Haley Dunn, Wedding Event, Leicestershire
We were really pleased with Celebrity Jazz Band. The music fitted perfectly with our day, and they were really helpful with our requests. They were really professional, and we had loads of comments from our guests on how good the music was. I just wish we could have had them playing for longer.
Monica Hill (Fishburns Solicitors), Corporate Event, London

Gill & Mark Douglas, Wedding, North Yorkshire
Tracey, Thank you for your email and congratulations. We have just got back from our honeymoon so apologies for my delay in responding. We certainly had a fabulous wedding day, everything went very well. We were really delighted with Celebrity Jazz, who played exactly the type of music we were hoping for and really helped make the evening dinner celebration go better than we had hoped. I did thank the trio on the evening and have phoned Matthew to give him the feedback as well. Mark & I would have no hesitation in recommending them to others or considering using again.
