Great band, played with energy and fun got the room moving made our wedding great.
Vikki
Cannot recommend The Big Time highly enough. Super friendly and professional. Was great to have a big indie band - they have a great sound and got exactly what we wanted. Was worried people wouldn't start dancing but didn't need to because as soon as they started up their 1st set, guests were on their feet dancing. They also understood pretty quickly, us, and our guests wanted to go heavy so altered their set slightly to fit. Our wedding ended in a rager! It was so much fun and we 100% made the right decision choosing them. We had an amazing night.
Rebecca
The band was amazing! Arrived in good time, got everything set up and tested. Communication was really easy leading upto the day, and everyone loved them. We got so many comments from guests on how good they were. Would definitely recommend. Thank you guys!
Rebecca
The Big Time were absolutely brilliant! They played the perfect mix of rockier crowd pleasers as well as what must be the standard list of wedding songs. They learned our first song and played it with the same flair as their normal playlist. On time, unobtrusive when setting up and flexible when we were slightly behind schedule they were exemplary in terms of professionalism. Book, book, book them you will not regret it!
Ronnie
What an amazing band, loved every minute, the dance floor was packed all night, I would highly recommend The Big Time to anyone that wants a band that keeps the crowd going all night.
Dan
We had these guys play our wedding ceremony and then reception. My wife wanted a large 'show band' but I'm really into my indie music... so these guys were the perfect fit. Large band, cool styling and really classy song choices. They even did a broken down acoustic set during our ceremony and it was truly beautiful. Would definitely recommend many times over.
Roland
These guys sounded both massive and stylish! Such a great array of instruments in the band and the multiple vocal harmonies were awesome - absolutely wowed our wedding guests and look forward to seeing them again soon! Oh, and thanks for letting my dad get up and sing with you :)
