Review Centre: Latin / Salsa / Mariachi Bands

"I contacted Tom, Ela and Matt after seeing their promo on YouTube. We weren’t even planning on having a band but after seeing what they offered musically and aesthetically it suited our wedding perfectly. They delivered exactly what we wanted and Ela was great at helping us choose a playlist. Their set was perfect for background music as well as dancing if you wanted. The beauty of their performance was that it simply fit and felt right. If you are considering them then just go for it!"

"We recently hired The VIP Formula to perform at our garden party and they were brilliant! We felt a lot of chemistry from their videos online, but in person it was even better and the guys were incredible. They created so much energy and atmosphere; the guests were dancing nonstop. On top of all that, they are just really nice people and so easy to work with. We would highly highly recommend them."

"Hi Rory. Just a short note from Richard and I to thank you for your contribution to last night’s party at Hartsbourne. You were fantastic! A real star. The music was everything we could have hoped for and more, we couldn't be happier. It was a great success and I’m sure you’ll get other bookings from it. We know that the Social Chairman is thinking of booking you for the Club nights during the summer. You were great! I have told and will continue to tell as many of our friends as possible about you. Can I take you home with me? With best wishes. Carol."

Hi Carol & Richard Thank you so much for having me play on Saturday evening, I thoroughly enjoyed meeting everyone and entertaining you and your guests. Hope that the rest of the night went successfully and look forward to potentially coming back sometime soon! :-) I also really appreciate your kind words so thank you very much! Cheers Rory

"I booked Latina Festivale for our annual company summer party, seeing as it was a Latin-theme party the band were a perfect fit. The booking process with easy and Latina Festivale was efficient getting over all the information I needed. We split the performances into two, which got more up-tempo as the evening went on. The vocals and quality of the musicians were outstanding and the band blended in well with our guests. The live performance definitely made the party all that more memorable, I certainly recommend booking the band for your next party!"

"What a lovely surprise! The music is authentic, and the guys really understand clave. I've been collecting Latin music (from Cuba, Puerto Rico, Colombia) for a long time now and am very rarely surprised..."

"Edina and Tony are fantastic musicians. We fell in love with their music at the Rythm Tree festival on the Isle of Wight 3 years ago. We liked them so much we contacted them to play at our wedding. They played two sets at our wedding reception and then played the song to our first dance and got the dance floor going before handing over to the DJ. First class performance by them and the crowd loved them. "

"We just wanted to email to thank the guys for being amazing on our wedding day! So many of our guests have commented saying how great they were and that they got the party started straight away. They loved that they could just request their own songs and everyone has said the atmosphere was nothing like they had seen before at a wedding that early on in the day. Even the staff at the house stopped us to say how good they were. They were exactly what we were after and we couldn't be happier. If you could pass on our thanks that would be amazing. Best wishes"

"Rory and his colleagues played at my husband’s 40th birthday party. This was held on a summer evening at home for around 60 people. Having live music totally transformed the night. Rory's band created a really unique atmosphere. The music was relaxed and subtle, which meant that the conversation could flow, but so enjoyable to listen to that you didn't want it to end. I would love to have the opportunity to hear him play again and I would not hesitate to engage him for another occasion."

Hi Adam and Sofie, Thank you so much for this very kind review - it is perfect, and exactly what I was looking for. It was a real pleasure to entertain you at your garden party, and I am thrilled that you enjoyed it! We would be delighted to offer our services again in the future. Keep in touch and best wishes :-) Many thanks and best regards, Rory

"I've worked with Rory for about 4 years now, he regularly performs for our agency. Not only is he a fantastic player, he is one of the most diligent and organised musicians we work with. We always receive fantastic feedback from the clients he plays for, many of which go on to book him many times again. I have no hesitation recommending him. Legend!"

"Edina really helped to make the lunch party we were holding for my husband's 70th birthday a tremendous success. We have had so much lovely feedback about her performance from the thank you cards and letters we have received. She was asked to play an encore which she happily did. Her music just made us want to dance! Many many thanks Edina and we would happily recommend her to anyone who wants Spanish guitar."

"Brilliant show! Great Entertainers! Several of my guests didn't stop commenting how good you are, especially due to the way you got people involved. A very professional and talented show. The three of you were amazing. The whole experience was like being transported to Cuba. Your English covers were a brilliant plus. People were on the dance floor for hours. If you're looking for something different, refreshing, and special for your wedding day, I highly recommend VIP Formula!"
