"We (parents of the bride) looked at over 15 bands out of Philadelphia, Baltimore, DC, and Virginia and decided Central City Orchestra was our best option. We consider ourselves to be dance music nuts and we are! Their musicians are very talented not only in their videos but in person....they sound and look great! They can play a wide range of music pleasing to most that kept the dance floor full all night.

Katie was very professional and helpful with planning the wedding reception. Even more valuable were her services at the reception to make sure the entire event stayed on plan which significantly relieved the parents of the bride from the details and enabled them to enjoy the evening. 

 

So many of our guests told us how great the band was and how they had a great time at the reception. We were so impressed with Central City Orchestra that we hired them again for our youngest daughter's wedding to be held in May 2023 without hesitation!!

 

We highly recommend Central City Orchestra for your wedding or other special event!"

"Katie & her team played a huge role in making our wedding day absolutely perfect. To start, Katie was professional and highly communicative.

 

She set up a call with us prior to our wedding to discuss logistics and put aside an hour of her time to ensure that the day would run smoothly. She also communicated with our wedding coordinator months before our wedding to discuss the size of the space and options for ceremonial and cocktail music.

 

When our venue did not allow for amps at cocktail hour, Katie quickly problem solved and found an option that would work. The guitarist was amazing!

 

Finally, on the day of the wedding, Katie and her team exceeded all expectations we had for a band. They played all night and had guests on the dance floor the entire evening. 

 

We were truly blown away by the effort CCO put in to make our day so special! Would HIGHLY recommend to other brides & grooms!"

"If you want to have the best wedding EVER, hire Central City Orchestra! We got married this past September on the Eastern Shore and I was very picky when it came to who I hired for vendors.

 

Not only did CCO perform so well but they exceeded every high expectation I had. They were organized and listened to everything I wanted. Katie even met me and some other vendors at our venue... She also called me a week before the wedding to finalize everything and go over any last minute details. On the day of, and I can't emphasize this enough, they were INCREDIBLE. I wish I could give them 10 stars, honestly.

 

Every guest was dancing and singing along during our reception and it made for the perfect night. They truly made our wedding perfect and were hands down one of the best vendors.

 

If I have not already made this clear, hire these guys! CCO are upbeat, fun, lively, and can play a killer version of "Don't Stop Me Now" by Queen. Love you guys and thank you for everything!"

"My wife and I could not have been happier with CCO!  They were simply phenomenal from start to finish during our entire wedding process.  


From the first time we spoke to them over the phone, they were professional, kind, knowledgeable, and most importantly... they just wanted to make our day exactly how we wanted it. 

 

They have everything down to a science during the planning process and even went out of their way to drive hours to see our wedding venue months before the wedding to make sure the setup was perfect.   

 

When the wedding day came along, Katie was immaculate in the way she handled guests, introductions, and the entire night.  The 10-piece band played their hearts out from the cocktail hour, through the reception, and were kind enough to even congratulate us individually once the night had come to a close.   

 

If you're looking for a band, Central City Orchestra comes with our highest praises possible.  Cheers!"

"Just want to thank Katie and her CCO crew for helping to make our daughter's wedding so special.

 

They were the absolute life of the party! Their musicianship is amazing. Their song choices are fantastic - perfect for our crowd... and they worked hard to make it that way.

 

They come across with such positivity and personality - not the typical generic band, just a total class act.

 

We loved the horn section, we loved the voices, we loved how they kept everyone dancing the entire night. They were flexible and worked with us incredibly well to get everything in that we wanted.

 

Their horn section, guitarists, and singers came out onto the dance floor at one point and added to the excitement. Then we had an amazing New Orleans sparkler exit!

 

CCO was just absolutely the perfect! We can't recommend them enough!"
