"If you are considering hiring Love For Sale to play your event then go for it. We have hired them for the last three years to play our reception and they never disappoint. They play a great mix of songs and really enhance the atmosphere. I noticed plenty of our guests smiling and taping their feet as they enjoyed the music. They are always organised, prompt, fun and professional. This year we had to change the location where they set up to play in the venue at short notice and they had no problem at all with this and just set up and got to playing. They are a very talented and friendly group of professionals. We look forward to seeing all of you again next year! "

"We could not have asked for a better band to play at our event. From the time we made our initial booking Bobby was very helpful. We were able to pre-set our music list which was fantastic and allowed our event to be personalised. On the night they ensured that everyone was included in their performances. They walked around the room whilst playing and dancing and interacted with everyone. I have had very positive feedback from my guests from the night regarding the band. They honestly made our night. Would highly recommend if you want that special and personal touch to your event "

"Thank you so much for playing at our wedding last weekend. Although I only got to hear a few pieces myself, the ones I heard were wonderful & many of our guests commented on how good the music you played was. We requested you play Nightswimming by REM, a piece not previously in your repertoire. The version you played was exactly what we wanted, so thank you. I would definitely recommend you to anyone looking for a string quartet for a future event."

"Grace and I first discovered Capriccio Quartet at the Best Western Regency Bridal show. Having not considered music, let alone a string quartet before we went, we were amazed by the musicians, especially when they asked us to choose a song from their repertoire, which turned out to be the exit song at our wedding. Having made the decision to book the group, Lynette and the team were so good during the lead up to our wedding, they even rehearsed music not on their repertoire for our aisle song which made for perfect harmony on the day. On the day of our wedding we don’t know what we would have done at the beginning of the ceremony without Capriccio in the background because they filled the room with beautiful music. The weather was so glorious that during the reception the quartet performed outside and our guests commented on how wonderful the music was. Our wedding without Capriccio wouldn’t have been the same, they made our day so special and one that we will treasure. We are truly thankful for everything and appreciate listening to such talent. "

"It was truly a pleasure to have Banish Misfortunes playing at my 60th Birthday Party. The melodic sounds of fiddle and guitar wafting across the sun-filled garden suited the occasion perfectly, and provided the perfect enhancement to the event. I would recommend Banish Misfortunes to anyone. "

"We couldn't have been more delighted with The Kings Of Swing performance, the dance floor was packed from the moment they started and stayed that way for the whole set!"

"We hired the MVS Steel Pan Duo to play at the Aldmore Bank Annual Conference in Manchester. We were really impressed with the performance and received some really positive comments from colleagues. We would definitely book again."

"Thank you so much for coming to our aid New Years Eve. When our musicians had to cancel last minute (through no fault of their own) Jan came to our rescue and found us a top class saxophonist and pianist. We have had so many wonderful comments about the music and created a few new Jazz fans too! Thank you to Allison and Kate for providing the wonderful music and Jan for all your help. Happy New Year!"

"We had the South Manchester String Quartet to play for my entrance and during the signing. They added real emotion to the day before I had even walked down the aisle. Guests were crying before I came in – I think without them the atmosphere could have been a bit flat and people would certainly have been bored. My favourite part of the wedding has to be walking down the aisle – I don’t think I will ever get butterflies like that again! And – Glen cried! Now that’s a first."
