"I just wanted to thank you so so much for 13th August. You, the jazz trio and the band were just outstanding! I had so, so many compliments from our guests about how fantastic you were, and it’s a testament to you that the dancefloor was packed while the band was playing. Despite slight logistical challenges, it all just went so well. I also loved hearing the excerpt from Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto after we were married - it was really really special. You were all just amazing, phenomenal, fantastic and you contributed to a brilliant date. Thank you!!"

"When we were looking for the band for our wedding, we wanted a band that had a wide variety of songs from different eras in their repertoire with the ability to perform big powerful ballads and that is exactly what we go with W!RED. As soon as we heard Sue’s incredible voice. We knew they were the band for us and booked them. As soon as we got a couple of months of the wedding I dropped Sue a message. She called me back and was really helpful and reassuring and put me in touch with another member of the band Martin. We arranged a call to go over the details. Martin was friendly and welcoming straight away. Never having booked a band before we didn’t know how much or how little we’d need to be involved, but Martin simply went through a few details with us and then handled the rest. Prior to our wedding Martin took the trouble to edit a pre-recorded dedication. Together with our choice of first dance songs, so that it all went smoothly on the night. He also sent over their set list so we could make some requests. On the night, the band set-up quickly and without fuss and had a playlist on as early as they could to get our guests warmed up. Martin had a quick chat with me about timings for the evening for our cake cutting and first dance, then as soon as that was complete they went straight into their sets and had everyone up on the dance floor for the rest of the night, even finishing with a couple of encores. They were then good enough to leave a playlist running whilst they packed away. Meaning that we had music right up to the end of the evening. Everybody in the band was friendly and helpful. Particularly Martin. That’s not to mention that they are also frankly brilliant at what they do. Sues’s voice is incredible and recordings we heard before as good as they are don’t do it justice. Many guest commented on how much they enjoyed the performance. They even got the seal of approval from a few people I know who are musically hard to please. A brilliant night, enhanced by W!RED. We would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone "

"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. "

"From the first contact, Jake filled us with confidence that it was going to be a great event. His communications prior to the night were professional and allowed us to personalise the type of evening we wanted to create. The Band arrived promptly and set up with a playlist in the background suiting our preferred genre. They were helpful in changing the timings on the night to accommodate the mood of the party. The music itself was fantastic; they're a talented bunch of musicians! And they have the ability to modify the playlist, depending on their audience. Lots of our guests commented on how good the band were. All in all, value for money. And we have total confidence in recommending them. A huge 'thank you' to Jake and all the band members for helping to make our wedding party a night to remember."

"Short review to join with Becky & Alex's comments. Completely agree with their remarks. Sue's voice - wow! An eclectic range of material to suit all, my personnel favourites being Fleetwood Mac. I have been to a few weddings, never have I seen a band interact so well with an audience of various ages. Plenty of dancing throughout the 3 sets Wired played. The whole band are a credit to each other, they really did make the night special. Cannot thank all members enough for a fitting end to a great day."
