Review Centre: Bands & Ensembles

"We booked this band for a corporate event to celebrate the achievements of our customers. From the initial booking The VIP Formula communicated well and kept us updated. They arrived early to set up and test the equipment, meaning they were relaxed and composed and ready to start at the appropriate time.The band were very accommodating considering our time scales did not go to plan. Once the band started to play, the guests relaxed and really enjoyed the music, many guests commented on how much they enjoyed the music and singing and dancing. The Band made me as the organiser feel comfortable, communication was great, really accommodating gentleman. I would certainly have no hesitation in booking them for future events. Thank you for helping to make the day a great success."

"These guys are incredible. Music is really important to us generally and given we had a festival themed wedding it was even more important to find the perfect band. We spent hours scrolling through bands trying to find what we wanted and it was so worth it to find them. The musical talent of all the band is phenomenal and made such a professional set - we had so many comments about how great they were and I think there will be a few more bookings for them on the back of their performance. We sent them a video of how we wanted our first dance song to be performed and they absolutely nailed the brief. They were also really helpful in planning as we had another band in the afternoon and they were really accommodating of how we made that work to ensure a smooth transition. I can't recommend them highly enough. I nearly ran over when they were finishing up to ask if we could pay them more to stay longer - they made the evening party exactly what we had wanted, cannot recommend them highly enough."

"Hi Paul & the awesome Das Brass, We just wanted to say a huge thank you for playing at our wedding, you guys were amazing and really made the evening. So many people said how great you were and loved our first dance. We’re very grateful for the impromptu practice we did beforehand, that was a real highlight. Thanks Phil & Jo"

"What can I say. This man is such a kind, friendly and helpful gentleman. We spoke to him a few times, nothing was too much trouble. He said he was here to help and we could ask him anything, thats what he was here for. Everyone at the funeral commented and said how lovely he played the bagpipes. Thank you Patrick we really appreciated all your help on the day. It was a pleasure to have met you. If ever we need the bagpipes again we know who to contact. Thankyou again Maureen"

"Nicola and Laura played for my wedding (both cellists), at the ceremony, reception and wedding breakfast. String Musicians have made it so easy and stress free for myself, during the planning and also on the wedding day. Once I told them what I wanted for the music (from the style of music to specific pieces), I did not need to worry about anything else. They worked with the registrar from the council to coordinate cues during the ceremony, so the transition between music pieces was seamless. Many guests commented how well they played throughout the day! Thank you!"

"We booked Florian & Ezio for our corporate gala, and they were a great choice. Their mix of pop and gypsy jazz was a hit with our guests and created a great atmosphere. They were easy to work with and very professional."

"Saw them at my friends wedding last year and IMMEDIATELY booked them for mine this year. They’re incredible, especially if you’ve got guests that love and appreciate live music! Your dance floor will be packed all night. They bring the best vibes x"

"The band went down really well. We really enjoyed the music and it created the perfect background ambience for our event. We hope to have an event where we can welcome you back. Many thanks for the night and for your efficient back office organisation in the run up to the event."
