"Alan was the perfect addition to our day at Oakley Hall. When we first heard him play at the wedding fair, we knew he would create the atmosphere that we were looking for - and he really did! During the reception Alan's music was elegant and heartfelt, then during the drinks reception he added a relaxed yet sophisticated touch, with guests commenting how much they enjoyed it throughout. He was a joy to work with and made our day even more special. We would highly recommend Alan to anyones wedding day!' Thanks again. Ross"

"What a lovely man, so thoughtful, kind and respectful, he played beautifully and we were all in tears as he started up. My mum went off to the sounds that she loved so much, can’t thank him enough. "

"What a woman, what a talent. Sue played for our first dance and most of our evening and she was absolutely amazing. She made my dream become reality. We were blown away by her, and so were all of our guests. Sue, thank you, for being the absolute best, and for fitting in so smoothly with all of our plans and ideas. "

Jennie, thank you so much for the lovely review. I do love a challenge and your first dance certainly had me putting in the hours practice! So glad it went well for you, all the best for a very happy future together. Sue x

"Rory and his jazz quartet were fantastic and helped to add a bit more elegance to the evenings proceedings. They were very professional and knew exactly what suited the mood, which made my job easier and the evening was a great success. Thank you again."

"Absolutely excellent. With minimum instructions did everything we wanted and more. Really lovely at the end how he marched off playing the pipes. Very poignant. Arrived everywhere he needed to be prepared and ready. Really couldn't have been better. The last thing you need is to be stressing at a funeral and to have someone know exactly what they are doing and when to do it was a god send. Was really lovely performance. My mum would have loved it."

"Myself and Akshay would like to thank you for performing at our civil ceremony at Moor Park. All our guests loved the music and I especially want to thank you for playing 'Gerua' which I know wasn't originally in your repertoire, but for you to learn that for our big day was phenomenal and you did full justice to the song. We would definitely recommend you to others and thank you once again for giving our wedding that extra special touch. "

"Adam came and entertained my family and friends a few ago.. although a good percentage of the audience did not have a great knowledge of modern country music EVERYONE really enjoyed his music.. I would highly recommend Adam for any event.. you won’t be disappointed! We have booked him again for next year ?"

"I was arranging a special 'covid-safe' 80th birthday surprise and was asked to find a tenor who would be prepared to serenade a very special lady in her garden. I listened to/watched around 50 singers on the internet until I came across Vasili and knew he was just perfect! Vasili was very good at responding to all manner of queries and came up with suggestions as to a suitable repertoire. On the day itself, the weather was absolutely terrible, but Vasili was a real trooper and a consummate professional, not just giving a great performance whilst the heavens opened, but making it a truly touching and personal experience as well. I would highly recommend booking Vasili if you want to give your event that extra sparkle of flair and brilliance! Thank you Vasili!"

Hi Tracey, Thank you so much for your feedback of yesterday’s performance! I'm delighted to hear you were happy with everything, and I've passed on your kind feedback to Pete & Sophie. I’m really happy to hear you’re interested in booking me next year and please do feel free to liaise with Pete & Sophie as and when you’d like to decide on a date. And meanwhile please do pass [agency's] details onto any of your friends and family to contact them if they’d like an upbeat Ibiza soundtrack to their evening! Meanwhile, I would like to once again thank you for the opportunity, and I send you our warmest wishes. Thanks, Rory

"Constance played the piano for our wedding ceremony: background music as guests arrived and then songs for important points in the ceremony. Constance played beautifully and is very talented. She was friendly and easy to communicate with when organising our big day and was very helpful with making suggestions with our music arrangements, making it much less stressful. I would definitely recommend her. :) "

"Thanks for booking the Rory Duffy Jazz Quartet, I have used them on 3 separate occasions and every time they have performed brilliantly! The buzz they have created in the airport has been fantastic and the quality of their performance have drawn in considerably large audiences. They have been hugely adaptable which was evident to see when they performed jazz style Christmas carols! I will definitely be booking them again this year."

Hi Nina, This is great - and thanks for chasing that up for me, really appreciate it! Thanks also for your part in organising - look forward to working with them again soon. Cheers Rory

"We had Dave play at our wedding back in 2017 and he was absolutely amazing. Nothing is ever a problem and every song choice Dave had it in the bag. We really wanted a Ibiza theme for the Sax and he was more than happy to check out and play along with the dance tunes we wanted. Our guests loved him!! On Saturday I booked him again for my 30th birthday party. He played most of the night along to every song. He really got the party started and I have had constant feedback since on how amazing he was. Best Sax player in town. Thank you so much."
