What
They're Saying ...
The
Boathouse in Central Park
Dear
Rich,
We just wanted to let you know how much
we enjoyed having your band, New York Edge, perform at our wedding
in October. As soon as we had met you and viewed tapes of the
band, we knew you would provide the perfect compliment to our
day. We
were not disappointed.
Not only did you provide wonderful musical entertainment, it
was a pleasure dealing with you from a business standpoint as
well. You are the antithesis to so many of the negative implications
applied to those involved in the wedding industry. Your personal
integrity matches your incredible musical abilities, and you
made our day more special than we could have ever imagied. So
many of our guests could not say enough good things about the
entire band, an assessment shared by us wholeheartedly. Thanks
so much for everything.
Sincerely,
Dear
Rich, Shanti and the entire New York Edge Orchestra,
There is no other band!
I've
never been to a wedding where the band seemed to be having
as much fun as the bride and groom (and we had a really
good time). Your energy was infectious and the proof is
in the pictures!
In all the photos we have seen not only is the dance floor
always full, but all you see on the faces are huge ear to
ear grins!
Please, please, please send people our way for a reference.
We would love to share what a great experience it was having
you at our wedding!
New
York Botanical Gardens
Dear
Rich and Shanti,
Thank
you so much for a phenomenal evening of nonstop music at our
wedding. From the cocktail hour to the last song, everything
was just right.
My
only complaint (kidding) is that guests did not want to leave
the dance floor and we had trouble getting around to them
all. But that was countered by always being able to look up
from wherever we were in the room and seeing the floor packed
with people having the time of their lives one of our
best memories of that day.
It
is inevitable that whenever people mention of our wedding
we hear comments about how great the band was to which
we wholeheartedly agree.
AnnMari
and I cannot say enough good things about you and have recommended
you to anyone looking for a band. If you ever need a testimonial,
do not hesitate to pass on our number.
Thanks
again for making our wedding such a wonderful time.
Sincerely,

Dear
Rich and New York Edge,
We want to thank you for making our wedding reception such a
success.
Everyone keeps remarking that you are the best band they've
ever heard and they're right!
The music sounded fantastic and everyone, especially us, had
a fabulous time dancing to it!
We look forward to seeing and hearing you again soon.
Dear
Rich,
What can the Hershbergs and the Malhotras say?
Your
band was just fantastic!
From
the wedding ceremony trio thru the cocktail hour to the
reception WOW! You had your finger on the pulse of
the evening and everybody raved! and danced!!!
Thank you for helping to make this wedding celebration
so memorable. (You have helped give Rachael and Neil marveous
momories for a lifetime.)
Best
wishes for many future successes.

Dear
Rich and Shanti,
Thank you so much for providing outstanding music for our wedding.
Cathy and I knew that you would do an excellent job and you
did. Everyone raved to us about how great the music was. We,
and everyone else, had a blast dancing the night away. My only
complaint is that it went by so fast! We will recommend you
to anyone who asks if we know a good band. And of course, feel
free to use us as a
reference in the future.
Sincerely,
Rich,
We can't thank you enough form making our wedding so much fun.
People
are still complimenting us on how great the band
was.

Dear
Rich,
Thank you for making my wedding so wonderfully memorable. I
knew you guys would be great, but you surpassed even my expectations.
I'm still hearing compliments about NY Edge, weeks after the
wedding. If you ever need a reference, please don't hesitate
to call.
Regards,
Dear
Rich,
I would like to thank you on behalf of Lewis, Dorey, Kevin and
myself for the outstanding job you did to make the wedding a beautiful,
lively and truly fun evening. From the very beginning to the very
end you were incredible to work with. At no time did you make
us feel that we were bothering you or that our requests were out
of line. Making all of the wedding arrangements long distance
could have proved to be a nightmare but working with you made
the decisions and arrangements stress free. It was such a pleasure
because everytime I spoke with you I felt as though I was speaking
with someone who cared about us, and who wanted to be certain
every detail was as we wanted. I was certain that when we hung
up the phone our requests would be attended to. You combine professionalism,
efficiency, and organization with talent, warmth and humour.
Somehow from the first conversation we had almost a year ago to
the meeting you had first with Dorey and Kevin and then again
with three of us, we believed we were making the right decision.
Beginning with the music played during the ceremony to the music
during the dinner, you and your singers and musicians proved us
right in our judgement. All of you performed and sang so beautifully
that we have received nothing but compliments. we hope when you
read this note you will think of us and how grateful we are that
you made our New York experience such a pleasure, not only for
us but for our guests as well. If there is anything I can do for
you...
With Sincere Appreciation,

Dear
Rich and Shanti,
Thank
you from the bottom of our hearts for making our daughter, Lisa's
wedding the most wonderful affair possible.You are the greatest!
I have never attended an affair where the band was as sensitive
and as professional as you were to every detail. From the moment
the wedding began, the place rocked. As I searched out guests to
thank them for coming, they were not to be found at their tables
because they were all on the dance floor from Lisa and Barry's
friends to relatives in their 80's. Your sensitivity and professionalism
met the needs of everyone. Every song request that we even mentioned
to you in passing was remembered.
My
heart was especially touched when you remembered that my husband,
Joe, really wanted to play harmonica at the wedding. Although
he did not bring one with him and had shrugged off playing, you
guys pulled one out for him and his long awaited wish was fulfilled.
He loved playing and the guests loved it as well.
We
have received many calls from guests and they have all been raving
about the band
The only complaint was sore feet!
Thank
you thank you, thank you. You are the greatest!
With
all our love and gratitude,
Linda
and Joe Cali (Mom and Dad)
(wedding of Lisa and Barry Moss)
The
best advice I can give anyone making a wedding is to get a great
band. The band makes the wedding. The better the band, the
better the wedding.
THE
NEW YORK EDGE IS THE BEST!

Thank
you so much for helping to make our wedding the event of the year!
There
has not been one person who attended our wedding who hasnt
commented on your superior performance. Everyone had a great time
and the music really helped set the tone. The way you all worked
the crowd was amazing it seemed that the right song was
always being played at the right time!
We
also really enjoyed getting to know you you are really
wonderful people to work with and you can rest assured that you
will always get high praise from both of us.

Dear
Rich (and New York Edge),
Thank you for helping to make our wedding day such and inceredible
one. You guys were awesome! We had so much fun! The music
was great and your personality and style added to the fun
of the celebration. Our guests loved the music (as you could
tell by everyone up on the dance floor) and I have never
had so much fun dancing.
We'd
be happy to serve as a reference for the band in the future.
Thanks again for making our celebration unforgettable.

Dear
Rich and Shanti,
Brian
and I can not put into words how much we enjoyed you talent and
professionalism.
Both
Brian and I could not have enjoyed you more at our wedding and as
my guest remind us New York Edge Music made the
party top notch.
I
enclose some photos for you to have. And if you have any doubt
as to how good you are, you'll notice in the photo with Shanti
singing and my brother and I dancing the lady in yellow behind
us only had major hip replacement 4 weeks prior. When I asked
her why she was up when she is still recovering she replied, the
band is so good I could not just sit and watch everyone else dance.
Dear
Rich,
Will
and I were absolutely thrilled with both the performance and professionalism
of the New York Edge. Our guests danced up a storm and continue
to rave about the music two months later.
Thank
you for following though with our requests and helping to create
our vision for the perfect wedding. Our expectations were far
surpassed. Please feel free to use Will and I as references for
the band.
Sincerely,
Dear
Rich and Shanti,
We
can't thank you enough for making our wedding so extra special.
The music was fabulous. Our families and friends are still talking
about it. Everyone loved how you danced and sang and interacted
with the guests. You involved all of our guests and everyone had
a ball dancing the night away.
In
preparing for our wedding there was so much to do and take care
of. We wanted to make sure all of our guests had fun and enjoyed
the night. Thanks to your wonderful music that was not a problem
at all. You made everything so easy. From the cocktail hour to the
reception everything was perfect. We can't thank you enough.
Dear
Rich and the New York Edge,
Thank
you so much for providing such wonderful entertainment at our wedding.
I have received so many compliments on your behalf from the Field
Club manager to parents and friends you had everyone dancing!
Your professionalism before and during our wedding was so apparent
and the selectons you chose at different times were very tasteful
and never too loud. We thank you again for making our evening so
much fun!
Warmly,

Dear

We just wanted to send a note to thank you and the rest to the band
for making our weddng awesome. People are still talking about how
great you guys were!
Everyone
we talk to mentions the band as one of the reasons the wedding
was so much fun. Thanks again for everything.
Love,
Dear
Rich and Shanti,
Again,
we just wanted to let you know how happy we were to have you perform
at our wedding. We had a wonderful time dancing to the music,
and the evening seemed to have just flown by!
There
was
something magical that evening, with all our freinds and family
dancing so enthusiastically all around us. Shanti sang our first
song so beautifully that we wish we had a recording of it for memory's
sake. In fact, many of our guests still comment on how great your
band was that evening!
Please feel free to use us as a reference for your band. We loved
having you as part of our wedding celebration.
Best Wishes,
Dear
Rich,
Thank
you to you and the New York Edge for making our wedding day so special.
Everyone commented on how great the band was. The highlight for
us was seeing our 88 year old grandmother dance for the first time
in years!
Dear
Richard and New York Edge,
When people
say the band can make or break a party there is no doubt
it's true. You guys were amazing!
Everyone danced the night away. What a blast we all had!
I
had several friends and family tell me you're the best band they've
ever heard. You guys really rocked.
Thanks so much for making our special day such a spectacular one.
As John and I throw parties in the future fully expect to hear from
us. I can see why the band is flown to parties. Please add this
to your book with our wholeheared recommendation.
Rich,
Just a quick note to thank you and the band for making May 21st
a wonderful memory!
We received our proofs recently and as we look through them, all
we see is people dancing, laughing and having a great time. Certainly
your choice of music and talent made it all happen! Thanks again!
Kindest Regards,

Museum
Dear
Rich,
About
a week prior to our wedding day, you gave us a piece of advice
that we truly wanted to heed once the celebration begins,
its impossible to control everything... so why not just kick back
and enjoy the party?
While
skeptics warn against indulging in such pleasure at ones
own wedding, we were determined to stand our ground and have a
good time. Little did we realize that we had fallen under the
fantastical powers of New York Edge; enjoyment was inevitable.
For not only are you a wonderful group of talented, soulful musicians,
you are readers and seekers of energy. Your ability to monitor
the crowd and channel the right vibe when and where
it was needed, guaranteed hours of non-stop fun (a crucial element
when you set out to blow skeptics off the bandstand).
We
had a blast. Friends and family raved. Your good time
advice was obviously contagious.
Thank
you.
Kindly
pardon us for this incredibly belated letter. Though we could
easily excuse ourselves by saying that its taken us over
seven months to recuperate from an exhausting night of dancing!
You
made a special memory all the more memorable. We wont forget
you for that.
Warmest
regards,
Robyn
and Andrew Newberg

Dear

Jim and I want to thank you for making our wedding such a success.
Weve heard the same statement from so many of our guests
ours was the BEST wedding they have ever attended, and we
think the band was a HUGE part of that.
Since our wedding day several people have asked for your name
we would happily recommend you to anyone! You were right when you
told me when we first met to just trust you. You know what you are
doing, and it really showed!
Again, thank you for doing such a spectacular job and please
keep our name and (new) number for a reference. I will happily let
all the other brides know that they can put their trust in your
hands to make their wedding reception perfect!

I

dancing. I never wanted anyone sitting down and you guys sure
made sure that no one did. Everyone raved about the band.
You
guys were truly a lot of fun and definitely know how to keep a
crowd moving. I always heard that the bride and groom never get
to dance at their own wedding and I am soo happy that that wasnŐt
the case with us. I dont think I wanted to stop dancing
nor did my guests Ń GREAT JOB. I hope we get to see you
at another affair soon or else I will have to throw another party...

We
wanted to send you a letter to thank you again for the terrific
work that the New York Edge Orchestra did at our wedding in October.
We
just saw many of our family members over the holidays, and they
were all still talking about what a great band we had. I know
that between songs to learn, names to remember and announcements
to make, we gave you guys a lot to handle. But you ensured that
everything ran so smoothly that it allowed us to just relax and
enjoy the music and everything else about our day.
Our
goal was for everyone to be up dancing all evening. Thanks to
the bands energy and enthusiasm, you made that a reality
and gave us a party that people will be talking about for a long
time.
Thanks
again for everything, and please feel free to use us as a reference

Dear
Rich,
We wanted to write a short note to you expressing our thanks for
you superb performance at our wedding in September.We
could not have been any more pleased with everything you did.
The
band was excellent (we are so glad you convinced us to take the
extra horn!) You were able to gauge the audience for what type
of music to perform while adhering to our preferences so that
everyone was dancing and having a great time. You were able to
lead our reception through the requisite toasts, dances and traditions
smoothly. But what was most indicative of your expertise and professionalism
was the way you were able to handle and mediate the unexpected
surprises which even we were unprepared for (ie. the Korean foot-whipping
ritual).
We are extremely grateful to you for all of your services, and
we re still receiving compliments from our guests about
the quality of your music and the charming personalities of the
band as a whole, as well as of each individual band member.
Our wedding would not have been the same without New York Edge
there to help us celebrate one of the happiest moments of our
lives, and if we were to do it all over again, the only change
we would make would be to have you there for longer!
In fact, perhaps we can book you for our 25th anniversary! We
hope so!
Thanks
again for making our wedding day so special. We had a WONDERFUL
time, as did all of our guests thanks to you.
If
you would like us to give a personal recommendation of you band
to any of your clients, please feel free to give us a call. We
would be more than happy to do so.
Very
truly yours,

Dear
Rich and All,
I
know its has beena a long time since the wedding, but life has been
so hectic that we are just getting around to finishing off our thank
you notes!
We
just wanted to express our extreme gratitude for all you did for
us during our big celebration! We have no complaints about anything,
only glowing praise! All of our guests commented on how great you
were and how much they enjoyed the evening. Even the people in charge
of the Nittany Lion Inn said they had never had a band as good for
any event ever!
We
can't thank you enough for traveling all the way to State College
to play for us. When we met with you and heard your sound we knew
that you were the band for us, and we were so glad that we were
able to work out a weay to have you for our party!
You
played a great selection of music, and your control over the flow
of the party was masterful! Everytime the dance floor opened it
was packed, and everyone was having the time of their lives! It
was the most precious day of our lives and I know that Amy and I
both agree that you and the incredible reception that you engineered
for us was a big reason for that.
Please
feel free to use this as a letter of glowing recommendation and
feel free to use us a reference fro the band! We will be happy to
talk to anyone considering using New York Edge and thank you again
from the bottom of our hearts for everything! You're the best!
Sincerely,

Dear
Rich and Shanti,
Thank
you so much for your incredible talent, energy and music! You set
the stage for a wonderful evening. Everyone was on the dance floor
the moment you started and stayed on until the very end. From Etta
James to 70s Funk
you absolutely rocked the house, or
shall I say the tent!
We had
such and incredible time at our own wedding! All our guests keep on
telling us you are the best band they have ever heard at a wedding.
Of course we agree. We just loved how you came into the crowd and
sand and danced with us.
Enclosed
are some amazing photos, Shanti and Louis Armstrong rocking
with the girls. So great we had to send you the whole series. And
Rich with your arms in the air. We love that shot.
Tony

day. Thank you for being so very professional and such a a pleasure
to work with.

Thank
you so much for providing wonderful entertainment at our wedding.
You and the other members of the band were most impressive, and we
could not have asked for better music on our special day. Our guests
truly enjoyed the wide array of songs, and as you saw, danced the
night away.
We

Dear
Rich,
We wanted
to let you know what a success you helped make our wedding.
Our
guests absolutely loved your performance and so did we.
You
made our reception a non-stop dance party.Your
band set a tone of hip sophistication that was exactly what we wanted
at our wedding.
You
really played to the crowd and as a result people felt comfortable
dancing. People told us again and again how much they loved the musicians
interactions with the dancers on the floor.
Although
we expected it, we were still still surprised and impressed to hear
how well you were all able to cover such a a diverse range of music:
contemporary, klezmer, swing, rock, funk and standards. The cocktail
and ceremony music also worked to compliment the occasion.
Thank
you for everything. We will certainly recommend you to all of our
friends.
Sincerely,
Noemi and Barry
