Unbelievable Wedding Big Band/Orchestra
"I have been meaning to message you directly also to thank you. What you produced the night of our wedding was nothing short of magical - and I do not say this lightly.
I am very happy to hear the band enjoyed the evening - I think their enjoyment and energy showed through their music.
The feedback we have had from guests is overwhelming, particularly that the band and the singer (I don't remember his name) was the best they have ever heard at a wedding.
You guys nailed the performance. I am so happy that we decided to do a live version, you could not have gotten the same energy and vibe with just a recording / original version.
Your two sets were also perfect. There were a few times that we all stopped in the marquee to listen and appreciate the music, particularly My Way - I remember looking around and quite a few people were singing along!
I think another sign of a success of a wedding is the number of people on the dance floor, and there was not an empty space during the second set. The amount of people of all ages dancing was a true highlight for me as we wanted this to be a wedding that everyone would enjoy - not just us."
Ivan Saxy & DJ
"Amazing! He played at our Wedding. It was magical. Outside the church Ivan played Disney songs as requested, he is a true professional and great musician!"
Laila Prieto
"Laila was outstanding! She was super responsive and helped me with details and planning for a surprise proposal on short notice. She was kind, reliable, professional, and punctual throughout the whole process. I would highly recommend booking her for your special moment. I couldn't be more happy with her services."
Cuarteto Moon - Barcelona String Quartet
"Wow. Where do I begin???
Cuarteto Moon were my first booking when we decided to get married, I researched and found them online and honestly was blown away with their sound. There was no questions asked that I wanted this string Quartet to play at my wedding and honestly they delivered 10 / 10!!!
Throughout the planning process they made this so easy for me by sending over a spreadsheet for me to fill in with my favourite songs to play during the ceremony, my walk down the aisle song and a few other favourites that we just had to have and no ask was big enough for them :)
They played the songs I wanted so beautifully we had so many compliments from our guests and they looked so professional during the wedding too, which was amazing. You guys are honestly so talented and the best at what you do, I cannot wait to receive my professional wedding photos so I can share your sound and pics across my socials. Thank you so so much for bringing the emotions I wanted on my weddings to life.
During the ceremony I was getting ready so I wasn’t down in the courtyard where you were playing, but I had my window open upstairs and I was listening with tears in my eyes. All of my favourite songs were being played so beautifully for our guests and it really was for me at the moment where I stopped and took everything in because I wanted this feeling on my wedding and I had just that because of you. Music means so much to me and to hear these songs being played live at my wedding by such a talented group was exactly what I wanted, I cannot thank you enough from the bottom of my heart.
