What to Expect
If you're looking for your standard, run-of-the-mill wedding band struggling through the latest top-40 song and sounding somewhat tired and innocuous, the Love Revival Orchestra is not for you. But if you're looking for an exciting, young act with unparalleled energy - an act that is not just "going through the motions" but feels genuine joy and love entertaining and playing music, look no further.
The Love Revival Orchestra is happy to work with you to arrange ANY song in ANY style you can think of, but we specialize in Classic Rock from Billy Joel to the Beatles to Elton John, the Soul of Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin and Otis Redding, feel-good motown and New Orleans party music that comes complete with parades. We also feature a vast array of very accessible original compositions guaranteed to get the party moving like no other.
We are a full service entertainment concept - we can provide classical guitar, piano or string quartet for your ceremony, fantastic original jazz quartet, quintet, etc. or Dixieland band for your cocktail hour. Our core band for your reception always starts at 10 pieces, including horn section and back-up singers and can go up from there. We can also provide DJ services in addition to the band, so you absolutely cannot lose.
Our attention to detail will guarantee a special day with spectacular memories that will last you a lifetime. Enjoy yourself and leave the work to us!

Testimonials
One word: EPIC. The Love Revival Orchestra are simply amazing musicians and revolutionary merry-makers. Jennie and I would like to thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for playing your hearts out and making our wedding the most magical evening of our lives. They always say that the band makes the party and they aren't kidding! It's been exactly one month now since our wedding (I'm ashamed it has taken me this long to write this) and people are still talking about our wedding and how incredible the band was. My wife's boss, who is a bit of a music snob, told her that he doesn't ever dance at weddings but that he never left the dance floor during ours. He and many others have told us that you were the best wedding band they have ever seen. I think that it's because you guys are not a "wedding band," but an extremely tight, disciplined, original, and FUN band that has their own sound and can infuse any song, whether an original or a cover, with passion, love, and joy.
Besides being accomplished musicians, you guys also brought so much professionalism to the table, always willing to work with us on special requests (including learning a waltz that my wife wrote when she w
– Eli and Jennie M.
The Love Revival Orchestra is the quintessential wedding band - more fun and energy than you can imagine and accessible to all ages.
– Karen Auster, President, Auster Events NYC
Big repertoire, great attitude, perfect vibe for a wedding or celebration of any type really...
– Joanne and Bentley W. (Bride and Groom)
The Love Revival turned our special day into something truly extraordinary - if you're looking for an entertainment package that will set your wedding apart from all others, you've found it right here!
– Jeff and Nikki M. (Bride and Groom)
The Love Revival Orchestra was an absolute highlight of our wedding celebration. Their funky tunes only added levity, fun and celebration to the party. We had them lead our guests from the beach, where we wedded, to our reception hall, where the band continued to inspire our guests in dance and song. I would highly recommend this band to anyone seeking a tight band who are also highly professional and fun.
– Sherr and Jon B. (Bride and Groom)
Many, many members said it was the best musical act we’ve ever had - It’s the first time I can remember that I did not hear a single complaint, and that’s saying something...
– Joanne Goldberg, Entertainment Chair, Muttontown Country Club
The band was awesome, everyone loved their parade from the beach and their performance during the reception. Everyone was very professional and super helpful...
– Christina Gshwandtner, Fete Weddings & Events
