5/5 from 203 reviews
Photo of Harp - Amelia Tokarska Harp - Amelia Tokarska "Amelia played the harp during our corporate reception, adding an elegant touch to the evening. Her music created a welcoming atmosphere as guests arrived and enjoyed their drinks. We particularly appreciated how the live performance complemented the event while allowing conversation to flow comfortably. We would happily recommend Amelia for corporate events and private celebrations."

Everyone that met you had nothing but good things to say, and you giving us extra time for the city center was really really appreciated. (As was the plaid; legend) We genuinely hope we meet again, your vibe was spectacular. Talk to you soon man. Thanks again" Based in Florence, Tuscany, Italy (455 miles from Budapest) 29th September 2026 Ciaran & Guilaine - Wedding in Tuscany Photo of The Waistcoats The Waistcoats "When searching for a band for our wedding in Italy we came across The Waistcoats and after watching many videos and reading through all the reviews we made contact. The first email from Paul immediately put us at ease and we decided to book them. Throughout the lead up to the wedding, we had a few different requests (speakers for ceremony and microphones for speeches) all which were agreed to with no problem at all! On the day they arrived with plenty of time and had a calm presence and were easy to deal with. They are very experienced and knew what to do without having to be told, which kept us super relaxed. For both parts of the day The Waistcoats played aperitifs and after dinner. They understood what to play and created a fantastic atmosphere. All our guests did not stop dancing even during the aperitifs there was dancing. We also pushed forward the first dance and this was no problem. We had lots of ‘experienced’ wedding guests who exclaimed: “best wedding band ever”! And we also truly believe that too! We can’t thank you enough for everything you did to make our day so very special! Thank you! Ciaran and Charlie" Based in Rome, Latium, Italy (502 miles from Budapest) Ciaran and Charlie - Private Wedding Photo of Devil in the Kitchen Devil in the Kitchen "Fantastic band, playing fantastic music. Devil in the Kitchen has to be one of the best bands touring Germany Their interpretation of Scottish / Irish music is unique Would recommend them for any trad. event.
