Fierce Weddings
"When scouting for a wedding band for our big day, my little sister suggested that I check these guys out, as she had seen them live a few times across various venues in the South East. She knew the brief and by god did these guys meet (and exceed) it. We wanted some class music and a vibe that everyone would remember, not just another generic wedding set. Fierce mild clearly do NOT do generic 🤣 far from it!
Ailise and Andrew were there from 1pm until 1am the following morning, going from truly beautiful acoustic sets for our ceremony (bringing many tears to many eyes) and drinks reception to rocking it up with the main band for our evening celebrations before ending the night with a cracking DJ set. These guys literally did not stop all day! I got to really enjoy my “father-daughter” dance as Andrew, Ailise and the band learned “sweet child of mine” by Guns and Roses especially for the occasion. To say my dad was surprised (and delighted) would be putting it mild.
What made it even more special was having several friends and family members come up to ask who the band were and how they had never had such a good time dancing at a wedding (and considering it was blistering hot that day in the marquee, I will take that as a massive compliment).
If you are looking for a band with some real soul, real edge, then look no further! Would recommend them 100%!
Can we do it all again? 🥹"
JM Saxophone
"John played our wedding dinner entrance and throughout the meal, and he was absolutely brilliant, He had our guests up out of their seats, cheering and celebrating as we made our entrance with our bridal party. His music created such a lovely atmosphere and made the whole meal feel so special. We had so many lovely comments from our guests about him too.
John was so friendly and professional from start to finish, and we really couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Thank you so much, John, for being part of our special day and helping make it one to remember.
We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a saxophonist for their wedding"
8-Bit Funk
"Big thank you to 8-Bit for putting on a great show. The band were super accommodating, really well organized, very communicative. They did a great job of playing background jazz at a birthday and of course all the nostalgic gaming hits. Both young(5-15) and old(40 yr olds) loved it"
Barrio Cubano
