    "Unforgettable. Crowd pleasing. Fun. Amazing character. On-pitch. Friendly. Made our wedding! From their acoustic session in the afternoon right through to the evening they set the tone for our wedding. People weren't dancing constantly but that's no disrespect to what an amazing band. Everyone was dancing in their seats and the atmosphere was alive :) The amount of comments I've had during and after is just all positives. They got people off their feet, played from the room and gave us the best wedding day we could ever imagine. The first words that Dave said to me was 'you are the boss and we will do what you envisage' I just found this refreshing. They were prompt in correspondence, professional but with personality shining through. I cannot recommend them enough"
