"Kay was nothing but outstanding for our wedding and we couldn’t recommend enough. Kay played for our ceremony and reception drinks and every single person commented on how good her music was. We had one call with Kay, after booking fairly late compared to some, and nothing was too much stress for her. We’re hoping to host another event at some point just so we can look to book her again!"

"Wow, these guys are just terrific. We went for the 4 piece and they were sensational. All our guests loved them. They were interactive and knew exactly what to play and when. Their manager was incredibly communicative before the event and nothing was too much trouble. Great musicians, great guys and we were thrilled. Thank you."

"Please convey my thanks to the band for such a terrific evening last night! I have had many emails to say how good the music was and the band really made a great atmosphere for our summer barbecue. Such a pity the weather was so poor, but it didn’t affect the mood of the evening at all!"

"A huge thank you to Magenta Strings for providing the perfect musical accompaniment to our wedding ceremony and drinks reception. They were exceptionally professional and seamlessly managed to navigate the British spring weather - playing indoors and outdoors. They entertained our guests with a wonderful mix of music. We'd definitely recommend Magenta Strings and just want to say another massive thank you for helping to make our day special!"

"James and the band were brilliant, and we are so glad we booked them for our wedding celebration. James was really helpful in the lead up to the day: getting in touch, making sure we were aligned on the schedule and following up with a clear plan. The band on the day were excellent - they performed a great selection of music played during our canapés, dinner and then dancing. Our guests loved the music, they were all on the dance floor even though we had a relatively small crowd! The band also learned a first dance song for us (Elvis Presley - The Wonder of You) and they performed it perfectly for us on the day! Thanks so much James & the band!"

"My wife and I would just like to say a huge thank you to Roaming Wild for performing at our wedding on Saturday. Everybody we have spoken to have said that they are the best wedding band they have ever seen. If we have any other big occasions we will be sure to use them."

"We booked Pine Acoustics for our very special 20th Wedding Anniversary at home in our garden. Well what can I say from the first point of contact through to the day itself they were so professional. We requested our wedding song, some pop tunes and some jazz, which they included in their sets and performed to perfection. A very talented musician made the guitar sing and Conor's superb vocals combined for an evening of pure enjoyment. We wholeheartedly recommend Jazz Eclipse!"

"THIS GUY!!! Hired a three piece band from Thomas, who was so easy to communicate with. The band did requests and it made our night personal to us. Couldn't recommend enough! "

"LOVED this band who played wonderful jazz and couldn't have been more accommodating. I liked the fact that John, the band leader, was so thoughtful about how to get the party going with a nice welcoming vibe and also helped me decide when they should play and for how long etc. It was great having another person with whom to plan the right atmosphere. The party was for an ex-trumpet player, so it was important that we had a proper jazz band - and they are! So many of our guests said how much they loved the music; it really made the party. Thank you so much. "

"The Jazz Notes recently played for my nans funeral wake. They are true professionals and handled an emotional day with respect, whilst managing to lift everybody’s spirits. It was perfect. They’re a class act. Thanks again. "

"Thanks Andy to you and the guys in the band for performing again at our annual summer shindig. At least the rain held off this time. I hope to see you again in the future."

"Thank you so much for the beautiful music! All of our guests absolutely loved the songs you played & it kept them hugely entertained while waiting for the ceremony. I was sorry we were late walking down the aisle. The planned timings didn’t quite go to plan. I hugely appreciated how you kept the guests thoroughly entertained while waiting. They all said how upbeat and beautiful sounding you were. A massive thank you from both of us. Natalya, your music made the ceremony extra special and romantic! it really did, absolutely beautiful"

"Dear Anne, Thanks, once again all your hard work in putting together a wonderful orchestra for me and helping to make Saturday Evening such a success. We had great feedback from the audience. It was a pleasure to work with you once again after such a long shutdown. I think everyone was thrilled to be back in action. There was some really expressive playing - quite an achievement with so little time to rehearse - a testament to professionalism. Loved conducting you all. Please pass on my thanks and appreciation to the players. They are a really nice group of people to work with! All the best until next time. Martin "
