FAB performance for our wedding drinks reception. So many comments from our guests on the band and the quality of their music, the range of tracks was perfect also. Wendy was always prompt to answer any questions and communicate her plans for the day. Would highly recommend and only wish they lived closer to us so we could gatecrash somewhere and see them again soon!

Can’t thank The Temple enough. Absolutely superb at our wedding at Hencote. Apart from having a magical voice, Wendy read the room, and had the dance floor rocking. Anyone looking to book a band look no further than The Temple - they will rock your socks off. xx
