Review Centre: Wedding Bands

"Thank-you all very much for making the slightly longer trip to Ripon than you normally would for a gig. The two sets were just outstanding, a great mix and even a few Xmas classics. Debbie's powerful vocals had the 100+ guests blown away. The best band the mess has had. We will be using you again I am sure."

"Rajeev, I and both our families would really like to thank Shama, Nimesh, Chirag & 515 crew for the amazing performance at our wedding celebration on 30th April 2016. We were nervous about the evening itself and how it would pan out but Shama and her team really made it the most memorable night. I booked Shama and 515 crew without having seen them perform before but can honestly say it was the best decision I made. Right from the time of booking, Shama was the easiest person to approach and deal with and conversations with her were so supportive and comforting which made a real difference when planning a wedding. We didn't have to provide any direction, the group are so versatile and did an incredible job, playing a huge range of songs from old classics to new to English. They kept all the guests entertained and by the end of the night, family and friends were on the dance floor enjoying themselves. We have since received so many compliments and many family and friends are looking to book Shama and 515 crew for their own events which is a testament to the outstanding job they did. We cannot thank Shama and the team enough for everything they did to make our wedding celebration an unforgettable night. We look forward to seeing you perform again soon! - Reena and Rajeev"

"Well, you truly are Songbirds. We are so happy that you came and sang for us at my Mum's 90th birthday party. I can't tell you enough how much she and all the guests enjoyed it, my mum was over the moon. You stole the show with your harmonies and it was so lovely that people got up to dance. My mum said that every now and then when she looked at you and listened, she felt 19 again and back to her days singing and dancing in the halls of wartime Britain. She is still talking about it now! "

"Station2Station played during our Parish Easter Party. Some of the older parishners said they had not danced in years but these guys had everyone on the dance floor. What a fantastic atmosphere due in part, to the effort that the band went to, to involve their audience! Fantastic communication from start to finish - friendly and professional. We have been asked to make sure that they come to play for us again - so what better recommendation could we give! Thank you so much for making our Easter Celebration an event to remember 😁👏"

"My wife & I recently hired Olly's House of Jazz for our wedding. We knew we were in for a good time when guests were itching to dance, just from hearing the band's sound check! Their playing was immaculate and they really knew how to light up the room, every single guest was either dancing (myself included) or they were tapping along from their seats. We could not have asked for a better band to play on our big day. I would also like to touch upon how responsive, patient and accommodating Olly was during the lead up to the day, agreeing not only to play multiple songs that I requested, but also learning a song for the first dance, which was so good, it has tainted my love for the original. All in all, it was a pleasure to have Olly and his band at our wedding and I wholly recommend them."

"Kiki and her ‘Mumager’ are absolutely wonderful. Nothing too much trouble for our wedding. We had Kiki sing at the ceremony and then 2 sets after at the drinks reception joined by a sax player. Our requests were met with enthusiasm and excitement, great communication and what a voice. Lots of people commented on her extraordinary vocals. So pleased we found her on hitched."

"We hired W!red for an 80`s themed 50th birthday party. They were outstanding in all respects. Sue has got a sensational voice and she created a great buzz in the room. We have had so many compliments on the band. W!red were great to deal with. They had a really wide choice of songs, and put together a set list that started the evening with a bang and really kept the energy high. They even helped us out with some impromptu karaoke and Sue was great keeping the singers on track. Communication and organisation were brilliant. booking was really easy and everything was very clear, they were quick to respond and did exactly what they said they would do. We can’t wait to find another excuse to book them."

"Dear Anne, Thank you for arranging and leading the orchestra. I thought the orchestra sounded marvellous - The highlight for me was the Hebrides Overture - what a great way to start the concert. As usual you put together an excellent group of players who are generous of spirit and lovely to work with. Thank you. All the best. Martin"
