Caroline and Lawrence’s wedding
Caroline A booked The Family for their Wedding
Haxby Village Hall, West Yorkshire
The Family made an incredible addition to our wedding. We knew we wanted a band with soul, who would get the dancing going during our reception and they certainly delivered on that! From our first meeting with Pete a few months before we knew we were in safe hands as Pete was so professional and also really helpful as we planned out the timings for our reception. He also suggested that as well as a first dance, we pick an exit anthem to end our night! On the day we were running pretty late, almost an hour over schedule. The Family were incredibly gracious, not batting an eyelid, and they even started their soundcheck outside so that we could make up some of the time. Then from the very first song they had people up and dancing with an amazing mix of tunes, crossing genres and generations, with some very cool mash ups in there too! Our exit anthem (Uptown Funk!) was an absolutely brilliant way to end our night, but the band didn’t stop there. They kept playing after we had gone, keeping our guests dancing for as long as possible! Their ipad DJ was also a really great add on, especially as they had asked us if we had any requests beforehand. We wanted our wedding to be joyful and fun, and we could not have asked for a better fit in The Family.”
