Protege

All of my guests were blown away by Protege! They were organized, energetic and engaging. We loved that they’d get on the dance floor and boogie with us! So much fun and will forever be recommending them and Wilson Stevens, thank you!

Thanks for everything, WS & Protege! The band was awesome and we got SO many compliments from guests about how great the band was. We had a blast!

Good morning, 

Kevin and I just wanted to say thank you so much for making the day so very special for us!! We appreciate all your hard work and dedication. We had such a wonderful day with Protege. 

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!!! 

I just wanted to reach out to say how *incredible* Protege was for our wedding. Every single person we’ve spoken to since the night ended asked us where we found them because they were so great. We could not get over how perfect they were for both us and our guests and just wanted to say thank you!!!

Thank you again, and we hope to be able to refer you to future weddings we attend so we can continue to dance with them!

Hello Katlin + the Protege team!

I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you for making Erin + Trey’s wedding incredible and everything they hoped for — it was an absolute pleasure working with you, the band was amazing and so helpful in getting the announcements out to the crowd. Please give my thanks to John and the crew and I do hope we have the chance to work together again in the near future.

Thank you again for working with us and helping to facilitate all the details of our wedding day. Everyone could not stop raving about Protege and James and I got to see our vision come to life. It was truly an amazing party!

Dear Protege & Wilson Stevens,

Thank you so much for the incredible music, MC’ing and overall atmosphere at our wedding! The music was exactly what we wanted and had everyone dancing all night. Your ability to read the crowd and adjust in the moment is incredible. Thank you so much for making our night unforgettable!

Apologies for the delay, but we had an unbelievable time at our wedding. It is truly so hard to even put it into words. I cannot tell you the number of guests who said Protege was the best wedding band they’ve heard in years. They played such a key role in making our wedding a success- if there’s anything we could do to help promote outside of word of mouth we are happy to help please let us know!!

Hi Katlin,

Matt and I had the best wedding day and we wanted to express how thankful we are to Protege and everyone at Wilson Stevens for making it as perfect as it was! As you may know, my father in law got up and played/sang a song for us, which was such a special moment. We greatly appreciate you all allowing him to do that. Everyone in the band was so friendly and entertaining! It was a blast. We have gotten so many compliments from our guests on how good they were! Additionally, Protege really made us feel like movie stars! They kept complimenting us, telling us how good we looked and how awesome our family and friends were.

Thanks again!

Protege did a great job and all the guests were raving about them. Bravo!!

Dear Wilson Stevens,

Thank you so much for being a part of our special day! All the help, the calls and the lead-up…it came together beautifully would not have been the same without Protege.

We also greatly appreciate you learning the songs we requested for our first dance and parent dances, and we will always cherish these songs forever because of you! 

Protege was amazing! The Wilson Stevens team was so responsive, professional, very accommodating and collaborative. Many guests said Protege was the best wedding band they ever heard.

Thank you!

Thank you all for a smooth, professional process in securing Protégé for my son’s wedding. The dance floor was full the whole evening. Everyone raved about the band – they were spectacular! We look forward to working with you again in the future! Our daughter will be getting engaged next!

Protege was just as good as we remembered from seeing them at a friend’s wedding! Justin and Cheryl were fantastic to work with! We had to reschedule our wedding twice because of Covid, and they made everything so easy. We had so much fun and they even played our requested recorded music during the band break! Thank you so much!

Protege was absolutely amazing! Our guests could not stop talking about how great the band was. Thank you!

Hi Justin,

I just wanted to email to say thank you so much to Protege for the most wonderful wedding! They made it even better than I could have imagined. I have already had multiple friends/family reach out and say when they get married they will be calling Protege. The band was fabulous and had everyone up and out on the dance floor. Their sound guy was amazing especially with the wind they had to deal with outside at one point. Brad and I truly are so happy that we had the opportunity to have them at our wedding. Please pass along my sincere thank you to Kaitlin & the band! Everything could not have been more perfect! 

Thank you for being such an integral part of our wedding day. Our vision of our guests dancing the entire night was definitely accomplished. You guys are so incredibly talented. You were also such a pleasure to work with and accommodating when we decided to postpone. I can’t say enough great things about the band and Wilson Stevens company as a whole. I will definitely recommend you to everyone I know getting married.

Protege played for our wedding in Kennebunkport Maine this past weekend. They were absolutely incredible! All of our guests were blown away and had a great time on the dance floor. Everyone at WS and the whole team was a pleasure to work with.

TY!

Protege,

Thank you so much for being a part of our special day and making it absolutely unforgettable!

You guys had everyone upon that dance floor, I mean some on chairs, and some in with the band- but everyone could not get over how amazing our entertainment was!

Thank you for being a part of our day and help making it the best day of our lives!!!

Before I head our for my honeymoon I wanted to send along a sincere thank you for all being incredible and gifted at your individual talents. You and Protege helped make my vision a reality. Yesterday was a dream. Thank you for everything!!!

Working with Wilson Stevens was extremely easy! Our coordinator Katlin Florin answered all our questions and made sure we were taken care of. Multiple guests commented how good the band was. We loved the music and the dance floor was packed, which was exactly what we wanted at our wedding! Thank you!

Words can’t even express our overwhelming gratitude to Wilson Stevens and Protege.

They literally played every song we wanted to hear. Their personalities and joining us on the dance floor was just killer, the bus cart on the floor was one of the best things I’ve ever seen. Learning Consequence Free, knowing it was not in their typical wheelhouse – was brilliant!!!! They followed every queue from our request list, and made it easy for us to know when we were “on”.

I’m an amatuer musician, so I’m usually very particular about bands being on point, and in tune. They were absolute perfection.

I’m hoping they had as much fun as we did. I will recommend you to anyone and everyone.  Simply the highlight of the whole day!!!!

Thank you as well for your professionalism and quick responses. You made the whole experience so easy.

Hi Cheryl & Justin,

Just wanted to drop you a quick note to say Protege was absolutely incredible. You all truly made our day absolutely amazing!

Thank you, thank you!

Hey Justin & Tim,

I’m in between the going away breakfast this morning and packing to head out of town. I just wanted to drop you a quick note to say that Protege was absolutely freaking phenomenal last night. That’s all people were talking about this morning at breakfast. The energy was incredible, the individual talent was unbelievable and their professionalism was outstanding. I’m not going to get into the details right now, but that group of musicians was the best band I’ve ever heard!

I cannot thank you enough for all of your assistance in helping make last night a very special event for my baby daughter!

My new husband and I are both professional classically trained musicians- and we were blown away by the band. They were excellent and the highlight of the reception! All of our guests were raving about the band. Protege was just wonderful!

As an aside, Justin, Katlin, and Cheryl were all incredible! Very responsive, and incredibly flexible throughout the pandemic, FOUR different wedding dates, and many changes to the contract. We are so grateful that they were so easy to work with.

Protege,

Thank you so much for the best night of our entire lives. You really brought the best energy and vibes, and made it a party. We were so worried about the Covid regulations and having to put your stage away from the tent, but we were so relieved that your performance totally made up for it, and we had the best time.

Thank you again!

We absolutely loved working with Protege! They were so amazing at our wedding. People were on the dance floor the whole time and it made for such a fun wedding!! We received so many comments from our guests on how wonderful the band was, how they played a wide range of music and how they made the night a blast! We couldn’t have asked for a better night. The band was great to work with, the emcee was flexible and very approachable and all of the band members were so full of energy. We can’t thank you guys enough for making our wedding so memorable! We had so much fun that my husband said that he would pay to come see Protege in concert. Thank you guys so much for a wonderful night!!

Tim, Katlin, and Team,

A long overdue but BIG thank you for all you did to make Justine and Kevin’s August wedding a memorable one! Though it’s been the strangest, and easily one of the most heartbreaking years, their day is a bright spot and always will be. I appreciate you all being a part of that!

Here’s to a restful and happy holiday season! Thanks again!

The wedding was so beautiful. Protege is the main reason why the wedding was awesome. Excellent communication with Katlin. Just awesome. Quick response and extremely pleasant. Joy to work with. Everyone loved the band. We all danced all night. Great reviews from all our guest. Thank you so much.

John and I truly cannot thank you enough for providing the best entertainment we ever could have imagined at our wedding in September! We can both still remember all the amazing music that you played like it was yesterday!

We were on cloud nine the entire night and it truly wouldn’t have been the same without you guys there. Every single one of our guests raved about you guys for good reason- talented is a huge understatement!  🙂

Katlin and Justin,

You were both so great and responsive with all the planning leading up to our big day! We hope to see you again in the future! Thanks again for everything.

Justin, Katlin, Protege & Wilson Stevens Productions Team,

Thank you for an amazing night! You are all so wonderful to work with and made our night so special! We hear all the time how awesome the band was at our wedding! We’re so grateful we were able to work together, thank you!

Katlin & Cheryl,

Protege was fantastic and so was the lighting! Thank you guys for everything, it’s been so great to work with all of you!

Hi Justin and Katlin,

I just wanted to thank you again so much for working with Stephanie and I to have Protege play at our wedding. They were amazing performers and such nice people! Leah came up to our bridal suite and spoke with us prior to the reception just to make sure everything was good to go.

You were both so incredibly professional and easy to worth with. Stephanie was very impressed with Katlin’s organization.

Dear Protege,

Thank you so much for making our wedding night so special! You did an incredible job reading the energy of our guests and playing the perfect songs. We have had so many guests tell us it was the best band they have ever heard! Despite the heat, you all brought amazing, positive energy and we could not have asked for a better dance floor vibe. Wr had such a great time, thank you!

The band was amazing!!! All our guests are still raving about what an amazing time they had and how they were dancing all night – truly one of the best nights of the year!! Thank you so much Protege!

Hi Katlin and Justin,

First off, a big thank you to you guys and to the Protege band. They were INCREDIBLE last night at our wedding! Guests kept coming up to us on the dance floor to tell us how great they thought the band was – and my uncle who was a concert promoter for a long time said he thought they were among the best bands he’s seen at any wedding, period. They played with such energy, enthusiasm, and polish. Having them get people on the dance floor and keeping them there with fantastic song selection and style turned what was already a special night into an unforgettable one.

Protege was simply phenomenal. Everyone displayed excellent musicianship. We are musicians ourselves, and many of our guests in attendance are musicians as well, so it was important to us to hire a band of high caliber. Protege did not disappoint! Our guests are still talking about how much they enjoyed dancing and watching the band perform. The pianist who played for our ceremony was wonderful; we had specific covers of songs that we wanted to incorporate into our ceremony and he replicated them beautifully.

All of the representatives we spoke with, from Tim to Katlin as the wedding date approached, were professional and knowledgeable. They were great about answering all of our questions and were truly a pleasure to work with.

We have been recommending Wilson Stevens bands to all of our friends for future weddings! We couldn’t have been more satisfied with their performance and the planning process throughout.

Everyone couldn’t stop raving about the band. Protege was excellent and they made my wedding that much better.

We couldn’t be any happier with using Wilson Stevens. By hosting several events in the Boston area, it makes it extremely easy to see all the bands that they manage perform. Wilson Stevens handles everything, from providing the song lists to the questionnaire and all the little details. This made it very easy to get information and questions answered quickly. Katlin was very responsive with our never ending emails with questions. Not only do they manage the bands, but they also provide uplighting for the event. The uplighting was exactly how we pictured it, and we couldn’t be happier. Justin was able to answer any questions about the types of lights and how many he felt we needed for the venue. Wilson Stevens was awesome, and we have recommended them to our recently engaged friends!

Dear Justin, Katlin, Wilson Stevens & members of Protege, Thank you so much for all of the help planning before the wedding and for the best performance ever on our wedding day! We had so much fun dancing, singing and stealing the mic from you on the dance floor!

Our guests are still raving about how much fun they had at our wedding and it was all because of you! I think that was some of the best dancing and singing the Warwick Country Club has ever seen! Thanks for helping us have the best wedding ever! We wish we could do it again!

Protege was above and beyond what I expected. All my guests were raving about them, what a talented group of artists:) Thank you thank you thank you!!!

Protege was absolutely PHENOMENAL!! Our guests continue to reach out to absolutely rave about the band !! The most important part things for us when planning our wedding were the music and the food. We had seen Groovin You’ at a friend’s wedding a few years ago and were very impressed – we were so glad that there were a few Wilson Stevens bands still available when we reached out about our wedding date. We loved Protege’s vibe. They were absolutely wonderful – great musicians, super cool vibe, fabulous entertainers out on the dance floor with our guests, true professionals reading the crowd and choosing appropriate songs during the course of the night. Protege made our wedding incredible!! Thank you!!

I can’t say enough good things about Protege and Wilson Stevens! First of all, I can’t even begin to count the number of people that came up to me at the wedding, the next day, and still, weeks later, to tell me how amazing Protege was! They created exactly the party we were hoping for and kept the whole crowd dancing all night. Yesterday, nearly 4 weeks after the wedding, a friend said to me that one of the songs that Protege played was “literally the best wedding dance party moment I’ve ever experienced.” Later, we had so much fun hanging out with the members of the band, who were all so down to earth, nice, and fun. I can’t think of anyone better to have play at a wedding! I was also so impressed with the management from Wilson Stevens. Katlin was responsive and thoughtful, and Wilson Stevens, along with the venue, took care of all the details so that we didn’t have to think about it! They just did their jobs exceptionally well, taking all of that off of my plate. Thank you Protege and Wilson Stevens!

Protege was so amazing! They did a great job and the dance floor was packed all evening until the end of the event! Leah was so fantastic as the band leader and so easy to work with. 

Tim,

Protege was amazing, very easy to work with. I would definitely book them again!

Thank you!

We received countless compliments from our guests on how great the band was. Protege did an amazing job of keeping the energy level up for the entire wedding and their performance kept people on the dance floor all night. We are so happy with our choice and would use them again in a heartbeat!

My sister had Protege play at her wedding and we loved them, so were hired them for ours and they did not disappoint in the least. Everybody had a blast and was dancing until the last song (including an encore!). I cannot recommend Protege enough and working with Wilson Stevens was painless and could not have gone smoother.

Protege was excellent once again. They’re easy to work, appropriately dressed and very professional.

The process was trouble free and Protege’s performance was spectacular. Even our mothers were dancing, can’t ask for more than that!
