“Absolutely brilliant! Highly recommend! We couldn’t have asked for more on our wedding day, the band brought our wedding reception alive with two incredible sets, both performances had our guests singing and dancing along, even asking for an encore at the end of the night! A great repertoire of songs and were ever so accommodating with our requests and a surprise for the bride! Thank you so much, Dave & Ria ( Mr and Mrs Cardy-Hawkins)”
