You were absolutely amazing and I am deeply touched by the way you all threw yourselves in to the evening and joined in with the raffle etc. This was so very kind of you. The guests loved you and I’m receiving compliments about you all round.
Give my regards to the boys, true gentlemen and a pleasure to work with.
We were absolutely delighted to have booked the band to play at our wedding reception. The standard was exceptional and the band had provided an extensive repertoire from which we were able to highlight our favoured songs.
The band had travelled from Yorkshire to London to play and they might be making the journey down the A1 more frequently as several guests at the wedding have been asking for their contact details, and all thank you letters have commented on their stunning performance. The dance floor was filled all night.
We and all the guests were absolutely blown away by your performance at the wedding. We loved every minute of it. Everything was brilliant and you guys created a fantastic atmosphere.
