They Made Our Wedding Unforgettable!!!!!!!
Absolutely amazing — there are truly no words to capture how talented, professional, and genuine The Plus One’s Band are. We had the trio of Gerald, Jan, and Katie, and each of them was outstanding. From the very beginning, communication was seamless and professional, and on the wedding day they were not only exceptional musicians but also wonderful people who fit right in with our celebration. They brought incredible energy and artistry, performing our song list beautifully while also going above and beyond by accommodating guest requests on the spot. The songs they learned specifically for us were performed so perfectly, many of our guests said they sounded even better than the originals. At one point, they even had the entire venue singing along — an unforgettable moment that we’ll cherish forever. Their talent, professionalism, and warmth created such a joyful atmosphere, and we feel so grateful to have had them be a part of our day. We recommend The Plus One’s Band without hesitation to anyone seeking extraordinary musicians who will make their event truly unforgettable.
A gem!
We hired Gerald and The Plus Ones for our ceremony and reception music at Wave Hill in the Bronx, and they were fantastic! Gerald was communicative, warm, flexible, and quick to learn and beautifully perform our requested songs. (a friend came flying over on the dance floor at one point shouting "they're singing Waxahatchee???!!!") Gerald also jumped in day of for some gentle emceeing to introduce our nervous toast making family members, and just generally put everyone at ease and set a great tone for the evening. Highly recommend, and thank you, Gerald!
Gerald Edwards for solo singing guitarist
We hired Gerald as a single singing guitarist for our small (30 person) wedding in Brooklyn after finding him online. He completely over-delivered in terms of expectations. Gerald is punctual, kind, thoughtful, and very prepared. He offered to learn 5 new songs for our package and delivered on all of them flawlessly. He played acoustic guitar for the ceremony and sang/played guitar for cocktail hour, dinner, and the reception after dinner. Everyone at the wedding was incredibly impressed by his talent and he had several nice conversations with the guests in between songs. Gerald elevated our special night in many ways and we were so pleased to have him with us. We 1000% recommend Gerald for whatever your musical needs may be.
The BEST plus ones
The Plus Ones NYC were an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, Gerald’s communication was friendly, responsive, and professional. He is clearly passionate about his craft and dedicated to making our day special. The trio was incredibly talented and experienced, with Gerald leading the ceremony music and the trio keeping our reception going all night. Everyone was complimenting their performance - they truly completed the vibe we were going for and had an amazing song list that they were even willing to expand on for us. We couldn't have asked for a better band to make our wedding day feel like a movie. Highly recommend The Plus Ones NYC!
