Review Centre: Wedding Ceremony Musicians

"Booking Bollywood Strings was a dream fulfilled as I always wanted a live instrument band playing on my wedding. It was surreal walking in to my favourite song playing from my childhood favourite film that is a classic Bollywood love story. The guest thoroughly enjoyed listening to them during the canapés and it set the tone of the wedding day so perfectly! I would definitely recommend to anyone thinking of booking for their special day. The variety of songs that they play means there’s something for everyone to enjoy."

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An unforgettable soundtrack for our wedding! Choosing Voice of Wave for our wedding was one of the BEST decisions we made. We are a young couple celebrating in Italy, and we wanted two things: a romantic ceremony and an epic party. They delivered both perfectly. The ceremony was beautifully acoustic, emotional and elegant, with romantic ballads and also classic Italian songs that made everything feel even more magical. The violin during the recessional was pure goosebumps, such a special, unforgettable moment. During dinner, they created the perfect background music, never intrusive, always classy, and they even provided microphones for speeches, which made everything smooth and stress-free. And then… the party 🔥 Later in the night the DJ set took over and the vibe completely changed. Ffrom elegant to wild fun! We danced non-stop, even to reggaeton, and the energy was AMAZING. A special mention to Carol: super sweet, always available, incredibly kind and professional. And Marco is simply unbelievable — he adapts to everything and can literally play any song you ask for. Voice of Wave understood us, our vision, and our international vibe. Romantic when needed, fun when it was time to celebrate. Exactly what we dreamed of. Incredible band, incredible people. Highly recommended, 100%! Thank you for making our wedding unforgettable."

"Bruno is a fantastic musician, with incredible availability and friendliness! We were lucky enough to find Bruno at Gig Heaven, and we couldn't be happier with our choice for our wedding. We opted for the duo with cello and it was sublime! And they did all the songs we dreamed of having at our wedding. I recommend them 200%!"

"I hired Matthew for my 50th birthday party and am so pleased that I did - he was exactly what I was looking for! I selected him on the basis of the quality that I saw on the website, and felt that he was even better in person. Being somewhat fussy, I was apprehensive about finding someone who could meet my needs, but Matthew suggested that we had a meeting before my event and we chatted through my ideas and preferences - as well as the things that I did not want! I came away feeling that he understood me and that we had connected, which was incredibly reassuring, and I was not let down on the night. Matthew is an incredibly talented singer and guitarist - recreating songs in a way that not only reflects the original, but often putting his own twist onto them in a way that keeps them fresh and interesting. His use of the loop pedal was particularly impressive! It was of note that so many of my guests commented on how good he was - they had a great time and really got into the swing of things as he gradually turned up the tempo and got everyone dancing. In doing so, he took requests, interacted with the crowd, showed a good sense of humour and came across as a fun, friendly and approachable guy. He played a wide range of songs, all of which reflected our discussion beforehand, with a great balance between those you might expect at a party and some 'surprises' that may be less common but worked equally well - if not better! I would definitely hire Matthew again, and would recommend him to pretty much anyone: he has a list of nearly 500 songs to choose from, and has a strict policy of not having a 'usual' setlist - instead preferring to engage in a discussion of what you'd like, so would be able to cater for all tastes - even mine! Thanks so much Matthew - you turned a great night into an incredible night!"

Thank you so much for your review Ian - I was genuinely touched! I’m so happy that you enjoyed yourself, especially as I know how anxiety-inducing it can be to organise your own birthday party and feel responsible for everyone’s fun! I loved the atmosphere created by your guests and it was such a pleasure to see you and your friends all dancing together. I hope I can play for you again one day! - Matt

"Thank you to Riccardo and Dario for providing such fabulous entertainment for our family dinner at a private venue in Northern Italy. Working with the Uncles in the lead up to the event was made easy with their quick communication, especially with the different timezone, being based in Australia. We were able to create a song list and workout timings for the evening. They arrived with plenty of time for set up prior to our dinner and were dressed well, according to the occasion. They were also able to take into consideration and be sensitive to the historic castle we were in and its policy around entertainment, distance from walls etc. We absolutely loved their voices, music, humour and interaction, which was enjoyed by everyone, considering different generations attending. Thank you so much Natalie "

"We were searching for a pianist for events in Siena for a private celebration, and we are extremely happy we chose this service. From the first contact, everything felt very professional and well-organized. He understood immediately the type of atmosphere we wanted: elegant, refined, and never intrusive. As a pianist in Siena, he clearly has a lot of experience with different types of events. He helped us select the right musical style for the evening, offering a mix of classical, jazz, and modern pieces that worked perfectly for our guests. On the day of the event, he arrived on time and handled everything independently. The setup was quick and discreet, and within minutes the space was filled with beautiful piano music. The difference between live music and a simple playlist was immediately noticeable. Throughout the evening, the music was always perfectly balanced. It created a warm and sophisticated environment without interfering with conversations. Several guests commented on how much they appreciated the live performance, saying it made the event feel more exclusive. If you need a pianist for weddings or events in Siena, this is a fantastic choice. Reliable, elegant, and highly skilled."

"Sara e Giovanni li ho conosciuti vedendo i loro video online, quasi per caso. Li ho contattati ed oltre ad essere stati gentilissimi mi hann seguita risolvendo tutti i dubbi che avevo sulla scelta dei brani per la Cerimonia in chiesa. Quando poi, il giorno del matrimonio li ho sentiti cantare cantare l'Ave Maria di Schubert in coppia sono scoppiata in lacrime: Voci di altri tempi e grande gusto nel fraseggio e nell'interpretazione. Li consiglio a tutti! Grazie ancora a Sara e Gio ! Ci sentiremo sicuramente per i prossimi eventi."

"We booked Jan for our wedding in February 2025. From start to finish it was so easy to organise. Jan was absolutely fantastic. He was very professional and up to date with the music we asked for. He had everyone up dancing. Really made our wedding special and something we won’t forget."

"Hey Rory. Hope youre doing well mate... Just wanted to give you a quick message just to say thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, so much, for yesterday... The performance you gave at our wedding ceremony was just absolutely amazing. The amount of people who came up to me and said your saxophonist was just out of this world. Honestly, it was amazing. And were so grateful that you did such a wonderful job... The fact that you could go on for so long / as long as you did... This is going to sound a bit weird but you have some amazing lungs. So, just wanted to give you a quick note here. I saw an e-mail from you. I will definitely write a review as well. But I just wanted to leave you this quick note to say thank you so much for your performance and you were just absolutely terrific. Well done again. You really made our day. So happy I hired you. I really am. And, who knows? If we ever do another ceremony in the future... I know one of my friends is interested in contacting you, thats for sure. But if I ever do anything and I need a saxophonist, youre right at the top of my list, for sure. Thanks again for your great performance on Saturday as well as your wonderful comments on our wedding, too._We are more than happy to leave a review for you especially after the joy you brought us and our guests on mine and Rachels special day:_What can we say about Rory, the music he provided throughout our wedding meal was quite simply outstanding! The ability he has not only with a saxophone but with a flute is amazing, he is supremely talented with these instruments and had our guests thoroughly entertained with his seamless performance. For over 2 hours he treated us all to a wonderful playlist of songs, we even joked that he must have the most incredible lungs to be able to go on for such a long time!_We also have to thank Rory for the patience he had in fulfilling our request to perform at our wedding, due to Covid we had to reschedule our wedding 2 times over the course of nearly 2 years since we first booked him so were so thankful that he never let us down. We would highly recommend Rory to anyone looking for someone to provide a musical performance at any event, from our experience hell provide you with a truly memorable experience that people will always talk about! Again we cant thank you enough for helping to make our day everything we dreamed of, as we said any other event we do where we need music then well be sure to contact you!_All the best,_Kel & Rachel Married October 2021 We can only thank you because it was a big part of the wedding, and it was just beautiful how good you were in regards to the saxophone. We are so very, very happy. Hope you are happy, too. We will definitely keep you in mind if we do any other big event, for sure. You will be one of the first names we remember. Thats for sure. Hopefully, our paths will cross again soon. Just want to wish you the greatest of luck in all your future endeavours."

"Adrian und Jörn lieferen eine gigantische Performance ab. Ich durfte sie selbst schon mehrfach live erleben und war jedesmal aufs neue begeistert. Die Zwei harmonieren perfekt, die Kombination aus den richtigen Beats und der live-saxophonie bringt jede Feier auf ein neues Level. Sobald sie loslegen, beleibt keiner mehr sitzen und die Decke fämgt an zu schwitzen "

"Scott was amazing from the time he arrived and set up his equipment to the end when he packed his gear and left. His voice and guitar were playing were incredibly polished. Our guests were impressed and are still talking about Scott. I would definitely employ him again. "
