Review Centre: Bands & Ensembles

"It was an absolute pleasure and delight meeting you on Saturday, you completely blew me away with expectations. I know that you had not had the best of weeks prior to Saturday, but please don’t let peoples opinions or actions define who you are as a person, or your passion. You are extremely talented and is a gift. So many people came to me and said how amazing you are! "If you are considering hiring Rory for your event 100% do it. Rory played at our wedding and completely blew us and our guests away, such a talent. Before our wedding we collaborated on what vibe we wanted to set, songs, some surprises for our guests and Rory completely understood the assignment and just continued to surprise and bring pure joy. Rory made our wedding the most magical, joyous and beautiful experience possible."

Hi Lyndsey, Sorry to hear you’ve not been feeling great, although I can understand with the wedding and everything, with all the preparation and seeing so many people from your life in one go, it can be emotionally and physically draining. Do take plenty of rest and care of yourself. You deserve it! Thank you so much for your wonderful testimonial, really, it means the world to me! As you know, I had such joy contributing to your special day and I really appreciate your kindness and the energy of everyone at The Merlin. Thanks also for your understanding, Sarah-Jane was very supporting, she said that this wedding was what I needed right now, and like you said it was meant to be! It was great spending some time in Manchester again! It was a fantastic event, a true pleasure to be a part of, and feel free to give SJ a shout if you need any help with any future events. Many thanks and have a wonderful Christmas. All the best for 2025! Cheers Rory

"Hot Hats performed an exceptional set at our 50th anniversary celebration at Park Furnishers in Bristol. We enquired whether the set list could be tailored to our 60’s theme and the band were very accommodating, plus provided a selection of co-ordinated background music in between each set. The band were very well received and we would not hesitate to book them for future events! Richard Mears"

"The Gold Quartet performed at our wedding ceremony and reception and it was exactly what we were hoping for! We made a special request for our march in music and they were very quick to send us a demo which was very impressive. We are so glad to have them performing at our reception in the Sudeley Castle garden. They set the perfect tone while our guests and ourselves were enjoying the wine and music."

"Hollie was amazing performing at our wedding on the 4th August 2017. Hollie was excellent before our big day too, planning the structure of the day and with a lot of songs we chose ourselves. From our first conversation with Hollie our minds were put at ease with her calm, professional, and friendly manner which really took all of the stress away. Hollie created a really personal set which added a touch of magic to our special day.....she truly has an amazing voice. I will definitely hire her again. "
