    "The Smugglers, wow!! Brilliant band from start to finish. Prompt on arrival and set up went well (if there were problems then they sure didn't disturb our celebrations to sort it) they were friendly and gave a great performance. Manager Jo was an star and put my stress to rest with outstanding communication via emails. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding band! Thank you all so much for making our night!"
    Melissa - Wedding - Hampshire
    "We were extremely impressed by the professionalism shown by both Entertainment Nation and The Smugglers band throughout the entire booking process. Both were extremely responsive and dealt with COVID related delays in both an exceptional and reasonable manner which really helped alleviate our stress levels! The band were punctual, polite, looked great, made zero fuss, brought great energy to their performance and sounded absolutely fantastic! We loved every second of their two sets and so did our guests! Would not hesitate in recommending! 5 out of 5."
    Joe & Seren - Wedding - Devon
    "We just wanted to contact you to thank you for such a great performance on Saturday night! The band really made our day, and they were such a lovely bunch! Our guests have already asked for their details, and I'm sure they'll be booking them for their parties at some point soon! We're looking forward to seeing them again, and we'll be sure to leave a review on the bands page! Thanks for all your help!!!"
    Party Band Review
    "...The entire booking process was really straight forward, and the contact with the guys leading up to the day was really reassuring. We were a bit apprehensive about booking a band we'd never seen before, but once we'd spoken to the band over the phone, they talked us through all the details they needed on the day we were all set! Very professional guys that didn't disappoint!..."
    Event Band Review
    "Thanks for such a great show guys - you totally exceeded our expectations! We're going to leave you a review on Facebook but wanted to contact you personally to thank you for making our night! We loved your music, and our guests had such a blast. Thanks again! We hope we can see you live again at some point soon!!"
    Live Band Review
    "We are so pleased we booked the Smugglers for our Wedding, and would thoroughly recommend them if you're after a band that will really entertain! Things were running slightly behind on the day, but the guys were great, and moved their set times around to get things back on track for us. They really took it all in their stride, and topped the night off with a performance that our guests are still talking about to this day!"
