Engela and John Paul
Killashee House HotelDear John and 52nd Street,
We are just back from our honeymoon and just want to use this opportunity to thank you for making our wedding reception extra special and so much fun. Honestly, we could not have asked for a better band on the night. You guys were outstanding! Everyone at the wedding kept saying how brilliant you guys were. You managed to get everyone out on the dance floor, and we all had such a great night.
Thank you so much, we would highly recommend 52nd Street, the best wedding band you could ask for. Ye are just brilliant!

Faithlegg Hotel, WaterfordAbsolutely brilliant night with 52nd Street on 3 May in Faithlegg House for our wedding. Kept the dance floor full all night, a class act. John was a pleasure to deal with and they were excellent from start to finish, John on the piano for the reception drinks and into the small hours of the morning with the band. Would absolutely recommend 52nd Street to anyone. 10/10.

Clonmel Park HotelMyself and my wife booked 52nd street for our wedding on the 22nd of June. From the moment we booked them, to the day of our wedding John and the band were so easy to deal with, and always helped us with any queries. We asked them to do the drinks reception and DJ as well as the band.
The drinks reception was performed on a grand piano by John, and our guests were very impressed and complimented him highly. Then the band were amazing. They were set up and ready to go almost immediately, and all songs sounded brilliant, and they had everyone on the floor dancing with the music.
The DJ was also brilliant and allowed requests, he had everyone enjoying themselves. 52nd Street were brilliant from start to finish, and we would 100% recommend them.

Talbot Hotel Carlow``52nd Street played at our wedding in the Talbot Hotel Carlow in December 2016. From the start it was clear that John wanted to make sure that we had the best night possible. These guys don’t just turn up and play, they take the time to get to know you and the guests at your event, and they tailor their set list to your personal preferences while keeping an eye on what’s working with the crowd. The band read our wedding guests very well and played a wide range of tunes for all ages, everything from old time waltzes to present day chart toppers. The floor never emptied all night. Some dying for a sit down or a bar break kept hearing tunes they loved and danced for song after song after song. We couldn’t have asked for better! Thanks a million to John and all the guys in 52nd Street for making our special day even more special``.
Laura and Patrick
River Court Hotel KilkennyJohn, thank you so much for the fabulous job, the whole night was brilliant, and for making our big day so amazing! We were so happy to see the dance floor full for the whole night and that was all down to you and your fabulous band.
Everyone has been speaking so highly of ye. We would recommend you to everyone we meet. From attending the showcase last year to the last song on Friday night you were a pleasure to work with.
Thank you so much!!!!

Sarah and Kevin
Bellingham CastleWe booked 52nd Street wedding band for our wedding on the 6th of July. Where do I start. From the minute they started to play until the end of the night the dance floor was packed. They played floor fillers all night and had young and old up dancing non-stop. Cannot recommend these guys enough. John is so personable and made it a very easy process. We are still getting guests asking who the band were as they were so good. Thank you so much 52nd Street.
Adele and Denis
Hotel MinellaWe booked 52nd Street Wedding Band for our wedding on 20th July after meeting John and his band about 12 months ago. We were so impressed with their style of music and professionalism that we decided to book the complete package of Ceremony music, pre reception music, the band for the night and the DJ. John was a pleasure to work with, he was always ready to take a phone call or give advice on songs and music, he gave me a song list and from here I found my perfect entrance song which John played and sang beautifully in the church. The music at the hotel was absolutely amazing and kept all the guests entertained throughout the afternoon. The 5 piece band that we went for included the sax player and John was just so helpful in making sure we had the perfect mix of music to suit our guests, the band included everything from pop, to trad to country, everything we asked for, nothing was a problem. The band were lively and great fun and interacted with the children who danced their socks off all night long. Everybody commented on how great the band was and also the DJ who was brilliant and even sent around request cards to the tables. We are delighted we chose 52nd Street as our wedding band and cannot recommend them highly enough.
Sinéad & Kevin
Palmerstown Manor HouseTo John and all the guys in 52nd Street...

Mary Claire and Jason
Palmerstown Manor HouseExcellent band and a pleasure to deal with. Two testimonies to how good 52nd Street were - I (bride) spent the entire night on the dance floor and the consistent comments the next day from guests were how good the band were. John was most obliging to incorporate some of our guests into the entertainment - a singer, an Irish dancer and a little girl ``playing`` an inflatable saxophone. John took the time to get to know us and the guests in advance which made me so comfortable to hand over the reins to him.
Gráinne and Andrew
Seafield Hotel & Spa“Hi John, We just wanted to say thank you so much to you and the rest of the band for helping to make our day so special. More so than any other feature of the day, our guests were especially impressed by the band. The dance floor was full for the whole night with guests of all ages and musical tastes. By taking some time in advance of the big day to get to know a little bit about both our families, you really added a personal touch to the performance on the night. The fact that you were always on hand in advance of the big day to answer any queries or concerns also made sure that the process was completely stress free.
We would certainly recommend 52nd Street to anyone looking for the perfect wedding band.
Thanks again and lots of love

Barberstown CastleHi John and 52nd Street Band
A big thank you for a great night on the 3rd of December in Barberstown. All of our family and friends were really impressed with our lovely Piano Man!, they could have stayed listening to you for the night. Then the band kept them dancing all night long!! We couldn't have asked for a better wedding band, keeping the party going and also the bit of messing - even my Irish Dancing!.
To Brian the DJ, thanks for getting the lads onto the dance floor and keeping them there, no small achievement. We had a brilliant night.
Thanks again,
Have a great 2017,

Annebrook HouseWe met John from 52nd Street Wedding Band when planning our wedding. From the outset we found John and the band to be extremely professional and a band with geniune musical talent and backgrounds. Any request we had was always met with great positivity and flexibility. On our wedding day our speeches ran rather late! The band were incredible fast at setting up and soon had everybody (All ages) in the room dancing into the early morning hours. The feedback from our guests was unbelievable and people were looking for the bands details from us. John Thank You so much for everything, you made it all so easy for us.
Katrina and Liam
Moyvalley HotelWe had the pleasure of having 52nd Street play at our wedding and they were fantastic, never been to a wedding before where the dance floor was full all night. John went to the extra effort of learning a song for us that we wanted for our first dance and they did it beautifully. Everyone mentioned how much they enjoyed the band and we would definitely recommend them (plus saxophone) to anyone looking for an amazing night!
Donna and Keith
Westgrove HotelWe had the pleasure of having 52nd Street at our wedding, and wow, everyone just loved them. I still have people telling me what a great night they had. The music was brilliant and had everyone up on the dance floor all night. Thank you again, I haven’t danced that much ever!

Dunboyne CastleJust a note to thank you so very much for the wonderful music you and your band provided for our wedding reception on the 19th of July in Dunboyne Castle. Your attention to detail, choices of songs and engagement with our guests were all second to none.
As you may remember we had a huge musical crowd and we’d like to thank you for helping us achieve all that we had hoped for with our traditional music section before the main band started.
All our guests are still talking about how amazing the music was, thank you most sincerely!

Ratsallagh HouseWhen I ask people what the highlight out of our wedding day was...the majority of comments I hear back are...THE BAND WAS AMAZING... I remember the night myself and Shane went to 52nd Street's Showcase in The Keadeen. We were both bopping in our seats and we just knew then that we had to have them for our wedding. We weren't wrong. The dance floor was full all night. John made it so personal and made sure he knew the names to call on....He had worked a lot with Shane behind the scenes on a few numbers and it went down great.
I would highly recommend 52nd Street. Along with the band, Brian Brett (DJ) played into the wee hours of the morning. There wasn't a song he didn't have.
John puts his heart and soul into his music and it really comes across. He genuinely looks like he is enjoying himself all night and you can see he just loves what he does... Well John, you made a bride and groom very happy that night...and for that, we are forever thankful.
And of course I couldn't go with out mentioning Johns amazing talented wife Pauline Forde who created my bouquet (Pauline Forde Heirloom bouquet)
Such a talented family
Lots of Love

Ashley Park NenaghJohn - It is hard to believe that it is 4 weeks ago today that we had our big day in Ashley Park. We want to acknowledge 52 Street's contribution to what was a fantastic and memorable occasion. As expected the Band and DJ were just superb, bringing a superior level of involvement, excitement and happiness to all our guests many of whom commented since about the great night they had. The variety of songs, the mixture of sets ensured the wide range of age groups were all catered for. Also the overall sound was of a level to allow conversation take place whilst the dancers had a great night on the dance floor.
Teresa and I wish you and the lads much success in the future and we would like to once again thank you most sincerely for the brilliant night you provided on our wedding evening.

Ashley Park NenaghJohn - It is hard to believe that it is 4 weeks ago today that we had our big day in Ashley Park. We want to acknowledge 52 Street's contribution to what was a fantastic and memorable occasion. As expected, the Band and DJ were just superb, bringing a superior level of involvement, excitement and happiness to all our guests many of whom commented since about the great night they had. The variety of songs, the mixture of sets ensured the wide range of age groups were all catered for. Also the overall sound was of a level to allow conversation take place whilst the dancers had a great night on the dance floor.
Teresa and I wish you and the lads much success in the future and we would like to once again thank you most sincerely for the brilliant night you provided on our wedding evening.

Talbot Hotel Carlow``52nd Street played at our wedding in the Talbot Hotel Carlow in December. From the start it was clear that John wanted to make sure that we had the best night possible. These guys don’t just turn up and play, they take the time to get to know you and the guests at your event, and they tailor their set list to your personal preferences while keeping an eye on what’s working with the crowd. The band read our wedding guests very well and played a wide range of tunes for all ages, everything from old time waltzes to present day chart toppers. The floor never emptied all night. Some dying for a sit down or a bar break kept hearing tunes they loved and danced for song after song after song. We couldn’t have asked for better! Thanks a million to John and all the guys in 52nd Street for making our special day even more special``.

Clonmel Park HotelMyself and my wife booked 52nd street for our wedding on the 22nd of June. From the moment we booked them, to the day of our wedding John and the band were so easy to deal with, and always helped us with any queries. We asked them to do the drinks reception and DJ as well as the band.
The drinks reception was performed on a grand piano by John, and our guests were very impressed and complimented him highly. Then the band were amazing. They were set up and ready to go almost immediately, and all songs sounded brilliant, and they had everyone on the floor dancing with the music.
The DJ was also brilliant and allowed requests, he had everyone enjoying themselves. 52nd Street were brilliant from start to finish, and we would 100% recommend them.

Clanard Court HotelHi John
A big thank you to yourself and the band for performing at our wedding in the Clanard Court. From the drinks reception on arrival with yourself on the piano to the night time entertainment with the band everybody had a fantastic time. People are still commenting on what a great time they had, in particular the night. We are so grateful that you kept the dance floor hopping for the night! As you know young and all were dancing all night long and the kids had such a good time. Our nephews were disappointed when it was all over.... that's how much they enjoyed themselves!!!
We will certainly be recommending 52nd street to anybody who asks.
Again thanks for helping making our big day so enjoyable 🙂 It really was the best day.

Seafield Hotel & SpaHi John, We just wanted to say thank you so much to you and the rest of the band for helping to make our day so special. More so than any other feature of the day, our guests were especially impressed by the band. The dance floor was full for the whole night with guests of all ages and musical tastes. By taking some time in advance of the big day to get to know a little bit about both our families, you really added a personal touch to the performance on the night. The fact that you were always on hand in advance of the big day to answer any queries or concerns also made sure that the process was completely stress free.
We would certainly recommend 52nd Street to anyone looking for the perfect wedding band.
Thanks again and lots of love

Palmerstown Manor HouseExcellent band and a pleasure to deal with. Two testimonies to how good 52nd Street were - I (bride) spent the entire night on the dance floor and the consistent comments the next day from guests were how good the band were. John was most obliging to incorporate some of our guests into the entertainment - a singer, an Irish dancer and a little girl ``playing`` an inflatable saxophone. John took the time to get to know us and the guests in advance which made me so comfortable to hand over the reins to him.
Thank you!
Thank you!

Barberstown CastleHi John and 52nd Street Band
A big thank you for a great night on the 3rd of December in Barberstown. All of our family and friends were really impressed with our lovely Piano Man!, they could have stayed listening to you for the night. Then the band kept them dancing all night long!! We couldn't have asked for a better wedding band, keeping the party going and also the bit of messing - even my Irish Dancing!.
To Brian the DJ, thanks for getting the lads onto the dance floor and keeping them there, no small achievement. We had a brilliant night.

Annebrook HouseWe met John from 52nd Street Wedding Band when planning our wedding. From the outset we found John and the band to be extremely professional and a band with genuine musical talent and backgrounds. Any request we had was always met with great positivity and flexibility. On our wedding day our speeches ran rather late! The band were incredible fast at setting up and soon had everybody (All ages) in the room dancing into the early morning hours. The feedback from our guests was unbelievable and people were looking for the bands details from us. John Thank You so much for everything, you made it all so easy for us.

Moyvalley HotelWe had the pleasure of having 52nd Street play at our wedding and they were fantastic, never been to a wedding before where the dance floor was full all night. John went to the extra effort of learning a song for us that we wanted for our first dance and they did it beautifully. Everyone mentioned how much they enjoyed the band and we would definitely recommend them (plus saxophone) to anyone looking for an amazing night!
