"New York, New York"


New York never stops to inspire. As New York musicians we see the city at it's finest: from the world famous stages of Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center to the orchestra pits of sold out Broadway shows, from intimate clubs to prestigious performance venues. As wedding musicians we see people at their happiest: in love, starting a new life surrounded by friends and family. 
Our best clients are the couples that select music that reflects their personality and tells their story. We loved our recent couple who asked us to accompany the groom's father in the rendition of "God Bless the Broken Road" during the ceremony. Their processionals were a mix of contemporary and traditional and included "What a Wonderful World", "Here Comes the Sun" and Pachelbel's Canon. But what brought us to our core was their choice of the recessional. 
For the first time in over ten years in the wedding business we were asked to play "New York, New York". At first we were a little surprised by this choice since usually couples choose to pay tribute to their love and not to the city that brought them together. What made this choice really magical was the location of the ceremony. 
We played at the Main Street Pebble Beach at Brooklyn Bridge Park , with the skyline of the city as a backdrop and a witness to the nuptials. As we played the song, it resonated within us, and created both powerful and sentimental energy for everyone present. Great moment!


"If I can make it there, I'll make it anywhere, 
It's up to you, New York, New York".

  1. Don’t forget about guests travelling to your wedding. If you want to avoid incurring expensive taxi charges and hotel bills for them or coach costs for you, look for a wedding venue near to where the majority of your guests live.
