The band were incredibly responsive to emails before our wedding and we felt very confident they understood what we wanted. On the night they were friendly, punctual and well turned out and played a fantastic set, which really got people up and dancing. We were delighted with them.

Phoebe and the band were absolutely fantastic! They took the time to learn our first dance song and it couldn't have gone better. They are a very talented group and we would highly recommend! Before the wedding, the communication from Phoebe was easy and fast which stopped us stressing out nearer to the day and made us able to concentrate on other things. One of the band members even stayed until midnight just so that we could continue using the sound system. Fantastic band. Thanks for everything. X

Well, what can I say? These guys were absolutely fantastic! Firstly, my husband and I spent a very long time looking for a band we wanted - my husband is a musician and I'm very particular about my tastes so it meant that what should've been an easy task ended up being very tricky. But after many hours of searching, we found Absolutely Vintage and instantly fell in love from the short video that they posted. And the real-life band was even better than we'd hoped. Warble was great with feeding back our questions and preferences and Phoebe herself was so helpful with our song choices - including learning our first dance. The venue we had was small, and not the easiest of places to get to, but they were there on time and were even patient enough with the small delay in setting up. Phoebe came and found me straight away to say congratulations and to check everything was OK, as well as compliment us on our first dance choice, with was a lovely touch. The band itself were fantastic and the addition of the trumpet player just made the whole thing really special. There wasn't a note out of place from the musicians - my husband spent a lot of his time simply appreciating the skill of the guitarist - and Phoebe was pitch perfect. I genuinely cannot recommend this band enough. Thank you to both Warble and Absolutely Vintage Swing Band for making our day so perfect.

Absolutely amazing band! Phoebe was a delight and they were so accommodating - dressing to our theme and letting my son have a go on the drums. Everyone was up dancing all night and we were sad when it was time for them to end. Such fun. x

What can I say? Absolutely Vintage Swing Band were incredible! Really easy to deal with before the day, and really made our evening celebrations special on the day itself.

Hi Nicola, thank you so much for all your help. I had a fantastic birthday and the band absolutely made the event. Everyone commented on how great they were and I was pleased that everyone was up dancing!! You were very quick to respond which aided in the stress, booking was extremely easy and it was nice to be sent all the booking contract and info. As I said, the band completely exceeded my expectations, it was obvious they gauged what kind of party it was, what songs we would like and it definitely made the party what it was. Many, many thanks again, Ellie

I saw the Absolutely Vintage Swing Band at a 1940’s event in earlier this year. My fiancé and I were so blown away by the beautiful vocals of Phoebe and the talent of the musicians that we just had to book them for our wedding. The atmosphere at the event was brilliant and I am so looking forward to enjoying them with our friends and family.
