Wedding Reviews & Testimonials

thankyou

The Royz Band has brought the music to life for hundreds of Toronto weddings

We have well over 200 testimonials and reviews from our past clients.  Each of these brides & grooms wanted to take the time to put in writing how happy they were with our music, our performance and our behind the scenes service.

We think their words speak for us better than we ever could.

We were thrilled

Polished, professional and seamless.  We were thrilled with every aspect of our contact with the Royz Band! Their warmth, approachability and professionalism early on truly put us at ease. But how all the little pieces came together into this smooth, fun, classy and creative "whole" was AMAZING!!! Many of our guests have told us ours was the best, most enjoyable wedding they have ever attended! The seamless way they incorporated all the elements; weaving the intros, dancing, presentations and speeches was masterful. Everyone loved this very creative approach. Somehow Heather and the band managed to give the evening its flow and shape while still keeping the spotlight on the people at the podium. Mostly for us, they made it easy, stress-free and so much FUN! They masterfully coordinated with our venue organizers so that the details were taken care of. Truly, our evening was everything we hoped it would be. If you're planning an event and want polished, knowledgeable professionals as well as a versatile, talented and entertaining band, contact Royz Band.

Our guests loved, loved, loved the band

I cannot thank Heather enough for all she did for us during the planning process and on the wedding day. Heather is not just a vocalist of the band, she truly is a god sent wedding planner. She helped us layout the plan for the wedding day and gave us some really good advice/pointers in terms of planning every aspect of out big day.

The wedding day couldn't have gone smoother. The band coordinated the entire schedule with our MC wonderfully. Everything went our way without a single glitch. Our guests loved, loved, loved the band. It's been over 3 months and we still get compliments on the music.

The band played an array of music that kept our guests on their feet from the time they stepped into the reception hall till the time we ended the event.

If you are planning a wedding and need to add a classy and elegant touch to your wedding, do not think twice about the Royz Band. You have reached the right place.

The dance floor was packed all night!

I have nothing but good things to say about the Royz Band. They were exceptional at our wedding. I would recommend them to anyone for any kind of event (not just weddings). Heather is a pleasure to deal with and she eliminated any concerns I had long before the wedding day. They played music throughout dinner which set the perfect mood - it was actually so good that people got up to dance between courses! For the dancing after dinner they did a great job of appealing to all ages - the dance floor was packed all night! I couldn't have asked for anything more. Thank you!

The Royz Band is phenomenal!

The Royz Band is phenomenal! They were very helpful and organized right from the beginning. Heather was full of ideas and suggestions that really helped us to plan out the flow of the ceremony and reception. For our ceremony, they learned two new songs that we really wanted to be played and they were beautiful! Our guests absolutely loved them and had so much fun! The band could really read our guests and played music that everyone would love, even including some traditional Polish songs. They are just amazing!

All the guests were impressed

We would like to express our deepest Thank-You for the Royz Band's help, patience and ideas during this past 1.5 yrs of planning. We cannot thank Heather enough for all the phone calls that we had over the last few months going over all the tiny little details regarding the timeline! Heather is very detail-oriented when it comes to planning and she made sure that everything was carefully looked after.

Everything went perfect during the wedding ceremony and reception. Please extend our Thanks to Andre and the sax player for learning how to play "A Thousand Years". The ceremony was very emotional for both of us and the guests.

You guys were amazing and all the guests were very impressed by the live band. Everyone had rave reviews about your versatility and the fact that you guys are able to play in both English and en francais. 🙂 The guests were all energized and involved during the whole dinner reception. We look forward to seeing you guys perform live at a future event. C&A

All our guests are still raving about the music

We used the Royz band for our wedding. They were incredible. Everybody danced the entire night even during dinner. All our guests are still raving about the music and how amazing our band was. They played everything from oldies for my parents friends to top 40. The dance floor was packed all night which was exactly what we wanted.

They were great to work with and made the planning so easy. I was really impressed with everything they did before the wedding. Heather spent a lot of time discussing ideas with us and organized a whole wedding day schedule for us that was just perfect. She was practically our personal wedding planner. I wasn’t expecting that so that was a huge bonus.

We had them play for our ceremony music and it was beautiful. They even learned a special song for me to walk up the aisle. Then they played jazz while we were having our pictures taken. During the dinner they got our guests dancing between speeches and Heather was also an awesome emcee and kept everything on track in a very fun way. Everyone loved her! I can’t say enough about them. They really are the best. We highly recommend them.

Absolutely fantastic!

We hired the Royz Band for our wedding, and they were absolutely fantastic! We had a diverse range of guests, and everyone loved them. They are incredibly talented, and set a great tone for the whole night. Heather was a pleasure to work with leading up to the event. She is incredibly organized and knowledgeable, and I was grateful for her event planning expertise. Overall, the Royz Band surpassed our expectations. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for live music for their event.

The Royz band were spectacular

The Royz band were spectacular. Heather was so organized I felt like I had my own wedding planner; she helped us with the planning of the entire evening. People started dancing during dinner, and the dance floor remained busy all night long. People were even dancing beside their tables when there wasn't room on the dance floor. I highly recommend the band to anyone for any occasion. Their repertoire is as great as the band!

Snap them up!

We hired the Royz Band for our wedding reception entertainment and highly encourage others to do the same. From the first e-mail communication to the end of the wedding night, the Royz Band were professional, considerate, and friendly. Dealing with Heather was a real pleasure, she went through every particular with me in a friendly way and made sure that the programme planned was really to our tastes, as she said it was 'our' wedding and the Royz Band wanted to fit in, not the other way around.

This band got the guests up on the dance floor even before dinner had finished. Their energy was really contagious and the request cards they put out meant that every guest felt included in the entertainment. The range of different music that the band can perform is truely impressive and I suggest you get them to play their rendition of 'Love Shack' as it had the entire reception dancing.

One other bonus from this band is that they include DJ music as well as the live band. It means that if there are any requests the band can't play, or specific versions of songs you want from the original recording they can play it. It also means that while the band have their break (and working over 12 hours in a row they deserve it) that there isn't an empty dance floor. DJ Bongogirl keeps the momentum going.

I couldn't be happier with the way our wedding entertainment turned out and would encourage anyone considering the band to snap them up, they are worth it!

Simply Amazing

Simply amazing - not just the music, but the entire experience. Heather is fabulous and the band is incredible. They clearly love what they do and our guests raved about them during and after the wedding. The first thing I said to my wife after our wedding was "Now we a need another function so we can hire the band again." They played "Lost Together" for our first dance (Love their version and I am a discerning Blue Rodeo fan!), MC'ed our event, DJ'ed and played the instrumental for the ceremony. As one other reviewer stated, Heather was so organized that it was like having a wedding planner! I do not write reviews, but they deserve top marks and I want them to know how much we appreciate them and their craft. We wouldn't change a thing. Thanks for making our night better than we could have imagined.

Heather and the boys,

Thank you so much for the great job you did at our wedding. Everyone commented on how great the music was and how much fun they were having. (Where did those hula hoops come from ????)

We know things were a bit chaotic and didn't go quite according to plan, and we really appreciated the very professional way that you dealt with the unexpected. We'll be very happy to recommend you to anyone looking for a great band.

Thanks for everything.
