Matt Denison Music "We were incredibly fortunate to have Matt as the musician for our wedding in France! From start to finish, he went above and beyond—not only performing but also helping to set up all the sound for our ceremony and ensuring the musical setup for the entire day was flawless. His immense talent and infectious energy got the party started and kept everyone dancing all night long. Our guests haven’t stopped raving about his performance! Matt brought a magical touch to our special day, and we wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a truly unforgettable musical experience." Based in Morzine, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France (27 miles from Genève) Drew and Mila Gettings - Weedding

NoNi Trio "NoNi Trio gave a wonderful, graceful, and elegant performance at our wedding. Their music created exactly the warm, sophisticated atmosphere we had hoped for, and their set was one of the most memorable parts of our celebration. They were exceptionally professional, friendly, kind, and accommodating throughout the planning process. In advance of the wedding, they coordinated directly with our DJ and sound engineer to ensure that all sound-equipment requirements were sorted smoothly. They also discussed the setlist with us clearly and thoughtfully, including many of our favourite classics by Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole, Sarah Vaughan, Peggy Lee, Louis Armstrong, and more. They went above and beyond by working with a friend of ours—a backing vocalist and songwriter—who had composed a song especially for us. NoNi Trio helped incorporate her performance into their set, making the moment feel especially personal and meaningful. It was an absolute pleasure working with NoNi Trio from start to finish. We would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for beautiful, high-quality live jazz for a wedding or special event." Translated from French Based in Lyon, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France (70 miles from Genève) 20th August 2026 Joyce Chow & Justin Tsui - Private Wedding

Krystal Live Band "Krystal Live Band performed for our 20th wedding anniversary and created exactly the right atmosphere. Their performance made the celebration a complete success, leaving us and all our guests with wonderful memories. We recommend them without hesitation." Based in Lyon, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, France (70 miles from Genève) 3rd August 2026 Berger
