The band were outstanding. Really nice lads and very professional. Arrived when they said they would and made the wedding superb with a great array of songs. The highlight was them learning our first dance so we could have it played live. Thanks again to all involved.

The band were thorough in the info they shared with us and in the questions they asked to collect the info they needed from us. They were professional, friendly and could not have done more for us. They played our first dance song beautifully and both sets were fantastic, especially considering it was such an incredibly hot day. They played a perfect set of songs for the event and we loved every second.
