were so happy with our choice of band! Live Music by Paris is amazing! The range of music that they can play is unbelievable- from 40s to today. They are such a crowd pleaser with their ability to play from any genre. The dance floor was packed the whole time! Mike and Robin were so great to work through the planning process. And so stress free! We have had so many guests ask us about our band and tell us how much fun they were!!

    Paris was beyond incredible. I have never heard a band do covers BETTER than the original band! They made our wedding night incredible Between the instruments and their voices, they are the WHOLE package. We can't possibly thank them enough for making our reception come alive! No need to look anywhere else for a better band..you won't find one, I promise.

    I got married in September 2011, and it is now October, 2014 as I am writing this review. Better late than never, right? :)

    PEOPLE ARE STILL TALKING ABOUT HOW GOOD MY BAND WAS AT MY WEDDING 3 YEARS AGO!!!

    My guests are STILL saying how they never even sat down because the music was so good and kept them dancing all night! I still have guests calling/texting or asking me in person who my band was at my wedding and if I could send them the list of music from that night! One of my best friends even booked her venue around Paris' availability after attending my wedding!

    At least 4 couples that attended our wedding booked our band either on the spot or shortly thereafter, and now their siblings who are getting married are doing the same.

    My husband and I attend A LOT of weddings, as in 12 in 2012, and 14 in 2014, so we know a good band when we see one. And this is an amazing band.

    Paris gets the crowd up and out of their seats, so much so that guests forget to eat their food because they are dancing all night. They are the best vendor to work with as the are accommodating, understanding and will truly work with you to make whatever you need happen. Not to mention, they are very reasonably priced.

    They are personable, nice and just great genuine people, who also happen to be extremely talented!

    When we see them at affairs they remember us and always give us a warm greeting - it's truly a pleasure!

    I cannot say enough good things about Paris. We stumbled upon them at a wedding show that we decided to attend last minute, and they were the first and best choice of vendors to work with for our wedding.

    Planning a wedding is generally a stressful thing, and I would NOT like to do it again, but if it meant being able to work with Paris and enjoy their music at my own affair again, then I'm in!

    Paris did an AMAZING job at my wedding! My guests are still raving about them! Mike is very easy to talk to and a great guy! The music was amazing, and it was hard to differenciate between the DJ and the live band. They play every kind of music, more than what's on their website, and they will work with you for what you want. They had the party going all night, and everyone was on the dance floor!

    Paris was FANTASTIC!!!!

    They played at my May wedding and people are STILL raving about them. They sounded incredible. If you want a band but you're worried that they won't be able to play popular songs, then HIRE PARIS! My guests remarked to me that they forgot they were listening to a band at one point and thought they were listening to the actual tracks.

    You won't regret hiring them. They were worth every penny.

    Paris was everything I hoped for and more! We were concerned at first because our best friends booked Paris for their wedding a few months before ours and a lot of guests were overlapping; however, after seeing how much they enjoyed our friends' wedding, we knew we would have no problem whatsoever.

    The band sounds spectacular. They do it ALL, from old to new, and sometimes it's a struggle to differentiate between their music and what's on the radio. Then you see the singer next to you on the dance floor. As for flexibility- they learned several songs for us, including our wedding song. They also changed up a few of their "regulars" for our special requests, while making their expert suggestions along the way.

    Paris was on a short list of vendors that I was not concerned about at all on our wedding day and I was right in trusting them. There is nothing more important than good food and good music at a wedding, and Paris took care of their part!

    Paris....What can we say?! You were ALL amazing!!! Tim and I couldnt have picked a more talented band. Our guests are still raving about your music! I loved how you sang everything across the song charts and sounded exactly like the artists. Alison couldnt have done our wedding song "Heaven" more perfect even if she tried. It gave us tingles throughout our body. Thank you for giving us a wonderful wedding and for being amazing musicians!!!!! Love Jessica & Tim Korber

    Paris was an AMAZING band! They were easy to work with and most importantly they really made our night PERFECT! Our dance floor was packed the entire night! I looked at a lot of bands, from NY to NJ and it wasn't easy to find a band that could truly do a mix of oldies, current music, Latin, motown, etc. and do it well....they went beyond that and did an excellent job! Everyone at my wedding talks about the band and couldn't get over how great they were. My husband is a 'music guy' and couldn't have been happier. I don't make recommendations or go onto sites much to write reviews, but this was worth it because of how happy we were with them!!!
