Photo of Gajè Gipsy Swing Gajè Gipsy Swing "Nothing but compliments for this band! They created such a lively vibe for our welcome party, no request was an issue, even played on in the dark when we had lighting issues. Our day was a whirlwind of activity as we arrived and organised everything for our 3 day event but it was so lovely that our welcome party was exactly what we had imagined thanks to them." Based in Bologna, Emilia-Romagna 9th October 2026 Kelly - Welcome party Photo of Glance Up Glance Up "Wonderful I discovered them online purely by chance and was pleasantly impressed. Beyond the kindness and professionalism shown by Simone—our initial point of contact—they made our wedding anniversary unique and engaging like no other. I should mention that we have worked in the wedding catering industry for years, and never—I repeat, never—have I come across a group like this. Fantastic live music that managed to get us involved right from the very start of the evening; I am eternally grateful to you for making this special occasion even more unique." Based in Catania, Sicily 17th September 2026 Elisa - Wedding music for cerimony and reception Photo of Mariachi México Mariachi México "We chose mariachi México for the aperitif and DJ for the reception. Exciting and engaging!! Thank you for making our wedding more magical and fun."

A trio full of energy, smiling, communicative" Translated from Italian Based in Milan, Lombardy 22nd May 2026 Chiara - Event Photo of Just FM Dixie Band Just FM Dixie Band "We had the absolute pleasure of having FM Dixie perform at our daughter’s wedding in Italy. They were outstanding! Their music and entertainment was such a highlight for the day for the entire group. This is how they were used throughout the day for our event: • Greeting the shuttle vans with wedding guests as they all arrived at the Castello • Escorting the group up from the drop off location across the path and across the drawbridge to the Castello • Entertaining guests during a brief pause for prosecco until it was time to escort guests to the ceremony location (Castello terrace) • Following the ceremony, escorting guests from the terrace to the location for the aperitifs/welcome buffet (opposite end of the Castello by the pool) • Music throughout the aperitifs/welcome buffet for a couple of hours. • Escorting guests when it was time from the location by the pool up to the Castello courtyard for dinner FM Dixie were fantastic in the quality of their music and in how well they entertain, adapt and engage with the wedding guests! They exceeded our expectations in all respects. Thank you to the wonderful FM Dixie quintet that added so much magic to our event!" Based in Siena, Tuscany 5th November 2025 Michael Miller - Wedding Photo of Swing Groupe de Musique Swing Groupe de Musique "Francesco and his band were amazing! It was so magical having them play for our Tuscan wedding celebrations. They created the perfect ambience and played beautifully! We couldn’t be happier and they made our day very special and memorable! Great communication, wonderful performance- we’d highly recommend them for any occasion. Thank you so much!"
