Jen M booked The Blakes for their Wedding in Lancashire
“We booked The Blakes for our wedding reception last weekend, and they were incredible! So many of our guests commented on their performances, thank you for making it such a great evening for us. Would definitely recommend!”
Great band! Would recommend for any event
Kate M booked The Blakes for their event in Greater Manchester
“The Blakes were great - they did a real mix of songs which got people up and dancing. They had a difficult crowd as it was a corporate dinner but they had a good group up and dancing and even had requests for another song (twice!) at the end of the night.”
Richard C booked The Blakes for their Wedding in Greater Manchester
“Awesome people and awesome band. Everyone loved them and then they rocked the roof off! Great to work with before and during the event. Highly recommended!! Incredible sound and performance and the dance floor was alive! Do not miss out on booking these guys.”

Rebecca S booked The Blakes for their Wedding in Lancashire
“Well what can I say this band was amazing ... especially Maria ... she was so lovely to speak to and very helpful right at the last minute on finding music for my dad and husbands sister to sing too. Maria just diffused my stress at the drop a hat which I was very grateful for. I would highly recommend this very talented band for any gig EVERYONE at our wedding commented how good they were they truly were brilliant thankyou for being part of making my day the best ever!!”
From start to finish, The Blake’s were excellent
Lindsay R booked The Blakes for their Wedding at Manchester Great & New Synagogue in Lancashire

We originally had asked them to arrive at our venue for 5pm, but about a week before our wedding we realized that we needed to make that 4pm and although there was a small extra charge for the earlier arrival, the band were able to accommodate us without any hesitation. The lead singer, Maria also contacted the company that were providing us with the stage, dance floor and lighting to liaise regarding what lighting each were bringing. I contacted Maria prior to the wedding to discuss our requirements regarding first dance song and music for the toasts. Maria provided me with links to a website where I could locate the correct music for the toasts. Her attention to detail was perfect – she was even able to tell me how many seconds the intro was on our first dance song!! I also discussed with her the possibility of the groom singing on the night and Maria and her team even accommodated this, again with...”
