Last Minute Musicians Reviews

"Wow, wow, wow! These guys are incredible! We booked the Embassy band for 2 parts of our wedding - first a sax and a keyboard for the wedding ceremony itself and then a 6-piece for the evening reception. Luke was fabulous during the organisation process, with excellent communication and very accommodating with our special requests for particular songs that the group had not performed before. He very much made us feel at ease that everything would go smoothly. The sax and keys at the church were brilliant - they learned a new piece for my entry music, played beautifully during the service and for the register signing, then rocked our exit music! Then the evening reception….this blew our mind! From start to finish the energy of this group was out of this world! Their three vocalists complimented each other perfectly and they were so engaging with the guests. The music was on point with not a note out of place and their sound guy worked hard to make sure everything sounded perfect. The range of music they performed meant that there was something for everyone (every guest commented on how amazing these guys are!) and they absolutely nailed our first dance song. Thank you Embassy Band for making our day extra special! Alina & Stephen, Wedding at The Compleat Angler in Marlow – 27th August 2022"

"Phil - I would just like to again pass on our appreciation for playing at our wedding. It was an unbelievable day which was topped off by your amazing & beautiful performance. We were blown away when we first heard you guys and the same can be said of the reaction from our guests. I can't wait to hear it back! If you want to add that WOW!! factor to your special day North West String Quartet are a must. Sarah - We'd both like to thank you all for your impressive performance on Friday, you really were the highlight of the day with so many guests complimenting you. It was fantastic to hear you while all the guests were outside mingling in the sun, the day would not have been the same without you, you had such a big impact in making our day perfect and we really can't thank you enough."

"Thank you all so much for your amazing performance on Saturday evening, which was everything I could have hoped for! Your music was brilliant, got everyone up dancing and I can’t tell you how many people told me afterwards 'how brilliant the 1920s band were’. As soon as you played your first song I knew we’d struck gold! It couldn’t have been more perfect given the whole Gatsby theme and everyone so dressed up, so thank you all so much. You may be interested to know that we raised an astonishing £7,000 on the night! With just 96 people in the room…amazing! Thanks again Matthew and I'll not hesitate to recommend you if anyone should ask me for a fabulous 20’s Jazz Band!"

"Florian & Ezio were fantastic on our wedding day! They added a lovely atmosphere to the ceremony. They even learned a special request for us, which meant a lot. Many of our guests commented on how talented they were – we couldn’t have asked for better!"

"Now the wedding is over, and the honeymoon a distant memory, I am now getting round to thanking the key people that made our day so special, and you are top of our list! All our guests said how perfectly you set the tone for the ceremony to come, and from the moment the door was opened and I heard you play ‘Have I told you lately’ I was walking on air. We were blessed with sunshine for drinks on the terrace, and with your beautiful melodies floating and mingling with our friends you made it truly magical. As if the atmosphere around the dining table wasn’t enough, you lifted it into a different dimension, which flowed in and out of conversation and laughter. We both feel honoured that you were able to bless our day with your natural grace and exquisite playing. "

"The most perfect live music for our wedding! Vicki played DJ/Sax at our wedding in June 2026 and she was our favourite wedding vendor! She was very responsive to emails and was far better organised than we were (thankfully!). It felt like we were collaborating together for the wedding music and she had some great ideas for the reception entrance (which was a blast!), DJing through the reception and then Sax/DJ in the evening. We had so many compliments from guests on her sax playing and the energy she brought to the party - it was one of the funnest dancefloors we've ever been on and a number of guests have said the same! She also obliged us with both an indie music set and an Australian music set, to keep all our guests happy. The photobooth run by her husband was also a very welcome addition and has created lots of fun memories! We would highly, highly recommend Vicki to all."

"The Swans were amazing and really made the whole day. We had a few hiccups sorting out our wedding and had to do some last minute re-planning but Larissa was brilliant and really willing to adapt - given how stressful wedding planning can be this was worth its weight in gold. We were so pleased we could make something work and it really did make the difference. Larissa is a hugely talented singer who has a massive set list and the vocal skills to match. We and so many of our guests felt having them there really made the whole wedding party pop and get people in the right groove. 100% recommend! "

"We booked Partyzone after my (now) wife seen them at a wedding fare. I had a listen to their demo cd and was sold on them straight away. Come the wedding night and they where even more amazing in real life. Before they got on stage to perform they went out of their way to help an amateur band we also had playing (my wife's teenage cousin and friends). They even borrowed them some equipment to get them through. They where very accommodating and even though we agreed and paid for 2 x 45 slots, on the night when a few things had overran we asked them to start a little later than agreed and do the full 90 minutes without the break, which they happily agreed to do. Once on stage they had our guests (and ourselves) gripped. Their energy on stage rubs off on to everyone in the room and even though I can't/don't dance I found myself on the dance floor on several occasions. Partyzone are an extremely professional band who absolutely love what they do. They have a wide variety of songs that span the decades. We would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone for any function, big or small. They were a massive part in making our wedding as amazing as it was and we would like to thank them for that. "
