Testimonials

The Famous Players completely surpassed all expectations for the Woodward/Kohn wedding.  We have received nothing but unbelievable praise and complements on your performance. You combined Toni and my requests while superseding our wildest dreams. I cannot reiterate how much you added to our wedding and we are so thankful for your involvement.

 

Many thanks,

Stephen & Toni

 

I had only known Famous Players by reputation, having been turned on to them by a friend with the Safeway Foundation who brought them in for a gala benefit. Needless to say, I was blown away by their performance, as were my guests.

In all my years of event planning I have never seen such an enthusiastic response to a group of performers as I did with FPB. Dealing with them was a delight, from contract phase right through post-performance, they were superstars but never prima donnas. I’d bring them back again in a heartbeat.

"We just got back from honeymooning in Kauai, and I wanted to spend a few minutes to write you to express my (our) gratitude for you guys rocking the house for our wedding.

We had the best day of our lives and have so many wonderful memories the big day/night, a major highlight being the music. Starting off with the hora was amazing! and although, i am somewhat biased i can say with a fair degree of certainty that was one of the wilder hora's of all time. The music kept getting better and better and it was great to look out at the dance floor and see all generations of our guests dancing up a storm. People loved the medley with under pressure, ice ice baby and quite a few were surprised to hear the outfield in your repertoire. I also wanted to say a personal thanks for making the encore happen! it was so much fun and a perfect way to end what was already a high energy evening."
