City Rhythm Band: Live Wedding Band in Philadelphia

Bluestone Country Club: Leah and Robert Goldberg – December 11, 2022

We heard this band at a friend's wedding and absolutely loved them. Booking and payment were both online and very easy to complete. The band had an expansive repertoire and still took our requests. They played everything we wanted and nothing we didn't. The band leader was incredibly responsive via email and walked through all of our entertainment needs step by step. On the day of the wedding, all of our guests raved about the band, including two guests who are professional musicians themselves. I would recommend this band to anyone who wants an energetic, engaging, and fun band for their wedding.

Drumore Estate: Madalyn and Zachary Polites – September 3, 2022

The variety of music was great plenty of good music for the young and old. The Sinatra selections were amazing. We loved the processional ensembles prior and during the ceremony and during the cocktail hour. The band kept things moving along during the reception and engaged the guests. I would definitely recommend and hire the band again. Thank you for making our daughter's day and a wonderful experience.

Greenville Country Club: Cara and Jack Wehmeyer – August 13, 2022

Philadelphia Cricket Club: Chelsea and Zach Spillner – July 15, 2022

We had Big City Rhythm and they were fabulous. They played a variety of songs and genres there were multiple singers and everyone in the band was good. Everyone at the wedding was dancing and they all said how great this band was. We were so happy they really made the wedding a blast!

Radisson Lackawanna Station Hotel: Erin and Michael Corgan – July 2, 2022

Bartram’s Garden’s: Katherine and Stephen Cornely – June 11, 2022

You guys were phenomenal! Beyond Kate & I’s imagination! You guys played beautiful music during the ceremony, kept the energy up during the reception, and had my buddy completely shirtless by the end of the night! We had such a great time and are so appreciative of all the hard work you guys put in for our big day! Thanks again so much! You were all phenomenal!

- Steve (Groom)

Hilton Penns Landing: Rebecca and Josh Minardi – May 29, 2022

City Rhythm made our wedding!! After one conversation with Pete, the band leader, we felt completely understood and had an idea of how the entire wedding reception would go- and it went that way the day of. Each vocalist and musician brings something authentically their own and also fits perfectly into the group dynamic! It’s beautiful to see and hear.

- Rebecca (Bride) 

The Phoenixville Foundry: Cassidy and TJ Young – September 25, 2021

City Rhythm was absolutely incredible! We had the pleasure of having them perform our ceremony and reception music in September. Not only do they have amazing talent from vocals to instrumentals, but they were fun and kept all of our guests on the dance floor. Booking was easy as well - Paul answered all questions that we had and made great suggestions when we weren't sure what we wanted. They have a huge song list AND can learn new songs as well. They even learned a grateful dead song for my father daughter dance and did an amazing job. I highly suggest hiring City Rhythm for your wedding - you wont be disappointed!

- Cassidy (Bride)

 

Greenville Country Club: Julie and Nicholas Vukmer – September 24, 2021

Amazing band! City Rhythm was exceptional! We danced to Frank Sinatra for our first dance and thought it was a recording of Frank it was so good. They played everything we wanted them to, and nothing we didn't want. The dance floor was packed the ENTIRE night! Definitely recommend!
- Julie (Bride)

The Union League of Philadelphia: Molly and Dante Cutrona – September 5, 2021

City Rhythm was absolutely unreal! One of my wedding guests shared with us that now they knew the difference between a wedding band and a good wedding band. Can't recommend them enough.

- Molly (Bride)

The Merion: Alexa and Dante Oriente – July 31, 2021

Pete and the band were fantastic! They were very responsive and incorporated everything we wanted into our day. The biggest ask was to ensure they were very engaging with the crowd and feed off their energy...they did that and then some!!!

- Alexa (Bride)

Lancaster Country Club: Alexandra and Anthony Campanile – June 26, 2021

City Rhythm was exceptional! Our band leader Pete was accessible and incredibly helpful in planning our event prior to the wedding. The band was incredible during cocktail hour and our reception. They played beautiful music throughout our dinner time and then got everyone up on the dance floor all night after dinner. The songs they played for our entrance, cake cutting and first dance/parent dances were incredible. I could not have picked a better band. They also were so fun to listen to online prior to booking!

- Alexandra (Bride)

The Estate at Farrington Lake: Jessica and Reuben Rozenbaum – May 30, 2021

- Eli Kahn (Rabbi) 

Greenville Country Club: Paige and Max Stutman – May 22, 2021

Pete and the guys were awesome Saturday night!  They helped produce an epic night and I would highly recommend these guys!  Wedding guests were singing their praises all night and the next day!

Ballroom at Ellis Preserve: Renee and Ted Rhinehart – December 20, 2019

Best party band! City Rhythm made my wedding so memorable! From start to finish - I knew the dance floor would be full and it was! I am a wedding planner myself and highly recommend this band. The variety of songs they play is incredible and the band leader Pete is a true professional!

- Renee (Bride)

Ridgeland Mansion: Alessandra and Alexander Robertson – October 13, 2019

Pete Spina and City Rhythm did such an amazing job at our wedding. They set the tone of the entire wedding from the ceremony to the reception. They were able to transition seamlessly from a trio during the ceremony to Italian classics during the cocktail hour to an energetic variety for the reception. They accommodated every request. They gave the entire event such amazing energy. We continue to get compliments from the guests about the band. Everyone had an amazing time, and I credit so much of that to City Rhythm. I can't recommend them enough. Thank you so much!!

- Alessandra (Bride)

Marriott at Penn Square: Christmas In July – July 20, 2019

Just wanted to write and say THANK YOU for an amazing evening! My host duties pulled me away from the event at the end and I did not have a chance to thank you all or say goodbye. Nothing but rave reviews! Your fellow singers were just amazing! I have never seen this group get up and dance AND form a conga line at a convention. I posted a link to your website on our main Glow Facebook page tonight. There are 27,000 people on that page, so it should get you some business!

- Craig (The Golden Glow of Christmas Past)

Philadelphia Cricket Club: Caroline and Matthew Barry – June 28, 2019

Talented and diverse band that had EVERYONE dancing. Pete and City Rhythm were amazing to work with. They took the time to understand what me and my wife's musical tastes are, and used their experience to weave in music that would appeal to everyone at the wedding. They are incredibly diverse and talented. They had literally everyone from friends to aunts, uncles, and grandparents on the dance floor the entire night. They were such an important part of our night and really delivered an amazing experience for me, my wife, and all of our guests. We planned our wedding from afar and went of the YouTube videos as our guide as we did not get the chance to see them in person beforehand. They wound up being even better than the videos online! I would highly recommend City Rhythm to anyone looking to make great music a focal point of their wedding. Pete, the band leader, was great to work and really professional in planning out the day to provide continuous music and MC the reception.

- Caroline (Bride)

The Anthony Wayne House – Nicole and Christopher Saveanu – June 8, 2019

Easy to work with. Lots of Compliments from Guests! We had City Rhythm, a BVTLive! Band, perform at our wedding. They were a huge hit with guests and we got lots of compliments on them afterwards. It was so easy to work with them to customize things we wanted to do for our ceremony (we had a family member sing and they worked with her to learn the music for her song). I would definitely recommend them.

- Nicole (Bride)

The Pendry: Alexandra and Michael Guerriere – June 1, 2019

City Rhythm entertained every guest at our wedding, from grandparents all the way to our youngest guests. They were dynamic and fun throughout the night and were the highlight of our wedding.

- Alexandra (Bride)

The Cosmos Club: Stephanie and Bill Padula – May 25, 2019

City Rhythm Orchestra is the best band ever! Not just for a wedding but any occasion. They played a perfect mix of oldies and new popular music for our big day. Wish we could do it again. Steve R. Nailed the Frank Sinatra tunes, so make sure you ask for that.

- Bill (Groom)

Free Library: Aimee and Matt Yogg – September 22, 2018

I never got a chance to thank you on Saturday, but the band was beyond incredible!  From the ceremony to the cocktail hour to the reception - they could not have done a more perfect job.  Matt and I are so thrilled - your team really exceeded our wildest expectations.

Thank you for making our wedding day truly perfect,

- Aimee & Matt (Bride and Groom)

Woodcrest Country Club: Jill and Paul Cynewski – June 30, 2018

City Rhythm was wonderful. They played a wide variety of music and kept our guests dancing all night!... It all went too fast and we wanted more!!!!

Private Residence: Julianna Wood – June 23, 2018

The party was absolutely fabulous! The band was on time, very pleasant, played great music and everyone had a great time. Many people commented that they had actually seen the band perform at some Frank Sinatra-type event and complimented them quite a bit.

Thanks for all your help to make my party such a success!!

Cheers,
- Julianna

Horticultural Center: Emily and Angelo Camano – May 5, 2018

City Rhythm is THE BEST!!! As a bride, you can be completely hands-off when you hire this band. They know what they're doing, and they will perform above and beyond your expectations. They stick to the timeline given as far as MC'ing the reception, they play ALL types of music for any generation, and they remember all of your requests! We requested specific songs not only be played, but be played at a certain time, and City Rhythm 100% complied. We had a non-traditional ceremony and wanted it to have a fun atmosphere, so the groom and groomsmen walked down the aisle to City Rhythm playing the instrumental version of Eminem's "Lose Yourself". It was an amazing crowd pleaser and one of the most memorable aspects of our wedding. City Rhythm completely nailed it and played beautifully! We had last minute changes to our first dance songs and groom/mother song. Last minute as in I called them 48 hours before to request the change. It required the band to learn 3 new songs, and we weren't sure if they'd be able to make it happen, but they totally did!! I cannot say enough great things about City Rhythm. If you choose them for your wedding, you do not need to worry at all about the music. They have it covered! They know what they're doing!

- Emily (Bride)
